On to stop the spread of illness we discussed so isolation will affect self insure interactions. Being promoted in the name. Is actually the erosion of human contact the human solidarity social isolation is a privilege for those that dont have to either face work in close proximity or die of starvation not an option for several billions of peoples around the world. Hello there good morning welcome to the program has just turned 11 am here in moscow this monday on kevin owen with his 30 minute world news rattled for you and 1st off heres where we are on the numbers as we head into a new week its 4 months now since the 1st infections began to cause concern around the world as of now more than 1800000 cases have been logged and more than 114000 people have died the number of people known to have recovered from covert 19 is now more than 427000. So todays developments 1st to new york the worst affected area in the worlds most affected country the governor of new yorks planning to launch a fund now to support medics but this skepticism back out in from unions who blame him for budget cuts which they say have squeezed resources and left them ill equipped for the pandemic with more on that and the similar struggles elsewhere around the world is a Senior Correspondent were gassed. Isnt is astounding that something super tiny a virus which isnt even technically considered alive has humbled us through all our technology for all our knowledge and hubris amis robots rockets with powerless we have nothing to fight it with but there are those who fly to a godless every day into the jaws of infection or warriors in this life and death battle the incredible doctors and nurses and Health Care Workers on the front line of the fight physios radiograph was pharmacists who kept coming to work kept putting themselves in harms way for years we took what medical professionals did for granted this is a given they didnt get parades all fireworks it took a pandemic for the world to wake up to the service and sacrifices that medics make is a process well the commitment of that i make tonight for Health Care Workers and for the entire nation is that once the crisis is over a massive Investment Plan and an upgrade of career paths will be put in place for our Hospital System we think the federal government should set up a heros Compensation Fund to compensate our health care and other front line workers for what they did here oh theyre thankful now they are on camera he didnt mention how under him and his predecessor they eliminated 20000 hospital beds to cut costs the french president doesnt mention how successive governments tried to skimp on health care for years longer hours few abeds nurses doctors less equipment and less money. Over the world while military budgets explode. That politicians rolled the dice on which hospital to close next and new one can claim that they didnt warn us for her. The end result has been that we dont have enough of anything that we need not beds nor hospitals no ventilators 1st world nations with astronauts in space ascending the nurses to work in trash bags here troll to use one mouse over and over and theyre cruel items over and over to their mouths or if youre given discretion and told to you for the entire week dont applaud politicians they were warned time and time again that this could happen sure it would have been expensive to prepare the turns out it would have been cheaper than doing nothing the world is not prepared for a fast moving global risperidone pandemic that could kill up to 80000000 people devastate economies and create social chaos. And yet those medics that we try to skimp and save money on they cant for us every day in america france or russia these medics do to work every day knowing that theres a serious risk of infection and with the dignity to avoid mentioning that they warned us were unprepared as Health Care System one that was already broken prior to this and is completely destroyed at this point we were unprepared as a country its unfortunate how it everything played out how every person dallas responsible for making sure we were protected so that we could do our work properly and save other people fail to do that they completely let us down they betrayed us every Single Agency every single federal government fell does every Single Person that was there that was supposed to provide us what we needed that was supposed to assist us and give us support during these difficult times so that we could do what we needed to do would be properly if he clique failed to do that we were left alone. To figure it out on our own were going to be damaged as a result of this i dont know what are we going to end up i dont know what were going to look like after this but if were never going to be this a health care is never going to be the same healthcare workers are never going to be the same this is as completely destroyed. Everything that it could. Even. Our trust. Digital permit system here starts rolling out in moscow this monday to try and could tell nonessential travel around the region the mayors also shuttering the majority of nonvolatile enterprises to the break in russia is worsening another road daily record this monday with the 2558 new cases with more than 1300 of them here in moscow the school 5 percent for more screw ups he says could tell as there is so swarming so new restrictions coming into place very soon yeah. Yeah well im just standing opposite the Mayors Office right here in the center of moscow and its located on the main street all the way down to red square and not direction is kind of the equipment of londons Oxford Street paris ashantis a new yorks 5th avenue so usually its obscene jump packed with both cars and people but today you can see there are relatively few cars and almost no pedestrians why well new hotshot knocked down measures have come into effect this monday from now one for an indefinite period of time travel within the city will be regulated by a strict cost system so ill set up all 33. 00 stages to the 1st state of promise for people traveling to and from what the 2nd stage of the trip of other righties and the 5 states watching be to limit movement within your own neighborhood now so far around 780000. 00 parts have already been given out just to give you an idea must the house around 13000000 residents im actually one of those 780000 you can see ive actually got my posse concept but what i can tell you its got my information to stop my name its got the time and mine will last into the 30th of april its got my email address my passport number but the most important thing that has the right to very top is a possible coat not this is the coat its the policeman comes up to me it says can i see your comment that is the code ill give him. Ill check it interests instead and then carefully also let me carry on and ill be trying this with me everywhere i go if im going on a tux if im going on the cheap from walking down the street the only time that i will safely leave that i hope is fun throwing up my rubbish or walking my unfortunate imaginary dog or going to my local shop not this is a significant tightening over the restrictions until now weve just been requested to sit out code but given the recent such in the number of coronavirus cases here in russia the moscow authorities said they were really left with no other option but to impose more stringent measures so the latest count is that ill just tell you that 18000 cases here in russia around 2500 new ones in the last 24 hours and the death toll partly stands out 148 now most of us russias largest city accounts around 2 of cool russian codes it 19 cases not you dont actually need to look at the figures to see that increase just looking around on the streets are noticeably more on kill it says in fact of the 2 recently came out showing a few of confidences waiting to drop top us suspected coronavirus. Patients not to clinics on the outskirts of moscow now on average jane 1300 people have been transported by ambulance as thoughts of life hunted just a week. Now to these new restrictions what to say prove it because unfortunately some people are still refusing to abide by the state otto diakite something the w. H. O. Says is obviously only busting the situation but the good news is is that the positive results of this new process didnt seem to already be showing because according to the op that rates how well the city itself isolates most of comedy its rating at 4. 