while an elderly chinese tourist in france became the 1st to die in europe u.s. citizens on board a quarantine cruise ship docked in japan are being evacuated that's off to 70 more confirmed cases of corona virus were reported on the diamond princess bringing the total number of infections to 355 let's go live now to john hendren who's in washington d.c. john saw americans on this cruise ship up caring for a very no frills trip back to the u.s. that's right kim for $3700.00 passengers aboard the diamond princess it has been a cruise to nowhere for 10 days that's how long they've been quarantined off the port of yokohama and they were expecting that quarantine to end on february 19th that's what they were originally told but for $400.00 americans on that ship that quarantine will not end they will now be transferred back to the united states where they'll be held at u.s. military bases for another 2 weeks and

a lot of those passengers have voiced their concerns they are not happy about that but dr anthony found she of the u.s. national institutes of health says there is good reason for that the degree of transmissibility on that cruise ship is essentially akin to being in a hot spot a lot of transmissibility on that cruise ship so the 44 americans who have tested positive along with anyone else who's tested positive on that ship will stay behind and get medical treatment in japan the rest of them will fly home and it is indeed a no fails no frills flight they've been told that it will be cold it's a converted cargo plane so they're supposed to dress warm and bring their own food if they can find it on that cargo ship they'll be transferred back home and they'll be held at bases in california and in texas for 2 weeks and they're told that they have any bags that way more than 70 pounds they're supposed to leave the rest behind i think that that stonehenge in there live from washington d.c.

. well the virus has been detected in more than 2 dozen countries but one of asia's most populous nations is yet to report a single case indonesians who were evacuated from the chinese a piece into han have been released from current pain with a clean bill of health jessica washington reports from bali. it's quieter than usual on bali's beaches tens of thousands of chinese tourists who would have spent their winter holidays on the island have had to postpone their plans because of the corona virus outbreak who visit is from china who landed here before the outbreak escalated there were 2 choices return home or extend this stay at least 300 out of the 5000 who are here have applied for visa extensions but and her husband are ready to go home the couple say they're confident chinese authorities and governments around the world handling the situation you know will

we need to go back to our jobs and our children need to go to school so in our holiday ads we will immediately return home every year around a 1000000 chinese tourists visit bali and they would direct flights from the outbreak began until they were stopped a few weeks ago as many ask how indonesia has seemingly avoided this outbreak for now this concern the virus is present here but undetected somewhere in this vast archipelago a recent study by harvard researchers looked at data around the outbreak and its link with a travel volume it calculated the risk of an outbreak in countries with direct flights to when the outbreak began and found the disease could already be in indonesia some say indonesia is vulnerable. there are many ports of entry into the country so many airports and ways for people to get in and some areas don't have the right equipment to take to the virus. but authorities

here are defending the measures taken by indonesia. we've been mapping the spread of what would happen if there was a right we have 100 hospitals ready now and getting ready the facilities and personnel are prepared. the world health organization also says the country is taking the right steps to detect the virus and prepare for cases. have. and. it's been confirmed one chinese national who traveled to bali has contract to the virus but it's not clear whether that happened in bali or elsewhere authorities are looking into the case and on this island many are anxiously waiting to know jessica washington al-jazeera. the head of the world health organization says conspiracy theories and lies about the op break or hurting the world's response it's

impossible to predict which direction this. will take we are concerned about the levels of rumor and misinformation that hampering the response will concern that by the continued increase in the number of cases in china we are concerned by reports from china yesterday about the number of those workers who have been infected all right let's take a look at some of the rumors and hoaxes that have done the rounds the web site published claims that china's government plan to euthanize more than 20000 patients to curb the viruses spread the false offical was shared hundreds of times on facebook twitter and reddit. been cracking down on videos that say among other things that the virus is an engineer bio weapon some have already been viewed millions of times and misinformation has also been floating around about false cures and doctors warn could be harmful if attempt it. would you want us now from

new york is a mad do ye an academic specializing in medical anthropology and cultural perceptions around disease and health thank you so much for your time just tell us why do you think that this misinformation these sort of fake ossicles has seemed to really fire up during this patil particular crisis. thanks for having me. so i think these sorts of articles really picked up steam because there. is like a racialized element to the coronavirus panic. americans tend to have like a bit of historical amnesia when it comes to emerging infectious diseases and the public reactions around them but every time. a new infectious disease emerges there is there are certain populations which are targeted as objects the public

