Calls for help the getting on onset. The senate side of it and we take a look at how the pandemic is fueling and asian racism in the United States. And im here to stay with your sports european football governing body wafer has taken the decision to suspend all Champions League and Europa League matches until further notice. So then the u. K. Is rapidly becoming one of the worst affected in europe by coronavirus there have been more than 500 deaths in 24 hours for the 1st time and this spike comes as a 4000 bed hospital is g 2 open in east london to treat cope with 1000 patients the temporary hospital was set up in 2 weeks the government is under growing pressure to increase testing especially for its National HealthService Staff nearly 30000 people are infected with the virus lets go straight away to across one challenges life for us in london is outside the Convention Center thats being turned into a hospital right there rory 1st of all the numbers now reaching alarming proportions in the u. K. Yeah over the last couple of days there has been a very steep curve upwards in the daily deaths also. The latest figures from the n. H. S. Are that 563 people died inside britains hospitals and thats important because there will be a number of people who have died outside of britains hospitals in care homes or or their own homes etc perhaps by 20 percent more those figures will creep in over the next week or so but going back to yesterday the figure was 381 the day before that was 180 you can see how fast the death toll is increasing in the u. K. And the moments the the advice or the warnings that the government is giving out is that were nowhere near the the peak of this yet so weve still got another couple of weeks if you look at the figures if you look at the stats that are being published the u. K. Is plotting pretty much the same trajectory that italy. Was doing about 2 weeks ago or so so the u. K. Is seemingly on course for the same kind of effect. Coronaviruses had on the country is italy and thats why this is needed because this facility here though with its 4000 beds eventually will be coping with the the onslaught the covert 19 is having on the established hospitals of the United Kingdom so this one here in london is the 1st but there are going to be others theres one and being constructed in manchester another one in birmingham and perhaps more elsewhere in the country too to try and mitigate the effects that the coronavirus is having on a very overstretched National Health service right and as he is right rory and people will point no doubt at the w. H. O. Advised to test as much as you can the u. K. Seems to be well behind the curve on that. Yet it has been for some time this is something that the government is playing catch up on its not just testing its also the availability of ventilators and personal protective gear for Health Workers on the front line all of these things are very hot issues at the moment but drilling down into the into the testing issue. Yes the w. H. O. Is saying test test test but when you look at the number of tests actually being conducted in the u. K. At the moment maybe 8000 a day compare that to germany which is conducting many times that number of tests so why is the u. K. Lagging so far behind while the government says we have not had access and this is a global problem they say to the right chemicals for testing we havent had access to the right amount of. Capacity and we dont have the right testing kits that is an argument that carries some truth certainly but youve had Chemical Companies over the last day or so and academic institutions saying hold on a 2nd weve been offering you our help for some time now and we havent had that offer taken up so it does seem like there is a problem here with the u. K. Trying to do what it says it is doing and ramping up testing at the moment the testing is being done. In hospitals and now in mobile Testing Centers elsewhere in the country predominantly the testing has been done on patients but what theyre trying to do is give the frontline medical staff the testing that they have wrong we are asking for all right thats a picture in the u. K. Where there have been more than 500 deaths in 24 hours for the 1st time rory thanks very much andy. Well while the focus is on treating thousands of sick people millions more in the United Kingdom are adapting to a different way of life my colleagues the whole raman spoke to a chest a couple steven and Nicholas Downey about how the pandemic is affecting their family.

