Government banning entry to 2 refugee camps as fears grow over the spread of the virus but will it be enough to protect the hundreds of thousands of people who live there and hundreds of protesters some armed to gather in the Capitol Building in the u. S. State of michigan to demand an end to coronavirus restrictions. Im sorry kelly welcome to the Program German chancellor Angela Merkel and french president of manual mock wrong have thrown their support behind to raise billions of euros to Fund Research into a vaccine for the coronavirus the e. U. Is convening a donors conference next week in a bid to raise 7500000000 euros the e. U. Commission says that the goal is to develop a vaccine treatment and. Tests that are available to all of those who need them and at an affordable price the hope is that donors will continue to provide funds in the coming months so that the effort can be scaled up the money will also help pay the costs of distributing doses of the vaccine and medical equipment. Earlier i spoke with the president of the European Commission ursula funder line and i asked her whether she agreed with the u. N. Secretary general that a vaccine should belong to the entire worlds well of course everybody should have access to this vaccine and thats reason why we got all the stakes stakeholders that are necessary so we have the w. H. O. Of the bill and the Gates Foundation the Wellcome Trust you need to global fund just to name some of course these important platforms like seppi and garvey and we are backed by many many countries in the world the g 20 i brought the initiative to the g 20 so this is necessary to really have a global approach according to judge approach in this important task we have Southern States like italy and spain calling for grants neutralize debt socalled corona bonds thats facing opposition from countries like germany and the netherlands so what will be in the fund will we see corona bonds will we see grounds. So in the whole instrument we will have certainly the right balance of loans and grants this is the process where we have to negotiate with all 27 Member States. But it is important that all agree that is the it is the way forward to take so all agree on working on the 7 year budget of the European Union plus a recovery instrument and this is a strong measure of course and i think this is democracy we have to speak about the detailing out the tailor made programs but all of our do agree that it is important to support the countries that are hardest hit by the virus and the economic consequences another issue which has come up in this Coronavirus Crisis is the issue of european fundamental principles and values and in that context i would like to ask you if youre concerned about the crisis being used here in the European Union to limit democratic rights in countries for example like hungary well many countries about 20 countries choke extraordinary measures which is in a crisis is ok because you have to be fast and you have to be able to act but they have to be proportionate they have to be time limited very clearly and they have to be under democratic scrutiny and here were looking very closely to how these measures are implemented when it comes to the European Values indeed the freedom of speech the freedom of media for example so we stand ready to intervene immediately if this is not appropriate and time limited but in the moment of crisis we see as i said many Member States that are using these extraordinary measures it has to be in the right sense as a trained physician when when you look at the situation that the world is facing when you look at the situation that the European Union is facing are you sometimes dismayed when you look around. This corona crisis is devastating but it shows 2 sides it shows on the one hand that there are lessons we have to learn for example i think we need a way more robust and transparent data reporting system for us and the European Union but also globally to be better prepared and to have an Early Warning system the 2nd is that we see how important is to have sound strong Healthcare Systems that can absorb shocks and that can respond to crisis is like this one and the 3rd one that i think is that what is important for the european level is that we will have to improve the system that the european level is able to buy critical medical goods like personal protective equipment like masks and gloves or ventilators buy them stockpile it and distribute it to those Member States that are needed and that was the president of the European Commission arcelor fund a lion the kenyan government has banned entry to 2 of the countrys biggest refugee camps because of concerns about the coronavirus aid workers say that it would be a catastrophe if the disease took just mcduck reports.

A concern it could buy you and its the u. N. Refugee agency who just called for emergency funding to help displaced people though theyve been no confirmed cases of the virus here yet the existing conditions with its spread half of you are did we all live very close to each other up to 30 people live in one camp section this includes children of the lead people with diabetes and high Blood Pressure that could become a big problem a tragedy. That. Many of the refugees seem more concerned the ball of their livelihoods than the virus itself. But what have. You just had the beginning there are so many businesses how close are you i run a small shop. Owners have been affected its really hard for us to make ends meet that you know were not making any money. But all the whole.
