both the recognize the both sides have legitimate grievances do you believe the modi is a fascist or poor kids don't have all gone they taking debate with upfront on al-jazeera. this is al jazeera. hello and welcome to this news hour with me kevin l. in doha with continuing coverage of the coronavirus pandemic i developed model symptoms the corona virus that's to say a temperature and a persistent cough. it has reached the very top of the u.k. government prime minister abbas johnson and his health secretary have both tested positive. spain records its highest death toll gas hospitals filled beyond capacity

treating people in colorado. south africa and else its 1st deaths as police and the military start enforcing a 3 week lockdown also. it's worse than the recession it's worse than. its planes it grounded for could be months will look at how the aviation industry will emerge from the crisis. and in sports germany's top 4 football teams pledge more than $20000000.00 to help other clubs league bosses say a quarter of a 1000000 jobs are under threats to the football shut down. the british prime minister abbas johnson has tested positive for the covered 19 coronavirus as has his health secretary matt hancock both been announced the news

of via videos posted online describing their symptoms as mild prime minister johnson says it won't stop him from leaving the government's response i've developed model symptoms over the coronavirus that's to say a temperature and a persistent cough and on the advice of the chief medical officer i've taken a test that has come out positive so i am. working from home i'm so far isolating and that's entirely the right thing to do. but be in the dark that i can continue thanks to the with technology to communicate with all my top team to lead the national fight back against corona bars. returning to spain where 769 people have died in just 24 hours that is a record single day figure for the european country the us has overtaken china with the highest number of coronavirus coronavirus cases more than 86000 people

a known to have contracted it well here is the tame the cell model herero is a madrid natasha butler is in southwest france shall tell us how hospitals in paris could be overwhelmed within days white house correspondent could be helped it is monitoring the u.s. house of representatives which is debating a 2 trillion dollars virus relief bill and diplomatic editor james bays that the u.n. where member states have dolls and for virtual mating let's start though and landed with joy to how boris johnson has the virus what do we know. well you heard the prime minister himself there insists that he is still in charge that he is still running the government and leading the fight against the corona virus his health secretary matt hancock we know is also in self isolation having been somehow to having been infected with the coronavirus as well also working at home both men have mild symptoms we understand from 10 downing street

behind me that boris johnson has basically switched offices with his chancellor the chance of the expected research whose office is in number 11 that puts johnson's new office closer to his residence so that he can form a sort of cordon sanitaire between the 2 with food brought to his door and continue working from isolation inside he was last seen in person outside the front door of number 10 at 8 pm on thursday night when he joined the rest of the country many people up and down the country who came out to their front doors their front porches their balconies and led a round of applause for health workers and n.h.s. stuff across the country. which also was also out there though it was noted at the time he was standing at quite some distance away from the prime minister it's since transpired that he developed these mild symptoms a cough and a temperature during the off 2 took a test it came back positive at midnight he then at 915 this morning shared a meeting an emergency cabinet meeting a daily need to have senior ministers he did so of course remotely via video link

telling them of his status before releasing the news to the nation to a taking now goes into 7 days of isolation not the 14 days but the government guidance says households should endure if one person in the household has the virus and that's because number 10 for current purposes is being treated not as a residence but as a workplace and jonah as events in boston says the symptoms of for now mild if they get worse is this someone else waiting in the wings. yes there is an agreed plan. the prime minister's symptoms worsen significantly such that he's on able to carry out his duties the foreign secretary dominic robb who sits in the foreign office just opposite downing street would then fill his shoes for so long as it takes for the prime minister to get better so there is a clear line of succession. so to speak and there is no reason ostensibly why the function of government should continue albeit with

a massive difference and that is like most of the workers in this country the prime minister himself is now working from home so in a hall with some extraordinary developments out of the u.k. live from london thank you well it's going to spain with every quarter nearly 800 deaths in the past 24 hours their highest number in a single day mata heroes live for us in madrid this year's model this is a grim milestone is it not. and these years according to health minister figures reported today more than 64000 people are infected by the corona virus in spain and we have reached a death toll of nearly 5000 people but the most worrying figures are the ones affecting the n.h.s. workers from 64000 people infected by a current of ours in spain 9000 type 100 our health care workers are nurses and doctors that are battling with or on our partners in the front line the represent 100 percent of the total of people infected nationwide this is one of the reasons

