city is worrying me and it's also saddening because milan is a lively city and to see it like this today is almost a defeat for me i never would have thought this would happen milan's my parents or airport has now suspended all flights its neighboring airport now restricted to running only domestic flights but that hasn't stopped people attempting to get away . fearing further contagion leaders of italy southern regions have warned hundreds of thousands of its citizens who went to work or study in the north of the country not to return home but groups of people continue to arrive from milan arriving with their masks on but there was no one to test them for covert 19 the harsh restrictions are designed to slow down the spread of the disease but there are fears that it may be too little too late hospitals in the affected region have been inundated and sick residents are now being asked to stay at home stretched health care system is struggling to keep up with the increasing numbers there are no more

valuable bats in hospitals and actually the current hospital which serves about 500000 people in all the area of course does little thought on doctors got infected so there are nor more intensive care beds available. away from italy there were further increases of the virus all over the continent in france at least 900 people have died from the virus with more than 1100 cases recorded in the country and there are nearly 800 people infected in germany one german national diagnosed with covert 19 has died on holiday in egypt last italy's locked out is the most stringent outside of china containment may have come too late for some areas slowing down the virus has spread may be the best option for now. al-jazeera . lisa palumbo is

many restriction and i think we italians also attest the 4 western countries countries all over the war because in china i don't want to retire a regime and it was easier you know to make people comply to all the restriction and for a democracy i think it's a little bit different it's the 1st they hope the real lockdown so i like a one for a walker and i can see that there is a 'd i think there is still too many people that haven't really understood what they need to do because walking is ok but you cannot really stay close to other people really are just recommended to to stay home and not only in the lockdown herriot but like everywhere need to leave because we need to understand you are not only in a lockdown herriot yet there are just as yet there are so close but and schools by . all a hold an account 3. will of course as there are people. to whom we ask to

the virus continues to spread is the concerns president donald trump says he'll continue to hold political rallies the tester out there there was a misstep early on with regard to the test. a technical difficulty but right now about $1100000.00 tests are out there now will be an additional about $640000.00 on it let's say monday and then at least another $4000000.00 particularly now that we're engaging the private sector now when you say that they're out there if you go to a doctor it's up to the doctor to order the test and if that happens a person should have a test available but it's no doubt chris you have to be realistic early on there were some missteps that delayed it. countries in africa have until now escaped the worst of the corona virus outbreak but new cases of been recorded in cameroon in total at least 45 infections have been confirmed elsewhere on the continent

they don't need to be afraid they guess needs. or prevention aspect while fear of the virus is spreading faster than the virus itself so was misinformation on social media rumors that africans are immune to the virus so that hot weather or local remedies can destroy it with some saying that covert 19 is a western invention it's a challenge for african states with the epidemic gaining ground misinformation has become ass contagious as the virus itself nicholas hawk al-jazeera the car. meanwhile the chinese government has reported the lowest number of new coronavirus infections since january but the good news comes after at least 10 people were killed when a hotel used to quarantine patients collapsed in the southeastern city of kwanza all katrina you has a major developments from beijing. witnesses say it sounded like an explosion this

t 20 world cup run against india in front of the x. now when it. cools the arab. women across latin america's biggest cities have taken to the streets to mark international women's day in chile thousands marched through the capital in the wake of broader demonstrations over social inequality demanding justice for women injured or abused during the protest movement which began last year the c n human reports on the protests in santiago. the metro system has collapsed by the number of because of the rather the number of people that are going out here some are dressed in red as some are topless others are carrying different signs you can see there are hundreds of different women's organizations to basically send the same message that women need to be treated equally not just be equal they need to

have equal salaries then you have the right to abortion and they need and that they must have equal participation in politics and this is particularly important at this stage here in chile because there will be or very likely will be a new constitutional assembly and it has been a struggle to ensure that women would have parity that in other words that there would be equal numbers of representatives to write that new constitution that women as well as men that was approved by congress just a few days ago but unfortunately the president is now on the lips of most of the people that are marching in front of us and not in very complimentary terms because he said the following and i want to quote him exactly he said very often it's not just the desire of men to abuse women but also the position of women to be abused that caused and out rage on the social networks and on the streets he said that's not what he meant that it was taken out of context but clearly

a very sensitive it strikes a very sensitive court here in chile at this point especially since the latest figures show that list 100000 women were abused last year alone and those are only the ones that were reported. in mexico city protests have turned violent with police firing tear gas at women's day marches thousands of officers in riot gear have been deployed to the demonstrations some protesters have damaged property rallies focusing on the country's alarming rate of time is size matters of women have more than doubled over the past 5 years and activists accuse the president of failing to take the issue seriously that speak to al-jazeera as manual rapinoe in mexico city for so many tell us about what's been happening in today's protests and also the specific problems that women in mexico face. will tens of thousands of women are currently out on the streets of mexico city's made alveda right now this house to be the largest women's march in recent memory

