Today's press conference was held by Health Secretary Matt Hancock, who was joined by David Pearson, the new chair of the government's coronavirus social care taskforce.Despite some speculation over the weekend that the R-number is above one in some regions, the government's official figures estimate it is below one in every region.
The government will be drawing up a new plan for social care as lockdown eases. The new taskforce will connect government, local authorities and care providers and focus on infection prevention All old-age care home residents and staff have been tested - and this is now being rolled out to 6,000 other adult care homes
Mr Hancock says it is safe for families to put their relatives into care homes. He said the proportion of care home deaths in the UK is lower than in other countries He also denied that, when thinking about lifting lockdown measures, there is a trade off between deaths and the economy. He said a second spike in cases would be very damaging to the economy
BBCHughPym He’s lying
bbc5live BBCHughPym If we don't see a rise in the R number after the hot wk end and then the protests in a couple of wks, I think some serious questions need asking. Because I think some porkies have been told
BBCHughPym SCUMBAGS on the they almost let off fireworks (RIGHTLY SO) when Italy & then Spain dipped below 100 daily deaths (on Monday’s) today they’re resigned to it causing a drop in their viewing figures & see it as not good news!COVID__19 deaths build media careers! horrific
BBCHughPym I guarantee Pym’s question was sh1t.
BBCHughPym Numbers will go up tomorrow.
WHY as MSM reporting on a suffering economy do you NEVER Highlight revenue lost to tax dodgers (TaxJusticeNetwork 122bn 2014)many European countries+Scotland+Wales are banning corona virus relief to tax avoiders Yet the UK government has refused. Global scale the figure is 500bn
BBCHughPym The majority of the 40 million people who died of the SpanishFlu died in rhe second wave of the virus After the campaign coughsandsneezesspreaddiseases Was eased

BASED ON HANCOCK'S PAST RECORD OF LYING AND MISINFORMING THE BRITISH PUBLIC FROM THE PODIUM AT No10, YOU MAY BE CERTAIN THAT THE 'R' Nos HE QUOTED WERE DERIVED FROM CUMMINGS' ECONOMY PROPOGANDA PLAN AND BEAR NO RELATIONSHIP TO 'THE SCIENCE'
Yesterday a Metropolitan Police Officer who was riding a horse was attacked by some protesters but no news footage was shown
Using the economy suffering as a reason for anything doesn't hold true from a party that's about to throw the economy over a cliff with a no deal brexit. Raping Britain so a few rich men can be richer, when will this government be held to account Keir_Starmer ? BrexitExtension
BBCPolitics I am bored of having to ask this but where is the prime minister?!
MattHancock has a different definition of trade-off to me it seems... The trade-off that I understand is between the continuing suppression of the UK infection-level and the release of the economy and social life. That's a pretty direct trade-off in my understanding....
BBCHughPym We all know that the reason he has said that is because his boss Charlatan_Liar_Johnson wil shortly be announcing some changes that will play Russian roulette with all our lives and he needs cloud cover.
Scientists?... hello? Stay on message Hide the science Save face
mrjamesob is MattHancock the PM now? We never see johnson these days.
BBCHughPym Apart from the places it isn’t.
BBCHughPym Which those idiots at the weekend wrecked!
Yes, let people die. As long the money comes pouring in, awesome.
bbc5live No scientist again today at the briefing. Have we gone from following the science to sacking the scientists?
BBCPolitics Anyone now listening to fall guy MattHancock?
proportion of deaths in care homes much higher than the 29% than the government is pretending it is,more like 40-50%.
If you had controlled the virus you would have limited economic damage too. Prehaps you should take that on the chin...
BBCHughPym How long do we have to wait for clarification about the about tests supplied yer still count as “ all tests undertaken “ and what about the results still a long way from 24 pronouncements?
Matt Hancock is beginning to sound worse than Donald Trump.
BBCPolitics moron
BBCHughPym It's not 'in retreat', we're not playing Warhammer here. Stop the military jargon, keep it statistical and factual. Stop making these briefings personal justification sessions to mask your own ineptitude.
BBCHughPym This is a lie though, R was above 1 the other day, NW & SW. Unfortunately, based on what I've heard from them since the start of this, they have been untruthful & told lies. Their love of Cummings, who even lied live from Rose Garden, has done huge damage to UK & cost lives.
BBCHughPym 🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱 has it ended yet...
You don’t actually analyses anything that these clowns say do you? You just give them an uncritical platform to spout their pish. The BBC is useless. Stop paying the TV tax.
Where is Boris Johnson? Why is he not working? He should be at the DailyBriefing! Is he on his 3hr nap and playing tennis when the country needs him to work? Stop Hiding Boris! WhereIsBoris
Say what you like about Matt Hancock but at least he shows up. Where is the PM
BBCHughPym NW R is above 1 but okay
BBCHughPym 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
BBCHughPym Not according to the R data, when our weak & ineffective lockdown started London was the only hot spot. R is now up across the country. A 5 year old could point that out. Spreading it about isn't a progress in terms of infectious disease control...
BBCHughPym He seems very very pleased with himself for someone responsible for more than 60,000 unnecessary deaths. It is an incredible skill to be that smug when you are absolutely fucking useless. I guess this is a major advantage of a total lack of empathy and self-awareness.
BBCHughPym Why this stupidly militaristic language? Did Hancock send the cavalry out to flank the virus? flanker
BBCHughPym Not sure that's the case in the north west or south west the R is above 1
BBCHughPym How thick as shit is the bloke who asked why is it affecting black/Asian people more like its the government's fault, what a twat 🤷♀️🤦♀️
BBCHughPym Self funders in care homes being fleeced by the government as usual,and they just confirmed it.
BBCPolitics BBCHughPym He’s like the cringeworthy “DJ” at a sodden wedding - playing to one last drunken couple on the dance floor,while everyone has gone onto the after party
