Grant Shapps MP (Transport Secretary) and Professor Jonathan Van-Tam (Deputy Chief Medical Officer) question and answer session SOT.
- Shapps A: At no time has NHS been overwhelmed / Had Nightingale hospitals to help with that / Encourage people to continue contacting GP, 111 etc to get support required
- Q: ANGER IN CARE SECTOR ABOUT SLOWNESS OF RESPONSE TO THEIR NEEDS FROM GOVERNMENT. STILL AWAITING INFECTION CONTROL PLAN. WHAT DO YOU SAY TO REASSURE THEM? AND ALSO, PREMIER LEAGUE - HOW LIKELY TO BE SAFE TO RETURN TO COMPETITIVE FOOTBALL BY JUNE 12TH?
- Shapps A: They are actually specialist in infection control in care homes / All know what to do / Testament to that, majority of care homes had no report of Covid / Figures from WHO - Europe as a whole, 50 percent of deaths in care homes / Not so in English care homes, 25 percent overall / Essential provided with provisions / Often privately owned, so should by own PPE, but government provided in the midst of global shortage / Big national effort to assist them / Health Sec saying more on that soon / Won't underestimate work going into care homes to keep them Covid free
- Van-Tam A: Overall approach with easing social distancing has been tentative, measured etc and that's plan in place for elite sport, not just football / Small steps to seeing what can be achieved safely / First of those is return to safe training / Observing social distancing / Plans taking place at depth to be able to do that / Stepwise thing / See how that goes before time to consider moving to return of competitive football matches
