Afternoon and welcome this is. We begin as is traditional with a look at the latest global coronavirus figures numbers we have now that the total number of infections as. 4. 3000000 more than 293000 lives have been lost and more than 1600000 people have now recovered. We talk restrictions slowly being lifted around the world people are starting to think about life after lockdown walks in the park to perhaps the 1st fake ation experts there are sounding the alarm because examples from asia show that the threat of a 2nd wave of infection that is indeed real for instance the china city of who can work over 1000 was 1st detected was one of the 1st to lift restrictions to to the success of its Strict Lockdown measures however a new cluster of cases has recently emerged that cities or thirtys are planning to test all residents within the next 10 days in a bid to stop the spread. Of career has also been praise for quickly managing the pandemic which to a large extent was due to its high level of testing started last week the country also sort of spiky new cases of thirtys of linked it to nightclubs and bars in the capital to solve the w. H. O. As represented to russia a later version of each told me earlier how she sees the situation developing. Theyre going to say she has been saying from the beginning we do regard to the need to ease down there. Is that vigilance is needed because the virus. Around us the virus is still here and it continues to. Measure we need to be taken into account for the new reality that we are having and that is the capacity to. Quickly identify all the just and challenging rather care and i would say small clusters of contact. For poor lockdowns of society and unfortunately we believe that this is going to be sort of a operation until i. Heard immunity. 1 probably a vaccine i still have to wait for from a purely health would you preferred lockdowns to been kept for longer. Still have this is good distancing of people if people take it on their new way of living certain precautions probably we can go to a series of face is that. How. Kirby. Kirby verse and a lot. Of. The comic life that the world needs so this is uncharted territory Uncharted Waters and i think jointly we have to experiment with a lot of. 8 new. Behavior and i think if we get the people who are fully understanding and. Including the this is an ovation i think thatll be the way forward rather than having. If we see countries relaxing measures allowing people in greater numbers together will people be able to maintain even just simple social distancing a bunch of people been stuck indoors for several months now the weather is getting good do you think people will be able to police them so will the temptation just to go back to their old way of living but to much. Well thats difficult to answer but i do believe in people i am as Everybody Knows im really an optimist he all are very strong they have a doctor they have. 8 color are they have all come played they have over the past and various other diseases and i think hygiene as a measure that he has sort of forgotten in a more than well well get a new evidence and this is all this something rather than social distancing and how we can do things not being here was like going to work for me. When i hear 6 high so the aged and making sure i do not infect others and also using the houses in a new way using also digital technology. Consultation i think the world has so much songs available that we just need to know if i am the way how did you lose it and yes i dont give you a life youll be able not to police themselves but to adapt to a new reality. Italian police have arrested more than 90 Sicilian Mafia suspects around the country in whats been dubbed a mega rate they believe the mobsters are behind a recent spike in crime right sound have been taking advantage of the credit to increase their power theyre also comes after a number of mafia bosses were temporarily released from prison and this was part of a controversial plan to stop the spread of the virus in italian journals or the convicts are under supervision at home the Justice Minister has vowed to return them to prison as soon as possible to some though the very notion of mafia bosses being allowed out of jail is an acceptable worse than just liberating the mafia the government have put them in house arrest but in the future where they have to arrest people for years. Just look it was in the governments decision the decision was based moon total memory circulated by the department the Prison Administration asking prison officials to list those over a certain age and with Certain Health conditions who might be at greater risk in case of corona virus infection the officials were then asked to send a list to the supervisory magistrates who were in italy oversee the release of inmates from prison by issuing that memo the department made a mistake as it didnt mention an article in the saudi and penal code that differentiates between common inmates and those in prison for serious crimes such as matthew activities and terrorism that article affords lawyers the opportunity to call for the suspension of special dispensations to prisoners with Health Conditions unfortunately this led to the release of some important figures or among the senior members released but put under house arrest was Franco Cataldo who is serving a life sentence for kidnapping the son of an informant in one of italys most infamous and traumatic murders the boy in question was held hostage for 2 years before being strangled and dissolved in acid tensions erupted in the countrys overcrowded prisons back in march National Prisoner rights advocate immediate action to prevent the spread of the virus into jails which included stopping family visits since then some 376. 