The government itself hAd sAid thAt, but i think they Are being extremely cAutious, And the fAct thAt the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/britIsh-government'>BritIsh GovernmentA> Is now reviewing the situAtion Is not A coincidence. Also, theres the fAct of becAuse of the indiAn vAriAnt, which they hAvent hAd here, thAt mAy be A concern, And looking AheAd A little bit, its Also the cAse thAt portugAl will be receiving some 12,000 fAns, mAinly from englAnd, for the uefA <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/chAmpions-leAgue'>ChAmpions LeAgueA> finAl, And they mAy ActuAlly wAnt to see how thAt goes, they Are sAying thAt All of those fAns will come Across, they will be kept in sepArAte zones in the Airport, effectively trAvelling in A bubble And hAving to go bAck home within 24 hour Is, so it does look for now As though thAt Is the limit of people coming from englAnd At Any rAte.

These little frAgments of rock might not look like much, but they contAin some of the oldest mAteriAl in our solAr system, dAting to more thAn A. 5 Billion yeArs Ago, before the plAnets even formed. Its like holding A prIstine time cApsule thAt could shed light on our very beginnings. Pieces of the meteorite Are being sent to scientIsts All Around the world. X rAy studies here will reveAl exActly whAt it Is mAde of. The mAteriAls in there Are bAsicAlly the ingredients, the building blocks, of our solAr system, so it contAins things like reAlly simple orgAnic mAteriAls, it contAins minerAls thAt contAin wAter, And so its A reAlly importAnt tool for understAnding how we ended up with An eArth we hAve, why do we hAve oceAns here on the eArth, And why did we end up with life here .

Our top <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/story-minIsters'>Story MinIstersA> Are considering bringing forwArd second doses of coronAvirus vAccines to tAckle A rIse in cAses linked to the indiAn vAriAnt. Its one of A number of options being considered, including increAsing <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/surge-testing'>Surge TestingA> in higher infected AreAs locAl lockdowns Are Also not being ruled out. The lAtest public <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/heAlth-englAnd'>HeAlth EnglAndA> dAtA shows thAt cAses of the vAriAnt in the uk hAve more thAn doubled in the pAst week, As <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/chArlotte-wright'>ChArlotte WrightA> reports. An urgent response to the rApidly increAsing cAses of the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/covid-vAriAnt'>Covid VAriAntA> thAt originAted in indiA. Surge testing in 15 AreAs of englAnd. In bolton, A rApid <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/response-teAm'>Response TeAmA> Is going door to door. And As concerns grow About the speed of the spreAd of thIs vAriAnt, the government hAs now sAid it could not rule out fresh locAl or regionAl restrictions to try to suppress it. It Is A vAriAnt of concern. We Are Anxious About it. It hAs been spreAding. At the moment, there Is A very wide rAnge of scientific opinion| About whAt could hAppen, but we wAnt to mAke sure thAt we tAke All the prudentiAl or the cAutious steps now thAt we cAn tAke. Public <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/heAlth-englAnd'>HeAlth EnglAndA> hAs recorded more thAn 1,300 <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/uk-cAses'>Uk CAsesA> of the indiAn vAriAnt thIs week, more thAn double the 520 recorded the week before, wit<A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/h-m'>H MA>ost in the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/north-west'>North WestA> of englAnd, And some in london. All right, A shArp scrAtch. So fAr, vAccines remAin highly effective. MinIsters Are considering reducing the time between the first And second jAbs, And AdditionAl <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/vAccine-clinics'>VAccine ClinicsA> hAve been set up in blAckburn. But despite cAlls by locAl leAders, the progrAmme hAs not yet been opened up more widely to All Adults over 18, leAding to concerns About whAt meAsures will be used. WhAt worried me todAy wAs the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/prime-minIster'>Prime MinIsterA> rAIsing the spectre of locAl lockdowns. I cAn Assure you my view on those hAs not chAnged At All. We would be very concerned About the government putting blAckburn, bolton, Anywhere, to be honest, under locAl restrictions when the rest of the country Is unlocking. The Amount of infections linked to thIs vAriAnt Is still relAtively smAll, but the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/heAlth-secretAry'>HeAlth SecretAryA> hAd sAid the situAtion Is being monitored cArefully, And there would be no hesitAtion About tAking further Action if needed.

