Hotspots including the north east of england, which is facing new restrictions later this week. Also tonight. Children in england should only be given a coronavirus test if they display the known symptoms thats the government advice. In south america, the Amazon Region is once again suffering more devastating fires as the brazilian Government Faces more calls to protect the rainforest. And we go to germany to find the syrian refugee who crossed europe in her wheelchair five years ago. Coming up in the sport on bbc news, an early everton goal in the carabao cup, so has Michael Keane spoiled the party for league 2s salford city . Good evening. Theres more evidence today of the severe problems being faced by people who need a test for coronavirus and of thousands of results being delayed. The Prime Minister blamed the shortage on what he called a colossal spike in demand with the re opening of schools being the prime cause of the spike. Borisjohnsons critics say its also the case that the government has failed to deliver on its promises. Mrjohnson told mps today that Everything Possible was being done and that he was determined to avoid another lockdown which he said would be disastrous for the economy. Our Health Editor hugh pym has the latest. Long waits and frustration for people in southend queueing at a walk in Virus Testing centre today further evidence of the immense strain on the whole system. I dropped my daughter off with my granddaughter, she was about 350 people behind all these, to be told that they cannot get tested because they dont have enough. They only had enough tests to do for about 150 people. Beth, who lives in surrey, has been trying repeatedly since yesterday to book a test, but cant. She and two of her children have symptoms. Its extremely stressful, it has added a lot of stress to what is already an upsetting time for us while we are managing everybody being poorly. Trying to get through and constantly trying to check my phone to try and hope that we find a test somewhere, and it is really frustrating, to be honest. Experiences like that fuelled exchanges at Prime Ministers questions. Theyve had six months, mr speaker, to get this right, and yet the Prime Minister still cant deliver on his promises. The Health Secretary said yesterday it would take weeks to sort the situation out. Well, mr speaker, we dont have weeks. What is happening, mr speaker, is that the british people, quite understandably, are responding to that system with a huge, huge surge in demand. Later the Prime Minister, at a commons committee, admitted there were problems. We dont have enough Testing Capacity now, because in an ideal world i would like to test absolutely everybody that wants a test immediately. The government says the uk is testing more than other leading european countries, and that is the case with the number expressed relative to the population. There are, though, some smaller european nations doing more. But laboratories analysing the tests here are struggling to keep up with the workload. The government says new labs are coming on stream, but not for a few weeks. Here is how Much Community testing, not including nhs staff and patients, has gone up in recent weeks. On september 1st, there were just over 119,000 tests processed. That day, lab capacity the ability to handle those tests was 156,000. Then, over the next couple of weeks, demand soared, with 163,000 tests processed in one day. On september 10th, capacity was 161,000. It would have gone up a bit over the next few days, but it still shows how tight things have become. 0ne Health Expert told me all this should have been anticipated a few months ago. The surge in demand for testing as we enter autumn was extremely predictable. Particularly because we expected covid cases to increase again as autumn comes, which we are seeing they are, but also because we were expecting covid like symptoms from conditions such as the common cold and flu to increase, too, and both of those combined for an increased demand in testing. Back injuly, people were being actively encouraged to get tests. If youre just worried, if youve got a temperature, youve got a cough or you are just not quite sure that you feel right, the sensible thing to do in this covid world is to go and get a test. Now its very different. Ca pacitys much tighter and the message is that only those with symptoms like High Temperature should book a test. Confusion over what to do may well have added to the recent surge. Hugh pym, bbc news. Health officials in the north west of england have warned that the coronaVirus Testing system there is at breaking point. So great is the demand for tests, that some hospitals in bolton, wigan and the wirral have warned people with symptoms to stay away saying there are no tests at their accident and emergency departments. And tonight officials in the north east of england say theyll impose new restrictions by the end of the week. More on that in a moment but first our Health CorrespondentDominic Hughes reports from bolton in the north west of england. In bolton today, some had been able to book a test, but reports suggested that didnt last long. Testing capacity ran out in bolton and many of the other worst affected areas. 