German chancellor Angela Merkel as she asks the public for patients saying restrictions on public life in this country will continue for at least 3 more weeks. The next bicester thanks for joining us as the corona virus continues to spread around the globe u. S. President donald trump says he is considering sealing off the state of new york and parts of neighboring states where more than half of the countrys 116000 confirmed infections have been reported and almost half of its deaths some people would like to see your. Son or your futures these maybe one or 2 was the place. Hard to get is a good forward thinking about right. We might have to do it but theres a possible. Sometimes it is a. Short term wonder youre. Absolutely sure she should get out of. You know id rather not do it for more on what President Trump meant and can do we go live to journalist james ronnell in new york james what would an forcible quarantine for new york parts of new jersey in connecticut actually look like. Thats the question because they look at President Trump down how some powers at the National Level well spread out across the United States and that a lot of power resting without the governor of the say i want to go but the new york city although it is not a local thought is across the area to all hot spots in the United States new york 52000 kate can already out of numbers also in connecticut and another hot spot the cross the United States what trump might be considering imposing its own kind of travel bans that if people want to move between one state and another he did make reference the large numbers of new yorkers elsewhere he mentioned florida also a lot the people have left town already gone to their home out on long island for example or in connecticut and what are they do large number of cases confirmed the new york if people are leaving and going to different parts the country whats going on with them coated 19 of course in the areas. And thats spreading and starting a new outbreak elsewhere in the country. And this appears to be a bit of a u. Turn for President Trump our viewers know i said what he calls the chinese virus at one point was a hoax how is this announcement of a possible quarantine likely to be perceived by the public. Well i mean the 1st thing that you think when you hear that the area you live its going to be tough to acquire and the person that goes through your mind maybe i need to get out now some people are predicting that even though trumpet mention this im not actually come through on any old its means that people are going to start leaving the city in greater numbers than they already have and you know the reason for doing this the quite all the people here are the 30 under the thumb thing of a ghost town. Large numbers of people are leaving the body the streets the relatively empty every 20 minutes of the industry alone i hear an ambulance going all right weve got 500 deaths so were hearing that there arent enough ventilate that theres a reason and a protective equipment the doctors the hospitals are already over over threats one image would have been circulating which is really striking new york at its root generated truck parked at the back of hospitals what are they there for then because the hospital tonight manager think they dont have enough faith in the more dramatic scenes in new york a journalist james ryan all thank you for that Health Experts say the u. S. Needs to do more testing to reveal the true extent of the outbreak to help achieve the countrys food and Drug Administration has approved a new rapid result test manufacturer Abbott Laboratories says it can detect the corona virus in about 5 minutes and its so small toaster that it can be used in almost any Health Care Setting the firm says it plans to supply 50000 tests a day starting on april the 1st im joined now by dr eric fake holding an at the d. M. V. Ologist and Health Economist at the harvard Chance School of Public Health thank you for joining us doctor is this test for real it almost sounds too good to be true. Its definitely real and these are the technology has a bolt a lot in the last few years to make this possible and im still waiting for it to see some of the accuracy measures because i think those still have to be Peer Reviewed and published but any test right now is much better than the one we have right now which takes almost a whole day turnaround and is only 30 to 50 percent accurate so this test it is on a rapid scale can immediately tell people you need to be quarantined or not he is would be infinitely better and faster in terms of helping us contain this fire so what we have now. Ok what id like to ask about President Trump because he had 1st was saying this wasnt really a problem then suddenly he began to take stronger measures under criticism most recently of the 2 trillion dollar bailout which came from the senate and then telling General Motors to make a ventilator so thats all good but has a government waited too long in the u. S. Yeah its. Really him calling or hoax or just corona flu and saying that you know its just the flu and you can still go to work with it was just it absolute the wrong thing it was the most people this is the 1st time in which misinformation came from the top and it wasnt just a subtly mis information but actually cause it sounds alive you know this virus previously had a doubling time of 6 days which means you know missing 3 weeks. You