President donald trump has arrived at middle Military Hospital after testing positive for coated 19 the marine one helicopter brought the president from the white house to the Walter Reed Medical Center in maryland Officials Say the transfer was a cautionary measure and trump was expected to remain at the hospital for several several days earlier his physician said he was receiving an experimental drug treatment white house has said trump is experiencing mild symptoms including a favor and fatigue but is continuing his president ial duties. Washington washington correspondent stephanie months has more for us stefan the president walked by himself to the helicopter and walked off in maryland has the white house shade any more information that supports what these images have shown us. The men of think they have a should be the twitter feeds of the president came back to life and the president himself tweeted and of course this was a retreated by many many of his administration a short video saying that let me quote i think im doing well very well but were going to make sure that things work out thats what he said in this little tiny video 15 seconds long after announcing that hes going to make his way to Walter Reed Medical Center. In a suit and without a mask as you have pointed out on his way to the helicopter to marine one on the south lawn he did wear a mask in a suit this is of course an important messaging effort by the white house and by the president to assure the American People that everything is ok that he is still in charge be not as sick as maybe the media is making him out to be and for that reason you have seen the president walking to marine one and then of course off marine one. To the walter d Reed Medical Center where he is now at the president ial suite or at the president ial office also called that way but again hes now in says the white house the best hands possible medically speaking for the night and for the next few days. In one effort and one effort only to make sure hes healthy and b. That there will be no transfer of power necessary to the Vice President by the president dont try to shift and what are you hearing about the form of treatment that mr trump is expecting to receive at that maryland hospital. I have no information about what kind of treatment he will receive there in detail or at least we dont have them yet we do expect at the latest on saturday then that a team of doctors will probably come out and hold a press conference or some kind of event to inform the public to inform the press of how they treat the president how hes doing how hes progressing. For the better all the worse so this is going to be expected however what we do know is though that the president had suffered from fertik he had a fever all day and that he was given an experimental drug regen not regular on an antibiotic which is not approved by the f. D. A. For any therapy however the president got it and this is the effort to boost the president s immune system as is 74 years old d and a. Heavy weight obese and with that a risk group stiffened simones in washington many thanks well President Trump has long been dismissive of the corona virus and the precautions his own experts have recommended he is how he has reacted to the greatest Public Health challenge indicates. From initial optimism in february looks like by april you know in theory when it gets a little warmer it miraculously goes away hope thats true to a number up to about face in march ringback. Today i am officially declaring a National Emergency u. S. President donald trump is going to extremes in his Public Attitude toward the coronavirus hes always saw a Silver Lining even as the death toll skyrocketed america will begin and shouldnt be open for business. We cannot let the cure be worse than the problem itself were not going to let the cure be worse than the problem in the start seeing some related the end of the tunnel but this is going to be a very painful. Very very painful 2 weeks that trump soon turned a medical problem into a political issue forcing the public to choose between him and the experts when government scientists recommended Wearing Masks he scoffed at the idea is over with one myself its a recommendation they recommended. But i dont see it for myself i just i just maybe ill change my mind he didnt change his mind but as the pandemic refused to go away miraculously he mused in public about rather unorthodox treatments supposing we hit somebody with a tremendous whether its ultraviolet or just very powerful light when i said supposing you brought the light inside the body you can which you can do either through the skin or. In some other way right and then i see the disinfectant it knocks it out in a minute. By june as testing ramped up along with case numbers he seemed exasperated if you dont test you dont have any cases that we stepped us that right now would have very few cases if any. And he started marking the virus making racist jokes and blaming the pandemic on chinas. Its a disease without question has more names that any disease and should i i can name. Comes lou i can do i 90 different versions of this he says with the election looming he doubled down on mocking masks even during the president ial debate i dont have i dont wear masks like him every time you see me go to misc he could be speaking 200 feet away from him he shows up with the biggest mask ive ever seen that attitude held up until the last minute at this rally in minnesota on wednesday trump threw souvenirs barehanded into a packed audience where few wore masks it remains to be seen how seriously trumps diehard supporters will now take the virus that has put their hero into quarantine and well. Lets get the scientific perspective on this associate professor of epidemiology and biostatistics at the university of opening welcome what was your reaction when you heard about the president s diagnosis well. Ill admit i was shocked but i wasnt surprised as you just played a montage of the president has disregarded the advice of his own Public Health agencies and experts particular on mass wearing and so its not terribly surprised that you might become infected given how frequently how busy a schedule is or how much of the public interacts with eli were talking