Live from moscow thanks for joining us for the weekly run of top stories here on r. T. International day of hawkins would you tonights welcome to the program. We begin with the latest updates on those covert 900. 00 figures the Global Pandemic is into a new month those confirms coronavirus cases are still soaring now so far some 3 and a half 1000000 there is some hope that 1100000 people have recovered the grim number you can see there fatalities more than 247000. Nearly half of all workers across the globe are at risk of losing their jobs thats the stark warning from u. N. Experts this crisis has been provoked by. Explains why the labor market was already under threat. The jobs of 1600000 people are in jeopardy due to coated 1000 lockdowns around the world hours have been cut incomes have decreased unemployment is rising but the problems did not start with the pandemic for millions of workers knowing come means no food no security and no future millions of businesses around the world are barely breathing they have no savings or access to credit. The International Labor organization points out that roughly half of the Global Workforce has a precarious existence where their livelihoods their access to food and health care and other necessities of life can be cut off at any moment due to problems in the market they often have poor access to Health Care Services and have no income replacement in case of sickness or look down many of them have no possibility to work remotely from home staying home means losing their jobs and without wages they cannot eat 2 to 3300000000 people function within whats referred to as the informal economy they are self employed or they have short Term Contracts their wages have decreased by roughly 60 percent during the 1st month of the pandemic for them the pandemic is not just a time to stay home and relax they have very real fears about how they are going to pay their bills as the International Labor organization predicts massive losses in income are ahead for them in terms of the economic and social effects of this pandemic it discriminates massively and above all that discriminates against those who are at the bottom end of the world before those who dont have protection and those who dont have the sole says those who dont have recourse to the types of things that we regard as you send chills of a normal life not everyone is in the same boat amid the pandemic a new study shows that the 500. 00 plus us billionaires have seen their combined well surge by roughly 282000000000. 00 with 8 of them gaining a 1000000000 dollars each since the beginning of the year meanwhile the weekly jobless claims keep rising and rising with roughly 30000000 of them in the last 6 weeks gallup poll shows that one in 7 americans would avoid seeking medical treatments if they had some key symptoms of coded 19 fever and dry cough because theyre afraid of medical costs. And it gets worse when framed explicitly is believing to have been affected by the Novel Coronavirus 9 percent still report that they would avoid seeking care adults under 30 nonwhites those with a High School Education or less and those in households with incomes under 40000. 00 per year how the groups most likely to indicate they would avoid seeking out cap the crisis in the economy is taking on the identity of its own i would argue and its not just now being driven by whats happening with the virus slowdown it was really quite obvious in the us in advanced economies you could see it in the commodity producing economies especially oil that was already slowing down the price was already decrying you could see it the global trade which was barely growing global g. D. P. That was slowing so you know the process was already underway and it probably would have. Unravelled in a much slower way and clearly though the virus of precipitated in the acceleration of the contraction it clearly does this criminal it is hitting the working class harder and certain segments of the working class even even harder while there may not be many big parades with red flags this may day it seems that the pandemic has made it apparent many of the issues that working class organizations have been trying to highlight for so long it will come up and r. T. New york. The World Health Organization has warned against issuing immunity passport saying theres no solid proof yet that recovering from the disease would prevent a 2nd infection the plans being widely discussed particularly in europe with corporations tourism and us the claiming many agree on the need for a common travel protocol or what he calls a covert passport peeta all of it takes a closer look. The Brandenburg Gate is one of germanys most visited Tourist Attractions but if youre dreaming of seeing it or anything else in the e. U. Any time soon you may well need a special type of passport that says you are new to the coronavirus the Tourism Sector has experienced an immense and unexpected decline in demand due to the outbreak of the corona virus pandemic our mission is to be as members of the European Union and as part of the most successful tourist region in the world leader in the recovery of tourism these m unity passports are just one of a number of ideas being discussed by the new tourism ministers as they try to find ways to mitigate the impact of covert 90 on the holiday industry one particular idea is based