In the u. K. Millions of workers and National HealthService Staff have become eligible for coronavirus testing if they show symptoms of the illness the british governments made testing a key part of its strategy to fight the pandemic but its facing criticism over the slow rollout of testing lets get more now from the u. K. Rory chalons is in london for us rory i understand youre one of the drive through testing stations in london just give us a brief overview of this move towards testing so many front line workers. Yet with a view that you can see behind me at the moment well in the background its twickenham rugby station the home of english rugby in normal times of course that building there would be hosting high level high profile rugby matches and pop concerts etc but of course none of that is going on at the moment so the car park here has been turned into one of the several mobile Testing Centers a century drive through senses people can come in their cars theyll pull in here theyll go around a queuing system and those tents in the background they will have. Taken and in a few days they can receive a result for whether they have or havent got covert 90 now. Announcement from the government is that. The type of people who can now use these centers has just increased massively previously it was it was no says it was is now anyone who is considered to be an essential worker and that includes Police Offices that supermarket workers thats people in the Justice System is teaches is delivery drivers any of those people who think that they might have the disease well they come local government websites they can enter their details. And they will be sent by text or email an invitation to either come down to one of these places here or perhaps to receive home testing kits although as we said at the moment those are in fairly short supply so this expands that the amount of people who can get testing to maybe 10000000 or so rory this of course is good news as far as some of the key frontline workers are concerned that the government still under a lot of pressure about this scale of testing for the public generally that is able to do. Yes it is and National Scandal here one of the several surrounding seen of course as a supply. Which is another one. Yet testing has been has been pretty sluggish here certainly when you compared to countries like germany which is much greater emphasis on testing so there is a sense here that the government has been playing catch up it has pledged to reach 100000 tests being done every day by the end of the month now lets look at where we are the moments the number of tests actually done in the u. K. Yesterday was i think around 23 and a ha thousands the government is saying that it has the capacity to be doing 50000 a day but then it gets into questions of some antics and thats one thing that the government is being picked up on by the opposition when you say capacity well that doesnt really mean the number of tests being actually doing a day so lets concentrate on that lets concentrate on the number of tests actually being performed and it still seems that the government is languishing behind we dont know yet whether it has the chance of reaching its target of 100000 a day by the end of the month. Bringing us up to date the situation in the u. K. Really thanks very much indeed. Indonesias governments announced it will temporarily ban all air and sea travel until june to control the covered 900 a break. The measures come into effect on friday the start of the muslim holy month of ramadan despite the government warnings of social distancing many are still attending prayers indonesia is the worlds most populous muslim nation. Because you know this is ramadan worship the holy reward is different if you pray at a mosque and one of the key is not touching other people so during the prayer i keep distance with other people not touching that we take care of ourselves so hopefully this way we can keep worshiping and avoid in fiction so with many countries facing locked down restrictions the pandemic is forcing some was lims to change the way they mark ramadan question mark about reports. For hundreds of years muslims used to go out into empty fields looking at the sky to figure out when the done begins these days the clerics here in pakistan and elsewhere use telescopes to get 1st sight of the new moon once spotted ramadan starts. Its the holiest month in the calendar when muslims stop eating and drinking from sunrise to sunset. The fasting allows worshippers to devote themselves to their fate and remember the sufferings of the poor. But during the unprecedented coronavirus emergency muslims are abandoning many of the dance traditions and rituals. They wont be able to invite their loved ones the neighbors or the 4 to join the eve. Fast breaking meal known as if. 1000. 00 spreads restrictions are being forced governments have closed borders imposed curfew years lockdowns and encouraged social distancing to contain the contagion islams holiest site in mecca is usually teeming with worshippers from all over the world during ramadan its closed this year as part of the sunday governments campaign to curb the virus spread getting people everywhere to observe social distancing in one medan wont be easy the highlight of ramadan is the night of destiny where muslims believe their holy book the koran was 1st revealed to the prophet mohammad and where the gates of heaven are open muslims spend the night in contempt lation and prayers in mosques a ritual they are being asked to perform at home this time islams most sacred month meant to encourage unity praying together and breaking their fast together may end up being a month of relative solitude. Well there are fears infections in pakistan could rise rapidly during ramadan the governments decided to keep mosques open