about a medically based 74 year old whos in a stressful job what does this disease do to people who fit this physical and situational profile. Well yes i mean this since the early days theres been mounting evidence that both weights and age. Particular being over 6570 are really both risk factors for developing severe outcomes severe kovan 1000 disease and ultimately you know requiring hospitalization or and we know that levels of mortality are higher as well for people in those groups so there are risk factors 1st or obviously we need to see what will happen in the coming days. Hes been on the Campaign Trial tracing the president s contacts over the last few days hes going to be a big job how far do they need to go back into that fall well thats a great question so i think you know for better or worse the president is one of the most watched people in the world and i think you know in order to attend his Events People have to go through security register and so forth so i think developing a lists and following up with people will be a possible task its going to be cement doable and i think we know there are there are lots of contacts racers and states and counties that can provide assistance to that so i think its a possible task but it will obviously i will go back some some days and requires contacting reaching out to quite a large number of people but i think its a doable task. What is the trouble diagnosis teach us and teach the American People if anything about how best to deal with coded nonteaching thats a great question i think theres theres several pieces here obviously its. It tells its a very telling and important example in less than in the value of it here into science based protocols for limiting transmission maintaining met distances Wearing Masks are important. Sorry yes. No you may also think its really a yes or they also think its an example really of the bigger problem facing United States right now President Trump and disregarding his experts like over 19. And trying to downplay of severity of the virus right is. A real implications of our country as a whole and so i hope an outcome of this episode that the president from will will learn from his personal experiences and use the time in office to take more aggressive endemic response in this country realize its not going away that we really need a coordinated national response. Thank you so much thank you ok lets turn now to some of the other stories making news media says it is ready to discuss a cease fire in the separatist region of new going to which has been the scene of heavy fighting between armenian and Azerbaijani Forces many a military official said that as a bush on carried out strikes on the regions capital step on kept on friday dozens of been killed in the recent flare up in fighting.

Sure its called spectrum if you would like any information on the coronavirus or any other science topic you should really check out our talk out so you can get it wherever you go your pod cast can also finance and. Science. This is due to the news that that coming up on the program its back to school in zimbabwe but theres a variable missing from the equation some teachers havent reported for duty there on strike demanding pay or lost in education official how they plan to brady learn it was to write it sam teaches. The congolese man whos literally taking. Him into his own hands. To see wonder its have your company off to 6 months shut schools all slowly opening up again in some way but not without controversy leading teaching unions have called on their members to strike theyre angry that the government is refusing to raise salaries the standoff as if students worried about the impact on their exam results ill be talking to an official in the Education Ministry after this report. A fresh start after a 6 month School Closure at the Queen Elizabeth school for girls in harare Morning Assembly takes place like normal these times are anything but there is disinfectant on arrival and students have their temperatures taken before they can open a book the classrooms are missing one thing the teachers theyve gone on strike over wages and hygiene concerns teachers have lost. Their ranking in terms of fossil search its its actually an insult to be a teacher. With us and thing of government is one has to address the problems so that we dont have people who are coming under 2 percent every day to school yet their physical absence. Develops into these schools the strike has hampered their return to school this week is phasing in slowly starting with students who are about to graduate. Or like this class those who are busy studying for upcoming exams. Trying our best who are caught we need doing all the things we can do these and our only left with us to write and to murder is the hope of yet its oh too much although some students have had virtual classes most have had no true cheering for months the teachers strike is a threat to their futures it is something that is really hard to start school after 6 months go to school and this will mean i see it as a disadvantage because some of the teachers are now the incoming for lessons i dont know why just through come to decisions made sure that youre right some sheets in terms of region since the unions meanwhile insist that wages of around 40. 00 to 50. 00 per month are too low especially given the risks teachers taken returning to work for 2 years. In a city of government is the best lets engage in the sure that we are. Some educators are back in the classroom though not all well unions and governments do battle it is the young people who are left in the middle. Weve invited zimbabwes feminine secretary of the ministry of primary and secondary education secretary to nice and having to joins me from harare welcome to news africa secretariats have been at School Children in zimbabwe lost about half a year after learning why are you insisting on children taking crucial exams when they have not completed the syllabus. Yes currently they have not completed which is where we have to face to face lessons but during the time when they were not having face to face lets listen what is during the lockdown we had other strategies alternative strategist where we were helping our lynas to continue working on their work