Gunman disguised as a policeman has killed 16 people before he was shot dead. And eyepieces them to go to sport tennis world number one other jock of age says he wont vaccinate himself against coronavirus even if that means hell face a delay in returning to the court. With the daily coronavirus death tolls dropping along with the rates of infections across many countries many european governments are taking tentative steps to lift constraints on daily life germany is reopening some shops and allowing limited School Classes the federal government in berlin has left it up to leaders in each of germanys 16 states how much they want to reopen and when after a month long closure Nursery Schools are now open to norway but its despite polls showing nearly a quarter of parents do still have concerns shutters are also being lifted across poll. And denmark and the Czech Republic infections in europe are nearing a 1000000 and close 2100000 people have died paul brennan joins us live from london so paul several countries easing restrictions but not all at the same rate and in the same way. You know peter the picture across europe is extremely mixed with some of the countries that youve mentioned that which have begun to contemplate easing their restrictions are those countries that were worst impacted at the start of the outbreak and so theyve seen their curve if you like its starting to come down on the other side austria for example which has decided to allow small shops to open and its still maintaining social distancing for example insisting that people visiting supermarkets need to wear face masks germany we know as you say bookshops bicycle shops and other small store stores will be allowed to open and one of the scandinavian countries that mark i think it was that started to open schools but in a voluntary way the parents are required to bring their children to school if they feel that the risk is worthwhile they want to then they can spain as well the Prime MinisterPetra Sanchez saying the children really need to get outdoors theyve been locked down since the middle of last month in a very strict way and there is the psychological impact of that kind of confinement that is at the height of the mind of many politicians just how long can you keep people locked up in this way without a reaction from the people from the population here in the u. K. Let me just finish with there is no prospect at this point in time the fear from the downing street briefing expressed by the Prime Minister this morning was that there could be a 2nd wave which could have caused even more damage to both health and the economy where the infections could rise exponentially and its a real concern that were not at the stage here where restrictions easing of restrictions is possible and at the center of the debate where you pull all of. The protective equipment for those n. H. S. Key workers. Yes that the struggle against the virus the struggle to treat those with the virus is very much focusing on the people who are on the frontline that is the n. H. S. Workers and there was a very critical sunday times article over the way. Cand which spoke about the apparent lack of preparedness of the government and what we see is warning after warning from interested parties in this Chris Thompson whos the chief executive of n. H. S. Providers thats a representative body for the u. K. Hasa for the english hospitals he warned on friday that these long sleeve fluid repellent gowns that are necessary to be worn in intensive care units could run at which stocks could be nonexistent by within 48 hours not simply today and the government was embarrassed at the weekend when on saturday they promised that a shipment was arriving from turkey with 84 tons of this equipment it hasnt arrived and they actually dont know when its going to arrive they admit they dont know when its going to arrive so really embarrassing for the government on this they say theyre trying their best but the focus of the conditions that Health Care Professionals are having to work under is reason is really causing a lot of criticism to come down on the shoulders of Boris Johnson and his government ok paul many thanks crossed the atlantic u. S. Oil prices have dropped to their lowest level in 2 decades as concerns of a coronavirus eclipse the deal to cut puts the may futures for the benchmark has fallen to around 11. 00 a barrel Global Demand has plummeted to travel restrictions reduce the need for oil well the crisis was compounded in march by a price war between saudi arabia and non opec member russia that ended this month when they and other countries agreed to an unprecedented output of almost 10000000. 00 Barrels Per Day to boost virus hit markets but despite that the world is still oversupplied stoking fears that prices could fall even further kristen salumi joins us live now from the New York Stock Exchange christine how low do they think it could maybe go. Yes well right now theyre worried that theyre approaching levels that havent been seen since 1999 for the. Crude which is the benchmark here thats in the low 20. 00 barrel range this is a very key indicator for the u. S. Economy and interestingly last week we saw the stock market in the United States rise even amidst all of the turmoil globally about the coronavirus and unemployment claims going up and so on and so forth theres been a lot of speculation in the market but when it comes to oil this is a key sector of the u. S. Economy and a key indicator for u. S. Industries so the concern is high right now that demand for oil is low because of less travel because of people staying at home people not going to work to man to slow the price of the stocks the supply however has continued to rise and right now theyre worried in the United States they dont even have enough room to hold the oil thats being stored and produced right now even as there are attempts in plans in the works to reduce supplies doesnt go into effect till may and right now the stockpiles are overflowing theres no demand for it and a lot of these Oil Companies in the United States have debts that they cant pay not to mention workers that they cant pay so this is certainly something thats going to be watched and is painted to make for a rough day on the stock markets when they open in less than a half hours time christine