Cant show you my face but im going to tell you must story in 9093 this man was sentenced to death. They get charged with capital murder even though he didnt have the gun didnt pull the trigger didnt intend to kill anybody imagine living in your bathroom for the week with his son of a 23. 00. Confined within 4 gray walls fun its using hard to turn on to help him to leave death row. Max kaiser this is the kaiser report you know it was the best of times it was the worst of times stacey this sounds like the opening lines to a tale of 2 cities by Charles Dickens and he was somebody quite useful and relevant to this age because he was writing during the beginning of the end of the British Empire and also during the explosion of the wrong take class a lot of what he wrote about is the disaster capitalism caused by the ron to class so were in a very similar time to that with this pandemic meeting the over leveraged fake system that we have and the chaos that is causing and just for those of you out there who are you know perhaps like myself perhaps too busy reading twitter all the time and not enough time to devote to reading a tale to cities i want to read the rest of that quote from the opening of a tele to cities because its quite relevant i think to our time because that book was written in the period leading up to the french revolution and then through the reign of terror which i think is similar to what we have today it was the best of times it was the worst of times it was age of wisdom it was the age of foolishness it was that of belief it was a part of incredulity it was the season of light it was a season of darkness it was the spring of hope it was the winter of despair we had everything before us we had nothing before us well well done Charles Dickens captured the guys at that moment to make a Christmas Carol being a condemnation of capitalism osama yes you know the ghost of christmas future was neo liberalism visiting upon the president to try to warn people what happens when you financial lies the Global Economy and you do 3 or 400 years with the consumption today chris. Being a holiday of consumption or losing its its significance as a spiritual soulful occasion and here we are you know weve all been very very naughty and weve all been sent to our room they were all sitting in our rooms now thinking about what we did this is a moment of self reflection for the Global Community to sit in your room and think about what youve done because youve been very very naughty and theres a sort of sense that yes it is bad on the way to Something Better ok yes for example the revolution and france and the reign of terror were not pleasant events in themselves but at the end of the day they led to a republic and. A wealth and income gap that declined rapidly and you know a flourishing of the ordinary person the same here what were seeing is were seeing the end of a Financial System a debt based system a fee based system it was never going to be nice it was never going to be great it was never going to be you know easy but you had that insurance of your gold position for this sort of situation and i want to look at the fact that it is over no matter what you think it is over now the world has permanently changed the fed is attempting to stop this repricing from going any further they essentially announced they are nationalizing the markets and hes looking at a headline from the f. T. Nationalization a bond markets helps calm nerves feds promise of unlimited buying will not be enough on its own says investors mean this is the culmination of what weve been talking about for a number of years here on the kaiser report for those of you just catching up now this is what weve been warning about and talking about for years so in other words no price discovery is allowed no risk borne by the financier allowed no risk for the billionaire class no possibility of losing a pony. As long as the central bank is committed to infinite money printing infinite those of their words infinit money printing so that means that the stock market the s. And p. 500. 00 the bond market is being taken private ok all those stocks and bonds will no longer be publicly traded or publicly listed or the vast majority of them will no longer be theyll be then priced like Dell Computer member michael dell decided a few years ago being a Public Company and so much work and my stocks terrible im just going to go private oh ok apply that now to the majority of the s. P. 500 deaths is going to go private so what will be left is a fast penny stock like junk bond market for idiots and casino operators to lose money in every single day for the benefit of the rons yes pretty much thats the future if you notice the stock market is not going down particularly at this very moment as the flood of the wall of the tsunami of money will go flows into the pockets of the billionaires the bond market dwarfs the equity markets the stock market so its way vastly bigger ordinary people dont know the size of it and the numbers wouldnt even make sense them but the fact that that is the internationalized and presumably thats part also bailing out Pension Funds the mutual market funds like a whole sector of the economy that youre not even looking at youre just looking at the shortage of toilet paper the shortage of real goods and Services Like thats something