Well we do certainly understand the intention of trying to see who can go safely back to work who would be a van surely risk free also expecting other people but unfortunately from the scientific point of view we simply dont know if a person who has been infected would call the 90 and we saw scope to high risk. Get this immunity and if it gets there meet the how long this immunity is lasting we still need to see that through studies and we do welcome all the advances that are being made on diagnostics and trying to get that sense that will show us how many people actually have been infected in the 5 pieces you put up for several reasons but at this point we simply dont know so there is no evidence of how much of immunity if any is being provided to adults who have been infected by the fact we understand that people who have on people already. May acquire the immunity because these antibodies real. May may stay in the body like it the case with other diseases and and recognize the virus when it comes again but at this stage this is a new virus we simply dont know also theres an issue with a number of diagnostics that are being used out there many of them have not been independently verified their Research Risk well suppose its all false negatives which then brings all sorts of other issues so at this stage the piece important that we work on diagnostics and what happened yesterday when we got world read a School Meeting to accelerate the process of research on vaccines but also now the tools such as that gnostic this is really important for the future but at this stage unfortunately this idea of risk free certificate does not really grounded in science. The u. K. Hospital death toll has exceeded 20000 up by more than 800 in the past day its the 5th country to pass that milestone so its a very sad day for the nation 20000 deaths is clearly 20000 too many that this unfortunately is not going to be something that we will get over in the next few weeks this is something that we are going to continue to have to work our way through over the months ahead as ive said before this is not a sprint this will be a matter of them in dealing with this virus in another blow retail sales in the u.
