Not going this leave you if something were to happen it kind of like changes your your mindset your like only because i was in the theory i know how the Government Works and i dont want to put money into that i dont believe theyre going to protect me when the time comes so the only way you can protect yourself is by protecting yourself. Here sitting in front of a blast proof bunker made by the u. S. Army during world war 2 it is 2200 square feet. Its very large but its not the only one. Theres 575. 00 of them around me. Stretching out 6 miles it leaves directions 3 miles in these directions. Nobody was able to figure out what to do with the ones empty bunkers. But finally one of the ranchers that owned this section called me and said would you be interested i have 575 bunkers we are now building this into the Worlds Largest survival community with as many bunkers as we have we will eventually have 5 to 10000 people here ringback ringback. It will take them up on i think beyond us and link up where that guy flow could both man. And run out of on something happened to the generator. You know so im running off in my solar things out theres a lot of sun today so everything is have lights on fine ive got a food. And i also have my maybe in chicago that really helps me out she works and iraq iran member struggling she will help me out and shes going on incredible to me because i met her when i moved here before light. 3 or 4 months before i moved here and i told her i said look im outta here i quit my job im leaving you know we can start this then one thing led to another and we start going strong and i love her and shes eventually going to get here. But. Its a good like. Ok this is both ages ago. There you go it has put your looks. This is all kims left freaked out stuff you did go ahead and it gets elaine to do with gasoline yet you do it all. Give us something to drink a little bit here we got some good water here. Food so it can good let me check the temperature on this again. Like you cant go a little bit keep your freezer gone. House at 9 shadow where you shadows shes busy i want to sit down look at the t. V. Here for a little bit oh oh well yeah we get some news here i did put a camera and put the antenna on top theres a bunker one of the 1st cancer here. I have to lug and look at i painted the inside but i lost a gallon of paint i dont know why i lost a gallon of paint and its all over me and my great grandfathers colt. There were officers special of our name off the official who are a constable before world war one when they made gun right afterwards they start stamping amount is what the hell. Your government and our government and all the other major governments of the world know whats going to happen and when its going to. But they havent told you and they havent told me they havent announced it because if they were to announce it right now and tell you that in one year on a certain date the catastrophe is going to happen. The world would suddenly stop people would panic society would break down and nobody would go to work nobody would care about the law or prison so youd have lawlessness youd have. A terrible life between them and the. People. A lot of the pictures here are original so you can see all these pictures are were drawn here and the 5040 s. And i came to my bunker and i told the incredible pictures storm window frame everything after enslaved everything on a cut off here for every picture i have now. And frame it out so i can kind of show the artwork that was done is incredible were i get this lady here is from hawaii because she has a live me and she looks the wind. And i tell people do you have enough. If something happens for a day have enough food if something happened for today 3 dave have you ever tried not eating for a day have you ever tried not eating for 2 days you know so i try to. Open peoples minds to the reality that you know your government is going to protect you and. You guys are going to be you going to die because you think ive been eating for 2 hours. And youre going to die because youre putting that in your head and youre going to die. I am the 1st one to dedicate to doing Something Like this. I feel this is my calling. I feel this is what ive been preparing for my life. So i took the chance then. Moved here you know you can stay here you work on your bunker every day. And we got this light color right here when you come into the door here and the closet im going to be putting up here is actually a mirror and its actually a tan colored mirrors kind of a copper colored mirror and that we can see yourself when you come in or see yourself leave an enemy or gives its respective. Perspective for. Maybe baker in here even though its a small room. Right now i have 40 foot floor down sub floor. Calm pastored would compress the wood floor once i get phase one done. That would mean. Great room the kitchen in there the galley the vents. Pantry room. The bathroom now my bathroom actually will have a 12 volt. And cost me 11. 00 earn dollars toilet. Itself composite the to your waist the gray water goes out down this way. And you take that waste your bottom waste and put it in a barrel and a year later you can use it you date it you use it later and you can use it in your garden. Sell the bunker for 35000. 