A state of emergency in some regions. Citizens to reduce their contact with octaves. Eurozone finance ministers are discussing how to keep the recession at bay but the divided on just how to do that one proposal is especially controversial socalled corona. Virus puts the brakes on the racing circuit good formula one beat in the financial crisis due to the coronavirus we ask for the World Champions League cost. Welcome to the program britains Prime MinisterBoris Johnson has been moved to intensive care in the London Hospital after the his coronavirus symptoms worse and johnson. Hospitalized in london since the weekend he tested positive for corona virus nearly 2 weeks ago is off it says that the Prime Minister is not on a ventilator and does not huff pneumonia he has tweeted that he was in good spirits and remained in touch with his team for mr dominic rob will be deputizing for him where necessary. Correspondent bigot mazas monitoring developments there in london biggest what is the latest on the condition of forest johnson. Had the latest information is now if you i was also on Tuesday Morning here in london we have had what do you just said that he is in intensive care but that it was more a precaution that he wasnt on a ventilator but of course this all happened quite quickly all through last week downing street had maintained that the Prime Minister is leading the fight against corona virus that hes leading the government and it came quite suddenly that he was then rushed into hospital on sunday evening and then not much later admitted into intensive care as a lot of people here in the u. K. Will be waiting anxiously for more news on their Prime Minister and that now there is news that another senior minister has gone into self i so they should who is that tell us more. Well that is michael gove who probably the most Senior Member of forest johnsons cabinet he has a lot of experience in government already serving under David Cameron so its quite worrying that its not only the Prime Minister but also other people within downing street who have had to self isolate the Health Secretary had to have had to self isolate and then the achieved medical officer so it really goes through the political establishment important though to say that Michael Goves the cabinet minister says he self isolating because a member of his family has had symptoms and he hasnt had that he has symptoms from self but obviously hes extracting himself from the machinery of government at least physically so it is another worrying development as far as the u. K. Is concerned where the Prime Ministers admission to intensive care leaves foreign secretary dominic and rob in charge tell us a bit more about him and the role he will now have to play. Well yes hes stepping in because for us johns not the raymond conned the government hes somebody who is a fellow brick city he doesnt have a lot of ministerial experience he came to be known because he was fighting alongside Boris Johnson for the braggs of course but like a lot of other cabinet ministers hasnt really been in government for a very long time and so there are concerns as to how functioning there the cabinet is at this crucial moment and even some of the own conservative m. P. s has said that for example when it comes to National Security there needs to be more clarity so at the moment the government is clearly handicapped here in the u. K. Our correspondent think of mars in london this thank you. As the number of new corona virus infections in japan continues to grow japanese Prime Minister shinzo avi declared a state of emergency to stop the spread of the virus the state of emergency was enacted for tokyo and 6 other perfect which account for about 44 percent of japans population measures gives these more power to order citizens to stay at home and close businesses that will last for one months the japanese government also adopted the countrys largest ever economic stimulus package worth more than 900000000000. 00. So what does the state of emergency mean in concrete terms the question we asked correspondent. In tokyo. It means that the governors have the authority to call on people to stay home and hopelessness is too close. And they dont care they cant give any penalties and its not like a european style look though so to speak so people are so free to move its still basically loyalists a very strong appeal and. If you compared to europe the situation here is very different much less restrictive its much more like a regular life and im hoping that with the state her majesty this. Sense of crisis so to speak will change and it affects the 2 main regions in japan and affects tokyo and the greater talking area with 35000000 people and also the great to also kyoto area actually for a while over a month so i have to ask their reporting from tokyo nah lets get you up to speed with the latest developments related to global corona virus pandemic china has reported no new dest from the corona virus over the past 24 hours and 32 new cases that come from reported were people who returned from overseas as israel has announced a complete lockdown over the upcoming holiday and germany the number of confirmed corona virus infections has passed 100000 its the 4th highest caseload in the world the global death toll from covert 19 has now passed 75000 with over 1300000 infections since the pandemic began. Finance ministers will need today for Coronavirus Crisis talks as the bloc tries to stave off a looming recession work to finalize a rescue plan for countries worst hit by the virus but there are deep divisions about whats the best way to cushion the ever pull economic blow from the outbreak. Think outside of the box that is what Council President michelle told euro zone finance ministers this appears to be the result 3 potential measures to breathe life into europes a virus hit economy. First the e. U. Adapts its bailout fund with a firepower of 410000000000. 00 europes debt pot safe to greece during the financial crisis secondly an extra 200000000000. 