After facing criticism for failing to impose restrictions quickly enough theres now a danger of the government lifting things too soon a risk known all too well by londons transport workers 14 have died after contracting cope with 19 most of them bus drivers the price of keeping our cities moving the foka aljazeera london well have more on the pandemic shortly but 1st we turn to our breaking news on yemen and well go to a top whos in sun are also reports that saudi are suggesting a 2 week cease fire talks through the latest news. You know its an Important News because the situation in yemen is very difficult for the healthcare sector to counter the coronavirus in case it emerges in the country the minister of health. In a parliamentary and sister in law has appealed to the walder to do something to end the conflict especially that the he has made it clear that the Health Care Sector although only has. Nearly 1500 beds while in case the coronavirus emerges. Least 28000000 yemenis could be. Affected with this disease while the we have only this kind of 1500 beds so the situation here is very difficult for the Health Care Sector in case the the coronavirus. Diseases emerged here but so far the World Health Organization has announced that no cases have been found in yemen so far thank you very much indeed and for more we can speak now to yemen specialist Ibrahim Khatami he joins us live via skype from new york thanks for being with us so at this stage it sounds from the saudis that its a 2 week ceasefire why are they announcing this now aside from the coronavirus suggestion they seem to be implying thats the reason behind it why else would they be doing this now im not sure if our guest can harris if you can hear me say. It would be its llorente to their studio why do you think saudi arabia has announced the ceasefire now. I think this is more of a p. R. Move for the Public Relation a consumption but we know the yemenis dont need just a 2 week sort of cease fire we need to end the war we need to lift the blockade we need to end the crimes that are happening all across the country that a number of endemic splits side that coronavirus and yemen you know that qatar outbreak of there some many other issues that need to be resolved in the country so we did we hope that this 2 weeks cease fire would hold but we know from previous experiences that neither side now that with these militia and or of the how you know Saudi Led Coalition had heard to the agreements they either agreed to or you know we know that from the sweden talk. A few years ago that they greet to release that detainees but they did and and end up doing that so this is coming in a time where there is an International Pressure to make sure that yemenis have access to. Medicare equipments you know the outbreak could happen in any time in the country of the outbreak of the cholera i mean of corona fires so we have a difficult situation remember again this war has been going on for over a half decades and yet many need access to food and medicine and this is not taking place at this time in history and what to action can we expect for him to think. Well at this point i think i just read a little while ago from that. Spokesperson saying that they will not discontinue the war they will continue the war as long as a blockade is not leftist so its a Crystal Clear sign that our which is it has some sense and some logic to it that what would the yemenis do with 2 weeks ceasefire when the blockade us and in place when the kind of people cannot go in and i would side of the country when people cannot receive food or medicine from the outside world you know this is a nonsense sort of p. R. Move by the saudi u. A. E. Let coalition not going to serve anyone in the ground and not going to do anything and not like it like i said yemenis are looking forward to end the war to end the blockade to restore some sort of normal life back in the country which is not going on right now at this point so the end of this what we all need is to end the work you mentioned that with the way its been going on just bring us up to date with the latest fighting or it seems to have been an uptick in the last few days which is largely gone unnoticed partly because of the Global Coverage of the of coronavirus. Thats correct i mean yemenis are you know 7 and a daily bases is declared yemen is declared by the International Community in the u. N. As the worst humanitarian situation crises in the world manmade crises by the Saudi Led Coalition by the these by all the players and to the watch of the International Community including the u. N. And the you you want to get a council so this is the time what everyone around the world must feel yemen what yemenis have been going through for the last 5 years weve been ended the same exact been damaged. You know diseases are a complete stain stay at home no access to food or medicine and so i think the world should feel yemen at this point and what we being going are what we being gone through for the past 5 years and extend a helping hand to basically and the work and a supply and the saudi luck cullison with weapons make sure that everyone is brought back to the peace table to the beast negotiation and make sure the yemeni people and spray ssion is as met in any kind of negotiation Going Forward but no i think the world must be a lot of that point here in qatar we thank you very much indeed for joining us now the number of confirmed career virus infections in the United States is supposed to 400000 its the worst affected country in the world almost 13000 people have died there after contracting the virus but present on one trauma says the u. S. Will soon have more ventilators than it needs to help those suffering and was also threatened to end funding for the World Health Organization saying it failed in its response to the outbreak and was too focused on china head of virgins he has defended his handling of the pandemic urging governments not to politicize the virus the focus of all Political Parties should be to save the people. Please dont politicize this virus. It exploits the differences you have at the National Level if you want to be exploited and if you want to have many more body bags then you do it if you dont want many more body bags then you different from politicizing it lets go to mike hanna in washington d. C. Mike what reaction has there been to these latest remarks from the head of the. Well i think as yet from President Trump there have been some momentous Political Developments in the course of the day the end to the campaign of a major president ial contender Bernie Sanders but there has been a response from the white house virus consultant Deborah Burks who says that the white house needs to look at the timeline of reporting from china to the w. H. O. Now she did concede that the w. H. O. Is reliant on the data it receives but shes insistent that the administration will look at this timeline at what stage did the w. H. O. Receive information from china what the nature of that information was and whether there was any leg in terms of the w h os reporting based on the data that it had received from china at the very outbreak of the standard mic and it took us to the latest numbers from the United States. Well latest numbers continue to be exceedingly bleak particularly in new york state which has once again recorded its highest number of fatalities in a single day the governor of the state of new york pointing out that now twice as many people have died in new york state as were killed during the tragic of 911 so basically the death toll remains on the up and also of great concern in new york state and the new york city in particular is the fact that as the mayor is saying a number of people who are dying at home and not one of the hospital facilities may not be being included in the official recording of fatalities this raises the possibility that the death rates that we are seeing in new york city and new york state as a whole may be undercut to may not be completely accurate so all of these factors together a great great concern are the hotspots remain throughout the United States although obviously new york state is the most seriously affected but counting for some half of the deaths that have occurred in the United States but at the same time is on a number of these hotspots illinois louisiana and certainly there remains the greatest concern that the pandemic has not yet reached an apex that they are still very hard days ahead mike hanna thank you very much indeed.
