K. s Prime Minister has ordered a National Lockdown for all of england as governments across europe race to tighten restrictions and prevent surging coronavirus cases from overwhelming the continents hospitals more than 1000000 people have been affected in the u. K. Which is your worst hit country and deaths have been climbing daily cave at 19 has killed more than 46500 people here prompting the government to close nonessential shops and restrict Restaurants Services until the 5th of december when one. Austria has announced a curfew and partial closure of cafes bars and restaurants after 5600. 00 new cases were reported on friday the government has warned that 6000. 00 daily infections would push hospitals beyond capacity if aka reports a major u. Turn in the British Government covert 19 strategy for weeks the Prime Ministers insisted on local restrictions to avoid the need for a nationwide lockdown but infections have just continued rising as across much of europe the virus is spreading even faster than the reasonable worst Case Scenario over scientific advisors from thursday into the store to december you must stay at home you merely leave home for specific reasons im afraid nonessential shops leisure and Entertainment Venues will be closed the virus is spreading much faster than forecast the 2nd peak could be one and a half times higher than the 1st with as many as 4000. 00 deaths a day the government hopes to use the new lockdown as an opportunity to dramatically accelerate testing there is one consolation though schools and universities can remain open and relief for parents struggling with childcare leading scientists advise the British Government last month to introduce a 2 week Circuit Breaker lock down when the infection rate started to creep up again the government resisted citing concerns over the health of the economy in scotland where tighter restrictions have been in place in september there is some evidence to suggest that the infection rate there is. But here in england Boris Johnsons gamble hasnt paid off the u. K.

But with many of europes economies in trouble the prospect of more months of covert confinement is difficult to. Leave barca aljazeera london. I speak to dr chris smith at the university of cambridge he is also host of the naked scientists podcast and joins us via skype thanks very much for being with us so do ringback you believe in particular how much difference do you think this kind of a lockdown will make to the to the rise in the number of cases really difficult to say i wish i had a crystal ball about the government wish they had a crystal ball easy to be wise in retrospect looking back in retrospect though it did take quite a while in march and april before we saw the numbers get down to the low levels we enjoyed over the summer this is only a month or so my fear is that what will happen is that the numbers will be curtailed by this measure but when reviewed in early December Itll be decided that weve still got a long way to go and were going to have to keep with these measures i think thats a very real prospect unless theres a very radical turnaround and i dont see that happening and after the 1st wave there was much talk about how much different testing and tracing would make to the outcome why is that not being the case you think. Were testing and tracing is very useful but its only really very useful when the numbers are really low because if you think about it we estimate that here in the u. K. At the moment theres Something Like 100000 cases per day occurring now if each of those people is had contact with a handful of other people youre trying to track down at that sort of scale half a 1000000 contacts every day and weve only got Testing Capacity for say 300000 so its just not possible these sorts of strategies are really very effective when theres very little virus circulating in the community so the ultimate goal should be to drive down the level of virus to a very low level and then implement this sort of strategy trying to implement it with this level of circulation youre on a hiding to nothing its frustrated further by the fact that what was unanticipated with this virus and weve learned the hard way across the entire world actually is that maybe half to 2 thirds of cases of this virus have no symptoms whatsoever and since were triggering all of our intervention points with testing and then intervening were tracking and tracing off the back of a person having symptoms that means a half the time were not going to be tracing cases of the virus because those people wont have any symptoms or at least not appreciable symptoms that triggers a test and thats another frustration in terms of where we are now compared with the 1st wave or the situation in back in march and so on how do you set the mortality rate now from from kevin 19 as that improved or not. Well in terms of per case and i guess youre asking if you were to go to hospital tomorrow with a diagnosis of corona virus would your outcome be different now compared to what we were doing back in march and april the certainly been a lot of learning and i think weve certainly learned a lot about how we manage these cases weve learned a lot about why the disease progresses in the way this it does we have some drugs that are showing some promise now the front runner there is the steroid dexa method zone which the recovery trial at the university of oxford showed very clearly that if you give that to the most severe cases you can cut their mortality rate by up to a 3rd and thats a very dramatic turnaround theres been other discoveries too including things like the effect that the virus has on blood clotting and how we manage that intervention early with oxygen therapy for example which can have consequences for how the immune system works and fights off the virus and maybe even the drug rendez of fear which has had something of a checkered history but actually overall it doesnt seem to make a huge difference but actually if you focus the therapy with that drug on a specific subset of the people who have the virus it may actually make quite a big difference so yes i think your outcome now would be quite different where you go to hospital with coronavirus than if you were one of the 1st tier of people who went back in in march and april but lets not forget if you do end up sufficiently able to go sufficiently that you end up going to hospital you know if you end up in intensive care its not a given that youre coming out again about half the time