moralizing as vectors of carrying this disease and like contaminating the public in the body body politic. a very recent. example a parallel would be bola coronavirus and ebola are very similar in that they are both 0 and not it diseases in that they are transferred from animals to humans and they both 3 animated like these all the lingering stereotypes of non white people as. you know uncivilized barbaric vectors of disease and. that would infect places like the us other people out there do you think who peppers fully putting this information out or is it just a matter of the information sort of becoming you know like chinese whispers the further it goes down the line the more incorrect it becomes.

i do think there are people that are deliberately putting out this basis information in the beginning of this panic there was a video circulating online of a chinese woman eating i think it was bat soup and so this. really. took off and it was shared you know like thousands of times on social media and it created this idea that chinese people. you know that they like bats and that's how they can tell that's how they got the coronavirus but in reality that video was actually filmed for a travel show and the girl was in polish. i do think these sorts of racialized panics hender the chinese government's response and the world health

organization's response. because it makes it really difficult for people to separate like facts from misinformation. if you know the world health organization has recently released data over like 17000 people who are infected and they found that you know. 82 percent of those infected with corona virus had like a very mild case. it also has less than a 2 percent rate which is lower than sars which had a 9 percent fatality rate lower than in 2001 which i think had a 17 percent fatality rate and lower than the bird flu which had like a 39 percent fatality rate. so these sorts of videos

they. contribute to this overall racialized panic. which i think is premature given that. if. over 90 percent of the cases of corona virus are contained within china and there are only maybe i think 15 can thing contain confirmed cases in the us and they're all quarantined we'll have to leave it there thank you so much for your analysis from new york there that is amanda ye an academic specializing in medical anthropology thank you . and u.n. envoy to libya says the weapons in boggo there has become a joke foreign ministers discussed the issue at a security summit in munich he agreed not to interfere in libya but many of them have been deeply involved in the conflict and diplomatic editor james bays has more . this was diplomacy is groundhog day foreign ministers and other representatives from 13 countries repeating the same thing

their leaders said exactly 4 weeks ago that this summit in. but despite their words arms have continued to flow to both sides in libya and showing what some might call great hypocrisy the countries who are breaching the embargo are actually all among those here mr foreign minister you talk about a deplorable breach of the arms embargo we know who is breaching the arms embargo they were in the room with you what did you say to them that when i was those who continue to breach the embargo need to know that they will be detected and they will be named we will discuss that with the e.u. council on foreign affairs tomorrow and we will discuss the contribution the e.u. can make the arms embargo has become a joke and so it you know we all need to step up here and. it is complicated because there are violations that are you know happening on land sea

and air and that all needs to be monitored and there needs to be accountability ultimately attention will now move to geneva the other problem apart from the breaches of the arms embargo is the lack of a ceasefire talks at the un's european headquarters between representatives of general haftar and those of the internationally recognized government resume on tuesday the un have ambitious plans to keep the diplomatic momentum moving they put in a diary a date of the 26th of february for talks with all the libyan political parties and then the plan is for elections brokered by the un that if there is a ceasefire and that remains a very big if james pays out 0 munich syria's war has also been high on the agenda at the munich security conference okies foreign minister told his russian counterpart that regime forces must halt the offensive in in the province the syrian government with russia's health is advancing on the last for the whole

province and has killed a number of turkish soldiers during the offensive turkey has said that it would take necessary step. if diplomatic efforts with russia failed it will save us from this delegation with the russian delegation tomorrow in moscow prior to the summit with sergey lavrov said the aggression and it looked should stop and a permanent cease fire should be established delegations will evaluate these issues tomorrow in moscow at least 3 civilians have been killed and 7 others and by car bomb in the syrian border town of beyond turkish backed rebels forced kurdish fighters out of the town last october and since then there's been a spate of cobb last set of kill dolls. when the news ahead saudi arabia heads back up to one of its jets shot down again and we'll hear from a reporter and some. u.s. secretary of state is in senegal to try and counter chinese influence in africa and so on. and in sports far world tell us about the ugandan running himself into the

