Europe professional sports returns to south korea but fans arent yet to be taken out to the ballgame. Hello thank you for joining us a senior washington official who was removed from his key role in the u. S. Corner virus response has attacked the trumpet ministrations handling of the crisis and accused his former agency of an abuse of authority or gross mismanagement dr rick bright of was the Deputy Assistant health and Human Services secretary in a whistleblower complaint filed on tuesday he says he was reassigned because he tried to prioritize science and safety over political expediency with more on the story im joined live by khanna in washington d. C. So mike this broke in the past hour or so what else can you tell us about dr brights complaint. Well dr bryant was a director of the biomedical advice and Development Authority otherwise known as barbara certainly a highly senior official he was a centrally in charge of developing vaccines for any virus that would hit the United States now he has filed an official complaint with the office of the special counsel the oas see an 89. 00 page complaint in which he outlines all the reasons he feels he was unfairly removed from his job as director of barter and it certainly is a litany of complaints among the most important things he says is that in january he was sending out warnings to the health and Human Services including the secretary warning of the virus warning of the severity of what was to come he also sent out a series of emails insisting that the National Stockpile of masks of ventilators org mentored because they were going to be needed in the weeks ahead it certainly is a diverse state and complained along with the fact that he specifically mentions that he was sidelined from his job because of his opposition to the use of hydroxy chloroquine as and or as a treatment for the corona virus now this was a drug that President Trump had touted at a number of news briefings however the director of the Vaccine Department of the administration making very clear he objected to the use of the drug he outlines why it was not if da approved there had been a donation given from a bay a big Chemical Company of millions of hydrox of chloroquine drugs however dr bright said these were sourced in india and pakistan from facilities that the f. D. A. Has not inspected so certainly there is a litany of complaints within this document he is the most senior official to publicly criticize the administration for. Its handling of the corona virus and weve just learned in the next few minutes that congress is intent on subpoena to appear before a Congressional Committee next week of the interesting to see how that develops and currently as this news comes out donald trump is actually not in washington hes in arizona and he just held a sort of News Conference without any questions there was he doing there. Well this is the 1st time hes publicly left the white house since the end of march it is part of what is a very Clear Strategy by the trumpet ministration to push the opening up of states to lift the mitigating measures in an effort to rebalance the economy thats been absolutely dormant for a period of weeks now so President Trump publicly getting on a plane flying to arizona hes held a meeting with the native americans there signed an order about Domestic Violence among native American Communities and of course the main point of is a visit it would appear was a visit to a mosque manufacturing facility a Massive Corporation called honey world which has changed its development at that particular plant to develop millions of mosques and 95 marks for the protection of civilians however once again some point out this merely highlights of fact that there were not enough masks in the 1st place but President Trump above all obviously wanting to be publicly seen to be out and about pressing for more states to reopen to drop a more mature gaging measures in a bid to get the economy going again however once again medical experts have pointed out this is a very dangerous tactic indeed that there is still not sufficient testing protocols in place to say free open states with a full knowledge that the virus is not going to research i can there with the latest on all those developments from washington d. C. Mike thank you. Its going to india now which is launching one of the Worlds Largest repatriation missions to help hundreds of thousands of its nationals stranded across the world by Coronavirus Travel restrictions passenger jets and warships will be used to bring workers home. There are an estimated 70000000 indians who Work Overseas now some of those who desperately want to return home will be able to have gone to the Indian Government has given the go ahead to bring back indian citizens stuck abroad the travel will be done either by airplanes or naval ships all flights into india was suspended in late march because of the coronavirus pandemic since then those affected by the restrictions have been vocal in calling for a change of policy if you look at the 2 identical uploading missions and the piece because they have been flooded by the victims what in saying that the. Other countries have been thinking oh that is an act why arent you bringing us back now so this is basically a dive of dignity in. The Indian Government says arriving passengers will be screened segregated and quarantined but critics are warning the virus may still spread. According to the information from the Central Government people be put on a plane without testing 1st with or they have coronavirus this is dangerous a plane has more than 200 people if one or 2 have the virus all the passengers will be in trouble the civics the whole country and raises the possibility of the disease spreading further there are also concerns that poorly paid migrants may not be able to afford a ticket home which could cost the equivalent of more than 200. 00 from the gulf and more than a 1000. 00 from the u. S. Could look at subsidizing or are only just going to be used to get specially for people who get 95 to be people who do not have the economic ability of buying but use of ticket home is estimated there are up to a 1000000 indians waiting to go home in what will be one of the Worlds LargestInternational Repatriation missions the turia gate and be al jazeera. The u. K. Has recorded another 693 deaths taking its total past to 29000 and making it the country with the worse the death toll in europe however the foreign minister dominic rob says that accurate comparisons between countries cant be made until the crisis is over i dont think well get a real verdict on how well countries have done until the pandemic is over in particularly until weve got comprehensive International Data on all cause mortality but i think theres 2 points id make about the way the u. K. Has approached things there are different ways of counting deaths as we know weve had that debate in this country we now published data includes all deaths in all settings and not all countries do that so im not sure that the International Comparison works unless you can youre reliably know that all countries are measuring in the same way and it also depends on how good friendly countries are in gathering their statistics. Well as john holl explains from london the figures dont tell the full story. The numbers by direct comparison dont tell us all that much what they do though is fuel questions which are being asked here almost every day of the government now or quite why this country appears to have been so ill prepared for this epidemic having had a good couple of weeks to look at with horror at the time of course what was happening in italy a country that had far less time to prepare and also a wider questions about quite why western countries in general in europe and in the United States were far less prepared or appear to be than Asian Countries take south korea for instance after all of this only recording just in excess of 250 deaths from coronavirus so they feel all the questions they dont necessarily provide very much of. The British Public are looking and listening all the time to pronouncements from government in the Daily Briefing and elsewhere from scientists and so on about when and it might be appropriate to start lifting the lockdown that speed in place in this country and others there looking of course at the reproductive rate of the infections from cocoa covered 19 looking for that to remain below one this famous are figure the number of people that carries with corona virus infect it is currently below one but not sufficiently below want to give them much wiggle room but theres an enormous amount of pressure from industry for business on the government to restart the economy the war is that if you go too far down the road in terms of saving lives you end up going too far down the road in terms of being able to save the economy and that ultimately that causes more problems than it helps down the line. Russia has reported the largest number of cases of recurring a virus in europe or the total number of infections now exceeding 150000 Health Workers there have been complaining about their working conditions after 2 doctors fell out of a window and died at the reports. What digging graves instant petersburg russia 2nd city victims of covered 19 a scene thats becoming more common on tuesday the country reported the highest number of new coronavirus cases in europe and now there are disturbing questions over Health Workers whove raised the alarm about their working conditions but after 2. 100 this video on twitter shows dr alexander sure left off on the left and a colleague was explaining how she had been forced to keep working despite having covered 19 the colleague previously criticised the Hospital Management for protective gear shortages and was questioned by police for allegedly spreading fake news but another video made 3 days later apparently at the hospital seems to show surely pove by now being treated for the virus retracting their complaints.
