Showers will be happy and thundering in the west, and plenty blustering. More details on about ten minutes. Thundery. Its monday 5 october. Our top story President Trump has briefly left the hospital where hes being treated for coronavirus to greet well wishers who were gathered outside. The impromptu appearance, which mr trump described on twitter as a surprise for patriots, came after it emerged that his condition is worse than was first suggested by white house officials. 0ur north america correspondent david willis has more. The us governments medical experts have advised coronavirus patients to stay in their room and only venture out if its medically necessary. Not this patient. Accompanied by secret Service Agents in protective gear, President Trump embarked on a slow drive around the Walter Reed Medical Center to wave to supporters whove maintained a vigil there since he was admitted three days ago. He teased the trip on twitter after paying tribute to those whove been treating him. So, its been a very interesting journey. I learnt a lot about covid. I learnt it by really going to school. This is the real school. This isnt the lets read the book school. And i get it. And i understand it. But something he hasnt learnt enough. But some think he hasnt learnt enough. An attending physician at walter reed, drjames phillips, described the drive by as an active political theatre that could cost the secret agents involved their lives, that the irresponsibility is astounding. Following several days of confusion and contradiction surrounding the president s condition, further details have emerged. Despite saying his condition continues to improve, his medical team confirmed that his blood oxygen level dropped twice in recent days and that they gave him a steroid typically recommended only for the very sick. Pressed about how their information had conflicted with that from the white house, the president s personal physician acknowledged he painted a deliberately rose tinted picture of his patients condition. I was trying to reflect the upbeat attitude that the team, the president that his course of illness has had. I didnt want to give any information that might steer the course of illness in another direction. And in doing so, you know, it came off that we were trying to hide something, which wasnt necessarily true. What is true is that the president is being aggressively treated with a cocktail of drugs, as well as an experimental antibody therapy, and a course of remdesivir, which curbs the virus ability to multiply. These include dexamethasone, a steroid tested in the uk, it works by calming the immune system but is rarely used on patients who are experiencing only mild symptoms of covid i9. Indeed, guidance from the World Health Organization specifies that dexamethasone is recommended for the treatment of those with severe and critical covid i9, and particularly, those on ventilators. And despite being on a five day course of remdesivir, the president s doctors say he could be leaving hospital later today. With the president grounded, his democratic rival remains on the Virtual Campaign trail. Senior democrats say they hope the president s diagnosis will change his attitude towards the coronavirus, but that remains to be seen. David joins us now from los angeles. David, how has the American Public reacted to the way mr trump has handled his illness . How is this going down with the American Public . I have to say there has been widespread criticism of the president s actions on social media. Indeed, a visiting doctor at the walter reed hospital, doctorjames phillips, described the president s drive by is an political theatre that could cost the secret Service Agents involved in their lives. He said that because the president ial limousine is hermetically sealed to guard against the possibility of chemical attacks. The risk of covert i9x chemical attacks. The risk of covert 19 x mac covid i9 transmission in it is as risky as it gets and he described it as insanity. The white house as this was appropriate and appropriate measures were taken including checking with the Health Experts but i have to say that the first lady, melania trump, also diagnosed positive, was asked why she hadnt visited her husband and she hadnt visited her husband and she said simply because she didnt wa nt to she said simply because she didnt want to give the agents who would drive her their exposure to the coronavirus. It would seem that she gets it but perhaps her husband doesnt. Gets it but perhaps her husband doesnt. David, thank you very much. That is something we will be looking at throughout the programme. The number of people with coronavirus in england is 16,000 higher than was previously reported because of a Technical Glitch. Public Health England say the cases were not entered into the National Computer system until the weekend causing a dramatic spike in the numbers. 0ur Political Correspondent chris mason is in westminster. Chris this will surely raise more questions over the governments ability to test, track and trace. It is significant because it has several knock on consequences. When we we re several knock on consequences. When we were first reporting the daily totals of positive cases just a couple of days ago, we now know that number was much lower than it should have been but there is an additional, more important twist to all of this. People who are asking for tests and getting tests at the tail end of last month were getting them as normal and crucially they we re them as normal and crucially they were getting their results as normal but the data wasnt then being passed on to be put into the system and published and so, those positive people who had had a test and had the virus, their contacts were not being traced either. Thousands upon thousands of people who came into contact with those who went on to test positive were not then traced by the test and trace system in order to be told to self isolate because of their potential exposure to the virus and of course, in that context, they may have then come down with symptoms and had been spreading it when if the system had worked they wouldnt have been. Significant consequences in the practical sense, and in the political sense as the government grapples with trying to maintain Public Confidence as we travel towards the autumn and winter and the expectation as the Prime Minister says that it was a bumpy road ahead. Heading towards half term as well, some of the papers are talking about it. The traffic light system. What can you tell us . This isa system. What can you tell us . This is a plan that has been kicked around privately amongst Health Officials in the last couple of weeks, not yet announced but the idea is to make in england the system more easy to understand. Because we have this Patchwork Quilt of different rules and regulations that are constantly changing all over the country, that would have a 32 over the country, that would have a 3 2 your system and where you lived would fall into all of those tears from the most to the least severe and something in between. Covid i9. In the hope we would be better able to understand what was happening where we were and where we might want to travel to. Chris, as always, thank you.

