Nothing really changed during the 1st days between you look at it now as you can see that the use of public transport for example is down 90 percent and this is a strong sign that our older citizens more way is the importance of the issue now. We begin today with another bleak record the United States the United Kingdom and spain never called that their worst days yet since the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic the spiralling death rate theyre adding to the 10s of thousands of people who have already lost their lives in new york more than 560 people died since thursday prosperous nations like the United States and countries in europe hardest hit by the break there are more than a 1000000 confirmed cases now a number probably representing only a small proportion of total infections and while testing is problematic in countries mentioned its almost nonexistent in countries hit hard by conflict such as syria libya and yemen so today a warning from the secretary general of the United Nations the worst is yet to come the covered 900 storm is now coming to all the see theres of conflicts the virus as shown all swifties can move across borders devastated countries and up and lives the worst is yet to come and so we need to do Everything Possible to find the peace and unity old world so desperately needs to battle 19 we must mobilize every ounce of energy to defeat it. 562 people have died from covert 19 within the space of 24 hours in new york city with nearly 3000 this the city now accounts for nearly half of all virus related fatalities in the country with hospitals facing critical shortages of medical equipment Governor Andrew Cuomo has issued an executive order to seize critically needed supplies across the state and bring them to where theyre needed most. New york city is struggling as a crap was with skyrocketing infections and a severely Strained Health care system friday mocked its single deadliest day yet in its back to with coronavirus. New yorkers in crisis helping new york and then pick up the camp and then go to the next place as this rolls across the country it comes a day after government. That the city are only had enough ventilators to get through the next 6 days. With supplies already scarce it raises new concerns about how well the state is equips to combat coronavirus. Inside this brooklyn funeral home its clear theyre struggling to meet surging demand. Usually equipped to handle up to 60 cases at a time they dealing with more than 3 times that amount and counting maybe to got make you know me and figure out a way that we could accommodate families in a timely manner in a more dignified way amid the deepening crisis the federal government is yet to formalize any orders. Well i think were going to be coming out with new regulations on the 50 people want to abide by and frankly i dont think it will be mandatory because some people dont want to do that with little direction from the white house states like new york left with no choice but to continue taking matters into their on hands. Lets stay in the United States and bring in the president of the National Organization for women tony van pelt while many of the headlines from the u. S. Have focused understandably on the spread of coverage 19 some states are using a pandemic as a reason to deny access to abortion rights van pelt how are the states doing that. Well theyre abusing their governmental powers and they are in forcing trying to enforce governmental bans on abortion calling abortion Unnecessary Health care for women which is of course not correct. And what are the groups like yourselves doing to combat this particular trip. Well what were doing is number one we are going to is seeing to. Were organizing legally and have groups of attorneys that are fighting back against these bans calling for injunctions and weve been pretty much successful on that except for to texas right now and were still fighting back on that alabama has become the latest state and were putting a group of attorneys together. To fight back in the courts and what were seeing though is that in the streets that people following trumps lead are protesting in front of these clinics and providing very difficult situation for the women that are coming to the clinics to access their their care and their abortions is there the danger now but women seeking abortions will have to cross state lines to take these matters into their own hands to try and find a solution. Now there is some women are really being placed with an undue burden and they have to travel very far and then when they get there. They run into these protestors who are spitting and coughing on them trying to shame them telling them that theyll get the virus if they get an abortion were really dealing with people that are scientifically ignorant on a number of levels another problem for the clinics themselves is that. They are theyre short staffed they have. Providers and support staff that has to maybe stay at home for child care more maybe theyre ill themselves and just we want to have all of the. Constitutional bans all of these do burdens lifted another problem that were having is with the stimulus money thats coming out that they have put bans on any of that money going to portion providers or clinics that are providing health care for women. Leaving that aside for one moment and looking inside the American Home how is the corona Virus Outbreak affecting women in particular on the hun front one of the problems is 2 the. Violence in the home so women and Domestic Violence in the home many women are suffering from that greater scale than they had before there is limited access. To health as is happening for everybody and child care the coronavirus itself is really placing an undue burden on women much more than it is when men because of the for services that they perform so many of the women in the home and sent to the home are Emergency Care givers. I just talked to one of my Staff Members i have to be honest with you shes really really very upset she has a 10 year old child who just had had a seizure in her home yesterday and she couldnt get any Emergency Care to take him to the hospital and they told her dont bring him to the hospital because they make contact iris while they were there and she just didnt know what to do should just hysterical she tried to get