A hospital in the capital and a funeral in the east are targeted. Bringing back coronavirus restrictions lebanons government orders of full closure of the country in one week after easing measures. A leading member of the u. S. Coronavirus task force is calling on states not to rush to ease restrictions Dr Anthony Fauci has warned of serious consequences including needless death is among the experts testifying before senators theyre reviewing the trumpet ministrations handling of the pandemic and discussing plans to to lift lockdowns but folks he said that ignoring guidelines could result in an outbreak that states may be unable to control. Lets go live to our White House Correspondent kimberly halted kimberly one gets the impression that many of Donald Trumps opponents were hoping that dr fox he was going to speak very freely about the way that the Top Administration has handled this it strikes me that hes been much more measured in the way that hes been talking to senators hes been more measure but there are some points that dr anthony found she has made this Top Public Health official in the United States are one of the Top Public Health officials that are in direct contradiction with the u. S. President for example as the us president on monday said that essentially the United States has prevailed in dealing with covert 19 here in the United States this seems to contrast the testimony that just has just come from dr anthony found she essentially that wow this is certainly something that the Top Public Health officials are dealing with his caution against any sort of premature reopening of the economy or the even the speculation that this will simply go away something that the u. S. President has at times not only suggested but openly hoped for take a listen to what Dr Anthony Fauci told the Health Committee just moments ago they feel if that occurs it is a real risk that you will trigger an outbreak you may not be able to control them which in fact after dark simply will set you back only leading to some suffering and it could be avoided it could even set you back road to try to get economic recovery if you would almost turn that clock back rather than Going Forward that is my Major Concerns donald trump of course has a history of firing people that dont agree with them but whats the risk that this might put dr fox he on a collision course with the president. Well dr anthony found she has history on his side the fact that hes been in his role for decades he is well respected d even if it times not everyone in the United States agrees with his advice much like a patient and their doctor you dont always get told what you want to hear but that doesnt mean you dont respect the scientific and educational background and i think that similar with Dr Anthony Fauci there would be tremendous outrage if he was removed from his post in any sort of way particularly because the comments coming from him in this hearing have been so measured having said that there are some uncomfortable realities from this testimony that may not sit well with the u. S. President particularly the number of deaths you remember at one point the u. S. President justify the closing of the economy theory there could be 2000000 people that could die from covert 19 then he downgraded that number to 60000 will that number has come and gone the United States approaching 81000 deaths but dr anthony found shes saying in fact he believes the number is far higher that there were many people in the early days particularly the outbreak in new york that were dying alone at home did not get medical treatment as a result have not been counted the other main headline coming from this is the fact that Dr Anthony Fauci is also saying that there is no way right now that students can go back to School Without broader more widespread testing but in his view that is simply a bridge too far and well this administration continues to argue that it is wrapping up testing as of late yesterday has done about 9000000 tests there are more than 338000000 people in this country theres still a long way to go are reality that was acknowledged by Top Public Health officials you know that hearing is still ongoing and senator Elizabeth Warren is currently questioning the doctor for she at the moment i know were going to be checking in with you can really as this goes on but for now thanks very much indeed.

First day back to school in the swiss town after nearly a 2 month break and there are mixed emotions classes are only half full desks are regulation 2 metres apart but still you cant be sure all the spots i think weve had all dose of anxiety everyone the pupils feel as parents so its difficult to get back to the way walls in northern italy where the european outbreak really began theyre taking things even slower not even using a School Facility but a public gym as a pilot scheme using a small group of 6 to 10 year olds to see if its even possible to socially distant small children who are used to wanting to be close together.
