過去簡單式

I want to tell you where we got two in our national fight back against Corona, the Corona virus.

to 不定詞

Today, the scientific advisory group for emergencies met to discuss the latest evidence on the spread of the virus on the effects of the measures we have already taken to slow its spread.

未來簡單式

And Patrick is gonna update us in a second.

About that, I want to repeat that everyone, everyone must follow the advice to protect themselves and their families, but also more importantly, to protect the wider public.

If you think you have the symptoms, remember the two key symptoms high temperature, a continuous new cough, whole household to stay at home for 14 days.

If one member of that household think so, he she has the symptoms avoid a ll are necessary.

Gatherings, pubs, clubs, bars, restaurants, theaters and so work from home.

If you can wash your hands, Onda, we were already announced in the last few days.

We will massively scale up our testing capacity in the weeks ahead so that we hit 25,000 tests a day.

Huge public information campaign is being rolled out.

So people get all the information they need.

And others were asking retired health care professionals to come back and help us cope.

To cope with this unprecedented challenge on dhe, we will continue, as we have from the beginning, to do the right thing at the right time and to follow the best scientific advice on dhe.

We come today to the key issue off schools where we've Bean consistently advised that there is an important trade off on Dhe.

So far, the judgment of our advisers has bean that closing schools is actually of limited value in slowing the spread of the epidemic.

And that's partly because, counterintuitive these schools actually very safe environments.

And in this disease and this epidemic, Children on DDE young people are much less vulnerable.

And hitherto, the advice has bean that we should keep schools open if possible in order to reduce the pressure on the N HS and on on all other public service is.

But I think you'll agree that I've always been very clear that this is a balanced judgment on one that we've kept under constant review.

Looking at where we are now, we think now that we must apply downward pressure further downward pressure on that upward curve by closing the school so I can announce today.

And Gavin Williamson is making a statement now in that in the House of Commons that after school's shut their gates from Friday afternoon, they will remain closed for most pupils for the vast majority of pupils.

Until further natures and I'll come toe, I'll explain what I mean by the vast majority of people's.

The objective is to slow the spread of the virus, and as I say, we judge it.

But of course, as I've always said, we also need to keep the n hs going on to treat the rising number of cases.

So we need health workers who are also parents to continue to goto work, and we need other critical workers with Children to keep doing their jobs to from police officers who are keeping us safe to the supermarket delivery.

Driver's social care workers who look after the elderly and who are so vital will be setting out Maur details shortly about who we mean whom we mean in these groups.

So we therefore need schools to make provisions for the Children of these key workers who would otherwise be forced to stay home.

And they also need to look after the most vulnerable Children.

This will mean that there would be far fewer Children in the schools, and that will help us to slow the spread of the disease.

And these measures are crucial to make sure that the, as I say the critical parts of the economy keep functioning and public service is keep functioning.

So we're simultaneously asking nurseries on dhe private schools to do the same.

Andi, we're providing financial support where it's needed.

We're making provisions to supply meals and vouchers for Children eligible for free school meals and where some schools are already doing this.

I want to make it clear that we will reimburse the cost.

And of course, this does mean that exams will not take place is planned in May and June, though we will make sure that people's get the qualifications they need and deserve for their academic career.

Now I know that the steps will not be easy for parents or for teachers, and for many parents this will be frustrating and it will make it harder for them to go out to work.

And of course, that's one of the reasons that we haven't wanted todo ahead on.

That's why we're now working on further measures to ensure that we support not just businesses, but also individuals and their families to keep our economy going.

As Richie Soon at the chancellor outlined yesterday, I also need to remind parents, as we've already advised, that Children should not be left with older grandparent's or older relatives who may be particularly vulnerable to fall into some of the vulnerable groups.

And I want to under that's gonna be difficult to, and I want to thank families for their sacrifice at this difficult time and I want to thank the whole country for the efforts that people are making to comply with these measures.

I particularly thank teachers head teachers, A ll, the support staff who keep schools going who are going to be able to make these exceptional arrangements work for the benefit of us all by looking after the Children of key workers, they will be a critical part of our fight back against Corona virus and as I've said, we will take the right steps at the right time.

Guided by the science, we believe that steps we've already taken together with those I'm announcing today are already slowing the spread of the disease.

But we will not hesitate to go further and faster in the days and weeks ahead on, we will do whatever it takes so that we beat it together.

And I'm not going to faceted toe Patrick to give an update from SAGES point of you.

Overriding consideration has always saved lives protect the most vulnerable people from this illness.

The vast majority of people have a mild illness, but some get a very severe illness.

The measures that were announced a couple of days ago, we already know a taking effect in terms of behavior so we can see that already that people are actually taking that very seriously and have made a difference and that's really important to carry on with that.

But the thing we must protect in order to achieve those AIDS off saving lives and protecting people is to make sure that the n H s intensive care capacity on the ventilator capacity is not breached.

That's what we need to keep looking at making sure we do not get to a position where that's breached.

As this moves fast, my alluded to this on Monday.

More measures will be needed to make sure that happens.

And right from the beginning we said schools or one of the things you could do, but they're less important than some of the others that have been taken.

But we now think with a stage where this extra bit is an important measure to make sure we stay under that critical protecting the N.

So that's the reason for now saying that this should go ahead at this time.

It's important to stress, and this is really critical.

It's not because schools are dangerous places for Children.

Children have a very mild or asymptomatic version of this disease in many cases, so they are the least at risk.

It's also not the dangerous place for teachers.

The reason for this is because of the effect it could have just to knock down further the transmission.

Put some breaks into the system off the transmission of this disease to bring it down, to protect those people who might get a much more serious version and end up in intensive care on a ventilator.

So that's the reason now it's important time to do it.

It's not instead off, and it can't supplement the other measures.

The other measures are crucially important on.

We all have our part to play to make sure that we may make those measures as effective as possible to try to drive us right down and make sure we stay below that critical threshold.

Thanks so much, Patrick Jenny, from your point of view.

So I think nothing very much further to add to those points.

This is not a change in the scientific position, which we have always taken forward.

It is very much a practical response at a critical time is both prime Minister and Sir Patrick has indicated, but very happy to answer any clinical questions that comes Okay, Axl.

Let's go straight to to you and for your questions on this.

Um, Prime Minister, Just in terms of further measures, 1/3 of the deaths and now in the capital of London buses is still full.

The tubes of full bars of for London is not listening to your advice.

When will we see wider enforcement to shut down London?

After quite difficult days and frightening news, something a bit more encouraging today.

You talked about getting closer to an antibodies test to tell us whether people have had the virus.

Could it be a game changer in helping us manage this disease and keep in our emergency service is running.
