Good afternoon. Some 25,000 people in the UK are | :00:22. | :00:27. | |
unaware they are infected with HIV. Details have emerged from the | :00:27. | :00:29. | |
Health Protection Agency which says around 600 people are needlessly | :00:29. | :00:35. | |
dying from the condition each year. David Cameron says the message | :00:35. | :00:40. | |
should be spread about education, testing and early diagnosis. | :00:40. | :00:47. | |
Philippa Thomas reports. We have known for decades that the HIV | :00:47. | :00:52. | |
virus can infect and destroy our immune system. Left untreated, it | :00:52. | :00:58. | |
can develop over the years in AIDS or acquired immune deficiency | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
syndrome. The Health Protection Agency says not enough people are | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
being tested for HIV, adding to the spread of the virus. | :01:04. | :01:08. | |
And the Prime Minister has recorded a special video message to mark | :01:08. | :01:13. | |
World AIDS Day. Thanks to effective treatment and | :01:13. | :01:19. | |
the brilliant care of our NHS, an early diagnosis means that the | :01:19. | :01:23. | |
outlook for most people today with HIV in the UK is a good one, but | :01:23. | :01:28. | |
some 25,000 people in the UK do not know that they have had, are not | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
benefiting from the treatment and are increasing the risk of passing | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
the virus on. The HPA's latest report estimates | :01:36. | :01:43. | |
that about 96,000 people in the UK are living with HIV. With more | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
than,000 new diagnosis last year alone, but almost a quarter of | :01:47. | :01:52. | |
people with the virus don't know that they have it. AIDS and HIV | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
campaigners stress that the record numbers of people living with the | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
condition are proof that the treatment works. | :01:59. | :02:06. | |
Somebody who is diagnosed early, they will have maybe 35 to 40 | :02:06. | :02:13. | |
years' life expectancy, a really strong argument to test regularly. | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
With.events being staged worldwide to mark the day, some campaigners | :02:17. | :02:25. | |
want the message to get out earlier, urging age-appropriate awareness | :02:25. | :02:29. | |
lessons at school. Police have charged an actor, who's | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
been in Coronation Street and The Bill, with historic child sex | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
offences. Andrew Lancel, from Gateacre in Liverpool, will appear | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
in court later this month to face five counts of indecent assault | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
against a child. Australia has become the first | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
country in the world to introduce unbranded packaging for cigarettes. | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
From today all logos and colours are being replaced by dark green | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
packaging with graphic pictures and warnings. The Australian Government | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
says it is a decisive blow against the ill effects of smoking, but the | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
tobacco industry says it infringes their legal rights. From Sydney, | :03:01. | :03:11. | |
:03:11. | :03:12. | ||
Duncan Kennedy reports. Any colour as long as it is green. This is the | :03:12. | :03:17. | |
future for the smokers in Australia, plain packaging where one brand is | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
barely distinct wishable from another. The Australian smokers | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
will be deprived of favourite colour coded brands. There are | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
35,000 out let's across Australia with you can buy cigarettes, from | :03:30. | :03:36. | |
now on they will come in this plain, drab, green packaging. Gone are the | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
logos of the tobacco companies. Campaigners say that the plain | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
packaging stubs out remaining glamour. | :03:44. | :03:51. | |
Once you take the colour-coding and the imagery and the gold packaging, | :03:51. | :03:58. | |
and everything standardised you do de-glamourise a product and go as | :03:58. | :04:04. | |
far as de-normaliseing smoking. This is how cigarettes used to be | :04:04. | :04:09. | |
sold. Cigarette packs became the last advertising platform for the | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
tobacco companies. Why they fought hard against plain packaging in the | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
courts. We have said for a long time now | :04:16. | :04:22. | |
that there are serious, unintended consequences to flow on from plain | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
packaging, including the growth in the illegal tobacco market, the | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
reduction of legally tobacco prices, court cases, a whole range of | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
consequences to flow on from this. But as Australia packs away old | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
packets, other countries like Britain and India are gearing up | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
their campaigns to take on the tobacco companies in the battle of | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
the cigarette box. The former England cricketer Andrew | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
Flintoff has won his professional boxing debut. He beat the American | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
Richard Dawson on points, despite being knocked down in the second | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
round. Flintoff's first heavyweight bout came after months of training | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
with his coach, Barry McGuigan, and was filmed for a documentary. Olly | :05:01. | :05:10. | |
:05:11. | :05:14. | ||
Foster was ringside. COMMENTATOR: Flintoff! When Andrew | :05:14. | :05:19. | |
Flintoff walked out into the boxing ring as a cricketer, he put fear | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
into the opposition, but this is a different world. He said he could | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
not have trained harder, four months for four two-minute rounds. | :05:27. | :05:32. | |
With the friends and family ringside, it was obvious he wanted | :05:32. | :05:37. | |
to make every second count against Richard Dawson, a novice from | :05:37. | :05:42. | |
Oklahoma. The American caught him in the second, the Manchester arena | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
held its breath. No training could prepare him for this. Could he take | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
a punch? He could. Andrew Flintoff did not hold back in the third and | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
the fourth rounds. He threw more punches and at the final bell, the | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
home crowd thought they knew who had won and so did he. | :06:00. | :06:06. | |
There are many people who wanted Andrew Flintoff to fail here | :06:06. | :06:11. | |
tonight, but he trained properly, he came here to fight and to prove | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
a few people wrong. He has done just that. | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
I got the full experience it was amazing, the people of Manchester | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
are friends and family it was like an out of body experience it was | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
unbelievable. To think that I could have the opportunity to do that | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
here. I think he did brilliant. He outboxed the American. He did well. | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
The watched the documentary, I thought he would be knocked out in | :06:36. | :06:44. | |
the first one and two, but he lasted throughout and out-boxed him. | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
I thought he did well. That lad was massive. | :06:48. | :06:54. |
