Below thanks the company this friday afternoon here. In moscow is kevin and with you for the next 30 minutes with the latest round up of the latest covert 900. Dollars and other milestone the number of infections globally is now close to 4000000 in terms of fatalities more than 271000 people are known to have died many more are also recovering too though from the illness of course that figure currently stands at over 1300000. 00. Russias Health Ministry says more than 1200 coronavirus patients are currently on ventilation nationwide the country currently ranks 5th in the world in terms of infections are over 187000 the daily rates have been rising rapidly Health Officials though say there are enough beds and are enough ventilators putting people on a ventilator is a last resort measure for doctors it means its become all but impossible for the patient to breathe unaided leaving many gravely ill in some countries up to 80 percent of patients needing ventilation do not survive here in russia the figure is 50 percent meaning one in every to lose their lives when someone does recover enough to come off ventilation it can be an emotional time for the hospital staff. And other supplies sometimes we the doctor started to cry when the managed to get a piece you know flung into the emotions are impossible to convey sometimes you have tears on your of these masks we dont hide or tears and emotions i believe there is Nothing Better than this feeling. Coming off until ation treatment is only part of the long journey then back to good health some patients need rehabilitation for breathing for swallowing even walking one survivor told us about his recovery and what its like to have a machine in control of your breathing. I was put on a ventilator in the 3rd hospital in a row i was admitted to being in intensive care already after a prolonged fever the doctors found out that my lung capacity was not enough to continue effective treatment waking up on a ventilator was a very unusual feeling as if i had been underwater i had a lot of tube sticking out of my mouth the machine was breathing for me i communicated with the medics by gestures and hand written messages on a sheet of paper it was rather inconvenient for me given that i had lost a lot of energy and even writing down simple sentences was at 1st very hard and unfamiliar but as time passed i got used to it the doctor started to understand me i gradually got used to the tubes the machine and the need to lie on my stomach almost all the time to help the ventilator work with my lungs while on the ventilator i often imagined myself being the hero of black sabbaths iron man song that character has turned into an iron idol due to time travel and he couldnt talk to anyone and warn of a coming disaster that he had to survive in the future when i was taken off the ventilator after coughing and spitting some i cited a line from that song vengeance from the grave but since no one understood me i just asked them to bring me breakfast everybody was glad to hear that i was feeling better right after they took me off i had a few seconds to catch my breath and start breathing independently it seemed to me as if it had been an eternity i felt a massive surge of energy and i was glad i managed to overcome it from that moment i realized i could be happy about Little Things like the ability to breathe by myself every morning the recovery was rather hard for me but step by step i overcame the difficulties day by day i started to win back my normal life and im still doing it because the treatment isnt over yet i dont want anyone to experience what ive gone through all these months i spent in hospital on a ventilator were no joke i hope that nobody watching this will end up that way. And that they behave responsibly.

The people who are most just think are going towards it but this is where the sentiment is against the.

The Trump Administration has rebuffed detailed recommendations on reopening america issued by the countrys top Disease Control body it was supposed to be published last friday but the agency was allegedly told the guidance would never see light today because it was too prescriptive the rush to get the country moving again comes in spite of the growing numbers of infections and deaths new yorks had to open another temporary morgue refrigerated trailers to see arriving at a facility where bodies are being stored to date the u. S. Has registered more than 1200000 infections and 75000 deaths a 3rd of those in new york state locals there talked us through the gruesome new reality. This makes me just aware of the. Stream nature of time that were living in the fact that you have to temper in this. Process bodies. Pretty pretty awful i try not to think about the ramifications of opening up the country but when i see Something Like this it reminds me that if we had the proper leadership would we do things in a more organized manner safer manner so what it reminds me of is the fact that were not doing anything in an organized way. Because that. Stuff. Now the race to find a vaccine is something of a game of cat most of the moment mysterious symptoms have been found in children whove tested positive for the corona virus even dr scrambling for answers as to what the causes of the americas treat each of his own land. Today an urgent new warning about kids and kovan 19 dozens of children falling ill across the country from a rare illness officials are calling pediatric multisystem inflammatory syndrome new York State Department of health confirming at least 64 suspected cases in the state most of the children testing positive for corona virus or virus antibodies sparking new concern the 2 illnesses may be linked to that uncertainty that comes with it a disease that still is not fully understood by the Global Medical community.