record some. gunshots have been heard as tear gas filled the streets of central baghdad as thousands of protesters fall with biggs there used small bombs to disperse the crowds 7 on sunday protests is save it tends to set on fire by security forces overnight iraq's human rights commission says nearly 550 iraqis have been killed since anti-government demonstrations began in october well earlier 3 missiles landed near the u.s. embassy in baghdad as a 4th missile exploded close to the office of the popular mobilization forces that's a paramilitary group backed by iran no casualties have been reported. sudan's 2 ousted president omar bashir has appeared in court to be interrogated for alleged war crimes in the darfur region the hearing was separate from the charges bashir

faces at the international criminal court in the hague. the i.c.c. has been pursuing him for more than a decade in 2009 he was charged with 2 counts of war crimes and 5 of crimes against humanity a year later the i.c.c. added 3 additional charges of genocide they all have to do with bush's role in the darfur conflicts years of fighting between pro-government forces and rebels left thousands did displaced 2 and a half 1000000 folks are gay nor is an international criminal lawyer and counsels victims at the international criminal court he says there are many doubts about the legal process in sudan. it's not clear exactly what's going to happen from here on in so is the prosecutor of the i.c.c. fighting about sudha has already raised the possibility of a trial before sudanese courts in sudan that's what she raised as a possibility with the un security council in december the principal obligation to

carry out an investigation and prosecution does rest with sudan but there will be a very big question mark as to whether sudan is not just able but also willing to carry out a full and proper investigation of prosecuting prosecution into the full range of crimes and issue it concerns of fast company of ethnic cleansing and genocide in darfur so it remains to be seen whether sudan is is willing to do that within its own courts and could a trial take place safely in khartoum that's a big question and if justice in this case is really to be delivered close to where the victims live well then arguably it should not take place in khartoum which should be in darfur and does the security situation in darfur in visit the holding of the trial there probably not so these are these are some of the issues so the the security is often one of the main reasons why these trials are not actually

held in the country where the hostilities are taking place and in another they call development for about al bashir he's facing new charges of corruption money don't during and financing terrorism the allegations date back to his time in power the show was sentenced to 2 years in prison for corruption in december. saudi m.r.c. coalition air strikes have killed at least 31 civilians in northern yemen the u.n. humanitarian chief for yemen calls the attacks shocking and happened after the rebels claimed responsibility for shooting down a saudi war plane. reports from the capital some. this is the moment yemen's houthi say they shot down a saudi air force fighter jet the group aired this video on saturday the saudi u.a.e. lit quality and confirmed to one of its planes it went down you know joe for governorates in the country's north east. the what these also broadcast what it says is the

aftermath saw that it was strikes in the area full of which the who these claim were retaliatory that the saudi quality released the statement saying there was a possibility of what it calls collateral damage to civilians this show you that the us and our forces has been able after they have shut down. several of the. american drones over the skies of yemen in the last 15 months now it seems to me that they are able to slow down despite that get on they can say that if they start at this stage this means that we are going to end that a new stage of the war the who these claimed the plane was downed with then. some another say that if that's true it would be a very significant development in yemen's long running war this is a big deal knowing that already their partners the iraqis you know how for all

practical purposes withdrawn left and now the saudis are there and incapable of finishing the war and settling cable of winning the war and now perhaps with this game changer beginning to lose the war. more than 900-1000 people are being killed and another 3000000 displaced by the fighting millions more have been brutes to the brain to famine struck room agreement of 20000 raised troops for peaceful settlement suppose there is been news sign of that. if it's confirmed now these have new weapon in there that could change the direction. whatever happens it's billions who's in the middle who continue to pay the price. so nah. u.s. secretary of state might pump a rose says his country will work with its allies in africa to decide on troop

numbers to battle armed groups made the remarks in senegal where he started his 1st trip official trip to the continent senegal's government says washington's informed it of plans to reduce u.s. forces but believes it will remain a crucial ally in the fight against violence that's plagues the sahara region senegal's leaders and i also talked about islamist terrorism which endangers 350000000 people right here in west africa. it threatens americans too. we are counting on said to go it is an important ally in this fight and i assured our friends that the u.s. will keep up this fight as well. in addition we discussed how united states can continue training and supporting senegalese peacekeepers in the region there is success up in transition the gambia to a democracy is a historic legacy because hawkers in dakar he's been speaking to experts concerned about u.s. troop withdrawal from the region. this press conference was really no surprise for

