the beds and equipment are ready Star for being recruited.

But it has perhaps a tribute to the N hs that so far no patients have arrived at the XL Centers Nightingale Hospital.

様態の副詞

Speaking remotely from Scotland, where he's recovering from Corona virus, Prince Charles acknowledged the amazing feat of putting this all together in nine days.

This hospital, therefore offers, is an intensely practical message of hope for those who will need it most at this time of national suffering.

And it was announced today that his mother, the queen, will make a broadcast to the nation on Sunday evening.

Across the country, other field hospitals like this are being prepared.

There is an urgency now the warning by experts that we are just two weeks behind Italy, another stay at home message from the prime minister himself still in isolation ahead of a sunny weekend.

Everybody may be getting a bit stir crazy, then maybe just a temptation to get out there, hang out on Dhe and start to break the regulations, and I just urge you not to do that.

The latest official figures are 3605 deaths across the UK to 5 p.m. Yesterday.

Yet there are time lags and hospitals reporting these and they don't include community death.

Pressure is to test now Maur and faster, and the health secretary acknowledged this yesterday, promising 100,000 day by the end of the month.

We've now got a commitment for 100,000 today, but we would like the government to go even further.

We want to see clear community testing and contact tracing because that's the way in which you break the chains of transmission of this virus.

That's how we connect escape what could be endless cycles of locked down.

So it's good that more testing is coming online, but we need a lot more of it, too.

10 days ago, he said, it ordered 3.5 million antibody tests to see if you've had the virus.

He threw out another extraordinary figure.

We have provisionally ordered 17.5 1,000,000 not 3.5 1,000,000 antibody tests, but as I've been absolutely clear all along, we could will only use them if they work, he clarified.

In the meantime, the government has now published a call for covered 19 complete tests, which can range from something like this to these samba to a rapid diagnostic test developed by a Cambridge University spinout company.

The test is the size of a coffee machine.

It only takes one sample at a time, but essentially you take a take a swab.

It's put into a fluid, which activates the virus immediate in five minutes that is then loaded into the machine.

And it's a closed system, so there's no risk of infection.

And then you get a read out at the end of it.

There's a camera installed it within the machine, which interprets the result for you.

And it's fed directly to an iPad, which is possible negative within 90 minutes.

The current PCR swab tests used on hospital patients and in these drive through N hs staff testing stations, can be highly unreliable, one front line doctor warned by as much as 30% not helped, he said, by the lack of personal protection equipment or P p, which means star for too nervous to take proper samples from the back of the throat in case the patient coughs.

Because these tests are as good as we have at the moment, but are not perfect.

And because there is this false negative rate.

The reality is that this can affect the quality and safety off the care we deliver to patients.

We're telling our junior staff now if a patient looks like they're infected and they have covert 19 then treat them as covert 19 regardless off the swab results back in this Cambridge lab.

They have, however, answered the government's request for universities to help with the testing.

We've come up with a method that we've adapted so we can extract on the samples more quickly so we can improve that process on.

Therefore, we can add a little bit more capacity by doing things with a little bit more of a quicker turnaround time.

And it is clear that the government's attitude now is that every little bit helps because although it's hard to believe, it is only 30 days since the first person in the UK died from covered 19 what earlier I spoke with the government's newly appointed testing's our professor, John Newton.

I began by asking him if the government stated target of 100,000 tests to be carried out a day is a realistic one.

It's massive industrial scale rollout of these three big mega labs in Milton Keen's Manchester and Glasgow, and they're already delivering tests.

Many thousands of test today, and we're looking forward to seeing that number go up.

See, there be not so different targets set.

Well, the sexual states target that he announced in the last couple of days is it's a stretching target, and it's based on the requirement for the swab tests.

So we need to get a swab test out so that we can get the most effective response to the to the pandemic.

The requirement for very large numbers of antibody tests.

I mean, we're talking about millions of tests that comes slightly later, so we have got a little bit of time to get the best antibody test possible, and then those will be available in their 1,000,000.

I just want to press you on the link between the scale of deaths and the lack of testing bet to other countries.

As we look at the UK, we've got 43 deaths per 1,000,000 of population from this South Korea, just three Germany, just 12.

Are you not concerned that our the lack of speed and urgency on testing has cost lives?

I don't think you could make that a duty.

The situation is clearly very different in South Korea.

From it is here in the UK sadly, on dhe, there must be a number of reasons for that.

The availability of testing is an important component.

And we used it extensively in the early days when the public health approach was very successful in containing and delaying the onset of the pandemic in the UK And that certainly helped hugely in preparing, allowing, you know, just to prepare for the rise in cases.

Just talking about the antibody tests that you spoke of the test to see if people have had the disease and is therefore immune.

The UK government says it's bought 3.5 1,000,000 antibody tests who from well the UK government has taken options on the wide on a number of tests.

Understand its many more than 10 million tests the options on these tests.

But that's subject Thio evaluation them to see if they are good enough to be used in large numbers.

We're not currently in possession of those tests and ready to roll them out.

We have the option to use them if we want to use them.

The arrangement is that those tests are potentially available.

If the testing had showed that they were the right test on the tests that were performed well enough for us to want to use them at night scale, then they would have been available.

But in fact, the testing unfortunately showed that they didn't perform well enough on, and we are working now to try and develop a test, working with manufacturers to improve that improve the test performance so no other 10 million are currently working.

None of the none of the tests that have been tested so far performed.

They all work to some extent, but they don't perform in the UK setting as well as we would like them to Professor John Newton.

What I'm now joined by our health and social care correspondent Victoria McDonald.

Victoria brings up to date Well, I feel like I should start by apologizing because it is technically my job to work our way through these government messages and so on.

But they keep throwing out these random numbers.

We heard that they were going to be 3.5 million antibody tests, as you said just then, and we heard his response was 10 million.

Then, just a hour later, in the Downing Street press conference, Matt Hancock, the health secretary, said, 17.5 million antibody test and let's get clear about these antibody tests.

Currently, we haven't found that they work.

The other thing about them is the trialing off them, I was told today Takes can take up to six months because you need to keep testing the patient all the way through.

For about six months to make sure that they have developed those antibodies.

There was some good news out of the Downing Street press conference.

There are face masks that critical issue.

There is no evidence that it helps with the spread, and we know the W H O.

The World Health Organization is also looking at this, but for the moment, they're not recommending them.

The other thing is, there are some amazing national clinical trials going on.