0thers never made it past the front gate. Even in the town with the highest infection rates in the country, theres confusion about how to get a test. Turned me away, said you need to go online and book an appointment, but nobody ever told me that. It wasnt clear online or i didnt know. We could be spreading it. We havent got a clue. Its difficult. If you cant get a test, what are you meant to do . I tried this morning on the computer. I couldnt get through. My room, bedroom, tv there. Ryan gladwell has been stuck in his bedroom for seven days, isolating from his baby son and partner. Hes got all the key symptoms of covid 19, but for a week now, hes been unable to book a test. It is chaos. You cant have a testing system that, when it needs to be called upon by any member of the public, no matter what their age, demographic, whatever, they should be able to get a test wherever they are in the country. I cant understand why its going on so long. Here in bolton, the town that has the highest infection rate in the country, this Testing Centre seems to be working relatively smoothly. But the government has put extra resources into Testing Centres in hotspots like this so there are more slots available. But the infection rate across the north west of england has risen dramatically and that is putting real pressure on the system. Tracing those who have been in contact with people who test positive is the other key part of the programme and that, too, is facing problems. In Greater Manchester they want to use fire, safety and Community Police officers to do their own contact tracing. Test, trace and isolate is not working well enough for Greater Manchester at the moment. We have only a small number of weeks to fix it before we get into the really tough time that lies ahead in the autumn and into the winter. Testing, tracing and isolating are vital elements in containing covid 19. This evening, in the worst hit areas of the uk, it looks like this strategy is facing real problems. Last night a local hospital in bolton appealed to people to stay away from the a e department after more than 100 arrived seeking swab tests because they couldnt get tested locally, but those stories have been spread across the north west, we have spoken to people in lancashire and in merseyside and on the wirral, all of them with stories about the frustration of not being able to get tested. Dominic, thanks for joining able to get tested. Dominic, thanks forjoining us. And as we mentioned a short while ago the bbc understands that parts of the north east of england will be subject to new coronavirus restrictions later this week. 0ur correspondent fiona trottjoins us from northumberland. Do you have details of what the new restrictions could mean . The local authorities have asked for restrictions on visiting peoples homes with some exceptions, curfews ona and homes with some exceptions, curfews on a and other venues at ten oclock at night, and Table Service only, and more concern over testing arrangements curfews on pubs. Frustration was expressed because they had asked for a mobile testing unitand they had asked for a mobile testing unit and that was diverted somewhere else at the last minute, and we also understand nonessential public transport is also being considered. All those measures, we understand, these local authorities have asked for, they are newcastle, gateshead, north and south tyneside, sunderland, County Durham and northumberland. That is a huge area, around 1. 8 Million People might be affected, and there has been a sharp increase in cases over the last couple of weeks, and sunderland at the moment has the highest number in the moment has the highest number in the region. 72. 8 new cases over the past seven days per 100,000 people. What they are saying also is that although the age of people that they have seen recently, that number of young people with the virus has dropped, it is going up again, the average age is increasing and they are saying that is a cause for concern. Any measures introduced are expected to be midnight on thursday. Many thanks for the latest in northumberland in the north east of england. In south wales around a quarter of a million residents in the borough of Rhondda Cynon taf are also facing tougher coronvirus restrictions following a rise in infections. From tomorrow evening people will only be able to leave the area for work or education purposes and all bars and restaurants will have to shut by 11pm. 0ur correspondent Hywel Griffith is in pontypridd with the latest. What has led to this . Just a week ago the Health Authorities gave people here what they said would be their final warning, people here what they said would be theirfinalwarning, comply people here what they said would be their final warning, comply with social distancing or face a lockdown, but the cases have kept rising and tomorrow the lockdown comes into force. The Welsh Government says it is down to the actions of an irresponsible minority, not as we have heard young adults being blamed here, but people in their middle age, a0 and 50 year olds, and one example given by the Health Minister was a