00 mafia members and drug dealers moved from jails to house arrest said he and 30 from the cabinet a foundation which studies the mafia believes that the move was a retreat in the fight against the mob. What you close up will. Who would those who lost their loved ones in the fight against the mafia think this measure how would the victims children feel i wonder what my own daughters might have thought seeing those people set free how do i or someone from my unit be murdered by the mafia one of those nights we should always be very careful in finding the right balance between the needs of the state which would never appear to retreat in the fight against the mafia and the needs of the citizens who have probably lost someone to the mafia and who should never see. Gets out of prison its on the acceptable. About from texas for the red is easts cant get to the only clinic this offering him a potential treatment and thats because its in russia with the corona virus having shut most borders and with his condition deteriorating he hopes to catch a rare flight still exists between the u. S. And russia. I hear me and then usual disease called inclusion by scientists its relatively rare probably somewhere around maybe 7 to 15 people out of a 1000000 have it in all likelihood never going to be somebody who has it and it is a disease that theres really no cure for in fact very little is known about it i was diagnosed with this at the mayo clinic in rochester minnesota in december of 2015 and it is generally that all of the time there is nothing you can do or it or it leads all mentally to complete a permanent disability or youre end up in a wheelchair or on bed rest in fact if you were to look at my hands youll notice that my fingers dont bid anymore and thats because what was left of the muscles in my arm have atrophied to the point where i can no longer do things like biting my fear or tying my shoes pick up items off the ground. And also im very unsteady on my fees are tremendous muscle atrophy. The disease that alan spencer there suffers from is a progressive muscle disorder it causes weakness of muscles followed by atrophy sometimes like in alans case it also affects the ability to swallow its still unclear what causes it in the 1st place the Medical Center in the russian city of paris is known for its expertise in dealing with complex disease is it so and as a study is around the lymphatic system which roughly speaking plays a vital role in immune response and many foreigners favorites approach. Although no. One is so huge as to what they have come up with a treatment plan and theres been absolutely amazing doctors here one that tell you that it is amazing they will tell you it is science but for someone who has lived with pain for 25 years it is amazing so that the core issue instead of dealing with symptoms nationally knickerbockers i mean really what their clinic works with the lymphatic system has been working with it since its Foundation Actually has been treating many foreigners with difficult cases in recent years many of those who couldnt get treatment at home or those working in russia all of them are being provided with full spectrum treatment. And wants to get to russia as soon as possible while theres still something for doctors to work with. Although inclusion body myositis is a slow acting disease when you get to a certain point it begins to accelerate and i hit a point where i have gotten. Relatively worse since i started talking to the clinic infirm in the middle of february and so their concern is that if i lose too much muscle mass they may not have much to work with and so we were there their concern was to try and get me there as quickly as possible before i got to the point where i could no longer be helped and so that was the concern we had is that with the way. On into the future if we dont get there soon they may not have much to work with for millions of americans losing the job showing the pandemic could also be bad news for the Health New Study reveals that roughly half of the u. S. Population has Health Insurance provided by employers and the 7000000 that wouldnt have access to any alternative if they were made jobless kellam open has details. In april the United States lost roughly 20000000 jobs and a new study indicates that 43000000 americans are in danger of losing their Health Insurance at a time when a pandemic is sweeping the country and access to healthcare is more important than ever the status quo is incredibly inefficient hissing credit its tight employment for no real reason this problem exposes a lot of the net of chrysis in our system now before the pandemic broke out roughly 160000000 americans had access to health care through their job now for those who lose their job due to layoffs they have access to Health Care Including medicaid or the cobra law quite complicated polls show that 68 percent of americans dont know what their options would be if they lost their job when it comes to Health Insurance furthermore Research Indicates that 7000000 americans are unlikely to find a new Health Care Plan if they lose their job whos going to pay for it last words ill never forget the response my patient goss doubt between labor breaths to me and my team have to explain that he needs to be intubated and placed on a ventilator and this is not just bad for individuals its bad for the health of the entire country means people not going out to seek the help they need and staying sick one out of every 7 u. S. Adults report that they would have void 2nd health care for a future and a dry cough due to concerns about their ability to pay for it. When framed explicitly as believing to have been affected by the Novel Coronavirus 9 percent still report that they would avoid seeking care left wing voices have certainly been raising the alarm when a 1000000 people lost their jobs last