H. O.

Think people not really follow their instructions they shit. Am i happy about it you know do whatever we need to do here to stop the virus i dont think the household things are the fact is that it can go with. Other people on from the house a bit and a concert size with bands such as may make sense nationally in the u. K. Infection rates are going in the wrong direction daily new cases number in the thousands with experts saying the truth could be in the 10s of thousands and after Prime Minister bars johnson admitted Testing Capacity isnt good enough the Health Secretary not for the 1st time appeared to blame the public when he appeared before parliament the challenge is that demand has gone up faster and they can say on the other side no its not what they call defy the facts and the most important thing for everybody across the country to hear from all of their elected representatives if they are interested in helping this country get through this pandemic is that if you have symptoms test if you dont have a sentence please do not come forward to get a test unless youre specifically britains far from the only european nation worried about rising infections and deaths thats prompted the World Health Organization to issue a new warning to governments not to reduce quarantine periods from its recommended 14 days in the spring and early summer we were able to see the impact of strict look down measures.

These numbers reflect more comprehensive testing it also shows a lot of the rates of transmission across the region in italy the Alitalia Airline is now trying to domestic coronavirus free flights per day passengers are offered a covered 19 test at the airport before flying the results come within a half an hour only those tested negative can fly here in the u.

Speak to julie facials an associate Research Professor of microbiology and immunology at Georgetown Medical university scott from washington very good to have you with us mr so just how concerning is this virus uptake in europe is this a much fear 2nd wave thats happening. I think that in europe were definitely seeing clear increases in cases at a rate even exceeding what many countries saw earlier in the summer in june and july so. Its difficult to say that this is the 2nd wave many countries are still in what looks like the 1st wave but it definitely is a resurgence after a little bit of respite from the climbing rates of new cases but why are we seeing this new surge w. H. O. Says a number of cases has increased by 10 percent in some European Countries for example weekly cases are expected to exceed those reported when the pandemic peaked in march in europe what exactly do the numbers reflect is it a case that theres been more testing being done or an alarming rate of the transmission of the virus. I think one of the things we have to understand is that there are it is not whether the pandemic is global the drivers of new cases in different communities may be very different and reflect the nature of the communities and the kind of meeting and mingling of people that is happening in those communities in many places after a summer lockdown measures in which people. Restricted their travel restricted interacting with others socially the lockdown measures were able to slow the spread of the virus and dramatically in some cases slow the speed at which new cases appeared but as communities began to slow those rates and to lift the measures and become more conducive in terms of being able to get out of the house being able to dine in restaurants being able to mix socially as well as going back to work and back to school were seeing people mix in in new ways now were seeing exposures surge again as people who have been communities that have been quite strict just a few weeks ago begin to relax some of those measures and the results in many places its a resurgence in cases and more than 30000000 infections now recorded around the world with nearly you know 940000 people died what about the virus strain is weve heard that is slowly mutating but is it getting more dangerous as it have the potential to evolve into an even more dangerous to rection. Researchers are very carefully tracking the changes that we see accumulate in the virus over time to see if they are associated with more severe disease like other viruses that are based on this kind of nucleic acid called or in a they are whats called error prone they do accumulate and mutations and changes but so far it doesnt hear that there are tremendous differences in how to viruses or how likely it is to cause disease based on those changes and it is being watched very carefully thank you so much for talking to us julie fish associate Research Professor at George Town University in washington thank you for your time thank you for lynn israel protesters have taken to the streets of tel aviv rallying against a 2nd nationwide coronavirus knock down which will begin on friday businesses are being forced to shut over the jewish new year because of a rise in cases many shop owners say they want to survive this time around after being forced to close in march israel is one of the 1st countries simply meant a nation wide lockdown for a 2nd time its expected to last 3 weeks in the u. S. New york citys mayor has once again delayed children returning to classrooms you to a shortage of staff and safety concerns most students were meant to return on monday mayor bill de blasio says it looks more likely to happen at the start of october teachers unions raise concern schools did not have the required staffing capacity. And in asia meanwhile millions of childrens education has been disrupted and people in remote communities dont have Internet Access so teachers are going the extra mile to support their students but as jessica washington reports some tangay iran even those close to the capital a struggling. Into the west teaming it seems nothing can get between these teachers and their students from monday to friday they travel to meet them. And although this school is closed because of covert 19 precautions class is still in session. And we did a research we cannot do Online Learning because theres no Internet Access and people dont have Computers Laptops or mobile devices the teachers go from village to village using makeshift outdoor classrooms with covert 900 Safety Measures in mind they say they are trying their best and limited resources. We are thankful that even though the road to a village is bad and its very far away the teach is still willing to come and teach us schools in this Community Like many across indonesia have been shot since march the teachers took it upon themselves to stop visiting the villages of the students knowing that without Internet Access and often no electricity Online Learning was never a viable option for most children here. The pandemic has disrupted the education of millions of indonesian children and its not just remote provinces experiencing difficulties with Distance Learning but cities close to the capital as well. In tiger on the western border with jakarta schools are closed and these children have no Internet Access at home. The local government has set up an internet hotspot in this classroom the children to do their homework. That he will not it we started Online Learning in march i really miss my school and i would like to go back the Education Ministry says its the need to change the system. Before we already have a plan that we dont like 3 years olds will be connected by the meaning that they should have electors for teachers without those resources its a challenging time because i think teachers a working twice as hard were being overworked. Some schools have reopened but for many teachers theres no sign when the challenge of teaching without a classroom. Just to washington aljazeera tuggeranong indonesia. The u. S. City of portland has seen protests over Police Brutality every night for months President Donald Trump s portrayed the city as a chaotic battleground full on a case to bolster his no and order platform well now the Justice Department has reportedly been pushing prosecutors to charge fine in protest as where the valley used sedition law rob reynolds for some pardons. Portland has become the flashpoint of americas culture wars. There have been well over 100 consecutive days of black lives matter protests demanding justice for george floyd Briana Taylor and other black People Killed by police think you are. Right why no mother i heard george drake must live. Right here does george oh oh oh my god what are you doing President Donald Trump sent in federal Law Enforcement in late july a stance oblique to protect a federal courthouse that intensified the protests some of which went from peaceful to violent. Police arrested schools of people in recent days protesters say the number of demonstrators has decreased sharply but the trumpet ministration is contemplating a new legal crackdown in response to the protests here and in other cities the u. S. Attorney general william barr has reportedly urged federal prosecutors to bring charges of sedition against some of the people involved thats a rarely invoked federal law designed to punish people who try to overthrow the government of the United States. The legal scholars question whether such charges would hold up in court on and if you look at the most recent examples where sedition has been charged under this act its not been successful i think juries and judges alike tend not like to convict on this unless there is real hard evidence to show that there is an imminent threat the government. Experts say aggressive prosecution could stifle legitimate free speech and political expression which are protected under the u. S. Constitution i think the threat of the erast alone would be sufficient to make some people feel it is not safe for me to go out on the street and exercise my 1st amendment rights and the thought that the government would yield its power in a way that would curtail or chill or silence that type of speech should be really frustrating and upsetting threatening to us as american citizens trump is using the protest to drum up his law and order platform during the Election Campaign but a report by Princeton University shows 93 percent of all protests since floyds death have been peaceful rob reynolds aljazeera portland still ahead on aljazeera.
