choices you make about where you go could be the difference between life and for someone else until now restrictions in the u.k. have been advisory rather than compulsory but in order for schools to shutter finally has come into effect the gates will not reopen on monday. at his latest daily coronavirus briefing the prime minister's guidance to leisure venues became a closure order we are quick to be telling telly cafes pubs bars and restaurants to close tonight as soon as they reasonably can and not to open to more newly published documents hint at the struggle ahead u.k. government's latest scientific advice makes sobering reading sage has warned the government that a combination of case isolation household isolation and social distancing of vulnerable groups is very unlikely to prevent critical care facilities being overwhelmed and in general social distancing and school closures to the mix would
12:05 am
probably work if kept in place for a long period how long the government has been warned the to be effective a policy of alternating between more and less strict measures would need to be in place for at least most of a year. around the world governments are enacting emergency powers imposing draconian restrictions and confining whole populations in their homes and there is no imminent exit strategy paul brennan al-jazeera. massive been hearing there in the u.k. prime minister has of course announce new measures to combat the virus let's get more now from the fark or he joins me now on set at neve lots to talk about the let's start and it's in the of course the death toll there has soared yet again and i stricter measures are coming into force in italy as well yes or the last time the official number was given it was 627 it may have gone up in the last hour or so we don't haven't yet got clarification but just to put that into perspective that's
12:06 am
the biggest single day jump in the death toll of any country since the beginning of the corona virus outbreak in china several months ago the average death toll in woburn province the height of its crisis 150 deaths a day in italy over the past few days we've been seeing an average of around 450 deaths so 627 an alarming number what the italian government are hoping to do is a ramp up restrictions we know the parks are now closed restriction of course places where people can gather in any any large number but despite it's a lockdown nationwide it encompasses all 60000000 or so people people in the past few days of still being able to go out to work in the message from chinese advises the red cross is that look you need to economically lock down the entire country if these measures are going to be effective we've seen the military being drafted in and lombardy where the principal city is milan the financial center it looks like
12:07 am
we may see a more intense military presence nationwide as the italians really try to bring this critical situation under control and let's turn our focus to the u.k. now this the still no looked at in here at all but the prime minister has been announcing more restrictions on daily mine. yes boris johnson announced that there is now an order for all bars restaurants cafes theaters to close as of this evening they will be closed indefinitely and that situation will be reviewed on a month by month basis obviously that's a big blow to these businesses who've been essentially holding out to the last minute but i think a lot of people been questioning why the british government haven't enforce this ruling now they believe it is time to do it they've been ramping up restrictions incrementally also a critical development in london in the last few hours in intensive care unit in a hospital and herro in northwest london announcing that they are overwhelmed with coronavirus cases 6 deaths there obviously alarming developments what we thought
12:08 am
was going to be a coronavirus peak in several weeks time looks to be happening much earlier than expected britain's national health service told to be prepared and be ready to provide an extra 30000 beds as soon as possible ok a very troubling situation indeed any parker thank you very much indeed for let's get more on this now and speak to sirius musk us he's an associate professor in cellular ringback and molecular sciences at northumbria university and joins us on skype good to have you with us here on the news hour that we have been hearing criticism of the u.k. government's gradual approach do you think that criticism is warranted. oh. cool. if if it was my choice i would have put us all into lockdown and implemented must create a world more than likely to occur however one has to take her also the economy into
12:09 am
account i wouldn't be surprised if several more sound alone we are told that this was a ranking up process to try and hammer home the message of this is serious but also shallow people the time to prepare. for a situation where we will all be social distancing and a lot down for an extended period but the u.k. government been assisting they've been following the science sounds like there could be no the fact is simply trying to prepare people in a behavioral science way or perhaps trying to safeguard the economy and what's really driving the government's actions why i think we're seeing so many disparate approaches worldwide. i think you need to ask each government about what drives their specific actions and they will probably tell you that the science of bias are against you if you look at the same report came out today asked how the apostleship
12:10 am
into the government and the committees are largely structured are on flu pandemics about behavioral science actually shows where the information will source and more kind of approach will spoke into this they were basically translating what we know about flu all to coronavirus and i'm not the 1st one to say this coronaviruses not float and that has been one of the major privacy on top of the we have to bear in mind that this is a very complicated society very complicated supply chains profit from food to electronics and you can't just shutter straight away there needs to be some kind of preparation the extent of preparation that is necessary i'm not the person to church there are some hoping for that decision to be taken to be taken with a more rounded view us the world needs to be up to doing to such the sit ins and well let's let's let's broaden our scope some warts and. it's talking about italy
12:11 am
we're seeing tragic numbers coming out of there mean it appears i mean this violent virus originated in china but it's killing far more italians than any other nationality why there was this. there is a debate as it is a very difficult question i think a coincidence about luck. luck of preparedness it actually probably has that blown so we had the skiing season if you like in italy the trucks people in the arts world why it's a slow boat to the region it's mostly factored from mostly be populated the soaps that patients come in with so they were just not recognized as the 1st few days alas we know now there's a 2 to 3 weeks where don't be doing which cases such going to have that takes over
12:12 am
and by the time the who knows what was happening doctors were already in fact of the virus there was a flood of people coming forward to come into the system on top of the heart italy house or one of the things the 2nd stage of population in the world and we know already that this virus shoots preferably the older members of our society so a combination of these 2 things seems to have really talked over hours or so it certainly does work i mean do you think i mean we're so learning about this virus mr learning about how it's affecting different populations worldwide do you think we're going to see other italy so begin to see other examples of 31 year olds in intensive care at the death toll the average death toll being over $45600.00 per day. don't think it's important to emphasize on the numbers day right now i think it's all know that the song young people will end up in i.c.u.
