Despite the lockdowns and other covid restrictions, the uk has seen one of the the highest death tolls in the world. This morning, there was more encouraging news from the office for National Statistics the number of weekly deaths has fallen below the five year average for the First Time Since last august. 0ur health editor, hugh pym, has been looking at the numbers and some of the challenges ahead. The shadow of covid lingers in every community, the lives lost and livelihoods threatened and now, year on, there is increasing understanding of the scale of the impact compared to what was first predicted, with the virus proving more deadly. A Health Think Tank has calculated that on average, those who died with covid last up to ten years of their lives, that is based on Life Expectancy estimates, how long they might have lived. In total, one and a half million years of life have been lost in the uk because of covid. By comparison, in a bad winter, 250,000 years will be lost because of flu and pneumonia. It is a devastating bombshell that hit britain, as it hit many other countries, our loss has been much greater and our loss has been compounded by the Underlying Health of the population and the disparities between different groups, which covid has shown most deeply.

There was a big spike above the average in april, mainly because of covid death is shown in red, and another surge from last autumn, but now uk deaths have fallen back below the average for the First Time Since last summer. Vaccination programme is protecting more people from serious illness and reducing the risk of dying with covid. But some who have had the virus are still carrying a heavy burden.

Hugh pym, bbc news. The team behind the astrazeneca vaccine finds itself embroiled in another row over its trial data this time, in america. It comes a day after the Company Released findings from its us trials, suggesting the jab was 79 effective against symptomatic illness and 100 effective against severe forms of the disease.

This is a surprising and i unfortunate rail and it emerged Out Of The Blue when this independent team of scientists, overlooking the Trial Results in the us, issued a statement expressing concern that astrazeneca may have included outdated information which gave an incomplete picture about the effectiveness of the jab, that is a real scientific rebuke. Astrazeneca has said the interim analysis included results up to mid february and more up to date data that would be released within 48 hours, which it says are consistent with the findings released yesterday. So why does this matter . Well, Clinical Trials are the bedrock of medicine and it is vital that scientists and the public can be confident in the results. And rows like this risk increasing vaccine hesitancy. This jab already has an Image Problem in Continental Europe and in some ways, the study has been overtaken by events. More people are receiving the jab in the uk every hour and got it on this trial and the real world data has confirmed that the vaccine is safe, highly effective and is saving lives.

The latest government figures show there were 5,379 new Coronavirus Infections recorded in the latest 24 hour period which means, on average, 5,498 new cases were reported per day in the last week. The latest figures show 5,461 people were in hospital across the uk. 112 deaths were reported in the latest 24 hour period thats people who died within 28 days of a positive covid 19 test. On average, in the past week, 85 deaths were announced every day. The total number is now more than 126,000. As for vaccinations, more than 329,000 people have had their first dose of a Covid Vaccine in the latest 24 hour period, bringing the total to over 28 Million People more than half of the Adult Population. Over two Million People have had both doses of the vaccine. So, how have scotland, wales and Northern Ireland fared in the pandemic this past year, and what are the signs for the road ahead . In a moment, well hear from our correspondents in scotland and Northern Ireland. But first, to our wales correspondent, hywel griffith, with this assessment. Over the last 12 months, the welsh governments decisions have impacted more on peoples daily lives here than ever before. And it has done things differently in october and december, deciding to lock down, ahead of other parts of the uk. The impact of the pandemic has hit wales hard, with higher death rates than other parts of the uk. But the situation is improving. Today, for the second day in a row, there were no new reported deaths. Inevitably, how to unlock is what causes the most political heat for the welsh labour government, being criticised for not having a road map for the months ahead. How its handled this pandemic will be the focus of the senedd elections in may. Politicians here at the Scottish Parliament have been paying their respects. Nicola sturgeon said that almost 10,000 people have now lost their lives. But the difference this year is that we have the vaccine, and around half of the Adult Population have already had theirfirst dose. Now, scotland has been quite cautious when it comes to the easing of restrictions, but there is a route map out of this lockdown. The key date is the 26th of april, when the economy will begin to open up. Now, the country is also just about to enter a period of election campaigning and the Covid Pandemic is likely to feature very heavily in that. In Northern Ireland, the pandemic came along just months after the newly formed a Power Sharing government here had been re established, following three years of collapse. And almost immediately, they were dealing with a crisis like no other. Tensions here have often featured over the timing of lockdowns and reopenings. But Northern Ireland also has a lot to be proud of. The efforts of Health Care Workers has brought a sometimes divided place together. But now, the pathway out of this is a new source of frustration. Businesses here have no dates to plan for, like some other parts of the uk, and all the signs are that the executive is going to continue being cautious in the days ahead. And you can see a Live Bbc News Special Programme looking back at the past year and the challenges ahead on bbc one, at 7pm. From next week, anyone in england trying to travel abroad without a reasonable excuse could be fined up to £5,000. The government says the new laws, which mps will vote on later this week, are designed to guard against tourists bringing back new Coronavirus Variants into the country. But holidays abroad later this summer have not yet been ruled out. Caroline davies reports. Memories of Summer Holidays past. Snapshots of smiles. And small moments of family time together.