that everybody can see but the the wall street knows that theres a shortage in the bond market theres a crisis there and nobody wants to hold that this is what weve seen way back from september when the repo market was being intervened in by well now is that a trillion dollars and that well lets be clear about our term nationalized because it doesnt refer to like a government lets say france or the United Kingdom taking over public transport and for the benefit of public who will then. Bring in pricing that is in the Public Interest this is american style nationalism where you have the fed which is a private bank owned by private bankers lending out infinite amount of paper money so that the billionaires can be assured of never ever taking a risk or losing any money thats the american style nationalism is to go private thats what they call nationalism stiffer than european nationalism now its the best of times and the worst of times in the gold market as well as weve been covering and i have a tweet here from roy said bog the situation on the gold market has not improved there is no metal and bully on banks have now stopped offering 2 way markets for gold the spot price is disconnected and seems to be discovering the price for some thing that isnt gold if you have gold to sell contact us right now theres 2. 00 parts to the financialization of the world and the increase in debt to many hundreds of trillions of dollars around the world many hundreds of times g. D. P. Around the world and that is the suppression of gold we started doing all this content business back when the Gold Antitrust Action Committee in the early 2000 issued a report on gold suppression this is one of the 1st things we cover and this has been the story a sense that early 2000 period gold is safe and sober have not been allowed to express their market price theres been no true price discovery because you cant have a financial ization going on rampant with hundreds of trillions of dollars worth of worthless debt and paper money without suppressing the price of gold now were at the point where the money is starting to finally hit the buffers and so gold is allowed to be valued in the true price discovery as the comix in the l b m a collapse as they did the early sixtys during the gold pool days that means youre going to see i believe my opinion the price of gold that currently in the you know 13141500 dollars 600 dollar ainge will gap open the 2500. 00. And head over to 5000 to to make up for all that last time youre seeing a demand for physical people want physical gold these investors these multibillionaires want gold nation states Central Banks want gold and thats what youre seeing this shortage of the gold supply the paper markets are unable to deliver physical gold thats what were seeing with these exchange for physical contracts being broken on the other hand also what youre saying about that what theyve been able to do or what theyve done since the 1980 s. For sure is that there is you know since the plaza chord and all this sort of stuff that you are you need to maintain faith in the fiats currency right for this whole system to survive as it is this is the worst of times for that system as not coming back they all think its coming back its not coming back for them because what youre seeing with this desire for physical gold is not just speculative exposure to the price because thats where you go in the fist in the paper markets you want the actual thing because you are starting to lose faith in the system and i notice ordinary people are starting to question this as well not biased necessarily buying gold but if youve noticed on twitter a lot of people have noticed since were printing up trillions of dollars all over the world every governments printing euros or pounds or dollars is theyre saying well why do we have to pay taxes anyway and as you and i have pointed out here the taxes are just in order to maintain peoples belief that theres some value in it like i have to work so i have to pay these taxes that means the government really thinks these are valuable and well if they were just printing it up you know you would not have faith in the currency so again you know everybodys called for hyperinflation has been the widow maker for each of trades for decades since 1971 essentially but it could happen it could happen and when it does it will happen suddenly and its gradually happening but then itll suddenly happen right i think youre already starting to see this in things like arms use prices so are shoes prices due to the pandemic which is. Caused in part by the pool look for ration of paper money in the absence of goal price discovery is now skyrocketing price due to shortages because its a physical thing and people say oh i need my help i want my orange juice while the prices are skyrocketing same thing is happening on the commodities and the same thing is happening with gold and silver remember billionaires think of gold and silver the way the Unemployed People think about toilet paper yet youve said this and you said a few episodes ago you did warn that what would happen is just as you see people stampeding to the supermarket to buy toilet paper you still cant 2 weeks later you cannot get any on amazon theres a shortage of toilet paper and you cant find a role for any price you said the same thing would happen