A motorcade ride that many say breaks the code that 19 protocols and britain struggle to coltan influx of migrants crossing over from france is putting pressure on the government which promised to take back control of the borders after breakfast and. Im sara kelly welcome to the program the 2020 nobel prizes kicked off a short while ago with the naming of the winners in the fields of physiology or medicine this year it is a trio of. Harvey j. Alter Michael Hotel and charles am rice the panel at the institute in stockholm awarded them the prestigious prize for their discovery of the hepatitis c. Virus the medicine prize carries a tickler sick. If it can see this year with the corona virus pandemic highlighting the importance of medical research for societies and economies around the world and well have more on this in just a moment with our colleague Derek Williams from d. W. Science but 1st lets take a look at a situation in the United States there are mixed messages coming from washington after u. S. President donald trump briefly left the hospital where he is being treated for coke at 19 he took a motorcade to greet supporters outside in a move that appeared at odds with protocols for patients with covert 19 now while his medics say that he could well be be well enough to be discharged on monday other physicians have their doubts. President trump alive and well appear to be the message behind his short right outside the walter reed Military Hospital where hes being treated for a cold that 19 the wisdom of his outing to greet supporters was immediately questioned leading physician said President Trump disregarded Standard Guidelines for coronavirus patients and put the health of others at risk. In a short video posted on sunday trump claims that this experience was teaching him a lot about the coronavirus anybody so its been a very interesting journey i learned a lot about covert i learned it by really going to school this is the real school this is in the lets read the book school and i get it and i understand it and its a very interesting thing going to be letting you know about trumps doctors painted an optimistic picture of the president s health suggesting that he might be back at the white house as early as monday works of course but the medical details provided were contradictory and a vase of some information including drops in the president s oxygen levels and the decision to administer a steroid treatment point to a more serious case of coalwood 19 than what his physicians previously disclosed. Trumps supporters who organized the boat rally on marylands Eastern Shore were certain that President Trump would make a full recovery. Course i was worried about our president the love our prize and. I think hes in the best behaved and hes got a great doctors and i think hell be just fine hes a Strong Healthy me and so i think the timing is good but it sounds like hes recovering and getting through well i dont think i have too much of an impact on the election. With the election just one month away trumps camp is struggling to push his campaign forward pulls show that joe bidens lead in the president. Still race has grown since last weeks debate under quarantine the president cant hold rallies to fire up his base and his Coronavirus Diagnosis has made it even harder to divert attention from his much criticized handling of the pandemic. And lets get more now we are joined by a hansons president of the German Interdisciplinary Association of Critical Care and emergency medicine welcome to the program and thank you for joining us there are reports that we have heard that the president s oxygen levels dropped twice what does that tell you about his condition is from the far distance and only tells that the capacity of the president s law was perhaps affected by the virus disease beaucoup at 9 toon it could also. Well have a high grade fever on friday as reported together with high grade fever and possible affection of the lump it could be that the Office Separation goes on and theres a very important measure to look after patients with copd 19 so i think this measurement of up to them dropping off today will let the doctors change their treatments and they should change the treatments so we know that hes tested positive for kovan 19 how long should somebody with covered 1000 be in the hospital or in quarantine so that they dont infect others because weve seen the president leaving the hospital briefly to greet his supporters what do you make of that. I think that as the american physician said i think that theres no not quite a responsible that i think of could quite irresponsible to send of a message like that on the other hand the question of for me regarding the quarantined of the president from that is he started with symptoms and he was positive on friday i think so at least the should be 14 days in quarantined and that means that he should stay low on a day that any context should be very close to the measured and that. Never has to taken to prevent infection that think the sign to see him in a in a car driving through the streets i think thats quite irresponsible i think he shouldnt do that and the doctors should told him that not a good idea and we have heard from the doctors at Walter Reed Medical Center they have indeed criticized the u. S. President for that behavior behavior how much of an influence does a medical team have on such behavior of patients. I think thats a political question from the side from the point of view of the octave when they really meant something for a patient and then they said dont do that and the patient is the one who is responsible for his actions so i would tell a patient dont do that and then the patients and no i will do that and the lives lost both go on the street i think i would say ok he is responsible for his own behavior and i told him not to do that and i think thats the way to deal with patients autonomy and the president from his own autonomy and he acts political and not the responsible regarding his health and you have of others professor will hansens president of the German Interdisciplinary Association of Critical Care and emergency medicine thank you for taking the time to speak with us thank you.

Tests came back negative but speaking after defeat mid he should not have played the match. Right now here in the studio Jonathan Crane joining us. To talk us through what happened here. Does it really sara given or the kind of coronavirus measures in place these tournament vera was already feeling 3rd round match on friday and he was struggling during the warm up before the match with yannick sinner but he said he hoped he could get a quick and easy victory but similar is a very good player often coming young player and of course that didnt happen as you said during the match the doctor came out gave him some medication he was pointing to his throat and yeah he lost in 4 sets and after the match we had this striking admission from him.
