shot. this is already an emergency china and there is a high risk of spread to other countries now we can reconvene arts it could be a very short notice and we are obviously considering the. situation but to what is really important to say is that the clearing lot of marks or not does not mean that there are no activities being done for the day one of the ritual is in contact daily contact with chinese authorities trying to understand this situation trying to understand the virus together with the chinese cult officials also the appropriate measures can be recommended we need to understand really disability for the time being the same symptoms are after the floor like a respiratory illness like and also what we have noted is that a lot of people who fall severely sick are older people underlying health conditions so we have to understand all of these things that we have to try to understand what is the source of this virus at the same data we really want that people get the right message would have done everyone to follow precautionary measures that holy commanded for respiratory illnesses such as hand hygiene such as covering model translate using such as avoiding contact with people who may have a food like symptoms and especially people who are having fever and who are coughing and who are having problems with breathing should immediately look for medical care talk to patrick tang is the division chief of pathology sciences that sidra medicine in kata he explains how the outbreak compares to that of the sars outbreak 17 years ago. we know so far about this novel coronavirus in china it's it's probably less lethal than sars so of the people that get infected with this virus 3 percent of them die whereas from saw it during sars about 10 percent of the people that got infected died from the infection in terms of infective mis the the new virus is as infectious as sars if not more infectious and sars at least based on what we know right now so after sars scientists went out to find out what was the source of sars and from all the studies done in china they they found that these coronaviruses live in bats so there are probably hundreds if not more different variants of sars viruses kroner viruses that live in bats and in any number of them might have mutations that allow them to cause infections in people everyone around the world both in china as well as the rest of the world we're trying to contain this virus so it doesn't have a chance to spread between human to human because every chance it spreads from one person to the next is a chance for the virus to further adapt and for the new to become a virus that that because it's a human virus for the regular person that's not in china right now that we have to use common sense measures so things like you know washing your hands is probably the most important thing that we can do to prevent infection from this novel coronavirus or other respond to infections and then paying attention to how what we do with her hands with a retoucher eyes or a rubber nose or where put her fingers in her mouth so all of these things are things that can carry different pathogens into our body. 3 people

the warming of relations between the 2 countries. what it does is that it allows anyone with an invitation from a saudi arabian official and a visa to exit israel to go to saudi arabia to pursue business interests seek investment opportunities for a period of up to 90 days now this is a very major change in the public relationship between these 2 countries and it comes at a very interesting time just ahead of the expected unveiling of the trump plan in washington d.c. we believe an event with benjamin netanyahu the israeli prime minister on tuesday before that on monday president trump will be speaking to both netanyahu and the israeli opposition leader benny gantz and this normalization of relations which this is an increment of between saudi and israel really put saudi arabia at least in tension with its own initiative the arab peace initiative of 2002 which says that normalization can only come about after the palestinian issue is settled including a withdrawal of israel from the occupied territories including palestinian sovereignty over east jerusalem and all the indications all of the leaks that we've seen so far of the trump plan suggest that it blows through all of those sorts of palestinian red lines about what they would require and expect from a future state so if this is an indication of the current state of the relationship between israel and saudi arabia it was very interesting at least to see how saudi reacts to that announcement and other arab neighbors of israel later this week. turkey's president has accused the international community of
