So the news out of london is that britains Prime Minister has spent the night in an intensive care unit with worsening 19 symptoms Boris Johnson was admitted to hospital on sunday night after being ill for more than 10 days now means the foreign secretary dominic robb has been asked to deputize web a live update in a moment after this report from originally. The news came after a day of scant information and repeated lines the Prime Ministers hospital stay was just a precaution said downing street Boris Johnson himself tweeted i went into hospital for some routine tests as im still experiencing coronavirus symptoms i mean good spirits and keeping in touch with my team as we Work Together to fight this virus and keep everyone safe but the reality was his condition was worsening later on monday doctors moved him to the intensive care unit thats in thomass hospital in london during the course of this afternoon the promise his condition worsened and on the advice of the medical team whos moved in to a Critical Care unit so in light of those circumstances the Prime Minister asked me secretary to deputize for him when necessary and driving forward the governments plans to defeat coronavirus. Support for the Prime Minister has come from across the british political spectrum and beyond terribly sad news tweeted keer starmer the new leader of the u. K. s Opposition Labor Party my thoughts are with you and your family so the brakes it negotiator Michel Barnier and from frances president micron all my support to Boris Johnson his family and the british people in this difficult moment heres a view inside one of britains covert 19 wards bournemouth on the south coast of england doctors and nurses are fighting to save lives here every day and. That. We still have to do. It in. Between getting out of the way then also having that the physical test the u. K. s patient deaths rose by 439 on monday but many more deaths are happening outside hospitals in london specialist teams of police fire and Health Services have been set up to respond to these we are anticipating about 30 percent of the mortality in london will be involving deaths within the Community Government scientists a stay at home measures do seem to be working to limit hospital admissions but its still too soon to say how much we need a good long time series of data on on all of these stages of infection in order to be able to tell what the impact or the measures that came in on the 23rd of march are going to be we its too early to tell yet when we need we need people to carry on following those instructions so that we can work out 3 weeks later what actually happens in hospitals and its still not known when the peak of coronavirus will be in the u. K. Will reach alans down to 0. Lawrence lee joining us from london 6 in the morning on tuesday it is a high lawrence i think we have to be quite blunt about this and talk about Boris Johnson health and really the chances of him making it through is there any indications about that now. Well look lets lets go through checks and balances shall we if hes 55 so hes not in the worst demographic range hes not a smoker he doesnt have any Underlying Health conditions of ours anybody knows and hes known to take a bit of exercise but tennis is cycling around westminster and of course in the hospitals and some of his which is expanding that hospital one on one so thats thats all good things again start. To be done for the city is a fairly substantial figure he weighs about 100 kilograms and thats not good in terms of virus he was working when he should have been resting as we were saying this morning thats now widely accepted the problem. And hes now in intensive care and the survival rates the people who go into intensive care. It really is blunt as thats accepted as a said that most people dont intend to carry much older than him and have existing conditions which makes it worse so its really serious im afraid and one of the things thats been really irritating the political d lobby is that downing street really hasnt been straight with the public about the seriousness of johnsons condition thats all gone that obviously Everybody Knows how serious it is. And this does pertain to the carry on as Prime Minister room is hostile that obviously is not going straight out the window because the suman he recovers he will be unable to work as Prime Minister certainly for weeks to come. And so lawrence we look to the continuity of government at the moment in the absence of a deputy Prime Minister in the u. K. The foreign secretary Dominic Roberts he effectively running the country now. Yes they have this press corps 1st minister. That they consider deputy Prime Minister as you say that was was was appointed i mean months ago frankly before any of this was on the horizon. So we had almost rob kerrys own. Cabinet between them are going to have to make some very important decisions that the next few days presumably some of the lockdown given the as you heard in that report the peak is yet to come. And that got to try to balance the extension of the law with the against economic damage opposite the causes popular frustration to stay indoors all the time in the worst thing you could imagine in the absence of a Prime Minister is that the government. Cabinet ministers started with each other and jostle for position just in case they think they might get something out of Boris