Based Johns HopkinsUniversity Says global infections have now passed 8000000 and the World Health Organization has issued new warnings about a possible 2nd wave well some of beijings neighborhoods are back in lockdown after 100 infections were confirmed the Chinese Capital had gone 50 days without any reported cases in india 15000000 people will be locked down again in the sun. In city of chennai from friday due to infections there iran 2 is considering tough new measures after announcing more than 100 deaths for a 2nd straight day infection numbers this month average high is not seen since late march during the initial outbreak it took more than 2 months for the 1st 100000 cases to be reported for the past 2 weeks more than 100000 new cases have been reported almost every single day almost 75 person or recent cases come from 10 countries mostly in the americas and so i was asia countries must stay allat to the possibility of resurgence well one of chinas top disease expert says the next 3 days will be crucial in predicting the impact of a new coronavirus resurgence in the capital some neighborhoods in beijing were put back in lockdown on sunday after 100 infections were confirmed over the last 4 days the city had gone 50 days without any reported cases. Since new cases suddenly emerged in beijing we have tried to figure out the reasons for the outbreak since there were no covert 900. 00 cases filmed of the past 2 months we came up with several possibilities and the most likely one is that the carrier of the Novel Coronavirus comes from outside china or other parts of china and brought it here and katrina who joins us live now from beijing katrina parts of the capital are back on the lockdown just bring us up to date with whats been happening. Thats right and its got a lot of frustration and people raising questions are how could this happen after not seeing any cases as you mention for more than 50 days at the moment the focus seems to be on the role of just who are trying to figure out exactly where this come from this comes from we just heard from the officials saying that theyre studying the strain of virus involved in this latest outbreak and from samples it appears that this strain is vastly different to the strain that was circulating in the Capital Capital 2 months ago so its it could be from the outside outside of china possibly europe but theyre still yet to confirm this another expert whos spoken to state media newspaper global times says that this virus strain concerning only appears to be war contagious but again authorities are yet to confirm this so its yet to be proven but as you said earlier the government says that the next 3 days will be crucial in seeing exactly how big and how severe this outbreak gets we know that the latest count is that there have been 160 cases confirmed of people to have covered 1000 over the past 5 days at least 29 neighborhoods in the city had been locked down so no people are allowed to go in and out and all those residents living in those neighborhoods have to be tested for covert 19 we also know that there have been some travel restrictions put in place so for example people from beijing are strongly encouraged not to leave the city some Long Distance buses leaving the province have been cancelled because we know that from this particular outbreak engine fogey that at least people from at least 3 different provinces have the that the has the virus has reached 3 different provinces outside of beijing so as you say to train a beijing ive gone 50 days without any reported cases i mean how worried are officials about the Economic Impact of a 2nd wave with a country just opening up. Extremely worried i mean for a long time for the since the beginning of this pandemic beijing was considered one of the safest places in china compared to the rest of the country case numbers have remained lower since the beginning of the year so. Weve seen in recent weeks a lot of establishment opening back up a lot of restrictions that we saw in terms of checks and temperatures and security checks have been relaxed people are going back to restaurants many of the Entertainment Venues have been opening back up and also its the someone else or many people were going back out and enjoying the weather now because of this just in the last few days were on the other side of the city compared to where this relative to where this outbreak is taking place but even here in downtown beijing the streets are nor simply quiet are many people have been encouraged to work from home even behind me you can see the traffic its its not as busy as it might have been last week and many establishment are closed again we had some crucial economic doctor from may come in yesterday on monday and it seems and output is bouncing back but retail sales are still quite low and its 3 percent down from this time last year and domestic consumption is a major driver of the chinese economy so it seems at this new hour because really going to deal quite a severe blow to Consumer Confidence here in china all right to continue the in the Chinese Capital beijing between a thank you.

Well europes motors are also reopening 3 months after they were shuts down when it came reports on one of those borders between germany and denmark. For much of the past few months its been almost impossible for most people to cross here in a region where cross border links are historically strong but now some restrictions have been relaxed and germans living in the border region can cross into denmark as well as some tourists planning a long stay if you are not a german citizen from sleeper holds house then you have to have a purpose for going into denmark it could be you have a vacation with 6 nights stay in denmark that will be legal purpose entering than mark but while the Danish Police have loosened the restrictions on people coming across the border into denmark on the other side their german colleagues have abandoned them which is exactly what many people in that part of germany have been hoping for for months people like down to christians who manages a number of shops just down the road from the border before corona came almost all of the customers here were scandinavian then suddenly almost all could no longer come here that would be problematic i shouldnt be easy it was a huge issue because the shutdown happened on march 13th when denmark announced no entry or exit and shortly afterwards germany followed suit so weve had 3 months of total loss and thats 3 months of total loss where you cant reduce your ongoing costs thats extreme.

President trump has confirmed hes ordering a significant reduction in the number of u. S. Troops stationed in germany he says the total will come down to about 25000. 00 soldiers the u. S. Currently has 31. 00 a half 1000 trump accuses his nato ally of being delinquent in paying for its own defense and its contributions to nato as budget germany as you know is very delinquent in their. Payments to nato. And theyre paying one percent in this supposed to be a 2 percent in the 2 percent is very low it should be much more than that so theyre delinquent of billions of dollars and this is 3 years delinquent so were removing. A number there and you would put in the number down to 25000 soldiers well see what happens. Well moxa makowski is a nonresident fellow at the Atlantic Council he says trump is incorrect to keep suggesting that germany i was the us money for nato this comes directly after reportedly chancellor merkel among others or resistant to coming to the United States for a g. 7 summit i think the president was very angry with the chancellor personally over that and of course comes over frustration that the president has had of germanys inability to meet the 2 percent the feds threshold that all allies committed to in the well summit several years ago so i would not say germany is delinquent they dont owe the United States money they dont own nato money theyre paying their nato do become the president s perception is that because germany is unable to meet the 2 percent threshold even though it has been rising in its commitment that you has the ability which you does to punish germany higher than the u. S. Forces but again those forces d are not there to protect your money those forces are there to protect all the you know. Countries as well as to protect u. S.