00 currently and that will continue to go up as we run out of supply everybodys heard of the cold war the cold war is over but the holy war is. Any big city anywhere in the world you dont know your neighbor you dont know the guy thats 5 miles down the street that has a gun and hes a criminal and hes a gang member and when everything happens the lights go out 1st thing hes going to do is go to the t. V. Store and break in and take all the t. V. s then after that theyre going to get hungry so theyre going to go to the supermarkets and were going to take everything in the market off the shelf will be nothing within 24 hours and then after about 3 days till. Theyre going to be very hot. And then theyre going to come knocking on your door. To say what do you got whatever it is. We want it. And theyre going to take it from. The old military bigger excess were they all we all used to see told people that used to the military guys used to run this town right because this used to be over 1500 military families here at one time so it was a big these were all barracks and everyone used and there is here this place you can be nothing but the big Beautiful Homes and now look it is torn. Still beautiful things from you and. A lot of people and over this this location is very filled with and its a. An element that extracts nuclear. Radiation you can like paper. A Nuclear Waste and i think thats why they put this here because its so. In trade it was very early on and if you do have an explosion the really mean to ground will get rid of it faster than if you were the woods somewhere that doesnt have really. Were presently city and Central Kansas which is the site of a Intercontinental Ballistic Missile base that was part of the cold war era and this particular site was a atlas athey missile silo which was nuclear hardened and i purchased this site in 2008 with the idea of converting it into a nuclear hardened bunker. The idea to go after a luxury bunker and design a facility like that became in the sas in the early on in the conceptual design phase because we realized that with the relatively small number of units that we could put into that the syllabi they would have to be at a higher price point. In the number one criteria that came up and that was a lot of people would say why need a bunker that would protect me and my family for 4 to 6 months and then the next guy would command and say well i was thinking that point needs something for at least a year and then someone has a what if we have a Global Climate change that wiped out crops for 0 so we had to be in there for years so we quickly got feedback from potential customers that had a really big span and timeframe. I know were in kansas but we decided to make people feel comfortable that are from the coastal welcome to the beach. So one of the things you dont expect to see in an underground bunker is an indoor Swimming Pool this is 75 feet long and holds 50000 gallons and its a salt water pool its all computer controlled and maintained. So here we have a Cross Section of the this is the dome of the where we just to tour the pool every day ocean we can go Level Medical and security the store level of hydroponics and then are stress eventually levels 3 for 5 through 11 and then theres a library in classroom an exercise and theater and then pontian storage. This is the hydroponics level one were on the lower level theres another identical configuration this room right above us these circular tanks all over here roughly half of the room are all for raising columbia these pipes shaped lower tanks are all for growing plants this half of the floor opposite the securities are a medical facility so and here we have a full pharmacy weve got everything from radiation drugs in. Iodine pills and likes and things like that thats what stored in here then we have a full dental office and we have a medical exam room. And we even have a hospital and procedure room so we can actually do minor surgeries i personally think its better to depend on yourself than the government for protection so if you can you know what we will do whats the downside here the downside is your family might not survive because you made the wrong choice of being prepared you thought that the government was going to take care of you and if you make those arrangements then. You still have a backup plan if you fail then maybe the governments there but if you come in the government may fail but your backup plan so i would try to do it myself. And maybe in your schoolyard play when the signal. Signal means to stop whatever you are doing and get to the nearest safe place. Always remember. Of an atomic bomb can come at any time only know the bomb can explode any time of the year day or night its ready for. In cover. Add up boy tony that means act fast tony knows that it helps to get to any kind of cover sundays holidays like asian time we must be ready every day all the time to do the right thing if the atomic bomb explodes. This family knows what to do to your own family should remember what you do tell me right out loud what it was supposed to do when you. Were not in a cold war situation anymore like we had in the 1960 s. With the soviet union back then we had what was called duck and cover and we had a mascot it was a turtle called bart the turtle and he would come dancing around and he would teach the children how to hide in case a bomb went off. Im 57 years old and ive never seen a country so divided as america is right now so divided that people are buying bunkers in record numbers to protect their family from the unknown because they dont know where their country is going they dont know where this country america thats going to end up in 10 years. We have a saying in america were all just 9 miles away from anarky now what that means if you take an america and you dont see him for 3 days he will kill you for food. That has been buzzing around. And i said what can i do to help my family. So i bought it in the next. Day but that bunker he doesnt want to know about but bunker he says oh my god roberta what did you do were going to get termes on this is now i dont well i buy the bunker 9 and thinking i get in the ground. Heres your bathroom. Come the street is. These challenge. These out