with gold that once once you needed it it wouldnt be there for you and you see that in this tweet related to the gold market as well from its bits gold market is facing unprecedented turmoil worldwide panic over corona Virus Outbreak and flood of stimulus by Central Banks has ignited demand for one of humanitys oldest methods of storing wealth as suddenly much harder to get metal when its needed i predict the ultimate and this is not only the ultimate use case but the ultimate irony is that once people realize they cannot get gold. They all star flocking on masse into bitcoin because thatll be the only way they can protect their wealth with this reliable store of value and thats so funny because everyone in the Gold Community the big point weve been warning back and forth for years ultimately the ultimate use case for because when no gold is available at any price because theyre simply billionaires of scarfed it all up unlike 2008 when gold prices did decline by 30 percent as everybody sold off all they had in order to meet that margin calls we saw that briefly but he could about the situation of the pandemic is that many mines are actually having to shut down so youre going to have a serious shortage at supply the refineries as you mentioned in switzerland are also shut down so we could be encountering a real crisis in the gold markets just like in the toilet paper markets. Right mines are shutting down supplies the drying up as you point the key is that when you most need it most it wont be there thats why people like myself and others in the Gold Community have always been saying you cant wait for that people all say one is going to move once youve got to move well you have to better be a year too early than a day too late because once youre too late youre too late the door is shut youre out hey you know whats been going to great books for the pandemic you like Charles Dickens so hes a good one from our bookshelves here who play right this is a classic this is really you know detail ing oh all the Emotional Turmoil that goes with the it is its a pandemic says it worse off the some new its happened before and you have got to take a break and when we come back much more coming your way. Micrographs friends arent slights against you know whites or men for example theres their slights against women or nonwhites so its always you know the idea is that statements that directed toward a Privileged Group are interpreted differently than a statement directed toward a oppressed group and so thats kind of the whole framework and its a its a political framework thats used the result is of course focusing at least on certain kinds of minor slights and saying well rather than the north more than we need to call attention to them but its not all slight so its very political and its contents. Welcome back to the kaiser report imax keyser time now to turn to journalist author podcast or matt taibbi his podcast is called useful idiots not to be confused of course with the useless that is once again destroyed our economy and Financial System matt welcome back as we go max a fabulous. Yet out davies now nobody captured the 2008 financial crash site guys better than you with their talk about Goldman Sachs is a vampire squid have you come up with a similar metaphor for the 2020 pandemic collapse yet i have not i have to go into the metaphor factory for this one ill just leave this this whole thing it is this size of it is so hard to get your head wrapped around it just conceptually i just dont really have a firm grasp on whats happening here i mean clearly this is going to dwarf and up the works in 2008 in so many Different Directions in including with the bill a package so its really hard to really hard to have an ally not yet well a lot of ways its a continuation of 2008 its part 2 of 2008 because as you documented in your work at that time the solution at that time was to simply give the guys who did the bad things more money to do more bad things so here we are in 2020 and suddenly the outcome is much much worse now the u. S. Spends 18 percent of their g. D. P. On health care and yet health care and Health Workers in the top hospitals in new york city are wearing garbage bags for medical gowns what does that tell us well obviously we have a Health Care System thats completely inefficient and its based on a series of incentives that dont really make sense in terms of your aim is to provide good and Efficient Health care to everybody thats really. Care system is designed to do is designed to drive profits to a few people in a few industries the pharmaceutical Insurance Industry is made mainly hospitals as well one of things were finding out with this crisis is that theres theres just a mismatch so set of incentives for just providing basic care so for instance hospitals are going to be killed through this this whole affair because just putting a sick person in a bit for 7 today and 10 days and putting them on a ventilator is not a money making activity for them so even though theyre going to be overwhelmed theyre going to be busier than ever theyre actually going to lose cash theyre going to forego elective surgeries theyre not going to be doing the more more serious surgeries that make their big money the disciplines of things like masks and downs there are rules for how you maintain the inventory of those that are preventing them from having stockpiles so all of this is exposing profound flaws in it and how we Structure Health care now back in 2008 there was the tarp money and a 750000000000 dollars or so and then that metastasized became many trillions of dollars this 2020 repeat of the 28. 