Weve been heAring thIs morning how cAses of the indiAn vAriAnt in the uk hAve more thAn doubled in the pAst week, And the government Is tAking Action to try to stop the spreAd. The locAl leAders of <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/bedford-And-bolton'>Bedford And BoltonA> Are cAlling for An urgent <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/vAccinAtion-progrAmme'>VAccinAtion ProgrAmmeA> for All Adults over the Age of 16. AdAm mccleAn hAs been finding out how residents in both towns Are feeling About the lAtest developments. Bedford Is one of 15 AreAs with <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/surge-testing'>Surge TestingA> in plAce to stop the spreAd of the vAriAnt, with plAns to bring forwArd second doses Among the options being considered. We do think thAt the indiAn vAriAnt Is probAbly the dominAnt strAin now in bedford borough. I think it Is time the government looked AgAin At their strAtegy And got us some vAccinAtions, we need to vAccinAte everybody in bedford right now. ThIs Is not going to stop in bedford, it will go elsewhere. AdditionAl <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/vAccine-clinics'>VAccine ClinicsA> Are being set up in blAckburn, And here in bolton, the AreAs with the highest infections over the lAst week closely mAtch AreAs with the lowest vAccinAtion rAtes. ThIs <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/vAccine-bus'>VAccine BusA> offers jAbs without An Appointment. All communities here Are being encourAged to tAke up the vAccine. One of the biggest things over the pAst month of rAmAdAn wAs the hesitAncy of vAccine tAke up And hesitAncy of tAking the test, becAuse people were unsure if it invAlidAted their fAst, putting something At the bAck of their throAt or hAving An injection, but now thAt rAmAdAn Is <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/overAnd-eid'>OverAnd EidA> Is here, the messAge Is reAllyjust to get vAccinAted And get tested to get thIs under control. LocAl leAders Are cAlling for Action to Avoid future lockdowns. People here Are uncertAin of the future. StArt keeping A sAfe dIstAnce from eAch other. Well, if theres going to be An impAct on everyone, there should be A lockdown. Just As everybody thinks they cAn go on holidAy, theyll All be stuck bAck in bolton. ThIs business wAs due to fully reopen next week, A plAn now up in the Air. Theres only so long A business cAn survive. Yes, the grAnts hAve helped mAssively, the furlough hAs helped mAssively, but its still mAking A dent in <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/the-business'>The BusinessA>. Theres only so long we cAn stAy closed for. Its now been A week since the indiAn vAriAnt wAs lAbelled As one of concern, with just dAys to go until the further relAxAtion of restrictions. AdAm mccleAn, <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/bbc-news'>Bbc NewsA>. We cAn speAk now to professor rAvi guptA, who AdvIses the uks chief medicAl officer, As A member of nervtAg the new And emerging respirAtory virus threAts AdvIsory group but Is speAking to us todAy in A personAl cApAcity. Good morning. Morning. How concerned should we be good morning. Morning. How concerned should we be About good morning. Morning. How concerned should we be About thIs good morning. Morning. How concerned should we be About thIs indiAn should we be About thIs indiAn vAriAnt And how it Is spreAding . I vAriAnt And how it Is spreAding . I think the first thing to note Is thAt we hAve become used to hAving new vAriAnts Are rIsing in different plAces, And thAt Is predicted now from whAt we know About the biology of the virus. It cAn sit in people And cAuse chronic infections, And thenit And cAuse chronic infections, And then it cAn mutAte And spreAd, so thIs Is now A new thing we leArned About thIs virus. ThAt Is A fAct we hAve delivered. But the greAt news Is thAt we hAve very efficAcious vAccines with very high levels of Antibodies And other protective molecules, And so the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/vAccine-roll'>VAccine RollA> out hAs been remArkAbly successful in thIs country, given high levels of protection AgAinst All the vAriAnts. There hAve been documented cAses of the virus ArIsing in vAccinAted people in indiA, but none of those people becAme ill, they hAd mild symptoms, And we Are worried About thAt becAuse there will be people in the community who hAve not responded so well to be vAccines And they Are vulnerAble, we wAnts to limit the spreAd of new vAriAnts becAuse they mAy gAin further mutAtions And become more of A concern. Right now, the surveillAnce Is working well, And we wAnt to keep An eye on whAt Is Around, we hAve detected thIs imported infection And we Are ticking the relevAnt meAsures, the government will do whAt it needs to to protect its people And to prevent further lockdowns, And thAt Is the key goAl. 50 further lockdowns, And thAt Is the ke.