on the says. Lets read your lessons as well is fear of the cult more jewels that we give into this remote industry. Who also do a combination and instead but do the provisions that you are referring to cover all children do they have a for example children with disabilities children who are hard of hearing children who cannot see do they have of the poor who often dont have access to resources that they need for and im doing. It is not easy to cover everybody or little ones so what we will do is we get back to 1st of all do in our system and of we as we go back to school and there is weve discovered the gaps with plans tailor made for individual groups of children or even the individual to try and make sure that we can have with them so as we go back there will be a lot of mediation a lot of kids have a lot of strategies to compliment the face to face ok inside the groups you are talking about the most marginalised years we will look after you have another challenge secretary and that is teachers are not in the classrooms they say they simply cant afford to show up to work how are you going to complete the syllabus without the teachers. The issues around to survive being resolved whilst there is. A very quickly as soon as they come back we have no issue there. What indian children. Ive been speaking to a member of the union and i know youre confident teachers will be returning but thats not the impression that i caught because of where the negotiations are they express that its really difficult under salary they to be able to afford to carry out they were another condition they are theyre raising is the issue of whether enough provisions have been made in terms of the pandemic secretary has your government made the necessary provisions for teachers who are effectively become front line workers when they return to the job will they be terrorists will they be thermometer people what about the schools that dont have Running Water all the p. P. Is who have been given we have been trying to supplied all Public Schools p p es and we are continuing to give them both. The. Liquid so. Disinfectant. All the basic according to the words who. Will publish them cause the guidelines floorball have been provided for we do screening fest the before we talk of testing for those where we have the way that the moment and according to these members will publish them procedures but we have been given in layers and with the ministry of health 1st is to screen and then if weve discovered the need for the treatment we will be fair to the help of pandemic is the health should not be an education but what is an education issue going back to the main issue is the fact that your teachers are getting paid an average of 38. 00 per month education. Education product do you expect teachers to return to the job on a salary of averaging 58. 00 a month secretary. That is why a government is talking to them and inclusively. Giving them a top up is because they realize this and by government that they needs to be assisted in that direction all right that is. Already here we are with that at all and that isnt obvious from a secretary for the ministry of primary and secondary education talking to us from thank you secretary. You might call him africas robin hood activist.

This time museum staff stooped by as he walked out the door. You know the police were nearby and he know faces a court case there too his lawyer says the ensigns go deeper than just say.

President s tweet but soon bounce back meanwhile stock markets around the world also registering shock we go to new york for the latest. Also coming up as a germany marks the 30 years since reunification we take a look at how eastern germany lets make it has prevailed despite the ongoing economic divisions between east and west. Welcome to do business monica jones and bill him good to have you with us so the pandemic has caught up with the leader of the free world and his wife melania both tested positive for coronavirus the markets werent exactly prepared for the news which came just a month before novembers u. S. President president ial election it was a roller coaster day that saw stock futures and treasury yields tumble things got quieter later on but where investors go from here could rest on how donald trump copes with agencies that has really killed more than a 1000000 people around the world. One for more that story lets cross over to our Financial Market correspondent quartic in new york it seems that investors arent quite sure whether they should panic or stay cool. Theyre clearly i mean a very dramatic and also very dynamic situation the big question will be what might it mean for the u. S. Economy that the 1st lady and the president have been tested positive might that mean that people will be less hesitant to go out to fly it to use cruise ships and the likes and we did see some losses in those areas at some point but maybe we should not just focus on the stock market im standing here in front of a local gas station oil prices dropped by a good 4 percent so maybe that could be a sign that investors are a bit of a very good that and the economy actually might suffer in the weeks and months to come i guess what to tell the stock markets were comments from and then see pelosi the democratic leader of the house and she said that what happened might change the dynamics of. Talks about a new 8 picketts for the u. S. Economy is she also hinted that maybe allens actually could get some relief even be sites of the overall aid pick it so so that lifted tim allen stock some quite a bit but clearly very dramatic and dynamic the is the whole enter situation at that will probably stay that way for the next couple of days. Of course this comes at a difficult time for the u. S. Economy and the latest jobs numbers they dont point to whats a strong recovery do they. Well i mean thats what weve seen with economic reports im all over the place in the past couple of weeks yes the economy is getting stronger but the pace of the recovery is clearly slowing down so now in the month of september by the way that was the last jobs report that were getting before the president ial election 660000 new jobs got created not bad but far less than the expected 800000 what weve also seen is that minorities actually