people dont so this is not grounds for complacency and one of the things the Prime Minister talked about was that was the issue trying to keep the n. H. S. Functioning for other illnesses as well how much difference do you think it will make this time around you think that systems are in place so that actually theyll be able to Keep Health Care open for all the other illnesses which otherwise otherwise because people in more deaths in those categories. You know this was back at march april we keep referring to that but its a very important thing to consider chris witty the chief medical officer said there will be primary deaths from coverts but there will be secondary deaths these are deaths where people die because of the coronavirus pandemic but not from the coronavirus and this is the knock on domino effect if you rob resources out of one sector of the n. H. S. In order to prop up its ability to cope with acute cases of coronavirus then you begin quite quickly to accrue an enormous clinical iceberg of cases of various diseases in the community and in hospital people francis having a heart attack cant get to a hospital because there are no ambulances because theyre all tied up dealing with people with groan of arson in thats a slightly extreme example but thats what im getting at and certainly this is a risk and its that risk that has prompted the government to act arguing that across the u. K. Even though there are some areas that still show very low levels of virus in terms of absolute numbers at the moment the rate of change in those areas is sufficiently high that if allowed to grow the way its growing elsewhere in the country because its relatively easy to overwhelm the Health Care Services in those parts of the country for various reasons there is a big risk which is why theyre acting at this stage they say in order to try to rein that in i mean that we can defend the n. H. S. Better so we dont get those secondary knock on effects dr chris smith thank you very much indeed for talking to us pleasure. Greek orthodox priest has been shot and wounded in the french city of rio priest was fired on twice as he was closing a church a suspect has been arrested. Meanwhile French Police have arrested a 4th suspect linked to thursdays knife attack a nice 3 people were killed in the attack on the church David Chaytor has more from nice. Here in nice have been a lot of People Police patrols theyve been increased around this specific or all day people have been arriving to pay tribute to the victims of the knife attack on thursday night and during that time politicians been making some extreme statements some who said that they should change the constitution to allow a proper war to be fought on those who are who are coming from extreme islam is ideology theyre not trying to say theres a war against the religion of islam but against this extreme ideology and at the same time president has reached out to try and calm events here and across the world he said that he of course understood why cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad did upset many muslims but he said also that any violence was unacceptable so hes moving towards trying to to moderate his tone at least to try and bring back to the communities to the values of france to police here in nice and across the country and they are sending out many more patrols theyve got assault rifles with them also there will be increased army patrols as part of operation sensible number of troops on the ground in france will increase from 30027000 more than doubled to make sure there is security around all the bundle places places like public parks parks places like places of worship for all creeds and of course schools so tense and nervous here in nice and across many parts of france because they believe that there could be more attacks. Just as in pakistans biggest city apparent effigies of the french president in one year. And then angry protests across several muslim countries after a fine. The right to mock religion and vowed to crack down on what he calls radical islam the rally in karate for similar protests in the capital islamabad on friday. And hundreds of people have been chanting anti french slogans in the west bank city of ramallah thousands of people also took part in rallies in hebron and East Jerusalem earlier this week as to new shops have been removing french products from the shelves. On a mini wreck or sat down with there to discuss the wave of anger against him the french president says what he calls radical islam is a threat to everybody including muslims welcome pauly sentiments in a very i understand the sentiments being expressed and i respect them but you must understand my role right now its to do 2 things to promote calm and also to protect these rights because if you are clicking are mostly causal to me what i want to say is very clear that today in the world there are people who distort islam and in the name of this religion that they claim to defend they kill they slaughter they make speeches justifying a kind of expulsion of human groups from the world today there is violence practiced by some extremist movements and individuals in the name of islam of course this is a problem for islam because muslims are the 1st victims and as i mentioned before more than 80 percent of the victims of terrorism are muslims and this is a problem for all of us the problem yes and to a t. Is a Civil Liberties activist and the head of the justice and liberties for all committee he joins me via skype from paris thanks very much for being with us just want to ask you 1st of all what you make of president michaels interview will it go some way towards dampening down the anger towards him and friends. I mean in many women is already out of touch with their attitudes of millions of people in france you know hes showing that hes really ill advised how can the can he on the one hand say he stands against a white record without ever defining it he would do that in practice in france people have been right labeled radical muslims for fasting good with the month of ramadan for praying 5 times a day or wearing the headscarf in the same basket that would practicing muslims and terrorists killing muslims for us all around the world the frame trying now to muslims and i understand your frustration or just stand your feelings but i want to promote freedom of speech then how is it in france for example you get fined 7500 euros for this equipping the french flag or what hes basically saying