00 out of 5 thats up from this time last week a 3 point one so it seems that the system is. Beginning to show the positive efforts of people coming together being more disciplined yes the sun is shining yes bring has arrived but its a Health Crisis to people are staying in and theyre doing their part to ensure the health and safety of all their fellow muscovites exactly central moscow the thank you. To the way we personally greet each other could be a bird to change forever as one of americas most prominent experts on Infectious Diseases suggest that we all give handshakes in future the elbow to the popular thing to do here shake in russia its been claimed that stopping the centuries old tradition would not only prevent the spread of coronavirus but also the common cold to. I dont think we should ever shake hands ever again to be honest with you not only would it be good to prevent coronavirus disease it probably would decrease instances of influenza dramatically in this country you know discuss how the pandemic might shape our future with an expert panel and. If it was somehow universally adopted out how big a difference would it make you know a sense what what what was being promoted in the name of health is actually the erosion of human contact and human solidarity and it seems to me that if you begin to medicalize human relationships and contacts into is being suggested it simply makes the divisions and the tension that already exists so much more difficult to bear i think thats something we should very strongly oppose and that is that a lot of people are talking about now and i watch television i see feel very close to each other there are strangers talking to each other or people shaking hands and i guess theyre disgusted i think thats quite unsettling this is a class pandemic that is several billions of poor people around the world crowded in corridors in the worlds megacities theyre forced to do jobs that involve physical contact and close proximity to others they have no other choice social isolation is a privilege for those that dont have to either face work in close proximity or die of starvation in the future after the pandemic is over such things as no longer hand shaking or having those physical contacts not an option for several billions of peoples around the world how easy do you think it will be after being told for so long to move away you know social distancing isolation supermarket rushing how do you expect the public to react when when the measures are lifted as this as the measures begin to recede hopefully we will see ourselves going back i think older forms of social contact think a portion of global humanity is going to be more cautious theres going to be of course the psychological trauma of having emerged from this pandemic but again i see the world from the viewpoint of thats 34b5b that are the most outcast and the most downtrodden and their secondary concern is shaking hands and physical presence and maybe the 1st is that still going to be daily survival in this in stream leon equal global says. I agree that we live in what the pandemic has done is that its created a 2 tier system it made it even more rigid many respects what a pandemic has really done is reinforce trends there already exist in existence in the economy prior to that but it excelled at it it intensified it and in that sense divisions and differences in lifestyle are going to become even more pronounced what happens now are we still helping to be monitored cut it encourage people to test each other to the authorities whats your take is the next stage in exchanging our freedoms for security which is basically to make our private lives negotiable and i never go worried in the way in which does all the stock work governments into using these new outs that will monitor us but it does seem to me that it does give enormous power over to the authorities and my understanding of Human History is that whenever you get all your freedoms the authorities did let us go back to you there is a very potentially quite a quite a difficult situation coming up as far as question of freedom is concerned Britains NationalHealth Service has been ordered to develop a mobile app to help track and trace infections its hoped the technology might allow for a rollback of the strict measures currently in place to hold the spread of corona virus within a matter of weeks the up would allow the tracking of people whove been in contact with those infected with code 90 the system plans to use Bluetooth Technology to then alert those who need to be tested in theory its estimated a 60 percent of the population would need to download it to be effective and that then could allow some to partially return to everyday life while using the system however one frontline nurse told us that there should be better and less intrusive ways to deal with the crisis. No i think that kind of violence peoples human rights and i think people act got their place in society but maybe if i dont really understand the app it does seem quite it sounds quite intrusive in terms of being in mourning turns it seems quite. Intrusive and i and i think there might be Better Solutions to that problem than just put in light tank patients that are going to think you do have the virus. So lockdowns causing a tranquil silence throughout the world it seems Mother Nature is breathing a sigh of relief over it at least the air is clearing a normally polluted cities and wild lives making the most of the nearly deserted streets which people have been sharing online. Through the guest of a beautiful world out there will be waiting for us we will go back out again now what weve got coming up after the break will another aircraft carriers see the coronavirus break up all this time flights to report on it in the news ahead. Yes. Join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and ill be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business im show business ill see you then. Hello good morning the president s of russia and the u. S. Along with the saudi king indorsed on a story deal on sunday the oil cartel opec and other producers have agreed on the largest ever Oil Output Cut its set to see a drop of 9700000. 00 Barrels Per Day which is about 10 percent of the Global Supply kuwaits oil minister says the deal will come into force on by the 1st.

Its so important because it puts so slow on the price of oil this was really the goal of these agreements because as you know markets were a world really a freefall and the stories tribute to these were being filled up to their Maximum Capacity so there was a need for such an agreement or a law if this is a good agreements but more will have to be done perhaps in order to stabilize markets.