why there's this sort of health care workers and the situation is very broad level you know the hospitals here are overwhelmed nurses and doctors are doubling their ships and they don't have to kind of cope with the virus anymore even in the last being infected so what they are and they're demanding the spanish government is the supply immediate all protecting gear and protected equipment that they're running out of they don't have so we should this is very concerned about this situation right now thanks for that update there martha herrera live for us from madrid. well france says hospitals in and around paris are at breaking point as infections the prime minister says hospitals in the capital could reach capacity within days paris and its suburbs now account for a quarter of all hospitalized covert 19 cases france recorded its highest daily death toll on friday bringing the total there to more than $1600.00. joins us now

live from southwest france natasha's who looks like france is heading for more trouble. yes the french prime minister. speaking to other members of the french government on a video conference earlier today and after a t. came out and gave a brief statement and really his message was that the next few days in the farms are going to be in his words very difficult indeed because he says that what france's facing is a new wave of coronavirus cases particularly in the north of the country in the paris region where he said hospitals and clinics are already becoming such a rated now the really the hotspot if you like in france of course in a forest case up to now has really been the east of the country the alsatian region their hospitals have been so overwhelmed that european neighbors have stepped in germany luxembourg switzerland taking patients that are critically ill from

treating them in their hospitals over the border patients of also been transported for me some all the hospitals in the rest of the country by train but what the prime minister is saying is the situation that we've seen in eastern france is this desperately badly affected area is now going to spread to the rest the country to the north of paris and he says of course not only those regions because it is all over the country and this is what we need to prepare for he says everybody is mobilized he says that is prepared but people must continue to stay at home as much as they can without a similar message from the french president earlier this week when he said that the very worst in france is still to come. with the latest there the situation across from thank you. well in washington the u.s. house of representatives that is debating a stimulus bill worth more than 2 trillion dollars that's aimed at propping up the economy it has already passed the senate let's get more now from our white house correspondent kelly hellcat who is live for us and washington d.c.

kimberly legislation at the time of coronavirus seems to be a very different affair house it all going. yet not so well it was expected that this was something that could be passed because it's bipartisan legislation meaning democrats and republicans support it they were going to do it with a voice vote get it quickly passed in the house of representatives and on the desk of the u.s. president to sign but in the last hour or so had a bit of a snag if you will of the u.s. president not happy about it essentially there is a member of the president's own republican party that seems to be holding up this legislation that would mean this would now require a voice vote or rather a regular roll call vote which is a lot more difficult given the fact not all the members are here in fact the house of representatives had to be hastily assembled to get this it wasn't recess and some of the members are not coming back because they're in self isolation concerned they've been exposed to someone that has coronavirus back to members have even

tested positive so this is not going to stop the legislation what it's going to do is delay it again the u.s. president not happy tweeting about it talking about how the members just need to accept what's in this deal not everyone likes it but it's important to get it through to help american workers he says it is hell dealing with the dems had to give up some stupid things in order to get the big picture done 90 percent great then he goes on to say win back the house but throw massy that's representative massey out of the republican party so again not very happy why is the president pushing so hard on this he was to see this money injected into the economy remember that's a big thing that donald trump was pinning his reelection hopes on of course it's tanked in recent days and weeks as a result of coronavirus not only does he want to see this legislation passed him but he also wants to potentially get some areas of the united states back on track meeting workers get back to work he intimated this is coronavirus task force

briefing late yesterday at around $21.00 g.m.t. when he said that he's looking at some of those areas that are low risk looking at the data potentially trying to get some of those back to work saying that he would have some guidance the weekend regarding which workers which counties might be able to go back to work instead of staying home which is what public health officials are recommending complete elka with licensed in the us live from washington d.c. thank you. well the impact of the crowd a virus is the focus of a meeting happening right now with the united nations whose members are not gathering at their usual positions like much of the world they are holding talks all line some presidents mission of copied 19 you know coordinated where use quickly as possible that must be our common strategy and that implies we need massive support to increase the response capacity of developing countries and those in the most fragile i'm complex 2nd we must work together to minimize the social economic impact widely quiddity of the financial systems must be assured our