is that youre not adult enough to hold a feeling that we can you know consider and in many ways because corner of himself with this identity politics hes in sudanese to act as a president not as a lobbyist or are as an ideologue if you wish and what i found is rotting out of control and there are reasons to worry and want to ask he also tweeted today. Secularism as never killed anyone defending the principle which is known as a state of the separation of church and state what do you think he meant in the context of islam in france in particular what how do you relate that to to this issue. To be honest im going to make a governess it was quite unbelievable that he would publish that tweet as just after leaving the aljazeera studio after finishing his interview and as you noticed madame and if the tweet was not in english or in arabic what it did was send a message so right now after whining and jazzier about how he has been misquoted and misunderstood you know it came back to the french audience saying we never a bucket down so what is this this week is out today incomplete is that a kid in you and maybe he meant unlike some think it is or unlike other peoples beliefs etc so thats what you need to stop over to the fire and deal with france as a country that is supposed to protect a priest got shot today and im very pessimistic about the outcome of his a shooting 3 people get killed 2 days ago another one that was beheaded 10 days ago all of that in an atmosphere of a menu in mccall trying to boost his hes a running for reelection in 22 on identity but it is and his socalled war against islam isnt again madam we have no definition whatsoever over what they can assist in of radical islam or anything like that so that means they can go after any muslims other they are doing today they raided dozens of homes mosques and muslim n. G. O. S across france and then we have the minister of interior saying we have got nothing legally speaking against them but we are sending a message of 2 days later he goes on arent saying i am also shocked that there are how shelves in supermarkets my question is are you going to fight terrorism by burning kind of food in supermarkets we need to do it in the room right now and this country needs responsible people say adults who are on that point as it was about exactly what measures you think would make a difference because presumably there are. A number of big issues that are there and theres also this climate of of anger because of the the attacks that you mentioned so what measures do you think would be effective to to try and calm things down also to reduce the risks. I mean part of me but im for being blunt but emotive and mccall as i said earlier is already out of touch for millions of us and hes already ill advised what he needs right now is to get rid of the blind ideologues surrounding him and get some real advisers with that with a proven track record on Foreign Policy and domestic policy the 2nd one easier to overhaul of our Foreign Policy and also our counterterrorism and the 3rd one if hes talking about islam being hijacked by terrorists how about dealing with muslims as adults and let them speak for the said visit and allow them to organize if they are the 1st victims of terrorism across the world they need to stop being treated as suspects and the 1st victims of terrorism i am sure if you give them the necessary platforms they will come up with a solution that works for everybody just pick 11 not muslim all across french media right now you dont see a single muslim being given a platform you only have white people speaking on behalf of muslims in their out sense how can we have a solution in this atmosphere when the 1st victims of terrorism are invisible and the president speaks for them and on their behalf yes and i thank you very much indeed for talking to us and i was there pressure to thank them.

Oh its just 3 days until the u. S. President ial election intensive campaigning is taking place in the key battleground states President Donald Trump is holding no fewer than 4 rallies in pennsylvania a state he won by the narrowest of margins 4 years ago challenger joe biden has been speaking alongside former president barack obama in michigan trump trails in the polls but is predicting a late surge will deliver him a victory a great red wave is. Here there. Sure is were here together that wave is forming and they see they see it also. And theres not a thing they can do about it. Can be helped it is in reading in the u. S. State of pennsylvania one of Trumps Campaign stops and quite a number of Campaign Stops on this particular leg of the tour. Thats absolutely right this one is already wrapped up in the president is now about 90 minutes drive from here where he is going to be doing his for the Campaign Stop in the u. S. State of pennsylvania why is the president besting so much time here because hes making 4 stops today another stop tomorrow and another stop on monday the reason is that pennsylvania is one of a handful of states that ultimately could decide the u. S. Election now donald trump won this state in 2016 rather narrowly after it had for years been typically a democratic leaning state hes counting on doing it again thats why you heard him talking about this red wave of republican support he is hoping that despite the fact that in National Polls and polls in the state that have joe biden ahead that he actually will surprise everyone yet again and counter the polls so he is hammering out that message he painted a very apocalyptic picture of a biden presidency as he spoke in front of his supporters talked about the fact that taxes will be raised he said that jobs will be cut and the stock market will crash it appears the president is really hammering an economic message in order to try and convince voters who have not yet cast their ballots to vote for him can reallocate thank you very much indeed trumps democratic rival turbine is appearing twice in michigan another key swing state i dont want for president barack obama a martyr says youre a super. Power to change their country is not fair is learning when you are. I dont care how hard donald trump tries theres nothing let me say it again theres nothing that he can do to stop the people who station from voted in overwhelming numbers and terry came back this democracy john hendren joins us now from detroit where biden and obama are holding another Campaign Event so why is this area particularly important for the democrats. Well michigan is key for a number of reasons but one of them is that it was a key state that donald trump flipped from democratic to republican in 2016 and he did it by the narrowest of margins 0. 