P. Among the 21 whove died in the last day and more than 5 and a half 1000 people are infected the numbers are rising across europe as well the leader of one of the citys ruling parties is among the 5883. 00 now confirmed as infected a rise of more than a 1000 in the space of a day 233. 00 have died there all together and the government has announced tough new restrictions and then in china a hotel in the city of jo which was housing people who had contact with virus patients has collapsed 30 people are still trapped in the wreckage katrina you has more on that story now from beijing. This hotel is located in the city of 20 in chinas Southern Province and the collapse happened in early evening around dinner time trapping about 70 people including people who we know were being monitored because they were in close contact with corona virus patients now the province of food yet has about 300 coronavirus cases but its monitoring and isolating in quarantine thousands more people known to be linked to those cases for monitoring by medical authorities we know that they had been put in this hotel since about need february now we know that emergency teams as you said a working to pull out people and so far theyve succeeded in pulling out dozens of people were also getting some more information about the hotel itself its not actually a very old building it was only built in 2018 its a steel structure about 5 to 8 stories and we know that the hotel occupied at the heart of the building in the lower level had some stores and shops located below it its still unclear at this stage exactly what has caused this collapse but we do know from witness accounts that when it did collapse it sounded like an explosion.

Theyre definitely trying to do whatever they can to convince people to listen to the advice that they are given thats really been the biggest challenge from Senior Leadership here in iran in terms of combating this corona virus ever since the outbreak was publicly announced ever since it began in rome last month now if you speak to iranians even those that do believe the government than a recent poll by a number of them in the simple authority in town iran estimates that only 50 percent of the people are truly concerned about this is a Public Health crisis even if you speak to iranians who might wish to follow the governments advice to the letter they say they simply cant afford it even if they might like to stay indoors and not open their shops not carry on with their businesses many shops are closed many are not one business operator i spoke with said that he worries that shutting down his business will mean not only laying off workers but because of the Economic Impact over a long period of time of the corona virus and having to shut things down it might mean that hell never be able to open his business again taxis are available on the streets but when you get in most drivers are wearing gloves and masks and they provide you with Hand Sanitizer and will spray your hands before you start the journey or as much of a service to their passengers as a way to protect themselves really iranians will tell you that they simply cant afford for life not to go on as normal and that is something that the government has been aware of ever since this outbreak began. Well the Italian Government meanwhile is introducing restrictive new measures in parts of the country in the north of the country which has been really badly affected by the coronavirus a draft to create a will tell people not to enter or leave long body or 11 other provinces and closes ski resorts Museums Cultural Centers and gyms schools will remain closed until at least april the 3rd new all comes after actually reported more than 1200 new infections in the past day and then pope francis whos fighting a cold as Council Public appearances and will deliver his regular sunday prat to crowds at the vatican by lifestream instead the leader of one of italys 2 ruling parties has also announced that he has the virus.

Contacting all the people who are close to me at work to be interviewed and to be checked. Well elsewhere in europe france diagnosable 330 new cases of the coronavirus on saturday thats the biggest daily increase france has recorded so far 7 more people have died bringing the total to 16 police in spain have deployed forces to really try and implement that home quarantine in a town in the north with a high number of infections and then the number of people here in the u. K. Diagnosed with the crown of virus has now risen to 209 so thats how things stand at the moment here in europe and then 21 people on a cruise ship has been barred from docking in San Francisco have tested positive for corona virus u. S. Vice president might and says only about 50 people of the 3 and a half 1000 passengers and crew have test him tested so far the grand princess will be. Into a known commercial port where more tests you to take place meanwhile a man who contract the virus on the vessel sister ship the diamond princess which was held as of course in japan last month has died he is the 7th person from that ship to die of corona virus so lets get the latest from patty call hane whos in washington past who just running through some of the figures here in europe where the number of infections appears to be rising whats the state of play there in the united in the u. S. Well ill tell you i just want to look at the centers for Disease Control their web site theyre usually the clearinghouse for all of this. Doesnt appear that the information has been updated since perhaps 24 hours ago but we are hearing more states come forward we believe as many as 29. 00 states now have cases of the current virus and that is going to exponentially grow and here is why the u. S. Hasnt really had test kits to figure out who has the virus basically throughout this entire outbreak its now just getting to the point where hospitals have tests and doctors are able to order these tests and the reason why is the centers for Disease Control theyre in charge they came up with the test they sent it out the basically the labs were like this doesnt work so then they fixed it up sent it out and now theyre trying to scale up now the president came out and said look anyone who needs a task can get a test thats not necessarily the case part of the problem is when the c. D. C. 1st started setting these sas kits out because they had so few of them they limited it they said basically only people who have actually been in china are going to be tested for it so you saw nurses come out and say i think i have it and they said well you cant be tested for it and the people who didnt get tested many of those just kept continuing in the community so we really dont know the full extent of it the president likes to say that the numbers are very low compared to everyone else but keep in mind people havent actually really been able to be tested to for it up until just the last day or 2 so expect to see that number grow exponentially another unusual thing here the centers for Disease Control the c. D. C. There at every every sort of thing like this theyve always put out the numbers theyve been very transparent very public heres how many tests weve done they say theyre no longer going to do that when it comes to the coronavirus the goal for the Trump Administration is not to spread panic but there are a lot of state officials who are saying youre making people panic by not giving them the actual information so a lot of criticism as to how the this administration has handled this from. The beginning right and then also simple taney asli you have concerns about how this is going to impact the Global Economy we know theyre going to be severe consequences if in predictions of a recession but what the specific points of concern there in the u. S. Well this is a Service Economy so if people cant feel free to go out and do services that 70 percent of the economy then youre going to see a dramatic shrinkage of the economy and there are big already indications that this is going to happen south by southwest that the huge festival in texas theyve canceled for the year youve seen amtrak say we dont have passengers to justify nonstop service on the trains between new york and d. C. So were starting to see these Big Companies tell their employees to stay home that affects the shops around the offices and so were seeing bakeries say i dont know how much longer i can do this for example in seattle one baker said that their profits are down by 50 percent if it keeps up she said another 70 percent i dont know how long i can sustain this the u. S. Is also going to have a very unique challenges in this because of the way the economy here is set up this is not a country that has universal sick time so 2 thirds of the lowest income people in this country if they dont go to work they dont get paid and these are not people who have any sort of savings accounts usually so that is the fear is that that is going to push these people lot of them work in the Food Industry to go to work sick the other issue is 27500000 people in this country do not have Health Insurance and again many tend to be low income so they dont have the money to go to a doctor and say sure test me i can pay for it so theres great concern in congress that these issues need to be addressed but were seeing again polarization there some republicans are saying companies should offer sick time the government shouldnt regular demand it well there are democrats who are saying no the federal government needs to step in and demand or at least provide some pay for sick workers so they dont come to work and spread the virus so really just the beginning of the outbreak here in the United States but expect over the coming hours and days youre going to see the cases grow exponentially thank you very much from washington patty call hain lets move to asia now because in.