overarching emphases must be on the human dimension this is a human crisis not a financial one led diplomatic editor james bays it is that the united nations in new york and joins us now live james given the sometimes disjointed sometimes lackluster response we've seen from these big international blocks i'm thinking the g. 7 the g. 20 what can we really expect from the u.n. today. well it's certainly true that the un is struggling to cope and there you saw the secretary general also the president of the general assembly president of the security council briefing all the $193.00 members of the u.n. saying we're all in this together the reality is every single nation for now has been fending for themselves the secretary general launched a global humanitarian fund he wants $2000000000.00 to help the most needy in the

world those that are living in the poorest countries those that are living in refugee camps those are living in war zones and there haven't been that many concrete pledges at this stage i think one of the problems is just how they work now because the way diplomacy works normally is face to face in the seat of the u.n. is here in new york and this is one of the worst affected places the u.n. is using a rather creaky old video conferencing system they need to get that sort of thing sorted out at this stage because clearly the u.n. does around the world when it can marshal them have all sorts of resources it has those peacekeeping missions particularly in africa it has the vast resources of its humanitarian arms but what it needs is support in terms of money and resources from its member states and it needs to encourage them to look beyond their borders and not many countries are doing that right now thank you that said that the diplomatic

editor dame's bays there at the united nations in new york and u.s. and china have to work closely together to find the pandemic using paying and donald trump agreed to boost corporation during a phone call difficult parliament holds. not long ago most of the world had shouted stores on china but now it's china that's closing its borders to those from outside it's the latest in a series of measures to prevent a 2nd outbreak in the country where the current a virus 1st surfaced last year with nearly no locally transmitted cases this week china is loosening its restrictions on movement and says the threat is now from overseas on friday the united states surpassed china's the country with the most coronavirus cases prompting a phone call between the 2 world leaders. the u.s. president had initially labeled it a chinese virus but he described his 1st interaction ping since the outbreak began 3 months ago as very good as the rest of the world battles with wising cases in an

unusual g. 20 teleconference the chinese president called for leaders from the major economies to work together. now is a crucial moment a time for us to rise up to challenge an octopus witness i'm convinced that through solidarity i meet choicest and we will prevail over this outbreak and we all will embrace a price a future for mankind hong kong is fighting the spread of the virus on 2 fronts both locally transmitted and imported cases are rising daily despite social distancing measures and a ban on nonresidents entering the territory. on friday it's reported its biggest jump in cases in a single day pushing the government to issue its most drastic directive yet banning almost all public gatherings of more than 4 people at the height of the outbreak in china hong kong seem to manage to contain the spread of infections in the city but in recent weeks as cases went into decline across the border hong kong suffered

a 2nd wave with cases nearly tripling in just a week countries in southeast asia are scrambling to put restrictions in place as the virus spreads rapidly in the region but there is concern the rush to impose measures could be worsening the outbreak thailand shutdown of businesses and restrictions on movement has sent hundreds of migrant workers from me and mark fleeing home across the border to a country that has only declared a few cases so far a reminder that in an interconnected world caught in a pandemic one country struggle consumed become a global challenge if you go pollen all jazeera hong kong. and another warning has been issued about the financial impact of the virus this from the organization for economic co-operation and development or o.e.c.d. it says that for every month a major country's economy is shut down its annual growth will drop by 2 percentage points these lockdowns it predicts will directly affect sectors that make up

a 3rd of g.d.p. in major economies the travel and tourism industry alone faces a decrease in ald put of anywhere between 50 and 70 percent and the international monetary fund has just warned that the world has entered a recession that's as bad or worse than the global financial crisis more than 10 years ago the i.m.f. says recovery could be possible in 2021 but only if the virus is contained as soon as possible thomas gift is a lecturer in public policy and economics at university college london he joins us on skype from london thank you so much for your time so trump i wonder what the u.s. 1st of all trump is going to hear from the coronavirus task force about opening the country up he's got this huge focus on the economy even as the u.s. as we've been reporting has taken the title for having the most coronavirus cases in the world what is going on there. well i think trump is certainly concerned with

