scientists say the virus could kill between 100240000 americans but without if it's like social distancing counter measures like shutdowns the toll could go far but modeled the worst case scenario of 1500000 to 2200000 deaths so what we're going to see and that's we've got to brace ourselves in the next several days to a week or so we're going to continue to see things go up we cannot be discovered by that because the mitigation is actually working and will work. a somber president trump said the mitigation measures were a matter of life and death i want every american to be prepared for the hard days that lie ahead we're going to go through a very tough 2 weeks. and then hopefully as the experts are predicting as i think a lot of us are predicting after having studied it so hard you can start seeing

infected in spain making it the 2nd worst hit country in europe after italy about one 3rd of the 8400 fatalities so far are elderly while however joins me now from madrid this controversial document that's come to light is going to embarrass the government and anger the public more than likely. yes well a spanish television from got a loony out had access to decent document published by the n.h.s. in the street journal and got that only after that has just there's a 2nd region in spain that has been more hit with the coronavirus with like 1672 death toll so these sir television got access to document what they publish a day indicate a protocol to follow with patients that are 80 or over 80 in the said document they say that they have to limit the effort in patients over 80 prioritizing the ones

that can benefit in terms of safety years or was possibility of surviving they recommend morphine instead are to those patients that do not react to oxygen so right now what we're doing is just. giving a 2nd thought to the document league and all the media in spain are echoing this this is this document as it is of the developing story the train of thought is that the spanish are thinking of doing we believe the same as the french in terms of moving 1000 patients to other parts of the country to take the pressure off the capital is that the case. well it was something that it was so it was a possibility on monday but yesterday they used the set up the situation was not so so so bad as to because it's truly dangerous and it takes a lot of time they didn't see it's a possibility that they did leave that door open but at the state it does not

necessary ok so if things get worse they have green lighted to do sell then we will see where they will take them how they will do so. like in france with a trained medical outrange or the army you never know so let's see how how they do it but at this stage we can say that in the last 24 hours the number of people that have been admitted in emergency units has drops of those those are good news and the death toll has increased but also all the emergency. units also have gone down so it looks like all the effects of the stuff the measures that the government approved this past weekend and that has extended this 15 days of the state of emergency until april 11th are you know we're seeing the consequences of the effects also the monitor what goes on certainly in spain with you but i think so much. more cases of quote a virus of immersion india has months to 10 days of

a muslim religious gathering in the capital new delhi as many as 2 and a half 1000 people from across the country and other nations where at the meeting $128.00 have tested positive or 30 s. of sealed off centers belonging to the missionary group and to tracking down those who attended but india is currently under lockdown with people order to remain indoors until april the 15th elizabeth random has more from new delhi on the dispute over whether the group should have been gathering at all. what the organization the mosques administration says is that this is a religious gathering that actually began at the end of february the main event was in early march and many of the 2000 people who took part decided to stay back at the mosques accommodation and when prime minister that in the morning announced a national curfew on sunday the 22nd of march he also very suddenly stopped all bus and train services around the country they say they were stranded but delhi authorities point out to the fact that religious gatherings were banned in delhi

for days before the curfew was in place so by continuing to take part stay in this very cramped accommodation that they were breaking the law in delhi's chief minister has actually ordered police to file a case of negligence that could have endangered hundreds of lives against the mosques administration india's health ministry saying that you know this is not the time to. there's not a time for finger pointing right now as the country faces a much bigger bashing of fighting coronavirus but this has led to you know so many cases now that there is there is a fallout over this china has confirmed 36 new coronavirus and factions beijing says all but one are imported cases for 40 is also began adding in symptomatic patients to their official count or 130 such cases have been recorded in the past 24 hours while president xi jinping described efforts to contain the pandemic as a final exam that everyone must learn from katrina you is in beijing she says