and people gathering to pray must follow social distancing measures but doctors have urged the government and Muslim Leaders to reverse that decision is joining us now from the capital islamabad come on is there any indication that the government and the religious leaders are going to be persuaded by the doctors. Well the doctors have certainly made a play and theyve said that the government and the clarity must reconsider that decision because of the threat that despair and that make go to spiral out of control as far as pakistan is concerned and they say they will not be able to handle that situation now or earlier the buggers arnies imposed a lockdown they closed all the mosque and ordered people here stairway and brick home however then they cleared a critic day took matters into their own hands started defying go in or does that put pressure on the government that they would not listen to the government and that of course led to our dog talks between the president and the cleric the government then a buckling under pressure and allowing them to hold these congregational prayers including that all repaired which i had that night and in the month of ramadan and that of god attracts a large number of people that said really a is that every days social distancing measures on your job and what we have been able to find today and that people have not been paying any attention to that some of these religious leaders who are seen in large crowds announcing the beginning of ramadan and that of course showed that did no attention being paid to Safety Measures so indeed a lot of the british there meant as far as the people are concerned and apprehension that this could all lead to an escalation and that number of corporate 19 cases head and focused on is there any indication come all the medical facilities and medical teams inside pakistan are preparing for an upsurge in covered 1000. 00 cases as a result of the. These rules the safety rules being ignored in the main. Absolutely because the frontline again they spend dead make theyre already tear down because the number of doctors have been infected and what they thing is that if the number of very high the medical philip did will be overburdened their doctor is. Getting rich and theyre getting the. Maximum caution in order to. Get it done poorly equipped medical infrastructure. And obviously the doctor daughter of rage because of the 10 day lives and their families that. Mojados talking to us from islamabad come all thanks very much indeed i want to bring in money here is a spokeswoman for the Muslim Council of britain and shes joining us from london thank you very much indeed for giving us your time i understand that the Muslim Council of Great Britain has issued its own guidelines for people marking ramadan how concerned are you that it will be very difficult to enforce those guidelines if people are determined they are going to worship together. So thank you to me in the u. K. Weve been known to look down for a number of weeks now and i think that they say this has become part of everyday life we all used to these people understand the magnitude of the situation that we find ourselves in and frankly weve seen a pretty good response by the communities taking this seriously and finding ways of adopting life in particular adopting mum of on still be spiritually im socially uplifting whilst under these conditions weve seen most across the u. K. Whats high thats the over the last few weeks to bring their services on line to the can still deliver the essential spiritual guidance during ramadan to their congregations and weve seen so many muslim led charities to prop up but that during the last few weeks to be able to help those in need it was that in communities i want to ask your opinion about what. The role of faith leaders should be at this time particularly under these circumstances with the spread of the virus weve had a great deal over the last few months from the political leaders around the world and yet faith leaders around the world seem to be very quiet very subdued or at least theyre working locally as opposed to nationally or globally do you think that faith leaders have a role to play in order on a global scale when were in the midst of this virus crisis. I think it is imperative that faith leaders you know the 10 leader is a huge 10 and a i think think leaders have a huge role to play within the communities themselves they can only really be responsible or really be seen to impact that communities and in the u. K. Weve seen a huge response by faith leaders and within the communities in the congregations and weve seen. Safely does reach out to the people who attend that most in the number of ways that julie to be able to check in with them make sure that theyre ok and help them through the anxiety that many people are facing during this pandemic and also respond to the need that you cant to adopt funerals and burial procedures why do you think it is that there is such a significant difference in the way that people observe the social distancing customs particularly at this time in Different Countries around the world as you say of course the u. K. Has been going this through this for some time but we just heard from come off that in pakistan is a very different situation ensued people seem to be ignoring the social distancing warnings it is tricky and i think in the u. K. Because there have been so many elements is made by the government to make it easy for people to social distance to. Look down with all the financial incentives an initiative that been given by the government to help people who are in need and who would struggle to stop working like weve been asked to do in other countries dont often have that luxury as in im going to money we appreciate your time thank you very much indeed for joining us on aljazeera.