are suffering much more with the pandemic going on than the rest of the country so clearly the pace of Economic Growth is slowing at this point you know ideas quarter in new york thank you so much for your update and to have a nice weekend. Now a brief look at some other business stories making news e. U. Leaders of the greens to levy sanctions against government officials in belarus however the countrys leader Alexander Lukashenko is not among them around 40 officials will be subject to travel bans and have their assets frozen follows a violent crackdown on protesters following august election which the e. U. Has described as break it. Tesla has cleared all the major hurdles needed to get approval for its new factory near berlin according to the Regional State premier it follows nearly 2 weeks of public hearings and barra mentalists and some locals raised concerns about issues including deforestation water usage and noise pollution. So this weekend germany is marking 30 years since east and west became one the fall of the berlin wall was the beginning of the end for many east German Companies who couldnt compete with their western equivalents however some of the skills and expertise they to build up were simply too precious to lose. What youn shuba his bring out here may look unspectacular but this lens is worth as much as a family car and it represents an unusual Success Story optics are one of communist east germanys biggest exports but when germany reunified 30 years ago few thought the state run college size plant here in garo had much of a chance against tough western competition 3 optical engineers took a chance and bought the Company Shares to keep the optical traditional live its authors on the and it certainly wasnt clear to the founders at the time what they were getting themselves into or and then of course over the years we noticed or i noticed just how turbulent it was in the early days of the 1990 s. With. The un it seemed to be stacked against the 3 who had never run a business before and had little idea about the market economy. Monfort shoe box was one of them. The 1st thing he did was to hire an economist. Whom interlocutress i know just as few had to be able to recruit the money we were spending those here been. Viewed items to name and as a health we also had to build relationships with banks on oaf and develop other ties its you to create a Broad Network riotous nits who shot from. The lack of relationships with banks in particular broke the backs of many startups in eastern germany they needed the banks money for investment but they had no experience dealing with banks at all. And that todd is not an issue its an irony of fate that just after the crisis is that these companies were not trusted as much as the Old Established ones that had existed for 3540. 00 or 50 years. From when i was a fool to from. Their strong point was their Technical Knowledge their company known as p. O. G. Or precision optics gave was full of optics experts even so uncertainty about its future meant many sleepless nights for the founders. But that was something they kept to themselves. We couldnt tell the newly hired. That will try to make it work they could have gone to work for other companies but we wanted to keep this cheap togethers and bunch of. The team stuck by the owners and out of 50 employees they soon grew to 180 the road to get there was an arduous one but in the end the company clearly made the cut. On of germanys biggest event has fallen victim to coronavirus munichs world famous a total fest should have once again attracted enormous numbers of people to the very hour they usually drink 7000000 expensive liters of be of this year its cancelled on now its up to the regions government to cushion the blow for the local economy. An atmosphere like the october fest but there isnt much going on munichs can explain this right now the ride and market stall operators have been able to make up some lost sales here and 9 other locations in the city. Kate about shes even selling beer over the counter but small public festivals are no substitute for the october fest says the chairman of munichs showmans association. Its a helping hand that weve gladly accepted but you cant compare it to a whole season there are colleagues who have large stands and they dont have a place for them anywhere in the city. So theyre still at 0 percent compared to last year and basically have no turnover a. German amusement ride and store operating. Normally rake in around 4750000000 euros through the october fest and other folk festivals this year they missed out on most of that visitors though a police such alternative festivals can take place at all. Its no substitute but its still a nice experience its nice here you can come here with small children and have a really lovely time. Bring him. Here at the olympic park many of the approximately 5300 Family Businesses of this kind in germany are fighting to even survive. Most of the International Tourists who normally bring momentum into the business have stayed away this year. Yes its really. Runs until october the fools just like well have our stand here until october the 4th of course were very glad of munich it has made it possible for us to have our stand here were told at. The munich breweries theyre also trying to make up part of their normal october fest turnover at the alternative event this house reason but most visitors here are locals just a handful come from elsewhere the market stall and ride operators and now placing their hopes in germanys 3000 traditional christmas markets. In all of germany sittings weve shown that theres no threat from events like summer in the city or from temporary amusement parks or whatever else is able to take place now. Hygiene concepts can be implemented and developed easily and i hope that these concepts will help us in the christmas season. But above all everyone hopes that next years october fest will attract the crowds once again. To paris where Restaurant Owners gather. Its to make noise after 3 months of closure. The government is in khost last week will shut down all restrooms in areas with high numbers of infections thats already happening now say in the country salsinha protests some restaurants there openly violating the back.

