calum semple is a professor of outbreak medicine at the university of liverpool, and is part of the sagescientists who advise the government. earlier he gave his response to number 10 saying that the the measures had been carefully designed "so that we can ease the burdens of lockdown while expecting to keep that r below one". it does not fill me with a huge degree of confidence. the letter are tells you about the increasing rate or the decreasing rate, it does not reflect the number of cases in the community —— the r number. we know we still have 2000 proven cases a day and that is because we have limited testing, the reality is it is probably closer to 8000 cases a day, so we still have a fairly high levels of transmission in the community and we are making several changes to lockdown, a period where we have excellent weather and people are desperate to get outside, and confidence in some of these restrictions has been eroded. we are ina restrictions has been eroded. we are in a precarious position and i think having just a little bit more time letting the test, trace and isolate proce

let's get more now we are joined by karen maguire football finance lecturer at the university of liverpool carrick tell us is this enough to keep some of these clubs from going bust. i think it would certainly be a major contribution if we take a look at match dot com which is going to be lost for a club such as dortmund that is a real worth around about 2000000 euros per match but i think for the smaller clubs it becomes slightly less significant i think the big fear among teams in the bundesliga would be that should they be unable to fulfil their fixtures then potentially a huge refund would be to you to the t.v. companies who have bought matches for the whole season and that could have been the tipping point between whether clubs could survive or continue to exist let's talk a little bit more about the t.v. rights money which is now a huge stream income stream for these clubs how significant has it become and could it become even more in the future in this new time of social distancing. well presently it's worth just over the blenders league of domestic dailies work just over a 10000000

calum semple is a professor of 0utbreak medicine at the university of liverpool, and is part of the sagegovernment. he told me it is quite "risky" to ease lockdown in certain parts of the country. we've got a complex situation where in the north of england particularly, a couple of weeks behind the curve of london, we've still got in each region of the north—west, the north east and the midlands, each region is having round about 100 admissions a day to hospital, so that is high. that is very high, actually. it gives you about 400 cases per hundred thousand. if we make multiple releases of the lockdown at the same time, we won't know what is causing the inevitable jump in time, we won't know what is causing the inevitablejump in cases. we don't have an established test, track and a silly process to follow these people up. —— test, track and isolate process. we could be taking the lead of a pot that is still bubbling in places and risks overflowing. politicians have a very difficultjob viewing the good of the whole nation, but we are any difficult position where a large portion of the cou

is peter king didn't he is a professor of clinical psychology at the university of liverpool because of course psychology is very important in all of this what is it do you think that's driving people to these anti lockdown protests i'm not just talking about people being upset about staying inside but i mean psychologically speaking. but i. think your 1st point is is really well made i mean the evidence seems to be that people are coping reasonably well with the lock down not only the survey that your previous correspondent was talking about but i think surveys in the u.k. and indeed the reluctance of people to put their children at risk of going to back to school too early indicates that people are necessarily being psychologically pressured by the locked and there are pressures for children who have abusive parents for people in abusive relationships and then a clearly pressures to people with preexisting mental health problems there are pressures but i think that we are starting to be aware of the fact that the pandemic and the government's response to the pandemic has a major soc

we live in collaboration with colleagues in the university of liverpool and found last little kerching smart degrees where our climate is much warmer and there is much more u.v.-b. exposure all year around provided you are generous and not covered and still covering a rally when critics and risk killing then 80000000000 deal i will probably fall right interestingly mortality rates from congress are much lower significantly lower than the announced backlash a chill of 35 degrees of interest and where we are proposing some one of the explanations for that maybe there isn't a lot of in the local hearts ok very briefly rose because we pushed a time here we're talking about u.v.b. which is sunlight exposure we're not talking about u.v. c. which is what president from was talking about 3 to 4 weeks ago when he was talking about sunlight killing the virus that's a whole different conversation because e b c means being standing by the sun and you would get fried to a crisp c. i know that several 100 we don't get enough to really say in our atmosphere anyway no this is really being nice this is

a professorfrom the university of liverpool has said he thinks the decision has been made politicallyons that ministers did not take them without warning and without risk. violent demonstrations have broken out in several cities in the united states, in protest at the death of an unarmed black man in police custody. in minneapolis, protesters have defied a curfew and buildings have been set alight, while georgia has declared a state of emergency. our correspondent barbara plett—usher has just sent this report from minneapolis. minneapolis is under curfew but the city is still burning. outrage over the police killing of an unarmed black man has consumed people here forfour black man has consumed people here for four days with st protests, also arson and looting. the state deployed the national guard to restore order and local officials moved unusually quickly to charge a police officer with third—degree murder and manslaughter. he is the one individual kneeling on that neck of george floyd fought nearly nine minutes while george floyd called out again and again that he could not believ

liverpool who voiced similar concerns. earlier this month, the government said plans of schools potentially reopening to more pupils at the start ofjune. cambridge universityaid smaller teaching groups may continue in person, provided social distancing can be maintained. the university stressed it will keep the situation under review, and in line with official advice. in the us, president trump has been widely criticised by health experts, after stating that he was taking an anti—malarial drug to protect himself against the virus. regulators have warned there's no evidence that it provides any protection from covid—19 and may indeed cause heart problems. the president has continued his attacks on the world health organization, calling it a "puppet of beijing", which failed to hold china to account for the original outbreak. 0ur correspondent nick bryant has the latest. the white house is one of the most heavily protected buildings on the planet. guarded by secret service agents ready to take a bullet for the president. but in the midst of this viral onslaught, can they protect donald trump from himself? last night, he happily made a stunning admission that

we're also joined by calum semple, a professor of child health and outbreak medicine at the university of liverpooline and the next minute they can't smell the coffee. could that be an early sign you might be getting coronavirus or indeed have it? yes, we think it is one of the earlier signs. typically, patients will develop this before other symptoms while they are still well enough to carry on with normal work and pass on infection and that is why it is so important to pick these patients up at an early stage. professor semple, to come to you, andi professor semple, to come to you, and i know you are listening carefully to what our other guests are saying, but i suppose the question on the change of advice, why has it taken a while for the advice to change given i believe the evidence has been quite robust over the last few weeks? there has to be an assessment of the impact of making a change like this. it is absolutely right that if you can do anything to better identify a disease and prevent transmission it should be done, but it will also lead to a rise in the number of so—called official case
