David thanks for joining us this is r. T. International. Well lets begin with our quick daily check on the latest global coronavirus figures total infections now stand at above 4600000. 00. Or approaching 310000 or the number of those whove recovered tops 1700000. Moscow has started free Antibody Testing for the corona virus for all residents of the russian capital the results are expected to help the government decide whether to ease the existing restrictions or to extend them the number of new cases reported in russia on saturday stands at the moment at 9200 that is the lows for several weeks though experts say that its too early to say that the situation is improving since the number tends to go up and down from day to day will be 63000. 00 people have recovered in total but 2537. 00 have died from or in the Current Situation curve 19 in russia lets go live to r. T. Correspondent it is darn off very good mt agar so its a hopeful side i would think this for many people the idea that you know in terms of medicine things are progressing tell us more about this Antibody Test and how in theory it is going to help the situation. Well as to neil so what moscow is doing right now senshi is trying to figure out how many people might have been infected with covert 19 who have shown no symptoms and their full did no tests wealthy has been deceased and how many of them might have made antibodies and might have immunity to this new coronavirus disease so this is essentially the floor behind this and this is the idea behind the smell the grand design and some 2000 muscovites of already seized the opportunity to find out whether or not they at some point in their lives did indeed have this new newsies and of course if they did this might have some repercussions of those who came into our culture unknowingly and so those people will be tested and this will allow the russian capital to sensually find out as many people as possible who have wants to be areas of this new rosa parks well when it comes to the situation in russia as a whole while the country is right that when it comes to the number of cases right now has shown a very very low mortality rate as you said if you look at the sec is it now look at the hundreds of thousands of a fall and said by the official statistics alone to this you disease and if you add them to how many people have died the number is relatively low it is no than the countries and some some pundits they have been speculating that well russia. Is essentially messing up the books that it is getting it wrong information when it comes to mystery Media Outlets for instance the honest as claimed well what russia has 70 some 70 is and more deaths than it is say the New York Times for instance is claiming that most of the low back some say. 100 old coronavirus i can be republican but bloomberg has long been both of them bloomberg has essentially released an article titled the experts dont want to know why why he wrote a virus hasnt killed more russians well list this what he has been so sick well as incident well with the russians at all because many people here have seen this almost 8 in much more deaths so much so a bit even how soon the initial headline but russias ambassador to london has reacted to this list judging by your reports russias response has been to manipulate with figures at home and to spread this information abroad with the government acted in efficiently and doctors have an adequate protection this distorted picture requires a refutation even by most pessimistic accounts rushes before months in terms of Health Care System capacity and death rate is among the best of all major countries your article carries inaccurate statements coupled with an unacceptable and unprofessional one sided narrative. Now these lists they have been backed by both the. Russian wife as the National Experts well Health Organization has given praise to bush since she sent that by reacting to this new pandemic by closing the borders and china until then with Europe Russia has given itself until 1000 managed can see into the country for. The Health Care System to essentially get a kick to the Health System now while it is very much straight but is able to. Die in need for instance those who have washington only mild symptoms of the. Interest in the home so they and what occupying most you know best and medics the cancer was all that he efforts on well being those one critical conditions well those who for whom the situation is between life and death but still this is the speculation has been run and now all my ambassador. Russias ambassador to the u. K. He also commented as to why he believes what could be behind such speculation in the Mainstream Media have a listen to the choice between the economy and human lives will leave its mark im people thinking worldwide for a long time the values of any society could not be question more acutely and it is no coincidence that this problem has caused such a rise in undisguised irritation in the western press and the publics opinion assessment of socalled western values will have a practical assessment in terms of how many lives have been saved and the west and elites will have to answer on this soon enough and foresee the pandemic has shown another dimension of the crisis in western societies for which moscow does not bear any responsibility. So essentially. The mainstream narrative has been portraying russia almost as a 3rd world country. Right now even the british and the fact that russia is doing better than almost all of them and back in this new coronavirus deceased now we also heard from the head doctor of what is as benchmark russian hospital and. A should go he has he has been treating people with the