of control. I put a little light. Here and a little storage area here and then this has storage in here on all 4 of them. And the curtains for privacy. Between 59 and 63 degrees all year round it could be snowing up or could be blazing hot in the same pitch or going around i like being alone sometimes so. Its just quiet you dont hear anything at all. Not even flies come down here is my girl cave. My husband go let me say this. Theres a planet coming through that has its own solar system. In the sun its got nibiru and it has its own moon it has its own has its own planets are going round its supposed to pass through between the sun and us. And something as big as the earth is going to cause tidal waves or earthquakes volcanoes. And its going to chill. Its over it for a while right and it can happen any time so. Much as an ism believe it but i do. It take some crazy not just dont believe the. Air part skip way over there. I dont have one here at their place but their pipes are way over there they dont come straight up in most cases like most bunkers they go straight up so if you go up to me pool water and it just goes into the bunker it doesnt happen on my bunkers meyers parts away over there so somebody comes out and finds an air pipe they try to pour gas in at our pumps smoke or even put Carbon Monoxide back a car up to a socket to get because of my valves with shut off the Carbon Dioxide the water go in the ground now if they put in a bag over the pipe thats eventually going to tokyo so there is no bunker i make this not impenetrable but i can help the lion as long as possible so then you have enough air in there to use the escape tunnel the flank the guy sitting in the back. This is a bunker but this has a like a 4 cox gun vault door inside it has the name of the guys ranch and you come down the stairs and it has a mud room as well say i ever one of my bunkers has a place to shower and decontaminate before entering the bunker. The shelters we make today are identical to the shelters made for john f. Kennedy is. Right now the people who are buying bunkers are not the liberals as the conservatives the conservatives are buying the bankers theyre buying the guns or buying the food theyre buying the image that the left is and buying anything because they figure they have the police in the military and theyre kind of crazy to begin with anyway if we could end up in a civil war number 2 in america it would start today it would happen the problem we cant is because were all intermingled so its a war of words on the news and media but this country needs to break up and people need to go to the side that the we need to split this country. This is mine this is mine. Just as he didnt want us since his mind is full she will be. Loaded and ready and. This is mine shes mine. Now you were used to get a laugh now we have a. Target. Range. They have an area about a mile behind us its in a little social shooting range and everybody in the local area schools fight to practice well so new short walking. And we practice come home and then we clean the fronts and ready for the next day. So will you know its you is another day. The same response im sure ill be able to make them. Going to your sisters blown 12 to 25. Shelters 400225 depending on the temperature drop here tonight deal situation because of the cool temperature. Is long as a remain sealed about 20 years. But whats your biggest fear my neighbors. Just in case people always ask me arent you worried about people knowing where your bunker is i said no because that point at the press free until. The locals here look at us. Like were crazy that thats a waste of money why are you doing that but the locals also dont know that. If you live in chicago you have nowhere else to go. So why not have things like this. The good thing is everything is paid off. I dont know nobody no money the focus paid off the car the heat off the trailer it all nothing i just got to figure out oh. Oh enough weight of pain my childhood pain my Daughters School and thats what i do. Just to live their life without fear. Then this whole world will be different but every once in ones fearful you need to break away from that fear because the only thing you have to fear is death thats the way i look at life and i think that ill just want to enjoy my life because time is precious. Time is you know thats what we have here and its fresh. In this community there are people who believe that its ok. Its really hard there are no jobs and you see that ive got kids. And as a parent. I can come up with lots of arguments and theres a lot of conflict within the game between the teams most of the conflict i would say. Is made. Close one on each of those he knows each other is good because the state of california alone makes 6000000000. 00 a year of the prison complex just to get some point in your life where. You dont care and. So you dont care about anything. World is driven by dreamers shaped by one person or those with. No dares thinks. We dare to ask. A lot of money dont let me know. Please. Please let them know. Let me let. The local. Welcome to all to you can you were currently awaiting the governments daily Coronavirus Press briefing its not yet clear who will give the update given how many key government figures and al self isolating in the meantime other news this hour. The Prime Ministers top adviser goes into self isolation with coronavirus as Government Experts say britains lockdown could last 6 months. And it just workers say they are forced to hide away the protective equipment and make sure visits as its claimed to government records for a pandemic 4 years ago but failed to heed the results ill be talking to a doctor. With moscow in lock down the other regions to follow its lead well be getting