nearly 11000 people with $800.00 new deaths in the last 24 hours that this is the best figure since last week so these vision feet years indicate that there's a change in the trend as the health minister reported yesterday that we might be seeing this phase of have some records that were loose asian and also indicated that we might be reaching the peak of the curve the maximum of number of people infected from coronavirus in in spain this by the speaker health minister also slanted to recommend that widespread use of maps of maps against chrono virus prime minister better sanchez tell them. that meeting this morning with all the experts these describe and that is in charge of monitoring of the the betterment of coron a virus outbreak in spain is weekly meeting and he used about to announce shortly

the extension of 15 days more of this lockdown to the state of emergency so spain might be going extending this the state of emergency lockdown until april 26th. the fight to secure medical equipment now also causing spain international pensions tell us about that. well a span as many other countries will lie have been struggling to get medical aid from a all the markets from china we got we bought this test last week that when we got to spain they were not illegal and we had to return the and in the scale so turkey has seized 150 ventilators of that were bought 2 to china from spain and this cargo arrived 3 weeks ago only over you know you've got it under customs tarkus customs have retained the experience this 150 bentley later we know that 4 and a firm minister have been trying to bring all these cargo you to spain with no luck

at all to the spanish embassy there and. turkey said al gore it is a saying that they going to keep the peace but going to seize this 150 ventilators in case they need them. all right over there thanks so much mark that out of iran is one of the world's worst affected countries with some $55000.00 cases of infection a range of u.s. sanctions on the country is adding more pressure to its ability to respond the u.n. has called for the sanctions to be eased to help deal with the outbreak rather reports from that arm some people are trying to return to normal despite government orders. the last 24 hours we've seen 158 new reported deaths from the corona virus this is the largest it's been in recent days we've also seen 22560 new cases so that is lower in terms of overall infection rate that we than we've seen in the recent days but the numbers are staying steady and this is happening at

a time when the nauru's holiday period has ended and what we're seeing on the streets of tehran is that people are beginning to come out of their homes they are beginning to return to work there is more traffic on the roads people are opening shops and businesses despite the fact the government state or stay at home order or stay at home suggestion to its people remains in place the health ministry has said that this is a worrying sign that they understand that people need to go back to work that they need to continue to carry on with their lives to be able to make money to pay their rent to be able to purchase food and just to go on living but they have said that this is a worrying trend and if that continues that we could see a 2nd wave of this infection and they've warned against people starting to emerge into their normal routine they're saying that the trend of people going to hospital for corona virus has not gone down and we are not out of the woods yet however in iran we are seeing people trying to return to their normal lives siren sounded

across china to mock folk old martha's day. millions from beijing to will hand on hundreds of all the towns and cities stood in silence to honor the more than 3000 people who've died from coronavirus china trying to now curb the spread of the virus but some restrictions have been tightened again to prevent a 2nd wave of infection. 82000 confirmed cases in china most have already recovered a country to you has more. this is to really to remember the lives of those who have lost their life to covert 1000 here in china more than 3000 people according to official figures and it's also to honor the lives of 14 health workers doctors and nurses who have been designated as national masses who are who lost their lives while they were tracing coronavirus patients mostly into bay province and that list

includes dr lee when lee young who was famously one of the 1st whistleblower doctors to call attention to the outbreak late last year when it was 1st beginning now this is the 1st time that china has held such a such a day for a public health disaster this is previously only happened because of natural disasters such as earthquakes and as we mentioned earlier health officials in the u.s. announced new guidelines on the use of face masks to hold the spread of the virus but president trump says he has no intention of following them around a quarter of a 1000000 people in the u.s. are confirmed to be infected habitants he has more. in week may have been reports of a debate within the u.s. government on whether to recommend the use of norm of the ku klux mosques whenever people go outside and on friday the decision was announced the c.d.c. is advise in the use of non-medical cloth face covering as religious you know voluntary public health measures almost immediately don't trump undermine the

advice. but this is voluntary i don't think i'm going to be doing it. authorities hope the public weren't mistake this advice their permission to wear specialist masks which should be reserved for those treating the infected and would mean that they feel they no longer feel they need to stay in isolation the president also issued an order preventing the export of personal protective equipment such as and 95 masks to ensure the u.s. a supply of over troubles i suggested that such exports may be up to his discretion in italy if spain who has big problems is have these are countries with tremendous problems france if they ordered if they have long term orders and they're in there and they want to get certain things i've let them go out in certain instances because i think it's only fair there are fears that if the u.s. prevents exports of p.p.t. 2 latin american calendar front line workers will not have the protection that they

need to deal with the pandemic and that other countries may limit their exports of essential equipment to the u.s. perhaps the most startling announcement was that tens of millions of people in the u.s. without any medical coverage will have their bills directly paid by the government today i can so proudly announce that hospitals and health care providers treating uninsured corona virus patients will be reimbursed by the federal government despite raising hopes that he was brokering some sort of deal between saudi arabia and russia to reduce output and stabilize oil prices doldrum seem to be leaving the issue up to market forces they'll figure it out for free market will figure it would be a trumpet hosted several c.e.o.'s from u.s. energy companies but they were putin and said he would be willing to reduce oil output if it was in coordination with a reduction in u.s. output but from crum statements on friday it seems he got no such agreement several times the al-jazeera washington. france is rolling out emergency measures to help

distancing as his letter became public the sailors started being moved to shore but at a cost to the captain your commander or an aircraft carrier you're going to make admiral and the fact that he was willing to cooperate dives that well there are people who meet i just can't tell you how much i admired he's done alone over 100000 people have signed a petition to have him reinstated and even presidential candidate former vice president joe biden sent a tweet calling it poor judgment by the trump administration with what people and with this his crew said the message they agree with the article hang out to 0. being cold a camp for the day it is being prepared in ecuador as it struggles with one of the worst covert 19 outbreaks in latin america 145 a quote audience of died with 3000 also infections hospitals and morgues already at
