:01:15. > :01:16.of Norovirus are being 0 sign that winter's on the way. Cases
:01:17. > :01:19.of Norovirus are being reported in our hospitals once more. This time
:01:20. > :01:22.it's the Leicester NHS hospitals where patients on five wards have
:01:23. > :01:24.been diagnosed with the winter vomiting bug. The illness,
:01:25. > :01:27.characterised by sickness and diarrhoea, is a major challenge for
:01:28. > :01:30.the NHS. The main problem is controlling the spread. Our Health
:01:31. > :01:41.Correspondent Rob Sissons has been to two of our hospitals to see
:01:42. > :01:45.what's being done. At Leicester 's NHS hospitals, at
:01:46. > :01:49.least 17 patients and nine members of staff have gone down with
:01:50. > :01:56.norovirus. The good news is people usually feel better after 24 248
:01:57. > :02:02.hours. The bad news is, highly contagious and is a really just a
:02:03. > :02:07.cool nightmare to try and contain. Because we have lots of people in
:02:08. > :02:14.hospitals, patients, staff and visitors, whenever norovirus occurs,
:02:15. > :02:18.it can spend quickly. This is one of the wards where patients have been
:02:19. > :02:21.infected with norovirus. The message to visitors is to stop and check
:02:22. > :02:27.that they have no symptoms before they venture through these doors. We
:02:28. > :02:31.have had visitors who have come in and develop symptoms on the ward.
:02:32. > :02:37.These visitors may well have felt well when I left by the time they
:02:38. > :02:40.arrived, they have been more unwell. The problem they have is they are
:02:41. > :02:46.bringing the virus into the hospital, infecting patients and
:02:47. > :02:59.staff. The official NHS advice, if you think you have norovirus, is to:
:03:00. > :03:10.it's not just people. Kingsmill hospital in Nottinghamshire is
:03:11. > :03:10.easier to clean, half of the 550 beds are in 0

:03:14. > :03:19.patients with norovirus can be isolated. We can close the doors,
:03:20. > :03:26.and there is more space between each bed in the Bay stop modern
:03:27. > :03:33.facilities are one thing but soap and water remains one of the best
:03:34. > :03:38.defences. Hospitals seem to blame visitors but staff and contractors,
:03:39. > :03:41.lots of people can spread it. That's true, and it's difficult to prove
:03:42. > :03:47.conclusively who caused what stop what we do know is there is
:03:48. > :03:50.anecdotal evidence evidence in Leicester of visitors throwing up on
:03:51. > :03:55.the ward, it's thought they had it. But that doesn't let staff off the

:03:58. > :03:59.hook. Can they say that every time they are following to the letter

:04:13. > :04:15.up to a million cases of norovirus, it's very common, and most people
:04:16. > :04:20.can get it again, because you are not resistant to it. Thanks very

