Korea. Also coming up the coronavirus the lethal visitor in spains Nursing Homes and the elderly are dying their families asking how could it happen here. Its gotten out of hand this cannot continue like this we consciously let the entity die in a nursing home or in their houses and they dont even send an ambulance for them. To our viewers on p. B. S. In the United States and all around the world welcome but we begin the day with data and death today people in the United States got their 1st look at the models which local state and National Governments are using to map out a course in the coronavirus pandemic charts and graphs covered with data points each point representing thousands who have already died and tens of thousands who will most likely die according to the scientists who brief the u. S. President every day even if all social distancing guidelines are abated by everyone the outbreak will still most likely claim 200000 lives in america among all advanced countries the u. S. Is on the worst trajectory in this pandemic and the worst of the worst is new york city the death toll there is near 1000 over the weekend there was a death from the virus every 12 minutes here is new York Governor Andrew Cuomo the number of cases still going up were all in search of the apex in the other side of the mountain but we are still headed up headed up the mountain a number of people tested last night was a near record amount we tested over 800000 people with testing more people than any state in the country and are very proud of that more per capita than china and south korea. Its the 1st time that the governors been able to say that to talk about the situation in new york and in the u. S. Im joined now by journalist the sun she is in manhattan tonight abbie its good to have you back on the date give me an idea of how new york city is coping with everything tonight. Right you heard the numbers there from the governor certainly staggering the number of cases the number of death new york state lost 332 people in the last 24 hours alone a Staggering Number that would make headlines for leaks and weeks if this was another situation but this is the daily reality now now in terms of that fear and the concern that people have as are seeing these numbers rise and rise in the coming days and weeks which is what they expected theyre worried about going outside but from people dont have a choice they may not have a home to hunker down and or theyre considered essential workers and they do have to walk out that front door to go to work so plenty of people concerned about that theres also concerns about jobs millions of americans in recent weeks have lost their jobs a Record Number applying for Unemployment Insurance so we dont know when this is going to end thats when the governor has repeatedly said theres no end in sight and certainly that also adding to the uncertainty and the fear here there is the fear of being exposed to the virus that its also more the of discussion it has led to workers going on strike at amazon in new york i want you to take a listen to what a worker at amazon said earlier today we dont have to go by that depth verifies that its got this yeah you dont like you go again down like we started this it was good it is just about little by c. D. C. Is dead but because it is easy to get them also. They say you know the company says one thing and does another these delivery people specially with amazon they have never been as essential as they are right now certainly they must have tremendous leverage with management at the moment. Thats the big right most of us are at home and there are people placing orders for essential items and it is delivery people like those working at amazon who are bringing those items to us and unfortunately what theyre saying is proper measures are not being put into place to take care of them to protect them this goes also for the people working in the Amazon Warehouses on monday in Staten Island where there is an Amazon Warehouse workers staged a walkout saying that the facility hadnt been properly cleaned and measures were being taken to protect them perhaps with regard to math and gloves and other supplies such as that so theres certainly a concern there whole foods which is a massive grocery chain here also owned by amazon theyre also the people that we are relying on right now to stock the shelves to be the cashiers so that were able to pay for the items that we need these men and women are saying theyre not properly being protected and theyre also planning to stage a lockout one of the organizers there has actually been fired and mayor bill de blasio said that if this has anything to do with the fact that he was organizing this call this call to alarm to say that there is an issue here that there will be an investigation now and measures would be taken there bret but again essential workers delivery people people working in Grocery Stores they certainly need the protections and theyre demanding it now and you talk about protection that the centers for Disease Control is reconsidering its stance on cease mask of mean they may be they may tell americans that they should wear face masks when they go outside have you noticed a difference in new york city are people outside all day wearing these face mask more. Certainly during a flu season in recent years there have been people that wear masks to protect themselves or others if theyre ill i have noticed a gross