any people who are observing the united states and their involvement in africa many people wondering what is it all about because 2 years ago the national security advisor at the time john bolton announced a pullout of american troops in the region but at the same time within the last 2 years attacks from groups like the islamic state in the greater sahara and before her has doubled just yesterday in mali 22 people were killed in the village of go by the border in mali so really an uptick of violence so a lot of people here wondering why is the united states pulling out in this region in joining us is how a from the open society of democracies in west africa to perhaps answer this question how will be effect how will this affect the west africa region the pullout of west of american troops from this region renos a key role as a us it's the united states plays into the jones but also interest in surveyance

and tending. so it would be a peachy to have the u.s. pullout from a city gen we see heightening off attacks more countries being on the brink off collapsing you know. miley oh he's already a serious case he sent a few months of looking up i saw him still. attacking civilians and being a grant didn't say it so us one expecting to play you know even to be go to an insult board stability and peace into each. mexican activists say the publication of graphic images have again highlighted what they're calling a violence epidemic it's estimated that 10 women and girls m a there every day and reports. hundreds of women continue to demonstrate on the streets of mexico city. i. their anger

mexico in 2900. women's rights advocates are demanding that all murders of women be automatically investigated as femicide when the to investigate something mean c.d.o. when a murder is investigated as a femicide it automatically sets off a series of protocols recognized internationally through this documentation a statistic is generated making it possible to recognize the scope of the problem so public policy can be developed. but outside the apartment building where. it was killed neighbors joined demonstrators in a vigil for all victims of gender based violence while it was the death of anybody that has come to you that support these latest demonstrations protests against gender based violence are becoming louder and more frequent in mexico more than 20 different organizations have signed an open letter against gender violence in mexico. with emotions still running high more demonstrations are expected when.

density aires there's a risk of a potential community outbreak as a result there where we are we've got schools we've got markets i was a large number of high rise buildings that's quite a low put up for district and so a lot of these buildings are are filled with elderly people and the concern with the neighborhood here in the people here despite is this and as a result they believe the risk of an outbreak in the crowd of virus infection is high and also we've had a number of our flags pro-democracy flags and hong kong independence flags being raised at this particular rally at the softening it appears the pro-democracy groups movement and the anti-government movement seem to be moving also they are joining hands with these communities to try and push back the government on the decision to set up these coronavirus treatment clinics across the city. and the publication of a recent speech by china's president is raising questions about why the public wasn't alerted to about the outbreak sooner adrian brown explains why. china's president xi jinping knew about the our break of the corona virus in early january

that was 2 weeks before the government confirmed the 1st person to person transmission of the virus and more than a week before dr lee one was silenced by the government for alerting colleagues the president delivered a speech to the politburo standing committee china's most powerful political body that was on february the 3rd but details were only released by state media this weekend those details amount to an official timeline of what the president knew and when on january the 20th she says he issued special instructions to try to contain the outbreak 3 days later the city of woo han was locked down a measure praised by the world health organization some. analysts say china's leader appears to be covering his back after mounting criticism that he didn't respond fast enough on one hand. chinese leaders who would like to demonstrate that

it had not the late in free acting in taking action to contain the epidemic that it had not tried to conceal the facts from the puppy but then are obviously the cover up conspiracy is very much in the minds of chinese people president xi also accused regional communist party leaders of not carrying out orders from the government in beijing and vowed to punish incompetent administrator this is the greatest crisis to come from president xi jinping since he came to power more than 8 years ago because it indicates the top leadership were aware of the potential for verity of a virus weeks before the public were told of a very injured at beijing's new international airport the economic impact from the virus is clear with few airlines flying to china one of the world's busiest travel hubs is at a virtual standstill desolate scenes too across the border in hong kong on

