Quarantine has brought Financial Hardship and in some cases desperation and thats given rise to numerous gestures of kindness like these Food Bank Donations in naples many residents in the citys old quarter are hanging pastor and other items from solidarity baskets for the benefit of the jobless and poor people without enough to eat those who can give those who cannot take says a sign shes really out all of us is a service is a bottle were all in the same boat and we will stall row in the same direction as the organizer angelo pick only from his balcony.

Over the past 5 weeks we have witnessed a near exponential grows in the number of new cases reaching almost every country to 33 an area the number of days has more than doubled in the past week in the next few days we will reach 1000000 comfort and cases and 50000 does well the new York Governor Andrew Cuomo says hes closing down the playground the new york city in an effort to limit the rising number of coronavirus deaths across the state he also had a stark warning for other u. S. Regions look at us today serious self so more were going to take more dramatic actions were going were going to close down the new york city playgrounds ive talked about this for weeks i warned people that if they didnt stop the density in the games in the playgrounds you cant play basketball. You cant come in contact with each other so use the open space in a park walk around get some. Great no density no basketball games no close contact no violation of social distancing period thats the rule so my can is joining us from washington so the governor of new york making sure that people are enforcing the restrictions indeed yes hed been asking for compliance for a number of weeks in terms of keeping to those social distance restrictions however clearly he believes that some people are not following these guidelines hence the closure of all playgrounds across the city of new york the governor pointing out there that you just cannot play games like basketball at this particular time and the people do not voluntarily stop doing actions then hes going to enforce it so all the playgrounds now are closed in new york the governor clearly irate at this having to happen happening to having to enforce this particular order the governor to speaking about the liaison that is happening with new york state new jersey and connecticut in a way of combating this fire is saying that theres a lot of interaction between these 3 States New York state itself incredibly badly hit nearly 400 people have died over the 24 hours across the state so the death toll there continues to mount in that 3 States Region new Jersey New York state and connecticut the death toll is now well over 2 and a half 1000 so certainly the governors working together very important in terms of combating the spread of the virus but also symptomatic of the fact that its the governors who are leading the fight against the pandemic not necessarily federal government and speaking of connecticut mike youre mentioning in just a moment ago were getting tragic news out of there. Indeed yes the governor of connecticut has announced that a 6 month old baby has died in Hartford Connecticut this he says is the youngest victim of the pandemic at this particular point the baby did test positive for the coronavirus certainly this is heartbreaking and just an indication of how the profiles of the victims vary and nish really it was thought that the virus would focus on older people people with Latent Health problems however its clear enough that its from a results that are coming from across the country it doesnt go only for elderly people it goes for middle aged people it goes for younger people and in this particular case a 6 month old baby yeah right mike hanna thank you.