But we hAve leArned in the pAst thAt does not necessArily work, becAuse of course there Are infections going on All the time, people Are still moving About And there Is potentiAl for people Are still moving About And there Is potentiAlfor them to move About even more, so locAl meAsures mAy not ActuAlly be so successful At contAining the spreAd of A virus becAuse it hAs probAbly AlreAdy dIsseminAted to other AreAs, so i think the mAin thing Is thAt we rAmp up think the mAin thing Is thAt we rAmp up the vAccinAtion cAmpAign, we highlight sociAl dIstAncing meAsures, And potentiAlly consider extending the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/relAxAtion-dAte'>RelAxAtion DAteA> for next mondAy. 50 extending the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/relAxAtion-dAte'>RelAxAtion DAteA> for next mondAy next mondAy.

CertAinly we need to vAccinAte down to younger people, even below the Age of 18 At some stAge, but im not sure thAts doing it in locAlIsed AreAs where the outbreAks Are hAppening As necessArily going to be the best thing, becAuse of course the vAccine will tAke lets sAy two to three weeks to tAke effect, And by thAt time the infections mAy hAve gone to other AreAs, And you mAy wAnt to use the vAccine And those other AreAs to prevent further spreAd in different pArts of the uk. 50 i think some cAreful <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/decIsion-'>DecIsionA>s need to be mAde, i Am not A mAthemAticAl modeller, i Am not A proper epidemiologIst, sol think thAt those <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/decIsion-'>DecIsionA>s will be informed by mAthemAticAl modelling And Also where the infections Are, becAuse we hAve to remember there Is A delAy of vAccines kicking in. I certAinly dont know As much As you, but lockdowns work, dont they . 50 but lockdowns work, dont they . So why wouldnt A locAl <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/lockdown-work'>Lockdown WorkA> . The fAct Is thAt lockdowns do work, but other locAl lockdowns will hAve An impAct on spreAd of everyone else Around those AreAs Is going About their normAl business, then of course it will hAve An effect At A locAl level, but those gAins At locAl level, but those gAins At locAl level, but those gAins At locAl level mAy dIsAppeAr once the lockdown Is lifted. And of course, there wAs the Issue of stigmAtIsAtion, certAin communities And sudden AreAs of the uk where they felt they were being treAted unfAirly, sol they felt they were being treAted unfAirly, so i think my personAl view, thAt locAl lockdowns mAy not be the solution to thIs, And if we Are going to do lockdowns mAybe you need to be A bIt Wider.

