The amount of selenium in the soil varies. David Marsh, co-author of “The Driving Force, Food, Evolution and the Future” talks with HOT’S Chandra Masoliver about the importance of selenium for our immune system, where we get selenium from, and how a lack of it might affect our susceptibility to Covid-19.
As the Covid-19 virus continues to spread rapidly, England has moved into a new lockdown, a major incident has been declared in Sussex and local hospitals are in danger of being overwhelmed. Report by Nick Terdre, research and graphics by Russell Hall.
“See the New Year in at home” is the message from the East Sussex director of Public Health now that Eastbourne, Lewes and Wealdon have followed Hastings and Rother into Tier 4 and new cases in the UK have risen to record levels. Nick Terdre reports, research and graphics by Russell Hall.
One of the reasons why Hastings and Rother have been moved into Tier 3 and now Tier 4 is the increasing pressure on local hospitals from Covid infected people. While hospital treatment is essential for the most serious cases, Hastings-based Brian Bostock, a registered nurse of 25 years currently managing end-of-life and complex care provision over four London boroughs, gives an insider’s view of why admission to hospital should be a last resort, whatever the illness.
The rapidly worsening state of the coronavirus in Hastings and Rother has led to these areas being placed in a newly created Tier 4, in a move which will wreck many residents’ Christmas plans. Nick Terdre reports, research and graphics by Russell Hall.
Coronavirus cases in Hastings and Rother have risen sharply in the last fortnight, prompting East Sussex director of Public Health Darrell Gale to issue a new warning and strengthening the likelihood of these areas being placed in Tier 3 when the current allocations are reviewed this week. Report by Nick Terdre, research and graphics by Russell Hall.

A new Covid regime comes into force when the national lockdown ends this week, with Hastings and the rest of East Sussex classified in Tier 2. Despite lockdown limits on activities the past month has seen an increase in the incidence of coronavirus in the town and the county. Nick Terdre reports.