and a lot of this is part of a larger movement a new feminist movement that's calling out the government in calling out what they see as a mate a maci stine male dominated society but i do want to bring someone in her name is is on video school they don't she is a resident of mexico and she is demonstrating out on the streets today there could you tell us a little bit about the sports it's unprecedented almost it's estimated that more than 80000 people are here tell us a little bit about what this movement that's growing is all about all i believe this is just a consequence of what we believe day to day i mean it's not about the killings and not all about the killings but about how man see us as woman how we have to struggle how we have to go have more effort to get to the same place it's all about that it's about the violence that you see every day in the street and how people watch you and think you're less and they think that it's ok to treat less so i

believe this is the largest march i've ever been to in mexico and it's not my 1st ever march. well i'm really excited that everybody's fighting right so i don't know it's a very important moment in. mexico i believe that these will set a precedent for women tomorrow and the big day is going to be tomorrow the strike threats about what i was going to ask you about max that is without precedent this nationwide strike thousands of women are expected to to stay home for a single so that's a day without women you told me earlier that you're also going to be participating in that's right can you tell us about the meaning of that and why it's important to you well i think it's. it's very important because we're gonna make a conscience about being absent so what's going to happen if one day your best friend your coley got work doesn't show up who's going to do her job who's going to take care of their children what's going to your husband if you don't show up so i

believe it's very very important for everybody to stay home don't shop don't do anything just make conscious of by being absent. apologies we have lost our connection there to minor and his guests during those protests in mexico to mark international women's day and a national strike planned in mexico on monday by women to raise awareness about the issues they face on a daily basis in mexico now ronny to mark international women's day in kyrgyzstan turned violent after mosques men attacked protesters demonstrators had gathered in the main square of the capital bishkek when men wearing masks barge into the gathering and started tearing banners upon police detained around 60 people including dozens the feeling to this. in pakistan thousands of women defied the threat of violence to take to the streets across the country

the end you're watching the news hour on al-jazeera with me fully back to go a reminder of our top stories it's at me has overtaken south korea as the 2nd worst hit country by coronavirus outside china the number of infections us the past 7300 and it's reported the narges daily jump in deaths of fire has ripped through a refugee center on the greek island of less the 2nd at a facility for migrants on the island in less than a week after unknown assailants torched a reception center in mexico city protests have turned violent with police firing tear gas at international women say protesters some of the marchers have damaged property iranis focusing on the country's alarming rate femicide us. now the next round of democratic primaries in the united states takes place on tuesday the contest looks dramatically different than it did just a week ago

a race that began with nearly 30 candidates is now down to just 2 serious contenders from on senator bernie sanders and former vice president joe biden biden leads sanders by about 90 delegates in the race for the nomination and the right to face off against president donald trump in november as general election now 6 states vote on tuesday the most closely watched will be michigan where $125.00 delegates will be selected at the day's largest total let's speak to his own daughter who is in detroit for his so all eyes on michigan and that's where the candidates are focusing all their efforts on why is this state's now so important in this race. yeah there's a whole host of reasons for that but primarily as you mentioned this is a state with $125.00 delegates up for grabs on tuesday there are 5 other states that are also going to be voting but they don't have nearly as many delegates as

this state michigan has and this is what it's all timidly come down to now a race for those nearly 1100 delegates that are needed to secure the democratic nomination joe biden has several more than bernie sanders at this point but that is why so much attention is being put on michigan also it's come down to essentially the final 2 candidates for the most part and these are the signs of the 2 candidates you're seeing all over the state of michigan joe biden and bernie sanders but it's not only their signs you see there their selves also campaigning here in this state bernie sanders was here. on sunday joe biden is expected here on monday at a rally as well they're putting a lot of emphasis on michigan because if bernie sanders wins michigan it will show that he is back in this race and very much a contender if not the front runner where if joe biden is able to win this state

and win it convincingly his lead will even increase even more and it could lead to coals for bernie sanders to step out of the race of course but we'll have to see but clearly this is the state everyone is going to be watching on tuesday right and bernie sanders is campaigning right now and speaking at a rally in michigan as we saw in those live pictures. african-american voters gave have been very good to joe biden in states like north carolina. this is also an important vote in michigan. it's a critical vote now african-american voter turnout nationwide was down in the 2016 election to the lowest levels in nearly 20 years only about 58 percent of african-american eligible voters went to the polls no where are you seeing that more than here in the state of michigan especially here in detroit a city of about 700000 people 80 percent are african-american or black american