corona virus he contract the virus and so while doing his job and he successfully recovered and he has returned to teaching. Yes reacted to this whole story as well and even his medical opinion on this. Especially with the early italian example has shown us the seriousness of the situation what percentage of cases in russia as here in the capital half of them so all that was happening in italy allowed our system which took half of the patients to get ready our hospitals dont decide who needs a ventilator who can wait because we have enough of them here there isnt such a problem in moscow because we did manage to prepare but its always easier to ignore this part and start claiming your statistics are fake. So the past few days has been surely moralists day for a number of new patients those who are. Deceased some have been very very cautiously looking about a very slight decline. On saturday so right now more people now Antibody Tests at least here in the russian capital this is the needs russian government. Sigur out what they will be opening its economy and the lot on people in streets. You have a comprehensive report i appreciate it it is done off is our man in moscow just updating us on the situation in the capital and indeed around the country the latest medical developments that thank you. The United StatesHealth Care System has been inundated steering the pandemic of course not just with patients but also criticism of the weather it is a struggle it seems with the pandemic now the former head of a key lab working on a vaccine has warned congress if the government doesnt make rapid changes things will only get worse. Our window of opportunity is closing if we fail to improve our response now based on science i fear the pandemic will get worse and be prolonged there will be likely a resurgence of covert 19 this far and we greatly compound that by the challenges of seasonal influenza without better planning 2020 could be the darkest winter in modern history meanwhile donald trump says that the countrys done a great job in the battle with the coronavirus and claims its only the media that says otherwise we talked to the pediatrician and Us Universal Health Care activist Margaret Flowers she says the pandemics put the spotlight on the many failings of the current system. 3 major drawbacks that it has exposed is that we dont have a universal Health Care System in the United States and that millions of people have no Health Insurance at all it also has exposed that we dont have a centralized Health Care System its our system is very piecemeal and bureaucratic and disorganized and because of that theres been no real leadership coming from a centralized institution telling people how to behave telling Health Professionals what to do making sure that we can get resources to people who need them particularly our Health Care Providers and the 3rd thing is that our Health Care System is really based on profit and not based on the health of people and so instead of doing commonsense things that would have enabled us to get tests out to people to get supplies to people were seeing this whole. Scurrying of various corporations trying to see how they can profit from this situation. U. S. Nursing homes have been hit particularly hard by the crisis we talked to done been named who lost relatives including his father who was in a nursing home in new york. Week. 5 deaths for them my uncle 3 cousins 4 of them. 3 of them god it is Nursing Homes so. Im sure the fact that they didnt have enough people. Got people infected but the bulk of them were the patients being forced to live with the virus and they had no idea whether they had it or its something that should have been known. Prepared for by like especially the states its all regulated by the state and local govt the talk about having a pandemic plan early march the elected officials. How could you not have a plan for our most vulnerable those that we have to honor those who are parents. The situation with Nursing Homes is come to sharp focus now after it that many have not been reporting the number of deaths there is kind of more than 30000 fatalities from americas entire virus death toll happened in homes in long stay care facilities relatives have complained of a lack of testing and in a number of cases of no one informing them their loved ones had coded 19 before they died we talked to American Healthcare representatives about how they see the situation. The government could have a 1000000 rated the extent to which so reduce the extent to which residents were affected i think its you know unfortunately the federal government kind of ignored some of the signs of what was going on and was very very slow to react and just generally and even more so in respect to nursing or what were hearing from families sometimes is that families dont even know that their loved one had covert once he until the resident has died so the person there were taken to the hospital and its too early were hearing too often of residents and family members finding out that their resident had a roommate and that person was kogan 1000 and they were separated in time and then their loved one also became coburn 1000. Were hearing about people not getting access the hospital because there were some you know because of their age because of its ability fortunately not seen as as being worth treating we have about 1300000 people in nursing home in the United States and i would say about a 3rd of those are over the age of 85 so its a very large very vulnerable population people dont realize that a lot of people die in nursing home but if you just look at new york city if you say theres about 30000 who die i think after they do a good job of counting