So they welcome you watching out international this saturday even if shes gone on a clock a mosque ok lets start with some numbers then on the outbreak because confirmed cases of nih past 2300000 more than 158000 people have died from the virus most of those fatalities are in europe and also the u. S. So far just over 588000 patients have recovered from the disease. Now the corona Virus Outbreak in germany does appear to be under control after a month long lockdown and according to the countrys Health Minister germany has a much lower death rate than other major European Countries and restrictions on movement are being partially lifted and some shops reopening is there really is next week however a Government Spokesperson has stressed that caution is needed skip. The statistics there are no guarantees that the infection kovel keep flattening out there are also risks and when we take these small careful steps into opening up we must keep an eye on the infection curve and what it means for our Health System and our hospitals. All as in many countries germany shut down has devastated the hospitality sector interest in restaurant workers there says empty tables and chairs on the Central Square to highlight the crisis that they are dealing with and the munich people held a safe distance demonstration calling the lockdown disproportionate now while most of the population is staying safe refugees in shelters are much higher risk is peter all over now reports. As germany gets set to ease coronavirus restrictions not everywhere in the country has been successful in stopping the spread of the virus some Refugee Centers have seen a spike in the number of cases at one in the south of the country almost half of the 600 residents tested positive this week due for mood and isolation we suspect that maybe people with coby 19 have been in the facility for a long time and that theyve shown no symptoms of the disease and that they could have passed on the virus the facility in but involved in bird houses people from nigeria iraq syria and turkey who are waiting to have their asylum applications process the action taken by authorities to this localized outbreak is causing concern theyre seeing these people as a kind of threat and danger it seems to be an acceptable strategy to pack the Police Outside and make sure nobody comes in and nobody comes out another center not far from frankfurt theres a similar picture with around 60 residents testing positive out of 170 in the far northeast of the country the Refugee Council of mecklenburg West Pomerania has voiced some serious concerns about an Asylum Application Center on their patch we have been bad they required minimum distance of 1. 5 to 2 meters cannot be maintained this is added and anyone who recklessly last people leave in a massacre mandation in this situation there have authorities in the region which just so happens to be represented in the book the start by chancellor Angela Merkel have been quick to rubbish criticism of the way corona virus is being tackled among asylum applicants in coordination with the Health Authorities every effort is being made to prevent the spread of infection within the countrys primary care facilities and in Community Commendation in the current emergency situation infection control. Asylum seekers and the population is a priority that comes as berlijn is quite rightly being praised for having tackled coronavirus nationally in a robust and fact based way on friday Health Minister yen spahn described the situation in germany as under control. We have moments to bring the Dynamic Growth back to linear growth the infection numbers have decreased significantly is bitchy with relative increases from day to day the outbreak has now become manageable and controllable again ultimately what the localized outbreaks in asylum sent to show is that if you drop your guard for just a moment when it comes to fighting or trying to stop the spread of this virus then it will be exploited peter all of our r. T. Berlin President Trump now says he expects between 60. 65 americans to die of covert 19 that is there a substantially less than his previous estimate of 100000 the president claims that the countrys infection rate is paid and hes revealed plans to to gradually ease the lock down his trinity chavis. White house pushing to get the economy moving again our approach outlines 3 phases in restoring our Economic Life we are not opening all at once but one careful step at a time issuing new guidelines to get the country up and running the 1st phase officials must see a 2 week decline in the number of people with covert symptoms and the percentage of people testing positive for the virus must also decrease than face to allowing all nonessential travel School Activities and elective surgeries to continue some states will be able to open up sooner than others. But hard hit new york and new jersey have to wait the state continues to see an increase in covert cases new York Governor Andrew Cuomo extending stay at home orders he calls new york pause until may 15th but it could be longer what is the final conclusion of this rb chapter i still believe it when we have a vaccine with more than 226000 infections and more than 16000 deaths new york is still seeing around 2000 new cases a day city remaining the epicenter of the outbreak officials working to open testing sites in the citys poorest and hardest hit communities so were talking about folks in some of the lowest income communities in the city people in communities of color that have borne the brunt of this crisis immigrant communities while Governor Cuomo is issuing an executive order directing all public and private labs in new york to coordinate with the department