    Department for health and social care is late announcing the score. Must be some injury time added on.

    The spread of coronavirus in the UK is showing early signs of slowing, according to Prof Neil Ferguson, a key epidemiologist advising the government.

    Ferguson, whose modelling informed the government’s decision to impose a lockdown, said the data was showing signs that social distancing measures were beginning to work, although it has not yet had an effect on the number of daily reported deaths.

    He told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme: “In the UK, we can see some early signs of slowing in some indicators. Less so in deaths because deaths are lagged by long time from when the measures come into force.

    “But we look at the numbers of new hospital admissions today, for instance, that does seem to be slowing down a little bit now. It’s not yet plateaued as the numbers are increasing each day but the rate of that increase has slowed.

    “We see similar patterns in a number of European countries.”

    Ferguson also said that “maybe a third, maybe 40%” of people do not get any symptoms but there was no evidence to back up claims that the vast majority of people are asymptomatic.

    He said it appeared that 3-5% of people in central London could have been infected, but the figure may be higher in hotspots, while the figure for the country at large is more likely to be 2-3%.

    This is the same prat that initially said 250k deaths, readjusted to something like 25k and then done to 5.7k.... the same man who ordered mass slaughter during foot and mouth... **** knows how he's still in a job his contemporaries have slated him.,..,

    I understand the argument fully Leon... I really do, but as well as 4 planes a day coming in from NY unchecked into Heathrow, unless you quarantine on arrival for their own good as well as everyone else's how do do it. You're right, people won't go and do these jobs.

    Back end of this week, start of next week, will be real figures, as that’s 2 weeks from when the pubs shut & lockdown started.

    Sky News understands the rent-to-own retailer Brighthouse and restaurant chain Carluccio's have both collapsed into administration putting 4500 jobs at risk.

    Brilliant minds.... an interesting watch. The fear is that if a superpower comes up with the vaccine, the world would be held to ransom. So maybe the answer like Viagra (just as an example) is that there are other vaccines with efficacy sanctioned by different governments that are in circulation at a given time.

    Sitting watching you realise just how amazing some of these people are. If I could have had one question it would have been, in February this year AI found a new super antibiotic Halicin more or less overnight, having been given access to a small library of documentation using algorithms. 'This AB eliminated some of the most dangerous drug resistant bacteria on the WHO most wanted list'.... I wonder given that success if AI is involved in finding a vaccine for this virus...
