Died in the latest 2a hour period. Thats those who have tested positive for coronavirus and died in hospitals, care homes and the community. The total number of uk deaths stands at 28,131. 1st, thousands of people have registered to take part in a trial that uses in a trial that uses blood plasma from people whove recovered from coronavirus, to treat sick patients. Its one of the latest trials in progress aimed at tackling the virus. Our health correspondent, Catherine Burns reports. Could this golden liquid be an effective treatment against coronavirus . Its not an expensive new drugs, but blood plasma are freely given by survivors. Joe is donating after her whole family got coronavirus and her husband was ill enough to need hospital treatment. Im somebody that would have donated purely because im quite terrified of needles and giving blood. But Everybody Needs to do their bit. The idea is simple. Donors need to have had coronavirus and have fully recovered. The liquid part of their blood, plasma, contains antibodies produced by the immune system to recognise and fight the virus. Researchers say when this is given to critically ill patients, it gives them some instantaneous immunity. So far, about 150 recovered coronavirus patients in england have donated their plasma, enough to treat another 150 critically ill people. Now the intensive care consultant running the trial is run looking for patients to give the plasma as well. So far he is still waiting because hes not seeing as many seriously ill people with coronavirus 110w. Seriously ill people with coronavirus now. Its a good thing that the pandemic, there is a semblance of control of the pandemic here, so im actually happy and feel that we are ready if the second wave happens, yes. He hopes that if this trial works, we will have an effective treatment against coronavirus. Catherine burns, bbc news. Rolls royce says it will probably have to make thousands of job cuts as part of plans to deal with the impact of coronavirus. Our Business Correspondent katy austin is here. Katy another blow to uk business and those people losing theirjobs. How big is this for uk manufacturing . It is difficult news for an important uk injury. Engineering giant rolls royce employs about 20,000 people across the uk including sites in derby. A Company Source told me that Senior Leaders had said thatjob losses could reach 8000, although they are still working to try and mitigate the impact of that. What we are seeing here really is the knock on impact of covid 19 travel restrictions. Because airlines are suffering, so plane makers are cutting back on production and rolls royce makes aircraft engines, so it is feeling the heat as well. The British Government has provided a lot of support for businesses to try and see them through this time but aviation is one of the sector is calling for still more help. Argue for that. Pressure is growing on the government to do more to help the owners of Small Businesses as well. A raft of measures to include employed and self employed workers will receive 80 of their income up to £2500 per month but there are nearly 2 Million Limited companies who pay themselves mainly through dividends which are not covered. Hi, my name is davinia, and i own a performing Arts Education company. Im charles and i am a chiropractor. My name is lorna and i run a cosmetic car repair business. Im gina, i run a Shutter Company with my husband, simon. My names Rachel Whitfield and i run a training company. Hello, my names kirsty. I have a shop in somerset with my husband and we supply and install fireplaces. They are all different, but they all have something in common. They feel forgotten by the government. We are the ones taking the risk, trying to keep our businesses open, yet we are not being supported personally to support our families, the same as everybody else. Sales have gone up in smoke. Theyre trying to get a loan for the business and live on £600 each month, all they are entitled to on furlough from the government because they got most of their income from dividends. Weve probably got another sort of month and it depends how much money we can borrow on a credit card. Small businesses are the backbone of our economy. Many are set up as a limited company. Their directors or owners typically pay a minimal salary, but take most of their income as dividends that vary depending on how well the company is doing. That can reduce their tax bills, meaning there might not be much sympathy for more government help, but many are advised or forced to set up their businesses this way. Its perfectly legal, and right now, as dividends have dried up, its costing them dear. The clever people in the treasury will be able to find a way around this. So could and should the government do more . 