00 crisis has started off what they 6 trillion dollar bailout im sure that all ballooned to much bigger numbers in the in the months that followed the vast majority go to the same bankers private equity corporations that wrecked the economy stephen itchin has been granted an enormous powers over trillions to be dispensed to banks and corporations another Daylight Robbery in the works but this is again its a repeat of 2008 but just 1020. 00 times bigger and it doesnt same like theres anything in place that would put any brakes on this at all man no there there oh there wont be and i think the difference with this as opposed to 2008 is that it doesnt if there wasnt one. There wasnt a predicate event that the public could look at and say this organically caused the financial crisis i mean if anybody bothered to actually look they would find that the 2 dozen it crash was caused by. A lengthy period of gambling in the Mortgage Markets particularly the subprime Mortgage Markets and they would be able to draw didnt direct line between that and the people who are. The companies that were most in crisis that ended up receiving most of the 8 in this case i think its going to be very very hard to train public eyes on the financial disaster and see and have them be upset in the same way as they ultimately were a few 1000 it because people are going to say this is an organic Natural Disaster that we just had to deal with one way or the other and theyre theyre going to ignore the gene of the enormous profiteering thats going to go on because theyre going to see it as a rational response to a real crisis now leading up the years up to they have this crisis airlines this is one thing though that people are really starting to figure out matt is that the Airlines Spend and other companies 96 percent of their cash flow on the stock buybacks boeing spend 100000000000. 00 on buybacks now theyre getting bailed out. So theres a direct cause and effect here the airlines spent all of their Free Cash Flow boosting their own stock and essentially transferring that wealth to the executives now when they need the cash they dont have it and they go for a bailout and this is being understood by the public now they understand this that there was a wholesale thievery going on in these Industries Including they particularly in the Airline Industry another mame thats gaining enormous traction is the bit Central Banks go burn or bird on a you know they theyre trying to inflate the market by printing money so theres i mean. You know a pink well jack psyche. Guy printing money quickly to keep up the market so there is a connection people do see the connection now between artificial money printing and the for the facade of a functioning market so i think the public same to be catching on matt m. In your got your finger on the pulse of that the Rolling Stone. Meme i wrong what theyll eventually see is that there were serious flaws in the economy i was that what youre talking about and we said this artificially overheated stock market this economy that its you know thats been based on all these rosy numbers that are continually reported coming out of of wall street but as you point out you know it was really it was really a party that the executives movement of these publicly traded companies were throwing for themselves and they were just piling more and more cash into their into their own share prices in order to perth personally profit so when this happens its not like we just said hey thats not a healthy way to structure the economy and thats not the best way to actually equitably distribute resources and invest and grow and all these things know that the response was just lets just throw a bunch of money at the stock market so it keeps going in that direction and we can keep this party going then you see youre right theres absolute correlation and thats because thats exactly what happened in 2008 similarly you know with with the money printing of course we had more or less exactly the same situation 2000 in it with you know the various quantitative easing programs so yeah its the same i just think the public its going to take them one extra step to get to get there it to get to the ridge just because of because of the coronavirus thing that people are going to say way its a its a real problem lets turn to politics and i know youve been writing a lot and tweeting a lot about this upcoming 2020 race because its got some fantastic cast of characters and some rail. Drama developing hair on the democratic side weve got joe biden. There seems to base and question surrounding whats going on in that camp. And the truth of the look at twitter apparently the American Voters are still a lot of support of the way trump handling the coronas coronavirus pandemic. But whats your take here looks like they looks like the democrats might be underestimating trump again but what what what how do you see whats happening here such a repeat of 2016 i cover Trumps Campaign in 2016 and right from the start one of the things i noticed was there was a there was a gap