:02:13. > :02:15.to try to contain an outbreak of gastroenteritis, which has

:02:29. > :02:42.Jane, you can imagine what it's like for these athletes. They train all

:02:46. > :02:49.Championships, it's absolutely right up there with the Olympics and for
:02:50. > :02:51.them to have to miss it because of something out of their control is
:02:52. > :02:56.obviously devastating. As you said, while those athletes was Issac
:02:57. > :03:00.Makwala, one of the favourites for a medal in both the 200 metres and the
:03:01. > :03:05.400 metres, he was forced, he says, to pull out of a 200 metres when he
:03:06. > :03:14.became sick yesterday and he told me this morning that he is heartbroken.
:03:15. > :03:20.It was supposed to be the start of his bid for world domination. Issac
:03:21. > :03:27.Makwala, he was aiming to double up in the 400 metre final tonight. But
:03:28. > :03:32.yesterday, he vomited before his 200 metre heat, seemingly a victim of
:03:33. > :03:37.the illness sweeping around the Tower hotel. Despite feeling OK,
:03:38. > :03:40.officials pulled out of the race as a precaution. Today he also feels
:03:41. > :03:47.fine but still has not been told if he's allowed to run in tonight 's
:03:48. > :03:53.final. His dream hangs in the balance. It's big. I feel
:03:54. > :03:59.heartbroken yesterday. I was ready for this. I worked hard for this. I
:04:00. > :04:06.was top of my game to come here. I was ready to make it possible. I
:04:07. > :04:15.came here for a medal. If some people force you to withdraw, I
:04:16. > :04:21.don't know, they could hang I'm OK to run but they might say no, I
:04:22. > :04:26.can't run. A bad thing. He's not the only one struck down at the worst
:04:27. > :04:29.possible time. The German team have been particularly affected. Four
:04:30. > :04:33.other athletes and several others in their support staff are taking ill
:04:34. > :04:39.before the weekend and many of athletes have now moved hotels. We
:04:40. > :04:42.understand the outbreak is isolated here, but the tower hotel released a
:04:43. > :04:45.statement concerning the hotel was not the source and went on to say
:04:46. > :04:49.that strict hygiene protocols have been put in place and that all
:04:50. > :04:55.public areas have been thoroughly sanitised. Gastroenteritis causes
:04:56. > :05:00.vomiting and diarrhoea and is usually caused by Mauro virus,
:05:01. > :05:04.believed to be the cause in these cases. It unpleasant, and easily
:05:05. > :05:08.spread, toxic combination for a hotel full of athletes. The
:05:09. > :05:12.important thing is if people have it, stay away from other people, so
:05:13. > :05:19.they're not at risk of passing it on. And to be very scrupulous about
:05:20. > :05:22.washing their hands when been to the toilet and vomited. The London
:05:23. > :05:26.organising committee say they are doing everything they can to get the
:05:27. > :05:29.illness in hand. In any event, when you have 20,000 people minimum
:05:30. > :05:34.coming in from every corner of the world, a possibility someone might
:05:35. > :05:37.come in with a bug. We've taken all the steps we needed to and we had
:05:38. > :05:43.the first indication that a member of the team had some symptoms as
:05:44. > :05:46.early as Friday. We were straight in with medical experts and Public
:05:47. > :05:50.Health England and they've been working with the teams at the hotel
:05:51. > :05:55.to make sure we have the right processes in place. The IAAF, the
:05:56. > :05:59.world governing body for athletics also released a statement saying
:06:00. > :06:03.they are also working with Public Health England to control this
:06:04. > :06:06.outbreak. They wouldn't comment individually on Issac Makwala's
:06:07. > :06:11.case, but we do know that one athlete from Ireland was forced to
:06:12. > :06:14.pull out of the 400 meter hurdles semifinals yesterday after coming
:06:15. > :06:19.down with a bug on Sunday. The British athletics camp say no one in
:06:20. > :06:22.their team has been affected and are saying they are staying in a
:06:23. > :06:24.different hotel but you can imagine the devastation for those athletes
:06:25. > :06:29.who have been affected by this at the worst possible time.