Its really hard arent her grandparents. And now we see them at least twice. A week and its hard for her to and. Were not going. To explain. On to spain now where doctors have been advised against admitting coronavirus patients aged over 80 into intensive care elite document published by spanish media says Health Workers in catalonia have been told to prioritize younger patients however the Regional Government says it did not issue such a directive spain has announced its worst single day death toll so far with 864 fatalities in the past when for us it is the 5th day in a row its recorded more than 800 deaths and takes the total toll above 9000 lets join marta who joins me live now from madrid 1st of all marty before we get into the numbers this documents can catalonia prioritising younger patients whats been the reaction to. Well who woke up this morning with these documents from cataloguing Us Health Care system that was leaked to the media where the indicator the practical to follow in case that captured on Health Care System collapses the acts to limit the efforts in patients over 80 or the old to the ones that have the worst possibilities to survive all of the ones that can benefit in terms of saviors that Health Care Authorities have theyre not any any any. Legitimacy to these document and saying that they havent given any any got lines in this in this line and motto that here in the newsroom we get all sorts of statistics coming in to us all the time is one thats really caught the eye its one in 4 people in spain killed by code 19 lived in a nursing home a theyre all elderly what about. Yes well in spain one in 4 of course not i it was debt come from Nursing Homes from the elderly and these are percent at 26 percent of the death toll in spain madrid is their region with the biggest number is nearly 50 percent and theyre saying that these speakers could even be in be higher because there have been very many many people would have been tested or are seen to might we not in terms of another virus it was last last we were talking about the spanish army green lighted by the Health Ministry being deployed nature nationwide to 2 to take over tasks such as this in fact in care homes Nursing Homes and there were there were the ones that raised the voice of alarm when they were finally found in dead body in this care homes of all these elderly people dead in their beds and completely alone abandoned the staff the staff and the nurses there have run away so that this problem is every huge problem right now and theyre asking why is this taking place or when the contagion themselves theyre talking about the relatives visiting them this doesnt occur in concert Nursing Homes not being medicalized so passionately Regional Governments being being blamed because of the situation of these crops so theres a theres a long story behind right and as i said at the beginning its a 5th in a row spain has recorded more than 800 deaths taking the total toll above 9000 whats the government saying about this now. Well the government decided these high numbers sunday and all the passing the 100000 people infected and now 1000 deaths and the surprising 800 that in 5 days and being today the worst mark of the last 5 days there are little be a. Hoax but they have a little bit of hope because so the number of infections has decreased and these days might be because of the effect of all these measures that the government imposed last week of tougher measures in this love down that were were happy we have hearing in spain about closing more of canceling the search nonessential works or economic it cannot make say. Or thats the picture from spain or motto rather for time being thanks a lot the u. S. President is warning americans to prepare for what hes calling the hard days that lie ahead more than 4000 people in the u. S. Have died from Coronavirus Health experts say it could kill almost a quarter of a 1000000 people emergency supplies are being sent to new york states where more than 1700 people have died temporary hospital facilities have been set up to try and ease the burden on the local Health Care System on tuesday we saw the highest Daily National death toll with 865 fatalities and at least 100 sailors on board a u.

And pains in those types of things sore throats but nothing that required hospitalization so they are in quarantine now on guam u. S. Defense secretary mark s. Best says now is not the time to evacuate the ship i dont think were at that point nor are we are moving a lot of supplies and assistance medical assistance out to the carrier in guam were providing additional medical medical personnel as they need it and im pleased to report that none of them are seriously ill. The u. S. Navy says it will take sail is off the Aircraft Carrier on a rotating basis its a plan that seems to fall short of the Decisive Action called for by the ships captain victoria gates and be out there. Well its an hour from tons whos monitoring developments from washington d. C. And says efforts to move the crew are now making progress getting information. No matter who is saying now the intention is to remove as many of these scientists off that ship as quickly as possible in the next few days if they have not tested positive for current virus those affected. How it is so you housed the site of this in force. Take quarantining invasion to tell rooms and who are going to recent history and travelers will curtail the lots of hotel rooms so they will be put in hotel rooms as many as to her room and only military act guards on each floor to make sure there is never social interaction. Would be conformed to it but apparently it has for Many Services possible in the next few days start moving into tell rooms on gold in the in the next few days according to to the governor and. Meanwhile the u. S. Stock markets continue to report losses as concerns grow over the