About 772. 00 deaths per day and under a more aggressive figure that would be about 1200. 00 deaths per day so whereas most European Countries their death rates are lowing lowering here in the u. S. Its just keeps increasing brant. As you just mentioned there are some parts of europe are seeing a 2nd wave of cases what restrictions if any are European Countries doing to deal with the outbreaks so lets take a look at how some of the European Countries are doing right now and how are theyre dealing with their 2nd wave of the virus so france for example they have over 30000 deaths now they have just banned large gatherings in some regions and theyve also imposed a mandatory face masks in hundreds of across france in spain where there is over 228000 deaths now theyve just seen a spike in new cases in catalonia so a new state home water has just been placed on about 4 and. 1000000 residents brand and thats a huge blow for tourism for spain as some European Countries like the u. K. Have issued travel warnings for the affected areas now in germany the deaths have been lower but now theyre testing all travel travelers arriving from the highest countries at their airports now italy on the other hand they have had the 2nd highest death in europe and now theyre seeing infections rise once again so now anyone coming back to italy from places like aeration the greece malta spain now theyre facing a mandatory cold in 1000 testing in belgium in the city brussels that now face masks have become mandatory after they saw a small spike in new cases in the netherlands now theyve also had a have a lower death rate theyre warning against all residents again traveling to places like sweden croatia romania bulgaria and malta and what theyre also doing is that theyre considering doing mandatory testing on anyone visiting brothels which are very popular in the lens since most of those customers come from other places in europe now in portugal that had fewer cases and deaths than and then many other european nations and now they have also decided to keep their night clubs close lastly greece where deaths have also been one of the lowest in europe theyre requiring all travelers coming in to fill forms that they can be tracked in case of an outbreak so brand as long as cases are rising in europe as were seeing there governments assume that a 2nd wave is on its way and for some it has already arrived brant or 2 correspondents are terry thank you for that insightful report.

And boeing has the 1st order of 2020 for its troubled 737 max jetliner the plane maker released a statement on wednesday announcing polands largest charter carrier enter area had ordered 2 of the jets with the option to buy 2 more now this is the 1st purchase since november of 2019 when boeing secured 30 orders at the dubai airshow beyond the purchase of the controversial plane there was another point that raised some questions boeing didnt identify the planes at 737 maxes instead they were identified as 737 dash ace boeing is still awaiting government approval for the plane to return to service after the max was grounded in march of 2900 following 2 crashes that took the lives of 346 passengers so lets dig into some details here with n. T. S. B. Official jamie fanchon jamie thank you so much for being here today. Now jamie i. To start 1st with this purchase of the macs this being the 1st purchase of the year for the macs that is airlines have canceled more than 400. 00 orders for the max as it still hasnt been cleared to return to service what is the takeaway for men are actually making these purchases well we can see that theres starting to be some come come come for that the airlines are feeling of as far as the market itself as the far as the travel in Aviation Industry itself were also seeing that there is there may be some confidence that is being built up by some of the at least International Carriers and the boeing aircraft itself and the boeing 737. 00 max so its going to be interesting to see how this plays out but it is the 1st in my opinion of a glimpse of positive Movement Towards the Aviation Industry and also for boeing now i think one of the headlines that everybody was seeing when they saw this purchase was the situation with the name what do you make of removing max from the title and do we actually know that boeing is doing that or was it just happen to be on this press release and would this raise concern for consumers who maybe dont realize theyre on a 737 max when they book a flight right right exactly and this is one of the issues that ive brought up several times here on. Television shows in the conversations that ive had with people in the industry which is that theres a lot of concern and one of the biggest problems that boeing has right now is their Public Relations aspect of their of their of the some of the recent macs the removal of the macs name has been something thats been tossed around for quite some time not only by a possibility for those outside the industry in also in the side of the industry but also inside boeing as a possible renaming in rebranding of the products i think even that one point the president mentioned that theyre going to have to read to brand the plane so i think that were going to see how were going to see some real changes as far as attitudes towards the 7 max as they rebranded us but i think theres going to be a lot of concern and these to be some Due Diligence and. And the president has by the the American Public to make sure that they know exactly what theyre flying on and that the f. A. A. Has done all of their Due Diligence to make sure that these planes are now safe in flyable and thats a good point i want to end on this where are we when it comes to Regulatory Approval for getting the max back in service where and where in the seventys where the 45 day period of the 737. 00 max review so the Public Comment period were still in the middle of that but its over were about i would say about 2 weeks into it was that 45. 00 day period is over its going to be a minimum of the middle of october to late october before the 737. 00 max is approved to be up in the air in the u. S. Now thats just in the u. S. These other. International carriers or International Regulatory organizations like transport canada theyre doing their test next week so its going to be very interesting to see how these other regulatory agencies and other foreign governments and countries how they approve the f. A. A. Some of the 7 max and being. Air war the again within their countries and by the carriers former n. T. S. B. Official jamie thank you so much for that expert analysis thank you.