voters we asked a local lawmaker here exactly why the voting total was down and what are the key issues for black americans here in the state of michigan and this is what he told. african-americans that not a monolithic community you have people at different levels that see this as a huge loss but you have some people that said my life hasn't haven't changed under the democratic leadership nor has it changed at the republican leadership i'm still struggling i'm still dealing with the issues of happiness but if you drop i'm still dealing with the fact that i can't have affordable housing i'm still dealing with the issue of not having affordable insurance and so there are people that understand that we got was always in the white house their struggle is not be an address so we have to have a leadership that will address the issues of the black community and not just tell them to block in a blanket way vote democratic. bernie sanders has done

terrible quite frankly with black american voters so far but he got a huge indorsement on sunday from jesse jackson a black civil rights leader who he himself ran for president twice in the 19 $180.00 s. jackson is here in michigan campaigning for bernie sanders and jesse jackson said in his words at a rally on sunday bernie sanders can win needs to win and will win of course that's all up to the voters here in michigan find out on tuesday kate thank you for that gabriel is on the line for us in detroit where let's. some more about this now to lincoln mitchell who teaches political science at columbia university he joins us from new york thank you very much lincoln for being with us on al-jazeera again now 4 years ago bernie sanders scored an upset win over hillary clinton in the michigan democratic primary just how tough do you think it's going to be for him this time round. well it's important not to think that just because something happened 4

years ago it will happen again the race is different biden is a different candidate than clinton it helps biden frankly that he's a man among a lot of white working class voters men who went with sanders last time but he's very strong with african-american voters but so was clinton so this is going to be a tough race for sanders sinner's has built his coalition out in 2020 largely with latino voters particularly specifically mexican american voters and there's not a lot of them in michigan so i expect michigan to be very close to get back in this race centers has to win and he has to win by more than one or 2 points so it's a it's a steep hill for him right now right and a black college dedicate to democrats as we've heard have been very good to joe biden in places like north carolina south carolina virginia why is bernie sanders not able to perform better with african-americans and can he do better with african-americans in the midwest than he has in the south. or maybe i'll take the

2nd half of that question 1st the state legislator who was on just a moment ago she said african-americans are not monolithic could use absolutely right and one thing we haven't seen too much is african-americans in the industrial midwest and the northeast voting yet we don't and those are that's a different demographic group than southern african-american so so they may go more for sanders we know that younger african-american voters do lean more towards senators and jesse jackson indorsement is significant and i'll tell you why 1st of all jackson actually carried michigan in 1908 in a massive upset a bigger upset than sanders is win in 2016 but it's also significant because in 1988 the number of prominent jewish americans who were supporting jesse jackson you could really count on one or 2 hands and bernie sanders was among them so this is this speaks to how how cinders has been an ally to at least some perks of the african-american world that maybe a lot of people aren't aware of so i think that could help. on the other hand he's

he's not close with the after american leadership in congress he wasn't seen as a kind of loyal lieutenant to obama the way biden was he sounded me has been attacking biden on on things like trade and not so forth but also over support for the war in iraq and also. biden's gaffes these are suddenly issues for joe biden do you think he biden can keep the momentum he has going until the convention and if he does get the nomination you know what will the rationale be to get young people those will support sanders to vote for him what is he offering other than a line about a return to decency the the the way to mobilize young people and i teach young people at mit i teach at columbia which is not which is not always a representative sample but i'm around young people the only way i see mobilizing these folks is by terrifying them about what another 4 years of donald trump will be and any democrat can do that whether it's biden or sanders or had been one of

the other candidates so in that regard i think it's doable but it has to be very negative why didn't doesn't inspire many people particularly many people under the age of about 30 or 40 that's the reality biden is is gaffe prone but that kind of understates it you know these are it's one of the extraordinary things about the race is that we went into this race concerned about biden's age it turns out he's the young guy in the democratic primary of the of the 2 got left standing so for both of them both of these guys are getting quite old we are see if i do or your father or your uncle you'd say you know he's getting old and he's losing it a bit but we're not sure we want to say that about the president did advantage he has is that he is the nominee he'll be running against someone who is in a much weaker mental condition i mean donald trump's incapacity is a much more grave problem on a health level than anything joe biden has faced i think i'm a tale as always very good to talk to you about the sink you very much for joining us on al-jazeera whether the do you tip. now oil markets have tumbled the most since the gulf war