on the whole proviso that if youve had covert 19 you cant be prefect it some nations like greece which relies massively on holiday makers spending money there are very much on side with the plan but there is one quite significant hit show experts at the World Health Organization say immunity passports wouldnt be worth the paper theyre printed on at this point there is not enough evidence about the effectiveness of antibody mediated immunity to guarantee the accuracy of an immunity passport or risk free certificate people who assume that they are immune to a 2nd infection made more Public Health advice the use of such difficult me therefore increase the risks of continued transmission in some barolo just so wanting that immunity passports would just be impractical but they could do if we helped to spread the virus further the surge reality for europes Tourism Industry is that without saying a working vaccine the future looks far from bright peter all of us r. T. Here in russia more than 834000 the coronavirus cases have been confirmed to over 10000 were registered in the last. And before i was some 16 and a half 1000 recovered but almost 1300 out for the victim to the virus while shes become the 1st company in russia to conduct stoff screening tests to find out whether their blood plasma contains answer bodies that could indicate if a person has been ill without as well as finding possible plasma donors for those critically ill correspondent was one of those taking the test heres how it went. Everybody who is left at the channel which is not a whole lot of people think life is getting to us interesting to see if we have the antibodies for the crown fires and if we do and if it turns out that we do know later on we could possibly become donors because theres this whole wave of treating people with blood plasma from people who have already had the corona virus and theres been a lot of success for them so want to try that out going to go get one taken which is not my favorite thing to do but were going to cause its all work theyre very. Different turn that look like i must. Say i. Dont want to. Be the leader. Of the you. Know the. Right and then. So when the results come in if it turns out that i have somehow become a virus and didnt know what i do have the antibodies and the contacts we and i can become a donor which would be really nice to feel like you can help people you know because right now based on whats going on that its really difficult to. Understand how to go. Without contacting me and being in contact with other people but this could be a really great way to do it so fingers crossed and its not really there for thing is very telling everybody whos here that you will today and maybe one of them will become i dont or and be able to help people who are really really suffering right now. So far we can say with absolute confidence that antibodies create a long lasting and strong immune system but what we can say is the doctors and specialists hope that antibodies provide the immune system with enough strength to prevent getting infected the 2nd time the testament of bodies is important because theres a number of professionals such as doctors journalists or Police Officers who have to work with patients and those potentially infected and then 2 bodies can be found in the blood of victims both with or without symptoms. Friday marked labor day in many parts of the world over in france the covert months in lockdown meant demonstrations were restricted to balconies or on line this year some did out on the side of protests but the Police Stepped in quickly all frauds correspondent shot of ski looks back at them a day you might be more familiar with in paris if it werent for locked up. Maybe the 1st scene is being the traditional day rally by unions here in france now normally here tens of thousands of people would be gathering ready to march for workers rights. In recent years the big protests have been hijacked and they have descended into chaos now i was here back in 2018 in the may day when i still what has been some of the worst violence i have ever seen in france and it started only street basically when people began to protest at full bombs at this Fast Food Restaurant and then going inside to complete the project. Claiming to be the work of the socalled a black blogs these are all the far left and the case by much of destruction continue down this street smashing windows until they got here where they burned vehicles outside the shop that released a huge plume of smoke into the air that burnt it felt like for at least an hour releasing potentially dangerous toxins into the air and putting the people who live in this building out race. Not. As covert 19 has been an end to a wave of protests in france but at least out on the streets instead unions of calls for people to take to have balconies and to all in the spirit but with the friendship pent up inside and having no way to really vent their anger frustration against the government perhaps Global Economy or even the environment there is real concern that when the confinement starts to eat. The 11th radical groups will have something up their sleeves groups on social media have been calling for people to get ready for a new spate of action our own goal will not be confined was the slogan that i saw on one poster now these calls on social media already being