Time now for a quick break but hey here because when we return all more news outlets are taking up their fight against apple over fees from the app store after a video game giant push the i phone maker for the same reason just on the other side we take a look at the battle and what precedent it could set moving forward and as we go to break here are the numbers at the close. Was a pandemic notice that you know blood is just flying to nationalities. So much. We dont actually. Need to. Judge your. Commentary classes please listen to. We can do better we should be. Everyone is contributing each of our own way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges created the response has been much so many good people are helping us. It makes us feel very proud that we are in it together. In the troubled 19 seventies a group of killers rampage through parts of Northern Ireland that was coordinated loyalist attacks particularly on the population of belfast tens of thousands were forced to flee their homes and what was striking to put these attacks was a p. R. You see the Police Actually took part in the attacks so instead of preventing it they were active participants in the burning of coal streets in belfast at the take more than a 100 innocent civilians were murdered as the review continues and we found out more i was surprised about the extent and of the currents which the pollution was involved in some of those cases they killers would later be named into the now and were getting i think it went to the very very top i think it is for all the water where all the taste and you thought was going on and give the go ahead. Has changed american lives but pharmaceutical companies have a miraculous solution. Based drugs its not the people who are chronic pain and believe that their prescription is working for them and the remedy be said to the price that they paid was their dependency and addiction to opiates is the 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 the long term. And welcome back there is a war going on right now between apple and content publishers in the app store apples App Store Fees have been raw. Ising and now major news publishers along with some of the most popular games online well theyre pushing back in fact for one publisher epic has sued apple for acting as a monopoly after it removes a popular game epic later filed an injunction to stop apple from pulling its developer tools in what epic called a retaliatory measure so weve got a lot to discuss here so joining us now to discuss his boom bust cozen investigative journalist bents want and entrepreneur and video game analyst use of enjoyment who is also the author of one up creativity competition and the Global Business of video games thank you both for being here but i want to start with you this battle between fortnight and apple is over the app store feeds correct. Yeah it absolutely has by the way i was going to say the u. S. Has the maybe the greatest book title so thats a pretty pretty tough thing to fall there but yeah its pretty incredible when you look at whats happening with epic gaming right now and really its not just epic but its news publishers as you said its a whole host of App Developers and constant creators who are using essentially 2 stories the app store and then the Google Play Store on Android Devices essentially what epic has done is they attempted to essentially allow users to make purchases inside of a fortnight instead of doing it through the app store as a way of saving money because theres this huge fee of about 30 percent that apple charges every time one of those charges is made through the app store and so epic was trying to do a work around and apple said no not going to do it and so essentially you know fortnights been taken off of. The Apple Apple Store apps or thats the name of it given to confuse there in the abstract they were taken off there but whats happened is theyve also filed an injunction trying to stop essentially apple from removing everything that theyve created in terms of developer tools also from the app store so its a huge mess but whats been interesting about this brand is to watch others as you said like new sites of publishers who are now jumping on this bandwagon as well saying hey were also tired of paying these incredibly high fees you know use in terms of taking on apple there are actually few Gaming Companies that would either have the guts or the sheer power to do so and you know epic is a 17500000000. 00 company are they the ones who had to be there to do this. Yes i think in many ways what this moment requires is a sort of loose thinking company and used to be ironically apple but i. Think that now its been taken over by a company like epic and has been valued at so much money and just raise an incredible round again and so they have the coffers to have the cash and so to take someone that has no Strings Attached the thing to know thats particularly pertinent here is that they only make about 40000000. 