情態助動詞 A2

how afraid a Corona virus should we bay that well.

Clearly, Corona virus is a huge challenge to the country on dhe.

形容詞最高級

On behalf of everyone, I want to send our deepest condolences to the family into the loved ones of the patient who died today with Corona virus.

And I'm sure that that will be a worrying moment for lots of people on.

And I feel the responsibility deeply for getting the government response to this right.

The government on the only people who need to respond.

It's actually something all of us can play a part in on dhe.

It's perfectly reasonable for people to be worried.

Now, of course, for the majority of people, if they catch Corona virus, then it'll be a mild, relatively mild disease on dhe.

And so, from that point of view, for most people, this will be something akin to getting the flu if they get it.

But obviously it's also having some very significant effects, both on the economy, in terms of people, how they manage their daily lives, and then for a for a small proportion of people, we estimate around 1% of those who catch it, then it is fatal.

And so it is a very serious consideration.

And the thing that makes it more difficult is that this virus, this disease, is new.

And that means that none of us have the natural antibodies that we have to something like a flu.

So it is a serious problem for the country, and all of us need to play our part and can play our part in making sure that we as a country and as a world, respond as a CZ well as we possibly can.

And you can ask, how worried do you I'm not personally particularly worried because I feel that I don't fall into the category where I should be majorly concerned.

From what I have read that it will be for the majority of us severe cold or flu like symptoms.

And yet a lot of what you read implies that we should almost be barricading the doors.

Okay, Okay, well, we're going to get into more specific things in a moment.

I think it's such a good question, Jill, because everyone I know is wondering how to react to the news that we're getting the first death today.

And the fact that Cove it is is dominating the headlines is because every single person in the UK should be changing their behavior today.

The most important thing is hand washing.

The hand washing will not reduce your chances of catching it to zero, but it will dramatically slow the spread and slowing the spread is very urgent because the number of cases doubles every few days.

In a few days time, we will have 200 on that.

Doubling may well keep on going on as it doubles.

As Matt said, a small proportion of those people not necessarily the small proportion that died but maybe 5%.

Maybe 10% will need intensive care, or at least a high dependency unit.

And those beds are in short supply of the moment in the N.

And so the more we can spread things out, the more likely it is that we can provide high quality care, toe everyone that needs it and keep mortality as low as possible.

That's the urgency, so everyone should be invested.

You should be hygienic in terms of catching and killing, sneezes and coughs in terms of wiping surfaces.

I think everyone should be self monitoring.

And if you're concerned, even more than normal, avoiding infecting other people and then I would say I know, man, I probably don't really disagree with this.

I think the government has been very, very sensible of providing good quality, evidence based information.

Personally, I like not handshaking, not because it made in itself stop the spread enormously, but because it makes you think when you walk into a room we all just met kind of backstage on Guy wouldn't shake anyone's hand, and it made it intensely awkward, never almost suddenly talking about Corona virus.

Then you start to get out the alcohol gel and think about it.

There's loads of other things you could do.

You can do about a wave, a foot tap a knuckle bump.

However you want to greet people, but all of it, I like an elbow bump, but that makes people conscious of hygiene.

And sand will be demonstrating all those things once, Margaret, however, Jules, Lassie half rate would be I don't think we should be afraid.

But I think we should be wary and cautious on dhe and look for sound information.

One of things that strikes me forcibly is that this is going to illuminate all the problems we've already got in our health service, which we know is underfunded and all those things on debt will bring a lot of that home.

And so I think this is going to be apart from anything else.

Gonna be appear where people can learn about each other about what the country's problems are, what we need to do to resolve them on that are single in itself, be important.

But so I don't think we should go about in fear and dread.

But I don't think we ought to be city I Tim.

I noticed that all the loo roll has gone in my local supermarket.

Well, I don't know why people have gone for the hero.

I don't know, want to know, But it's all gonna give her love.

And I'm gonna be a black market in its eye on the government's getting it about right, which is to walk this fine line between getting people ready on getting people conscious of the way they're behaving, but also not causing too much alarm, because there's always a risk that you generate so much alarmed that that actually does more damage than the virus itself.

We don't want our way of life to be changed forever.

That that's always what one is conscious about trying to avoid.

I want to be out to go back to shaking hands.

I'm not going to walk around doing that all day.

I want things to go back to normal as soon as possible, and therefore any short term inconvenience that we have to accept.

But the goal is to keep calm, carry on, not hysterical, because that's kind of what defines Britain.

They Well, I think I think like you for myself.

I'm young and healthy, and if I get it, there's a very good chance will be okay.

But I am worried for my particularly grandparent's people, who are more vulnerable people who perhaps don't have the same resilience financially as I do.

I've been doing a lot of work in the last few days writing to Matt, in fact, about statutory sick pay, thinking of those who have jobs on zeros, contract in the gig economy, who have toe actually think hard about?

Do I go to work today, or do I do the right thing for other people, which is too self isolated?

They have those symptoms and they've been in contact with someone and all credit to the government.

They've been listening, and they have now changed those rules.

So we are trying to all work together on this, and I think that's really important that actually, politicians at a time like this do our jobs on DDE.

Talk about the most vulnerable constituents that we have.

The other people, I really do worry about our people like the homeless on.

I was talking to people in the sector today who are concerned, and I say this talking to Matt.

They haven't had guidance about what to do for people, particularly rough sleepers.

And you have to think if you don't have a home, how do you self isolate?

And I see he's writing that down, and I hope you're going to take that back.

Because actually, at a time like this, we perform a really important job, which is to ask the right questions on behalf off the people that we serve on.

The job of the government, I think, is to respond in Listen, okay, There's a lot of very practical questions that many of you have vast.

So I'm gonna do kind of feel like for want of a better phrase, the quick fire round to you, Matt, if I may.

So a quick question and a reasonably free France.

You want to kick us off with the first death today?

Should we now be preventing large gatherings at sports events and theaters where we're looking into the exact science off?

What the approach should be as the numbers grow was still in the phase where we were trying to contain this virus, but also exactly As Xan said, delaying the onset has a big benefit in terms of the impact on the N hs.