the political ramifications of having the u.s. economy close for an extended period some score argument for reelection up until this current crisis was that the united states has been enjoying one of the best economies of our generation he's counted the surging stock market mo unemployment and rising incomes across this should be ashamed of course the coronavirus it would brought all of that to a halt and the longer it stays closed the harder it will be to achieve a recovery by november there are none of this year when the election it's so at this point the federal reserve has already dropped interest rates to virtually 0 there's been a 2 trillion dollars stimulus package that's been agreed upon the largest in the country's history but the economy is still going to continue to lag it so long as many businesses and industries for me an open so trump really thinks that his prospects for a 2nd term can significantly on ensuring that it's little damage is done to be calm as possible and tell us just in the in the last few minutes we've had as i mentioned from the international monetary fund saying that the world has entered

a recession that is as bad or worse than the global financial crisis more than 10 years ago that is going to be bad news for donald trump who as we've been saying is so the focus on getting the economy back up and running. absolutely i mean if there's one thing the political scientists know it's that a huge factor in whether presidents get reelected you know that any country particularly united states is whether voters think that they're doing better now than they were a year ago 4 years ago and so up until now a lot of voters have thought that's absolutely the case in the united states but now it's absolutely probably not the case with so many businesses close so many people unemployed so many people being laid off or out of work and so this is a real issue and it could have significant political ramifications i think going into the next few months election do you think the tide 10 against don't want as

the numbers of confirmed cases in the u.s. continues to grow there's been a lot of criticism about the difficulty of getting testing done and the number of ventilator is there are available do you think there will be public anger towards him. that's a great question and it's certainly plausible that as the united states increasingly becomes the epicenter of the quantum virus that donald trump's approval numbers will begin to slide depending on how voters perceive his management of the crisis but i will say you know as much as democrats would like to focus on the need to missteps at the trumpet ministration particularly in the early going in the outbreak and i think there's plenty of there to criticize at least right now we don't seem to see trump's approval ratings taking a major hit in fact recent data from gallup shows that trump earns a 60 percent approval rating among americans on how he's handled the crisis and overall his approval rating stands at about 49 percent so this is really consistent

i think with the fact that trump just has a very loyal base and tortoise loyal base and we've seen this time and again republican voters stuck with him through the mall or investigation repeat win over ukraine and so there's probably a good reason to think that this won't be much different simply because so many voters seem to look at every single issue including this one through a largely partisan lens thank you for your analysis great to have you on the program thomas gif there electra in public policy and economics at university college want to thank you. the pandemic is causing an unprecedented crisis in the airline industry billions of passengers going nowhere because some of the world's best known carriers have grounded the things and when this is all of the industry experts expect big changes perhaps even see if it is done hendrick has a story from chicago. the global pandemic his grounded a recently soaring airline industry leaving planes idle in

al-jazeera chicago. now even though the number of coronavirus cases is low in syria there are big warry is that this will change and very quickly millions of displaced people live in the northwestern province of idlib which has a weak health system destroyed by years of conflict 5 covered 9000 cases have been reported spent many concerned the virus will soon reach them sit in coffee all that has more. hundreds of thousands of tents and had lived lined up by the turkey syria border most are overcrowded and like basic facilities and many living here are worried that makes them more vulnerable to an outbreak of coronavirus other aid workers here are briefing people on how to cope if there is an outbreak and i don't know anything about it i just heard i'm learning about it now some say in how to cook sanitation puts them at greater risk through iowa low matthew protection come

on for the money like water how can we wash our hands that often a little my thanks they are getting help in sterilizing tents and houses but in a country that suffered 9 years of war much infrastructure is damaged medical supplies are insufficient and health workers scars health officials are warning that about 100000 people could die in north with syria if they don't get the supplies and equipment they need. we just 1. 101100 bits. we just there. are others. about response or we're not we have to reach at the boat or not but i don't believe it or those that are certain i'll. read your book so now i don't see that. one. or.

