These daily news briefings up a ported lead to keep the nation informed about the battle against a coronavirus but invariably the president strays off message and today he uses forums to rail against what he described as congregational obstruction in the confirmation of government officials and threaten to Adjourn Congress and then push through his nominations during the recess the senate should either fulfill its duty and vote on my nominees or should formally or june so that i can make recess appointments we have a tremendous number of people that have to come into government and now more so than ever before because of the virus and the problem its a threat against congress that no president has made before perhaps its never done before its never been done before nobodys even sure if it has but were going to do it we need these people here we need people for this crisis and we dont want to play anymore political games many in congress would view this as an attack against a fundamental principle on which this country is democracy is based a system of checks and balances that separates the powers of the executive the judiciary and the legislature thats the latest in a series of actions that would appear to amount to an abuse of executive power and follows a suspension of funding to the World Health Organization that congress had already approved and the insistence that the president has the right to order states to follow the guidelines of the executive in deciding when to lift the mitigating measures President Trump says hell speak to governors before announcing new guidelines thursday making clear these involve the easing of restrictions in a number of states pretty youre ready know will be opening up states some states much sooner than others and we think some of the states can actually open up before the deadline of may 1st. And i think that will be a very exciting time indeed the president ended the briefing with these words big day tomorrow on this days evidence its not clear whether this is a promise or threat. Mike hanna al jazeera washington. Trump has also doubled down on his attack on the wild Health Organization he suggests it deliberately misled the wild in the alley stages of the outbreak.

Guidance had failed to control their borders at a very crucial phase quickly unleashing the contagion around the world that was a horrible tragic mistake or perhaps they knew im sure they didnt know the gravity of it but perhaps they knew because if they knew the gravity that would be an even worse offense on the head of the w. H. O. Is calling for unity in the way of trumps criticism when we divided the virus exploits the cracks between us we are committed to serving the world his people and to accountability for the resources with which were interested in due course w. Chose performance in tackling this pundit mic will be reviewed by w 2 as Member States and the independent bodies start our employees to each will try to spot and see an accountability but for now.

Lets now go to katrina youre in beijing katrina what have we been hearing from china well a lot of criticism in turn of trump and his decision to withdraw funding of the w. H. O. Or state media newspaper global times launched a scathing attack on President Trump today saying that his decision was a move against humanity and setting a horrible precedent at a time when the world really should be rallying behind the World Health Organization it also accused trump of using this move to really put aside situation as ammo to try to bolster his chances of being reelected at the end of this year and also that that this really is just a scapegoat for President Trump that hes shifting blame away from himself from his administration to the World Health Organization an attempt to divert attention from his own mismanagement of the outbreak back home and unsurprisingly china has painted it so the Chinese State media has painted chinas response as as that of one of the lead helping to fight this global fight against the pandemic pointing to the fact that china donated 20000000. 00 to the World Health Organization in march and that its also been sending plane loads of aid medical supplies and also teams of medical experts to various countries in recent weeks to help fight this pandemic katrina theres also been i mean plenty of speculation around chinas transparency throughout this outbreak in your on the ground there in beijing are there grounds for the criticism that weve been hearing. Absolutely there is i mean weve been there has been a lot of suspicion over the past few weeks about chinas numbers that they have been that the downward trend may be painting a rosy picture and in fact there actually is and the according to seated press they did an investigation into the beginning of this outbreak in china and they found that there was actually a teleconference that took place between Chinas National Health Commission and the provincial leaders around china on january 14th and during this particular meeting Chinas National Health Commission actually painted a very grim picture of the situation and they said i quote the epidemic is severe and complex the most severe challenge since sars in 2003 and likely to develop into a major public event and that message was supposed to be taken to the upper edge of the communist party to leak a challenge to president xi jinping so that was generally 14 but we do know that president xi jinping did not allow the chinese public to us to the severity of the outbreak until january 20th so thats 6 days between finding out the severity of this outbreak and actually alerting the public now that may not sound like a lot but experts say that 6 days is extremely significant during that time at least 3000 people were infected and also potentially the virus may according to some experts have already reached the u.