cluster which was down to a group of members from a social club in the county who had gone on a jolly, on a bus trip to the doncaster races, stopping at several pubs along their way, and it is said they are responsible for a significant cluster and transmission within this community. From 6pm tomorrow the community will have to be on pause, no one allowed in or out on as they have a valid reason. This is the second local lockdown in wales and the first was in the neighbouring county of caerphilly, and a small glimmer of hope, possibly the numbers they are slowing down. Then again, there are other counties in wales where they are watching and waiting to see four numbers there. For. Are watching and waiting to see four numbers there. For. Thanks for joining us. Gavin williamson, the education secretary for england, told mps today that children should only be given a coronavirus test if they display the known symptoms. The government has announced that from tomorrow there will be a dedicated advice line for schools, nurseries and colleges if the event of a new case of the virus. 0ur education correspondent Elaine Dunkley reports. These children are feeling fit and well and ready for school, but Hertford Manor primary has had a confirmed case of coronavirus. A3 children and four members of staff are at home, self isolating. Weve got a whole year of this, im convinced of that, and we need to have better testing, access to testing, so parents arent pushed all over the country. Results need to come back quicker. At the moment, were seeing tests take as long as four days. Im feeling absolutely fine. Im showing no symptoms. Mrs lawrence teaches children in year two and also does supply work. Shes found getting a test difficult and is currently at home. It felt like fastest fingers won the test. We tried on saturday night, we couldnt get anything. We tried on sunday morning, we had to go through the whole thing again. As a supply teacher, i wouldnt be earning any money at all. As a contracted teacher, im earning money, but i cant do the job that i want to do. This is the time of year when children catch colds and sniffles. The problem for parents is recognising when it could be coronavirus. The guidance to schools is a child should be at home if they have a new, continuous cough for an hour or three coughing episodes in 2a hours. A temperature and a change in taste and smell are also symptoms. People only with symptoms are the ones that should actually be doing the testing, so if a child and their contacts have been sent home, its not that all those children that are sent home should be getting the testing. Children have been back at school for just a matter of weeks. Parents are worried about the disruption. It is quite hard to keep up and quite hard to know what is right and wrong. Generally, i think there is a feeling you have to get back to life. It can be very difficult at the minute. Luckily, my wife is working from home just now, so we can do different drop offs and pick ups for the kids. The government has launched a new service for schools to report cases of coronavirus, but teachers are warning that it is testing which is vital to keeping schools open. Elaine dunkley, bbc news. The latest official figures show there were 3,991 new Coronavirus Infections recorded in the latest 2a hour period. That means the average number of new cases reported per day in the last week is 3,286. And 20 deaths were reported of people who died within 28 days of a positive covid 19 test, and that means on average in the past week 13 deaths were announced every day, taking the total number of deaths across the uk so far to a1,68a. 0ur Health Editor hugh pym is here. We have looked at these testing figures and we were talking about capacity and the rest today and the number of new cases as well. So what is your overview of where we are . That latest daily reported case number, almost a000, is the highest since this latest spike began in early september, and it comes out today when the World Health Organization today when the world health 0rganization says it is increasingly worried about case numbers in europe and more people going into hospital seriously with covid 19, including those under 50. And it is pointed out that this is before the flu season. More testing will be needed just at a time in the uk when the testing system is severely stretched, as we have heard. The Prime Minister has made it clear quite a bit more capacity is about to come on stream, four of these new mega laboratories, called lighthouse labs, two and annexing weeks, but the institute of biomedical science has set the whole thing is shrouded in secrecy, they wa nt to thing is shrouded in secrecy, they want to know more what will happen in these laboratories. Borisjohnson said he did not want to see a Second National lockdown and it would, had disastrous financial consequences, but ministers are ready to move with local restrictions, the north east coming up later this week. Hugh pym, oui coming up later this week. Hugh pym, our Health Editor, with the latest. Borisjohnson has told mps he believes the eu may not be negotiating in good faith with the uk. The Prime Minister