Hes fighting the cold his Council Public appearances and will deliver his regular sunday prayers to crowds at the vatican by live stream and the leader of one of historys 2 ruling parties has announced that he has corona virus. So it is arrived i have coronavirus today obviously ill be monitored like everybody else in the situation i feel fine so it was decided that all be isolated at home also my familys falling all the protocols for the situations italy is the worst affected country in europe but france germany and the netherlands have all reported a rise in the number of cases while multi slovakias and serbia have confirmed the 1st infections victoria gayton be aljazeera and the us 21. 00 people on a cruise ship banned from docking in San Francisco have tested positive for corona virus Vice President mike pence says the ship is carrying 3 and a half 1000 passengers and crew around 50 have been tested so far a grand princess will be taken to a noncommercial port where more tests will take place the centers for disease controls director robert red feel downplayed the risk of american citizens catching coronavirus but this time the risk to the american people. In most Areas United States we do have a few areas of Significant Community transmission. One thing we can all take pride in is that this nation has the best Public Health infrastructure really driven by the backbone of the local and state Health Departments and florida is no exception to being prepared we are tracking this the where these cases are confirmed and when we see evidence of sustained Community Transmission then that tips into us recommending mitigation strategies. I would encourage people to go after their their regular daily lives i did say i want people to all use common sense and do their role and responsibility and basic Hygiene Products that we talked about but i would not encourage anyone to change their plans at this point based on what the epidemiology is here in florida and they should enjoy disneyland they should enjoy the rest of florida and patty kahane is in washington d. C. Where theres been a Significant Development in the corona Virus Outbreak linked to 2 political conferences has they recent weeks. There is news coming out of washington d. C. That is going to have political leaders very concerned there were 2 big conferences in the capital in just the last couple of days one was the conservative Political Action committee thats basically a republican lobbying organization they had a huge group the American Israel Public Affairs committee or a pac they had their annual conference in washington d. C. Now we are hearing reports that the attendees at both of those conferences have been detected to have the coronavirus so the big concern is going to be did it spread among that group the conservatives and the organization and all of the 800000 attendees that were in that giant Conference Center so this is obviously going to become a great concern for political leaders we expect the numbers in the United States are going to rise dramatically heres why there really hasnt been very much testing for the corona virus in the United States because at 1st the federal agency that was tasked to create the test sent it out it didnt work they just then a few days a few days ago allowed private labs to come up with their own test will they send out their test to the Public Health agencies so there just arent a lot of test kits out there now u. S. President said anyone who needs a task can get a test but were hearing from other Health Officials on the ground and also within the administration that that is simply not the case they hope to ramp up the testing a lot by hundreds of thousands in the next couple of days perhaps by the millions so we should see a pretty sizable increase in the number of coronavirus cases here in the United States now hotel being used as a Coronavirus Quarantine Center in chinas Eastern Province has collapsed dozens have been rescued from the rubble in kwanzaa rescue workers are doing all they can to help the 30 people still trapped in iran meanwhile a 2nd newly elected politician has died from the corona virus nearly 6000 people there are infected but Health Officials fear the actual number is much higher than whats being reported to be has more from tehran. Theyre definitely trying to do whatever they can to convince people to listen to the advice that theyre given thats really been the biggest challenge from Senior Leadership here in iran in terms of combating this coronavirus ever since the outbreak was publicly announced ever since it began in home last month now if you speak to iranians even those that do believe the government in a recent poll by member of the Municipal Authority here in tehran 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 current of arson 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 spread your hands before you start the journey 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 on less south speak to dr bob he is medical is a medical doctor and journalist and author and hes via skype from tele in vermont thank you so much for being with us so next doctor on the one hand you have the u. S. Government saying you know keep going about your business theres nothing to worry about on the other hand you have countries like italy knocking down entire towns and cities israel coronating people who are at the apec conference because of one case between these 2 extremes where should we be landing. You know its a really tough push for the because we simply dont know what the denominator is that is without enough tests and we dont know whether theres you know widespread corona already here in the United States especially in Washington State or the slower because as your Previous Report said you know you just havent had enough test kits yet however the bottom line is china succeeded i mean china now has over 800000 people corteen in beijing and william province where they had you know entire cities locked down they sort of want theyve gone from 1000 cases so day down to 90 or so cases so you know those very draconian measures can work but all these public crises use are you know balancing individual liberties against whats best for the overall population here in the u. S. Tell you always that this you know live with every new epidemic theres the Public Health authorities are trying to tamp down any concern to tell you go about jailing them you know it doesnt quite trust that thats absolutely true and they have the media that may be fanning the flames of you know a big new epidemic shang to this point falling we just dont know that this can be norahs pandemic you know that as many as 15000000 people some of the you know predictors are now saying or whether hopefully its going to be less then theres been some criticism of the u. S. Government of the time but ministration in particular in the media in the u. S. Of its handling of the crisis do you think if its fact criticism. Well in every one of these crises that ive gone through you know for me be on the government always gets criticized and if i think the system was appropriate you know these tests should have been available or earlier they should have worked earlier and they should have had them out to be more earlier but theyve given credit you know they have been able to you know courteney ships quickly you know tape people who have been exposed shut down a couple schools my nephew school actually has been shut down and marsh money your which is coming a little bit of an epi center there so its you know 2 or suppose it was new york city today 2 more private schools which shut down because they had individuals there so well have to see you know governance a little bit like i think theres you know some fair as a but i do think its important to say you know us truly does have the best as humans disease surveillance probably ever the city is just you know the most magnificent operation most countries will tell you and with anthony there are National Institutes of health also there were the top texas disease experts that spent through all of this since early h. I. V. So its a great team i think theyre doing a good job now i think some of the criticisms fair i think that were pretty much on track so what should we be doing and i mean we shouldnt be too scared to be scared to be what what what should the average joe do about this epidemic right now. So if i think of an interest in the is worth the risk it was a new advice today that if youre over the age of 60 and especially if youre a chronic disease or a say lung disease asthma which i fortunately has thats where the risk is you know in my age group i think the death rate is 8 percent when you get your eightys i think its you know so you see the deal height are higher so theyre saying if youre over 60 you know dont be going to concerts theyll be going to Public Places to try to stay at home stay where i think thats going to beis because thats where the risk is you know if youre younger chances are youre going to have a very mild disease and for kids to be very very little illnesses been reported so far under the age of 15 what i would say is this you will be able to tell the difference between symptoms of the flu and symptoms carona early on so 2 things one the flu shots important because then youll be able to distinguish you have the flu shot and chances are when you have the symptoms that have maybe but the most important piece of advice is this if you think youre starting to get the flu there are very good antiviral drugs. Is such as temples example and you can take those theyre affected with the flu and they may make effective trauma but the early and aggressive with those symptoms call your Doctors Office dont walk in their effect already call them and they get the right instructions but i think the watchword is dont be scared just be early and aggressive and proactive and you and your family should be in a great shape thank you very much for the advice dr bob mondello matter a lot to joining a fan from the u. S. Thank you very much for your time we appreciate it youre right one.
