you have a temperature over 37.5 to breast the key issues you are over ringback 65 to 65 years of age you really need to be staying at home in general people should stay at home unless it's absolutely necessary if you're saying it's a restriction of movement of people but not so much on the movement of goods so there's no need to fear about running out said children that sit there at that minute this news was announced on sunday night you did have a right at this 24 markets as people try to get sent chills even though the authorities have said they shouldn't see a running out on the ground here speaking to some people this morning one woman expressed to me a concern she said i'm still not going to open my news stand tomorrow i feel an element and clearly the level of concern has risen. now this is clearly a big move a big step that italy has taken an essentially locking down the whole country what are medical professional saying about this move do they expect it to alleviate pressure on the health care system. well i think that really is a large part the motivation of the authorities as some have called these measures draconian drastic unp

of having to stay—at—home fora bit, ithink the idea of having to stay—at—home for a bit, i think that has been widely discussed for older peoplethat definitely means we will have to put some local infrastructure in place to support people over that period. some people are lucky and they will have fantastic family support nearby, but absolutely loads won't. we are going to have to come together in communities to help them get through it, i think. we are going to have to help them but that dilemma was raised with matt hancock this morning about weather, you know, if you want to go and help an elderly person in your street, or a grandparent, should you be doing that and popping round to see how they are because you might, of course, infect them? i agree with what the secretary of state said about that. you can ring the bell and then take a few steps back. you don't have to get too close to them. but is still a good idea and absolutely fine to keep in touch. the last thing older people need is to be backing off them at the moment. wejust need to be backing off them at the moment. we just need to use sensible precautions. if you ha

home or the absolute minimum that they can. we are under orders to be at home as much as possible as well. you drive around the city, and it is empty. people seem to be largely abiding by the rules to stay at home as much as possible to avoid spreading the virus further. you can go through the french quarter even at night when it is usually packed with people, and it is completely empty streets. it is kind of a little eerie. host: do the medical professionals in louisiana feel like they have what they need? what are you hearing from people in the medical industry? guest: that is the biggest concern right now. concerns about protective equipment, which a lot of hospitals say they are really concerned about running out of. frightening,more the state models predict that we could run out of ventilators sometime in the next week just with so many patients needing them. key to keeping people alive when you have serious cases of coronavirus. the governor has said that we need thousands and thousands more ventilators then we currently have on hand in louisiana. ordersbeen putting in and requesting ventilators from the federal government. in the me

important to focus on tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations than it is to focus on the people who needed to be at home because they are sick or the people that need to be at home to care for a loved one. so how do we deal with this healthcare crisis. the second thing the president didn't even mention last night is increased testing. until we have readily available testing, you have no other alternative than to close down schools so we can get the they e economy running again. if you have readily available testing so kids can go back to school. people can know whether they have it or not or if they have to quarantine. absent that, local leaders are forced to make greater generalized decisions because they have no information about how far it has spread in their communities. we stand ready to work. we will lead and govern even though the president chooses not to. >> [inaudible] there will be an agreement. >> i'm very optimistic that there will be included but that's why we are here is to make sure the american people understand how important this issue is so they let their elected leaders know and all m

at the moment when money is cheaper they're going to think about buying houses at the moment consumer confidence has essentially apart from the panic buying that we've seen collapse people are staying at home when they're not going to the supermarkets to to stock up on. necessities so this is an interesting. move by the fed one that donald trump has been calling for for of a long time one that has no been delivered but the futures market. responded by dropping a 1000 points it will be interesting to see if that is reflected when the actual markets open on monday morning. allan you talk about. my parents coming to the to the podium the vice president talking about u.s. preparedness tell us more about. well there's been concern that the u.s. hasn't got enough tests in the game that they have been very slow in responding to this that donald trump who for a very long time said to anyone once a test can get a test that was clearly not the case when we were talking about literally dozens of tests being conducted each day when other countries have been conducting hundreds of thousands if not millions while the united states says there will be no is somewhere in the region of $1900000.00 tests bef

this followed increasingly urgent calls from the government for people to stay at home. hurches are closed, and this is mothering sunday. and 110w and this is mothering sunday. and now the government is implementing even more stringent measures to protect 1.5 million people who are most at risk. effectively putting them into a 12 week lockdown. most at risk. effectively putting them into a 12 week lockdownm most at risk. effectively putting them into a 12 week lockdown. if you are one of these individuals, i understand you will be very worried and we would not have done this lightly. we are doing this because it is absolutely critical to save lives. at the same time, we will be setting out to them how we will help them, so they might be staying at home for a long time, but they should not feel alone. the 1.5 million people who will receive letters or text messages in the coming days include those who have organ transplants, or who have severe respiratory conditions, cystic fibrosis, or specific cancers. the advice is for them not to go out for 12 weeks. also, not to have