thanks very much lets bring in. The Founding Partner and chief a list. Of Technology Company based around energy comodo c c joins us on skype from new york welcome to aljazeera what does this mean. What the spin what it means its a very very challenging time to be you know a producer away theres no demand for it its very difficult to have to dispose of it its a great time to be a stories operator and you have your hands on Storage Capacity you can make a lot of money ok apart from the storage capacitors or capacity people doing well what does it mean for the consumers does it mean its good news because the price of gas in america has got to come down its a mixed tory for consumers especially in the us normally when the price goes down thats thats great for consumers its effectively a tax cut for consumers its good for industry as well in this case that doesnt apply because consumers are stuck at home and cannot really drive and use the oil so the benefit of low prices doesnt really trickle through to the economy just yet it will eventually when we get out of this then we might face the question then low prices would be a stimulant to the to the economy but thats not the case today the other problem for the us is that of course its not just a consumer so producer so producing country of producing states producing counties producing Companies People employed in the oil industry or suffer right now but the United States has made a big thing over the past what 2 or 3 years since the early days of Donald Trumps administration saying look we are Energy Independent and theyve pitched that as being a massive plus if they are truly Energy Independent doesnt the government then have to get involved and say ok you cant store the stuff because we have got enough Storage Facilities left therefore stop making the stuff. Well you know theres no such thing as independence so what happened is the u. S. History with the u. S. Has become in that import so even though its more than that export it recently. Looks at looked like it was on its way to become or to becoming a net exporter before that the price collapse happened but theres no such thing as independence because the market the market is global the prices are global and you cannot really insulate yourself from the rest of the market in fact when you are a large producer you have some advantages but you also have responsibilities and costs that come with them whether the cost is that the u. S. Funded south under pressure to cut production and to participate in cuts just like opec countries have been in the last 20 years does this mean anything potentially for the airlines i mean clearly for the foreseeable future they have less than 0 profits but when it comes to buying fuel in the way that they do ahead of time and locking in the price will the airlines now be trying to buy at this level because presumably in 36. 00 or 9 months the price will go back up again. Absolutely this was just this would definitely has that position the problem with jet surely you cannot store it for a very long time you can story for months but its not you cannot story for ever because its not as stable as well although we find products but right now of course the the heat of the moment is much much greater problem for airlines than then the cost issue is a benefit. All the time its going to be a benefit for sure is there an obvious key level to which the cost can drop at which point our government the u. S. Government here has to step in and says we will buy it. Well the a few governments have said they would use or for their Strategic Reserves by force for their Strategic Reserves or make this particular service and it is a variable to Market Participants the thing is its theoretically if Storage Capacity it gets filled out get get maxed out you could get to negative pricing the closer we get to go back to the close to it the price gets of 0 and you could actually get to negative pricing and we are seeing negative pricing today in some markets just this morning in the u. S. Morning the western canadian select the key benchmark grade in canada went negative that means producers are paying to get the oil up there and theres a cost to shutting down production and destroying that production reputably so theyre there theyre not able to slow down or to start with action in just yet that theyre paying people to get the oil of their homes ok we have to leave it there and one whole thank you very much youre welcome my pleasure thank you well with a number of american bird well beyond 40000 pressure is mounting to reopen the economy protesters in various states have heeded a call from President Trump to demand a return to work but state governors from both the major parties so its far too soon is on a gala just the u. S. Accounts for a 3rd of the worlds confirmed coronavirus cases and president don trump held up swabs claiming no nation has tested more people he says more than 4000000 people have already been screened and thats now expanding to millions more is it.

The water a lot of them they have a lot of them some of them are some of the states they were shipped to states and the states dont know where they are. At sundays briefing the white house showed favorable comments from democratic new York Governor Andrew Cuomo in what could be seen as an attempt to heal a growing political rift over trumps determination to get people back to work in new york where cases are falling but remain dangerously high Governor Cuomo says this is no time to slow precautions or reopen too quickly its no time to get cocky and its no time to get our it right we still have a lot long way to go and a lot of work to do and this virus has been ahead of us every step of the way we have been playing catch up from day one in this situation. In other parts of the nation though small groups of protesters egged on by the president continue to call for an easing of restrictions the desire to kick start the economy is growing but problems persist republican governors who really have critical words for their president said this still facing major hurdles and i could probably double maybe even triple testing in a while burchill overnight if the f. D. A. Would prioritize. Companies that are putting a slightly different formula together for the extraction reagent kit and thats if the f. D. A.