A long awaited reunion a School Principal welcomes back his students after a whole month i have really missed my school and im excited to meet my teachers and friends to see them again is a very very big pleasure but much has changed social distancing is still required and parents are no longer allowed to drop off their children inside the school worried about the kids and.

Young students to come in and supply our normal stuff so i have enough stuff apart from schools nurseries are also opening today but only half of them are ready to welcome kids due to the new Health Requirements with extra cleaning less furniture and more outdoor classes.

Back to the school this time greek molly you might you might have dont get too close to each other but the children are only allowed to play in small groups.

Hoping he can do Harvard Research is warning that social distancing measures may need to stay in place to contain the corona virus until 2022 in a study published in the journal science a team of that the demonologist say if a vaccine is not developed social restrictions such as School Closes bans on public gatherings and stay at home all those would be necessary in the next few years the researchers say even if it looks like the virus has been eliminated a resurgence could occur as late as 2024 the World Health Organization also warns the development of an effective vaccine is needed to fully interrupt transmission of the virus while Stephan Kistler is one of the lead authors of that latest harvard report and he says a 2nd wave of infections is a major possibility. The idea is that if we have one time social distancing which i think many of us were prepared for theres a very good chance that a large number of people will remain susceptible to infection and that means that when we reduce social distancing those years those people will become infected because the virus doesnt remember that we were sort of acting against it in the past so well see a resurgence of cases and as that happens Critical Care capacity in hospitals will reach its limit again and well have to enter social distancing again so it seems like naturally were going to enter into this intermittent social distancing period and in order to reach a high enough level of immunity in the population to stop that our model suggests that it could take into 2022 so i think there are 2 scenarios that could play out the less likely one is that theres maybe far more in the unity of the population already than we realize and that would suggest that there are lots of asymptomatic infections that lead to immunity that we simply havent detected and if thats the case then we could do the social distancing we could lead that and then maybe there wouldnt be that big of a resurgence but i think for a couple of reasons that thats fairly unlikely i think its much more likely that that basically the scenarios weve just talked about could play out we do one time social distancing and. The resurgent people could occur and i think one of the biggest dangers of doing only one time social distancing is that we could push that peak into the winter when we have seasonal flu circulation and when the underlying sort of characteristics of spread are sort of favorable for corona virus like transmission and we could actually end up with an even larger peak potentially depending on the amount of seasonal variation that there is in transition but thats again another unknown. Around the wild more people Wearing Masks and gloves to try to prevent themselves from being infected by the 19 and there are an increasing number of tips and advice showing people how to eat. Heres how you can take off and store a surgical mask for reuse wear that potentially contaminating the inside the city or friends to suggest so holding a plastic container against and then putting the straps over the outside of its. Duct tape gregory poland who heads the Vaccine Research group and as a profession of infectious to see this at the mayo clinic explain to us the best way to use mosques and thats you know i brought with me a standard surgical mask this has a malleable so that you can mold it over the nose it hooks like this but the way you take it off is this way you never touch the outside of the mask you have to assume that that contaminated and you throw it away then with a glove if you have gloves on the reason you cant reuse gloves very well as the only proper way to take a glove up is to slide a finger under this and peel it off so now its inside out and gets disposed done i would say you wear a mask any time that youre going to be around anybody who is not your Family Member and becoming a match that were talking about is a is a homemade map so this is an example of one that my wife is making so it has 2 layers of very tightly woven.

Go delivery your ears like this and again when you get home you take it off put it right in the washing machine or into a plastic bag that youre going to wash later these are very valuable in 2 ways number one it decreases the chance youre going to breathe in the large respiratory droplets that can carry the virus and the 2nd thing is that its a memory so you dont touch your eyes nose or mouth and that turns out to be very important well medical work as in some parts of breasts and starting to run out of personal protective equipment and thats despite the government saying there is enough and those who need it most august and now with a growing number of health care walk as infected or dying many are now improvising to keep themselves safe from cave at 19 china has will from around.
