Yes that was that was what helped our authorities told us yesterday that we were reaching the peak of the curve but todays figure is just reflecting nothing to do with the reality so spain now has more than 56000 koran a virus cases it 1500 more cases in the last 24 hours this means and crease of a 16 percent and more than 4000 deaths yesterday Prime Minister better sanchez approved in the congress this extension of the state of the marriage and see whos the receiving plenty of criticism from other Political Parties and what he said was that the only efficient option again is a virus is social isolation so this next sense of these 15 days of extension of the state of earth of measuring c until april 12th of course is what a huge strain on the Health Service is a real force about how to use the military perhaps in a civilian capacity. Well there was still lacking a were really running out of protective protective. Equipment for our health care and for the army and even for civilians we bought we bought many many equipment to china but when we got here the testing kits we realized that there are not enough good i mean there are not enough sensitive they should be more than 80 percent sensitive these test kits and they are not even 30 percent so steel we dont have real figures we need to test all the people that especially the ones that are working in the front line Like Police Officers the army and health cares Health Care Workers motto for the moment turf thanks very much for joining us well take you across though to madrid now to show you some pictures of the ice rink that marty was just mentioning there that is slowly being converted into a morgue a rather depressing sight for those certainly in spain watching what should be a location for fun to be the resting place for many that have passed away because of the corona virus of course well bring you more from space as the hours progress. Staying in europe the french regions worst hit by coronavirus is struggling to cope and has begun sending some of its sickest patients to other cities and even across the borders the Eastern Region of alsace bordering germany began airlifting patients to other countries on wednesday now its moving others by train to french or to hospitals in other french cities this is the main station here in strauss hall 20 people for them seriously ill are being transferred on specially equipped high speed trains the region has reported more than 500 deaths so far 99 in just the past 24 hours now the number of confirmed cases in france has passed 25000 and more than 1300 people have died french president menem mark was called in the army to help even withdrawing troops from iraq. Natasha butler joins me now from southwest france for. Natasha just tell us more about these medical evacuations because in terms of the high speed trains its an ingenious and resourceful idea. Yes of course these are high speed t. G. V. Trains they usually connect or affronts as major cities so from the outside this train is being used looks like a regular train for travel transport but it has been completely transformed inside each carriage of the train is effectively a mobile hospital with respirators special equipment on board our nurses and doctors and each carriage can carry up to 4 patients there are 20 patients in all that are being evacuated from the alsace region of france the north east of the borders of germany it is the area in france thats really been the worst hit by this corona virus epidemic with a 3rd of the deaths in france actually happening in that region so the hospitals there are completely overwhelmed they are struggling and they have asked the government for help so what the governments come up with is the idea of these mobile trains to transport critically ill patients to hospitals in western france where the coronavirus cases are less at least for the time being and there are beds there to receive some of these patients as i said the northeast of france particularly badly hit on wednesday the french president a man or a toured a military Field Hospital that has been built specially to try and take in more of those critically ill patients. Taking the necessary precautions the french president arrived at a Field Hospital in the alsatian city of moore lose it was built to ease pressure on east and frances Health System thats struggling to cope with the countrys highest number of coronavirus cases a facility usually seen in conflict zones but fremantle macro are not out of place in peacetime he says the fight against the coronavirus is a war. When you engage in war you engage fully you mobilize together i see divisions and fractures in our country doubts people who want to divide the country when we should have only one obsession to unite to fight the virus. It took the french army 4 days to build a network of tens that can receive dozens of patients in intensive care. If its a store because its the 1st time weve built the sort of structure thats been created specifically for covert 19. d is close to the german border its plight is motivated its neighbors to help several hospitals in germany switzerland and luxembourg have offered to take in french coronavirus patients at a time when so many countries in the e. U. Have shut borders it is a display of European Solidarity on wednesday german Emergency Services collected critically ill french patients and flew them to hospital in freiburg. Were proud to be able to help our french colleagues our neighbors our friends and irrespective