there's a growing public concern over so-called silent carriers of the virus. beijing is very much on the defensive about its coronavirus data in recent days we've seen local transmission slowed to a trickle sort of 0 or single digit numbers over the past week or so and the government has all but declared victory over this outbreak but the good of the public here in china has very much not let their guard down and they have been concerned now for some time about asymptomatic carriers or just people who have covered $1000.00 but don't present with any symptoms now china has never added asymptomatic carriers to its official tally which is against world health organization guidelines and the government has said it's because there's very little evidence that the silent carriers are infectious in wider society but we do know some very well publicized cases here in china of the past few days of some people indeed catching covert 1000 from people who were asymptomatic and because of

this and because of public outcry the government has started to change its true sir from today and wednesday they have started to announce the number of new asymptomatic cases daily so today when they were announced 130 new asymptomatic cases adding to a total of $1367.00 but of course the chinese government has changed the way it counts its coronavirus cases several times of the past few months leading many to question the government figures and the official tally which as of today stands at about $81000.00 but of course analysts say that that figure could be very much much higher than that. well still ahead here on al-jazeera a u.s. navy captain says the virus is spreading uncontrollably on his ship but his calls for help are going unanswered and millions of jobs under threat in bangladesh as close thank trains news orders and close their doors.

hello the showers are widespread surat science east asia that's the big surprise they should be seeing more i think in the next few weeks and even immediately showing up in the philippines in vietnam in thailand cambodia for example they are there but the concentration the heavy ones are still further south borneo and java so the way city eastwards and back to sumatra singapore and calling for a both in that time the year the sherry regime daily thunderstorms growing as the heat builds doesn't vary much for humidity certainly increased and that's a picture for friday no significant change now in australia there has been a significant change a massive cloud running through south australia has brought very big downpours flooding all over the place but of course the rain is there to be used and

collected the picture for thursday to take it all the way through new south wales and victoria with the head of concentration down in tasmania or the sea when it's raining it's not that warm 18 degrees but once heavy and behind it we're in the middle twenty's in perth it remains far and a southerly breeze has not knocked the temperature down much we've got 25 degrees on 1325 on friday as the rain on friday it concentrates on sydney. full of struggles full of pleasure to play when police look at it yeah it's pretty much what i said. the lot of the game in this earthly way that i'm in the wrong place about them but i me the route i want to be an intimate look at life in cuba is working mom or what i like i say ok perfect but the comment that made

a year ago my cuba. on al-jazeera. but the bucket watching al-jazeera means a whole rom a reminder of our top stories more than 4000 people in the united states have now died from coronavirus donald trump is warning americans to prepare for the hard days that lie ahead white house health experts say the virus could kill up to 240000 people. also a leaked document published by spanish media says doctors are being advised not to admit coronavirus patients aged over 80 into intensive care more than 95000 people

have been infected in spain making of the 2nd worst hit country in europe after italy. and almost $130.00 people have now got coronavirus after attending a muslim religious gathering in new delhi authorities in india have sealed off the areas where the meeting happened and are trying to trying down those who attended. let's return to the u.s. where at least $100.00 soldiers assailants partly on board a u.s. nuclear powered aircraft carrier have tested positive for the coronavirus where the captain of the theodore roosevelt told the pentagon that the virus is spreading uncontrollably and called for immediate help to quarantine the crew but defense secretary mark aspers says it's not the right time to evacuate the people on board our correspondent particle hane who spent time on board the ship is following developments from the state of maryland. i can tell you that this could get x. initially worse much much quicker than we've seen just in the general public and

here's why there are 17 levels of stairs and lights on the aircraft carrier us and if you go to the stairs they're pretty steep they're pretty dangerous you have to hold the ground so that didn't you touch your face you touch the railing another 5000 people are going to use you know savings as arabs they sleep less than half of the list of groups about a foot have such a tight corner they can actually rule over in your sleep because your shoulders for this and they all eat together so they have the ships and it's really extraordinary another thing we have to have that when you was $5000.00 people sailors aboard the ship and you have 10 percent board for security for cleaning and what we see is a part of the secretary of defense interview saying it's not time to do that when shit that is in sharp contrast to what this captain said just times that the