00 a month off of mobile Everything Else from that for income and Everything Else comes from other platforms like p. C. And council so theyre not exposing themselves as much as say an activision which draws about a 3rd of its annual revenue from the apps or both google and apple so for those reasons i think its unique position and is that why we havent seen somebody like that guy who makes. Billions of dollars also on app stores but really 90 percent of their business is in mobile apps so they have it one of the take on this battle because they have too much at stake at stake here yes absolutely if you call as you say is mostly reliant on mobile but if you recall they were also very reliant in the early days on facebook and facebook changed the currency in the classroom although that was 100 percent of their revenue and it decimated a lot of casual Game Companies at the time zynga took a hit there as well so i think they still have some Institutional Knowledge where they remember that thats you know the vulnerability that they have as an organization you dont want to mess up the admissions you get apple if youre that you know but lie and im a low income at the same time of course you know the fees are in the words of a lot of developers little small medium and large size exorbitant and you could see that innovation and creativity with floor if there was a little bit more flowing back to the Actual Community creating content. I want to hit on this news angle of it because these news content creators are also now theyre standing up to apple as well what are they doing exactly here. Well theyre joining in and essentially applying their weight to a law suit thats moving forward so theres a firm out of seattle thats actually taking on the google system to enjoy it and also apple essentially saying that these are monopolies that have been formed and that these monopolies because they control virtually all of what happens in terms of news content in terms of app content on mobile devices that they are acting as monopolies and therefore these are antitrust or anticompetitive practices that theyre participating in so what were seeing now is a whole bunch of publishers and creators and developers who were kind of joining in on this to say wait a minute lets lets move forward in the legal action to see if we can break the hold that essentially google and apple have on this and by the way microsoft is one of the companies thats also leaning into this as well and i dont think they join the lawsuit yet but theyre leaning into it saying yeah that apple and google or centrally abusing their role in the marketplace and again have a monopoly here so its going to be very interesting to see that whether or not this kind of avalanche may have been started by one company in the form of epic gain standing up and saying enough is enough youre taking too much from us now used if those of us who follow the gaming industry know epic is not exactly and if that player here because they have such they try to do the same thing with their own storefront as fortnight became an incredibly popular game so they try to do this on the p. C. Stuff right now obviously theres not a monopoly there the same way because what youre looking at is you have steam you have epic you have the soft you have many other microsoft has their own game store so is there a little bit of hypocrisy here coming from epic. Thats a good question so i believe the reason i think these are the realities of every day platform economics that were now living in the Games Industry product base business used to be very much about value chain optimization in a way that nintendo and sony do that so well no it isnt but from economics its all about attracting 3rd Party Content creators which apple has the goods epic has done of course by buying sajjan nixon a few other assets that create a unique experience on its platform and its store and then as of course you know getting the word out to consumers so these are very different mechanics and underlying economics is that i dont think so if i had to characterize sweeny of a city that he is consistent in his concern for sustainable ecosystem the man has purchased 50000 acres of you know a Conservation Area in North Carolina so his concern seems to be dedicated to really. Cultivate innovation at the same time you know these are all platforms kind of pulling its a tug of war in some degree and so the final thought for me the areas that you know the microsoft of the world those are the kind of companies and ways to this conversation is lawsuit i want her to charge fees and 30 percent fees at that on a little bit of a weird sort of all that awfully thats thats one and it would be interesting to see what happens the way of epix real engine which is at the base of so many games and how that might play into this as well but lets call it spence wanted author of what up used to vent droid and thank you both for your time and insight. And finally ikea taiwan has taken a new approach to promoting the companys catalogue on the companys Facebook Page they have replaced some models and items with characters and furnishings from the Nintendo Game animal crossing in the post the original pages of the catalog are shown next to those with the adorable animal crossing substitutes at this time it doesnt really appear that nintendo was involved in the post promoting i t a taiwan but it doesnt appear that theyve had to take it down either the latest game in the series was released at the start of stay at home orders due to the pandemic and became somewhat of a cultural phenomenon selling tens of millions of copies and thats at the for this time you can catch us on demand on the brand new portable t.
