Not if the central bank funded the state we didnt spend the money we need to know her the money was spent the central bank doesnt have the capability for oversight this is a campaign against a central bank and particularly its governor. The Central Bank Governor defended himself after the Prime Minister has sat indirectly accused him of trying to topple the government by engineering the collapse of the local currency the pound along with lebanons worst economic crisis and decades is a struggle for power. Protestors anger is targeting the banks and the government which took over in january but has still to present the plan to save the economy lebanons foreign reserves are dwindling what we need to do is to dismantle a government that have been channeled through which Government Spending.

Welcome back youre watching aljazeera live from doha my names pizza dopy our top stories new Financial Data shows the impact of the coronavirus pandemic is having on the world economies the u. S. And germany and nigeria the economic heart of africa all among countries experiencing their worst recessions this year. The libyan wall orderly for half that has announced a cease fire the most important month of ramadan early on where state he was accused of ordering an attack that killed at least one person in tripoli. And an aljazeera team has learned that a plane carrying prominent officials from the u. A. E. To the sudanese capital khartoum on tuesday sources say the amorality delegation was meeting sudanese officials to discuss military support for. More now on the coronavirus pandemic joining us on the program dr Clayton Dalton hes an emergency medicine resident physician at the Massachusetts General Hospital in boston he joins us on skype dr dalton thanks for making time to talk to us american politicians across the board generally seem to be wanting the coronavirus to be willed into a situation so they can say the worst is behind us were heading down that road now is that your experience. It is my experience and im im concerned about where that might lead us and i think from my perspective were heading into something thats more like a plateau base and what that means is that we have a steady number of patients going to the hospital each day instead of more patients each day it seems like where a place where its about the same number every day and miss may go on for several weeks or even longer we dont know. It means that we flattens the ship over and in these in boston were not likely to be overwhelmed in the way that hospitals and in detroit or new york or new orleans were but we were still a ways away from being completely through this and i am concerned with some of the rhetoric towards opening things up. Im afraid that my that might put more people at risk or if we do it before ready flattening the curve means there is less strain on people like yourself and your colleagues at your hospital does that mean that you can metaphorically and emotionally if you will also take a breather and kind of assess way you all instead of just firefighting you can take that step back if only for say a half an hour a day were still busy were still seeing a lot of patients coming in with current 90 and some of them are critically ill were still doing lots of them to be asians. In a sense i think we feel a little bit of relief knowing that we likely wont face the sort of tidal wave that could overwhelm a system that we were fearful might come our way but were still going busy are still a lot of work to be done and i dont i dont think were ready to move on and say that we are through the worst of this i think we still have a lot of work ahead of us to do there are still many more people who will get sick and who will need us in the hospital where are we when it comes to your state opening up for business and does this idea of doing that through a process of step change stage by stage can that work. I think it can work so in massachusetts where i where i work the governor has announced i believe yesterday the day before that he was going to sue for longer than 3 weeks because of lockdown right now which is the nonessential does the circle. And you know meetings or groups of people are banned is going to extend after several weeks because well the data says that were not ready to start opening up yet and i do think that a phased approach could work i think we have to be very careful about it and the most important thing is that we need to listen to our Public Health authorities the reason why we were overwhelmed in boston the reason why we had enough capacity and hospital grounds enough inhalators to care for every single patient is because we follow the recommendations from our Public Health authorities we closed businesses remember gatherings really for social distancing its worked and that that puts us as Health Care Providers at decreased risk and it also means that our patients get better care so we need to listen to them about when were ready to start opening up and how to do that and im worried were seeing some states that are sort of charging ahead. Searingly in sort of contrast to whats being recommended by our our medical leaders and what concerns me ok and when you talk about medical leaders not wishing to make this too british or european centric it was Winston Churchill who said that scientists should be on tap they shouldnt be on top and there has been this kind of abrasive relationship doesnt there on the world not just in the states not just in your states i guess as well between the science the scientists the doctors the medical advisers and the politicians so when donald trump says its going to go away and the 4th quarter is going to be fantastic or he said its going to be wonderfully said but just in the past hour or so what goes through your mind when you hear your president saying that kind of thing offset against mixed messages you know the Vice President going to the mayo clinic not wearing a mosque and on top of that other mixed signals coming out from different sources. It makes it pretty angry to be frank. How do you providers in general are pretty level headed rocks we receive a lot of things that are challenging and difficult now the name there is kind of a foreign emotion i think for a lot of us sort of for myself but i mean weve got this i think its reckless and its dangerous. I wish i wish that there was that he would stop being given a microphone i just think that everything every decision hes made nearly everything he says that theres been some degree of wrong or dangerous and its just hard to watch its really hard to watch dr dalton we appreciate you making the time to come and talk to us here on aljazeera great to have your your insight thank you so much work to earn stairwell. It appears to be positive news on the treatment front top u. S. Infectious diseases a virus that dr anthony folks she says theyre seeing progress in trials with the antiviral drug from disappear. So the average Recovery Time was cut from 15 days to 11 while the u. S. National institutes of health reported a marginally better mortality rate although with 31 percent improvement doesnt seem like a knock out 100 percent it is a very important proof of concept because what it is proven is that a drug can block this virus a vaccine being developed in oxford in the u. K. Could be available by september in syria but as john a whole reports the success of social distancing may cause the bank seen to be delayed. This is the new normal the to me to safe distance we must keep that defines life for many people now. And danger for those who cant. But for how long when will it end. The answer in part lies in the global race for a vaccine against coded 19 edward oneil is a medical research or taking part in what is currently the worlds most well advanced vaccine trial at Oxford University there is a very good well qualified tame trying to do everything they can as carefully and as quick as they can so that we have great confidence in the results i myself am one of many volunteers who wanted to be part of it i think we all want to have the walk down to end but more importantly to help save lives scientists at oxfords Jenner Institute began a trial involving 1100 people last week which theyre expanding to 6000 participants in may if successful and with a fast track to approval from the regulator the 1st few 1000000 doses of a vaccine could be available by september and theyve just received good news from labs in the United States where half a dozen rhesus macaque monkeys the closest animal species to humans were given the oxford back scene and then exposed to large quantities of the virus 28 days later all 6 were reported healthy thats no guarantee of success of course and nor of the oxford scientists alone as a Chinese Company thats also had positive results with a rhesus macaque monkeys there are at least 2 u. S. Companies and a german one that have launched small scale Clinical Trials and theyre among dozens into which millions of dollars are being poured in the search for a vaccine the Scientific Community is only cautiously optimistic with many vaccines you only get a proportion of the population becomes of me in and so the virus can keep circulating but a much lower rate so we should hope that any scene will absolutely limit. In a matter of months or even years but it should be very helpful in helping control works and as a lot will. And the challenges mount daily successful trials depend on participants injected with the vaccine being exposed naturally to the virus. As infection rates decline in some parts of the world that becomes harder to achieve the success of social distancing measures therefore the new normal may paradoxically make the wait for a vaccine even longer join a whole aljazeera oxford.

The president whose middle name is messiah is also trying to brush off the soaring number of deaths from 19. A lament it but what he would expect me to do a messiah but i cant do miracles people waiting to receive emergency aid for the pandemic were outraged like myself out of a 100.