reaction from our correspondent in the russian capital. And that britain is on course for a recession worse than the 2008 credit crunch as analysts predict a major downturn could be coming from a financial expert. Also this hour firefighters get set to deliver a food drive evidences and recovered bodies as britain prepares for the peak of the pandemic well be talking to a former fighter a little later. Welcome to the u. K. Live from Central London the government has warned that coronavirus a lockdown measures could last for 6 months as the Prime Ministers chief advisor self isolates with symptoms of the disease thats as worries grow of a shortages of n. H. S. Resources despite the authorities rehearsing for a very similar scenario 4 years ago. He joins me now with the latest so the virus continues to hit at the heart of the government. Yes absolutely weve seen over the weekend the numbers of deaths in the u. K. As a result of covered 900 rise in the latest figures announced today are thats 1408 people have sadly lost their lives across all of the countries in the United Kingdom now weve seen last week the Prime MinisterBoris Johnson testing positive for coded 19 and as a result hes self isolating at number 10 we also saw those images of the governments special advisor Dominic Cummings running away from downing street now those images that went viral they brought much perhaps levity to what is a very serious situation but actually mr cummins themself is now also self isolating although its not clear whether he has tested positive yet for or not now as i mentioned johnson is self isolating he is quarantined but still he took the opportunity to record a message for the nation i want to thank everybody whos been complying with our instructions to you to stay at home and weve already seen massive falls in railway usage i think down about 95 percent plus you should got about cindy 5 Percent People really trying to work from home if they possibly can and thats what we want stay at home protect the n. H. S. Saved lives. Of course all the advice about social distancing has now become the norm weve seen police over the weekend breaking up a number of gatherings in darby there was a party attended by 25 adults and children a Karaoke Party and as you can see quite a spread put on its those types of gathering which the police are now have the power to try to stop and to break up now i dont understand any arrests were made but the police do have the ability to arrest people if they persist but also so far in people who are holding these types of gatherings or in other ways who are breaking the quarantine rules now weve been hearing over the weekend from the deputy chief Health Advisor to the government and she says that all of these restrictive measures could last up to 6 months the issue of the 3 weeks is for us to review where we are and see if weve had an impact jointly on the slope of that curve but i think to make it clear to the public if we are successful we will have squashed the top of that which is brilliant but we must not then suddenly revert to a normal way of living that would be quite dangerous if we start with an all of our efforts will be wasted and we could potentially see a 2nd peak so over time probably over the next 6 months we will have a 3 week review we will see where we going we need to keep that later on and then gradually we will be able to hopefully just some of the social distancing measures and grant judy get us all back to normal. Dr herries has come in for some criticism because not that long ago just 2 weeks ago she was encouraging people to keep going to large events Mass Gatherings and so on and so forth calling for schools to stay open and in this period weve seen events like the chelton festival taking place and so its for those reasons that the doctor has come in for criticism. Now and we will be there are some countries where the big sporting events and the these documents galleries 100. 00 of them to this one suit all of the militant voices in this country is not to do that in this country we have tasted it and mobile is looking at the bigger political moment and with that it will serve as an intervention might help money this is the good will push the people to date and then it would and in general those of the events being carried on nothing seem to be indeed and then he thinks if we get this right it isnt. And how is the n. H. S. Coping with all of us at the moment. Well the n. H. S. Are preparing for the peak of this crisis but it would appear that the n. H. S. Could have been better stuff them better prepared and given better resources because 4 years ago the government ran an operation or an exercise to predict exactly this type of scenario it was called exercise cygnus and it was a pandemic model to test the capability of the n. H. S. Looking at how they would cope 7 weeks into a pandemic the model or the mark virus was a deadly respiratory virus from asia in almost exactly like coded 19 and that model threw up the following conclusions that would be shortages of protective equipment ventilators of Critical Care beds and overflowing more trees and critically that general n. H. S. Capacity would struggle as well because of course its not just covered 19 there are other people with other Health Conditions and operations that need to take place all of which seemed to have been put on the back but now so the governments have come in for criticism for not heeding the advice of that exercise but now the government responding saying that they run these types of models all of the time. As the public would expect we regularly test our pandemic plans and the learnings from previous exercises have helped allow us to rapidly response to cope at 19 we are delivering a science led action