Economic Impact of the pandemic its big not to get this on the whos in new york with more gave the wall street has been bouncing around all over the place these days and right now its down. It is down again theres virus fears are causing the market to again go up and down as you can imagine what they just finished the worst the dow finished the worst quarter drop in history and its now down again on this wednesday maybe its no surprise a lot of this comes after Donald Trumps press conference on tuesday where he gave a very gloomy outlook saying as weve been reporting that the next 2 weeks are going to be very difficult meanwhile you essentially have the entire u. S. Economy pretty much frozen at this point theres really 2 problems theres problems with big business in industries such as the Airline Industry which now wall street is starting to sense this is going to take at least a year for the Airline Industry to bounce back after all this is over and we dont even know when this all be over at this point because of peoples fears of flying again see a big business Big Industries such as that that are going to take a long time by most wall street analysts predictions and then you have Small Business throughout the United States thats just been decimated so far by this the nearly 2 trillion dollars stimulus that was approved by washington last week certainly gave a boost to the markets but its not lasting as were seeing now and basically you basically have the wall street wanting 3 things theyre wanting to see if theres going to be an announcement of a vaccine no indication thats happening there wanting to see the numbers in the u. S. Come down the numbers coronavirus patients come down its the opposite its going up with no end in sight of that and theyre wanting to see some sort of opening up of the economy again no sign of that either all out throughout the United States as these stay at home orders are being extended mostly through april in many cities meanwhile here in new york city the Stock Exchange you see behind me still no traders on the floor because of coronavirus worries 1st time in over 200 years that theyve closed. Stock market Trading Floor trading continues to happen exclusively electronically although bottom line here the markets do not like uncertainty and what do we have we have uncertainty thats all we have no one including the markets know when this is going to end no end in sight absolutely the bumpy ride. Gave thanks will. In the United States are reporting a shopping increase in the number of racist incidents in hate crimes talk to people of asian descent some Community Leaders accuse President Donald Trump of fighting the flames of prejudice and lets head now for reynolds who reports from los angeles. Racism in the time of pandemic a young woman wearing a mask is that attacked in the subway station senate side i mean an elderly woman is chased by a bully trying to squirt and sanitizer on her. Harassment and assaults against Asian Americans are up sharply. So its the outbreak of covert 90 we have seen an incredibly disturbing skyrocketing increase in the number of hate crimes racist attacks acts of discrimination against change americans cant just sense he was crossing a street in Madison Wisconsin when a woman began screaming at her made it i cant hack it and she called us like dirty cheney. She said a bacteria asking time to me and her out of other people there who were watching the situation and nobody did anything professor russell june helped set up a database tracking hate incidents maybe 75 percent are name calling harassments where people are just yelled at her and saying you know get out of here you have the crime virus to 15 percent actual physical assault President Trump as repeatedly identified coded 19 as chinese i would like to begin by announcing some important developments in a war against the chinese virus Asian AmericanCommunity Leaders say trump is whipping up hate and you can see it and are reporting senator biden he makes a statement about the chinese fire us i mean only after theres an uptick anger and discrimination against americans. Racist attacks and pestilence are linked in history when the black death ravaged europe in the 14th century mobs killed thousands of jews accused of spreading plague some of trumps fellow republicans like this texas senator blame the virus on chinese customs and china is to blame because of the culture of where people eat bats and snakes and dogs and things like that so many of these remarks are based in misunderstanding. The signs of east enders. And racism. And a lack of tolerance coronavirus is not the only contagion stalking us the virus of hate is running rampant to robert oulds Al Jazeera Los Angeles to Russia Vladimir Putin is now working remotely after the doctor who showed him around moscows main coronavirus hospital tested positive for cave at 19 and then is separate sankoh host of the tour we could get credit and Spokesman Says putin has regularly been tested for the virus and that there is no reason to be concerned about his Health Russia confirm nearly 500 new cases of the virus on wednesday and that brings the total number of infections to nearly 3000 and lets take this on we can speak to maria lipman whos a senior associate to the institute for European Russian and eurasian studies at George Washington university and joins us live on skype from moscow maria welcome to the program and we just saw some pictures that president putin and the doctor in question not wearing protective gear as he was taken on a. Receive much criticism. No i wouldnt say so of course the fact was reported that they had docked there with hospital that put in this it did now has the virus and the doctor himself wrote it his face book that he feels well but he isolated himself in his office we have a form from which its pressman that the president is fine in good