We will be talking to a number of guests throughout the morning about that. Watching you walk into the studio after your virtual marathon was a bit entertaining, a bit like a bundaberg. It was an extra ordinary atmosphere, waking up early in the morning to go and drive to our starting point, we saw someone running along the road in the dark. We asked if he was doing the virtual marathon, and all sorts of people all over the world were doing it. You could do it wherever you like. I did it on and off road marathon, which was not a very intelligent thing. And you did it with one of your pals from namibia. Thing. And you did it with one of your pals from namibialj thing. And you did it with one of your pals from namibia. I think i sort of misled him slightly. I said would you like to come for a run, i am not sure he knew it was a marathon. It was brilliant, it was an amazing thing to have done. I am in agony but i did finish the marathon, so that is good. I have done the London Marathon, but not in london. I moved some very big boxes around. Well done to everybody, if you are feeling a little bit sore this morning, you are not alone.

There is nothing quite like the cinema experience, but its future could be in doubt. Nina has all the details on this one for us. Whats going on here, nina . Good morning, thats right. There is something so special about the cinema experience. But could it be in danger of disappearing . Cinemas shut their doors in march along with all other non essential businesses. They reopened in england from 4 july, with the other nations following soon after. It has been a struggle for venues to make money. Restrictions mean its a maximum group of six. Masks must be worn when people arent eating. And no late night showings films must start before 10 00pm. And then the second problem what films are there to show . Blockbusters are vital to cinema. Death on the nile and wonder woman have been delayed. Some like Disneys Mulan have gone straight to streaming services. And then over the weekend the news that the big one, no time to die, the 25th bond instalment, wont be released until april. A massive blow to cinema. Is there still a hunger to get to the cinema . We asked film lovers in manchester. I think it was november last year. Gosh, it was quite awhile ago, i am not a massive cinema going person, unfortunately. Last year, december.

There are just a few weeks left of the governments furlough scheme and businesses are having to make tough decisions. Cineworld, one of the uks largest chains, is considering a temporary closure of all its screens. That could impact 5,500 uk jobs. And smaller independent cinemas are also vulnerable to the drop in revenue. The peckhamplex in south london is one of those to have closed the doors, saying they cant reopen until the bond film is out. Last week, the government announced 42 independent cinemas had been allocated the first £650,000 from the culture recovery fund, with more to follow, plus there is also cash coming for filmmakers. But experts are saying that might not be enough if the distributors and big studios dont take a gamble on releasing their movies. We are facing a situation whereby between now and the end of the year there are almost no significant films. And at a time when 80 of uk cinemas are open, we know that the overwhelming majority of people who returned to the cinema have found it an enjoyable and a safe experience. It isa an enjoyable and a safe experience. It is a source of huge frustration to cinema operators that as it were they feel they have done their bit but the films are not being provided to them to entertain their audiences.