plan to contain delay in research and mitigate the outbreak and have acted swiftly to contain and slow the spread of the virus significantly to save lives up to port our n. H. S. So in some quarters criticism for how the government have or havent prepared for an event like this one is a thank you very much indeed for all of the well with those doomsday warnings not being heated some n. H. S. Frontline staff say theyre forced to hide their personal protective equipment reports say that Health Workers are grabbing what they can from hospital Storage Units including face masks and protective glasses is that many a word that there simply arent enough to go around and that some workers are even calling in sick out of fear the government said it is working to get additional personal protective equipment to frontline staff earlier spoke to physician dr bernard single he suggested that the shortages need actually be down to communication issues. Seems to be have. Really its not being it really. And there slightly because are different shows are interpreting only had been guidance if. And i mean problems in these very lanes are that theyre fundamentally plot and using and contradictory and so chose to be honest have to say you do what with me from these very lanes and making it. Really big to the star where some trysts have yet to do that and still dragging behind and not having the right protective clothing it must be terrifying for stuff on the front line physically and mentally it is causing a lot of friends 80 fear amongst friends lame star and thats why we believe that all the suspected patients in the hospital ship fall in theyre going to agree or confirmed it was 2 cases and these cases all these cases your property which is as a pyramid serious muscovites are for the balance because any patient whos coughing should fall in the end to get a result and this is recognised by them again. And you have a properly prepared for a pandemic of the sort i mean you have experience yourself of these exercises one i dont have experience myself but it is it is a very difficult situation and i think anybody can be ever be properly prepared for these. Images and one has to call everybody has to bring to get their pants so i have also been the go home end and also arent even close but at the same time i think what we the campaign is asking is lets do this with a good friend in a very bitter half of the small because youll be a lot better if people deal with make it about the stuff. Well just to recap those numbers for you the total number of corona virus cases in britain is now over 19000 more than 100 people have recovered from the disease while more than 1400 have lost their lives as for now england has 16487 confirmed cases scotland has 1384 wales has 1241 a Northern Ireland has 410 thats is the 1st minister of scotland announces another new Field Hospital in glasgow similar to those being billed in meant just birmingham and east london and Northern Irelands Justice Minister has released just under 200. 00 prisoners nearing the end of their sentences to help prison authorities deal with the pandemic. Across the world the number of people confirmed to have died has nasa parsed 35000 that says the total number of infected people has jumped over 740000 with the epicenter now in the United States 156000 have all ready recovered. The russian president has called on heads of other regions to fall of the capitals lead and instigate tough knock down measures to tackle the coronavirus our correspondent in moscow donald quarter has mill. Russia still managing to keep down its number of coronavirus cases for a lot lower than what were seeing in the u. S. And europe right now its around to its just under 2000 cases but Vladimir Putin still wants ordinary people and officials to know that they need to take this crisis seriously hes asked officials across the country actually to follow moscows lead in strictly carrying out government measures that are intended to combat the spread of the virus. Today we are doing only to ensure that the virus doesnt hit a large number of people and the preparations need to take place in all regions and take into account old account collated scenarios of the potential spread on the basis of the experience of other countries we need to take all necessary measures even if uninformed people think theyre rather over the top for russia as they say god saves the man who saves himself now the russian capitals measures that were talking about here stopped just short of a full lockdown where people are now required to have special permission to leave their homes for any reason other than to take out the trash get groceries or walk their dog now putin also called for the creation of additional reserves of medical supplies to use in this in this time of crisis and for if the crisis continues to get even worse this is an important decision to make right now when the situation here is really more or less mild in comparison to other places now its also important that citizens understand the severity of the situation especially the elderly who once again has encouraged to stay home its really their best chance of protecting their health and their lives amidst this worldwide pandemic and for a while in russia this is just a recommendation but as the coronavirus cases here are gradually continue to rise the measures against it against the spread of this virus are slowly becoming more strict so perhaps through those measures russia will be able to maintain its control d over the situation. Where in other places it spun completely out of control. Still to come on. This i know this claim the u. K. Is heading towards a recession full with us in 2008 and economics expressed. And british just to help alger in the virus crisis