month the American People do not want their health care to the employment they want medicare for all theyre in a pandemic in which millions have already lost their Health Insurance when theyd to be guaranteeing health care for all not taking it away lack of health care of the unemployed may also explain the desperation of some americans to end the lockout. Was. Was. Was was well other countries have built up bigger welfare states the United States has long stuck to the mantra if you want been working you can understand why the desperation and fear is rising it will happen artsy new york for my kid or president and ulti host Rafael Correia discuss the American Health crisis with pink floyd cofounder activist new york state president roger waters. And passed the new york under me in a shock yes but you would expect it because theres no Health Service in the United States of america well or Israel Service food is only for the very wealthy men in consequence theyre completely unprepared really to face Something Like that and also theyre not used to acting together as a community and in consequences its this is hitting very very hard to expect significant changes in the past pandemics us well that this is the thats the big question at the beginning i hope so i mean i hope so wouldnt it wouldnt it be great this election thats coming up in the United States in november happens will be a great indication of that. Though well as we cant we could go into that subject its not much of a choice frankly. Germany provokes the fear of brussels interest constitutional call question the legality of the European Central banks Monetary Policy in shoring up the eurozone and so threaten to stop cooperation with it bring you that story after the break. You cant be both with the yeah you want. Anyone else chose seems wrong. Just dont call. Me. Yet to ship out just to. Educate and indeed equals betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. Welcome back germany has started to ease its border restrictions with some of its neighbors including france and austria its not being so friendly towards everyone in europe the countrys high school is demanding the European Central bank prove it scheme designed to bring stability to the eurozone is in fact legal or otherwise is threaten to stop any further monetary cooperation in the movies and raids the e. U. Commission into all of it takes a closer look at the spot. The coronavirus pandemic is putting pressures and strains on many relationships one of those thats feeling the pinch is not between brussels and when it comes to financial burden sharing in the eurozone germanys highest court said the European Central banks corona bond plan would need to prove it was fit for purpose if the single currency is largest economy was to take part the e. U. Commission boss didnt like that bit the recent ruling of the German Constitutional Court to put under the spotlight to ease years of the European Union the euro system and the European Legal system the final word an e. U. Law is always spoken in luxembourg nowhere else so with their well not quite that statement from a sort of on the line gave those that will be vying for the job of german chancellor next year when Angela Merkel calls it a day an opportunity to show just how tough they are the statement from the u. Commission in particular the bar that a european law has takes precedence over national law especially in such a conditional form is simply not accurate chancellor merkel herself has said that countries needing a fiscal helping hand you to corona should rely on existing other news like the european stability mechanism despite the e. S. M. Being viewed as a slap in the face by Member States like italy who remember all d too well the crippling austerity that was forced upon the greeks after it availed itself of the e. S. M. Help there are some voices in germany including that of president of the bundestag and former finance minister of Wolfgang Schauble are saying perhaps this isnt the economic hale should insist on dying on and that this whole argument puts more the National Pride at risk it may well be that the existence of the euro is now also questioned in other you Member States because every national Constitutional Court can judge for itself make no bones about it eurozone economies are going to need some see. Serious financial help not only get a post corona world but in the immediate short and medium term as well in order to get that help in a way that suits the likes of italy and spain and in brussels theyre going to have to stop playing my core its bigger than your court which doesnt look likely any time soon peter all over r. T. Berlin. The president of the geopolitical Analysis Organization europe continent spare emanuel but hes the most power needs to reside in the hands of the Member States not the e. U. Was one body. Particular part of. Who is in power or the European Union is it. Your buddies who do sions. Extending their or own competencies weve all believe meet all the Member States who put silly meat to competences or for your credit union the french and italians or some one country would like the new way to give more power to e. U. To trivialize more you europe in order to force germany to pay more for them but i think this is dangerous because envy enter into to reduce the power of the Member States to us to pose to be remasters of a treaty in this case German Constitutional Court say when it ok the e. U. Lol es. Above national law but on leave if e. U. No is applied in the appropriate way with a complete tense we decided from the Member States. The United Kingdom taking its 1st tentative steps to easing some restrictions at the same time its bringing in some new ones such as a quarantine for those arriving from abroad however the Prime Minister surprised some