A defining decade which changed society so much for all of the wall after the initial jubilation of reunification and the freedom that came with it for 30000000 east germans how did the aussies and vessels themselves reunites weve dug deep in the extensive d. W. Archive to find out more. German reunification altered the lives of millions of east germans for ever freedom to travel western culture western goods they suddenly had access to it all because of that great and for the joy all the happiness of everyone there was a huge amount of energy that was released. In a public link was 9 years old when the berlin wall fell and lived in the east outside of berlin along with the joy she felt she also had a lot of questions. You know i was pretty confused when it all happened not because i didnt want him or i didnt even really understand it at 1st but because i saw confused people all around me everyone had to get used to the new situation including the children and suddenly everything familiar was gone including a political system that was restrictive but also provided for almost everything disillusionment soon set in the east German Economy collapsed unemployment rose and entire regions became desolate young people in particular grew frustrated. Because we were going to shock. Us might have this big it was really hard for my generation to find its way what direction to go out we had to learn everything about how things work in the west. There were a lot of expectations and we couldnt fulfill them right away not because we didnt want to but because we were scared Scott Peterson had a flu and got him on his voyage as an investment of one stop that.

In 1907 she launched her Television Career as a reporter at the edge of the show polish blind date she brought together young people with opposing viewpoints i mention. This my my you its funny but is that legal immigrants like take the budget much do you think is because we are. In a 1st moved to berlin and to hamburg many of her east german contemporaries also left their hometowns and moved to mostly western germany not an easy step as 2 examples from our archives demonstrate. A car mechanic from saxony on hold found work near stock each friday he drove back to his old home in his brand name or savings. In the g. D. R.

I cant imagine that a millionaire could be happier than we are. Was also able to take advantage of opportunities provided by german reunification some 3 decades later she presents her album sound check in a brewery turned Cultural Center and a chic neighborhood of berlin this used to be east germany now its hard to imagine it was once all in disrepair this is that its simply part of the history that has shaped this country and we have to keep talking about it and we should keep celebrating it as part of our history because this country was divided and now that thats over im happy to meet lovely people no matter where theyre from. Former east former west for even a public link thats irrelevant her life has been improved by reunification and for her the east west divide is firmly in the past but inside. This man that is a. Path that. Is with me now. Follows happy isnt she but the majority of. The german governments most recent reports on the progress of reunification indicated that 57 percent of. Still feel they are 2nd class citizens much of this has to do with the resentment continuing wage divide despite least in germany having made Major Economic progress on the other hand over happiness is the Pew Research Center survey shows that the proportion of eastern germans with the chop happiness writing increased from 15 percent in 1991 to 59 percent in the most recent survey ok now on the cultural from some former east germans have done very well internationally indeed yes. First and foremost ramstein of course whose members all grew up in communist east germany perhaps you know that 3 members were in a band in east berlin and in the eightys they reformed regrouped in the ninetys as ramstein and went on to conquer the world with provocative songs and incendiary live metal circus act the success even more extraordinary because they broke into the u. S.