The intention is to stop the spread of new cases and variants which might put the vaccine roll out at risk. The proposed legislation could be in place until the 30th of june, but the garment says the timetable it set out in the road map last month still stands the government. When we might be able to travel internationally again is still uncertain. The first day to bearin still uncertain. The first day to bear in mind is the 12th of april, Thatis Bear In Mind is the 12th of april, that is when a report will be published that will set out some of the guidelines that could mean International Travel could restart.

If the government wanted these draconian measures, they should have been introduced back when International Holidays were first banned. It is more scaremongering. For those hoping to get away, the waiting is difficult, raising their hopes only to reel them back in again in the painful uncertainty of again in the painful uncertainty of a pandemic. Caroline davies, bbc news. The time is 6. 18pm. Our top story this evening. The anniversary of the first uk wide lockdown a minutes silence to rembember those who did not survive the onslaught of covid 19. Who takes care of the carers . We hear from the Southampton Hospital staff whove just worked through the toughest of years. Coming up on sportsday in the next 15 minutes on bbc news, we look back at the career of frank worthington, who has died at the age of 72, a Football Maverick and prolific goalscorer who played at over 20 clubs. Scotlands First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has won a vote of no confidence in the Holyrood Parliament with a convincing majority. It follows the publication of a report this morning which accused her of misleading a Parliamentary Committee looking into her handling of Sexual Harassment allegations made against her predecessor, alex salmond. Yesterday, a separate independent inquiry cleared ms sturgeon of breaking the ministerial code. 0ur Scotland Editor sarah smith has this report. Cleared by an independent enquiry yesterday, today Nicola Sturgeon has been found to have misled a Holyrood Committee and faced a vote of no confidence. No First Minister who truly wanted to live up to the ideals of this parliament should feel able to continue in post after having beenjudged guilty of misleading it. How can parliament have confidence in the words of a First Minister whose words have been found to be false . If you think you can bully me out of office, you are mistaken and you misjudge me. If you want to remove me as First Minister, do it in an election. She comfortably won the vote, but the report from the Holyrood Committee may be an ongoing problem. The report finds that the two women who made complaints against alex salmond were badly failed by this seriously flawed way the Scottish Government investigated the claims. But the msps on the committee could not agree on Nicola Sturgeons role. They split along Party Political lines with the snp members voting against the parts of the report that criticise the first minster. That i will tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Nicola sturgeon and alex salmond gave conflicting evidence to the committee. She firmly denies his claim that she offered to intervene in the harassment investigation. The report says her evidence is an inaccurate account of what happened and that she has misled the committee. It also said it was inappropriate for her to continue meeting mr salmond during the investigation, and that it is hard to believe Nicola Sturgeon did not know of concerns about inappropriate behaviour on the part of alex salmond prior to november 2017. Its a shame that a Committee Report of this nature has become tainted by very obvious political bias along party lines on some conclusions but there are reflections and the government has always said we made mistakes when it comes to the implementation of the procedure looking at complaints into alex salmond. To suggest that the committee is partisan when you have had united and independent and a labour member, conservative member, liberal democrat, i think the truth is that the members of the snp i were never going to be. Criticising a First Minister from their own party, whatever evidence we took. Nicola sturgeon will remain as First Minister for another six weeks at least. On may the 6th, it is up to the voters to decide should remain in office. With an election so close, its unlikely this row is over yet. Sarah smith, bbc news, edinburgh. Lets take a look at some of todays other news. The Unemployment Rate stayed broadly stable at 5 per cent between november and january according to official figures despite the latest lockdown. The data also shows that younger workers under 25 have been worst affected byjob losses since last february with hospitality and retail hit hardest. The United Nations says 400 people are