S. Lawmakers could meet as soon as wednesday to consider expanding the program but thats already running into political arguments despite the president s optimism that the u. S. Will be back in greater than ever the just tickle issues political infighting and a shortage of essential equipment persist at this point the daily briefings given by president dont trumpet become somewhat repetitive and increasingly political hes blame states governors for a shortage in testing talked about the thousands of ventilators being made and weighed in urging certain states to be liberated that death toll here is now by far the highest in the world and for many this crisis is far from over and the gallacher aljazeera miami florida.

Weather is jenny this time yesterday we saw with that storm system still unsettled in certain areas very bad across the Southern States in the piece and in fact sunday was a particularly bad day let me start by showing satellite the last few hours locals the Morning Hours across the south the southeast we have these severe thunderstorms things tend to die down so as we go through monday at the moment there have been no reports coming in of damage however this is showing in the satellite the last few hours across the southeast all that yellow mass you can see those are lightning strikes those calls all coming from these strong thunderstorms but look at the damage this is a was on sunday this is in Central Alabama really between birmingham to the north and monk or maybe just look at this now the actual ports on sunday of 8 tornadoes there in mississippi but some very strong winds in fact into southern alabama about 120 kilometer now winds so not surprising you see images like that also a very large damaging hail of damage to a 5 centimeters so you get the general idea but as we go through monday they still storms a once again republicans the southeast working their way through georgia up into the carolinas its moving fairly swiftly said by the end of the day it should be sitting off the eastern side of the country but it has been a very nice couple days and will continue on monday across into new york simplicitys guys because no sign of any storms here however by cheese day once that big storm with the thunderstorms clears away it kind of makes room for this next system to actually work its way east was this will bring snow into Eastern Canada some very strong cold winds coming across the great lakes and certainly plenty of rain into new york and d.

Risking it all. On aljazeera. If youre watching aljazeera this is your news hour these are your top stories u. S. Oil prices have dropped to their lowest level in 20 years as concerns over coronavirus eclipse the deal to cut out were talking about the me futures market its the benchmark domestically has fallen to around 11. 00 a barrel Global Demand plummeting to as lockdowns and travel restrictions reduce the need for oil and fuel. The number of coronavirus across the u. S. Meanwhile has exceeded 40000 bjork states accounts will be carful about bugs the rates of fatalities does continue to slow down. Germany is reopening some shops and allowing limited School Classes to other e. U. Governments are taking steps towards normal life infections and fatality rates slowing. Lets talk now to. Use an associate professor in Molecular Sciences at Northumbria University in the u. K. He joins us on skype from newcastle. Germany is reopening the devolving responsibility to the 16 the 16 states that make up germany thats not being reflected across the rest of europe so is there a disconnect here or are they all doing it at the right time in the right way. I think its. Very regional. Organization as to how each particular state within germany will manage its own a 1st if you like because posts are much more familiar with very bitter procedures whats happening at the high level of the European Union though and across the rest of europe oh in my humble opinion it was just a humble opinion is actually a premature we havent got the sation transmissions yet there is remaining the personal measures taken by individuals to prevent transmission us commerce us again might not be adequate was a little but in 2 to 3 weeks from now we will know whether or not this is urgent was tryna d chill ok when you say just to interrupt you so when you say in 2 to 3 weeks are you also saying in effect in 2 to 3 weeks we might be seeing a 2nd wave of infection but thats correct yes that is exactly what im saying my opinion is that we havent got on top of the ongoing transmission not to be able to safely say that within these communities there is not going to be any more or growing trees fish that is the goal we can still control the transmission of this disease and in my opinion we should actually stop it but not for me its pointless to go back into another wave of shutdowns right at the heart of the summer season. And clearly your of a mind then that says we must avoid at all costs a 2nd wave of transmissions because if there is not going to be a 2nd wave of transmissions the critics of countries who are following through and keeping a lockdown or partial lockdown in place they might say that would negate the need for a 1st lockdown so clearly there is a need for a lockdown but theyve got to pivot towards when they decide to let it go and ease up on those restrictions. Ok i totally understand people out there who have lost their jobs there are people other who. Dont look up places that they shouldnt be at school because of travel and this is terrible theres no other