of our location this is about our duty as humans and our desire to help as europeans. At nih for bells across france rang out to thank the Nations Health workers for macro its imperative that people unite behind him and support his actions in this moment of crisis hes convince them to stay for 2 weeks but hes now expected to ask them to stay indoors for even longer natasha aljazeera western france. Chief is criticize european nations for what she calls a lack of coordination response in the fight against the virus. The commission has created europes 1st stockpile of medical supplies itll serve as a bank of crucial equipment to help its 27 member bloc fight one of the worlds worst breaks lets cross over to lawrence lee hes in london was obviously monitoring that speech in a real wrap across the knuckles for some e. U. States. Yeah its a shes talking about a time a few weeks ago if you cast your mind back say to the 26th of february exactly a month ago spain and italy there were no coronavirus cases at all now. Exactly a month later 700000. 00 deaths in italy a full 10 percent mortality rate of the confirmed cases spain gangs up to the same direction at the start of march when the cases of the pick up that was when European Countries were starting to close the borders and the only people if you remember who were allowed to go across for commuters or or goods but clearly there were countries of on the land during the time who were stockpiling and werent handing over medical equipment to these countries which were starting to see the spike in cases the countries which were donating equipment at that time were countries like china and russia and even puberty sent doctors to italy now obviously symbolically thats really embarrassing for the European Union level but also you just have model her in madrid saying some of the equipment that was being sent in didnt work properly theres a problem with lots of testing kits because they provide too many false negative responses that tell you havent got the virus when actually you have so these are some of the reasons wonderland was saying why these countries like italy and spain got in so much trouble and effectively in this speech she accused italy and spain as friends in the European Union of betraying them by not giving emergency equipment when they really should have been when europe really needed to be there for each other to have many initially looked out for themselves when europe really needed and all for one spirit too many nationally gave only funny response. And when europe really needed to prove that this is not only a few and whether union too many initially refused to share their umbrella but it was not for long before some felt the consequences of their own uncooled the need to take action lauras hard words for some nations to actually hear perhaps but she also touched upon the fact that solutions need to be sought sooner rather than later for the economic problems down the road well yes and there is now a massive conversation going on across the block as to what Financial Measures should be taken to to protect the European Union theyre also very concerned about businesses. In europe which are now so weak financially that they could be snapped by. A countries for a really long way away so thats a consensus but but the main issue to them finance is whether or not they create more bones to try to prop countries up will find some other way of doing it but by and large theyre in the process now of on the left end of this crisis into a virtue and they can get in countries to work much more coherently together both on the medical level and on the financial level too but its going to be very very difficult because all the warnings now that countries economies are going to really start to collapse in the short term for the update lawrence our correspondent in london thank you. Still ahead here on aljazeera an admission from the government here a time in new zealand. Falling victim to the crime virus in sri lanka.

Province but it should stay mostly dry in hong kong you might get an often shower its woman with a high of 27 and a similar soil. Close by in the hong kong 24 degrees than what we have seen is a dip in the temperatures in beijing but by saturday they come back up again 14 degrees celsius not bad as well across the Korean Peninsula but a widespread rain event really throughout much of japan it could lead to some localized flooding into india its a fairly calm picture were still seeing some rain so pushing across into more Northern Areas majia pradesh you will see. In the next couple of days in the talmud is a very high north pole celsius that is a cools 100 degrees fahrenheit friday very heavy rain with some thunderstorms mountain snow into Northern Areas of pakistan tends to die away by saturday and woman new delhi. You know listen a good fight. Is really. When the boneless drop. Many died and many reste to end the epidemic. This is their story through the lens of a local filmmaker asked weve seen people making sacrifice more been offered missions this is what i want to see survivors a witness documentary on aljazeera. Or. Youre watching aljazeera that means the whole romney reminder of our top stories the number of cases in spain has taken another big jump in the past 24 hours figures just really show that 655 people have died and nearly 9000 it tested positive across spain more than 56000 people are now infected a converted ice rink in madrid is now being used as a temporary morgue.