12:13 am
. there will be young people there will be children or that will go into i.c.u. that has clearly documented in china it will happen but in the population level we're talking about a very slow fraction of your population but will load up dying because of this disease unless of course provided that we can contain the flood of people into being terms of care yes we're going to have one slogan for our regular period if you like you know part but short but this is not about going forward you can actually the week after a car comes not compromising fire and so this is probably 'd brutal the signs are that things are going to get much sleep in the next couple of weeks but let's hope we won't be indeed let's hope it won't serious much cause thank you so much for joining us that far north on breaking it from northumbria university the key
12:14 am
message there is containment as much as possible and of course washing hands. as a sobering statistics continue to roll in the u.s. and mexico have now agreed to restrict non-essential travel across their shared border to contain the spread of the coronavirus and this follows a similar agreements between the u.s. and canada which is night in effect all recreational and tourist travel will be parts that people will be able to cross for work and the flow of goods won't be affected his president donald trump says he will also invoke a health focus law to block migrants from coming in. become fornia new york have also moved to restrict the movements of people how did you come straight joins there more if from washington d.c. with more know how you are hearing that the space of illinois has also followed
12:15 am
suits it really appears to be state go for leads in the crew and voters of the stage that's right in taking definitive leadership actions that does appear to be the case as you said ellen noise now is the 3rd state to issue these drastic orders to all of its residents as was just announced about an hour ago for everyone to shelter in place starting tomorrow until april 7th now president trump was asked to address these measures earlier in the day during his coronavirus briefing now with 14000 americans who are infected and more than 200 dead he was asked to stall directly to americans who are seen this happen and are scared but rather than answer the question he attacked the reporter calling that a nasty question and accusing the reporter of sensationalizing the story now even even as this was happening president trump also dug into his much pand comments
12:16 am
from yesterday claiming that an anti malarial drug is effective in treating the corona virus again calling this medicine a game changer he said that even though now a 2nd top u.s. scientists has contradicted that claim saying that there was no clement clinical evidence that the struggle was effective that it was all an anecdotal president trump then clarifying his statement saying that he simply had a good feeling about this drug now of course this is the same president who just 2 and a half weeks ago said that he thought this coronavirus may just disappear quote like a miracle hala. i will hardly aside from the briefing from president trump does also have a briefing from the pensacola and the us about all army corps engineers working with the city governments are just tools more of. that's right this is a pretty dramatic ramping up of the military response to coronavirus in the u.s.