health and i dont think people are focused on this piece of news people have so many things to worry about at this point not so much about the fear of getting infected but the economic consequence is. The economy being in trade for all right now in russia the price of oil having dropped to an all time low the ruble devalued against the dollar in euro people are worried about their immediate future their their jobs and their salaries not about the president s health i think they take the pressmans word for it that tim is fine yeah hes been taking his meetings virtually Via Video Conference this look done was introduced in rush hour on monday so i guess its too early to say what the reaction to the package of bills is be but its certainly as you say is going to have an Immediate Impact on the economy. It is already having an impact on the economy and of course elsewhere it has an effect on Small Businesses to begin with them of of course big business as well. People are only now getting used to or getting in an idea of what a long down is. Right now there is a lot of talk in moscow about this Surveillance System there is criticism on facebook in the Intense Exchange going on there that this is something of a digitalized concentration camp. A word that that emerged on facebook. Right now i dont think people have felt deprivations too much it is indeed too early to say but the main concern as i see it is is about the economic consequences and what about the number of cases with as i said earlier we have 500 new cases of the virus nearly 500 on wednesday which brings the total number of infections to nearly 3000 in those official numbers a smaller than those in European Countries what do you make of these figures and whether or not the valid. Well of course distrust is common in russia or people do not trust their fishel information however at this point in time there is no sense that the government is concealing the truth and the actual state of affairs is much worse people are using social networks that are extremely popular in rush or in people staying at home there have plenty of time to post whatever they want to post if there were indeed many more cases and especially many more deaths right now the number of deaths is on the 30 on shore the social networks will be filled with this information so i guess the number of days number is about 2800 the number of deaths as i see it is under 333 dozen 2526. With the situation will get much worse but of course at this point in time it is better than in. European countries especially the large European Countries will see how the epidemic evolves here what can be see it is that the distribution or those infected is very uneven moscow has a bulk of it moscow has almost 200 out of those 20 almost 2000 im sorry out of those 2800 in the wrist some regions of russia or have it both just 235 on the 10 cases the. Quality of health care is there and even 2 so while moscow is better equipped if the virus if the epidemic hits other regions provincial regions of me it made get much worse. Thank you my pleasure. To iran which is reported another 138. 00 coronavirus deaths make it the 6th country to surpass 3000. 00 deaths nationwide iran has banned all into city travel until at least april the 8 authorities closed parts on wednesday to prevent people from gathering to mark nature day the traditional festival in which families picnic tables well more cases of corona virus have emerged in india among people who have attended a muslim religious gathering around 3300 people from across india and other countries at the meeting in new delhi 134 of tested positive 7 of them have died or thirtys have sealed off centers belonging to the.

Early testing is thought to be one of the main reasons why germanys fatality rate remains low around one percent of confirmed cases in the country have resulted in deaths compare that to italy where the rate is a little over 11 percent experts say german scientists started to develop a test for the virus late last year as soon as it took hold in china it should be at the fast and widespread testing as well as more intensive care units to the country success. Swedens response to the virus has divided opinion with people in urban communities feeling theyve been placed in the foreign line some schools remain open and large gatherings were still allowed as recently as last week or riggs as this. Just. Weeks after the 1st coronavirus case was confirmed in sweden life appears very much as normal in the cities and towns. People are still allowed to gather in groups of up to 50 while isolation is a question of free will the socalled swedish model getting support at least on the streets. But i think thered have to write positions like having your schools open and so on as long as you wash your hands and keep a distance it feels like if youre not in the risks on a new should be out its difficult to say so far so good. Primary schools remain open after the Health Agency said it doesnt believe children are strong transmitters of covert 19 testing of which has been minimal with measures to increase it only announced on choose day beginning with hospital staff a letter criticizing the hands off approach was signed by 2000 people in swedens medical community but plenty supported as well. In most countries politicians take the decisions and they want to enforce strict law. And show strength in sweden the leading politicians including the Prime Minister told that we should trust the experts the opposite strategy to have a complete lockdown its not sustainable and the worst thing is that the epidemic might heat back again and learn from history is that we should do everything we can to avoid the 2nd and the 3rd way here in the ring could be area of stockholm many believe they are in the firing line of the 1st wave after a number of somali elders were among the 1st to die from coronavirus.