increase in that in the recent days and weeks but thats of course a voluntary measure that as of right now is recommending that if youre healthy and not in a High Risk Group you do not need to be wearing a mask its not mandatory and theres of course concerns with putting down such a mandate if they you must wear it theres already a shortage of medical math and 95 match for doctors and nurses so why does it mean when you tell new york city a city of more than 8000000 people that all of you need to be equipped with these masks there is a concern there the other concern with making such a mandatory decree is will that then give people a false sense of security that they are rare in this mask and perhaps they wont follow the physical distancing the social distancing measures that have been basically told to us repeatedly over the recent weeks. In new york city is expected in 3 weeks thats what the governor is saying what has to happen between now and then to avoid a total collapse of the Health Care Infrastructure in new york city. Right you know that some of the finest hospitals in this country are here in new york city but right now given this outbreak given this disease that doesnt seem to be enough right now what cuomo a fan he has been saying originally 21. 00 days now he thinks 14. 00 to 30. 00 days is when we are going to hit that apex depending on how the situation goes in the coming days and his plan right now is to plan for the worst Case Scenario so that that apac and what hes telling new yorkers if you have to do your part you need to stay at home to help flatten this curve as much as possible so we have a minimal number of patients entering the hospital theyre already strained theyre already short on supplies people are already dying in high numbers so theres certainly a concern there and in terms of other measures that the governor is taking hes talked about Field Hospitals be open you saw the u. S. S. Comfort yesterday docking in opera westside theres going to be a Field Hospital being opened in central park that new conjunction with working with the city and marigold has also announced the Tennis National center in flushing meadows in queens new york that hospital outburst which has suffered so greatly out of the epicenter of this epicenter will also be turned into a temporary hospital so measures certainly being taken to alleviate what could be a very dire situation which of course it already is to spin a terrible march and it could be a horrible thing for that we are about to begin we will see journalist being qantas and joining us tonight from manhattan abbie as always thank you for staying safe and stay healthy. I think. Donald trump will not go down in history as the only president who downplayed the coronaVirus Outbreak brazils president. Is still doing exactly that despite brazil having what americas highest number of reported coronavirus cases more than 4500 Brazils Health minister has openly contradicted the president saying people need to protect themselves through social distancing or what about on social media the platforms both in oral used to win the election they are now suddenly hostile territory not necessarily to him but to the untruths about the virus connected to him. Brazils far right president jabil sonora likes to portray himself as a man of the people. But his closeness to the people in these images has proved too much for social media platforms Facebook Instagram and twitter. Theyve now removed this video accusing both sonora of putting lives at risk by ignoring official guidelines on social distancing but also narrow is unrepentant. d this total isolation if it goes on like this in the future we will have a serious problem with the brutal amount of unemployment it will take years to resolve. With. The president elect as his aim is to protect the poor who are suffering the most those jobs are destroyed because of quarantine measures he says people need to get back to work but this stance is put him at all its not just with official advice from Health Professionals imploring people to stay at home. But also with the majority of brazil state governors a many local politicians theyre busy repurchasing venues such as the samba drive in rio turning it into a shelter for the homeless and vulnerable for the duration of the pandemic bracing for the onslaught. I think everyones appeal is stay at home the home is this one it will be the spaces that are being offered so the ideal is that they stay here and do not walk around the streets and be exposed to such a lethal virus these are huge borscht of our views i see if you dont that as a number of infections and deaths increases another big concern is how to stop the virus spreading among the citys favelas here theres often no Running Water or electricity and people are increasingly dependent on food handouts are listing this story now to brazil im joined by journalist michael fonts michael its good to have you on the day both sonorities mastery of social media appears at least for now to be history and as far as coronavirus denial goes he is pretty much the west man standing how much support does he have for his. Well look brazil situation is very similar with that with Donald TrumpsUnited States also not as he has roughly 3035 percent of the population and many of these people still support him regardless of if the government is moving in the other direction his Vice President is now coming out against paulson out