when he revealed that france would be exempt or in a phone call with the french president it was stated those coming from france wouldnt face the restriction the countries issued a joint statement saying the new measures will be taken in a reciprocal manner and there Boris Johnson and clarified the quarantine move was needed to stop new infections spreading. To prevent reinfection from abroad i am serving notice that it will soon be the time with transmission significantly lower to impose calling t. On people coming into this country by a year later the pm said the rule will apply not just to those who come by air but also by train and ferry we asked people in london what they think of the move. Thanks. To late thats been done from day one dont mean shit happens here but i guess better late than never regardless of our poor group was didnt go about moving it to cool thanks thats not right for only where youre coming from in this country you should be quarantined were doing what were doing it of conscious of doing Different Things it should be one rule for the whole lot today so everythings going to night thats the length and. I dont understand i dont want someone that would be exempt to be quite honest with you because theyre infected like most of the world. Russian diplomat in prague has received threats shortly after a check media published his identity it came as journalist speculated that the man arrived in the country in mid march in order to poison local politicians Russias Foreign Ministry urged his czech counterparts to guarantee security for its employees but is my guess the of picks up the story. Were all weary of the pandemic all the restrictions the fear the endless News Coverage so why not to lighten things up with a little drawn into the parts before the pandemic when the baddest thing in the world was russia had king elections compromising president assassinated spies and now it seems irrelevant may is according to our sources a russian man pretending to be diplomats and using a diplomatic passport travel to prague airport it was discovered that hes not a diplomat is a member of the Russian Secret Service according to the police and other Security Services he was a real threat to prague minas policy politicians who criticize kremlin policy or pursued actions which of course concern in the kremlin he was travelling to the airport with a suitcase and there was information that he would be carrying rice in the sheer amount of ridiculous in the story is stupefying so this baby faced diplomatic worker is apparently a kremlin link secret Service Agent says someone who wants to remain anonymous hide their faces and claims to work for check intelligence all white says thats cover week but these these next part is rock bottom he was apparently found carrying rice in in a suitcase raisen is a toxic agent and a lethal deuce 22. 00 micrograms for reference a microgram is one millionth of a gram and they claim this guy had enough to stuff a suitcase. Grayson is an extremely effective policing toxic in small doses also fairly easy to overlook during. This entire circus was found by check press and initiated apparently by the government which claims essentially that russia hates them yes attacks elections and haps hospitals and is now out to kill a bunch of Municipal Workers the kremlin apparently has Nothing Better to do. We have a number of contentious points with russia it is not just a case of the con if statute which i consider a side issue i dont think we should pursue an aggressive policy like russia our diplomacy efforts accordingly as do i personally officially the czech Counter Intelligence agency b i as has refused to confirm anything by the way guess what the fellow did have in his suitcase this in fact and yes this in fact and in the middle of a pandemic what are the odds the end result has been that the Russian Ambassador is now receiving threats there is now a very real danger to someone direct and verifiable not based on Anonymous Sources they embassy has asked the Foreign Ministry of the Czech Republic to take all appropriate measures to prevent any encroachment on the person freedom and dignity of the employee check media deployed a personal bullying complain against the Russian Ambassador who began to receive threats as a result so they do a little distraction from all the coronavirus news courtesy of a very bored check press a russian operative brings in a suitcase full of poor isnt enough to presumably kill thousands in order to assassinate a local mayor and his 2 friends because they tore down a statue that russia really liked. The check. And i mean you brought up to date appreciate staying with r. T. Will keep you informed on all things related to the coronavirus far on websites our various social Media Channels and our live broadcasts coming to you from studios in here in moscow as well as in london washington d. C. Good food descriptions sound up to tell using even for the owners so how to choose the pet Food Industry is telling us what to feed our pets really more based on what they want to sell us than was necessarily good for the pet turns out food may not be a soap the best people believe we have animals that have you know diabetes and arthritis they have auto immune disorders theyve got allergies we are actually creating these problems its a huge epidemic of problems all of them i believe can be linked to very simple problem of diet and some dog owners so heartbreaking stories about their pets less treats the larger corporations are not very interested in proving or disproving the value of their food because theyre already making a 1000000000. 00 on it and theres no reason to do that research. Hello and welcome to cross talk were all going to consider it im Peter Lavelle with good reason Public Discourse is focused on to address