0ne influential mp thinks so. Self employed people might work for a company or might not work for a company but the reality is that that is their income, that is their livelihood and i think its only right that those for example, who qualify under the self employment income support scheme who will receive up to £2,500 a month to support them that that support should also be available to those who are structured in a different way. The treasury says there is already a host of support measures to make sure these owners can get back to work, including a new loan scheme, but for many, debt is the last thing they want when theyre fighting to survive the shutdown. Emma simpson, bbc news. As we heard ministers are studying proposals, aimed at getting the economy restarted including easing some measures of the lockdown. Heres chris mason. This is what relative liberation looks like right now, being able to throwjunk into a skip. In manchester this afternoon, the prospect of a trip to the reopened tip had people queueing to get in. Just cant wait to get rid of the stuff. With a green bean at this time of the year, theres a lot going on in the garden and it gets full of waste all the time and we need to start emptying them as soon as possible. But todays Government News c0 nfe re nce as possible. But todays Government News conference told us that a loosening of the rules could be based around the fact that the virus finds it harder to spread outside than inside, but. That moment has not yet come and members of the public watching this afternoon should continue to stick to our message which is to stay at home. The government has proudly talked up the huge expansion in its capacity to test but the next colossal challenge as restrictions are eased are tracking and tracing new outbreak so they are contained, including via an app for us to use. Clearly we want to have a very quick tests a nd clearly we want to have a very quick tests and we do not want to be asking contacts to stay isolated for asking contacts to stay isolated for a long period of time if the initial person who triggered the alarm, so to speak, actually turns out not to have covid 19 so there is a speed issue. Its also an issue that not everybody will be able to operate a digital system. Today the government announced it had delivered its1 million food package to help those who are shielding, not leaving home at all. There are 1. 8 Million People in england alone in this situation. I wonder what long term plans there are to help those people out, not just in terms of the provision of food, but also their Mental Health and their general well being . Food, but also their Mental Health and their general wellbeing . Well, for the shielded, the priority is to ensure that those who want to move off our food boxes onto Privileged Access to the supermarkets can do so and the supermarkets are doing great work in increasing their capacity to do delivery services. Medical, economic and societal challenges. Chris mason reporting there. People in spain have been allowed outside to exercise for the first time in seven weeks, after one of the strictest lockdowns in europe. Today the spanish Prime Minister said that facemasks will be mandatory on public transport from monday. Heres damian grammaticas. 0nto empty streets, tentatively, spaniards began emerging today, released from 48 days of confinement. Then the numbers began to swell. Adults first, allowed out to take a walk, to exercise for the first time in weeks. Until now, the only acceptable reasons for leaving your home were to buy food or go to the chemist. This is fantastic. Its amazing. The first time i ride with my bike this morning, it was incredible, really incredible. Its the fresh air in your face. Then, at ten in the morning, it all changed. Adults back indoors so the elderly could have two hours to themselves. And, after midday, children. Spain is giving different age groups specific Time Outdoors to limit the chances the most vulnerable can catch the virus. With this relaxation, spains government is dipping a cautious toe in the waters to see what happens. If virus cases continue to trend downwards, there will be more easing in the coming days. If they surge up again, well, then then lockdown will come back. Damian grammaticas, bbc news, valencia. Coronavirus myths and speculation have been rife on social media during the pandemic, with authorities often frustrated in attempts to tackle the source of misinformation. As Marianna Spring reports . Celebrities, influencers, neighbours, friends all influential, all spreading misinformation. But, to stop the spread, you need to remove the source of disinformation. Within the maze, some sources come from a sinister place, in search of clicks and money. 0thers create posts as a joke. I faked a gov. Uk text message telling people that theyd been fined for leaving their house over three times a day, and i thought it would be funny to sort of scare them with a fake text message. And then there are conspiracy theorists. Whilst these conspirators want to push their message, there are politicians wanting to protect theirs. I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in a minute, one minute, and is there a way we can do Something Like that . In the fight to stop misinformation, authorities and social Media Companies are working across a range of front lines. Its not just about the spreaders. If sources are identified and targeted, their misinformation can be prevented from going viral in the first place. But the government is struggling with the fine balance between monitoring online comment and free speech. It tells the bbc that. While we are taking action to address harmful false narratives online, we will ensure that freedom of expression in the uk is protected and enhanced online. Experts, like chloe colliver, say the governments need to protect free speech should not mean that sources of fake news are left to peddle misleading content. Despite all the efforts of companies and governments over the last few years, theres still enormous work to be done in dealing with bad actors who are exploiting crises like this to spread their own harmful agendas. Tech companies will ban users who repeatedly breach their