showing up has opened a new hospital built in just 10 days to treat people infected with that new strain of the coronavirus of the hospital is in will haunt the city of 11000000 where they believe the virus originated before it began spreading around the world a hospital was treated to a 1000 patients at a time in china says the corona virus as now killed more than 360 people infecting more than 17000 others. after just 10 days of construction the new hospital is operational it was designed especially for the epidemic isolation wards make up past the facility china says. it is like i did in wu han the epi center of the crime to virus outbreak a 2nd hospital with more beds is due to be finished lighted this way. right now who had his on lockdown fresh supplies of being delivered by the army. thousands of rain force months have been brought in to college but the country's in urgent need of said mosques and medical equipment china is accepting donations from other countries and officials are confident the demand for supplies here will be met. don't let. us not we were able to double leopard auction capacity we have the role materials to increase production and supply. many companies are large about overproduction but we have assured them that the government will collect and store any surplus and supplies off to the epidemic among young teens you shoot with the virus still spreading demand from mosques is unlikely to fall in the short term but things could change if an effective vaccine is produced there is now a global drive to develop one get on to have its bad fruit life that the it be center of this outbreak were mind restricted. hong kong is also stepping up measures to prevent the al break from spreading correspondent charlotte shells until she is on the ground there she filed this report on the closure of more border crossings with mainland china. these additional border closures will be considered a step in the right direction by some but for many others they are still far too little too late several borders with mainland china will still remain open including hong kong busy international apples now speaking today chief executive kerry lam defended his decision saying closing the borders completely would be by his bullshit and discriminatory but both medical professionals our legislators across the political aisle on topic one medical unit has said today's additional border closures will actually change very little they've said they'll push ahead with their 5 day strike tomorrow until they boarded a plane they remember all too well the thought outbreak of 2003 in which 300 people lost their lives and they feel history piecing it so many now say oh thirty's here need to step up measures to prevent the spread of this virus. here the big table tonight is a professor from the school here in berlin he specializes in disaster relief microbiology and infection epidemiology it's good to have you on the show professor i mean we just heard right there that the chinese were able to build this hospital in just 10 days which is quite easy feat do you think as a medical professional do you think that also speaks to their ability to treat everyone he's become sick and to contain this break well this hospital this new hospital of course was meant. to sustain the ability to to contain the virus in the epicenter of the outbreak and this is just an attempt to. instead bury central offices or break and yes of course it is it is a good measure amazing it is amazing and well it is not only that it is a mobile hospital but it is a real. construction of a. for of a hospital we learning also in the west abilities that this has not been a smooth or a transparent operation by the chinese authorities in dealing with this there have been officials fired we've had doctors who are publicly complaining about what the government has or has not been doing do you think that we have lost valuable time and maybe even lives because of this what we learn from these days is that there was a certain delay in dealing with this whole problem this is rising problem of course you have to estimate by the it is a severe one on not it looked already in the very beginning it looked quite similar to was a soft starting phase now we have more information about that but then the measureless of the chinese public health authority is very strict and and robust. a bit too strict in some regards of course but but no indeed as w.h.o. stated today the outcome is quite good so that it was really restricted to z. if you sent out and to some surrounding regions in china and that you have only a few cases outside of china is also a result of these sort of what were the hopes were talking about the you know a pandemic that is bigger than the sars outbreak was you do you do you have trust in the chinese authorities now i mean it's not 2002 that's true but do you think that there is enough transparency i think yes that's enough transparency about the measurements right now and we have also a very close surveillance by w.h.o. about some measurements that china is undertaking but of course of all it's the real numbers it's just stress or another whether or not you fight cases than just count. a lot of it is also an estimate of the one notified cases in the us our own things but anyway. the. measure. in terms of keeping all containing the global threat by isis virus we did china has complained that it's being isolated in the world the u.s. says that it's not going to let the chinese come into the country right now we've got other countries who are following suit i mean it sounds diplomatically harsh but as a medical professional do you think that's the right thing to do now well in terms of globalization it's all of us difficult to contain a virus just by his use measures of shutting down and traffic and so on but. of course it's helped to prolong the time where you can prepare as a counter measures in the diff in the different countries that we are now affected but. indeed it is perhaps a little bit overdone by by some governments and you really have to be. calm about current situation so if you have a you have a new sauce like corona virus outbreak it is because the symptoms not supposed to be as solid walls so that's the threat is a bit foster but indeed she is the impact on on the case fatality rate and anything else has to be compared also with other infectious diseases for example in friends if you look at the season and friends death toll. is a lot it's much higher professor to minorities we appreciate your insights tonight thank you very much thank you. and here's some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world in the united states senate closing arguments have

like really prophesied to be up and ready. the question. is whether we agree a trading relationship with the e.u. comparable to canada's or more like australians. but australia's train deal with the e.u. is a work in progress so technically doesn't that mean no deal is back on the table or up or tension michelle take on london's approach was decidedly less rosy i don't think i'm sure that's why

opportunity for change after corruption allegations against the former president's daughter and a billionaire you see right there isabel santos is accused of stealing hundreds of millions in public funds while heading the state run oil company in angola the allegations were published by a team of investigative journalist dos santos insists that she's the target of a smear campaign w.'s adrian krishi said down with ngo was president and he started by asking about rumors that those santos is negotiating a deal to pay back part of the money that she allegedly stole from a source from the. most of the information is unfounded. we would like to make clear that there are no negotiations. over. and there will be no negotiations. there was an opportunity to do so. the very people who were involved in lots of corruption benefited from a 6 month period of grace to return our suits they took illegally out of the country. those who have used that chance would not be responsible for any consequences that may result. from now the documents that were leaked were quite clear do you want to see her behind bars certainly from the preferred not to answer that it's a judicial matter and i'm not a judge of any of the documents indicate that some of the deals happened with the knowledge that sometimes on the orders of the former president for example presidential decrees to give under-valued lends to isabelle's companies why don't you go after the former president you must know what legislation what do you mean by that. could go to the former president for at least 5 years after they finished that. but would you consider going after him after that. it's the justice system not politicians in that indicts people. it's the justice system that investigates possible crime is. the mission of politicians is to design policies ensuring that the justice system can be done. within its competence is. the. president doesn't send people to cool it open i wouldn't even have time for that there are many cases in the country in. a position of representatives that basically saying the justice system is not as independent as you are saying that it is very well controlled by the government was a response to that. that may have been the case in the past that it's not today. today they have the absolute liberty to want it. that's the reason why there are so many trials he was here but if you particularly related to corruption. of course now you served as the secretary general of the m.p.l. as a defense minister as well you knew the former president very well worked under him for a very long time why didn't you bring all these criticism up during that time. now . that i've worked under president. bush. we all did but if. he stayed in power for almost 40 years. no one can say he or she was not part of the system. but we were all part of the system. against those who are in a better position to correct what is wrong. and improve what is good in your attics that well those who know the system from with it is that will prevent and then you must have seen that as a very corrupt system because this is what the documents now show us and that's what even though investigations of these are meant the profile that has shifted along with this is that it is precisely because i've seen these high levels of corruption in the large staff because i think that the situation should not continue. that we are fighting what we have seen for decades but that akil creeps along with the back of that they force it on all it is. comfortable for us to leave things as they were before my age would not be correct said he a corporate orange put them in the one that has started the course we've now got a chance for change a woman and this is the right time to do it when we know it demands a lot of courage and we face some resistance we would rather fight that resistance but i don't leave things as they would be full bad move if that was the president of angola