a primary care doctor on the phone and she couldnt do that so its really stressful for all of us who are caregivers we dont just worry about herself but we worry about everybody in our family its stressful is very much the word tony event president of the National Organization for women very much appreciate your time thank you so much for having me. Turkish president richard type. Has ordered a possible curfew for people out of the ides of 20 and a bit to slow the spread of the outbreak hes also talking dozens of city borders and requiring people to win mosques in public spaces the measure is come as turkey sees a shop jump in the infections and deaths from coated 19 the comfort already has occurred if you can place for the chronically ill and those older than 65 people who have their own particular needs. Home delivery turkish style. For many istanbul residents this is not a novel way of doing their shopping but with the corona virus epidemic worsening its now become a lifeline for the citys elderly but there are. No cool shop keepers have quickly adapted it as other cities that we have started to Delivery Service so they call us and we help them i mean really care if they want something from the shop or the market we take it to their homes because they are our elders. The curfew for citizens older than 65 was among the 1st measures taken by the turkish government in their battle against the epidemic. In leadership that was local authorities have been told to be strict. To enforce the rules and send people home. At 1st however many pension is wouldnt listen to an arson from these general municipality tells me beat us a lot of 1000000000 its not easy by sharjah nothing really changed during the 1st days but when you look at it now you can see that the use of public transport for example is down 90 percent and this is a strong sign that our older citizens are more aware of the importance of the issue now theyre following the rules more than before. The more pension a stay at home the more work there is for municipal support teams across the city they have delivered groceries to tens of thousands of quarantined istanbul lights. But despite the early introduction of the curfew for the elderly it has proven too little in the fight against the virus more measures have been taken. Istanbuls grand designs one of the largest in the world is now closed as are schools museums sports. Clubs bars and cookies. All International Flights have been stalked and Domestic Travel severely restricted dissembles new gigantic ampoules and tea and deserted and shingle out on our sun predicts that moon measures will come into the store luke was the old out here in istanbul the population density is very high hearted so its safe to say that we will need more radical measures eventually after all is sample appears to be a hot spot at this epidemic so going on and on and watch a priest stumble. With restrictions looming stumbles patients will be tested as well is this only darity of its people. Well for more on this lets bring in iraq shes an activist and researcher based in berlin what are you hearing from people you know back in turkey about the outbreak well and the people in turkey have actually just started to hear about that because as you know the person was the case in turkey was that there are you know went on march and it had already spread to so 114 countries surrounding and surrounding turkey and also all in iran there are hundreds of course of the cases and this and this raised suspicions better there is this this is handled transparency by the government so this also the government is to be late for the profession so im for people to be. The norm now in their various hosts spread to all parts of turkey and the Testing Capacity is still not sufficient. Maybe you have heard the situation of people returning from. Saudi arabia and this people leapt on monitor. And this cause theyd be there sped up to use to all parts of turkey and there are also issues with you guys to numbers the clerics by their help there are suspicions they might not speakers of the truth because the doctors are relying on different access to their best measures for instance and they have to rely on seeking scans. And start the treatment of the patients and while the test the results of the kids are being delayed the doctors get these to the results of the post very late and also there is a high. Number of colds and negative grades of these tests and their results of this many people dying from 1000 are not counted as the cause of. The pandemic in the official figures and if thats the situation as it is now if this curve goes in the direction it sounds like it will almost inevitably will the turkish Health Care System be able to cope at that point. Well i its hard to the head of search medical association they get or they have their arms in all parts of it along 6 years of turkey and theyre all in context and medical professionals and what they report is the situation in the hospitals theyre sort of the. Units are what they call is for or to hospitals especially in crowded cities like. And the medical professions and also the Church Medical association is in waiting the heart and the state to cooperate so being in sort of guided to be guided by them the situation right there i with probably a little more in the navy and i dont. Im sure with president just wondering with president everyones on the easy relationship with journalists in mind how is this outbreak being covered in the turkish press. Well. The house minister is on t. V. Every night and he is declaring the case numbers and the causalities and they have a quality that theyre getting guidance but this is the quality is there to buy. People on the and it doesnt reading. Nearly all the years its mainly clothes microbiologists and so on the Health Care Professional associations should be included in this client prince. And this also raises questions figured in cross for into the task force because the state already declared the beginning. There they will start investigating press air for people spreading panic and you can imagine what this extent. Does for years already. Journalists have been arrested already recording on the pandemic and all were 380 people are being investigated for near social media posts and there was another important situation for instance air bags