the headlines at 12:00... the health secretary warns that measures to combat coronavirus will disrupt the lives of everybody and older people and those with health conditions will be asked to stay at home. the protection of the vulnerable and elderly by asking them to stay away, to stay at home, that is in our action plan, but we do not want formally to say yet that people should do that. british companies are urged tojoin a national effort to produce more ventilators and other medical equipment at speed. supermarkets urge shoppers not to buy more than they need, saying there is enough for everyone if people are considerate. the foreign office advises against "all but essential travel" to the united states after president trump introduced a travel ban on the uk. spanish police use drones with loudspeakers to tell people to go home. the foreign office advises against all but essential travel. in france, the government orders the closure of most public places, including all cafes, restaurants, cinemas and non—essential shops. and in half an hour click will have advice on how to clean your devices to help protect yourself from coronavirus. the health secretary matt hancock has warned that

people who do not survive. again, these are the cases reported to the chinese cdc. that same data again shows that 80% of the cases there have been mild in which the people isolated at home. we have had people quarantining here at home in the bay area, and the question is you ready? the list is going to sound a lot like what you have in the earthquake kit. think nonperishables like nut butters, pastas, and grains and baby formula and enough to last two weeks and the medicine to last the duration of a quarantine which is 14 days which means prescription medication and over the counter medicine like ibuprofen and acetaminophen and cough syrup, and so it is worth mentioning repeatedly that most of the cases are mild, and present like a cold, 80%. >> yes, a lot of times, we talk about this stuff and it could be scary for a lot of people, and we want to be prepared. and be aware, but not afraid is what i tell the kids everyday. >> good advice. >> and across the bay area, the schools are taking precautions amid the fears, and the high school is closed for four days, and this is after the school leaders learn that the parent is tested and treated for coronavirus. in oakland, th

the u.k. is in lockdown for sake it's a lockdown people not a holiday still at home the longer you persist in behaving like idiots the longer this is going to continue people ignoring the key log down and treating it as a special holiday event video it's. the backlash against those who do ignore social distancing advice is also happening in rural areas of the u.k.'s some national parks have been busier than ever so locals have been telling visitors to go home helen pi of the snowdonia national park authority in wales to tell us the confusion could be down though to mixed messages from westminster i don't know whether it's a deliberate if you know ring or whether it's. the advice at the time just wasn't clear enough people and i think in last you you've had something directly impact on you and last a member of your family has been impacted on unless you specifically into isolation and i think here i don't think it hit people at that point the seriousness of the situation you know we're only reliant on on people coming to the area for the local economy. but i think it just hasn't hit people is m

the main issues facing people there. the fact that people are being told to stay—at—home. a0 million people and they are being asked to stay indoors except unless they need to go to the grocery store or to go to the grocery store or to purchase petrol or to seek emergency medical treatment or, indeed, if they work for the emergency services. but the vast majority of people simply must stay—at—home and they are unable to go to work. for many people that is the number one issue, that they are unable to make money. a lot of buyers will be on what happens in washington as senators there negotiate a $1 trillion stimulus package and part of that package is to give americans, working americans perhaps up to $1200 to help them get through the next few weeks. do people in los angeles and california think enough is being done by president trump and the white house to address these issues? there are mixed feelings on that. 0ver these issues? there are mixed feelings on that. over the last few weeks there has been a lot of negative reaction to what the white house and the trump admini

the volunteer‘s role is to help the most vulnerable people in the country who have to remain at home to avoid being infected by coronavirus. the call for 250,000 volu nteers by coronavirus. the call for 250,000 volunteers is looking to help people with their shopping, with transport, if they have a dbs qualification they can help with patient transport. i understand black cab drivers in london are hoping to be mobilised in that effect because they are more secure. also simply calling on isolated people, making a phone call and keeping in touch. proving less successful is that government's decision to allow construction workers to keep working to help the economy. but several firms say they are closing. it is extremely difficult to adhere to the government advice for workers to keep two metres apart from each other. in scotland construction has been halted. in westminster there is still no change. in the construction industry in particular a number of employers have concluded they cannot follow the public health england guidance and are choosing to close down their sites, in some case

having the convention on human rights as a backup could see care standards lowered to a dangerously low level, putting this people at risk. but was the government doing enough to make people stay at homee constantly behind the curve. we are always waiting for people not to do what we have asked them to do before we then step in and try to introduce more strict communications. and so i would beg him, will he underpin this legislation and everything else the government is doing with a much bigger, wider, louder, more comprehensive public education campaign, because right now it clearly is not getting through. approved by mps without a vote, the bill headed to the lord's, where, again, it emerged unchanged, despite the reservations of some peers. fundamentally, this bill is about buying time. you may not think it, looking at those alarming graphs charting the growth of the disease, but time can help us. with each day that passes, the science is getting better. each day, the models are more refined and improved as more data becomes available. each day brings us closer to faster, more accurate testing capabilities, and ultimately a vaccine. her majesty's loyal opposition supports this bill

the virus by staying away from other people for months. protection of the vulnerable and elderly by asking them to stay away, to stay at home, that is in ourction plan, but we do not want formally to say yet that people should do that, and the reason for that is simply this length of time that they would need to stay self isolated, stay at home, to protect themselves, it is a very big ask. it is a very long time. the scottish government says its plans for the elderly focus on reducing contact rather than complete isolation but soon families are likely to be asked to isolate together, too, if someone in a household show symptoms. engineers will be asked to produce as many ventilators as possible. the government needs more and has said it will buy as many as can be produced. there are also plans to take over beds in private hospitals if the nhs comes under too much pressure. i think this response is going to be one of the biggest challenges that our generation faces. some questions are being asked about the response, though, including about the idea immunity can be built up by protecting the most vulnerable while others get a mild illness. m

