Hello there its nice to have you company this evening youre watching r. T. International its just gone 7 here in moscow now lets start with some of the latest figures because the confirmed cases of my past 2200000 more than 156000 people have died from the virus most of those fatalities are in europe and the u. S. So far just over 583000 patients have recovered from the disease. Well the corona Virus Outbreak in germany appears to be under control after a month long lockdown according to the countrys Health Minister germany has a much lower death rate than other major European Countries and restrictions on movements are being partially lifted with some shops reopening is the next week said Government Spokesperson has stressed caution is neat. Skipped. The state in fits there are no guarantees that the infection kovel keep flattening out there also risks and when we take these small careful steps into opening up we must keep an eye on the infection curve and what it means for our Health System and our hospitals as in many countries germany shut down has devastated the hospitality sector interests in here restaurant workers set out empty tables and chairs on the Central Square to highlight the crisis they are dealing with and the munich people held a safe distance demonstration calling the lockdown disproportionate or most of the population is staying safe refugees they were in shelters are at much higher risk as peter oliver now reports. As germany gets set to ease coronavirus restrictions not everywhere in the country has been successful in stopping the spread of the virus some Refugee Centers have seen a spike in the number of cases at one in the south of the country almost half of the 600 residents tested positive this week do you feel mood and isolation we suspect that maybe people with kobe 19 whove been in the facility for a long time and then they show no symptoms of the disease and that they could have passed on the virus the facility in but involved in bird houses people from nigeria iraq syria and turkey who are waiting to have their asylum applications process the action taken by authorities to this localized outbreak is causing concern theyre seeing these people as a kind of threat and danger it seems to be an acceptable strategy to pack the Police Outside and make sure nobody comes in and nobody comes out its another center not far from frankfurt theres a similar picture with around 60 residents testing positive out of 170. 00 in the far northeast of the country the Refugee Council of mecklenburg West Pomerania has voiced some serious concerns. About an Asylum Application Center on their patch. Bad the required minimum distance of 1. 5 to 2 meters cannot be maintained this is added and anyone who recklessly last people leave in a mass accommodation in this situation their Health Authorities in the region which just so happens to be represented in the border start by chancellor Angela Merkel have been quick to rubbish criticism of the way coronavirus is being tackled among asylum applications in coordination with the Health Authorities every effort is being made to prevent the spread of infection within the countrys primary care facilities and in communal accommodation in the current emergency situation Infection Control for Asylum Seekers and the population is a priority that comes as berlin is quite rightly being praised for having tackled coronavirus nationally in a robust and fact based way on friday Health Minister yen spawn described the situation in germany as under control. We have moments to bring the Dynamic Growth back to linear growth the infection numbers have decreased significantly its been she was relatively increases from day to day the outbreak has now become manageable uncontrollable again ultimately what these localized outbreaks in asylum said to show is that if you drop your guard for just a moment when it comes to fighting or trying to stop the spread of this virus then it will be exploited peter all of our r. T. Berlin. President now says that he expects between 60. 65 americans to die of covert 19 that is substantially less than his previous estimate of 100000 the president claims the countrys infection rate has now paid and hes revealed plans to you to gradually ease the lock down 20 chavez has more. White house pushing to get the economy moving again our approach outlines 3 phases in restoring our Economic Life we are not opening all at once but one careful step at a time issuing new guidelines to get the country up and running the 1st phase officials must see a 2 week decline in the number of people with covert symptoms and the percentage of people testing positive for the virus must also decrease than face to allowing all nonessential travel School Activities and elective surgeries to continue some states will be able to open up sooner than others. But hard hit new york and new jersey have to wait the state continues to see an increase in covert cases new York Governor Andrew Cuomo extending stay at home orders he calls new york pause until may 15th but it could be longer what is the final conclusion of this our great chapter i still believe it when we have a vaccine with more than 226000 infections and more than 16000 deaths in new york is still seeing around 2000 new cases a day city remaining the epicenter of the outbreak officials working to open testing sites in the citys poorest and hardest hit communities so were talking about folks in some of the lowest income communities in the city people in communities of color that have borne the brunt of this crisis immigrant communities while Governor Cuomo is issuing an executive order directing all public and private labs in new york to coordinate with the department of health to ensure prioritizing of diagnostic testing he says thats still not enough to test the millions of people needed to reopen new yorks economy we dont have a testing system that can do this or there can be ramped up to do this von. We dont have a Public Health casting system by the