Of the coronaVirus Outbreak. And the us president versus take talk donald trump threatens to ban the chinese own video sharing out of a data privacy concerns. We begin in latin america where corona virus infection numbers have doubled over the past month mexico is now eclipsed the u. K. With the 3rd highest number of deaths and then colombia has passed 10000 deaths lockdowns there are planned throughout organists and the government is expecting the peak to be reached this month all spittles in several cities including in the Capital Budget time have few available beds left in their intensive care units. Well lets speak to terrys a boat shes in buenos aires but to can update us on whats happening in colombia and elsewhere so we are seeing despite the measures that theyve taken to try and contain the virus really colombia is one of the worst affected countries in the world. Well thats correct 10 latin america as you just said is the epicenter of corona virus in the world cases have doubled in the past month 4700000 people have been infected and leading in this part of the world is 1st brazil with 92000 people have already lost their lives with covert 19 a president that you know in the very beginning denied the threat of corven 1000 for the population with people condemning the press and who also got infected with 1000 and its now traveling around the country the 2nd country is mexico 46000 people have lost their lives the 3rd most affected country in the world a dire situation there in the country and colombia 10000 people lost their lives that this was announced on friday over 30300000 people have been affected in all of this poses a major challenge for latin america mostly because it has poses a challenge for its Public Health care system but its not ready to cope with a situation on the ground be economy how its been hurt with what is going on on the ground so definitely the situation where the pandemic in latin america continues to deteriorate in the polls is a major threat for the challenge for the government in the region that try to contain it that try to impose lockdowns but this piracy as were seeing continues to spread and of course youre in argentina tell us whats happening there because we are seeing a sharp rise in the number of cases of coronavirus in recently. Well argentina was one of the 1st countries in the region to impose a lot done and this has prevented from the very beginning the spread of covert 1000 yes there are infections infections are mounting people have died but the situation for now it can argentina is until now considered to be an example right now the city of one side is has started to open up. Some shops but the challenge right now is in greater when outside is home to around 12000000 people the cases in that part of the province have greatly increase and health food is extremely rewarding because what theyre saying is that this is the hospitals could easily collapse in 2 weeks if the situation continues as it is this is a major challenge as i said before for president a lot of the for members because argentinas economy for example what is already struggling before the pandemic double digit inflation high poverty rate is currently negotiating with foreign creditors on its foreign debt argentina is right now on default and Foreign Companies are already leaving so the poverty rate unemployment continued to be on the right the popularity that it was a very very high in the beginning of the pandemic of president over the phone and this has started to drop the government for example announced the expropriation of a private company the announced a reform of the judiciary this has angered many argentineans here in the country and of course it has put the opposition on guard challenging the president and saying that he is approach towards handling the budget demick is now flawed because i didnt he now has been on lockdown now for over 4 months thank you very much from one desires to raise a. Whole nother developments russia is racing to become the worlds 1st producer of a Coronavirus Vaccine with a Mass Immunization Campaign planned for october russias Health Minister mikhail says Clinical Trials of the vaccine of been completed the plan is to vaccinate doctors and teachers 1st but some critics are concerned that russia could be fast tracking the process in an attempt to portray itself as a scientific leader says it should have a vaccine ready by the end of the year. Well gauche ations for a virus relief package in the United States of finish for the day democratic senator Chuck Schumer saying that they will productive than some of the previous talks they had but he also warned that congressional leaders in the white house a still not close to a deal the primary focus of these talks is the 600. 00 a week enhanced payment for people who qualify for Unemployment Benefits during the pandemic the scheme ended on friday and that money is seen as a vital safety net protecting people from hunger and evictions the white house offered to continue making the payments for the week but House Speaker nancy pelosi says a short Term Extension only made sense if a deal was close democrats want a longer term commitment and there are now about 30000000 people unemployed in the United States or about 20 percent of the working population on thursday more than 1400000 new people registered for Unemployment Benefits thats the 19th consecutive week that number has topped 1000000. As get more on this now from miles in jordan hes just outside washington d. C. And the general obviously those unemployment figures really showed just how badly this aid is needed millions of people affected and this situation might be about to get a lot worse for them. Well basically the paychecks coming from a state governments unemployment offices have been dispersed there wont be checks coming in the coming week or several weeks depending on how long it takes for Congressional Democrats and republicans to negotiate this deal this is of course a situation that has people very concerned this is the speaker of the house nancy pelosi who convened a saturday meeting in her offices on capitol hill. And so rosalynn where do the talks go from here obviously they have been unable to reach an agreement though that that that mean the messaging from the democrats is that perhaps it is a bit more in the tone as well positive Chuck Schumer nancy pelosi saying that the talks have been more productive and yet they still cant seem to reach a final agreement. Well when youre talking about trying to enact a bill that would add about a trillion dollars which is what the republicans want to do versus passing a bill that would spend 3 trillion dollars which is what the democrats want to do youre going to have a lot of disagreement there also components in both bills that the other side does not like and those issues have to be negotiated certainly one thing that many Congressional Democrats and a few Congressional Republicans dont like is a proposal to basically give Companies Immunity from lawsuits by their employees if they get sick while theyre on the job could Senate Republican leadership says this is absolutely crucial in order to try. To get businesses back up and running but Congressional Democrats and a few republicans say thats a nonstarter that this should not be anywhere near a bill that is really supposed to make certain that people are being able to pay their rent or their mortgage being able to buy food being able to buy medicine and being able to pay their bills this is something that is going to have to take time to get hashed out Congressional Staff and white house staff are going to be negotiating throughout the rest of this weekend the principals who were meeting today on capitol hill are going to be meeting again on monday but the senate goes into recess after this coming friday august 7th and so that puts pressure on both sides to try to reach a deal that will help as Many Americans as possible yeah the talks continue but for now its a deadlock still remains on that carnivorous relief package thank you very much residential.

Exploding it is rather fractious coalition with his former rival benny gantz and going to a 4th round of elections well it is numbers continue to be damaged by this protest and the effect theyve been having and as good of ours policy has been having on his popularity in the polls or not makes that look less likely so it could be that he has to avert elections in the short term and then we wait to see whether the transition deal where he hands over power to benny gantz next year actually happens.