00 euros in loans for small and Medium Sized Companies from the European Investment bank. And finally a short time work steam suggested by the e. U. Commission worth 100000000000 euros it would encourage companies to cut workers hours not their jobs hard hit nations such as spain and italy welcome the idea but they say they need more socalled corona bonds a new type of public debt instrument backed by the euro zone so far germany austria finland and the netherlands strongly oppose the idea but Financial Experts going to involve tells me the positions on mutual is debt have been softening so this should not be seen as a backdoor entrance for a fiscal union because if it is status as a good would be not acceptable to the north of iraq i mean the north of europe does not want a Permanent Transfer union to be created so it needs to be in a sense temporary and targeted to the coronavirus cost but if that is achieved i think dead joint debt issuance should be feasible french finance minister lemaire already floated the idea for a common fund and dutch Prime Minister who to also has a plan one offering grants to those in need rather than a no. Plenty of material for an outside the box solution whatever is agreed by the finance ministers goes to your leaders for another Video Conference later in the month im now joined by fabio demasi hes a member of the German Parliament the bonder stocco and with the socialist left party mr tomasky you finance ministers want to reach an agreement on a coronavirus rescue package but without corona bonds whats your and your partys you on this well we certainly need crossbones because we need financial super power and of to combat the crisis because Everything Else will make the crisis obviously more expensive because markets will start bet against countries like italy everywhere in the world its like that local tree can go bankrupt in its own currency because the central Bank Guarantees those that currency only in the euro zone we have a different set up where it is not clear whether italy for example would run out of euros so we need to stop that bet against italy and other countries otherwise the crisis will become more expensive than needed but germany is especially opposed to a pooling public borrowing but you say the German Government is risky a new financial crisis with this answer is you can you explain. Exactly because if markets start to bet against countries like italy then Interest Rates will rise or get to leo and other countries such as spain on the markets and then in the end we will see again large hail all programs which do also pay all of them the banks and other shareholders and this will also be more expensive for taxpayers if indeed we stop Interest Rates from rising for those countries then also those loans can be quite meekly service with future growth rates and then we will not see such an escalation of the crisis secondly i think there is a very easy technical solution to the problem if the European Investment bank which for example the soup of corona on and then the e. C. B. Would buy that bond which is perfectly in line with the current you treaties because the e. C. B. Can look directly fine its a government but it can finalize a public bank such as the b. Then it will be no risk at all ringback because the e. C. B. Can simply never own all of your rules and so there would be no risk to germany as well well all this technical stuff aside somebody will end up paying for this who will end up paying for this. Well if we do not invest enough to. Introduce our economies then we will all pay a large price its very simple no the economy has been put on a halt and we just bought time with all that to prepare for example our Health Care Systems to to have enough beds for 4 sick patients but if we do not undertake those investments not and we need for of the cutting to the crisis then we can not reduce the economy so it will be in the long run more expensive because if you look strong corporations we will destroy jobs so in the end if you can central bank. Guarantee those investments then we will see growth picking up again and we can then service those loans in the future so i think that this would be the cheapest solution actually the years old which German Government proposes are tied to a stair or 2 measures which in the end will again cost cutbacks the Public Services and weve seen in the last year in italy 15 percent of all hospitals been closed since the last euro crisis and now we all pay the price at. The German Left Party thank you very much thank you for having me. On germanys Infectious Disease institute says its too early to tell if theres been an easing off a new cases of covert 19 the illness caused by the corona virus the number of new infections rose again after dropping for 4 Straight Days the total now stands around 100000. 00 social distancing rules appear to be working on lock downs have also weakened support systems for some of germanys most vulnerable. He took over less he would hardly have a chance of surviving the coronavirus hes nearly 80 in tests and many cancer operations the last one severely reduced his lung capacity yaba long time scale you know no one is not scared by me but in my case i have a good reason why because my lungs are damaged i dont have the stamina that healthy lungs have to be able to fight the infection. Again. For 2 years he has been regularly seeing a physiotherapist now theyre closed because of the coronavirus but doing his exercises keeps him alive then the image right out to the knee if i dont keep training the side effects of the lung operations will get worse or really i just wont be able to catch my breath and my record im frightened of. The pensioner lives alone and has no family that is why the club sees a member off are so important to him but now all Club Activities have stopped. The city is changing playgrounds are closed people are keeping their distance. Just like us when we meet up with peter coverlet ski again now he rarely leaves his house on top of that his apartment complex hasnt had any heating all hot water for 5 days now the heating system is broken in spare parts a hard to get these days he tells us on the phone. Well its definitely aggravating but theres nothing i can do about it i called them up and they just said which trying were trying. Hes feeling the effects of having stopped to speak with r. P. His joints and chest are starting to hurt im going to be on the list locked up in the house i dont like going outside because the virus is flying around everywhere. One of his friends from the local Gardening Club bring some groceries other friends have all that putting hot meals in front of a store. We got very support i would be helpers i know there are a charity use that would bring me food and help our boy but i need more than that. I need a little bit of attention and i get that from friends who bring me something to eat and talk to me. But ive been guilty of. Having conversations from time to time as what helps put a couple esky get through these hard times even if they can only take place from a small can. Better stay safe by. As demand on Germanys Health care system grows the countrys Ethics Council called on politicians to not lose sight of the wider effects of coronavirus on society this includes not only the millions of people currently in semi lockdown but also those whose medical operations are currently being postponed Council Chairman peter dabo also warned that rules barring visitors means sick people will die alone violating the