Coronavirus: govt “sorry if people feel there have been failings” as deaths rise – BBC News
The Home Secretary Priti Patel has said the government is “sorry if people feel there have been failings” to provide adequate protective clothing to many health workers. Doctors’ leaders have warned that medical workers’ lives are being put at risk due to a lack of personal protection equipment. It comes as deaths in UK hospitals from coronavirus rose by more than 900 in the last 24 hours. Many more people are thought to be dying in care homes and in the community. Reeta Chakrabarti presents BBC News reports from Science Editor David Shukman, Health Correspondent Laura Foster, Home Affairs Correspondent Tom Symonds and Political Correspondent Ben Wright.

Tens of thousands of organisations have been caught out by a computer virus called WannaCry. The malicious software locks data away and demands a payment of up to $300 (£230) a time before it will restore scrambled files. In the UK, many hospitals fell victim and some health organisations diverted ambulances and cancelled non-essential services as they sought to contain and clean up the infection. Infections in more than 99 nations are being reported by security firms. It appears that the hardest hit are Russia and Spain.

A year ago, artificial intelligence was being sold as something close to science fiction — a technology that could transform society, cure disease, even reshape the global economy.
Today, the tone is changing. The companies leading the revolution are racing to the stock market — chasing billions in investment — while quietly confronting a much harder reality: AI is expensive, unpredictable, and far from profitable.
At the same time, some of the very people building this technology are warning we may be going too fast — even calling for a global pause.
And beyond Silicon Valley, a different story is emerging: growing public anxiety, political backlash, and the rise of what some are calling anti-AI populism.
So is AI entering its most pivotal moment yet — caught between financial pressure, technological risk, and political resistance?
AI Decoded Presenter Christian Fraser is joined by Financial Times AI Editor Madhumita Murgia, Thematic Strategist at Deutsche Bank Research Adrian Cox and Richard Coffin, Host of popular investing podcast ‘ The Plain Bagel’.

According to Russia Today 130,000 plus people have died as a result of this government failed cuts since 2010 and the illegal Genocide of the blind severely disabled as a result of far right failed ideologies. The present death toll regrettably of this pandemic circa 11,000 are mainly due to an incompetant civil service, fail,ed political structures and mainly as a result of government unpreparedness based upon lack of intellectural capacity .
History like the nurenberg trials will didcate who should be tried for genocide in public office. The envelope of radical political change is approaching with ciminal sentances given to corrupt civil servants,politicions and removal of all MPs who sat in the rotten corrupt parliment in the last five years.

100 years back Spanish flu 100 corore people's die around the world 1918 whenever came down with flu that person was dumped in the hospital into cramped room with out fresh air sun light and adequate nutrition and that was the cause of the death this meant that the patient walked of such hospital alive so if we take that ex and campare it with the present context then if anyone is detected wiht Corona virius then that person is cut off from fresh air sun light.Also the food is processed and packed or cooked in a way that the person can fill his stomach but nutrition is almost negligible in such a situation the patient take longer time to recover. Also,if the patient has been suffering from other aliments like kidney failure diabetes heart dieses of hi blood pressure and admini with anti , malaria drug along with antibiotics then it seen the combination of these 2 medicine in the last 40 years has resulted in acutely prolongation of heart meaning the heartbeat dangerously rises sudden cardiac death.This has been seen in the research paper of 27 March of journal of American medical according to which the cause of death is mayocardiol injury here I am talking about1/3 of the patients.This means it is clear that the cause is either Corona virius or the treatment of Corona virius

Sheltered snowflake Matt Hancock's absurd suggestion that staff may be wasting the PPE really shows how stupid he is.