tracked by the Intelligence Services who fear that violence will be used to seize public attention very active rights and ultra left networks have to prepare a number of attacks police also see the calls on social media as being an opportunity to display their hostility towards the police one militant site describes offices as being a greater threat than the virus itself and during the lockdown there has already been issues where the police have been accused of brutality particularly towards ethnic groups in the parisians suburbs that lead to nights of violence. While the look done for the most part has been peaceful be observed there is a real fear that france has become a bit of a Pressure Cooker and not anger towards the government hasnt gone away instead its building up in some boiling away when people are released paris and in other cities they could have open revolt on their hands. R. T. Paris. Brought however did break out in germany with some defying a ban on public gatherings the protests were against social distancing rules which were implemented back in march 5000 by. Deployed in the capital and several arrests made. In chile this iteration was more tense several dozen protesters were detained for violating lockdown rules according to reports one of those upper hand had tested positive for covert 19 and was meant to be quarantined for another 10 days police was ordered to want to come out of this protest. As the fight against corona virus Takes Center Stage in the u. K. And experts warn of a rise in cancer related deaths more details after the break. So. Theres 2 kinds of leadership crisis leadership and non crisis leadership in the. Noncrisis leadership when things are stable and theres peace and prosperity in the past produce the future and you just asked me to im a mentally healthy person is no better. But. When you need creativity and risk taking and a different way of thinking those mentally healthy meters im sure are not as good as the rest. Good to have you back. Support in the battling the coronavirus cancer in england could claim thousands of additional lives through to a lack of a dog gnostics treatment thats according to new research by University CollegeLondon Health they threw up starting from shoes they will restore Vital Services including cancer which has mostly been put on hold during the pandemic. Reports. Britain could soon face another Health Care Crisis not corona virus but a consequence of it scientists predict 18000 more people in the u. K. Could die of cancer in the next year deaths from new cases in england could rise by a 5th of one expert has a grim prognosis about the overall number of deaths caused by the disruption of Cancer Services during the pandemic this is likely to outweigh the number of deaths from the corona virus itself over the next 5 years Cancer Treatment in hospitals has been put on hold to make room for covert 19 patients last month attendance for chemotherapy dropped by as much as 60 percent and cancer referrals by doctors are 76 percent lower but its not just treatments that have been affected an n. H. S. England survey found 10 percent of the public wouldnt seek help at all during the pandemic if they suspected they had cancer as experts fear people arent coming forward Cancer Treatment hasnt stopped but we have seen a big reduction in the number of people coming forward and wed like to reverse that because the system is open for Business Experts also warn other in direct death such as heart attacks could mean a total exceeding those of the virus itself while the National Health service also faces a backlog of procedures that could cost 3000000000. 00 pounds to work through after cancelling 2000000 operations i think that it will take us many years to get back to a good position we need more of greater theatre facilities we need more birds we have to keep the independent sector go when we may need to rely on keeping some of the nightingale hospitals open so far over 26000 people in the u. K. Have died from coronavirus but want to stay Health Secretary matt hancock revealed urgent n. H. S.

K. s permanent hospitals free while the message for people who suspects they have cancer is still the same go and see your doctor we have got the facilities to treat people cancer can be a much bigger danger than coronavirus and wed much rather see people with cancer is at an early stage the effect of coronavirus in the u. K. Cannot just be measured on a daily death tolls theres also the a measurable cost in terms of where weve met and social and Economic Hardship but with the peak of the pandemic only just here the long term effects on the u. K. s health could yet be worse hate partridge r. T. Loved. To spoke to her old sykora on colleges than the dean of medicine at the university of buckingham in the u. K. He stressed the importance of starting to prioritize those in need of urgent treatment. 