of health to ensure prioritizing of diagnostic testing he says thats still not enough to test the millions of people needed to reopen new yorks economy we dont have a testing system that can do this volume or there can be ramped up to do this von. We dont have a Public Health casting system by the way its de minimis if you look at what our Government Departments of health we need a clean. We did approach between the federal government and the states right now the main testing lab for the state can perform about 300 antibody tests per day while officials believe they can grow that number to 2000 test a day in the coming weeks with nearly 20000000 residents in new york the governor says the state needs all the help they can get from the federal government. Meanwhile u. S. Politicians continue to blame china for the pandemic and the republican senator Lindsey Graham has suggested that washington should punish beijing with sanctions. As the largest state sponsor of pandemics this is the 3rd or 4th pandemic that came out of china what should we do to the largest state sponsor of pandemics on the globe which is saying in china well since the coronavirus the page in december numerous conspiracy theories have the internet an idea that the virus was created in a Bio Weapons Lab and we and has gained widespread coverage in the us media. And his administration have been more than willing to few the speculation. That a lot of people are looking that seems that make sense they talk about a certain kind of bad but that was it in that area if you can believe this thats what theyre down to know is vats but that is not in that area that was in seoul that went zone it wasnt sold there that bat is 40 miles away so a lot of strange things are happening but there is a lot of investigation going on and were going to find out if we know they have this lab we know about the what markets we know that the virus itself did originate in so all those things come together are still a lot we dont know. Well a member of the White House Coronavirus task force though has to bunk the theory of the virus being created in a lab and in fact she here was a leading expert on Infectious Diseases said the passing of mutation shows the virus jump directly from an animal to be human meanwhile china has the u. S. To stop making claims with no scientific basis. Fishel to repeatedly stated that there is any evidence that you corona virus was produced 3 many well known medical experts in the world also believe the socalled liberal elite hypothesis has no scientific basis. British foreign secretary the anti china rhetoric coming from washington rob said that they can be no business as usual with beijing after this crisis and that hard questions gee need to be honest about how the outbreak started journalist believes the blame game being led by donald trump is merely a way of deflecting responsibility clearly what were seeing here are charges that are political in nature i mean trump has mishandled this whole crisis so. America has got a few cases having more cases than any other country in the world in a matter of 2 months and trump has been contradictory half hearted in effect saying one thing one moment and another thing another moment so this crisis began so clearly trying to strike out and distract attention from his own theres more record. By attacking china thats just plain as the evidence so far is that the the the allegations that theyre really fighting an uphill battle they have nothing to go on its religious based on pure anti chinese. Now the news that millions of Orthodox Christians around the world are celebrating easter today and the much anticipated ceremony has taken place in jerusalem well earlier today the holy fire was lit at the church of the hopes of poker that event happens each year inside a chapel in the center of the church which Orthodox Christian believers do consider to be that of christ traditionally thousands of pilgrims to travel to jerusalem to light candles from the flame of oh that obviously isnt happening this year the holy fire though has now made its way to the orthodox nations of russia and greece horsley reports now on the 70. The holy fire has always been a symbol of hope hope that the end of the world has not yet come but this easter the most significant religious holiday for some 300000000 people things are different this easter is different we will not go to our villages we will not barbecue in our yards we will not go to our churches and of course we will not gather in the homes of relatives and friends for us to continue bringing together this year we stay apart there are no could find a procession snow had examined kisses no joyous celebrations that christ has risen this is the main church where the miracle takes place but it is closed as part of a nationwide lockdown its all part of the governments attempt to push back on the coronavirus and as a result is banned all mess gatherings something that has the countrys Ultra Orthodox Jewish community up in arms. I do not think that right now. I all across the world churches urge people to pray and stay at home some churches even live stream through social media other Christian Communities celebrated easter 7 days ago with pope francis praying alone in st Peters Square many Christian Churches urge programs to. Spend this holy day at home. Now russia has registered more than 4700 coronavirus cases in the past 24 hours is this the highest single day increase so far and the death toll stands at 313 well here in moscow the mayor has updated to digital past system which had some glitches earlier in the week but is now fully automated skip taylor has more. 15th of april new measures wage to stay here in the capital which