His doctors arent quite giving him a clean bill of health, but they are confident he is ready to go. Youve seen the veos and the tweets and you will see him shortly, he is back. Katty he returns to white house hahit by the virus. His press secrery is just the latest staffer to test positive. The news continues to get worldwide attention. We will be in brazil with the reaction from another country whose leader caught the disease. And the african nation that has received international praise for its handling of the pandemic. We take a look at what senegal has been doing right. Katty welcome to world news america on pbs and around the globe. Donald trump is getting ready to leave message to the country about having the coronavirus. I feel great, and tre is really nothing to be afraid of. Doctors treating the president have told reporters that he hasnt had a fever and more than hours and said he would remain on antiviral and steroid medication when he returns to medical care in the white house. Here is our north american editor with more. Hnjo is being dubbed the covid y ride. Last night, the president , who is still infectious, decided he wanted to wave to his supporters outside walter reed hospital. The six lane highway was cleared, secret service ,ards fanned o and theotcade was moving toward where we were standing. Seeing the preside isvable, being treated for coronavirus. Half of his convoy hasom just down this busy road. All traffic has been cleared and e president is waiting at his supporters to say thank you for coming out to backim while he has been in the hospital. You can see all the vehicles of accompanying the pnt. Oy donald trump, probably the worlds most impatient patient, even released a video. President trump its been an interesting journey. I learned a lot about covid. This is the real school, this isnt the less read the book ho. And i get it, and i understand. John th driveby brought ferocious criticisfrom one of the physicians at the hospital. Dr. James phillips tweeted, completely unnecessary driveby by the president has to quarantine for8 hours. The political theater commanded by trump to put their lives at risk in theater. This is insanity. The president is returning to the white house tonight and will stl require treatment. His doctors say he is not yet out of the woods. We are all cautiously optimistic because we are in a t of uncharted territory. That he received the therapies that he has so i earlyn the course. John he is still on powerful steroids. The campaign for next months president ial election is all systemse go as went full caps lock with the whole variety of policy issues. The democratic candidate, joe biden, was speaking to reporters with his wife jill ensuring that he maintain social distancing. Mr. Biden im not an expert on it, but i think we should be very cautious. Im going to continue to listen to the science. John meanwhile its been announced that the presisent prcretary has been the latest to test positive for coronavirus. She has been speaking to rerters over the weekend, taking off her mask to discuss his diagnosis. S Health Following astonishingly, the white house itself h of a covid outbreak. R katty so President Trump will different white house than the one he left on friday with multiple staffers now sting positive eer there will be more people in isolation and there are now more guidelines to wear masks. The white house will not be the building h left and he will go into isolation himself. For more on the medical considerations surrounding the worlds most famous covid patient, im joined by an emergency physician at Round University and cofounder of the organization, get us ppe. Dr. , tha you for joining us. When you listen to the doctors and you see that the president going back to the white house, are you happy with what you are hearing from th doctors and how that factors into his prognosis and howar the treating him as he is being sent home . Asem agency physician, i would never send someone home from the hospital was stilliv reg remdesivir. That being said, President Trump is different from the rest of us. He has access to a type and intensity of medical care at tho white that the rest of us could never dream of. So it may be safe him to go home, but it may not be. We know that patients who get extra special care sometimes do worse. There is a thing in medicine called vip syndrome, where vips who get extra treatment can dore mo poorly just because of extra testing and extra treatment. Soti i am quite concerned about President Trump and hesitant about the fact that hes being discharged back to the white house. Tty and from what you know of this virus and how it ogresses, it is now four days since his diagnosis,ha with timeframe, four days, put somebody beyond the worst impacts the virus . Ol aely not. This virus is known, first of all, forgetting much better and then muc worse and any given moment is not a good measure of how they are feeling overall. Second of all, we often see its worst effects somewhere around day 710 of illness. Thats whenhat hyper inflammatory cascade takes over. People get severe trouble breathin art problems, kidney problems, strokes, etc. E so his couerhe next five ,ays will be just as, if not more importahan what has happened to date. Katty i dont know if youse hae the tweet he sent out in hospital earlier this afternoon, but at the end of that tweet, 20 says he feelears younger and advises people not to be afraid of the coronirus and dominated by it, saying i feel 20 years younger than i did. As doctors try to tell people to social distance wear masks and wash their hands a lot and take this seriously, is that message ightly counterproductive . I think it is more than slightly counterproductive. I ink it is a tremendously instructive and harmful tweet to have sent out to theirs to our nation. Covid19 is incredibly serious. Many just like President Trump have died over the last eight months, and millions more have