a mask or not is no longer an option for those living in the czech republic because every citizen now has to wear surgical masks by law during the pandemic and across the country people have mobilized to make and distribute homemade moss for the entire population number of other european countries are also introducing similar measures on wednesday austria banned people from entering supermarkets without swearing a mass. for comment because it's not part of our culture it's going to be a big change but it's necessary to take this step and further reduce the spread. while local authorities in the german city of you also making it mandatory for shoppers the government in berlin warns it could give people a false sense of security the debates about masters happening also in other parts of the world on sunday czech prime minister on bridge bobby shirred u.s. president donald trump to adopt the same approach and reduce the spread of

coronavirus with the highest number of cases in the world u.s. health officials are contemplating whether to recommend wearing masks in public. physical overall shortage of protective gear putting at risk doctors and nurses who are at the front line of fighting couvade 19 since the pandemic started the world health organization has advised against people wearing masks unless they're infected with corona virus or caring for others who are but others in the medical field say the masks are needed since not everyone will show symptoms must remember that certain numbers are. actually asymptomatic so they even don't know yet in fact and actually you start to transmit it even before you go well. so i think universal masking is or to. be the number of confirmed cases rising in many parts of the world the need for medical protective gear is greater than ever but for now some frontline health workers have been forced to

recycle the masts and gowns they've already used so i don't hire that al-jazeera and for the 1st time china has added covert 1000 patients who show no some terms to it daily count 130 such cases have been recorded in the past 24 hours 1500 others have been put in quarantine the chinese government has repeatedly changed its counting the thought methodology leading to confusion over the exact number of cases reported katrina you has more from beijing. beijing this week is very much on the defensive about its coronavirus delta because recently a local transmission seemed to have slowed to a trickle we were seeing 0 cases all single digit cases reported daily over the past week and the government all but declared victory but the public felt very differently they had been concerned for some time about these asymptomatic cases that is people with covered 1000 who do not present symptoms now china has never

added these to its official tally against world health organization guidelines saying well authorities maintain that they didn't have any solid evidence that these cases will infectious in the community but over the weekend in recent days in china there have been some very well publicized cases proving that people have caught korvin 1000 from from asymptomatic carriers and now the government really has changed its tune from today on wednesday they've are going to start reporting daily new a cement asymptomatic cases so we've got $130.00 bringing the total of these cases asymptomatic cases to $1367.00 now in china the government has said that even though or they haven't added these to the official tally previously they have been protecting the community saying that even that these cases have been quarantined for the requisite 2 weeks when they have been discovered but people still are quite angry and also it's raised a lot of questions here because this isn't the 1st time china has changed the way

that it's counted coroner virus cases actually change the methods a number of times over the past few months and people really are critical and skeptical about these government figures now south korea's fight against the corona virus is continuing to receive more praise with 121 countries calling on saw to help them with testing at one point south korea the 2nd largest outbreak of the virus after china but has now decreased its rate of new infections to bought a 100 or fewer a day robert bride reports from the capital. along the banks of the 100 river many people are doing what they haven't done for weeks venturing outside enjoying the spring sunshine and the cherry blossom but with reminders everywhere to maintain social distancing of at least 2 metres apart other signs warn that as crowds build the avenues of cherry trees will have to be closed. i guess it's ok for people to see the cherry blossom enjoy it before they close

a road on the whole south korea has chosen not to enforce the kind of harsh measures adopted by neighboring china also now emerging from its own crisis. tashan the international community should consider their own situations and review both the chinese and south korean approaches and apply the measures that would be east in their own countries south korea's guiding principle in fighting the disease has been to get the voluntary support of the public rather than imposing lockdowns or completely closing borders with the outbreak seemingly under control it's a strategy that appears to have worked. the government's transparent handling of the outbreak has won the general trust of the people and although new cases continue to be reported there's a feeling the worst is over why should this be enjoyed as you know i was at inchy airport i was being tested for the virus at the walk through testing station

personally i don't think we are in a serious situation at the moment sort of hollow. their own very. looking at other parts of the world which are now in the midst of crisis we're just starting to grapple with what south korea has already gone through is reason for many here to be thankful robert bride al jazeera so. hello again the headlines on al-jazeera the u.k. has experienced its deadliest day of the coronavirus pandemic with 563 people dying in hospital more than 2000 frontline health care workers have also been infected the country's new hospital is expected to open in a matter of days and the number of corona virus infections in spain has passed 100000 that's a 3rd country to do so more than 860 people died in the past day another record