even connecting bodies to talk to form a fall off the shelf break. Is your media a reflection of reality. In a world transformed. What will make you feel safe from. The isolation full community. Are you going the right way or are you being led so. Direct. What is true what is faith. In the world corrupted you need to descend. To join us in the depths. For a mate in the shallowness of. The Atlantic Alliance the bedrock of the post world war 2 Global Security order is slowly but surely unraveling more and more often washington in brussels by virtue of them 40 Foreign Policy issues today europe has a choice to defend its interests or fade into oblivion. President trump has claimed that keeping coded 19 deaths below 100000 in the us would be a great achievement for him in. Well return to that in just a moment but in the meantime we can cross live to the government Daily Press Briefing given today by foreign secretary nominee. Good afternoon welcome to downing street for todays Coronavirus Press briefing im joined by our chief scientific advisor valance and dr yvonne doyle medical director at Public Health england. Before the subject provides an update on the latest data from our cobra occur coronavirus dashboard i just want to give you an update on the steps that we as a government have been taken to defeat corona virus. A step by step action plan is aiming to slow the spread of the virus so fewer people need hospital treatment and he won time thereby protecting the n. H. S. His capacity. At each point weve been following the scientific and medical advice and weve been very deliberate in our actions taking the right steps at the right moment. Were also taking unprecedented action to increase and h. S. Capacity by dramatically expanding the numbers of beds key staff lifesaving equipment on the front line so that we give people the care they need when they need it most. Thats why were instructing people to stay at home so we can protect our n. H. S. And save lives. I can report that through the governments ongoing monitoring and Testing Program as of today 134946 people have now been tested for the virus 112805 have tested negative 22141 have tested positive. Of those who have contracted the virus 1408 have very sadly died. We express our deepest condolences to the families and friends of those of those who have passed away and i think those figures are a powerful reminder to us all of the importance of following the governments guidelines we must stay at home to protect our n. H. S. And save lives and id like to thank all of those involved on the frontline in particular all of those in the n. H. S. For their battle against this virus the amazing doctors the amazing nurses all the support staff working day and night the thousands of other key workers from our teachers to supermarket workers to a fantastic Diplomatic Network who are all as a team working around the clock to get us through this unprecedented coronavirus challenge. This is a United National effort and the spirit of selflessness shown by so many is an inspiration. I now want to turn to what weve been doing to support british people traveling around the world coronavirus hasnt just challenges at home is the greatest Global Challenge in a generation and as the countries work to secure their borders and stop with the spread of this deadly virus we appreciate that an unprecedented number of u. K. Travelers are trying to get home and were not talking a few 100 or even a few thousands were talking about hundreds of thousands of people traveling around the world so with that in mind on the 17th of march we advise people against all nonessential traveled around the world and since the 23rd of march weve advised that all or u. K. Residents who are currently traveling abroad should return home hundreds of thousands have already done so. But many travelers havent yet managed to get back home from young backpackers to retard couples on cruises and we appreciate the difficult predicament that they find themselves in. We also recognize exactly the anxiety of families here in the u. K. Who are concerned to get their loved ones home its a worrying sign for all of those whove been affected. And i want to reassure them that this government their government is working around the clock to support advice and to help british travelers get home ive spoken to more than 24 and ministers around the world in the last week will say to support this effort to keep airports and ports open and to facilitate access to them by british travelers. Over the weekend i spoke to Foreign Ministers from a stranger new zealand india and brazil and pakistan and i also spoke to the ethiopian Prime Minister and in all of those cases urge them to what with this to compare to keep commercial routes flying. Given the scale and complexity of this challenge inevitably requires a team effort. So the Foreign Office is working with other governments theres a particular focus on transit hubs and were also working with the airlines to keep as many flights running its possible. Weve got a lot more to do but weve already helped hundreds of thousands of britons get home. The 1st priority has been to keep as many commercial flights running as we can and thats based on just purely the scale and the number of people who want to come home and as a result of those efforts and the corporation received from the Spanish Government weve enabled nesta mated 150000 u. K. Nationals to get back from spain. On other commercial routes theyve come under pressure we work with partner governments and airlines to get back 8500 u. K. Travelers from morocco around 5000 national from the foreign secretary dominic robb theyre giving the governments Daily Press Briefing the foreign secretary said that he understood the concerns