Several months into the pandemic am coded 19 testing is still beset by restrictions shortages and delays in several states for those eligible for a test long waits have to be endured and it may be a week or more before results are disclosed even with many unable to be tested the trends are all menace with coded 19 infections reported to be rising rapidly in 40 of the us is 50 states we were previously see about one inch and or even one in our tests we were doing in a community it were coming back now were seeing one inch or so about 25 percent of all the tests that were doing which weve also ran. Were seeing more of those that are coming back which concerns us for increased transmission in the Community Cases spiking in states like california and washington for the thought of virus was contained following Strict Lockdown measures that were later relaxed but there are spikes too in states which initially it seemed to have escaped the worst of the pandemic and where combat in corona virus became explicitly political with restrictions on behavior of presented as unamerican for example texas 2 weeks ago the state did finally mandate ma squaring in counties with 20 or more crude cases but the governor is still pleading with texans to follow the rules to prevent an economic shutdown all we need is for people to wear masks everyone wears a mask nothing will be locked down alabama to now mandate small squaring however in neighboring georgia the governor signed a late night executive order on wednesday prohibiting cities from ordering mosque usage and in oklahoma where cases are also surging the governor who himself has tested kovac in 1000 positive is Standing Firm not thinking about a mass mandate and all this will complicate the actions of my. Retailers who now do mandate mask usage in their Stores Walmart one of the latest saying in a statement because the virus can be spread by people who dont have symptoms im dont know who theyre infected its critically important for everyone to wear a Face Covering in public but more than a 3rd of walmarts rules are in areas with no mosque mandate no im not going to put it and im not going to do that retail workers feel very being told to enforce the mosque mandates with no extra support and im not doing it so i woke up in a free country and the fact is that americas food retail meat packing Health Care Workers should not be the ones that have to do the enforcement it should be the companies and not government in addition even as major retailers mandate mosques in their stores they still refuse to disclose how many of their workers have been infected are sick and have died both in stores and across their supply chains she had her chance the aljazeera mike hanna is live for us in washington d. C. So might go back to the figures i mean quite to say. Indeed a massive surge and figures just released by the centers for Disease Control indicate that the death toll by august the 8 could rise to 170000 people dead so certainly this is a grim grim statistics emerging incidentally the trumpet ministration had cut the c. D. C. Out of the loop insisting that all coronavirus data cunt directly to d. C. To the Health Department however after 24 hours and Massive Public uproar the c. D. C. Has been reinstated as the premier of coronavirus data but certainly these figures are staggering spikes continuing in a number of states we now have 27. 00 states plus the district of columbia which mandate the wearing of masks but they are still some states that do not such as oklahoma as we heard mentioned there so certainly there is no clarity or theres no central process in terms of combating this particular pandemic and this was emphasized by merrylands governor larry hogan whos written an article in which you says at the very beginning of the pandemic because there was no assistance from federal government mary land itself had to import hundreds of thousands of mosques from south korea this he did as the governor he points out you the republican governor who got no assistance whatsoever from the Central Government this is something that were hearing from a number of governors throughout the United States as the infection rate and the death toll continues to rise mike hanna thank you very much indeed.

