Blockade of gaza or is forcing people to come up with innovative ways to beat the siege. There is really around and south korea are imposing restrictions on tens of thousands of people as they try to contain the coronavirus south koreas president raised the disease alert level to the highest in an effort to get urgent help to the overstretched Health Systems in the south of the country another increase in cases has now brought the National Total to 602. 00 with 5 People Killed when are you going to do we have vividly witnessed how dangerous it is to have mass meetings in an enclosed indoor space in terms of the spread of a contagious disease i urge everyone to restrain themselves from group of vents are active it is not only in indoor places but also outdoor places which can harm other. And across iran schools and Cultural Centers have been shot the death toll there has risen to 630 people have been infected cases a largely linked to the holy city of qom then theres italy 50000 people there are under lockdown in the north of the country 2 of them have died 80 people have been infected this is now europes worst affected country well go live to the iranian capital and begun just a little while 1st so lets talk to rob mcbride hes a correspondent in daegu in south korea and youre at the center of this outbreak of the disease and i understand that the authorities have effectively linked this to one woman a 63 year old woman and her congregation of course of this particular religious sect which is where this started. Thats right there are 2 clusters down here in the southeast of the country that has the whole of the country concerned because of course a number of people from the southeast have traveled to other parts of south korea infected and have been detected in a fall and sick so it has raised concerns of that we might get other clusters forming but these are the 2 main clusters that all the resources at the moment seem to be directed at trying to deal with here in the city of daegu one Cluster Centers on this church we know that there are cross infections mass infections of churchgoers over a couple of services and that is also linked to a neighboring county here to a hospital where weve had other flurry of cases being reported spreading very quickly through patients and also staff so the focus is here and the by raising this alert level to read it has been at orange which was the 2nd highest level but its now the highest level then its hoped that more medical resources can be directed into dealing with this into staffing hospitals into setting up more centers to test for the coronavirus and so on it really underscores a sense of urgency that the government now has on a weekend when we have seen literally hundreds of new cases being reported president moon j. N. Very gravely saying that the next few days will be critical for south korea we are very much he says a watershed moment also calling on governments and local law thora tes to take up what he says were unprecedented and powerful measures not to be limited by regulations really asking all of the provinces all of the cities to step up to take initiatives to try to control the further spread of this of this coronavirus just quickly on the numbers we have just heard in the last hour the latest figures they produced daily numbers and the total for this sunday was 169. 00 new cases which takes as you. Mentions the total to 602. 00 that is slightly less than yesterdays 22091. 00 set of figures you cannot extrapolate any trends from that but the government certainly of the people here will be hoping that maybe they have this outbreak under control the concern is whether they have implemented these extreme measures to try to stop any further clusters from forming anywhere else in the country and rob it seems that the emphasis coming from the authorities in south korea is upon self isolation certainly way you are regarding that religious group where the infection started and is that effective are people do people understand exactly what the nature of self isolation is and how it should be implemented. South korea has been through a few different outbreaks in fact it was 10 years ago the last time that they raise the disease alert level to the highest 2 to red when they were dealing with an influenza outbreak then which infected hundreds of thousands of people and of course it was only a few years ago that they were dealing with the mers outbreak which was a very deadly outbreak it claimed a number of lives here so the south koreans. Have been through this kind of thing before they have seen the example of china what has happened in hand it cetera and so you do get a sense that people are heeding the warnings of the city of daegu or in the streets a very quiet people have been staying off them and of course this being sunday you would normally expect in these cities throughout south korea to see Church Services certainly in this area in the southeast of the country they have listened to the urgings of the Central Government and in fact most churches this sunday have been closed as people of stayed away all right rob thanks for that the very latest from south korea from rob mcbride now lets talk to a correspondent in the iranian capital and again in iran it seems very much as though there is a source for the outbreak or is at least has a location that is closely associated to the outbreak and that is can tell us about it. Oakum is a religious city has a very important shrine there and receives millions of pilgrims every year mainly from neighboring iraq and lebanon but also as far afield as the United Kingdom now the Health Minister has just been speaking and he said hes actually said that one of the dead in was a businessman who has been travelling between iran and china on and direct flights. Between those 2 countries now flights between the iran and china have now been suspended but it still seems like the source of the outbreak is china before we had someone from the Health Ministry say that it could have been Chinese Workers but they have now said that this one individual that died in com was a businessman whod been traveling between those 2 countries also some from the Health Ministry as official from the Health Ministry has said that its likely that the virus is present in all cities in iran but they said that they will be distributing masks and disinfectant for everybody in the city of the sit around 1200000. 00 people and head into her arm at the metro and bus stations the Health Ministry will be distributing masks everybody free of charge he warned the Health Minister warn people and not to get into a state of panic it said it was under control and people shouldnt worry or spread false rumors or information but that is less people there are less people out on the streets but thats because schools universities Public Events are just concerts and film showings have all been canceled football matches have been canceled for the next 10 days and then right half the in the half the country the schools are closed for at least the rest of the week all right thank you for that i said big reporting live from tehran. Now within the last hour or so weve been learning of there having been an earthquake in the far Eastern Province of turkey than right on the border with iran the epicenter though all of this earthquake apparently is on the other side of the border in iran in a small village a few kilometers away from the Turkish Border but hash bar is our correspondent hes in had time province in Southern Turkey what more can you tell us and about this earthquake that is affecting at least in turkey as well as west in iran well the authorities here are saying that 8 people were killed and 21 injured in the 5. 7 magnitude earthquake have the areas on the border with iran particularly in the province of van and the areas particularly affected are.