grown up. this device is one of only 3 in a that can detect coronavirus. we received 3 test kits to cave in $1000.00 yesterday from the world health organization each can do $100.00 tests it won't be enough and millions read least we can confirm if we have a case so far blood samples from just a few people have been studied. the government has confirmed some cases of the virus across the country but as the fight is ongoing here so is trade and that contact with the outside brings the risk of people being in fact it. is live is the standard on foreign aid and donors for medicine and hygiene products some health workers here say they have yet to respond effectively to the situation leaving many who have suffered 9 years of who are vulnerable and scared as they face the threat

of a global pandemic. al-jazeera. and the news a head's going into battle in the strait here we'll hear what what is the armed forces are being given to fight the crowd of virus. and cricket's most lucrative league faces some big decisions and he's here with that story. hello there more rain across northern sections of the middle east with nothing but rain really for the last week or so and it's no also about to die away any time soon it's continuing to really impact much of turkey and then push its way through syria iraq and on the yes again into these well western areas of iran still if you want to keep it away from northern sections of pakistan but the temperatures fairly mild in kabul with a high there of 12 celsius up into northern sections of afghanistan that is clear

across much the arabian peninsula although we have got quite a lot. the cloud showing up on the wind is a pretty strong as well so this could well kick us in sand and dust a similar story that by sunday that is when the rains a little becomes quite a lot heavier and particular again through these western areas southern areas all the way as has the recent flooding so it could be a similar scenario by the time the weekend is over a bunch of rain showers still in the fall cos across madagascar again we've had heavy rain here and we could see some localized flooding and also the big easy quite a few showers have very well asc ass's on across tools and heavy amounts of rain but it's mostly dry throughout much of south africa we have got the chiles a few showers on sunday maybe a few just pushing into the south africa dry ahead of that in cape town and all feeling too bad with a high of 22. from

the. watching all just there on a reminder of our top story since our britain's prime minister has tested positive for the corona virus and says his symptoms of mild self isolation and will use video calls to continue his role as the leader of the virus response to health secretary matt hancock has also tested positive for the oldest. authorities in spain of reported a jump in the number of deaths from the corona virus with nearly $800.00 new fatalities in just 24 hours and brings the total death toll to more than 4800. and in washington the u.s. house of representatives is debating

a stimulus bill worth more than 2 trillion dollars that's aimed at propping up the economy during the corona virus outbreak if it passes it goes to the president's desk for signing. ok says across latin america have surpassed 10000 and there have been nearly 200 deaths the 1st case was reported back in february in brazil which has become the regional at the center in america editor lucy and human is live for us from santiago in chile so you see here that america is now well and truly in the grip solve this virus just give us the overall picture. yes absolutely the majority of countries have in fact declared partial or total quarantine but not brazil and not mexico and here's some of the numbers brazil has nearly 3000 confirmed cases and 77 confirmed deaths chile where i am now is the 2nd highest 1610 to confirm cases 5 deaths and mexico under

600 but they were at least 2000 under suspect and ecuador has about 1300 confirmed cases but very worrisome has 29 people confirmed deaths which proportionately is much higher than you would expect and the reason for this is that there are very few tests taking place region wide which is why a lot of experts say that they believe that the real amount could be 10 fold in other words 10 times more than what we're seeing now in a region that has very little resources very few resources in the public health center to deal with this kind of a pandemic as we know some people are bracing for the worst in some cases are quarantining themselves even before the government imposed. you know we've been hearing it's not always police or official authorities who are enforcing lockdowns or encouraging lockdowns in some cases gangs are playing a role what can you tell us about that. absolutely you know it's as extraordinary