:06:42. > :06:44.NHS England had said the effectiveness of the drug,

:06:52. > :06:58.Our Legal Correspondent Clive Coleman is with me.
:06:59. > :07:08.It is quite a complicated case. Explain more about this. This little
:07:09. > :07:11.boy has a condition called PKU which means he can't metabolise protein.
:07:12. > :07:15.In fact, if he has more than 12 grams of protein a day he could
:07:16. > :07:20.suffer severe brain damage. On top of that, he is severely autistic and
:07:21. > :07:23.does not have speech or language, so managing his diet is incredibly
:07:24. > :07:30.difficult for his parents. His NHS consultant wanted to have a drug but
:07:31. > :07:34.it's a very expensive drug costing ?100 per day. NHS England turned
:07:35. > :07:39.that request down saying that it wasn't clinically effective or
:07:40. > :07:43.hadn't been proved. Today, Mrs Justice Andrew 's look at that
:07:44. > :07:48.position, dismissed the case on two grounds, but she did find that that
:07:49. > :07:53.decision was irrational. She said the clinical efficacy was beyond
:07:54. > :07:57.question. Is what that means there's NHS England will now have to go and
:07:58. > :08:01.look at that position again. It doesn't guarantee he will get this
:08:02. > :08:04.drug, there is very strong judgment behind him, is a good chance of that
:08:05. > :08:07.and NHS England have acknowledged the case failed on two grounds and

:21:29. > :21:32.BEEN HAPPENING? A couple of hours to go before they close. Still queues
:21:33. > :21:36.of people. A big turnout, we think, and so far everything has gone very
:21:37. > :21:39.well. The key thing has been about the system of voting, it's a

:21:56. > :22:01.thing for success in this election is that that system to work and for
:22:02. > :22:06.whoever loses, and this is basically a two horse race between the current

:22:13. > :22:16.is very close its the latter of which of them takes that defeat
:22:17. > :22:18.well. Whoever loses, if they stay back and say, yes let's bring this
:22:19. > :22:23.country together, things will go well. If they don't, that is where
:22:24. > :22:27.the questions live. That is why people here are afraid, because
:22:28. > :22:33.there has been violence in the past and allegations of rigging. We are

:23:32. > :23:39.It does seem that Google fired him pretty quickly? I think it became

:24:15. > :24:16.are reporting cancer later than other ethnic groups,
:24:17. > :24:19.because of a perceived stigma about the disease.
:24:20. > :24:21.That's according to researchers, who say they are worried that

:24:46. > :24:50.strict Indian community where even talking about the disease was
:24:51. > :24:55.something shameful. I didn't tell them, because I just thought if
:24:56. > :25:00.people hear the fact I've got cancer, they're going to think it's
:25:01. > :25:03.a death sentence. Maybe I lead a balanced life, therefore God has
:25:04. > :25:09.punished me, and so hiding it was the obvious choice. This researcher
:25:10. > :25:13.has spent the previous years looking at attitudes towards cancer in the
:25:14. > :25:17.South Asian community. They would hide the shame, in their
:25:18. > :25:22.eyes, of having a cancer diagnosis, because they felt it would influence
:25:23. > :25:26.their children's future. Also about the influence from males and elders
:25:27. > :25:30.in the family and if they didn't think will and should be going for
:25:31. > :25:35.screening, they wouldn't go. The reluctance to go for a sneer, it's
:25:36. > :25:39.like you don't want to be defiled. The husband, it's like you're being
:25:40. > :25:46.unfaithful to them. It's like infidelity. If you research projects
:25:47. > :25:48.Abingdon in this area show South Asian women have reduced survival
:25:49. > :25:51.rate and are more likely to go to the doctors when their tumours are
:25:52. > :25:59.advanced. Because of the ignorance of not
:26:00. > :26:01.presenting early, not going through the screening programme not
:26:02. > :26:09.examining their breasts, they are presenting late and this reminds me
:26:10. > :26:12.of a woman who came to see us. Her breast was smelling so much you
:26:13. > :26:17.couldn't even sit next to her. I don't know how long she was hiding
:26:18. > :26:25.that. She had literally left it that long? What happened to her? And
:26:26. > :26:28.fortunately she died. You see? Because the cancer had spread.
:26:29. > :26:32.Charities and local authorities have been trying to help the South Asian
:26:33. > :26:36.community addressed this issue, but many feel it such a deep rooted
:26:37. > :26:42.cultural stigma that it will not be easy to change attitudes stop here
:26:43. > :26:45.on from the medical profession and I know these things, and yet I still
:26:46. > :26:52.felt I had to hide it from everybody else. That's down to my upbringing.
:26:53. > :27:00.That's down to the baggage, and I consider it baggage, that I carry.

:27:07. > :27:11.We have been talking about the world athletics Championships in London.
:27:12. > :27:15.There is another sporting event going on.