between how trump was perceived by people people like me in the media you know who worked in new york l. A. And washington and how he was being pursued by people in the rest of the country by the bulk of voters particularly by the bulk of conservative and independent voters so trump the more he was exposed to people the more people actually liked him i mean when he went on the campaign trail they love going to his rallies you get enormous amounts of enthusiasm but the the press and the Political Class continually registered this is some kind of error like they would like it wasnt real they thought that it was some there was eventually going to be some kind of correction the more they wrote about him the more they they complained about among television it didnt happen like that again more the more trump got out in front of voters the better he did ultimately and the more condemnation he got from from people in new york l. A. In washington the more people seem to like him and thats what were seeing now again with this coronavirus thing and with this election cycle theres been this assumption then it assumes we get somebody whos you know the superficially not a lunatic that that person is automatically going to. Win this enormous amount of support but no like you didnt even in this. Basis trumps Approval Rating goes up his Approval Rating during the impeachment hearings went up during rush it went up and its the same miscalculation of the same people are making it just boggles my mind that they think that theres going to be a different outcome this time well into 26. 00 tame and living up to 2020 there sames to pay the dead hand of Hillary Clinton and play right i mean whatever happens is that you know if she denied bernie 2016 the d. N. C. Have whats a palace he still has influence has maneuvered bernie out through a lot of dirty tricks and now with biden it looks like a straw man. To somehow maybe parachute hillary in at the last minute to save the day and that is that the reason trump gained the so much popularity is because people see through the machinations of Hillary Clinton well whether its hillary personally or just the party as backed by hillary and all of the clinton acolytes yeah its those people i dont know that theres actually a plan to replace joe biden with somebody like hillary or injure cuomo thats the popular Conspiracy Theory lately. But certainly they think that their formula that that formula of politics is going to somehow prevail this time around and theyre just wrong they did they dont understand how theres a theres a ceiling there for how how much support that brand of politics can get with the selector it in their day also dont understand that theres a theres an enormous level of. Anger interests restoration and just already dislike of that brand of politics out there theyre not sensitive to it they think actually that they do or theyre like much more than they are and desist. Frustrating to watch that but the thing with Bernie Sanders i think hes a flawed candidate look when you have known him forever and ever written a lot about him over the years he does have his flaws but. The reason he was interesting as a candidate because he presented a different kind of politics something that was substantively different from what they ran last time and i think you would have had a better chance with independents and with other kinds of voters. But no they want to go back and just you know run it back and they think its going to be different i dont understand ok well that nice to speak with there again mats a. B. Hope to talk to you again soon absolutely max hang in there well do well thats going to do it for this edition of the kaiser report with me max kaiser and Stacey Everett like to thank our guest mats a big star writer on the Rolling Stone if you want to catch us on twitter its kaiser report and so next time. Theyre just taking all the alternative all. Taking and as i say the stage show the water pump cold real choices binary choice and only choices if you say the. Best binary thing is not a chongs the arab states to school to provide a new architecture revives a call ted to start negotiations with. Israel then he invited to negotiate them by to think about whats being put on the table. Welcoming our viewers from around the world live from Central London this is r. T. U. K. Britains coronavirus death toll soars to its highest daily death rate yet and could still be underestimating the scale of the crisis as was the government fails to hit its target for testing. The chief doctor of russias main hospital treating cope with 19 patients has tested positive for the virus just dont wait after meeting with a lot of it we get reaction from moscow. A Doomsday Clock is created showing how close each country is to pick great about us and it seems we havent even got started and the man behind the project. Also this the European ParliamentLargest Group of any peace calls on britains also for an extension of the brics its transition period while both sides deal with the bars and that. The coronavirus death rate in the u. K. Continues to soar to almost 400. 