way its de minimis if you look at what our Government Departments of health have we need a clean. Or did it approach between the federal government and the states right now the main testing lab for the state can perform about 300 antibody tests per day while officials believe they can grow that number to 2000 test a day in the coming weeks with nearly 20000000 residents in new york the governor says the state needs all the help they can get from the federal government. Meanwhile u. S. Politicians continue to blame china for the pandemic and the republican senator Lindsey Graham has suggested that washington should punish benching with sanctions. The largest state sponsor of pandemics this is the 3rd or 4th pandemic that came out of china what should we do to the largest state sponsor of pandemics on the globe which is saying china. Well since the coronavirus a paid in december numerous conspiracy theories have thought that the internet and i think it was an idea that the virus was created in a bio weapons ban has gained widespread coverage in the u. S. Media and donald trump and his administration have been more than willing to few the speculation. That a lot of people are looking seems that make sense they talk about a certain kind of bet but that was it in that area if you can believe this is what theyre doing to know is vets but that is not in that area that bat was in seoul that went zone it wasnt sold there that bat is 40 miles away so a lot of strange things are happening but there is a lot of investigation going on and were going to find out if we know they have this lab we know about the wet markets we know that the virus itself did originate in so all those things come together are still a lot we dont know. A member of the white has Coronavirus Task forces debunked though the theory of the virus being created in a lab and she was leading he was a leading expert on Infectious Diseases said that the pattern of mutation shows the virus jumps directly from an animal to be human meanwhile china has the us to stop making claims with no scientific basis. Fishel soap repeatedly stated that there is any evidence that you corona virus was produced no tree many well known medical experts in the world also believe the socalled liberal elite hypothesis has no scientific basis the British Foreign secretary has echoed the young teacher china rhetoric coming from washington dominic rampage said that there can be no business as usual with beijing after this crisis and that hard questions do need to be asked about how the outbreak started journalist daniel is r. T. Believes the blame game being led by donald trump is merely a way of deflecting responsibility. Clearly what were seeing here are the charges that are political in nature i mean trump has mishandled this whole crisis so its inevitable. America has got a few cases having more cases than any other country in the world in a matter of 2 months and trump has been contradictory have parted in effect war saying one thing one moment and another thing another moment so this crisis began so clearly trying to strike out and distract attention from his own theres more record. By attacking china thats just plain as the evidence so far is that the the the allegations that theyre really d fighting an uphill battle they have nothing to go on religious based on pure anti chinese still. Now millions of Orthodox Christians around the. Celebrating easter today and a much anticipated ceremony has taken place in jerusalem earlier on saturday the holy fire was lit the church of the holy suppose that event happens each year inside a chapel in the center of the church which orthodox believers do consider to be the 2 of christ traditionally thousands of pilgrims to travel to jerusalem to light candles from the flame that isnt happening here over the holy fire is now on its way to the Orthodox Christian nations of greece before making its way to russia for asli as more. Holy fire has always been a symbol of hope hope that the end of the world has not yet come but this easter the most significant religious holiday for some 300000000 people things are different this easter is different we will not go to our villages we will not barbecue in our yards we will not go to our churches and of course we will not gather in the homes of relatives and friends for us to continue bringing together this year we stay apart there are no good fido positions no had examined kisses no joyous celebrations that christ has risen this is the main church where the miracle takes place but it is closed as part of a nationwide lockdown its all part of the governments attempt to push back on the coronavirus and as a result as has banned all messed gatherings something that has the countrys Ultra Orthodox Jewish community up in arms. I remember when i was. All across the world churches urge people to pray and stay at home some churches even live streamed through social media other Christian Communities celebrated easter 7 days ago with pope francis praying alone in st Peters Square many Christian Churches urged pogroms to spend this holy day at home. Now russia has registered movement 4700 coronavirus cases in the past 24 hours that is the highest single day increase so far and the death toll to stand 313 well here in moscow the mayor has updated a digital past system which had some glitches here in the week although it is now automated its us he explains. 