is suffering the brunt of the crude virus in russia essentially has been out of chasses which means that you need a passport everything specially to travel to and from what is now the must commit today announced that passes do will be extended until the 1st of mange he did also admit that the imposing of that passes jim didnt have its steve thing issues at the very beginning. So the main issue that we sold out was the time that was needed for sorties to visit to check each and every part of it which is why as part of that new match starting from the next wednesday the 22nd of april everything will now be done and of automatically so here in moscow theres a cost to detroit cut that he used to travel on the metro from next wednesday you have to link your travel permit to that card so essentially if you dont do that and put your car down and try to get what the bar has just went open and be allowed to travel through we also saw a build up of cars especially in the size 24 hours of process dont was introduced we had stories of people waiting for up to several hours as authorities very diligently checked through all that documents that also is going to be made much more efficient because now cameras will be checking and scanning which cars have the right how its and which dont now us against the plan and thats the most magic you recognize of course this is not a plan for one. Nation is causing quite natural and psychological distress to a lot of people but that it is necessary and that it is bringing results so on but he said that while the numbers are rising in russia that are actually not growing exponentially d and he actually to pad moscow to new york because their cities are roughly the same population and he said thats so thought here in russia managed to avoid the development of that american its. Norio. You tell you then i left still to come the un is warning that Economic Hardship correspond nationwide shutdowns could actually cost more lives than the coronavirus itself but have a look at why and the details on that just after the break. The world is driven by shaped by one person. Of the day or thinks. We dare to ask. Im not for decapitating anybody but i am for day capitalizing all the wall street bankers by shifting the center of gravity of money from the dollar and fear to bitcoin and thats perfectly within our purview into our scope as the global citizens who wish Justice Justice truth free competition and hard money thats the only justice stud matters thats just staying up all thats real that doesnt rely on politicians. The head of the Uns World Food Programme has warned that the economic shock of the code with 1000 pandemic could in some countries be far deadlier than the virus itself he says at least 30000000 people are at risk of dying of starvation if critical funding is cut one quarter as more the story. As the worlds battle with the coronavirus rages on one has to wonder what will happen when the smoke clears tens of millions of people are already dependent on the Uns World Food Program for meals if that were to lose funding all of those people would be threatened with starvation if we lost all funding a minimum of 30000000. 00 would die over a 3 month period that would be 300000 people dying per day thats why leaders have got to balance out the response with keeping the economy going because otherwise a lot more people will die from starvation and economic deterioration than from kofi itself even before the pandemic the world had a serious food crisis on its hands the World Economic forum says that over 820000000 people were going to bed hungry now Many Organizations are indicating that the situation can get much much worse we could be with you over the 1st. Of the measures that they can place the Police Report but we also believe that will gum pulled the food chain hoops to be kept alive to be able to hold up by level for consumers to move the potential risk over on the north point of course its a crisis of the International Markets under the lockdown the very supply chains of transnational corporations are breaking apart food cant be processed delivered or received between countries within countries everywhere for the developing world that means famine could be just around the corner especially now that humanitarian relief is also being obstructed by the lockdowns widespread poverty a reliance on imported food and rising prices are all a recipe for disaster according to the United Nations for the millions living in lockdown countries that fit that criteria is running out across africa clashes between hungry people in the police are already taking place. Was. I. Many governments of the developing world are struggling with a terrible dilemma see their people die from the coronavirus or see them die from starvation while in the developed world of the main dilemma is containing the corona virus through look downs and then dealing with the Economic Impact in the developing world apart from containing the virus and dealing with the economic crisis the biggest worry now is people dying of hunger that doesnt mean the journey from farm to plate isnt obstructed in the developed world in the United States dairy farms are dumping thousands of gallons of milk a day because they cant be sold at the same time retailers are fearing a shortage of milk and theyre limiting the amount that consumers can buy as for fruits and vegetables 5000000000. 