:27:25. > :27:26.across Britain live with some form of intellectual disability -
:27:27. > :27:29.but sporting provision for them faces major funding challenges,
:27:30. > :27:35.as our sports correspondent Joe Wilson reports.
:27:36. > :27:45.In Sheffield this week there is sport everywhere. The National games
:27:46. > :27:47.of the Special Olympics, 20 disciplines, two and a half thousand
:27:48. > :27:51.competitors and what links the lives they love sport. What links them all
:27:52. > :27:58.if they have a learning disability, and that can make life a daily
:27:59. > :28:02.challenge. Getting like around, travelling and stuff like that and
:28:03. > :28:07.everybody being nasty to Lee, bullying me, stuff like that. That
:28:08. > :28:13.happen to you? Yes, it does. Doesn't happen here, doing the sport? Know,
:28:14. > :28:15.everybody is the same. A lot of people with intellectual
:28:16. > :28:20.disabilities, they feel they're being left out from the community
:28:21. > :28:23.and from the exclusion. Where is coming to these games gives them a
:28:24. > :28:28.chance to express themselves and to really show not about what they
:28:29. > :28:34.can't do, but about what they can do and more.
:28:35. > :28:42.To stage all this board takes money and for the first time this national
:28:43. > :28:45.games of the Special Olympics has received direct treasury funding, ?2
:28:46. > :28:49.million from the government. But when the event starts at the
:28:50. > :28:54.weekend, so does that cash. We're hoping that this event will
:28:55. > :28:57.just show what the benefit of supporting Special Olympics by the
:28:58. > :29:02.government is. The Olympic movement was about friendship, was about
:29:03. > :29:09.camaraderie, was about achieving to one's best, so perhaps that has got
:29:10. > :29:14.lost. That's what you get here in Sheffield? Yes, yeah, yeah.
:29:15. > :29:17.Participation is everything. To date competitors are classified so they
:29:18. > :29:22.can be matched against others of the similar standards later this week,
:29:23. > :29:28.but each local club has had to raise some ?400 for each competitor just

:30:18. > :30:21.put the spotlight on them, give them their chance and everybody deserves
:30:22. > :30:25.a chance. That's just what this is about. That spirit defeats the
:30:26. > :30:30.weather in this city but it can't overcome a lack of funds and as this

:31:00. > :31:04.The bus stopped and passengers went to help the woman,
:31:05. > :31:15.Time for a look at the weather...
:31:16. > :31:34.That is the Yorkshire coast. Rain is not the whole story this week that a
:31:35. > :31:37.big part of the story. You can see from the radar picture, what a soggy
:31:38. > :31:41.day so far in Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and in the Midlands. We
:31:42. > :31:44.have started the season heavy showers across parts of East Anglia
:31:45. > :31:49.and the south-east. Also towards the south-west. These were the shower
:31:50. > :31:53.clouds beginning to build in North Devon a little earlier on this
:31:54. > :31:57.morning. As we go through the rest of the day, across England and Wales
:31:58. > :32:00.generally quite cloudy, some outbreaks of rain and heavy
:32:01. > :32:05.downpours in places. The driest of the weather and the brightest of the
:32:06. > :32:10.weather today will be across Scotland and Northern Ireland. A few
:32:11. > :32:14.showers but plenty of sunshine, 18-19d. North-east England on the
:32:15. > :32:23.Midlands, look at the temperatures, just 13 or 14 degrees this
:32:24. > :32:25.afternoon. A bit warmer that East Anglia and the south-east but these
:32:26. > :32:27.heavy downpours could give some poor travelling conditions and perhaps
:32:28. > :32:29.flash flooding and hefty showers continuing in Wales on the
:32:30. > :32:34.south-west, but with some glimpses of blue sky and Sanchon in between.
:32:35. > :32:37.A lot going on through the rush hour and into the night. These clumps of
:32:38. > :32:41.wet weather with some thunder and lightning at times continue to
:32:42. > :32:44.circulate around the Northern Ireland and Scotland largely dry
:32:45. > :32:49.with clear spells and temperatures a little chilly in the north, staying
:32:50. > :32:53.fairly mild further south. Two halves to weather story tomorrow.
:32:54. > :32:57.Low-pressure hanging around towards the east and south-east. More rain
:32:58. > :33:01.to come here but more high-pressure toppling in from the West. That
:33:02. > :33:04.means for Northern Ireland and Scotland, increasingly northern
:33:05. > :33:09.England and West Wales, some better weather prospects tomorrow. Not so
:33:10. > :33:14.further south and east. This band of wet weather is sinking very slowly
:33:15. > :33:18.southwards and eastwards. Some heavy rain moving slowly enough it could
:33:19. > :33:22.cause some big problems, travel disruption, maybe some issues with
:33:23. > :33:26.flooding. On Thursday, the last of that rain still hanging on across
:33:27. > :33:30.the south-east. The area of high pressure builds further across the
:33:31. > :33:33.country, so many places fine and dry on Thursday. However, the end of the
:33:34. > :33:37.week brings this frontal system from the West. It will bring some
:33:38. > :33:42.outbreaks of rain, heavy in the West, lighter and more patchy in the
:33:43. > :33:47.south-east. Quite windy with gales in the far north-west, 16-20d, but
:33:48. > :33:53.the weekend, a little bit of hope because it looks things will turn
:33:54. > :33:57.dry with some sunny spells. Goodness, I hope so! Thank you. That
:33:58. > :33:58.is all from us for now. On