norms of humanity. Now joined by peter docs chairman of the german Ethics Council is about what you say the way politicians are communicating about ending the lockdown leaves room for improvement what should they be doing better. Well actually things 1st for having me. I think politician politicians should encourage more of the general public to bring in their own ideas we need a wide range of activities of ideas of fantasy in order to try to cope with this catastrophe and therefore i think now we have a or b. Or sicko no. Position of the government and they should really encourage more the general public this is an indication of more democracy of more Civil Society at the given state but you dont see the lockdown itself as an ethical do you. Well i think we have to differentiate and in our top recommendation of the german Ethics Council we did not try and merrily focused on the timeline we primarily discussed the necessity the medical necessity and the social implications of the current shutdown and if we address the challenge from these 2 dimensions i think its better to communicate with the general public because and we didnt have to date and if we do not meet the data and as we had expected it then people are disappointed and if we come if we approach from this move content driven approach then i think we. We we can expect more acceptance in the public theres another version generally we are noise against. Theres another burning ethical question or rather one of ours right now that is this one if clinics become overwhelmed with seriously ill patients doctors might have to make life and death choices weve heard about have they been properly prepared for. During the last 2 weeks we had an intensive discourse within germany ballad the criteria of this situation where we all hope that this never will take place given the counter and capacity of our intensive care units but if it will take place then we have to be prepared in german Ethics Council like some medical societies have issued their own recommendations and we had several criteria to be taken into account and this is firstly that we have to keep the trust in our state in our Health Care System and that we also have to give the doctors they. Security for them since they are acting in this awful situation and then we have the levels of the civil code we have to take into account the recommendations of the medical societies and they should also debate the. Decision making with their it team and hopefully be consulted by a local Ethics Committee and then if they decide to remove intensive care patients from the ventilation then we have if all this is taken into account they can for all its a. Good. Idea of the over lets say of sympathy thats perhaps the best sympathy of the system is it conceivable for you that there will be a hierarchy of treatment on the bridge for instance the workers like doctors or even political leaders should resign. Priority over other patients. But the 1st criterion is the criterion of medical necessity and in a society means well its also if you could change to interpret it could mean that those people privatized in the highest need all those who have the best. Expectation of success this must be the 1st criteria and other criteria then fictionally forbidden by law and if they only use then those who do so run into a good trumpeters piece of a chair of the german Ethics Council thank you very much thank you and here are some of the other headlines making news this hour Australias High Court has overturned the conviction of Cardinal George pell on charges of sexual child abuse the Senior Catholic Church figure was serving a 6 year prison time but had maintained his innocence the high court found the original jury and an Appeals Court made errors as been released from prison after serving 400. 00 days accordance of aki handed down a 23 Year Prison Sentence to the killer of investigative journalist and his fiance the couple were shot in the home and 2018 as could check was investigating organized crime a former soldier guilty to carrying out a contract killing.

To moderate seeing and Formula One Team bosses have met to discuss ways of protecting the sport from financial problems caused by the corona Virus Outbreak as a reduction of the budget cap under consideration williams became the 3rd Formula One Team to put their staff on a false leave until the end of may the teams drivers and executives have to take a 20 percent pay cut that follows similar moves from mclaren and racing point 8. 00 races of the form of the one season have already been cancelled to the pandemic. And the earlier we spoke to former formula one World Champion the book he says rescuing the season will require creativity including quite literally a change of direction i hope that they can still stage a couple of races maybe they can become a love it creates a double header we get where maybe on a saturday it goes one way and goes the other way around the racetrack. Here but the problem is not nobody knows when the 1st race is going to be held of course it helps that we can help hold races without spectators is that will allow some races to happen sooner because that will allow us to like the limitations of not having more than 100 people in one place or some like that races can still be held so thats a little advantage apart from that the Biggest Issue at the moment is the financial situation for some of the smaller teams because the f one circus needs all teams to participate if 2 or 3 smaller teams drop out then its not really a great sport anymore is not enough teams competing and not enough teams in the grid so that is the main focus at the moment to help the smaller teams financially. Speaking that easter is coming this weekend people around the world have got creative about celebrating under difficult circumstances in some cases that means defining new categories of system workers not subject to coronavirus lockdowns youll be placed in our we do consider both the tooth fairy and the easter bunny to be essential lucas new zealanders obviously take their easter seriously so did the swiss where many of this years batch of chocolate bunnies are dressed in protective masks that way they stay safe on their way to their customers mouths. This may look like a medical laboratory but its an italian chocolate egg factory the owner has rolled with a new challenges of distributing eggs during the Coronavirus Crisis. Within the city of new. Since we couldnt sell them in stores we shipped them out there were more orders than ever before. In greece dr bunnies can even bring candy medical equipment their diagnoses are not considered reliable though. In case people eat too much of the sweet stuff just remember ardern has allowed the tooth fairy to continue its rounds as well.
