Positive for more on this we will turn to if that ill be in london for more is that. I sure hope at 90 you know decided to use self isolate inside 10 downing street and late last week we understand that there were reports that his assistant continued most since in just the march after around 7 days they start to clear up but the Prime Minister after about a week conceded shows that it images are isolated and then we had the news that last night to run the same time that the queen was adjusting the country in which prerecorded message Boris Johnson was taken to hospital Joseph Hospital which is just down the road just across the river thames from where the house of parliament and downing street a located now initially the line coming out of government was that Boris Johnson was in a Good Condition he was having a comfortable last night spent in a hospital there were many others especially sources suggesting that he wasnt as well as the government were suggesting that they had to go to the hospital on the sunday night meant that his death case or his situation deteriorates it well it turns out that earlier this evening he has been moved from the ward in the hospital to intensive care and of course that means a significant step down incentives of his well being in terms of his condition and the french president sent a tweet out saying the. He wishes Boris Johnson a speedy recovery now in this situation what comes next Boris Johnson has to all intents and purposes been incapacitated so the foreign secretary dominic roth is also the status minister state essentially he is the Prime Minister of defense in the east stepping up and will be annexing Prime Minister if you will want out Boris Johnson seeks to get over this illness there are of course no reports or any of the attention yet as to whether mr johnson is going to stay there how long what period of time is going to be there is he going to get any spit from now and he is it intensive care which suggests that the Prime Minister is he not in a good state thats all and a lot of controversy as well of course is that there have been reports that many hospitals in london have been simply overwhelmed by the number of patients and their charts to treat so again will or is johnsons treatment at that hospital mean that somebody else will get access to an i. C. U. Better sense of care unit bed those who question has to be but so now dominic grow up for all intents and purposes is the acting Prime Minister of the United Kingdom wow isa lee live for us in london of course we send Boris Johnson our well wishes as well thank you. I covered 19 obviously continuing to tighten its grip around the world as of today the total number of global infections now more than 1300000. 00 cases and reported deaths now at 73000. 00 with recovered cases that a shocking took 75000 now leading the way the u. S. With more than 350000 confirmed cases with reported deaths topping more than 10000 today and recover cases almost 19000 and taking a closer look here at the United States copa 19 continues to batter the economy as well this as hell. Experts ask to bring back roosevelt style era programs with we hunt on to find treatments one industry under pressure our pharmaceuticals theres a lot of Research Going on but there are also hurdles which may slow innovation like patents heres arties alex mileage with more. Of a coronavirus is expanding. And so is the worlds need for a vaccine or a cure many on. Terra Jane Langston is a recovering covert 19 patient from the u. K. I mean is very painful ive described it as having like get lost in your throat glassine you as long as. You know and the fact that you cant breathe is so so scary to save time and help people like langston experts are looking at treatments that already exist for other ailments that me help in the fight against covert 19 this puts one industry in the spotlight pharmaceuticals with Research Going on around the globe many are optimistic about the discovery of a vaccine or cure in the near future and maybe just be medicine that already exists drugs like hydrochloric women which the u. S. President has high hopes for i would love to go to a laboratory and spend a couple of years testing something we dont have time we dont have 2 hours because there are people dying right now if it does help great if it doesnt help we gave it a shot there is however one major hurdle when it comes to using existing medications and thats patents used to protect the making using or selling of inventions from copycats patents are important to give patent holders control over their innovations on which they often spend millions to develop something which is common in the Pharma Industry but there is one problem patents can also slow progress some would argue in this case patents create a broad block for scientists around the world who are desperately working towards treatment for covert 19. Corporations can voluntarily remove or ease patents and some governments are saying if they dont they can be forced to germanys parliament has voted to install powers to suspend patent rights a tool last used by the country in 1949 has for the u. S. Lawmakers have never invoked such legislation but in the Current Situation and under mounting pressure from states that could change fundamentally however right now companies can choose their own priorities it is a profit or is it people the reality is for many corporations shareholders come 1st currently the drug ramdev severe is being tested to treat covert 19 further along in testing than many others the drug maker gilliatt has received a lot of heat over the medication gilliatt obtained exclusive access to the potential coronavirus treatment and critics claim the company is trying to cash in from the crisis while the company has promised to increase production of the drug and offer it for compassionate use theres some hope it will allow others to