A controversial treatment for covert 19 as a French Health care workers continue to rail against the governments efforts. And half a 1000000000 people could be pushed to poverty by the pandemic according to a leading british humanitarian Charity Oxfam. Hello good afternoon this is Art International live from moscow welcome to the program is just 1 pm here this saturday im kevin 0 in with its 30 minute world news round up 1st lets start with the latest figures on the covert 1000 pandemic then surely the number of cases around the world is still on the rise with almost 1700000 people now infected another grim milestone has been reached to more than 103000 have succumbed to the corona virus but its also know that at least 381000 people have recovered. Developments to brief you on the rush here is set to carry out Clinical Trials of a vaccine against covert 19 initially on 60 volunteers the countrys registered over 100 deaths of more than 13000 infections meanwhile the mayor of moscows announce that the city will gradually rolo to pass a system designed to tighten control of a Peoples Movement is set to come into force here on monday this q. Of ambulances was seen waiting to transfer patients to one hospital in moscow thats been repurposed now to focus on coronavirus patients the number of admissions has doubled there since last week more than 85 percent of the patients have whats described as pneumonia the Authorities Say the peak is still to come under ramping up restrictions in the capital with more on that side of it 1st jacqueline booga. Late on friday evening it was announced that there is going to be a new system of tasks is to be used in the russian capital and that was announced on the moscow mayors web site where he said that it was a question of the health and the state of all the People Living in moscow because the situation has only gotten worse recently that he was really left with no choice but to implement this which there has been they didnt aggressive towards a virtual call since the beginning of this week that the situation with the corona virus has been worsening previously hospitals has been receiving 500 patients daily now the number has surpassed 1000 a past regime inside the city is an inevitable restriction which will be implemented gradually. Now over the past few days there really has been a sharp increase in new cases in the russian capital almost every day has seen about 1500 cases and just on friday there was almost 2000 along with 18 deaths as well now another announcement that we heard for the next week there will be further restrictions on businesses in moscow and all but the most essential ones will be shut for the week and that could possibly be extended. Ridhima menadue as well as more most of moscows organizations and enterprises will temporarily stop working for a week with the possibility to prolong it only essential enterprises will keep operating with. The new go in there its just those people who work at those essential businesses wholl be the 1st ones affected by in seeing how this past system works because the 1st stage thats being pulled out will be passive giving to people in order for them to get to their places of business the 2nd round whenever that is released will be for other trips around the city and the 3rd if necessary will actually be passes for people to leave their houses at all in order to move around their neighborhood to go to the local store or their pharmacy or anything like that and of course thats something weve seen and a number of European Countries but it does seem like the moscow thirtys do want to avoid that situation but are prepared to do it if necessary and the governor of the wider Moscow Region has put up a warning to that effect starting from monday we will actually increase the number of policeman National Guard and Traffic Police who will stop people to ask them why they are outdoors thats why im asking you to stay home and take seriously all the precautions we are facing now to prevent the spread of the virus that increased Police Presence that he was referring to really does seem necessary at this point because i can tell you even looking out my own windows on my balcony i can still see quite a bit of activity people just out with their kids walking and lots of cars still are on the street so its really hard at this point to say that people are following the restrictions that are already in place and that all started back on march the 28th president putin came out and said that he was announcing a week off work where people would still be paid but they would not be going to work and that has actually been extended until the end of april those are all businesses where it was possible to not actually physically go to work and of course on the 30th of march. Moscows mayor put out restrictions saying that people should only leave their houses in the event of a medical emergency if they have no choice but to go to work and to go to their local shops and pharmacies but like i said it really doesnt feel like people are following those restrictions and that is something that the moscow mayor commented on saying that that was one of the reason that this past system is being rolled out so hopefully this is enough at this point for people to really listen and stay inside mascolo force majeure just over 400 self isolation violations at least 26 people have been hit with fines previously offices fine violate his who had the virus or who were suspected of having it he goes down often expends a day with Moscow Police. People are only allowed to leave their homes to go get groceries in the nearest supermarket to get medical help or to walk their pets within a 100 metre radius from their homes so right now i will be joining the Moscow Police force who are right now on the beat to see how they are dealing with those who have world fall into the temptation on this perfect summer like day. Isolation rules. Unless its absolutely necessary please do not leave your homes take care of your health and the health of your family when you make. You should love people were all different. People dont even argue they see yeah yeah we understand everything and just go into the shop and back to the farm some. People really understand that we have to conduct this patrol there are considerably fewer people around as you can see everywhere. Russian tech giant yandex has recently rolled out a self isolation rating for cities more school has been graded a solid 3 out of 5 a good but still far from perfect score so i asked police if theyre going to switch from words to action fines. Issuing a fine as a last resort measure at the forefront of self isolation is prevention so were just asking people to follow suit and many people are listening to this while one group that simply cant stay home the police even worse talking to underage of people every day now is literally their job description. First picture they rush are over in the United States the countrys registered the Worlds Largest number of deaths in a single day more than 2000 died there on friday bringing the countrys total to almost 19000 among efforts to try to cope.