:05:45. > :05:49.Farmers in Derbyshire are hoping to stop the spread of TB in cattle with
:05:50. > :05:54.the county's first vaccination programme for badgers. The national
:05:55. > :05:58.farmers union is working with the county's Wildlife Trust to start the
:05:59. > :06:03.vaccinations in the Edale area in the Spring of next year. One farmer
:06:04. > :06:13.who's just had a case of TB in his herd says it could help protect
:06:14. > :06:18.livestock. Mike O'Sullivan reports. Slaughterman arrives at a farm in
:06:19. > :06:23.Edale Derbyshire. This cow is suspected to have TB and is being
:06:24. > :06:30.taken away to an abattoir. A postmortem should confirm things.
:06:31. > :06:34.What I am worried about now is what is going to happen next. We have to
:06:35. > :06:40.have two more clear tests, whether they will show signs of symptoms,
:06:41. > :06:41.we're not sure, have to wait. In Derbyshire, TB in cattle has roughly
:06:42. > :06:53.doubled. Badges get the blame from farmers
:06:54. > :06:56.for the increase. The government is carrying out a cult in the
:06:57. > :07:02.south`west, it's thought to be extended if it is successful. But
:07:03. > :07:07.around Edale, vaccination of badgers may be the way forward. Derbyshire
:07:08. > :07:09.farmers are now working with the Derbyshire wildlife trust to set up
:07:10. > :07:15.the first vaccination programme for badgers against TB next summer.
:07:16. > :07:21.It'll be the first its kind in the county. They have raised nearly
:07:22. > :07:27.50,000 to contribute towards vaccinating badgers. It's very
:07:28. > :07:34.expensive, it is very labour intensive. Edale is in the heart of
:07:35. > :07:40.an area where greater monitoring takes place in the hope that the
:07:41. > :07:41.spread of bovine TB can be halted. For farmer Robert, 0
:07:42. > :07:47.spread of bovine TB can be halted. For farmer Robert, vaccination of
:07:48. > :07:51.badgers offers hope. Anything that will reduce the incidence of TB in
:07:52. > :07:58.badgers will be good, whether it is vaccination or removal. Robert 's
:07:59. > :08:02.cattle cannot be moved off the farm until they get the all clear.
:08:03. > :08:04.It's been a year since a boy from Nottinghamshire received a
:08:05. > :08:09.life`saving bone marrow transplant from his younger brother.
:08:10. > :08:13.10`year`old Archie Andrews from West Bridgford overcame leukaemia when he
:08:14. > :08:23.was three but it returned a few years ago. Rebecca Sheeran reports.
:08:24. > :08:27.Boys will be boys, but these brothers are closer than most. Last
:08:28. > :08:30.year, Archie was diagnosed with leukaemia for the second time when
:08:31. > :08:35.he was just nine. His three`year`old brother Harvey was a bone marrow
:08:36. > :08:45.match and became one of the UK's youngest donors. I helped my brother
:08:46. > :08:53.and didn't hurt me. They took my blood out to Archie. If I didn't
:08:54. > :08:59.have it, I would have been stuck in hospital, not unable to do anything
:09:00. > :09:06.if he didn't give me blood. I'm going to school quite a lot now. We
:09:07. > :09:10.filmed with Archie shortly after he was diagnosed. Since then, the
:09:11. > :09:14.family has raised over ?23,000 for a cancer ward. They have been holding
:09:15. > :09:21.a party to thank everyone who has helped. So many people have helped,
:09:22. > :09:24.whether its fundraising, helping with the other two boys, when you
:09:25. > :09:28.have seen them go through so much pain and be so poorly, I cherish
:09:29. > :09:35.every moment, I don't take anything for granted. He was poorly before
:09:36. > :09:48.but now he is up and about playing God. `` playing football. I am
:09:49. > :09:50.really happy now. And that happiness really shows. Three brothers back to
:09:51. > :09:53.full strength. Professor Ajay Vora is the
:09:54. > :09:56.Consultant who carried out the procedure on the brothers at
:09:57. > :09:59.Sheffield Children's Hospital. Earlier I asked him just how
:10:00. > :10:08.complicated it was, for such a young donor like Harvey. It is very
:10:09. > :10:11.straightforward, he had general anaesthetic and we took about 300
:10:12. > :10:16.mils of what looks like blood from the back of his pelvis, within an
:10:17. > :10:22.hour of the procedure, he was awake and running around. He was home the
:10:23. > :10:26.next day. Extraordinary. Does this mean you might be using younger
:10:27. > :10:33.donors? Because Harvey was very young. He was one of our younger
:10:34. > :10:36.donors, what we have had a donor as young as nine months old. The
:10:37. > :10:46.younger they are, the better they tolerate the procedure. I believe
:10:47. > :10:51.the more usual method an aesthetic? In adults, we would give them an
:10:52. > :10:55.injection that recruit stem cells from the bone marrow into the blood
:10:56. > :10:59.and use a special machine to collect the stem cells from the blood, but
:11:00. > :11:06.the injection we had to give, we don't know the safety of it in
:11:07. > :11:12.children. What would you say to anybody who might be thinking about
:11:13. > :11:16.donating but is worried about it? There is a lot of information they
:11:17. > :11:22.will receive beforehand, and they will find the procedure isn't as
:11:23. > :11:29.difficult and arduous as they would imagine. Thank you very much.

:13:20. > :13:25.Obviously the decision has to be in the hands of the court, we're

:24:08. > :24:15.turned right? It was pitch black and cold and damp. Memories of two
:24:16. > :24:20.former pupils, reliving moments in shelters like this but that their
:24:21. > :24:27.school. Occasionally we had a gas mask practice for about half an
:24:28. > :24:35.hour. Which was horrible, because I could never breathe in mind. I felt

:25:15. > :25:25.really dark in there. Must have been terrifying. It would probably have

:25:30. > :25:30.stretching nearly 60 feet, to teach children of today what they went

:26:02. > :26:09.from from the weekend. Keep them coming. There is not a lot going on
:26:10. > :26:14.with the weather at the moment, fairly quiet and benign, thanks to
:26:15. > :26:20.this area of high pressure, staying put for the next few days. For the

:26:22. > :26:25.next few days, staying mostly dry, we will have that autumnal mix of

:27:26. > :27:27.the mild weather, because we get another blast of northerly winds,