12:17 am
with the army corps of engineer announcing that by the end of today it will be working with 18 state governments to increase hospital bed space and the medical response to this pandemic now not only is the military ramping up its response but also private industry there are reports that cruise liners have offered to use their crew ships docked at american ports to be floating quarantine units or hospital of what hospitals have warranted and also private industry manufacturers have now been allowed to sell industry grade respirator masks to hospital workers if needed which frees up potentially millions more of those masks in the face of shortages that we've seen across the country you can hear you joe castro brings all the very latest there from washington d.c. thank you very much indeed. have iran's supreme leader ayatollah ali come in
12:18 am
a sense the country will overcome the coronavirus pandemic and the economic fallout it's in a televised speech for the persian new year iran's highest authority said it was a mulcher this year for it reigning in this suffering on the u.s. sanctions he calls for the restrictions to be lifted so the country can receive much needed medical supplies in the 20000 people in iran in fact has more than 1400 have died saying the. sanctions by saying. it's been a difficult one for iranian so far they acknowledged that the coronavirus had been a very terrible challenge and defended the country's response despite the fact that many have been critical against the government for not taking this seriously enough soon enough but really what many people have been watching for is what they had to say about american sanctions now on the eve of the persian new year the united states placed more sanctions on iran more iran related sanctions this time
12:19 am
sanctioning 5 entities based out of the u.a.e. accusing them of facilitating iranian oil sales are now on tuesday just a few days earlier they placed sanctions on a handful of iranian nuclear scientists as well as entities based in pakistan russia china and the u.a.e. signaling that the americans are now targeting any countries or any entities that are becoming too close to iran once again we've seen the u.n. help we've seen the united nations various agencies even call for sanctions to be lifted along with echoing what many iranian leaders have been saying what this i.m.f. loan is earlier this month iranian officials reached out to the international monetary fund and said that we need $5000000000.00 in emergency aid as part of helping to respond to the coronavirus outbreak in iran one of the worst affected countries in the world and what many iranians have said all along is that they are hopeful that the international community will want to give them this aid but they are also very
12:20 am
aware and perhaps a cynical view but a realistic one that the united states will try to do whatever it can to block iran from getting that money. now argentina has adopted one of the strictest measures taken yet it's by any latin american country people will be allowed to leave their homes only for essential needs such as food shopping or visits to the chemist. he joins us now live from the colombian capital bogota other sound to just talk us through what's what's happening in argentina and i outlined the steps they're taking. well it's clear that the president. wants to take no chances when it's when it comes to try and stop the outbreak of the virus there despite having so far only $128.00 cases he has the side for a fool shutdown of the country and sensually imposing on every people to stay home
12:21 am
unless they work in central sectors that being food and medicine otherwise he said everybody needs to stay at home work from home study from home with if they can but otherwise try and not leave their house except if they need to buy again food or medicine he said that this will be enforced by the police on the streets and this seems to be quite in contradiction to what so far as happened for example in brazil the biggest country in latin america where despite more then 100 confirmed cases at this point the president here balsa narrow has been slow in responding to the outbreak has received a lot of criticism because of that but things might be changing there as well as state of emergency has now been declared freeing some funds to do more to fight the
12:22 am
epidemic in the country and we've heard earlier from the minister of health to the brazilian minister of health. who essentially said that he fears that the health services there could collapse by the end of april unless more is done and that he fears a big increase in the number of cases in the coming weeks he also said that he expected that the number of cases it could peak in brazil around june and possibly reach in july so we're looking at a number of months still and to see to wait. and getting much worse in brazil and so we're going to have to see if in coming days also in brazil we'll see more of the measures that are being taken in a number of trees across latin america for example banning international flights something that argentina up through and now colombia soon to do but that brazil
12:23 am
hasn't done yet except putting in place some restrictions sandra here in colombia will stay approach being taken there. well the president of colombia so far as as this site is to close schools and universities this has been the case for now more than a week most people the people who can are working from home but there hasn't been a full shutdown until today this is the 1st day of a 4 day long shutdown there was this side of the by the mayor of the capital here bogota colombia law as a sort of trial for what she fears will be coming in time that she expects to happen very soon and actually there is a growing consensus among the political parties here in the country that there is a need for a full shutdown the same that tina's put in place for colombia in the meantime
12:24 am
the president has also ordered all people 7070 year old and over to remain in their houses and starting on monday there will be no international flights into colombia even if you're a colombian when you're outside of the country you're not going to be able to come back for a month at least can sandra appear to bring us all the latest there from thank you very much. now these are unprecedented times for many health workers worldwide some have already been and faxes and the rest are at high risk now there are some fears the stress and exhaustion bill impact their mental and physical health priyanka gupta reports exhaustion takes on a whole new meaning for these health workers. every day around the clock thousands of doctors and nurses around the world are on the front line
12:25 am
fighting what's described as an invisible enemy. * in italy where the new coronavirus has killed more people than anywhere else in the world some hospital staff say they've reached breaking point because of the government they want to provide psychologically it's a very difficult we are trying to keep strong and not give up it will be at the end of this emergency that reveal see how we stand. as these doctors and nurses soldier on coping with the unprecedented pandemic concerns are growing about the likely psychological impact of the grueling hours and dealing with rising numbers of dead health care workers real heroes sounds out there but they also suffer from stress anxiety. break. i witnessed it in hong kong where they are at the forefront of this. in their personal protective equipment
12:26 am
it's uncomfortable and shortages of critical medical supplies in many countries have put their health at risk thousands of health workers have been infected in countries such as china and italy in our own side were low on i protection and 95 masks some sites are low on surgical masks and so you know when we are not protected and. then we certainly worry about our own health personal protective equipment or p p e r usually used by health workers who are in direct contact with infected patients it includes gowns medical mass gloves and eye protection like goggles that need to be disposed off after every patient china is the biggest supplier of moss but they are in short supply so hospital workers like in this facility in the u.s.
