The Police Shooting of a black man 7 times has brought protesters back onto the streets of several u. S. Cities crowds have come out in new york minneapolis and the city of konoha wisconsin where the shooting happens. To gas was fired to force back crowds and can osha an overnight curfew is in place on the National Guard has been brought in 29 year old jacob blake was shot in the back as he leaned into his s. U. V. John hendren reports from can osha. Think about the body once again a local mayor struggles to answer for the problem of a black mayor all that no matter. How you are. Only the shooting captured on mobile phone is difficult to watch jacob blake apparently on normed walks around his s. U. V. His 3 children unseen inside seeming to ignore the Police Following behind at the door an officer grabs him by the shirt his back to police. Police fires 7 shots. The shooting set off a night of protests in the streets the city blocking roads with garbage trucks demonstrators set them on fire leaving behind charred chances including a neighboring car lot and a message on a courthouse wall it would be clear this was not an accident this wasnt Bad Police Work this felt like some sort of been dead a being taken out on a member of our community the officers daily actions attempted to take a persons life in broad daylight the shooting drew condemnation from president ial candidate joe biden who issued a statement saying the nation wakes up yet again with grief and outrage that yet another black american is a victim of Excessive Force these shots pierced the soul of our nation.

If you think about the Civil Rights Movement one of the things that gave the Civil Rights Movement its power was that it happened at the same time as you see basically a national t. V. Video the t. V. Last video news apparatus developed so right so people could actually see with their own eyes basically black southerners and in some cases their white colleagues and white comrades being brutalized and that really shifted our red shifted our attitudes about jim crow racism it shifted our political policy right but at the same time its important to stand that those policy changes happened a long time after everything started 10 to 15 years after you actually get the policies because youre talking about political change this isnt a National Dynamic even though it occurs nationally police are governed by state politics right so in the wisconsin case can no suspensions approximately 25 percent of its budget of policing more than any other indicator in order to change that what has to happen is it is simple is getting trapped out of office you actually have to engage in wisconsin politics and that stuff takes a while so the reason i talk about that is because its really important for folks to understand is not as if george floyd is killed in may and jacob blake is killed and nothing changes is this that people have to understand that this is literally a long term struggle. Donald trump has accused the democrats of working to steal the election on the 1st day of the Republican Party convention in North Carolina speakers on the 1st day rallied against what they say is the threat of socialism and the democrats radical left this year the Republican Party has not published its own platform instead vowing blanket support for trumps agenda the convention is crucial as trump seeks to reverse his slump in opinion polls.

The 1st documented case of a patient being we infected with corona virus has been reported in hong kong researches at the university of hong kong say a 33 year old man fell sick again 4 months after his 1st bout in march but Scientists Say hes suffering from a different strain of the virus and unlike his 1st infection the 2nd time he did not have any symptoms he searches have suggested that patients who recover from the corona virus are immune to reinfection but that antibody levels can fall after a few months World Health Organization warns against jumping to any conclusions based on just one case julie fisher is an associate Research Professor of microbiology and immunology at the director of the elizabeth r. Griffin program at Georgetown UniversityMedical Center she says this latest development suggests that re infection in patients can happen at any symptoms being present. Its so its not so much a mutation as the virus is error prone when it replicates mistakes get introduced into its genome and over time to virus sort of drifts away so that there are distinct families and thats what appears to have happened in this case it appears that he was previously infected with with a variant strain that was circulating in the u. S. In march and that the most recent. Re infection was with a newer strain thats circulating in europe currently what it means is that it confirms that even though people do make antibodies while they are infected which is a sign of immunity that winning immunity may allow them to be infected again the interesting thing news here is that this was actually caught by a screening a mandatory screening at an airport and the single case did not have any symptoms at all so its very difficult to extrapolate that to the whole population but it tells us that its possible that that for just infection does can for protection against severe disease but it clearly does not mean that the that once a person has recovered that they are protected from ever becoming infected again and its clear that they may be able to transmit the virus to others even though they themselves are not showing any symptoms germany has issued travel warnings for 2 regions in france including the capital paris due regions which also include parts of the french bread vieira and now considered high risk it comes france and other parts of europe seeing a rising number of new infections.