U. Chief has criticised european nations for the lack of a cold war donated response to the pandemic as their own delay and says the commission has now created a stockpile of medical supplies to help other nations fight the virus. A 2 trillion dollar coronavirus rescue package has passed its 1st hurdle after getting the approval of the u. S. Senators the money is for helping frontline medical workers and keeping the worlds biggest economy afloat as mike hanna explains. After days of wrangling the senate votes of the bill the political divide for once bridged as democrats and republicans support the package the senate is going to stand together after gather and pass the stark relief package. Like all compromises this bill is far from perfect but we believe the legislation has improved sufficiently to warrant its quick consideration and passage as the treasury secretary was at the center of negotiations that led to the bulls posturing just how do we make sure that American Workers who needed to keep getting paid this is no fault of their own that businesses have been shut down the president and Vice President want to make sure those hardworking americans got money and this was the most efficient way of doing it the President Trump says hell sign the bill as soon as possible expressing the hope that it will speed up the return to normality and an easing of the shutdown and really claiming that some of his opponents are using the crisis to hama selection chances later this year i think there are certain people that would like it not to open so quickly i think there are certain people who would like it to do financially poorly because they think that would be very good as far as defeating me at the polls the democratic mail for the city at the epicenter of the pandemic says new york needs a thaw greatest slice of funds from the stimulus package blaming the Republican Senate leader for the shortfall so it should have been one of the easiest no brainers in the world for the u. S. Senate to include real money for new york city and new york state in this stimulus bill and yet it didnt happen new york city only gets 1300000000. 00 from this package. That is a drop in the bucket and both mayor and governor are seeking the support of fellow democrats in Congress Greater funds for new york state and city is likely to be just one of the amendments that will be demanded when the ball goes to the house of representatives for a vote and while the senates job is now done another standoff is looming that could further delay the stimulus bill going to the white house for signature mike hanna aljazeera washington about long state of emergency has come into effect in thailand the country has reported 111 new coronavirus cases bringing the total number to 1045 on thursday people over the age of 70 are being urged to stay at home and public gatherings abound. Staying in asia fishermen in st lanka are struggling to sell their characters the government introduces tough measures to halt the spread of the virus 400. 00 tons of fish could be thrown away and theres an elf and theres reports more fish are expected to return to port soon leon fernando is worried the fisherman from chillout his 3 booklets of fish he turned sell because of the kind of knock down there was.

Their worries that it could here in the north in just an hour less fishermen are facing similar problems. Now going to survive nicholas seeing him represents around 26000. 00 fish and families of the mughal in that and i wonder most of our people are in a bad state they usually pawn whatever jewelry they have to buy essential so if this goes on things will get worse the government must provide some immediate relief to all fishermen. But. The government says its doing just that since tuesday the bank catches directly from the fisherman and distributing fish around the country to see if they have allocated more than 3000000. 00 to do that and to develop the infrastructure needed fishing prices have gone down. Because of the. Bite. And get their fish are getting. Family well that.

Reports. Japans famed Cherry Blossom is in full bloom and tokyos residents are making the most of the spring spectacle while they still can. Coming just after japan took the painful decision to postpone the 2020 summer olympics everyone here has been given a reminder of why their government took that step a sharp increase in the number of coroner virus cases in the japanese capital has led tokyos governor to urge everyone to stay indoors this coming weekend. We must 1st take measures to prevent the spread of the corona virus or we cannot move forward that hasnt changed and. So far life in japan has been relatively untroubled by the Global Pandemic with businesses and restaurants remaining open. But gradually a realisation is setting in that life might be about to change. When you are stuck at home its stressful so i wasnt sure if i should be here but i wanted to come. My wife wasnt happy about me visiting tokyo but its outdoors and if i keep my distance from other people i think its ok. The olympics are meant to be the high point of Prime Minister shinzo obvious premiership and their postponement is devastating for the japanese economy Prime Minister has faced criticism at home and abroad for his handling of the coronavirus outbreak japan has conducted only a fraction a pest thing carried out by neighboring china and south korea meaning the country could be facing a much bigger hidden problem however serious disorder break gets obvious hopes of japan becoming a major tourism destination with 40000000 visitors disappear seem to be dashed hes really been focusing on boosting japans Inbound Tourism hes also been very keen on encouraging the Hospitality Business to appeal to the but if we reach our clientele the nation and the olympics were supposed to be an opportunity to showcase for the International Community so without that success i think hes Economic Strategies actually losing direction for now the mood remains largely festive but as this surge in new cases continues japan knows that optimism i disappear as quickly as its blossom.