of those trying to get back to the u. K. And highlighted the work he was doing to bring people home and he also said the government was dramatically expanding n. H. S. Capacity n. H. S. Testing and reminded people to stay home as per the conditions of the meltdown. British for fighters will assist the public during the lock down and are ready to recover bodies if the crisis worsens as part of a joint National Approach the Emergency Service will deploy for fighters to drive ambulances deliver essential items to the vulnerable and elderly and collect bodies in the event of mass casualties during the break the greenman between the fabricators union and foreign rescue ploys is set to last for 2 months but can be amended depending on demand we face a Public Health crisis and paralleled in our lifetimes the coronavirus outbreak is now a humanitarian emergency and firefighters rightly want to help their communities many fear the loss of life in this outbreak could be overwhelming and firefighters who often handle terrible situations and incidents are ready to step in to assist with body retrieval for more on this im now joined by a former firefighter lucy must suit lucy and hello to you thanks for joining us. This is this is a very grim subject matter isnt it of course but im sure far fighters would want to help out. Oh absolutely the feedback im getting is overwhelmingly firefighters are happy to volunteer and do this and this is not the 1st time that volunteers half of them selves forward i mean we saw the reaction after the Grenfell Tower tragedy where firefighters across the country volunteered to assist the london fire brigade and also the community at renfro in any way they could very recently bill and you saw over 65 fighters from this country some of them retired traveling at their own expense to australia to help with the bushfires there and the Emergency Response operations going on there so of course firefighters across this country certainly in london whenever there is any kind of disaster they are more than willing to how certainly in a situation of the feedback im getting from friends of mine former colleagues is that theyre desperate to help out in any way they count and part of that help will be of course dealing with bodies and of which have been infected with the virus that could be dangerous for personnel. Certainly but of course as firefighters we put ourselves in the front line every single day we certainly put our lives at risk every single day when we go to work and we all used to unfortunately are used to dealing with dead bodies which we do quite often as firefighters within the brigade and many firefighters will have relatives and loved ones who work for the n. H. S. Of course they dont want sir assist them in any way they can and of course most firefighters will also have the relatives who theyre rethinking of at this time so yes there are risks in face of our fighters and what we must do is ensure that if we do volunteer in pass else forward which im sure thousands will that there is the proper protections in place for us we are given the correct p. P. And that we are protected in the event of injury so if there is a firefighter who is injured or infected because of the coronavirus that they will be protected and they will not be disciplined later on. On the line for going off set and of course crucially bill if were taking a number of firefighters on way from fire stations and putting them places where they can help with this pandemic we need to make sure that fire cover is not negatively impacted because what we dont want to see is firefighters not able to attend to those fire emergencies now more so than ever were saying hundreds will see millions of people across the country who are at home 24 hours a day that their full gives the bigger rigs that there will be. Fires in their household except truck so we really need our fire cover and to be as effective as ever a little early to say you want to make sure that the firefighters will be safe when they carry out these judis but of course we are hearing of that Health Service work because they they dont have the right protective gear so how can you be confident the firefighters can go about their work and feel safe and protected. It is a concern and the answer to your question is at this point we cant be confident and this is something we need to put on the government the government have reached out to us and theyve asked firefighters across the country to volunteer their services and and to help with this which of course we are more than willing to do but then the government needs to do their part and they need to make sure that not just firefighters but n. H. S. Workers and its worked with across the country are as safe as they can be of course when you do a job like firefighting when you work for Emergency Services you can never be 100 percent safe and we are willing to pass par lives on the line every single day but at the same time the government has to fulfill their duties to make sure were not putting ourselves in harms way whether it can be where it can be avoided again very briefly if you dont mind clearly extra training will be needed to take on these fresh challenges what will the service get it isnt just on. I mean its a difficult one i mean time is of an essence i mean you know normally its a become a firefight it takes you know 6 months pass a training were in a situation its completely unprecedented yes in an ideal world we would have been a farmer training we would have all of the we need however i think this is the most at sea we just need to get out there and do what we need to do this i must say thank you very much indeed and thats it for the most ill be back with more news for you just over half an hour from now.