as it may sound the president of brazil who has 13 cabinet members who were infected by the by the virus he was tested twice according to him negatively true or the colin dying teen still keeps sounding as though this is just something that more than a bad cold or not much more than a bad cold so the guys in some of the reals largest bellows or slums are imposing quarantines full absolute quarantine. or city of god which you may have heard of it was a very famous movie that was filmed in that slum in brazil back in the year 2000 and so they're beginning to take matters into their own hands to try to compensate for the fact that the government in the views of many many brazilians is not doing what it should think that that's a latin america at its head of saying human with the latest out of chile thank you for turnout for development we brought you earlier warnings from the international

monetary fund that the wall has already slumped into a deep recession the i.m.f. says it's as bad or worse than the global financial crisis which began 2008 let's go live to kristen salumi who is in new york christiane what else is the i.m.f. saying. well the managing director of the i.m.f. christine and georgina did more and that we are in the midst of a global recession she is not the 1st to say this but coming from the head of the international monetary fund it's obviously a big deal she says that a recovery by 2021 m. is likely but only if central banks around the world take very aggressive measures to in her words stop. the issues from becoming solvency issues basically so that people don't post that companies and businesses don't go so far into debt that they just can't recover and she's warning that the poorest countries around

the globe don't have the reserves to deal with this that they are going to need help from the richer countries of the world so a stark warning from the i.m.f. she also compared this to the financial crisis of 2008 and i think that's interesting sitting here in new york where we've been watching stock markets rise and fall for the last few weeks on news of the coronavirus there's been a lot of comparisons to the great recession of 2008 the great depression of the 1930 s. as wow this week we're watching the markets again be down with this news from the i.m.f. the dow and the s. and p. are down more than 3 percent but this after a 3 day rally. the volatility is really indicative of major stress on the economy and i think that's what's clear from the i.m.f. slated statements as well i think that that is christensen movie live from new york

. well also in new york is our correspondent deborah elizondo is of course the a.p. sent to all of the u.s. outbreak standing outside a hospital he explained how long lines and frustrations are growing. these are all people that are sick that need to see a doctor and also want to get tested as well there's certainly a building health care crisis that's building here in new york city and where you can see it is right here at elmhurst hospital that i am at here in the queens neighborhood of the city the block the line goes for more than a block long. people arrive here before sunrise these are all people that are waiting to get into the hospital to see a doctor the problem is however is that this hospital is fool it's an emergency room hospital that is at or over capacity and doctors and nurses are struggling

to try to get people the help that they need just in this hospital alone there was 124 hour period where 13 people died as one doctor said the only way we're able to free up beds here is when someone dies and they're taken out of the hospital so the situation is very very desperate here for not only the patients that are trying to get in to get help but also for the medical workers you might have saw a couple nurses just walked by there a minute ago you also have police officers here managing things as best they can and there are over 300 new york police officers that actually have coronavirus themselves right here is where the crisis is playing out and probably the most ominous part of all of this is is that officials in new york say we are still 2 weeks away in new york from getting the peak of the most amount of people rushing

into the hospital to get care and we're already seeing scenes such as this. the south africa has reported its 1st 2 deaths from the corona virus outbreak also has the highest total of confirmed infections in africa more than $1000.00 police the warning anyone who violates the 3 week faces 6 months in prison. i mean i'm here has more now from johannesburg we've understood from the department of health here in south africa that those 2 deaths happened in the western cape province one in a public facility and the other in a private hospital and i think for many south africans the it really hits home that on africa has seen his 1st 2 deaths on day one of the slap down because we are still seeing people going out of their homes despite the government telling them to stay at home despite the government giving them a few days ahead of the guard down to do what was necessary in terms of the shopping and and preparing for the last hour we've seen long queues in some areas

in johannesburg where people are trying to get groceries we will we also understand that they are. stores that sell alcohol also still open despite the government saying of this would be bad and entirely i think the concern for the government at this point is people it hearing to these regulations just as it announced that it's a left because now it's in its 1st 2 deaths and also just 6 days ago there were $150.00 cases now we're looking at more than a 1000 for south africa only has about $7000.00 critical care beds that's divided and between that some belong to the public and others belong to the private sector between the 2 although potentially in theory about 3000 critical care beds available of that perhaps only half of all intensive care there is a big worry that there aren't enough beds available in south africa so that