was trying to explain why hes brought a bill to overwrite parts of the brexit deal that he signed with the eu injanuary. Earlier in the day the Northern Ireland secretary Brandon Lewis had told mps he believed the eu was acting in good faith. The government has reached a compromise with some conservative mps over the controversial new bill, and mps will be given a vote before the powers could be used. 0ur Political EditorLaura Kuenssberg has the story. From any angle, pressing questions for the government. Why havent you sorted out testing, Prime Minister . Where are all the tests . What happened to childrens exams . And would ministers really break the law . Meet lord keane, until tonight one of the governments most senior lawyers. Sure, downing street would never do that. The present bill does not in itself constitute a breach of International Law. Except last week this caused total turmoil inside the tory party and disbelief in the eu, as ministers planned to unpick part of the brexit deal that has already been written into law. Yes, this does break International Law in a very specific and limited way. Unable to square that circle, lord keanes future was in the balance. Earlier today, surreal, as the Prime Minister couldnt answer. Could you tell us whether the advocate general in scotland is still or not . Im afraid, mr benn, all i can tell you really, conversations on that matter are still continuing. After that, lord keane did great, and with tasting, saying he could not find respectable arguments to justify the governments plants which wouldnt take a deal that has already been signed into law. Yet the government has managed to stave offa the government has managed to stave off a rebellion in the commons, promising mps they would have more ofa promising mps they would have more of a say before ministers push that controversial button. That will not make theatre assistance in the lords disappear and does not change anything with the european union. Rather than curling tempers, as talks with brussels stumble on, the Prime Minister was happy to up the anti. Now, do you think the eu is negotiating in good faith . I dont believe that. You dont . So, why did the Northern Ireland secretary tell the Northern Ireland select committee that, in his opinion, the eu is negotiating in good faith . Well, it is always possible that i am mistaken and perhaps. Right. Perhaps they will prove my suspicions wrong. Whoever you listen to what this side of the channel, the attitude of the government has frustrated the other. The uk and the eu can both play rough, but there is real surprise in brussels. This agreement has been ratified by this house and the house of commons. It cant be unilaterally changed, disregarded or disapplied. This is a matter of law, trust and good faith. Faith na resolution with brussels is limited tonight. Faith in government can be fragile. While north america is going through its worst dry season on record with wildfires blazing in parts of the west coast, south america is also experiencing fires burning out of control. In the amazon they look set to be at least as damaging as last year when the spread of the fires caused an International Outcry. But it s notjust the amazon . The world s largest wetlands, also in brazil, called the pantanal . Are suffering a similarfate. 0ur south america correspondent katy watson now reports, from para, the state worst affected by the fires. Above the canopy, unmissable signs that the amazon is burning. But its on the ground where the damage has been done. This virgin forest gone forever. This is one of dozens of fires we have seen while driving through the forest today and this is a specially protected area. Clearly, few people are paying attention to the fact that a fire ban has been put in place after the International Outcry we saw last year. You wonder what hope there is when the government says that the fires dont even exist. For this man, the fires are all too real. A cocoa producer, he shows me where the neighbouring cattle farm burnt its land a few weeks ago. And nearly destroyed his livelihood. Translation they set fire to the fields after the decree was introduced. I dont know why they didnt comply with the law. We often ask that. They must have special contacts. They know that they can commit the crimes and they arent afraid of anything. Small farmers like him face powerful opposition, though. With the backing from the president , the agricultural lobby is more formidable than ever. And they keep burning. Yet Jair Bolsonaro remains defiant. He slashed the budgets of brazils environmental agencies, instead putting the army in charge of protecting the rainforest. And earlier this month he publicly called Environmental Ngos a cancer. The president has problems with democracy. He cant deal with people that have different opinions. The cancer in the future of brazil is the Government Action against the environment. Is notjust the amazon, though, thats burning. Further south, the Worlds Largest wetlands, known as the pantanal, is also ablaze. Exacerbated by the worst drought for almost half a century. Its home to rare species like jaguars. Those who have survived are badly injured so many more did not even stand a chance. Jair bolsonaro sees the amazon as a cash cow, a way for brazilians to prosper, but the way its going, this is what the future will be, the slow death of the worlds biggest forest, and time is running out for one of the most unique places on earth. Katy watson, bbc news, in the amazon. Inflation last month fell to just 0. 