15th of april new measures which is used here in the capital which is suffering the brunt of the creative virus in russia essentially has been out of chasses which means that you need a passport everything specially to travel to and from what now the must commit today announced that passes do will be extended until the 1st of mange he did also admit that the imposing of the past is jim didnt have its steve thing issues at the very beginning. So the main issue that we sold out was the time that was needed for sorties to visit to check each and every part of it which is why as part of the new match starting from the next wednesday the 22nd of april everything will now be done and in china automatically so here in moscow theres a cost to detroit cut that he used to travel on the metro from next wednesday you have to link your travel permit to that card so essentially if you dont do that and put your car down and try to get what the bar has just went open and be allowed to travel through we also saw a build up of cars especially in the size 24 hours of process dont was introduced we had stories of people waiting for up to several hours as authorities very diligently checks through all that documents that also is going to be made much more efficient because now cameras will be checking in scanning which cars have the white house and which tote now us against atlanta nuts the most magic you recognize of course this is not one for one. Nation it is causing quite natural and psychological distress to a lot of people but that it is necessary and that it is bringing results so in that mix he said that while the numbers of rising in russia that are actually not growing exponentially d and he actually to pad moscow to new york because that cities are roughly the same population and he said this so thought here in russia managed to avoid the development of that american its. Norie. There there in that fetus out of the u. N. Hes warning that Economic Hardship of course by nationwide shutdowns could actually cost more lives than the coronavirus itself would have been while i was talking about. The world is driven by shaped by one person. Who dares thinks. We dare to ask. Im not for decapitating anybody but i am for to capitalizing all the wall street bankers by shifting the center of gravity of money from the dollar and fear to bitcoin and thats perfectly within our purview into our scope as the global citizens who wish Justice Justice truth free competition and hard money thats the only justice stud matters thats just staying up all thats real that doesnt rely on politicians. Again you without a now economists are making diet predictions for the long to impact of the pandemic according to the International Monetary fund the us will suffer its worst recession since the Great Depression and as for china the impact is already hitting its economy hard. Im sure we can see that a sudden attack of code 19 has indeed had a pretty big impact on the Economic Performance of our country in the 1st quarter Major Economic indicators clearly declined but we must also see that in march those indicators showed signs of a rebound and the decline has been reduced the Oxford EconomicsResearch Firm is predicting a global recession in the 1st half of 2020 far worse than the last financial crisis of 2008 they are saying that global output will contract by 7 percent and china is facing a 12 percent downturn and im sure commentator Charlie Boyle believes the impact will be long lasting. Most of the economies around the world will have recovered from initial shock but people have to understand. Their economy but its not going to be the same its after theres going to be a permanent loss and destruction of that economic productivity. Because people they should be doing nothing for 2 or 3 months economically its going to tell us you are i think this is a global problem pretty much everyones got the same issue but if you remember what happened before we came into this crisis we already have large levels of debt in the world and. This is our its a direct result and in my opinion on the back of years of austerity never really got over 3 dimensional crisis in 2008 so this is a really Good Opportunity to try and make our entire system a lock for a start i think it will get the people to our state and pretty much every country were going to have to again increase the deficit and the debt future generations are going to have to pay. In while the head of the Uns World Food Program has warned that the economic shock of the kobe 1000 pandemic could in some countries actually be far deadlier than the virus itself he says at least 30000000 people are at risk of dying of starvation if critical funding is cut from quarter reports. As the worlds battle with the coronavirus rages on one has to wonder what will happen when the smoke clears tens of millions of people are already dependent on the Uns World Food Program for meals if that were to lose funding all of those people would be threatened with starvation if we lost our funding a minimum of 30000000. 00 would die over a 3 month period that would be 300000 people dying per day thats why leaders have got to balance out the response with keeping the economy going because otherwise a lot more people will die from starvation and economic deterioration than from code. It itself even before the pandemic the world had a serious food crisis on its hands the World Economic forum says that over 820000000 people were going to bed hungry now Many Organizations are indicating that the situation can get much much worse we fully agree with lowering the 1st us to be on the measures that they can place the board but we also believe the state will go pulled the value chain. To be able to have pulled out by low for consumers to move the potential risk over on the north point of course its a crisis of the International Markets under the lockdown the very supply chains of transnational corporations are breaking apart food cant be processed delivered all received between countries within countries everywhere for the developing world that means famine could be just around the corner especially now that humanitarian relief is also being obstructed by the lockdowns widespread poverty a reliance on imported food and rising prices are all a recipe for disaster according to the United Nations for the millions living in lockdown countries that fit that criteria is running out across africa clashes between hungry people in the police are already taking place was. The many governments of the developing world are struggling with a terrible dilemma see their people die from the coronavirus or see them die from starvation while in the developed of the main die lemma is containing the corona virus through look downs and then dealing with the Economic Impact in the developing world apart from containing the virus and dealing with the economic crisis the biggest worry now is people dying of hunger that doesnt mean the journey from farm to plate isnt obstructed in the developed world in the United States dairy farms are dumping thousands of gallons of. Milk a day because they cant be sold at the same time retailers are fearing a shortage of milk and theyre limiting the amount that consumers can buy as for fruits and vegetables 5000000000. 