essence he wants to see some sort of warranty barracks and. well you heard about the pressure on health services in spain and there's a similar story across europe in the united kingdom the n.h.s. is facing difficulties with the military drafted in to help build a temporary hospitals across the country at least 800 people have died there so far let's bring in lawrence lee who joins me now from the british capital amman was with numbers of the dead in various countries now being questioned trust is becoming a real issue for the public at large. well yeah i do think it's worth bearing in mind that despite the awful numbers coming out of various countries it is still the case that the vast vast majority of people aren't going to die and the vast majority of people want to know how long the lockdowns are going to last for and when they can go back to work and leave the house and all of those things because the social economic pressure of all this is

going to be enormous and the and the thing is when people are starting to ask these questions of politicians you're not getting straight answers at the moment and a lot of the reason why is because they seem to be not are the backs and or design not on top of issues to do with adding up the numbers of people who died or who've got the virus or who have had the virus in this country for example they're way behind on testing well behind countries like germany. and it is impossible for them to say how long the lockdown is going to last for without actually knowing who's infected and who has had it because clearly those people could go back to work but if you don't know who that it's then you can't make any sort of accurate guess as to how long the lockdowns going to last for and i think this is going to become increasingly a problem for people because there are daily briefings in all these countries and journalist keep asking the politicians do you know how many people are affected by

this and i'm afraid of the moment there aren't enough straight answers because there is enough testing going on the world health organization has been saying for weeks and weeks and weeks they detest as many people as you possibly can and for one reason or other it's not happening and it seems lawrence certainly on the european mainland political and economic arguments are really continuing and getting much more deeper within the e.u. . yeah there is something of a crisis now on both economic and political level inside the european union as an institution on the political level this week hungary which is deeply euro skeptic in the 1st place the parliament passed a law allowing viktor orban the prime minister to rule by decree there is no parliament now in hungary the there won't be elections until further notice you can get put in jail for 5 years now folk won't spreading false rumors whatever that means now you know the army not only does the idea of suspending democracy slowly fly right in the face of any sort of idea about what the your opinion supposed to

be about clearly there is no reason anybody else can see as to why you would need to suspend parliamentary democracy to try to fight the virus in hungary they haven't been that many cases and so the european commission is deeply worried about this the former italian prime minister matter renzi has said $100.00 should be expelled from the european union if it carries on so that's a big problem equally on the economic level is a huge round now between northern european countries into in the netherlands and germany and southern european countries about how to bail out countries like spain and italy which have been the hardest hit and italian prime minister says it could put the whole of the european union at risk because an entire projects now i mean we're only about 6 weeks into this in europe and so either they're going to find some solutions to these things or is going to get a lot worse but you can absolutely see the ground shifting right in front of your eyes for the update lawrence thanks for joining us lawrence lee there in london while staying in the u.k. and a little earlier i spoke to stephen and nick clegg downy a couple from chester in the northwest of england whose jobs have been severely

affected by the pandemic but they say they're adapting to a new way of life at the minute. you know we're just. going to washington hopefully. yeah it's tricky but. the right things so obviously you've you've lost your job at the moment nicholas obviously as a school teacher the rules are different for you because you're a key worker work at primary school and i teach 3 yeah groups and i'm not where at the moment and on friday we'll begin to another primary school to help out. in the matrix. i mean last then. well florence. i'm trying a parent. and an educator as well i'm sure it is difficult as you know parents are

there will be no payment we have no certainty no what assurance from anybody that they're going to be taking it. all so all our lives for are that riggin accessory everything's lining up is that so the immediate impact is basically the workers' lives the garment manufacturers an export has objects members to consider shutting their factories to limit the spread of the corona virus but those who planned to make personal protective gear to fight the pandemic can remain open and showing workers stay safe i'm not going to want to go to kind of the concept of can we feel that as long as they are in the factory and safe our factories i'm intending safety in or aspects before entry and that everyone has to go through all hygiene procedures and that's it for. economic storm business experts say if the government must allocate funds to help those who becomes jobless specially if they are on low incomes prime minister shake us in has announced plans for