of is Health Ministers coming out against them the state governors are coming out against them it looks like he is the last man standing but he still has substantial support and weve seen that these people have been doing caravans in cities around the country in recent days calling for. The poor in teens to be lifted and calling for people to get back to work and thats really the focus so he might seem crazy but its also important to stand that this is where. This is where he comes from you know he was he was elected trying to shake the system under politically correct very similar to donald trump in this sense and hes kind of hes sticking to the line. Hes sticking to the line im wondering though how significant is this revolt of state governors. Elsinore is having to deal with you know they dont want to live the shutdowns at least for now. They dont want to its extremely significant expression for a country that brazil brazil is very much a federal country its not like in the United States where states rights have a substantial importance in brazil its federal and that goes back to the well before the dictatorship of the 1960 s. And seventys so the fact that the state governors are actually standing up to the president saying no were actually going to keep our quarantine its huge at the same time were also seeing some weakening in that in the state that i mean something that ina the state governor said as of last week that he wanted the quarantine lifted this week so he obviously was getting pushed bible so a lot of their allies there from the same party and so he was feeling the pressure from above but he still had to push off a little bit more its still under quarantine at this moment we dont know how long and so everything its touch and go its day by day but obviously definitely this revolt from the state governors huge we know that the differences between the rich the poor are staggering in brazil but he says the coronavirus may kill you but so does hunger how are poor people how are they able to cope with their financial situation and this outbreak. This is a major major issue brazils one of the most unequal countries in the world super high poverty and those rates have been increasing in recent years so obviously telling people to stay home is very very difficult we had a huge measure that was just passed by the senate last night which has now approved roughly 603 ice 4 for contract workers people in the Informal Sector so this is a major support thats roughly 60 percent of minimum wage but if theres 2 people household that are in that same position that could go back at the over the minimum wage so its not you know its not the end all to be all but its going to be a huge support at this time its in you know exactly that you just mentioned the fellas brazils or these communities that kind of surround Rio De Janeiro and sao paulo these are these are hotbeds of potentially opitz of coronavirus you know coronavirus has now been diagnosed has been confirmed at least 4 different from ellis in rio and these are places where people are very close together and so these are areas that people are very very concerned about but were hoping that this moment of having the support from the government and support from each other we just saw a couple days ago that gangs were actually traveling around the civilians telling people to stay home so people their real life situation is but its also a place where you know around brazil roughly 40000000 people dont have access to water so literally in the morning you have to walk down the hill to pick up water and bring it back up just so they can cook with or wash their clothes so these are very precarious situations and those are some of the Major Concerns also played to a perfect storm for a virus that can be easily spread what plans does the brazilian government have to deal with this crew crisis medical. So brazil has a great thing going for it which is the Public Health system it was set up in 1988 its a universal Health System so everyone has access thats huge and it means that people are not going to be dying at the doorsteps of hospitals like weve seen in the United States because they dont have insurance at the same time its very easy for that system to become overloaded and its also not as his thats deaths distributed completely equally there are some areas that have a greater density of of clinics and hospitals for people than others for instance for bellas so so its both of benefit and also a and its a something thats that thats thats not looking on their side given that brazil has going for it is the fact that its obviously it was a major player in this ph i. V. Crisis of the 1990 s. Very hit very hard it was also hit hard by sica busy couple of years ago so they had some experience in that and theyve been really trying to play off of that kind of develop this theyve been trying to to to develop and produce mast and respirators as quickly as possible some state state governors have been really focusing on that to be question is is that the big push that everyone has which the same thing is happening everywhere else the United States how quickly is this virus going to spread and how quickly are the hospitals and the clinics going to get were loaded yeah yeah michael. Sonora brazil. Tonight michael thank you. Spain has europes 2nd highest death toll behind italy more than 8000 deaths and the elderly are especially at risk Nursing Homes in spain