00 worth had been wasted for the same reason one of americas largest pork processing plants has even been closed because of the virus the closure of this facility combined with a growing list of all the protein plants that have shifted across industry is pushing a country perilously close to the edge in terms of all meat supply and it is impossible to keep all Grocery Stores stalked if not running the chaos of the free market is rearing its ugly head in more ways than just one week by week millions more are flocking to unemployment lines and food banks the early indicators of a global food crisis are there before our very eyes we should ask ourselves how much farther can the global Food Supply Chain bend before it breaks dont go to that well we spoke to a senior economist at the uns food and Agriculture Organization he told us the crisis does need a concerted international response. Than people who stay home and workers or stay home does obviously create disruptions to. Value chain for food no food gets harvested then it has to be processed then it has to be put on the shelves obviously there may be disruptions in this in this line because of the lockdown and because of the fact that people are literally Seasonal Workers cannot probably move around from one place to another so that is want to the problem and the other sort of problem is that not of people especially poor people if they dont go to work they dont have any dont have the money they cannot buy the pool were talking about also countries where man nutrition already is huge government would need to have you know finances of safety net to be able to reach these people and to make sure that they have to be the mom who is really needed the problem is these countries cannot afford it so they need help they need support and the help has to come from the richer countries if the richer countries today are very much engaged of course for their own people the message from the f. A. Always do not forget the poor ones because its a problem is not resolved locally you will come back and haunt everybody again. A quick look at some other news now occurring from the International Space station have returned to find a very different situation to when they left a team of u. S. And russian members landed safely in kazakstan after spending more than 200 days in orbit as a precaution against covenanting they were greeted by a chain that had spent a month on the medical observation however amid the global lockdown the space travelers could find it a bit typical winching their homes one cosmonaut does need to get to moscow and 2 astronauts there the need to get back to houston in texas elsewhere residents of 100 neighborhood have found a new way of communicating at the same time each evening they things that back home to their balconies in waves. Each other 2 friends came up with the idea because they lived on the same street but were unable to leave their homes and the idea has been caught on spain has lost 20000 lives to the corona virus making it the worst hit country in europe and the hospital in jakarta has seen medical robots assisting Frontline Health workers there each row boat can deliver medicine to patients rooms allowing doctors and nurses to keep a safe distance indonesia has over 5000 confirmed cases of cope with 19 with almost 500 deaths so about to bring you up to date for now you can keep across all 8 subelements on our social media pages and you tube channel will be back with more on the headlines in our. Show seemed wrong. But all. Just all. Yet to shape out this day become educated and in detroit equals betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. I. Think im. Going. To. Get. A. Plane has changed american lives but pharmaceutical companies have a miraculous solution. Based drugs for the people who are chronic pain and believe that their opioid prescription is working for them and the remedy be said to. Price that they pay closer dependency in addiction to opiates to long term use that really isnt scientifically justified and ill study actually suggested that the long term effects might not just be absence of benefit but actually that they might be causing long term. The world is driven by shaped by phone person or those. In the day or thinks. We dare to ask. Oh max kaiser this is the kaiser report the response has been overwhelming people are demanding for staceys pro way kaiser report and you know as we continue with the lockdowns and the bailouts because of the lot downs from the coronavirus couvade 19 pandemic situation sweeping the world fairness is what justice really is and that was a quote from Potter Stewart who was a Supreme Court justice member Sandra Day Oconnor took over for him afterward fairness is what justice really is so as we look at these bailouts and the lack of fairness that weve seen. Since the intervention of the fed days so say in 1907 when the plunge Protection Team and Alan Greenspan came to the rescue the bad bets made on wall street chicago. And ever since and weve had more and more and more unfair system it starts off a little bit unfair and as we see like a little change of direction way back then in history becomes a huge gap we see that with the wealth and income gaps and we see that with every single crash and the subsequent bailouts gets worse and worse towards the very wealthy