1st of all people stay away because theyre frightened stay home protect the n. H. S. Save lives thats been the slogan for the last month theyre petrified to go to the people that would get them into the diagnostic pathway operating theatres have been idle for the last month everythings been on risk risp or a tree control their until age a sweet scan intensive care and so on so weve got a whole cohort of Cancer Patients from april that havent been diagnosed yet theyre going to be diagnosed hopefully in may were moving round to that now and then theyll come on the last 2 or 3 months worth of patients all need surgery radiotherapy chemotherapy so prioritizing them getting through the system is really the key. With the World Health Organization warning but the worst of coronavirus may yet be to come from africa some countries on the continent are taking a novel approach the stopping the spread arties morag as the report on the surface africa appears to have escaped the worst of it but thats on the surface and already Health Care Systems at the colonies are crumbling at the same town while were dealing with govan night eat pandemic were also on the break of a hunger pandemic for the crawler virus even became an issue i was saying that 2020 would be facing the worst humanitarian crisis as war 2 were competing with the developed world the very future of the continent will depend on how this matter is handled. It is getting competitive rich nations are buying up mosques and gloves and ventilators this quickly as theyre produced leaving poorer nations with nothing International Aid be it food or medicine or money is slowing to a trickle even the w. H. Who is warning that things could get very ugly qubit in africa could kill 300000 and forced millions into starvation it all depends on what we are discussing here which is are you testing are you finding the cases or you isolating and tracking the contacts the w. H. O. Report is not a prediction that means it must happen how is africa supposed to deal with a pandemic that is bored america to its knees especially without being able to print dollars in euros without foreign aid without advanced Healthcare Systems and the millions of africans western advice to self isolate and work from home is something out of a fantasy in and i dont have a source of income my normal work is to try and do peoples laundry but its been impossible to find work these days because of the fear of this disease grave conduct as men and women they are locking in markets marketwired cars so these people us 400 but they walk on the mouth every crime will go up in slums because now. These people the country. We live in now in a low income area i dont have quite high at home so that has impacted mine i think it is because now we have to catch up in academics missing out in a lot of speeches in terms of cost but because they have been dismissed at an early period of time millions have no access to the internet to read wouldnt in the explanation what they have a rich imaginations b. Its graffiti informing people that the virus isnt a. Inspirit see placed in slums where poverty and misinformation a rife be it music the Legendary South African song patter pat has been rewritten and re recorded with antiviral lyrics and is being aired by more than a dozen african review stations. Its no surprise that on a continent where funerals can involve song and dance that music is on the front lines in the fight against who would 98. 00 africa is being left to fend for itself charity has become a luxury no one expects a miraculous International Rescue so the continent does what it can at least it fights the virus on its own terms. Lockdown can be a real strain on the body and mind but for those in need of daily assistance its been devastating for essential routines some people are stepping up the road though in their time of need take arena whos volunteered to be with mina from a Residential Care home. And spoke to them about their locked out experience together. Yes exactly how is your life youre going to now be and im just helping. You dont you want to go back to hospital. You know definitely not as i didnt like you and will try here in the only day i was told and hes now doing the foreign trips why should i want to watch a movie i do i didnt say. When the that just moved in she said that at the beginning of the year she had one dream to meet football players. Because before the korean team i said i want to meet russian sub players and the dream came true. And then quantize she said she had another dream to move away from the Residential Care somewhere and the 2nd dream came true and. Actually. The reason i have not left the apartment for weeks and ive been spending the time cooking dot say and celebrating a birthday together or even told us earlier why she decided to isolate with mina and what i have good deed is becoming a growing trend in russia. Dr kulacz and also. Quarantine and Residential Care didnt look so secure people cant leave because a lot is cant come in but the permanent workers just do their salaries im also obeys orders so most use Public Transit went but in Residential Care such a close place if someones in fact that will be a tragedy as long as ive known enough shes always been a very optimistic person told my questions she has always answered that everythings great but after Residential Care it was close to where i started to receive all the messages that shes bored she feels bad but not comfortable so i thought to ask nina to live with me taking into account all our messages i knew that he would find a way to live together comfortably and could learn to but of course taking people from Residential Care to quarantine is not a solution for everyone and yourself as far as i know just around 400 people since the beginning of the pandemic have been taken from such Residential Care home.