S. The lesson we have to take from this as not only new yorkers but as americans our nation wasnt in position in terms of testing and we can never let that happen again the findings which are drawn from geneticists tracking signature mutations of the virus travel histories of infected people and models by Infectious Disease experts suggest the virus quickly swept from new york city through much of the country before the city began putting social distancing measures in place new york city quickly becoming the epicenter of the outbreak accounting for roughly 30 percent of infections in the whole country makeshift morgues and freezer trucks filling the city streets new Yorks Brooklyn pier which usually hosts live music shows a Ferry Terminal and shipping warehouses is now hosting a fleet of refrigerator more trucks filled with thousands of dead from the corona virus pandemic reporting in new york Trinity Chavez are to. Confronting the common enemy of corona virus has done nothing to dampen the u. S. Leaders on a mostly towards china now with ongoing target threats plans to punish the economy if anything the pandemic made it worse is kind of mope and explains the pandemic is. Changing lots of things but it seems that some things like the ongoing us china confrontation are eternal you may have noticed that trump tweeted in praise of beijing from time to time and was looking to make deals but now it seems the trade war is escalating to higher levels than ever coronaviruses the fuel thrown onto the fire washington is using china as their primary scapegoat to sway the worst attack weve ever had this is worse than pearl harbor this is worse than the World Trade Center as evidence that like this. That it should have never happened could have been stopped at the source could have been stopped and showed it should have been stopped right at the source. And it wasnt china has responded urging washington to focus on the real danger well of choice unless the easing can be they might say the pandemic is comparable to pearl harbor or 911. 00 the enemy facing us is a Novel Coronavirus we urged us to stop shipping lanes to china in turn 2 facts we now hear top u. S. Officials blaming china for spreading dissin from asian about the virus which they claim has chinese origin then china responds and blames the United States are not participating in global efforts and furthermore lying in the hopes of discrediting china the European Union tries not to take sides but its see you think about the constant back and forth i do nothing it is the time for blame games or meet her approach this is the breath rate where someone hearing in the United States calling the virus chinese or the one by iris i dont think it is the moment to reproach anybody but instead to join forces against a problem that is everyones if we dont solve it everywhere we wont solve it anywhere trump seems up for a confrontation with us china relations at a 50 year low trump seems to be amping up economic pressure and the trade war is also applying pressure on the social political and educational for. Theyre calling this the new bipolarity United States facing off against china way it once did against the soviet union but do u. S. Leaders really understand what would be at stake in a new cold war the us economy is quite well tied in with their new arch nemesis each time the confrontation escalates the stock market suffers a full scale trade war threatens the asian markets and the european economies are already on the brink of recession however when dont trump threatened more tariffs on monday they plummet china is set to recover pretty quickly according to most forecasters and donald trump seems ready to play hardball against them even if it threatens the entire Global Economy i guess the question is will the world forgive him for this or will the United States be the one thats isolated. Artsy new york. Just let you know as a fresh twist another trigger topic for us politics russia gay garcelle seems a long time ago now but its pulled up to date the Justice Department just dropped criminal charges against a more troubles former National Security adviser over lying to the f. B. I. About his contact with a vet and Russian Ambassador to take you through whats happened in a bit more detail later in the program. But next for many countries around the world today the 8 marks 75 years since big tree over the nazis in the 2nd world war the residential building for Russias Permanent Mission to the u. N. Has joined in for the next few nights diplomatic staff are set to light up the windows to form a giant number 75 to mark the milestone on a verse or e r c Sophie Shevardnadze has been speaking to a known german film director hurt saw the count Film Festival laureates been reflecting on where humanity stands a decades after defeating fascism the full interview is here in just i was time. Of course its 75 years now and advancing and but we live as an echo of past everyone in my generation old napiers we knew there was something not right in the bill not b. And b. Took a look at what had happened and it is obviously throughout debate it was clear to us fascism is something that is not going to have as long as we lived if we have Something Like fascists take the lead in the holocaust coming out i mean take arms i will defend him or try to defend you see today very clearly today. It is not so much well history and factually happening its a lonesome narrative and we have to be very very careful in what should have been looking at the media what other media doing it says some sort of almost collective brainwashing going on or not i find it. Very alarming an alarming mistake of the west the demonization of russia you see it in the media its not its not so much with people when you look at pinion poles in germany they laugh the russians idea is not wrong that russia belongs belong to when i say as i mean europe culturally it belongs to us the poetry belongs to us its oxygen and. The the the christian. Common occident in history. Because the time zone difference victory day here in russia was marked tomorrow may the 9th huge celebrations normally but they were planned the causes all of that change things as somewhat scale but we will go up special live coverage for you of it here and ill tell you tomorrow nonetheless. Join me every 1st week on the alex salmond show and obviously you do get asked of the world of politics or business im show business ill see you there. Again welcome to the program rather before the pandemic yes there was a time there was another threat supposedly raging to undermine the United States well weve got a russia gate update for you today the u. S. Justice