the people i did nursing home it will be 60 also nationwide theres about 80000 who die that number will double and i think it will be about 200000 people in the United States right now only 30 states are reporting deaths but thats still 20 states that are been unwilling to count the people who are dying in nursing all. And add those numbers to their lists and i think some of that is political right the Nursing Homes are scared because when the word gets out about how frequent this is there are scared about what that does to their image the governors are scared because it makes them look bad but finally everybody is coming around to realize that we have to know the right numbers so that we can deal with this correctly. Now with the us press calling for no one to trust the House Intelligence Committee chairman adam schiff ever again so in a sense to the right to find out what that has to do with russia. The world is driven by a dream shaped by. Saying. We dare to ask. Thats right here its a i r is the Ticker Symbol for hair its a closed and finally and you can buy all of the hair. That we feature here on this episode of kaiser report its currently trading at a market cap of about 3900000000. 00 but were expecting the fed to come in in front run the market and take this up to a much higher capitalization possibly 7 or 9 trillion dollars. Back republicans controlling the Michigan Legislature claimed the states governor gretchen trump butter authority would stay home orders and other restrictions hundreds of protesters defied the governors policies outside the state capital calling her a witch and the virus itself. Media. Was. The protests the capital lansing of being held for 6 weeks already on friday the local Prosecutors Office said a man was charged with making credible Death Threats against governor whitman and chickens not the only state where people are challenging look down policies in minnesota protesters rejecting the governors measures claiming. The cool seeing the state to suffer even more harm with heightened suicide rates due to the Economic Impact of the shutdown we have spoken to locals in both states. I think americans need to realize their freedoms are being taken away if they dont stay in the region right now there wont be any freedom to speed up. How many businesses in this country even can afford to stay shut down for 3 months and not many i know of. Theres no strategy right now the whole thing is just a stalling game the only strategy so far is stay home. Thats not a strategy for. Give us radians i have no worries said on the 1st week were at any last week right indeed so me just off i dont im not going to join if i dont know why now anyways and so i better let me receptions the floor and i do it in any way and yet hes still there and open up the churches which are their 1st amendment rights. The governor was picking winners and losers because he opened a candy store allowed 250 children and theyre very wrong that let the very scouts put out my eggs and the cemetery of our veterans are passed away. Earlier in an unprecedented move facebook removed 380002 look down community of michigan says they acted in violation of the state orders to stay at home but in the state of wisconsin it supremes outlawed the dog so some clear how the social network will react given the differences between states. Facebook stated that events opposing the u. S. Governments social distancing policies will be banned from facebook we asked a libertarian us president ial candidate our then war political commentator Chadwick Moore if facebook has the right to choose whats right or wrong in terms of the pandemic. As a private Company Facebook can do whatever to ones even if its a morally wrong idea and the situation like that the fact that facebook is shutting down political debate is taking it one step too far told time and time again that the arab spring was organized on base so the base book allows massive revolts in foreign muslim countries but not in america where theyre based where they get massive tax credits where they were handed in with the government where they get a free pass on everything these companies are its not its so simple as a private company like you want to kick someone out of your bar i mean they get way more complicated than this and so theyll look at a group like the ones that are being shut down and say these people are dangerous theyre going to upset the stability of whats happening when really is often just people who love this country love this constitution and really dont trust the government and the government doesnt give as many reasons to to trust that you have the right to choose to work rather than to choose to follow an idiotic government directive the solution is for people to voluntarily say look the government has failed to handle this at every level they have created a medical shortage where we never needed to have one they dont know what theyre doing theyve lied to us theyve changed their story many many times so we need to do this on their own and many people will voluntarily as has happened in the states that have reopened will voluntarily stay at home we slowly reopen if we protect the people who are most vulnerable yeah of course you have some work cases youre not i dont think youre going im going to help expert but it doesnt seem like youre going to see a massive spike you can always look at countries like sweden that never shutdown so its come to a point where youve got suicide youve got Mental Health issues youve got drug overdoses that are skyrocketing i think were seeing real problems with with what the directives have done to shut down this country weve gotten occur thats what we were promised now its time to run.