00 in a single day and the toll could be even higher after it was revealed the governments own figures dont include those fatalities occurring outside hospitals thats his number 10 is accused of failing to meet his own targets to ramp up testing. And he joins me here in the studio with the latest bring us up to speed and well weve been seeing of course in the last few hours the Daily Briefing which takes place with government ministers and other officials and weve also been hearing from the National Medical director of n. H. S. England Stephen Powell who warns that despite that rise in the number of deaths in the u. K. The country has barely got into the woods let alone get out of them. We have had a rise in the number of u. K. Cases but recently there is a little bit of a plateau now i think its really important not to read too much into this because its early days were not out of the woods were very much in the woods and its really important that we keep complying with those instructions. Now that says the death toll in the u. K. Has risen to 1789. 00 thats a rise of almost 400. 00 in just the most recent 24 hour period so a very dramatic rise the largest rise in the 24 hour period so far during this crisis and the numbers could be even higher because there have been inconsistent sees in the way the numbers have been reported we know that the office of National Statistics g. O. N. s have now just begun releasing weekly figures for the number of deaths and most the world this is the 1st time the release of these figures the most recent figures they have are up to and including the 7 days up to march 20th could into unless there were 210. 00 deaths in that period or up to that period but n. H. S. England and Public Health wales said that there were only 170. 00 deaths in those 2 countries now that discrepancy could be down from methodology the ins include deaths which take place in hospitals and also outside of hospitals so for example anyone whos died after testing positive for covert 19 in care homes but with the n. H. S. And Public Health england their figures only include hospital deaths so that could mean that the actual death toll is a lot higher than 1789. 00 and these are the governments testing plans going around i. What weve seen the government coming in for criticism in general for the way that theyve been dealing with the corona virus crisis but the Prime MinisterBoris Johnson was keen to show that hes on top of things and that hes been holding a Cabinet Meeting a virtual Cabinet Meeting with his colleagues via a Video Conferencing up and he took to twitter once more to remind the country that they should stay at home in order to protect the n. H. S. And save lives that seems to have become somewhat of a slogan for the government now there are criticisms about how many tests are taking place the government say theyve reached their target of 10000. 00 tests. De the figures leading up to sunday morning the 24 hours leading up to sunday morning show that its less than 5000. 00 tests although michael gove has been defending those stats and saying that those figures arent strictly accurate however whatever the real figures they are somewhere short of other European Countries germany for example has been testing 70000 people a day but the government are stepping up their efforts i killer up in North West London their wembley they have turned their location into a Testing Center for n. H. S. Workers and its staff and so thats surely going to be some relief to those n. H. S. Workers who thus far have been complaining about not enough testing but also about the lack of protective personal quitman now we know that the government have been ordering tests up to 3 and a half 1000000 self testing kits which people can do at home but there are going to be more delays with that because one of the batches or some of the batches of those tests which have been imported into the u. K. Have themselves just the positives being infected with 19 so yet more problems and yet more delays but the government expecting those now to be released sometime in april he said thank you very much for all of that the government failed to fully implement advice given on handling pandemics from a 28000 review of the u. K. s biological security as according to a former top scientific advisor the Environment Department professor in boyd who helped with the paper said the main issue was a lack of resources he said the governments attitude towards pandemic storms of mass blackouts was to treat them individually when other critics said many m. P. s had been too concerned with brick sit and elections to focus on the nations bond logical security letter spoke to professor in boyd and he said that one events like this are very rare its important for governments to be prepared. All governments are faced with lots of different unchastened some of those challenges are very large but. Are very very unlikely to happen the problem is that the more of those challenges you have the more likely one of them is to have is likely to happen for no quite which which one it is so that the dalai lama for government its what do you plan for and it is a its an extraordinary difficult one were hearing a lot of suggestions that the government should be insuring planning more in advance for this particular pandemic but that would require people to change their behaviors at a time when they well are not really fully sort of believing that this was going to actually happen and thats a very difficult thing to do politically within the system so you know there is something