know 200 cases becomes or becomes 806 you know cases you know within just a few weeks we present really messed 10 x. Or 50 x. A number of cases and illnesses that we could have prevented and we moved faster and this is failure of Political Leadership in the worst extreme so and now we have. This pandemic on our hands and its so busy out there full of many governments who fail to react you are talking to many governments and being involved how is the world overall dealing with covert 19 in country can countries fix it alone yeah so in terms of vaccine production that seems will be the ultimate solution for its a vaccine unfortunately is still about one year to 18 months away maybe we can find drugs that will work much sooner within 5 to 6 months. Rambo but all these kind of things take International Cooperation and in terms of supplies actually juries are actually this number one source for regions to conduct Laboratory Tests in which we have a global short issuance and all the supply chains for masts in rental leaders all these things report Global Supply chains in this is why world has to come together not get caught up in trade disputes in tariffs this is the time to for us to come together as a human race to create a Manhattan Project to solve this epidemic if it works its a global problem requiring a global answer than dr eric fadal doing epidemiologists and Health Economists at the harvard chance cool Public Health thank you for that and heres a look now at more of the latest developments in the corona virus pandemic italys death toll from covert 19 has shot past 10889 in new reported deaths the 2nd highest daily tally worldwide and more than 30000 people have now died from the virus with the global number of infections exceeding 650000 spain is to halt all nonessential Economic Activity for 2 weeks in an attempt to curb the spread of the virus the chinese city of new hand has partially reopened after more than 2 months of almost total isolation people are now allowed to return but no one is yet allowed to leave and here in germany chancellor Angela Merkel has called on citizens to remain patient and help to contain the spread of the virus more than 5400 people have died from the disease in germany with more than 50000 confirmed infections and the Chancellors Office confirmed that restrictions will have to stay in place for at least 3 more weeks those include the closure of nonessential shops and a ban on more than 2 people meeting together in public.

Police say there were 350 Police Officers enforcing the rules on saturday and most people complied with the regulations. That being said were already noticing the topic is becoming. Beginning to see the 1st acts of civil disobedience and resistance offices where yesterday. The public who claim to be infected. These remain isolated incidents. Continue to understanding and act responsibly. Issued more than 4130 infringement notices on friday evening mostly due to members of the public floating the new laws that have been put in place to control the outbreak experts are warning against relaxing these regulations. This is definitely not the time to be discussing something of that nature. Right now where we experienced the 1st wave of infection it would be ludicrous to question these measures. Put in place and which results. Meanwhile the German Military flew 6 critically ill patients from. The western city of. The patients were quickly transferred from the military flying emergency room for treatment in a civilian yaar. World class Health Systems like those in europe are struggling to cope with the coronavirus pandemic poorer nations with even a weaker infrastructure know they could be hit hard next and probably much harder thats why despite relatively low numbers of reported cases so far india has put its 1300000000 people into lockdown the situation has forced those used to working with little to make do with even less. Lockdown and social distancing dont appear to be making much of a difference to life at Delhi Central market except that masks are on sale fruit and vegetable sellers have to provide for the citys 20000000. 00 residents.

Central delhi is nearly empty india has good reason to fear corona virus a densely populated country with a Poor Health System makes an outbreak too terrifying to contemplate the police are taking the lockdown seriously videos on social media are said to show how theyre responding to those without a reason to be out hunger is also a problem improvised soup kitchens have sprung up 90 percent of workers are day laborers and are now out of a job rajkumar drives a rickshaw but not for the next few weeks. I dont even have money for tea i couldnt survive without a place like this you get food here in a big city like delhi no were not soft to others. That. This Aid Organization relies on donations. The government has pledged support for 800000000 indians about half the population how that might work remains unclear. With hardly getting any food prices of almost doubled and the money the government has promised hasnt arrived yet. From home the head of indias chamber of commerce is working to ease supply shortages hes heard reports from around the country of trucks getting caught up in the lockdown. So interested. Then in the. Districts and then also. By the end of the day joria was able to secure a good amount of fruit the indians are crisis masters he said and theyll get through this one somehow.
