Takeaway food and drink outlets can only serve customers via a hatch and only shops selling essential items are allowed to offer click and collect.

The president elect also had a blunt warning for americans, things he said would get worse before they get better. Peter bowes, bbc news, los angeles. India starts its vaccine rollout today. Its aiming to inoculate 300 Million People byjuly. 0ur correspondent Rajini Vaidyanathan is at a hospital in delhi. Rajini, that sounds like a very ambitious target. Do people there believe it is achievable . I think they do. Rachel and charlie, let me give you some numbers to put this into context. I am at one of over 3000 Vaccination Centres which have been set up at hospitals and Health Centres across the country. The goal is to vaccinate around 100 people every day so that means that by the end of today alone, if everything goes to plan, then more than 300,000 indians will already have received a coronavirus vaccine. Front of the queue, like back in the uk, healthcare workers, front line staff like Police Officers, then it goes to the over 50s and people with Underlying Health conditions. There are two vaccines which are being rolled out today. One of them is the Oxford Astrazeneca vaccine which has 0xford astrazeneca vaccine which has been produced en masse here in india. The other one is an indian developed vaccine by a company which has raised some concerns because it has raised some concerns because it has been given approval for rollout before it has actually received stage three efficacy trial clearance, which basically has caused some concern to Health Experts here because they say that a vaccines being rolled out when officials dont actually know how effective it will actually be. The government stresses that that vaccine is also safe and that they are administering it under very, very strict supervision. But i think in answer to your original question, this is a country of 1. 3 billion people, it is a huge logistical task against various terrains, mountains, deserts, urban and rural, but india does have some track record on this because it already vaccinates millions of people every year against diseases such as polio. Thank you very much, rajini. An enormous, enormous logistical effort there was not we will catch up on that later. A night time curfew of 6pm comes into force across france from this evening.

The duke of cambridge has told how seeing people die during his time as an air ambulance pilot left him traumatised for weeks on end. Prince william drew on his own experience while speaking to a group of frontline workers during a Video Conference about the importance of accessing counselling and bereavement support. Something that i noticed from my brief spell flying the air ambulance for the team is when you see so much death and so much bereavement, it does impact how you see the world and it is very interesting what you just said then about being able to kind of see things in a different light and realise, like you said, i think you said about everyone around you dying, you thought everyone was going to die because of that is what really worries me about the front line staff at the moment is that there is that, you are so under, you are so pressurised and seeing such high levels of sadness, trauma, death, that it impacts your own life and your own family life. One story to ring to you on a 0ne story to ring to you on a lighter note, really. A dog, called willy, has been rescued after getting stuck in a well.