Aljazeera stock im the police in kenya have ordered an investigation into the death of a 13 year old boy whose neighbors say he was shot dead when police opened fire to enforce a curfew in the capital on monday evening its not the only example of police using Excessive Force in response to the outbreak as malcolm webb reports now from nairobi. Yaseen moir was just 13 years old. His family say he was shot dead by police on monday evening. They were in forcing a curfew here in kenyas capital nairobi. The government and his uncle told us he was at home on his balcony with the children when a bullet hit him in the stomach the. People even he was abducted by that time to be what i did to my dignity the polls. You know even exactly you should double. The governments brought in restrictions to try and slow the spread of covert 19 the curfew killed yaseen before the virus yaseen has been laid to rest his family say they want justice and theyre not the enemy ones who arent happy with kenyas curfew. In the port city of Mombasa Police used tear gas to break up crowds before the curfew began Rights Groups police are making things worse we believe that the curfew is necessary in order to flatten the code but we dont necessarily think that we do not believe that people at the same time actually helps fight against corbett 19 to be really frank weve seen more deaths at the moment from violent policing than weve seen. In the western city of Kisumu Police also fired tear gas to close the markets in forcing another one of the new restrictions the people depend on markets for income and food restrictions are making life harder and as the virus spreads people expecting a greater lockdown in the weeks ahead the president has made a rare apology for Police Brutality police say some of its officers are being held to account and the police chief has ordered an investigation into yaseen his death his family say they will welcome justice but it wont bring him back malcolm webb aljazeera nairobi kenya. To china and for the 1st time the countries added covert 1000 patients who show no symptoms to its daily count on 130 such cases have been recorded in the past 24 hours 1500 others have been put in quarantine World Health Organization guidelines say symptomatic patients should always be included in the daily tally as they are in many other countries katrina you is in beijing and she says this growing public concern over socalled silent carriers of the virus. Beijing this week is very much on the defensive about its coronavirus datta because recently a local transmission seemed to have slowed to a trickle we were seeing 0 cases all single digit cases reported daily over the past week and the government all but declared victory but the public felt very differently they have been concerned for some time about these asymptomatic cases that is people with covered 1000 who do not present symptoms now china has never added these to its official tally against World Health Organization guidelines saying well authorities maintained that they didnt have any solid evidence that these cases were infectious in the community but over the weekend in a recent days in china there have been some very well publicized cases proving that people have caught korvin 1000 from from asymptomatic carriers and now the government really has changed its tune from today and wednesday theyve are theyre going to start reporting daily new a cement asymptomatic cases so weve put 130. 00 bringing the total of these cases asymptomatic cases to 1367. 00 now in china the government has said that even though or they havent added these to the official tally previously they have been protecting the community saying that even that these cases have been quarantined for the requisite 2 weeks when they have been discovered but people still are quite angry and also its raised a lot of questions here because this isnt the 1st time china has changed the way that its county coroner virus cases actually change the methods a number of times over the past few months and people really are critical and skeptical about these government figures now lebanons cabinet has approved Financial Aid for low income families and those whove lost their jobs but the pandemic is deepening what was already the countrys worst economic crisis in decades so no horror has more now from beirut. Its a desperate time for a growing number of lebanese those willing and able to help are stepping in by providing food to the poor a nationwide stay at home order to contain the coronavirus is putting further hardship on an already struggling population we have so many calls would imagine people starving there were no we were starving only food people asking for medication people asking for milk for their children. I wish that we. Were are so limited with raising money is hard in a country where according to the world bank 45 percent of the population live below the poverty line the pandemic could not have come at a worse time for this nation of 6000000. 00 lebannon is bankrupt opponents of those in power blame them for decades of mismanagement from the us but the 1st really could be it was little bonsa the government of the politicians they ought to be able to help the poor we feel we need to play a role even if the limited capabilities. The government is promising to do all it can but Prime Minister has sandeep has acknowledged the state is struggling to deal with the fallout from the pandemic in the ministry we are hoping.