here but governments need to look at which is about fundamentally how do they plan for or are these the event and events which are very low frequency say in boyd added that the impact on the coronavirus would be with us for many years to come. You know i think that this is going to go on for a long time including 1000 is going to be with us for a long time its possible we will never get rid of it completely. But on the other hand we managed to 2 sort of wring it out of the statistics in due course but its going to take months if not years to do that completely however i think in the short term we will find that the rate of infection writers will population there are less and less susceptible individuals around and we will be able to relax a lot of the measures that were living under at the moment i mean that will happen is just you know i think i think its not going to happen in the next. Month or 2. A Senior Police chief is one front line officers not to be overzealous in enforcing britains knock down assistant commissioner of the metropolitan police neil bass who says that theres a balance to be struck but also told the public to make allowances for any mistakes after reports of offices abusing their new powers preserving the trust and confidence of the public in policing by consent is our mantra and has been since 829 there will be a period of readjustment to our new responsibilities which no Police Officer ever thought they would have not every Police Response will be sure footed and some will spark healthy debate we should not judge too harshly some forces are accused of exercising the new power sanctioned by the government to horsley association of Convenience Stores reported Police Searching through customers baskets to remove nonessential items in pharmacies despite there being no official guidance when others reported being stopped in their car while travelling to exercise in the countryside exercise which is allowed under the rules. So what do the power states while police have the authority to instruct the public to go home leave an area or disperse and to ensure that people stay home and dont make non essential journeys they can also ensure parents are taking necessary steps to stop their children from breaking the rules and officers can issue a fixed penalty of 60 pounds doubling for 2nd time offenders if there is a failure to comply and they can arrest those who repeatedly flout the direction but critics say there must be more clarification about the difference between rules and guidelines and fear that society is losing its basic freedoms the real problem is that when human societies lose their freedoms it isnt when tyrants take it away it is when people willingly surrender their freedom against some external threat and the threat is usually a real threat but usually exaggerated that is what i fear we are seeing now and when you look at some of the other Police Activity you can see why some feel they might not be acting within the spirit of the more or even within the law itself. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow wow. Wow wow. Wow. More news after a short break. The world is driven by shaped by. The day or thinks. We. Ask. Theyre just taking over all the alternative all cutting taking and killing as i say the stage so the. Cold real choices binary choice and only choices if you save. Both binary thing is not a chance for the states to the school to provide a new architecture revive the cold ted and start negotiations with. Israel if they dont invited to negotiate them by to seeing whats being put on the table. The chief dr rushs main hospital treating covert 900 patients has tested positive for the virus thats just one week off to shaking hands with. Well this is of course the biggest good news that sco men out of russia coming out of moscow this evening we did learn from mr present caus Facebook Page that his corona virus test was positive let me just read to you what he said that post dear friends im really touched by your concerns yes ive tested positive for c. O. V. But i feel quite well im self isolated at my office where i have everything needed for remote work control and video consultations so we do know that the head of russias hospital of moscows hospital thats treating all the coronavirus cases at this point is still going to continue his work despite the despite being diagnosed with cold vit 19 now like he said bill perhaps the most important part of this was that exactly one week ago dennis pretend co was in touch with Vladimir Putin extensively because the russian president did visit the hospital and while they were inside the unit where the patients are treated of course they have all the uniform for their protection but then. There was a Conference Call with the other parts of the country there were in one room they have an extensive discussion on what has been done and what is planned to be done and this was when the russian president and dr present but were directly in touch like he said they did shake hands they werent Wearing Masks at that point so this is why of course this whole situation sparked concerns as to whether the russian president could have caught some of this but for now all. All this was denied by mr putin spokesperson dmitri peschardt hes saying that there is being regularly tested for on a virus so far the result was negative. A Doomsday Clock has been created to help explain where each country is at in its fight against the virus created at last brisk order of business and economics the graph suggests that the length of a nations outbreak is a pulp for months the u. K. U. S. And most of europe currently live between noon and 3 pm the point when infection is highest iran is now between 3 and 6 pm experiencing high recovery rates and fewer deaths well those between 6 pm and midnight are on the tail end of that help breaks with china currently at 57. 