word for it from whats more terrible in predictions of economists if we allow a 2nd wave or 3rd were going to force weight to happen down the damage to the economy could be a lot worse opening communities now allowing commerce to return so frankly speaking if you take a step back and look at this medium to long term its actually more rational to sustain the lockdowns until such time for certain areas come to us clear of transmission those areas can start commerce again through movement and original root against the starters and we can extend this excess for what. To do start prematurely its going to damage your Healthcare System sort of damage it to the economy it could be damaging to the interests ok your quite pessimistic calculation then is based on what is it based on the number of infections coming down or flattening the curve because that if they flatten the curve we cant talk about the u. K. Because thats just not involved in this particular debate today it cant be because of whats still going on in the u. K. But when we talk about flattening the curve thats about moderating the flow the rates of people who are turning to the n. H. S. Or turning to any Health Health provider any place in europe and saying i need help. Thats right we have. To stop if possible rather than the douche the flow of people to the Health Care System this is used transmitted its its very effective loop and it presents a very heavy burden to Health Care Systems irrespective of which can prove talking about it being shown very clearly that if you have the level of screening that korea put together now you can maintain a flat. But unfortunately most of the states in europe and the United States do not have that level of treating at race we even saw the antibody tests that were evaluated in germany and indeed in the u. K. Were not good enough in order to be able to see whose hand that is its theres a certain problem as to whether or not you will gain a disease even if you had it in the 1st looks so frankly from a purely. Transmission controls point it is much more safe to contain and eradicate the disease in specific territories and control the unlock so that we do not have a perpetuation of this wave front coming again and again and again. We can choose where we want to half the damage that they want to have one period of serious damage or do we want to have a series of dunnage it wakes that may half serious consequences as a lot of my opinion is that we stick with one sharp painful but effective intervention we have to leave it there start your small source in newcastle thank you youre all. Well staying in the u. K. British doctors are planning to collect blood from curve in 1000 patients have recovered to help others who are still infected its hoped that transfusions could increase the speed of recovery and improve chances of survival britains n.

A bottle of oil a small bag of beans pasta and the can of tomato paste it doesnt seem like much but these volunteers hope it will offer some responds to iraqs most needy families struggling to get by during the coronavirus pandemic this group of University Students and recent graduates has raised private contributions through social media to fill the gaps in iraq social safety net. We dont rely on the government we depend on ourselves and the generous people who donate to us a few days ago we went to the houses of those in need we checked how many they are and what they need sometimes they dont need food they need medicine so based on the needs we register we will provide what they need. The volunteers head to our area in the shop neighborhood one of the poorest and most neglected in baghdad many here depend on daily wages but because of the month long lockdown theyve been stuck at home with no income father of 4 Mohammad Siobhan used to earn 25. 00 a day working at a restaurant before it was shut down. The impact is very big we live from day to day as you know the daily labor cannot save money even if he has money it may be enough for one week or 10 days. Many here are desperate for help but the volunteers only have 53rd baskets some criticize the group for unfair distribution but most of their anger is directed at the government which dick use of corruption and systematic neglect when i want you to come see him i was born in 950 and im a water rotten but even my pension isnt in the level or does the because the government distracted with other things that are of no benefit to us 20 percent of iraqis or 8000000. 00 people live below the officially designated poverty line but only half qualify for Social Security payments of up to 180. 00 per month the government also hands out food rations to all iraqi families though many complain about delays and poor quality now a new program has been launched to help reduce the impact of the coronavirus pandemic the government has called on families suffering from Economic Hardship to register for a special monthly allowance of 25. 00 but even for the poorest segments of Iraqi Society that would only cover a fraction of their living costs the government says it is doing enough to help iraqs poor. The government allocated 250000000. 00 for one month for 10000000. 00 people who dont have any income and what it really hurt by the curfew because of the corona virus crisis the funds are expected to be paid out by the end of the month but for many iraqis living in poverty itll be too little and too late or they need is for a curfew to be lifted so they can again return to work and fend for themselves simona 14 aljazeera but that.