produce generic versions of the deaths of ear giving access to more people but right now that doesnt seem likely the potential for major long term profit from the drug may be just too appealing some are saying making a profit is ok but if a company chooses to price gouge the government should step in gilliatt is promising that that will be the case gilliatt isnt the only company out there with a potential treatment for the virus chicago based holds the patent for an each i. V. Drug called collect truck which is currently being tested as a weapon against covert 19 obvious has suspended its global patent rights on collector a giving free access to its innovation the drug is being tested by multiple clinics to fight the corona virus and other pharmaceutical companies which do not have drugs in the running are also trying to pitch in. A number of industry insiders are collaborating to fund preventative measures and treatments for covert 90 for one the american multinational engine is working with partners in hopes of discovering therapeutic antibodies from recovered coronavirus patients the canadian wing of the company has gone so far as to encourage employees many who are medical experts to volunteer in the fight against the corona virus during Company Hours you know the effort to find treatments is real and the push is unprecedented but if some pharmaceutical Companies Choose to raise blockades it might be the government that has to knock them down for r t m l its my. Current Economic Economic stimulus checks will begin being doled out pretty soon as we continue to watch record high unemployment claims being filed today outside the white house economic adviser larry kudlow spoke to reporters about how that economic stimulus is coming along i still believe given our assistance package and hope that maybe prayer that were at a 4 day week period we can get a pretty good snap back ok good snap back that thats my oh. Well. You know. The center the center we begin to reopen the faster thats not taxed and thats the rule that i think most economists would agree with but the line coming from President Trump and his advisors is the same americas security coronavirus cannot be worse than the virus itself so joining us to discuss is us cohost and swan so ben there are 2 programs i believe right now that are under way as a result of this 2 trillion dollar stimulus bill what are those programs for businesses and how do they differ. Yes so the main one thats out there right now is the p. P. P. The payroll protection provision which essentially is set up as a way for businesses to protect their payrolls by going to the government and getting essentially stimulus checks to cover about 2 and a half months worth of salaries and also utilities and rent or mortgage in fact so far theres been several 1000000000. 00 worth of applications that have filed larry kudlow spoke about that today as well listen to this. 38000000000. And 130000 loans from 2400 lenders. Big banks include a lot of its Community Banks so just to answer your question. Lets see what happens i mean our job is to execute what weve got so youve got. Assistance going out to 175000000 people. So what youre hearing there is that basically an explanation that says that since friday when the p. P. P. Those. Programs under the cares act that was what was signed by congress the 2 trillion dollars opened up those applications opened up on friday and then theyve been kind of moving through friday and then on monday and so far about 38000000000. 00 has been applied for so far so thats a pretty significant amount remember theres about 350000000000. 00 thats been set aside for businesses so thats whats been applied for so far the other program by the way is an s. B. A. Program that helps and since about 10000. 00 to a business if they have suffered some kind of economic collapse essentially because of some kind of emergency that the thing that these 2 big programs have in common than the law is that if the government comes back after this is over with and says you use the money the way we told you to these are forgivable loans you wont have to repay them if you use the money in a way youre not supposed to then youll be on the hook to pay him back ok so there are definitely some Strings Attached right so now we know that the unemployment numbers just from the past week were way worse than anybody expected somewhere around 6 and a half 1000000 people do you think its going to get much worse from here. Well it certainly could i mean in the last 2 weeks was a centrally seen 10000000 people file for unemployment thats an incredible number we may see another 3 to 6000000 people again this week do that but remember these are not permanent unemployment situations right now if we keep things moving along and people do get back to work so one thing that kudlow says something the president keeps saying there is truth to it the sooner the economy gets to come back the less permanent these job losses will be people right now are filing because they have 0 hours you can file for unemployment if you have no hours but if they get hours back if they start working again then theyll get their jobs but the problem is the longer it goes on the harder it is for businesses to come back because they will be able to afford to come back so that its a balance right now between hurry up and get getting businesses back open again and not doing it before we essentially hit those peak numbers which according to you know some reports say that the country as a whole will hit its peak at about 11 days will see if thats true and then real quickly lastly what about the many people who might fall between the cracks like some of these undocumented workers that we have here in the u. S. Theyre not going to get a piece of that stimulus. Thats right theyre not in fact not only are they going to get a piece of that stimulus but there are a lot of people who might not get a piece of that stimulus remember you have to go to a local bank in order to get this its not being issued by the s. B. A. Itself banks are handling it you have to go to your local bank with whom i would assume you have some kind of relationship so anyone whos unbanked is not going to be able to get this probably and you have to be able to provide to them document showing that you deserve to get this money you do have to consider the fact that so far when theres 350000000000. 