Government actively avoided investigating russian interference in the brits and referendum. Irans Supreme Leader calls on the visiting iraqi Prime Minister to end the u. S. Presence in his country. So then u. S. President donald trump has warned that the corona Virus Outbreak is likely to get worse before it gets better it is a month apart sure from the optimistic picture hes projected so far even as cases continue to rise in many states well trump was speaking of his newly resumed daily Coronavirus Briefing the 1st since april the public to wear masks and promise to deliver a vaccine as soon as possible United States is the worst affected country in the world more than 141000 whatever 3800000 cases. To join a virus is a vicious and dangerous illness but weve learned a great deal about it and who it targets we are in the process of developing a strategy thats going to be very very powerful weve developed as we go along some areas of our country are doing very well others are doing less well it will probably unfortunately get worse before it gets better something i dont like saying about things but thats the way it is i want to analyze some of what the president said we can use an old radio host in a country contributor to the washington diplomats newspaper joins us via skype from washington d. C. Welcome to the program so the 3 months away from the election and numbers of 40 i guess is one way of reaching a wider public what did you make of what you civil of course we were all bracing ourselves we were remember the last time President Donald Trump spoke before that podium regarding the corona virus where he instructed americans that possibly injecting bleach could actually help cure them of the code 1000 virus we hadnt heard from the president since stands of course many of us were looking for a reality style presentation that we would get but today was very different we saw a president who stayed on script who was far more certain do than we usually get and someone who again attempted to tout his administration successes rather than harp on the failures and of course it was very different than what were used to seeing from the president in fact going so far as to say things will get worse before we get better and thats something we have not heard from the president in fact if you go back to a interview he gave this past weekend to fox news the president talked about how the virus would go away and so we saw something very d different today you know Health Experts on how the 95. Irrate in fact that was something that was very striking especially when the president was axed about that and he said that dr dr birch was right outside the door and so its interesting that the president did not want to have the medical experts there and its important given that nearly 2 thirds of americans not only do not approve of the president s handling of the virus but said that they do not trust him to speak about whats happening in real time in the country and when so many people so many millions of americans now trust dr tony more than president down the truck you would think having at least some of those experts next to him to bolster some of the arguments that he was making but again this is a president who tends to rely on his own good his own judgment and we saw that take place in real time at this briefing given this is quite a high Risk Strategy for the president i mean do you want to give him the catastrophe of the previous briefings you know the injecting disinfectants of will that you just alluded to. Do you think this is a high risk for him. This is this is absolutely high risk and i would go so far as to say no reward the president right now is drowning in the polls were less than 100 days away from the election and the virus continues to grow exponentially across this country Many Americans simply do not have the faith and full confidence that that this president can lead the United States out of this crisis and right now people dont want to hear platitudes people want to see results and President Donald Trump even when he announced that these briefings will continue he talked about ratings we didnt see those experts standing next to the president so clearly the president saw today more ass political theater than trying to reassure americans that he alone can lead the country out of this pandemic and given all of this do you think the election thats coming up in november is it bidens to lose or is it just to start saying that sort of thing well i think its too early to say at this moment again we still have not held the conventions. Former Vice President joe biden still has to name a a Vice President pick so theres still so much left to be held debates to be held there still so much left to take place before you can determine but when we look at the polls youre looking at a snapshot in time and right now what were seeing is a president who just has an either an unwillingness or an inability to simply turn things around and when you look at not just this pandemic but where things stand particularly in terms of Race Relations the country has moved past the president and right now the president needs to try to find a way to gain regain his footing not only with the American People with more importantly his base because thats where the president now is beginning to hemorrhage some of those key votes are great to get your perspective on this is a thanks very much indeed. From washington thank you. Now nearly 2 dozen potential vaccines for a growing virus under various stages of human testing worldwide and at least 2 are being conducted in brazil one is a chinese made drug thats being tested on 9000. 00 volunteers the other is being developed by Oxford University which has also begun testing in sao paolo to raise about has this report. That denise have run shes was one of the 1st brazilians to receive the oxford vaccine against with 19 shes a dentist in hospital and her exposure to the virus and they need to prevent the spread of the disease is what made her want to become a volunteer for the Clinical Trials this case would be of us since receiving this vaccine i have had no adverse effects no symptoms or reactions i keep a clinical diary for the researchers and inform them of my temperature i continue working with the same level of exposure to the virus and working full time providing full assistance to this coated patient last month the oxford trials got underway in 3 faces and their brazilian government has signed a letter of intention to have access to around 100000000. 00 doses but its not the only vaccine that is being tested on monday the governor of so powerful an ounce 20000 scene of active x. T. S. From china had arrived in brazil sticky testing is now underway and is expected to last for 3 months. This study is controlled by the institute and were not just participating it will become an open study since we have the 1st evidence on the efficacy of this vaccine and that will allow us to bring the vaccine to the brazilian people quick 3 we have the possibility to become the 1st country in the world to use this vaccine on a large scale so this is a historical moment. More than 2000000 people are infected with a virus in brazil and it has killed at least 80000 others while the testing could one day prove promising some consumer groups awarded to brazil could be left out and thats why there are calls to vote on a law on compulsory licensing only licenses and the leverage is kind of. Large scale access and pursue should adopt a license and especially the love you its just bursting congress which is 62. 00. Train which is i love you that says that each and every technology useful to. Today and they make. Are subjected to. Compulsory license in other words its nice that no technology should be undermined openly but many say its unlikely that government. Would support the law because he has downplayed the threat of covert 19 brazil is a country of over 200000000 people a vaccine is crucial to help save lives. And to see the.