longter a symptoms result of a covid19 diagnosis. Moreover, the fact that he feels 20 years younger, that could just as likely be due to the steroids that he was put o for his severe infection. Could lead to longitself, it problems. Katty you mentioned the dexamethasone and we know that can make you a little hyper energetic and can have an impact on you. Is that the kind of thing you are talking about . I understanding is that a patient and his condition and as his doctor described it would not necessarily have hadme deasone. Is that the vip type downside that youbo were talking with that kind of treatment . Absolutely. There are inadvertent downsides to any medication we give and thats why we use the evidence and data to guide us. To my knowledge, President Trump is the only person in theo orld s received dexamethasone, remdesivir, and this new treatment, regeneron, the cocktail of monoclonal antibodies. We dont know how those are going to Work Together a for most patients, even the first twore only given if people are seriously ill. There are contraindications to giving damethasone t people with only mild illness. It causes morear than good. So that is that vip syndrome, it could potentially cause him more harm. He may get lucky and it may be helpful, and we are certainly all hoping for that. I wish him only the best, bu iquite concerned about what his course is going to be and again about that combined effect of all these medications. We just dont know. Tt dr. , thank you so much for joining us. That is the medical side of things. Lets switch gears and look at the politics of all this. Im joined by our senior north onerican reporter. An last week, on friday, i was texting with the Trump Campaign Senior Advisor and i said how does the fact that the president has been diagnosed with covidmpact the campaign customer he texted back immediately, well, if things go ok, this cldlay to our advantage because hes a 74yearold man and if h doesnget it terribly seriously, then perhaps we can show c thatid is not as serious as other people have been suggesting. That is the interpretation im taking away from the president s tweet this afternoon. Anthony you already can see republicans around donald trump on social media talking about how trump beat the virus, that he defeated it. A public incentive candidate from georgia tweetedut a wrestling video with donald trumpeading off a person who had the virus as its head. We all saw from his tweet, it fits into what donald trump was, saying befhich is that the United States can overcome this, that it is turning the corner, now they are using donald trump condition itse as an example of this journey that they see the American People going on. Katty i wonder if its going to work, though, because look at all the recent opinio polls that do seem to suggest that a comfortable majority of americans dont feel that the president has handled this virus responsibly. Will one persons experience t changeir minds . Anthony that is the risk of it. Obviously donald trump was intrailing in the polls gointo th. Have to imagine that the 200 thousands of americans who died, their families and friinds are not goto appreciate donald trump tweeting about not being afraid of covid and not letting it dominate your life. Youve seen some snap polls afr he got the diagnosis, the majority of americans are saying that t president was reckless in his handling of the disease and this was just the latest example. As we discussed on friday, four months now tub americanc has looked at this and said they dont approve of the way donald trump has handled this. So anything that brings a focus back on to coronavirus, the campaign and the president himself or trying to make the best of it. It see katty it feels like monthsas ao but it only friday. Thank you very much for joining us, Anthony Privette networksn newspapers across america have been hanging on every update from the whiteouse about the president status, but how are people outside the country feeling about the story . Our katy watson is in sao paulo enjoins us from was ill. Thank you for joining in us. Has this been a big story in brazil . Katie t is certainly being watched very carefully. The president here also e ntracted coronavirus and it is interesting to e parallels here. John bolsonaro hasnt said too much, he wished President Trump anthe first lady a speedy recovery. He said they are leaving the country and the reelection wont beyo hurt will come out victorious. A quote from a man katty what political impt did it have on mr. Bolsonaro . Didol he get aical boost out of this or did he pay a political price for it . Can you assess the political impact of having covid on him . Kati the impact of covid on him was not so clear. What we have seen is that hissu ort has risen. He was criticized for the way he handled the pandemic, the that he had been giving out generous handouts to 60 moon peopleave benefited from government handouts and that has seen his popularity rise. If you compare what is happening with donald trump just ahead os the election win psident bolsonarosp e the fact that he couldnt continue on the campaign trail, he still managed to win. It was seen as perhaps a sympathy vote and could be translatedreo what we see in the u. S. , so those parallels are being drawn here. Katt thats so interesting, it ppened at about the same timeame close to the resilient election. Do brazilians think of donald trump as a similar character to bolsonaro . The people who support him, do they have an affection for donald trump . Katie his nickname, trumpeter trp, is criticized by some the fact that bolsonaro looks at donald trump as a model, he certainly wants to have that close relationship with the u. S. , and the way he has behaved with the virus, playing it out from the very beginning, and also he came out and recovered very quickly from coronavirus. I think people look to the u. S. And look to see how donald trump is behaving and at the end of