00 worth had been wasted for the same reason one of americas largest pork processing plants has even been closed because of the virus the closure of this facility combined with a growing list of all the protein plants that have shifted across our industry is pushing our country perilously close to the edge in terms of all meat supply it is impossible to keep all Grocery Stores stalked if not running the chaos of the free market is rearing its ugly head in more ways than just one week by week millions more are flocking to unemployment lines and food banks the early indicators of a global food crisis are there before our very eyes we should ask ourselves how much farther can the global Food Supply Chain bend before it breaks but we spoke to a senior economist at the uns food and Agricultural Organization he told us that the crisis needs a concerted international response. Then people to stay home and work as a stay home does obviously create disruptions to the value chain for food no food gets harvested then it has to be processed and it has to be put on the shelves obviously there may be disruptions in this in this line because of the lockdown and because of the fact that people look to Seasonal Workers cannot probably move around from one place to another so that is want to the problem and the other sort of problem is that not of people especially poor people if they dont go to work they dont have the thing you dont have the money they cannot buy the proof we are talking about also countries where man nutrition already is huge government would need to have you know finances of safety net to be able to reach these people and to make sure that they have a minimum of who is really needed the problem is these countries cannot afford it so they need help they need support and the help has to come from the richer countries if the richer countries today are very much engaged of course for their own people the message from the f. A. Always do not forget the poor wants you cause if the problem is not resolved locally you will come back and haunt everybody again. That britains culture secretary is painting for paper to quote by a pipe as the newspaper industry fights whats being called the biggest existential crisis in its history but with mainstream outlets pound her apparently politicizing even the covered 19 crisis i think you could ask whether that could be another reason why people arent buying. When it comes to the british media and their coverage of the coronavirus pandemic lately theres been a heavy focus on russias actions thats not in a good way to keep outlets have been criticizing everything from moscows domestic response to its action on the International Arena coronavirus in russia anger is spreading no wonder libya putin is still isolating put in 6 political point scoring 19 world crisis coronavirus what does from russia with love really mean so yes theyve managed to put a negative spin even on russia sending aid to other struggling countries also theres been a discrepancy in how the u. K. Media have been reporting very similar stories depending on whether or not the originate in russia take sky news for instance the outlook has been painting a grim picture covering how the kremlin has said to monitor Citizens Movement to prevent the spread of the coronavirus at the same time the story about the u. K. Government working on a cracking out got a positive vibe also when it comes to the british response criticism of the Boris Johnson government has been going hand in hand with encouraging headlines like praising the n. H. S. And reporting on how the royal family is beating the disease some outlets have even been defending the initial herd immunity strategy which was later scrapped for quarantine measures after the situation got out of control russia and again even the aid it sends a broad doesnt get the luxury of recognition among the u. K. Media thats amid a severe crisis in britains newspaper industry the pandemic has sent their ad sales into a nosedive and there are fears that some simply will not be able to survive the media has become very tame recently in the last few years now. Not only. Tends to journalists the quality of journalism has dropped and a lot of journalists simply take these press releases from whatever Government Ministry and just regurgitate out even understanding that the time russia east presented is the big demon as it was transferred in. The point is that because of britains failure failure to deal properly with the crisis is why we have already 15000. 00 deaths compared to russias 300. 00 is an element of her jealousy envy plus i have to say diversionary tactics to take away attention from whats going on in britain because they started much too late weve got enough equipment people who need treatment for other diseases are dying etc etc use of possible statistical manipulation so because of our failings were simply exporting the problem to the usual target i mean in short i always written would simply look at what the russians doing and so ok well done chaps. Some of the world news now and a crew from the International Space station has returned to earth to find a very different situation to when they left a team of u. S. And russian members landed safely earlier in kazakstan after spending more than 200 days in orbit as a precaution against overnight anyway they were greeted by a team that had spent a month under medical observation however amid the global lockdown the space travelers could find it a bit tricky to get home one cosmonaut does need to get to moscow to astronauts to need to get back to a stand in texas presence of one of the crew of madrid neighborhood have found a new way of communicating at the same time each evening they step out onto their balconies and wait more city friends did come up with the idea because they lived on the saying street but were unable to leave their homes the idea that its wealthy caught on spain has lost 20000 lives the coronavirus making it the worst country in europe and the hospital and you can.