missing, after a huge fire in a refugee camp in bangladesh. At least 15 people are known to have died in the coxs bazar settlement, where nearly one million Rohingya Muslims from myanmar have been staying. Its thought more than 45,000 have now been made homeless. And tributes have been paid to the former england striker, frank worthington, who has died at the age of 72 after a long illness. During his career, worthington made more than two hundred appearances for leicester city. A group of Trade Unionists convicted for picketing nearly 50 years ago has won a bid to clear their names at the Court Of Appeal. The group, known as the shrewsbury 24, included the actor Ricky Tomlinson. They were arrested while picketing during the 1972 National Builders strike, and charged with Unlawful Assembly and conspiracy. Dominic casciani picks up the story. A time of industrial strife, but also a moment of injustice, now only recognised half a century on. This was the 1972 National Builders strike that changed health and safety throughout the industry. Ricky tomlinson, then known as eric, was a plasterer and strike leader. He was among 24 men prosecuted for intimidating workers to down tools in shrewsbury. Four were jailed. And when they left prison, they began a campaign to clear their names thats lasted until today. Last month, lawyers of 14 of the men told the Court Of Appeal the prosecutions had been part of a government plot to break the unions. Today, judges quashed all the historical convictions. The builder turned actor says a politically motivated trial had destroyed lives. They put us in jail, they knew it was wrong, they knew it was wrong from day one. They knew the trial was rigged. This was a political trial. And it has been from day one. The government were involved, ted heath was involved, all sorts. And weve got documents to prove this, by the way. The Court Of Appeal didnt rule on the mens allegations that they were set up by a shadowy State Conspiracy but it did say their convictions were unsafe for one simple Reason Police had destroyed critical witness statements that could have exonerated each and every one of them. And this is the smoking gun, a document discovered in the National Archives proved witness statements had disappeared and eyewitness accounts of what really happened on the picket lines were never shown to the trials. The juries never knew the full facts. Anyway, where were you during the strike . Picketing. Picketing . Picketing your nose, you mean. Blacklisted from building sites, tomlinson turned to acting, from playing a unionist on brookside, through to the royle family. Im off to the khazi. Others were less lucky. Many never worked again. Six died, including des warren. Their families continued the appeals in their names. Today, finding justice at last. Dominic casciani, bbc news. While the nhs has been fighting the pandemic, its staff have also been living under the same restrictions as the rest of us. Theyve had to give their all at work and then try to keep family life going at home. Four staff from University Hospital southampton have been talking about the impact the last 12 months has had on them, professionally and personally. There were some days when you had to verify death after death and it was very hard detached from it. I have had a lot of mum guilt and a lot of professional guilt. The doctors told my family that i had only 40 chances of survival. Covid has told me to be more supportive with each other, and kindness, kindness, kindness. I want you to open those eyes for me. A year of high stress. Every patient that comes through the door, you dont know how they are going to be, and how quickly they are going to deteriorate. And then, come home at the end of a 14 hour day and wait, no, dont touch me, dont hug me, to the people you want to melt into because youve got to go upstairs and scrub your body. Are we 0k to sit with me . 0k, well do it together. Come on then. The children were getting into the habit of then ask me, is it safe to cuddle you, mummy . 48,50. Being made to start in the middle of a pandemic and having to learn on the job and having to adapt to a new city and a new culture, thats taught me so much and ive learnt so quickly. Do you know why you are in hospital . Covid. Yeah, covid. We had 15 deaths in two weeks and we would normally have maybe five and a year, so for the team, that is quite hard. Are you allergic to anything . I was tested positive for covid 19 and it was a weird experience when the ambulance took me to my own workplace and my own work colleagues were looking after me and i had way much more chances to leave the hospital in a body bag rather than on my own feet. My little soldier, because hes been through the wars. My most challenging moments are in my social life. Personal life. Yeah, because at work. You put on that uniform, you have that persona.