Thats correct 2000000 people have been infected with corona virus an average of 1000 people are dying every day or 76000 people have lost their lives in brazil on wednesday president ially it was one out of tested positive for a 2nd time in the country for coral now virus he is currently being treated with a controversial and 10 malaria drug that he says its working for him in spite of the side effects that the World Health Organization says that this drug could have in the meantime some cities like so paul or religion they dont have started to open up restaurants and Shopping Center but what most experts are saying and whats new right now is that the virus is spreading and its reaching cities that have been spared until now. This is the old obit of a Public Hospital in the city of qom been years in brazil just northwest of sao paulo video from the hospital shows there are no available i. C. U. Beds left to treat couvade 19 patients the food it was recorded by a doctor who works at a facility but does not want his identity to be revealed Health Officials in the city have a knowledge of the corona virus has become a Major Public Health threat as instances of many days with 100 percent of i. C. U. Bed occupation for around 10 days some people had to wait to get an i. C. U. Beat they could all get medical care but had to wait for a vacancy. Even though the number of over 1000 cases have started to decrease in brazils main cities it is in smaller ones like m b yes where the number of Coronavirus Infections continue to rise. Outside the hospital people wait in line to be treated michael is one of them hes father hes receiving treatment for the disease ripple of them to of. Our kind to test the code because my father got the disease and hes actually need to care right now accompanied him to hospital and since i had flu symptoms or trying to get tested couldnt do it brazils president who tested positive for the virus remains in isolation he says hes being treated with hydroxy chloral queen despite some warning against using the drug by the World Health Organization. Its worked for me and many people many doctors say it works im not campaigning for this remedy even because its cost is very low i mean thats why im some people down for it others feel they doing that for ideological reasons it seems but the fact is its working. Also not always being criticized for his handling of the crisis cost by covert 19. 00 he opposed lockdowns are referred to the disease early on as a little flu to Health Ministers resigned because of differences of opinion with the president now the ministries being run by an active duty military general sees a lot of us willow took office at least 25 members of the military have been appointed in his Ministry HumanRights Groups say they are concerned we have like 9 ministers. 3000 people in a hard ministration. Declaring the ministry of health. She was challenging theres no way they were not going to. Wear nothing i am. Somebody who will follow its instruction and so its. Very. So. Over 75000 people have died of covert 19 in brazil many people believe those deaths could have been prevented evil only the president had responded differently. They dont want out of continues to have the support of a wrong 30 percent of the population but theres a growing number of people that are infuriated of the way the federal government has dealt with a crisis they believe that whats going on in brazil could have been prevented most experts are saying that the amount of cases in brazil are currently under reported mostly because of lack of testing and lack of tracking also a model used by brazilian institutions and universities and based on the amount of people that died said that the amount of people infected in brazil could be closer to 10000000 people to visible thank you very much indeed one of indias poorest and most populous states has been locked down for 2 weeks to stop a surge in corona virus cases infections are rising after hundreds of thousands of Migrant Workers return to their homes in Bihar Medical Services in the region a week and the authorities fear hospitals could be overwhelmed indias one of the worlds worst hit countries find only of United States and brazil its reported nearly 1000000 infections and almost 25000 deaths. Whats happening in the hard is significant because its the entire state its indias 2nd most populous state a population of nearly 130000000 people who are going into lockdown for 2 weeks and as you mentioned behind is one of indias most impoverished states and so the number of cases there are concerning because it has one of the if not the worst Public Health care system in the country its conducting some of the lowest number of tests less than a 10th of the tests that say delhi has been conducting every day and the other reason why the situation in bihar is concerning is because of the very large number of Migrant Workers who returned to be had when the National Lockdown was imposed in late march 2 point 5000000 people who work outside of the state returned often traveling and unhygienic conditions now its all of these reasons that the State Government there has imposed the lockdown but one of the criticisms whether its in bihar or elsewhere all of these lock downs which we are seeing more and more across india is that they are accompanied with very Little Information given this such a harsh measure and be hard for instance we havent heard from the government about how theyre going to use the time off to lock down whether theyre going to increase testing will improve Contact Tracing all of which you know just as important measures to contain the outbreak as a lockdown itself British Court says a young woman who was stripped of her citizenship for joining us so in syria can return to the u.

Request to return home was always going to be a controversial one if the governments decision to revoke her british citizenship was also criticized their reason because her mother was born in bangladesh by go automatically had citizenship of that country but that was refuted by the Bangladeshi Government itself the home office has called the ruling very disappointing the heart of this is not a question of shamima back citizenship itself rather have access to her right to appeal. The government its become a problematic political issue the move by the British Government had effectively left begum stateless going against International Law but they maintain that she still poses a Security Threat so the idea that you know male pointers who are mocking the risk or allow. Her to citizenship stripped only when she appeared in tabloid press is is the actual question of how is a.

C. L. U. In june republicans and i was senate rejected a measure that would have allowed people in the state to weigh in on a constitutional amendment ending the lifetime voting ban for convicted felons to find out. Why i contacted about a dozen senators and the state and county Republican Party no one responded. Its the latest setback in a more than decade long fight to abolish the ban i think i ones are much more awake now to the fact that this is a injustice really that formerly convicted felons who have completed their senses are not allowed to vote puts a stain on our state were the only state in the country like this across america the sentencing project says 6100000 convicted felons couldnt vote in the 26000 president ial election due to various state laws africanamericans are 4 times more likely than other racial groups to be disenfranchised this is one of many ways that our voting system.