and that in freaking their contacts and some leaks the goal of the seriousness of the situation but seem to be iraqs meeting and she was saying that the numbers that they are calling up your percentage of troops in sprawling much more especially increasing now i. Mean these are the Police People of all parts of turkey and only the next day the state opening instigation on this stuff. And the next day she was forced to poor jack inspire you know as to medical michael to the beach also caused an article by medical many medical professionals starting campaigns that they are actually supporting their college. Troubling times activist and researcher. A pleasure speaking with you many things thank you. One country with a relatively low infection rates in india which is 2500 confirmed cases in a population of 1300000000 last week the country introduced a nation wide lockdown to stem the spread of the virus in a video Message Broadcast on friday Prime MinisterNarendra Modi tried to bolster morale by urging people to light candles for 9 minutes on sunday not. But for millions of day laborers in india who lost their incomes when the country wanted to lock down can the law is not going to fill their bellies they dont lose the machine just. Waiting. Sometimes for all that and. This is what every day looks like now for these daily wage workers. Social distancing boxes seem meaningless in the face of hunger. At the end of this particular. To oranges. None of these men are rich nearly from delhi they migrated to the capital from villages in neighboring states looking to earn a livelihood. Some work in small restaurants. At construction sites. Every meal depends on the days awnings but with businesses closed for indias 3 week lockdown the zoning and the meals have dried up now didnt try to go home but the bus stations were closed the police told us to stay here. But there are no medical Services Available here and were not allowed to leave we would have to call an ambulance who are supposed to let us go. Yet with food at hand these men are the lucky ones the government is so why even paul would have hundreds of shelters like this one yet the demand far outstrips the supply in addition many are physically unable to reach the send those because of the lockdown this is where Civil Society is stepping in boones an ngo that has worked on Disaster Relief during floods and earthquakes. Is now adapting to a different challenge to a disaster that cannot be seen but that is everywhere. This time fall fewer aid workers are being called in to maintain social distancing and theyre taking up tasks they have never had before relief work especially in the midst of a law down is the governments responsibility. But workers here believe there is no time to assign blame lives are at stake and not just because of the good or no iris dement Big Government was not for because they are making an effort but theres a gap we need to Work Together this is not an issue of survival this sort of i will go to her. But even as these groups work there are lists lead to provide protection and food to the citys poorest. The fight for survival promises to be a long one crowding together shelter social distancing is a luxury these men cannot afford. But for now at least to eat. A huge Foreign Ministers have held a Video Conference to discuss the repatriation of a huge citizen stranded overseas 600000 citizens got stuck around the world when the pandemic it all of those at least 350000 have already been flown back on one private and facilitated flights the rest are still waiting the e. U. Has been helping to pay and coordinate flights germany says it has already repatriated nearly 200000 people in an operation thats cost an estimated 50000000. 00 euros is one example from argentina. One of hundreds of cities under lockdown. Many germans are stranded unable to return home. Which found refuge with an argentinean who let him sleep on her couch in her apartment but if. Id like to return to germany i want to be with my family and get back to a country that is economically and politically stable in a crisis like this its. He cant afford the remaining flights so franco hopes to return home on germanys Emergency Repatriation Program but thats not an option for the many germans in their campers at the foot of the n. D. S. They arent allowed to travel yet some are glad to stay here anyway at least for now. When things started getting serious 1st thought was lets stay here because we felt there was more risk of being infected on the plane or at the airport in germany than here in argentina. Im sure im sure. Another german couple was able to shelter in a police hut so they wouldnt have to stay in their jeep in the blazing heat theyre also stranded or. We can just stay in the car and we can just leave it here if we dont get it out in time wed probably be fined or it will be confiscated. To see if in the meantime they help with cooking. Infections. Around the world we asked some of the ws network of correspondents to give us an insight into how the pandemic is changing. Deserted streets empty restaurants closed shops in the u. S. Capitol to stop the spread of the virus more and more states are ordering their residents to stay at home but not everyone complies if you days ago police in neighboring mary lent interrupted a Church Service where 50 people gather it and none of them were social distancing the oh so it is can only help that such attitudes will change soon as people understand whats at stake staying at home is challenging for everybody these days but now imagine staying at home if you live in a shack you know one room shack with a lot of people and a very crowded space this is the reality for millions of South Africans and although the lockdown rules of the 3 week locked on the extremely strict many people are simply not able to comply when you talk to karnes you dont get the sense that people are really panicking and i certainly hasnt been the kind of runs one told a pastor weve seen in these countries you can even still find mosques like these and so pharmacies even though they are now selling for about 3 times the prices one place that is on this empty square is the hotel i mean now home to about 100. 00 ukrainians in fact which police sure about 50 of them are now reported to have left illegally and now face fines of up to 500. 00 euros.