the ruling they say that the indian constitution guarantees affirmative action for the most socially disadvantaged groups now these reservations are quotas as they're known here are given to caste based groups made to a group called the balance and also to tribes people to rectify historical wrongs perpetrated by the hindu religions caste hierarchy. by the one where the forces of. so we are here with this simple slogan 1st save constitution series of vision of citizenship save constitution we are proud to see here for dignity of a self-respect we needed to believe as i believe. this protest has been created by a very popular man by the name of chandra shaker who is a leader of the community he's asked people to march from here to the indian parliament but there is a large police presence all over there to stop people from reaching parliament has

also asked politicians belonging to caste and tribes to ask the indian government to nullify the supreme court's verdict. major photo of the have been declared in parts of england and wales off to storm dennis. south wales bore the brunt of this a month's worth of rain fell in just 48 hours overflowing streams and rivers have cut off several communities forecasters say the bad weather is likely to continue well into monday. democratic party white house hopefuls have traveled to los vegas in the hope of finding political fortune thanks loued former frontrunner and vice president joe biden who's fallen behind in the race contend is that campaigning in nevada before next weekend's nominating contest vying to take on donald trump later this year early voting for the caucuses began on saturday when a president who is owned by the n.r.a. where the president's own brother government fractures and i promise you president

not president to live a breath and me i'm going to do everything i can to go after those programs. in order to win in november we're going to have to have strong support from the african-american community the latino community the asian community and the native american community we cannot take these communities for granted anymore well the nevada caucuses are also the 1st test of candidates appeal in a state with a more diverse population she has more from washington d.c. . it's about a 30 percent latino population here 9 percent african-american or an 8 percent asian american that might help explain some of the figures we're looking out in the 1st poll we've had for ages from from nevada but the soul is in the lead 25 percent he has a really strong latino base in nevada and now actually by the way that that leave

that he has right now does that is reflected in the national polls we're going to last national poll we had on thursday had a double digit lead over joe biden he was at 29 percent joe biden at 19 percent but he sounds like very good at the moment joe biden 18 percent in nevada he has to do well now after his disastrous performance in new hampshire and iowa where he's going to continue to say that he's the electable one he has to start winning or at least vaguely doing well in elections he's hoping that the african-american base that he's always hoped for will come out with as evidence in the polls that even that is declining now as what we were told in the pose of the main reason why the african-american community is. coalescing around it is you know maybe they do prefer other policies from someone else but they feel that he can beat trump but if that is the priority and if you call and win elections it's not good for elizabeth warren 3rd 13 percent told him start now this is the really interesting one as well make or break for him perhaps as well so we haven't heard off much before but tom

is another 1000000000 a businessman and his pitch is i can beat trump because i can be the sort of centrist trying to win and i can beat him on his own on his own ground and so on he's put huge amounts of money in nevada if he doesn't do well here he's probably going to be out of it and then peter amy clover 10 percent each this is their opportunity these are on the on the right of the democratic party is their opportunity to perhaps or that they have any support whatsoever amongst ethnic minorities because certainly if they don't then it doesn't look good for them moving forward setting the evidence right now is that they have minimal support amongst the democrats diverse base. hated matthews is a professor of political science at cypress college he says it's do or die for by. joe biden that was his major base of support the are feeling very he has to hold on to them and yet their main quest was they want someone who can be trump and yet joe biden has not won a primary yet or a caucus and thus putting

a dent in his african support because you know they are having doubts about him being able to win that's a real problem it's a do or a contest right now not the counting of the as it should be just fine in the vatican as it was 4 years ago because of the process and procedure and i believe it will be this kind of problem like in iowa and so very exciting to see what will happen with these contenders that the numbers are shifting so quickly and bernie has a pretty solid lead over here and we'll see if you can hang on to it though that's the real thing he's done no major outreach toward the latino voters in the african-american voters much more than 2016 and that has paid off actually in latino voters want the issues that he's for universal's you know single payer medicare for all that appeals to the because many of them are not insured or fully insured the same thing with education tuitions for education is very good for all working class people and many of them are in the working class as sort of the african-american people who need to have as are all the other people working class whites they want to have guaranteed medicare for all and also tuition free education sanders is offering that and seems to me that's really attracting a lot of people. foreign minister says efforts to end the almost 3 year blockades