86 minutes well the man behind the clock talked to jonathan seas and told me the u. K. Has yet to reach the point of peak death. This is a very long journey and were about 4 minutes into it. Ive been measuring the journey by looking at the entries into the journey the cases versus the exits the 1st howard t. S. And the recoveries so what we find is you so that between noon and 3 pm we tend to have a lot of turbulence thats when actually the hands of the clock can go forwards and backwards because you can get sudden growth spurts in cases. And then you get the increased recovery fewer deaths from 3 pm to 6 pm or so its not all doom is it because the graph does show that chinas outbreak is almost over and you know theyre almost fish yes kerry and so but we cant guarantee that other countries will stop the virus in the same timeframe. Thats right yet china is about 2 minutes to midnight or noon and other countries like italy are you know sort of quarter past 20 past almost if we look at the china case that heating cases happened about 3 and a half minutes past noon the peak of deaths was about 8 minutes past and the peak of recoveries was about half past in the case of italy. The the peaking cases seems to be about 12 minutes past deaths 14 minutes past and the high recoveries are kicking in now from about 11 minutes past. The u. K.

Robbed pledged to 75000000. 00 pound fund would be made available to help finance chartered flights back to the u. K.

You know its only lucky few of those that managed to get a nice line along this is james davis still thousands knows theyre still struggling with change sometimes menace and. When it seems that coronavirus related myths are continuing to spread alongside the disease or his modern andries puts more viral theories under the microscope are you suffering from information overload lets see bug some myths and get the lowdown we had to separate the facts from the fiction. The virus was made in a lab. One internet rumor states that corona virus was created in a laboratory in china the reality is that many studies show its a natural product of evolution most probably from a wet or life meat markets in china some scientists believe it jumped from populations to humans while others think that it might have passed to us from bats but its certainly not from some science experiment gone wrong. Pets can spread coronavirus the British Veterinary Association says that there is no evidence that pets can spread the virus or come become sick from it its driven from human to human transmission that said the virus can live on surfaces for some time including animal fur so the answer is to follow good hygiene practices and wash your hands. Children can catch it the short answer is that all age groups can become infected but yes most cases so far have been in adults and older people the World Health Organization says that children are not immune and are just as likely to become infected but the symptoms tend to be less severe. The virus can stay dormant for 27 days now theres lots of different online information and opinion about this one the World Health Organization says that the incubation period thats the time between catching the virus and beginning to show symptoms is believed to be between want to 14 days most commonly around 5 days however a case with an incubation period of 27. 00 days was reported by a province local government in china experts suggest that a very long incubation period could reflect a double exposure but on average its 5. 00 days is generally considered to be the strain around 4. 00 to 14. 00 days it can be longer so all of these things if. Theres a brain. Corona virus is the same as saws the virus that causes coated 19 on the one that caused the outbreak of severe. Cute respiratory syndrome all saws in 2003 all related to each other genetically but the disease is all quite different saws was much more deadly but less contagious the covert 19 meaning it was easier to isolate patients stop the spread and bring it under control the slow down for today be safe because and wash your hands. And that is all from all the u. K. Here not among colleagues from auntie america will be taking over at the top from all the team. Micrographs friends arent slights against you know whites or men for example theres theres fights against women or more on nonwhites so its always you know the idea is that statements that directed toward a Privileged Group are interpreted differently than a statement directed toward an oppressed group and so thats kind of the whole framework and its a its a political framework thats used the result is of course focusing at least on certain kinds of minor slights and say well rather than the north and more than we need to call attention to them but its not all slice so its a very political in this context.