00 set aside and only 38. 00 billions accounted for thats about 10 percent of those funds so far that have been accounted for so you know theres a long way to go and theres a lot of people who will get missed out and remember the other part of the population thats supposed to be getting money in the form of stimulus checks that are mel directly to people who make less than 75000. 00 a year couples thats 150000. 00 a year but those checks there are reports saying those checks may not arrive until august in some cases wow so what do you do in the meantime a lot to figure out one thank you so much for that update you got it. Right americans are calling on president from to introduce and after they are style new deal to keep the country from entering another Great Depression were going to discuss this and later at a sports h. Q. Regina hamm takes us to russia where one team takes the game of soccer to a pretty muddy place take a look. As we head into the bitcoin singularity its the single most important thing that ever happened to humanity sans the creation or invention or just come real fire. The world is driven by a dream shaped by one person. Who dares thinks. We dare to ask. And were going to fulfill the repeated purposes of politics to the people i promise you know its all bots to. Be a really really really oh. Now you want to 1st read that. No. Longer. All the. 10000000 people over the span of 2 weeks applied for Unemployment Benefits as coronavirus had americans pocketbooks with numerous layoffs and furloughs as businesses struggled to keep afloat now americans are calling on President Trump to introduce an f. D. R. Style new deal to keep the country from entering another Great Depression but as our next guest has said before on this very show trump is no f. D. R. That man is larry king host of politicking right here on our t. V. Hes going to weigh in on all of this larry you are a Great Depression era baby you were too young though to remember f. D. R. Implementing the new deal but you certainly became a beneficiary of those policies later and the last time i spoke with you you said trump is no f. D. R. And youve known the guy since the 1980 s. But. Me you couldnt if there was no one ever do you are one of the low which president 1st time she was allowed to in the midst of a Great Depression what did that need to go on so youre always going to be wary when you get words where he said something you could never stand which is your only thing we have to fear is fear itself you lead the country to what we did was you leave go to america for putting americans to work. In jobs in america so americans build post office and they build the Memorial Stadium in baltimore and they build highways so they are also productive again an american investor that mad and then along came a break if it could be called a break world war 2 and world war 2 took this completely out of the past depression and to an economic boom but had rose will not lead i dont know where wed have gone and what what i what we lack today and i get personal against. Is we lag a degree of leadership andrew cuomo show me the ring is the ties that bind bind us together who forms with us into the future and right now theres a decline in that and all we have is i see no management at the top larry kudlow is. In the forecasting the same thing for the. Strong comes out every day i gotta stop coming out i dont think he helps the situation i mean it this is a very very sad story and larry being that he claims to be this businessman similar to f. D. R. Shouldnt he see this as an opportunity to become perhaps the biggest jobs creator in history or do you think trump is going to back down to big corporations here. Biggest myth weve had of it the better the businessman the better the president f. D. R. Or a businessman he was governor of new york and then the course he entered politics and jury and maybe. Herbert hoover a businessman failed as president businessman live one of the keys the admin that is businessmen depend on a profit thats how they deal with. Politicians dont have to look at possibly a little good friday night and shell much we made sure that coming at it from different vantage points but this is man thinks of business and hes fine when business is ok but when business is not ok he does not have big answers and thats the tragedy with going through at the moment and larry another historical note here that a lot of people dont realize it at the arc initially had universal health care as part of the new deal but he agreed to drop it to a later date and discuss it later because he wanted to rush it through congress a lot of democrats have been trying to make this a reality ever sence to no avail do you think this virus might force the discussion and perhaps make universal Health Care Even a reality. Of convenience the step up from Obamacare Norman thomas the socialist candidate for president 1932 we will all be footballs. National health care fact people mold and let them Different Things should jemma them are not a lot i think were just a step away from accepting the fact that hell is a right. You are entitled to good health and therefore you cant be turned away because you cant afford a prescription or you cant afford to go to the hospital we we have to come to the camp socialism have capitalism work we need a Better Health care system that we have. And larry lastly