quickly in fact that some of those that were most at risk from the virus were left behind in the panic dozens of elderly and sick people were found dead at home the situation made all the more harrowing when the army had to disinfect their resting place as the army during certain visits found older people completely abandoned sometimes even dead in their bad spanish health care services fighting against collapse this is a significant problem for healthcare system this collapse which is being talked about could happen in some places while germany seems to have the spread of covert 19 under some semblance of control a quick glance to our neighbors elsewhere in europe like spain shows just how quickly the situation can degenerate and with such tragic consequences peter all of our artsy belin. ok let's have a look at the k. now because that has seen a dramatic spike in covert 900 tallit ease over the past week more than a 1000 have died more than 4 times the number this time last week the british prime minister has written a letter to the nation urging people to stay at home but after boris johnson himself tested positive for the virus i develope

from this evening, i must give the british people are very simple instruction. you must stay at homee critical thing we must do to stop the disease spreading between households, that is why people will only be allowed to leave their home for the following, very limited purposes. shopping, for basic necessities as infrequently as possible. one form of exercise a day, for example run, walk or cycle alone or with members of your household. any medical need to provide care or to help the vulnerable person. and travelling to and from work, but only where this is absolutely necessary and cannot be done from home. that is all. these are the only reasons you should leave your home. you should not be meeting friends. if your friends ask you to meet, you should say no. you should not be meeting family members who do not live in your home, you should not be going shopping, except for essentials like food and medicine. and you should do this as little as you can. and use food delivery services where you can. if you don't follow the rules, the police will have the powers to enforce them, includin

people are sick, the state home. they self quarantine. so let's unpack the math on that. we get sick, and we don't want to spread to the community, we want people to stay at home. if you are low income worker, who does not have paid sick leave, if you're facing the choice of whether to feed your children or to go to work, you will choose to feature children. that means going to work and perhaps spreading virus. so the house is proposing, is not only right in terms of what we need is public policy in the united states in terms of how we treat our workers but this a very smart way to address what is currently a very significant public health crisis in the united states of america. so again, i applaud the senator and also one more point. on the senate homeland committee which is no oversight committee, the part of the oversight, includes over opm. our two - 7 million workers now even asking the administration if they are what they are going to do to ensure because federal workers have protections they need as they do their job. and they're working on behalf of the market people, often interacting with the american public. we have yet to hear a clear plan. am

the views we used to have of what is possible and not possible. it wasfew weeks ago impossible to keep at the airport and key people at home. e were asking you slow down the pace, airplane transportation or traits to reduce carbonation, everyone was saying this is too costly for the economy, we will never do that. suddenly, within a few days, in , everybody decides to shut down everybody. i am in my apartment in paris right now. what this shows, and we see that beliefs aboutmon how the economy should be organized, what government should do and can do changes all of the time. this crisis is probably going to have a lasting impact on how people view the way we regulate in economy and what we see the prices we have developed over time. decisiontake a strong that when it comes to crisis, we [inaudible]e yet upid: let me try to pick what i took from the book. you talk about ruptures, where a lot of the inequalities are not inevitable, they are ideological choices. ideology continues until there is a rupture. you think this pandemic could be that sort of rupture that would make us rethink our ideology? thomas: could it be? yes. we

authorities but the government has made it clear that they want to work through moral suasion people must be convinced that this is the right thing to do and therefore they must stay at home actually if they're very visible model a should say people gathering at the parties in the street and that kind of thing and the police would to head into being immediately to shut them down so it remains to be seen how things work out at the coming days but i think the message is you must cooperate with us this is for everybody's good and we're all in it together what about for tourists philip can they still get to italy. that's another interesting question the government has said anyone arriving in italy will be questioned about the purpose of their visit and clearly a holiday wouldn't be a bad word coup or hell. personal recently coming into the country as i think people actually not be coming here for holidays but that if they need to visit relatives for serious reasons or they have important work to do they would still be allowed in and of course it remains to be seen whether they would be able to leave again afterwards but i think this is the assumption is that tourists in the c

the right one? asking elderly people to stay at home, that's one thing you've really got to time. explaining, so that it coincides with the period at which the epidemic is really at its peak. people start off with the best of intentions but enthusiasm at a certain point starts to flag. if you start to early and people's enthusiasm runs out at the peak, which is exactly the time we want people to do these interventions, that's not a productive way to do it. but hang on, in scotland the first minister has pushed further. mass gatherings required to be policed and require emergency ambulance cover. we advise now the cancellation, from the start of next week, of mass gatherings of 500 people or more. that is principally to protect the resilience of front line workers. and listen to this, the irish leader taking more drastic steps already. schools, colleges and childcare facilities will close from tomorrow. where possible, teaching will be done online and remotely. cultural institutions will close as well. our advice is that all indoor mass gatherings of more than 100 people and outdoo