2 Percentage Points its about 10000 votes well here in detroit there were about 75000 people who voted for barack obama but did not vote for Hillary Clinton so the margin is right there earlier that little snippet that you played from joe biden that was in flint michigan not far away about an hours drive and thats another area where about 25000 people voted for Hillary Clinton and barack obama rather and not Hillary Clinton so you got about 100000 votes in these 2 places and whats key is that theyre both majority africanamerican so its no coincidence that youve got the most popular black democrat in America Barack obama and Stevie Wonder. Musician hes now in his seventys so hes not getting the youth vote but hes still very popular here where people will remember him well so theyre trying to drive out the africanamerican vote because there are many many africanamericans here who didnt vote in 2016 that alone would be enough to flip michigan and if you flip michigan back to the democrats donald trump loses if he doesnt win any more states that he won last time and theyve got grievances here in flint they had a lead in water problem but also theyve got a 2nd outbreak of the coronavirus thats turned out to be pretty bad their Governor Gretchen Whitmer is a democrat and she has cracked down hard donald trump doesnt like that and he has made her foil of his so michigan is very much divided 13 militia members were arrested trying to kidnap her and put her on trial as they said they were going to do but now youve got biden and obama they want to they want to turn this back to a blue state the way it was years ago when they brought out Stevie Wonder to do so. 100 thank you very much. The question of law and order has been one of the central themes of the u. S. President ial Election Campaign comes after a summer of discontent and protests and regulations of Police Brutality and systematic racism and as mike hanna reports its yet another issue thats polarized opinion. In the u. S. Its been a year of living dangerously particularly for African Americans who have disproportionately borne the brunt of the coronavirus pandemic and who have been far more likely to be victims of Police Action than their white fellow citizens. The killing of george floyd just one case of brutality that galvanized protesters across the nation people of all colors banding together and to be a brillo of the black lives better movement. One candidate to embrace the movement and all it stood for. The other rejected it. Many of those who are spreading violence in our cities are supporters of an Organization Called black lives matter b. L. O. Solo its really its really hurting the black Community Taking the black president of the United States some African American conservatives who share the support in get that at the white house at the presidency but taishan wearing blue to show their support to the police and the signature red caps to show their support of the president there are people all around the country that support this president because he supports law and order its that simple and some insists that the white crowds that double trumps rallies did not show the whole picture. A lot of blacks support and want to support and will support and vote for president dollar truong but they dont want to be called a sellout by you in favor of law and order im in favor of law you follow he would be able to do more in order to have somebody who has the facts a lot of the time you want to sort of his law doesnt let had an order or justice where people get treated fairly and biden contends that the president is a source of the very violent people colts to condemn fires are burning we have a president who fanned the flames rather than fighting the flames but we must not burn we have to build this president long ago forfeited a moral leadership in this country he cant stop the violence because for years hes formatted. Biden said dollar spent is not unconditional rioting is not protested looting is not protesting setting fires is not protesting. None of this is protest its lawlessness plain and simple yes. The black lives Matter Movement has been the single most powerful invisible force during this Election Year the question only the results at the polls will answer is whether this energy is translated into effecting political as well as social change. Mike hanna aljazeera wilmington delaware. After a year of antigovernment protests in Iraq Security forces have cleared to higher square in baghdad or just as had been camping out there while demanding sweeping reforms of archies arrested 2 dozen people during the clear out so out of all 10 reports from the iraqi capital. Underneath baghdads Freedom Monument a bulldozer delivers the final blow to iraqs besieged protest movement on saturday morning Security Forces entered liberation square for the 1st time since large scale antigovernment demonstrations began a year ago they ordered the removal of all remaining tents and searched the entire area 24 people were arrested during the operation. The Peaceful Protesters reported some gangs to the Security Forces who targeted them in the protesters and who were engaged in drugs kidnapping and stealing the commander says the operation was carried out in cooperation with protesters. After the 1st anniversary on october 25th many of the Peaceful Protesters who are the majority didnt accept the behavior of the infiltrators who were hitting the Security Forces with hand grenades and petrol bombs. But some protesters feel they have been tricked they had agreed to open the roads and arrest those responsible for the violence but not to end the sit in that were not were not. So why did a little rest and from the beginning to get by just clean and peaceful people here with just one of a dignified life. Only a few dozen demonstrators had been left in the square in recent months the crowds had gradually dwindled as targeted killings arbitrary arrests attempts by parties to hijack the movement and the coronavirus pandemic took their toll none of those left had the energy or will to resist they had spent months calling for an end to corruption unemployment and lack of services. Many people but there has been no change. We didnt get any solution for our homeland so we decided to remove our tents its better than losing more protesters.
