H. S. Message is timely. I think the warning from the director general is is a wise move at this point in time as then as think we want to do is to have people be complacent let go of all the preventive measures that they need to be practicing in the hope of having a vaccine down the line this will be a big mistake which we need to do is to continue to lead double our efforts to do what needs to be done now rather than let go of those measures and hope for vaccine in the future i would take an optimistic stand and i would say even if we find an effective and safe exene and this does not mean that everyone will get the vaccine immediately and we have to start planning today our Public Health systems have to start planning now for the availability of such a vaccine so we can prepare communities we can prepare people so that they are willing to get the vaccine because it does not help to have an effective and safe sex scene sitting on a shelf we have to get to the vaccine to the largest numbers of people around the world as quickly as possible the u. K. Government says that its rolling out tests for the corona virus that can provide a result within 90 minutes millions of these are to be sent to hospitals care homes and look for a tree is as early as next week some Health Experts though are voiced concern over how reliable the new tests will be a Persons Health but as to says that swift testing could help make the country safer these technologies which deliver these rapid turnaround tests will mean that we can expand Testing Capacity further and into settings where for instance in in schools we have currently we have survey testing so we have some testing that would be able to be expanded but also looking at looking across the community where we want to test case people who dont have symptoms to find out where the viruses somehow gago has more for us now from outside Thomas Hospital in central london. You have some 5800000 test should d. N. A. Based tests which are going to begin to be rolled out by next week and this will be working in tandem with the 450000 or so nasal swabs and tests that are current being carried out to the point of this of course is to ramp up the testing and to get ahead of that before the seasonal flu kicks in of course at the moment this summer in the Northern Hemisphere it is high tourism season we are seeing spikes occurring in certain countries in certain regions of countries throughout europe as well which is raising alarm bells and of course what a lot of governments are worried about the u. K. Government is worried about is trying to get ahead of this of any of this by having an effective testing regime. Now both who are behind the testing say that controls have already been put in place so they can avoid issues such as false negatives but with that in mind its going to be absolutely crucial to have. An absolutely accurate tracing system as well so as to isolate those who have been affected in order to kind of quell any surges that could occur the Financial Security of millions of americans is hanging in the balance as politicians debate for the relief for the unemployed for about 3 months a 600. 00 weekly payments has been a lifeline for people whove lost jobs democrats and republicans have so far failed to agree on how the program should continue to expire on friday lets go live now to washington our White House Correspondent kimberly how could it is that for a so what where things where things stand right now kimberly as far as these negotiations are concerned.

S. President donald trump considering unilateral action not clear how this would happen whether it would be through executive order but the president may take action to see that those 600. 00 a week payments continue its one thing that he says is important to him as well as this seeing that this continuation on a moratorium on a vixens in other words people that are paying their rent cant be kicked out of their home or their apartment well these negotiations continue those protections did expire on friday and both sides both democrats and republicans seem to be an odds about how to move forward with the program so as they continue to talk we are hearing rumors of potentially this unilateral action in the midst of all this though even if a deal were worked out what were hearing is that wouldnt be voted on until the end of the week possibly early next week which is little comfort to the millions of americans that saw those benefits and as of last friday i would want 3 months ago now more or less to election day what is the president been saying about all of this.