Bens been looking bAck At whAt went wrong. Youve been getting some lovely stories from people with some quite interesting memories of debenhAms. People hAve such A connection with things like woolworths when it dIsAppeAred, whAt you went And therefore, people tAlking About debenhAms, too, did they buy pAns in there, bedding, things like thAt . Not mAny people ActuAlly seeing clothes, it Is more the homewAre stuff, which wAs usuAlly done in the bAsement. There Arent mAny <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/high-street'>High StreetA> icons left, As debenhAms prepAres to close for the finAl time. A sAd dAy for stAff And customers, but will it reAlly be mIssed As the shutters come down for the very lAst time . DebenhAms hAs been A <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/retAiling-stAple'>RetAiling StApleA> for more thAn two centuries. It wAs founded in london in 1778, but soon becAme A household nAme, A stAlwArt of the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/high-street'>High StreetA>. FAst forwArd to 2020 And the Announcement thAt All 12A stores would close, with the loss of 12,000 jobs. So whAt went wrong . Ive bee looking bAck At the hIstory of the iconic brAnd. Of course its sAturdAy the 27th. For yeArs, it wAs A dAte in the diAry. You reAlly cAnnot Afford to mIss the sAle At debenhAms, it stArts tomorrow. But its biggest ever sAle cAme lAst december, debenhAms itself, on offer At A knockdown price, but even then, there were no buyers for the fAmous stores. It left 12,000 stAff out of work, including jAcqui, who spent more thAn hAlf A decAde behind the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/mAke-up-counter'>MAke Up CounterA> At the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/firms-brAnch'>Firms BrAnchA> in Aberdeen. We closed the doors on chrIstmAs eve, thinking we might be closed for A few weeks And we would get A chAnce to reopen. It becAme AppArent injAnuAry thAt we were going to be mAde redundAnt. Sorry, it Is just reAlly hArd to be told thAt the store Is going to close. We were hoping thAt we would be Able to open AgAin And resell Any stock, And then it becAme AppArent thAt wAsnt going to hAppen, And we would hAve to go in And pAck up All the counters, never to reopen AgAin. You just cAnt even begin to imAgine how Awful it Is. ThIs weekend, the stores thAt did stAy open to sell off stock will close for the finAl time. It mArks The End of more thAn 200 yeArs of retAil hIstory. It All begAn in 1778, when <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/williAm-clArk'>WilliAm ClArkA> opened A <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/london-store'>London StoreA> selling fAbrics, hAts, And umbrellAs. A few yeArs lAter, <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/williAm-debenhAm'>WilliAm DebenhAmA> gAve <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/the-business'>The BusinessA> hAs money, And eventuAlly hIs nAme, And it expAnded Across the country. The chAin boomed After the first <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/world-wAr'>World WArA>, And by the 50s wAs the countrys biggest depArtment store. At its height, hordes of shoppers would clAmour for A blue cross bArgAin. BAck in the dAy in the 90s, <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/shopping-At-debenhAms'>Shopping At DebenhAmsA> wAs A reAl fAshion experience. JAsper conrAn, julien mAcdonAld, bettyjAckson, these were designers whose clothes A lot of people would only hAve seen on the cAtwAlk At <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/london-fAshion'>London FAshionA> week. To be Able to wAlk into debenhAms And see rAil upon rAil upon rAil of All these exciting brAnd nAmes. But As fAshions chAnged, the stores didnt. Dont mIss our mid seAson sAle. StArts mondAy. New rivAls like primArk, zArA, And <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/h-m'>H MA> were quicker And cheAper. Once its strength, debenhAms big expensive stores becAme A burden, feeling unloved And lost, And with debts mounting, it wAs pAssed from owner to owner. SeverAl times, it cAme close to collApse, but in december, thAt time rAn out. It needed A lot of investment. We ActuAlly hAd holes in the roof, we hAd to put trAys down to collect the rAin, thAts how bAd it wAs. But debenhAms hAd no money to reinvest, so it wAs like, pAtch it up And keep going. When we were told thAt debenhAms definitely did not hAve A buyer, it wAs in the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/press-thAtjohn-lewIs'>Press ThAtjohn LewIsA> wAs closing for good As well, And thAt meAnt thAt the city hAs no depArtment stores, nowhere for people like myself to work. More thAnjust A job, we were A community of people. Friends, we hAd customers who becAme friends over the yeArs.

We hAve lived with thAt pretty much for the lAst nine months And it hAs cAused reAl dAmAge to peoples lives. They Are not in the sAme position As we were in 2020. There Is growth of the virus but we hAve not seen the numbers of people going into hospitAl becAuse he older rAnge hAs been vAccinAted And it Is successfully protecting them.

Often people in the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/i-locAlity'>I LocAlityA> know best stop whAt Is the reAson why the indiAn vAriAnt Is spreAding so quickly in pArticulAr AreAs . Suggestion hAs been, for exAmple, these multi generAtionAl households, somewhere in there lies some of the Answers Around whAt Is hAppening stop whAt do tell you . Mr; hAppening stop whAt do tell you . Ii experts sAy hAppening stop whAt do tell you . Ii1 experts sAy it Is hAppening stop whAt do tell you . Ii1 experts sAy it Is linked to housing, As you correctly sAy. It Is Also linked to peoples work. In A plAce like bolton, there will be A higher number of people injobs like bolton, there will be A higher number of people in jobs they will not be pAid if they hAd to tAke time off work either becAuse they Are ill or they Are being Asked to self IsolAte. ThIs hAs been A problem All the wAy through the pAndemic. WhAt Are people do in thAt situAtion . They Are in A reAlly difficult situAtion. We hAve sAid to the government, you must fix thIs Issue of self IsolAtion support, people who cAnnot occupAtionAl sick pAy to support their income. They need Another form of support to tAke time off work, pAy the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/rent-And-feed'>Rent And FeedA> theirfAmilies. ThIs Issue rAmbles on And on. Pilots hAve not worked. Government needs to fix thIs Issue. It Affects communities Across the country where there Are greAter numbers of people who Are in low pAid insecure work. The lowpAid insecure work. The <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/government-lowpAid'>Government LowpAidA> insecure work. The government Is lowpAid insecure work. The government Is not low pAid insecure work. The government Is not ruling out Any meAsures, including locAl lockdown Is, you will know thAt very well. In Amongst the meAsures he sAys they hAve brought in, they Are increAsing the supply of vAccines to the AreAs specificAlly Affected And increAsing the number of nurses. 100 more nurses to bolton, for exAmple. I content with the meAsures they hAve Announced so fAr . Content with the meAsures they hAve Announced so fAr . Announced so fAr . Are you content . Announced so fAr . Are you content .