guidelines. But, ultimately, were all responsible for slowing the spread of misinformation. Marianna spring, bbc news. Borisjohnson and his fiancee Carrie Symonds have named their baby boy Wilfred Lawrie nicholasjohnson. The names are a tribute to the couples respective grandfathers and two doctors who treated mrjohnson while he was in hospital with coronavirus. Thats it. Were back with the late news at ten. Now on bbc one its time for the news where you are. Goodbye. Youre watching the bbc news. Lets just remind you of some of the main points from the downing street briefing this afternoon. It was led by the local government secretary robertjenrick, along with drjenny harries the deputy chief medical 0fficerfor england. Mrjenrick told us that yesterday 621 more people had died with coronavirus in hospitals, care homes and the wider community. This means a total of 28,131 people had died after testing positive for coronavirus in the uk as of 5pm yesterday. 0n testing, mrjenrick said that 105,937 coronavirus tests have been carried out in the uk on friday announcing Financial Support for victims of Domestic Violence, he said he wanted to ensure that no victim of Domestic Violence has to make the unbearable choice between staying somewhere that they know is unsafe or becoming homeless. This is what robertjenrick said about the funding announced today. While the necessary social distancing measures remain in place, it is harder than before for victims of Domestic Abuse to reach out to their friends, to their family, to colleagues and to neighbours for the support that they urgently need. Today, i can announce a package of over £76 million in new funding to support the most vulnerable in society during the pandemic. This funding will help charities support survivors of domestic and sexual abuse. It will support Vulnerable Children and theirfamilies and it will support victims of modern slavery. This Additional Support will ensure more safe spaces and accommodation for survivors of Domestic Abuse and their children. And the recruitment of additional councillors for victims of sexual violence. And this funding will also help front line charities to be able to offer different ways of supporting those in need, including virtual or phone based services. We know that some refuges have had to reduce or even cancel the services that they would want to provide during the pandemic. This funding will help them to meet the challenges posed in this national emergency. And to continue to help those that desperately need support. I would like to say a word of thanks to Domestic Abuse charities who are doing so much at this time to help so many people. The womens aid refuge in my constituency is one example. And i would like to thank marlene and her amazing team in newark. People like that do incredible work and deserve all our thanks and gratitude now more than ever before. Where refuges dont have enough capacity to support those in need during the pandemic, some have asked us if they could use hotels or other accommodations nearby on a temporary basis. For example, as move on accommodation where theyjudge it to be safe and appropriate to do so. We will work with refuges to make this option available to them if theyjudge it to be the right one when it is necessary. If theyjudge it to be the right one where it is necessary. And thank you also to pharmacies such as boots who are providing a safe space for victims of Domestic Abuse in some of their shops and are training more of their staff to be able to support those people when they come into the stores, so they can safely provide support and Contact Services for help and advice. Ive been speaking to sally field, chair of womens trust, a charity which supports women with the emotional impact of Domestic Abuse. She welcomed the funding announcement. Any emergency funding is always welcome at this time. Womens trust, like many charities, have to launch fundraising appeals to meet immediate needs, because the fundraising activities have come to a halt and corporate donations are drying up. So yes, we do welcome the announcement. Somewhat cautiously, only because we dont have any detail about how we will be able to access these funds. And quite often, the smaller and specialist charities find that difficult, really. They often miss out because of that. He was talking about support for more safe spaces and accommodation. There has been an ongoing debate about the number of refuges that were forced to close in recent years because of funding being withdrawn by local authorities, in particular in a time of austerity. We are in a time when people are effectively trapped in their homes if they are in an abusive relationship or have an abusive family member. How do you get from a position where, first of all, you provide those safe spaces that havent existed for some time, and second you get people into them in the middle of a lockdown . That is extremely difficult. And i think the proposals to open up some hotels and hostels to provide the immediate need is very welcome. But this is why the sector needs long term sustainable funding, because we need to be able to find that accommodation, adapt it for the particular needs of refuge survivors. There are so many women who are turned away at the moment, even before lockdown. So it is gonna take a massive cross government effort. To be fair, there has been a lot of attention on this issue, not least in recent weeks based on the Domestic Abuse bill, further strengthening of the legislative