the day, the u. S. Is stillf powerful force. But whetherre t they are the same kind of politicians, there are some celebrities similarities. Katty so katy w i had not heard that before, trumpeter the World Health Organizion says about 10 of the worlds population has been infected with the coronavirus, leaving the remaining 90 vulnerable to the infection. The executive board of the yuan body has bun a meeting to assess the pandemic and the Global Response to i European Commission president has confirmed that she is selfisolating after coming into contact with someone who has tested positivehe for virus. In the tweet she said, ive been informed that i attended a meetin and in accordance with regulations im selfisolating until tomorrow morning. I am being tesd again today. Youre watching bbc world news america. Still to come, we will look at pas where boris will close on esday as part of new restrictions to tackle the spread of the pandemic since president was diagnosed with covid19, unfounded and outlandish conspiracs conspiracy theories continue to spread online payment lets get the analysis of our disinformation reporter. More on why she believes these theories are increasing. This particular case, at least because President Trump is accused of spreading this information about the pandemic seit, and the u. S. Election is fast approaching. And using this as an opportunity to both criticize and praise trump. Over the weekend it became even yet more fertile for disinforma theories because of mixed messaging from the white house, who were unclear about when president was diagnosed with the coronavirus, how ill he actualle treatment he was receiving on saturday. Katty the the french capital of paris is once again struggling to keep the coronavirus under control. The citys famous bars and cafes will blod for two weeks, starting tomorrow, after the government raise the alert level to the highest possible privette restaurants and bars selling food as well as alcohol will bes allowed y open, but they will have to introduce further safety measures. Meanwhile the counts universities are also being told to take further precautions topr stop thed among young people. T news from paris is not good. Infections are above 250 per 100,000 people, which means the city will automatically have new measures kick in. The measures are meant to put the brakes on. The epidemic is going too fast. Have to slow it down. So that our Health System is not overwhelmed. The Headline News is that bars and cafes are going to shut completely for two weeks from tomorrow. They have already been closing at, 10 but that hasnt been enough to stop the virus spreading. The main in vector for covid righnow it is reckoned is young people. Young people aroften under the fects of alcohol, dropping their covid guard. Restaurants and also expected to be hot to be told to shut, can stay open if they observe a maximum of six to a table and masks onllhe time except at the moment you are eating. Young people are also targeted at universities, which have been told that lecture hls is now only be used at 50 capacity. Some are skeptical about the bar closures, but resigned. Im not surprised that my average age is the most uninhibited. People are still living like nothing is happening,ats why i dont think that closing the bars is going to make a difference. Paris joinsil mars in what they call a state of massive covid alert. The next step would be a state of emergency. Hugh schofield, bbc news, paris. Katty as weve reported on this progra some countries have handled this virus much better than others have. Ny, noticeably, are in africa. One of the countries given a lot of international praise is senegal in west africa. Nce the first case was confirmed in early march, it is only reported 312 deaths. Hes a look at how cynical has recovered senegal has recovered. In the era of covid19, some places of worship have been hotspots for the disease, but not here. Its experience with previous outbreaks includi zika and ebola. I think the experience ofga sedealing with the other diseases has been key to this crisis. Itbeen reused and reapted for covid. There have only been 15 thousand confirmed cases and about 300 deaths. Just 26 patients are on ventilators and Rapid Testing is thene corners of the countrys containment strategy. Lab capacity has been efed up and results come within eight hours privette senegal has seen some small outbreaks. Around 60 of his colleagues had it back in april. I tell them my temperature was not particularly high, but i smell. My sense of taste a i was just scared because my colleagues had tested too. Global index by forazgn policy magine get the country the high st possiblere for its communication strategy privette weather is on the reets, through music, or in the countries mosques, the messaging is clear. Africaes countike senegal have successfully avoided the at the beginning of the pandemic and has only haabout a million cases. It peaked iny j and the African Center of Disease Control says more testing is neededbut the continent has not had the levels of coronavirus seen in other parts of the world. Senegal is key to maintain the progress made so far. At the hght of the pandemic, temperature checks were widespread, but these ha largelyeen relaxed. Over 4 Million People are expected to attend a rigious pilgrimage this week. Katty i took away one from that, and thats about the type of testing. Here in the United States it can a result of covid tests. In senegal, theyve got it down igto hours. Thats impressive, and clearly what is needed if youre going to stop the outbrea. One final story, in holland thisomes out of the philippines. This sunday was world animal day and also the feast of st. Francis of assisi, the patron saint of animals. A Catholic Priest in manila decided to hold a socially distance lessings ceremony for the communities animals, kind of a drivethru blessing. Thats, dogs, birds, you name ih , little fluffe puppies.
