With some cemeteries refusing to accept the dead plus. Short d. M. U. Dead. A chilling warning from the philippines president anyone who violates the lockdown. Welcome to aljazeera a 6 week old baby in the United States is amongst the latest victims of coronavirus as the amount of people who are infected around the world approaches 1000000 in the u. S. Theres been more than 5000 deaths and Vice President mike pence has compared the situation to italy which has been overwhelmed by cases President Donald Trump is considering limiting domestic air and rail travel between hot spots but hes resisting calls for a National Shutdown even as infections pass 200000 state governors are pleading for more equipment to tackle the outbreak but federal stocks are said to be near empty like hanna has more from washington d. C. A number of u. S. Governors have been pleading with the federal government for more medical supplies in particular ventilators a state like new york says it needs as many ventilators as possible to stockpile for when the apex of the epidemic hits which current projections show by the end of the month yet the president continues to insist that there are enough ventilators being supplied to the various states in fact he says that many are being produced now so many that at some stage in the future the u. S. Could export the ventilators to countries in need were soon going to have more ventilators or we need were building thousands of ventilators right nanotech should period of time to build and. And again nobody could have known a thing like this could happen would building thousands we will fairly soon be at a point where we have far more than we can use even after we stockpile for some future catastrophe which we hope doesnt happen were going to be distributing them the extras around the world well go to italy well go to france well go to spain which is and you know very hard hit in recent weeks President Trump has made several bob democracy about china and the fact that the pandemic originated then now some reports emerge that indicate china has been underreporting the number of infected this would have an impact on the way the rest of the globe including the United States prepared for the onslaught of the virus yet surprisingly at the daily news briefing President Trump brushed off such reports saying that the economic relationship with china was deeply important United States as was his relationship with the chinese president their numbers seem to be a little bit on the lights and im being nice when i say that relative to what we witnessed and what was reported but we discussed that with him not so much the numbers as what they did and how theyre doing this spending they will be spending when things even out this is obviously a little bit of a hurdle whats happened over the last month but theyll be spending 250000000000. 00 buying our product 50000000000. 00 to the farmers alone 200000000000. 00 other things they never do that before once again it appears President Trump concentrating on economic matters rather than the fun that chinas underreporting of the infected would have had a massive impact on the way in which the globe has dealt with the pandemic. Well its up to china now where the government see is there could be a 2nd wave of infections the county knew who berry where the break began has gone into lockdown after several new cases were reporters lets bring in our correspondent katrina gue whos in beijing with the very latest so it seems that china is by no means out of the woods yet no no it isnt so judge county which has about 600000 People Living there has just gone into lockdown and this is and one province province just north of crewe baby at the center of the outbreak here in china so what we know is that on a wednesday of cheers day john county officials told residents that they were no longer allowed to leave their homes without express permission no nonessential business as well allowed to have been worst cars were taken off the roads and all Outbound Travel has been virtually restricted as well so this comes just as who but a province the original location of the outbreak and much of the rest of china is going back to normal so its still very worrying to see that there are some very Strict Lockdown still taking place in china as people are being told that they can go back to work and that the danger is more slowly over here in china but of course circuitry no i mean there is always concerned about a 2nd wave so the chinese authorities will surely be very cautious about how they define this outbreak has an outbreak or a one off incident. Thats right and interestingly theres been very little mention of the judge county lockdown here on state media actually and i think thats probably intentional what we are seeing on state media instead are very reassuring messages the government really want to calm the public to reassure them that the government has things under control and that the economy can get started ill just give you an example this is the front page of the china daily today and i dont know if you can see that picture but its a picture of. Touring province which is a main manufacturing hub here in china people without masks clapping very happy and xi jinping himself not wearing a mask and i think thats very representative of the message that the Chinese State media want to tell the public youre in china that it is more sleaze safe and victory is close at hand but the feeling on the ground is very different people are still very nervous in particular about a symptomatic cases that is people who dont present symptoms that could spread corvet 19 and we actually had Chinas Center for Disease Control do an interview on state t. V. On wednesday evening and he actually said to the public that the chances of bumping into an asymptomatic carrier a virtually 0 and also this is just following wednesday when china started to add asymptomatic patients to the public to the official tally after public outcry that they werent being included but so far chinas numbers do seem still to be very low today we just had the most recent number on wednesday 35 new cases all imported and 15 new asymptomatic patients but of course there are more and more questions inside china and abroad about the accuracy of these numbers for the update katrina youre in beijing thank you. Now the scale of the pandemic has led to more people dying alone bodies are often buried without the usual traditions and in iraq some cemeteries are refusing to accept the dead so wonderful teen spoke to a family him morning in fact at. A desperate plea for help posted on facebook from the confines of a government run quarantine facility. We pay over to the higher religious authorities to find a solution the body has been at the morgue for 4. 00 or 5 days now god can not except that this is the family of. A 67 year old baghdad resident who died on march 21st from covert 19 in a line of muslim tradition body should have been laid to rest within 24 hours but no grave yard would accept to bury him the ordeal has further traumatized the grieving family who spoke to them after they were released from quarantine. The people and tribes that live around the graveyards refused to allow the burials they said this is a pandemic and it will spread through the ground but i blame the government because a graveyards are under their responsibility nobody came to bid their respects during the 3 day mourning period instead people sent banners with messages of condolences there is a widespread stigma associated with covert 19 and some of it stems from fear of being buried in a way that goes against islam religious leaders have tried to clarify which burial rights can be waived. We believe that any dead person should be honored by a suitable burial except in one situation if a normal burial could hurt the living people at that point we can view some conditions like washing the corpse but its important to preserve honor by burning the body. School religious authorities and the ministry of health have appealed to graveyards not to turn away covert 19 victims were not. Always out of the World Health Organization and Health Minister issued instructions on how to deal with the bodies by sterilizing them wrapping them inserted ice cover and burying them to meters below the ground all the experts say there will be no risk associated with those bodies. But the message had little effect and the government has now allocated theres ignited covert 19 burial sites in the desert the Popular Mobilization forces a number of mostly iranian backed perm military groups agreed to carry out the burials or death and im sure we are not burying them randomly were doing it in line with islamic law 1st we put his right cheek on the soil facing mecca the shrouds are available and we can also bathe the bodies if the Health Ministry allows it still convincing families to let go of deeply rooted cultural and religious beliefs has been a challenge ultimately they had no choice was. 8 days after his death Security Forces scored the family to the desert to bury his body there was nothing to mark the location to help the family return for prayers and little assurance they say that his soul would rest in peace 14 aljazeera.