Johnson the markets which would be absolutely awful. The round were told at the moment if there is one is between officials at the treasury because they dont want economic damage officials at the Health Service because they want to extend the lockdown but at the moment theyre trying to make it look as if the work. Thanks for those updates lawrence lee in london will hear from dr annie spera now who is an emergency and Critical Care physician and also a professor of Health Science and policy at mount sinai hospital she told us moving Boris Johnson to intensive care of the sensible if it is a worrying time that you be moving to critical kids back at the same time. Staying in the disease 1011. Its encouraging that hes not on a ventilator already because we would really expect to see at this stage if he was in. The other the other thing i would say that is great and not impossible that he has a 2nd reinfection which we think quite probably environment is in fact that was almost certainly responsible for you have to guess in spanish influenza and so it could easily be a secondary bacterial as far as we know it is no comorbidities. Hes. Being or pretty much any of donkey which we know that that is not necessarily a great factor and but a problem that hes not 60 which its also very protective he is however male and we do know that in americas do have was outcomes for reasons that we dont entirely understand but as you say he doesnt quite fit the profile and i think thats reason to be encouraged and the better hes not been pledged to it and that is that here very smartly to militant if you consider. That there is a risk that he may need it because the last thing he wanted to do is have to do that at the creche goal you want to be a pretty that in a controlled setting where you can injure beijing or ventilate him in a controlled manner and certainly he may know in countries that he could go on just a continuation of them who. Lets go global now and have a look at the snapshots from the Johns Hopkins university virus tracker which shows upwards of 1300000 confirmed cases all over the world in those 3 major hotspots that you see more than 270000 have recovered but the white number shows you the 74000 deaths most of them that big cluster across western europe that includes france with a rapidly growing number of dead people there in fact the country recorded its highest number of virus related deaths in a single day taking the total number to almost 1000. 00 but there are signs in other parts of the continent at least that the mortality rate might be beginning to slow this report from paul brennan 0. Europe passed another significant number on monday as the continents death toll from coronavirus exceeded 50000 people thats the vast majority of the 70000 who died globally so far but while the infection is still on an upward curve in some European Countries in others there are signs of the contagion is starting to stabilize austria hopes to allow small shops and Garden Centers to reopen on april the 14th with restrictions potentially lifted on larger shops and hairdressers on may the 1st. But speaking from behind a protective per specs screen the austrian chancellor warned that everything depends on the infection rate the also double could be done in the wake of a star will be a deciding wait for us and it will be a week which will decide whether the resurrection after which were all hoping for can actually happen as planned. The Spanish Government is also studying how to gradually ease the lock down it imposed since march 14th Movement Restrictions have left poor and vulnerable residents relying on charitable groups like this one in seville to bring them food parcels. But on monday spains or 4th consecutive days drop in the number of new deaths and the number of new infections rising just 3. 3 percent offers some cause for hope relax. The restrictions cant come soon enough for those living beside Lake Constance the barbed wire which once separated the german town of constance and its swiss neighbor croxley and was torn down after world war 2 and residents mingled freely ever since now a new fence has created a coronavirus no mans land separating friends relatives and lovers pierre and his german girlfriend is a very well thought. Weve been speaking to each other on face time in recent weeks and thats ok for a while but after 2 or 3 weeks you realize that thats not good enough we needed to see each other and hear each of this voice there was no the way but to meet here at this fades in italys long body region despite reductions in both infection and death rates or fortys of actually tightened restrictions and residents now have to cover their mouth or nose whenever they go outside its an order intended to prevent complacency but a shortage of face masks is creating a problem in the future although no we cannot find protected mass i havent found them so i made one myself with dorothy say mass will be available in 3 days but theyve been saying that for a month restrictive measures are having an impact on the spread of the virus and collective discipline and a sense of civic duty are helping to save lives and canberra. And more people like this woman leaving intensive care are surviving but there are many thousands who will not make it to this stage of recovery and the avoiding infection in the 1st place still remains the safest strategy. Told brennan aljazeera.