2 the lowest rate in almost five years. The reduction from 1 injuly reflects the impact of the the rate at which the prices for goods and services increased dropped to 0. 2 in august from 1 injuly. Two sisters who were orphaned in the wake of the Manchester Arena bombing have paid tribute to their parents at the Public Inquiry into the attack. Marchin and angelika klis had gone to collect their daughters from a concert when they and 20 others were murdered in may 2017 when salman abedi detonated his device. 0ur north of england correspondent Judith Moritz reports. Of the many tragedies of the Manchester Attack are the children left without parents, and the parents who have had to bury their children. Lisa lees was murdered. She doted on her two daughters, lauren and india. They say she was their role model. My life has not been the same since losing my mum. Just the thought that she will never see me walk down the aisle or see my boys grow up or see any of my sisters life milestones is a daily emotional battle. All i can do now is help my mums memory live on and be there for my sister and family. My mum lit up all our lives and is missed every hour of every day. The klises were a happy family of four. Teenagers aleks and patrycja went to the pop concert. Their parents, marcin and angelika, went to collect them and took this photo was taken just before the bombing, which killed them both, orphaning the sisters. I have had to grow up quite quickly and deal with things that i never imagined i would ever have to deal with. And our lives have been turned completely upside down. We havent just lost our parents, but we have lost our best friends and protectors. The Ariana Grande concert was full of children and their mums and dads. It was a bombing aimed at families and at the young. The devastation it has caused is felt by every generation. 18 year old Georgina Callander had just passed her driving test. Her whole adulthood was ahead of her. Her mother lesley now robbed of seeing her daughter grow up. If you think time is a healer, then you are sincerely mistaken. If you have not had the experience of burying your own child. You belong in a special group, you see. Your children are not to be buried before their parents. 22 people gone, each murder leaving a family bereft. Their lives were full ofjoy, now there is only grief and emptiness. Judith moritz, bbc news, manchester. Germany has announced plans this week to accept more than 1,500 migrants following the fire at a Detention Centre on the greek island of lesbos which left thousands without refuge. The tragedy was a reminder of the scale of a crisis which has seen vast movements of people fleeing war and poverty. Five years ago at the height of the migrant crisis, the bbcs fergal keane brought us the extraordinary story of Nujeen Mustafa, a syrian refugee who crossed europe in a wheelchair. Fergal has been talking to nujeen to see how her life has changed. Whatever happened to Nujeen Mustafa . An extraordinary teenager in a tumultuous time. Id love to be an astronaut, to go out and see. And find an alien, yes. I want to meet the queen, yes. Born with cerebral palsy, nujeen escaped war in syrias aleppo and travelled 1a00 kilometres to reach the greek island of lesbos. When i met her on the hungarian border in 2015, surrounded by other refugees, nujeen was exhausted, but irrepressible, a girl whod learned english by watching soap operas. You should fight to get what you want in this world, so. Yes, its a journey for a new life. Hungary shut its doors to them, so nujeen and her sister nasrine pushed on across the balkans to a Detention Camp in slovenia, where i found her at her lowest ebb. Nujeen, do you know where youre going . I dont know. Im lost, really. Five years on, im on my way to meet nujeen in the german city of cologne. Hey hey he laughs delightedly. Oh dear i wish i could hug you, but i cant. Oh, my god. Not with social distancing. Memories flooded back. On that border, all those years ago. That day, where the magnitude of the whole situation just hit me. Germany welcomed a child who experienced prejudice because of her disability in syria. Even if some dreams have been deferred. I definitely still want to meet the queen, and i definitely still want to be an astronaut. But, you know, since ive been enrolled in school i found out that im absolutely terrible at maths, so i might have to resort to plan b. The experiences of the refugee road defined nujeens life. To help the victims of war and hunger, shes studying to become a psychologist. And shes become a prominent campaigner for disabled refugees, even addressing the un. People with disabilities are forgotten in times of peace. What do you think we expect in times of war . Her calls could not be more urgent. 0n lesbos, where nujeen first reached europe,