They Are good moves, im not going to sAy they Are not, pArticulArly increAsing vAccine supplies. The government needs to go further And Allow the vAccine supplies to be used in vAccinAting the younger working Age populAtion, the younger working Age populAtion, the student populAtion. ThAt Is whAt Is needed if we Are to mAke the most decIsive And effective intervention into the situAtion we cAn right now. ThAt Is why i Am sure we will hAve conversAtions with the government. We recognIse the pressure on <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/vAccine-supply'>VAccine SupplyA> All over the country. We hAve been moving At A pAce where we treAt All AreAs equAlly.

We AppreciAte the extrA nurses And sAid testing, All the meAsures the government Is putting in.

It wAs A rAre meteorite thAt crAshed onto A drivewAy, And now its going on dIsplAy At the nAturAl <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/hIstory-museum'>HIstory MuseumA> when it reopens on mondAy. ScientIsts hope some of the recovered frAgments could reveAl how life stArted on our plAnet, As our <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/science-correspondent'>Science CorrespondentA> <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/rebeccA-morelle'>RebeccA MorelleA> reports. BlAzing Across the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/night-sky'>Night SkyA> At 50,000 kilometres An hour, the drAmAtic ArrivAl of the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/uk-spAce'>Uk SpAceA> rock, And some of it ended up here, burnt into the wilcock <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/fAmilys-drivewAy'>FAmilys DrivewAyA> in winchcombe, gloucestershire. Look At the incredible dent in thAt thIs Is tArmAc, so its A solid drive, Isnt it . Its the kind of thing thAt if thAt hAd hit you. It would hurt. It would reAlly hurt, wouldnt it . Now, though, the fAmily hAs A chAnce to see the meteorite AgAin. It hAs A new home Alongside the nAturAl <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/hIstory-museum'>HIstory MuseumA>s most prized minerAls. Its mind blowing. ThAt wAs on our drive, And now its in the nAturAll <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/hIstory-museum'>HIstory MuseumA> in london. I cAnt describe it. And now weve got lots of people who will be Able to come And see it, so its just wonderful. Why did it lAnd on our drive . It could hAve lAnded A few metres AwAy And lAnded in the hedge, And we would never hAve seen it. There Are so mAny unbelievAble coincidences. There Are thousAnds of <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/spAce-rock'>SpAce RockA>s in museum collections, but the frAgments of the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/winchcombe-meteorite'>Winchcombe MeteoriteA> Are exceptionAlly rAre. Theyre from something cAlled A cArbonAceous chondrite, the first one thAts been found in the uk. Winchcombe Is very speciAl becAuse it Is one of the most prIstine mAteriAls thAt we hAve AvAilAble on eArth to study, And A thing thAt Is reAlly good About thIs pArticulAr cAse Is thAt we sAw it fAll, so we cAn use thAt viAble to firebAll to kind of trAck bAck the trAjectory, work out where in the solAr system it cAme from. These little frAgments of rock might not look like much, but they contAin some of the oldest mAteriAl in our solAr system, dAting to more thAn 11. 5 Billion yeArs Ago, before the plAnets even formed. Its like holding A prIstine time cApsule thAt could shed light on our very beginnings. Pieces of the meteorite Are being sent to scientIsts All Around the world. X rAy studies here will reveAl exActly whAt it Is mAde of. The mAteriAls in there Are bAsicAlly the ingredients, the building blocks, of our solAr system, so it contAins things like reAlly simple orgAnic mAteriAls, it contAins minerAls thAt contAin wAter, And so its A reAlly importAnt tool for understAnding how we ended up with An eArth we hAve, why do we hAve oceAns here on the eArth, And why did we end up with life here . ScientIsts hope thIs <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/spAce-rock'>SpAce RockA> could Answer these fundAmentAl questions thAnks to the flAsh of luck thAt brought it down in the uk.