have been overwhelmed by the number of infections last week there were shocking reports of patients dying in their beds only to be discovered hours later families are even more desperate because they can no longer visit their loved ones due to the threat of the virus our correspondent john Philip Schultz has this report tonight from seville. What is happening behind these windows concerns many spaniards almost 2000 nursing home residents have died after contracting the corona virus every day more homes are affected nothing more dangerous uncle has parkinsons and lives in a nursing home in Southern Spain a while ago he learned that the 1st cases of coronavirus had been diagnosed there too since then he tells me the residents of the nursing home and their relatives have become increasingly worried. So what are they doing to do with it just because that way she. Can work has complained about terrible conditions in many homes they say theres not enough protective clothing and that hundreds of their colleagues are infected authorities are investigating reports that some workers went home after the 1st cases were identified leaving residents forgotten that bets the dramatic situation in many Nursing Homes has shocked. Here in spain the Spanish Society takes pride in its Strong Family ties and in taking well care of people possible criminal neglect and the feeling of hopelessness among family members starts to affect the city. And a lot of spaniards fear that the situation in Nursing Homes might get worse in the coming days. In the nursing home where i feel more dangerous includes the management of whats now but afaik the other relatives feel a little bit closer to their loved ones. In the past week there has been a lot of Media Attention given to germanys remarkably low death toll in the corona Virus Outbreak but this week the number of confirmed cases had 67000 and the government is warning that it is simply too early to declare or clear for the countrys Health Care System. The german city of alephs book has been badly affected by the corona virus at least 17 people recently died in a care home. And now this hospital has been forced to stop receiving new patients after various employees tested positive for this case is an example of how the crisis in this country which is one of the most affected in europe is testing the limits of its Health Care System it is often one of the most advanced in the world but the pandemic is also revealing its weaknesses there are reports of staff and equipment shortages of unnecessary bureaucracy of lacking digitalisation and also other frequent need to improvise the government and in particular the Health Minister are aware of the challenges ahead its still flick if the doctors and nurses are probably preparing for the biggest challenge in 75. We already have many infected people in germany and we also mourn many deaths. This is still the calm before the storm for. Germany has comparatively few coronavirus deaths which is partly to do with the high number of tests in the country. But this is not enough to weather the storm and thats why a package of measures has been passed to help hospitals financially reduce bureaucracy and expedite reaction times and berlin is planning to build a new hospital which could house between 501000 patients the government has asked for doctors to be brought out of retirement and for hospitals to suspend any nonurgent operations in order to free up intensive care beds germany already has more beds than many countries in europe and thats why it has been able to bring in 50 coronavirus patients from france and from italy germany sees this as European Solidarity in times of crisis but as the infection rate here continues to be too high for authorities to lift restrictions it remains a big question whether germanys own Health System will be able to pass the test. But the tokyo summer olympics have been postponed for a year but not a new law banning smoking in the japanese capital is one of the worlds last major cities where people can still white over dinner in a restaurant but not much longer. Though tokyo streets are more quiet these days its restaurants and bars still beckon after hours most welcome smokers but thats about to change a bad schedule to make the city tobacco free in time for the now postponed olympics comes into effect on wednesday Health Experts warn that smokers are likely to be more vulnerable to the coronavirus but that hasnt persuaded these patrons to quit. Of course i know that smoking increases my chances of getting the virus but i cant just stop its an indulgence. If i get the virus i get the virus theres nothing i can do about it then. Sorry. For. The impact on customers i guess fewer people will come initially theyll come as usual but if they cant smoke will gradually stop coming. Thats exactly what city authorities are hoping for with the number of corona virus infections on the rise they say people have to stop going out and socializing at bars and nightclubs. Cons in these locations fall under all 3 locations for close contact that can result in a high risk of infection. Closed spaces with bad ventilation densely packed crowds of people and close distance between people. The governor has already asked tokyos residents to stay indoors but her requests arent binding and as much of life continues as usual medical experts in japan are calling on the government to declare a state of emergency before its too late.