department has dropped criminal charges against Donald Trumps former National Security advisor Michael Flynn hed admit it lying to the f. B. I. You may recall about his interactions with a russian diplomat during the president ial transition but the Justice Department says there are no reasonable grounds for further prosecution. The deal g. s not persuaded that the jury 24th 2017 interview was conducted with a legitimate investigative basis and therefore does not believe mr flynt statements were material even if untrue moreover we do not believe that the government can prove either the relevant false statements or their materiality beyond reasonable doubt Michael Flynn served as National Security advisor in 27 tane he was questioned by the f. B. I. On his contacts with the then Russian Ambassador over the possible lifting of sanctions for him was fired then amid accusations that he desired to agents about the conversation eventually led to him pleading guilty to one count of misleading the f. B. I. The trouble now says he expects consequences for those who went after flynn. He is a great gentleman he was targeted by the Obama Administration and he was targeted in order to trying to take down a president and what theyve done is a disgrace and i hope a big price is going to be paid so now the charges are dropped it somewhat cast doubt on the initial accusation since flynn was the main catalyst for launching the whole russia gate process as a quick reminder of how the claims sent the us media into 50th Michael Flynn is a liar why did the f. B. I. Witness tampering now it is possibly treason but mike flynn is what people thought about when theyre thinking when hes talking people might have gone bad do you know how many trips did Michael Flynn take his place Anthony Bourdain of treason i think this is a profound sort of elements and there is all these started to remember here that u. S. Government had secured the plea from general flynn the judge initially to let him withdraw as guilty plea and now we have just over the u. S. Attorney and i think the worst reviewing the oil and saying there never was a basis to investigate a crime here i think it is going to prove to be the biggest scandal in American History and thats a lot far bigger than watergate this is a major scandal and were just beginning to see a controversy but we will or a lot more in coming days. Over a 1000000 people heading back to work in south africa as the country begins relaxing its covert 19 restrictions sort of titians had earlier warned the president about the catastrophic consequences of prolonged closures. Now the latest estimate is that south africas look down will cause a loss of life at least 20000000. 00 times greater than the loss of life it stands to prevent it would be no exaggeration to say that each week of continuing lockdown will in the long run result in more loss of life than the virus itself. The researchers concluded that the impact of economic collapse would be far greater than a 3rd of the virus than so far south africa has seen a rather low pandemic death rate compared with other countries its less than 200 the overall number of cases amounts to more than 8000 the easing of the locked down and deciding what is and isnt acceptable led these South African surfers to protest earlier this week some Outdoor Activities like jogging and cycling are being allowed but surfing is still pretty. The oceans are safe play shirts on their hips are saying mentally and physically and to take that away from us it sucks if we could go surfing thered be less people walking together and would spread the load out i dont think going surfing will increase your risk any more than walking on the beach or walking on the right. Theyve been try as best they can to contain more coronavirus and population but much harder than living under the poverty line so the issue at hand them how can they actually feel vibrant when part of the loot when the fight you based around market life when they need to be buying or items it makes it very hard for the average person to actually you know live their life and eat well theyre not the only stopping people from day to day excursions to get their food and that look down if i continue my you can lead to shoot for rest and violent. People rebel against the actual government itself im a bit left it to some n. G. O. S and one to play with corporations to give driven jobs or a rifle and nearly and you know small flute for a family this is not enough therefore they need to find a balance between containing through an apartment and providing the actual. So 2020 years been so far no for a lot of people who for their lives are painted by coronavirus even the much needed Summer Holiday looks more and more unlikely now the french president s chipped in hes told people they probably wont be able to travel abroad or even europe should be wondering if well ever be able to get away and he times. Dont. You know theres really nothing quite like a Summer Holiday colorful cocktails to her and. Books to read and of course. It doesnt get much better than that except this year we may be staying put. Limits Major International travel even during the Summer Holidays. Ok well thats not so bad europe has pretty much everything youd want from beaches and mountains the historical cities and of course there are plenty of countries to choose from. Sorry hold on what do you mean were not going to be traveling much in europe either. You dont hold we will stay among european depending on how the epidemic ecologists we may have to introduce even more limits right so well as you know france is also a great destination a huge country with so much to explore. Critic at the moment we can go further than a 100 kilometers ok paris it is just. Festivals concerts and sporting events have all been canceled until at least the end of july while the opening dates for launch museums cinema restaurants etc still on ice meaning there may be little else to do but to admire the citys gorgeous architecture and perhaps a picnic outside it by the river but of course thats a socially responsible distance dont forget and if you were thinking that that would be enough to make paris worth the visit you may hit another brick wall if youre travelling from outside the e. U. Open border areas thats the shingle all the u. K. And there are quarantine measures in place 14 days in fact meaning youd be spending your 2 week break alone and staring at 4 walls so for this summer with love from paris i wish you were here but dont come charlotte to ski r. T. Paris. Through this together day by day tough as it is the way things are looking so far this friday the 8th of may for most. The.