I mean if you sent over if you sent over if you sent out im we see colleagues out from different parts of the world giving you all every day and night i grew up in nigeria was born and raised and also trained and i experienced the polar people up here but disses crazier than what i thought of every magic the change of experience to be despondent me to speed is that feeling of helplessness sometimes like the fact that you dont all you can do and use to get the negative all come from is in my personal experience he was i would say moderate some dont i was quarantined for more than 7 days at least 7 days and it was scary the major part of this experience was here and we would have seen in the hospital and with the cases ive seen seen young people die from this you know i think there was a very large component of fear for me because that too is you can go you can get better or you could go to the i. C. U. Again to beat it up probably die from this and i was the fear part but i know im im a man of feet so i as much as possible just try to put things through gods and i go healed.

Elsewhere the french president s been Meeting Health professionals to hear firsthand what its like tackling coronavirus even though many are happy at the governments response but one of the encounters really raised eyebrows explains next as the race is on to find some way to bring coated 19 to its knees it seems the french president isnt leaving any stone unturned emanuel might call spent a day even sitting medical staff although some may have been a little surprised to learn that on his list was professor did you know. Who is the head of the i h you made it an Infection Institute in say and some of his ideas about 19 have raised eyebrows i am a practitioner and doctor and im shocked to see this survey that says that only 37 percent of doctors in the whole world prescribe hydroxy torak when in from the amount of people who prescribe it without saying anything hes huge. He claimed following a small study that chloroquine a malaria drug was the cure and should be used immediately even one of stateside in donald trump is a real could have a tremendous impact would be a gift from god if that were those claims caused controversy among the medical community here in france there were criticisms that his trials were choose small too fast to be meaningful and concern about potentially dangerous side effects for those with heart problems but it seems that most people in france believe that has tapped into an effective treatment one poll found that 59 percent of people in france believe that cleric when was the miracle cure row has gone even further since then organizing for mass testing of the virus at his clinic define official policy that was struck such experiments to those symptoms people queued outside his hospital this point being looked down the french government later caved in and the creed that the drug could be prescribed but questions and now being asked if this visit by president back on has only added fuel to the hype over what remains without a full series of Clinical Trials and proven treatment. The message that president macron has sent in is one of support which is due to mental to the Scientific Community professor all certainly has an interest in personality but one doesnt heal but personality. Visit of more than 3 hours was in private but as being splashed across the front page news his advisors say. It wasnt an indorsement but rather intended to show that the president is listening to wind suite of scientific opinion but this visit came before the results of Clinical Trials which are underway do you to be released and some suggest that this is more about macro bowing to popular pressure or perhaps even politicizing the issue i am a bit surprised by the president s visit to professor old because its a little unexpected to endorse this treatment while we are still awaiting a real double blind study with a control group it is starting to become showbiz politics which is not good though general opinion polls have surged in support from my corner as the pandemic has unfolded it seems amongst the medical Community Medical staff the president is not a pretty popular one michael was inside chatting to right outside nursing staff while letting him know what they thought.