powers and the powers prosecute. But prosecution is a long way down the line, isnt it . For many women in this situation. I know its not always only women, it can be men as well, but perhaps were talking about women as the Biggest Group affected. Presumably prosecution is less important than safety . It certainly is. And many women actually say it is not necessarily the prosecution, it is actually getting over the traumatic experience that they have been through and being able to rebuild their lives. And quite often, that is why victims will not come to court. Because they are just reliving the trauma. And what they really want is to feel safe and rebuild their lives. It can take many years to recover from the emotional experiences and actually, the Community Secretary did say that he recognised there was an emotional cost of Domestic Abuse on peoples Mental Health. And thats another reason for long term sustainable funding for the sector. So that we can provide all of the services that women need, notjust accommodation. But also tackling all of their needs in the round. Let me ask you finally, is there any evidence as to what effect the lockdown has been having . Are there more calls to helplines . Has been any measurable way of assessing the impact of this period on people in abusive relationships . The National Helpline has reported an increase in calls. But in the rest of the sector, what is worrying us is that we are receiving fewer calls and that is because victims are unable to reach out. They dont have a safe space to make phone calls, they are not even taking the children to school, getting a break where they might have some privacy. So that is extremely difficult and were really expecting, after lockdown, quite exponential increase in calls for help. An experimental drug has been authorised for emergency use on coronavirus patients in the United States. A Clinical Trial suggested remdesivir shortened Recovery Time for people who fall seriously ill with the virus. Heres david willis. Could it prove a game changer . Remdesivir is an antiviral drug that appears to help severely ill coronavirus patients recover. Announcing that federal regulators had approved emergency use of the drug, President Trump said it also had the backing of his medical experts. An important treatment for hospitalised coronavirus patients and its something i spoke with dr hahn and dr fauci, i spoke with deborah about it, and its really a promising situation. Earlier this week, the governments Infectious Diseases expert revealed that a Clinical Trial had shown that remdesivir could block the virus and help patients recover more quickly. The data shows that remdesivir has a clear cut significant positive effect in diminishing the time to recovery. Manufactured by the californian Pharmaceutical Company gilead, remdesivir failed as a treatment for hepatitis and ebola, but tests showed that it shortened the Recovery Time for coronavirus patients by more than 30 , or an average about four days. Neither a vaccine nor a cure, it is none the less the most promising treatment to date. After weeks under lockdown, large parts of this country are finally, tentatively starting to reopen. Texas has reopened its beaches, but restaurants and Shopping Centres have been ordered to limit their capacity to 25 for two more weeks at least. The United States remains the global epicentre of the coronavirus, a million cases and counting and more than 63,000 deaths. Medical experts are warning that by reopening their economies too quickly, some states could run the risk of sparking a second wave of the pandemic. President trump ended his 32 day white house lockdown by flying to camp david for a weekend of talks with his advisers, all part of an attempt to kick start the American Economy ahead of elections later this year. Meanwhile, the hunt for a cure for the virus goes on. David willis, bbc news. The north Korean Leader kimjong un has appeared in public for the first time in nearly three weeks. His absence prompted international rumours about his health. Heres our correspondent, laura bicker. You can see kim jong un clearly walking and talking and talking to crowds, cutting ribbons, laughing with officials. Hundreds of people are present, the crowds are wading masks but the officials around kim jong un are not. He seems alive and quite well. He is seen smoking throughout the pictures, suggesting perhaps there has not been any problems with his lungs as some have suggested. This all came about because the north Korean Leader was last seen on april the 11th and did not turn out for a celebration on april the 15th. The celebration of his grandfather, the founder of north korea, it is unprecedented for him not to turn up so it raise a few eyebrows here. A report which is partly run by north korean defectors said that a source in north korea had said the north Korean Leader had had said the north Korean Leader had had a heart operation or some kind of heart procedure and was recovering. That then ballooned into International Coverage and headlines that range from, he was gravely elk, two he was in a coma and also that perhaps he was indeed hiding from covid 19. Now it seems that these headlines are either been mis proven 01 we headlines are either been mis proven or we dont really know where he has been for the last two weeks. Has he been for the last two weeks. Has he been ill, has he been some kind of procedure . It is very hard to tell. Time for a look at the weather with darren bett.
