departure tens of thousands of people from the city of woo han are on the move after 76 days holed up in their home when i wasn't here when i planned to go home during the chinese new year but because of the epidemic i didn't get to do so my family asks me every day when i come home the lockdown has been gradually lifted over the last 10 days with inbound travel allowed but no departures on wednesday all major highways were reopened so too was the city's airport at least 55000 people trying to kits to travel to other parts of china. i haven't been out since january 21st this is the 1st time i've left the house now i'm going back home to meet my parents checkpoints remain but for health scans those passengers carrying a green coat on a government health are considered low risk and can travel. we will have a follow up this infection of passengers at the entrance and exit on the railway

station with the temperature screening and the health code checking we are very strict 11000000 people live in the city known as a key industrial hub of china in december hospitals in we're had reported the 1st cases of the coronavirus with an increasing number of patients complaining of flu like symptoms in january the city was put in lockdown after it became clear that the flu like virus was highly contagious and potentially deadly residents were trapped so too will workers on the eve of the chinese new year holiday break including player who he works and lives in beijing but my out of france colleagues who were actually found one day cancelled a plane ticket last minute but i didn't because i. chose can i get. the full amount so i felt like. no green left out.

a nerd cove in 1000 person's location and depending on that proximity it will give you a card with 3 different colors a red code if you're high risk a yellow code if you are medium risk and green if you're at low risk or you're healthy and in you can travel so let me give you an idea of what that looks like so that's the out there and that's the cue walk or read that screen that's been generated there that makes makes it possible for you not only to travel within will hon but future also leave the city so all those people the 10s of thousands of people who have been leaving the city today they would have had to show that at the train stations at airports and indeed even if you go around the city for example you catch a taxi or you go into a restaurant you must present that code and at the restaurant or the taxi driver will then scan that and absorb all your details and what that does is makes sure that for example next week if you're found to have covert 19 there they can track your whereabouts and authorities can identify exactly who you came into contact

with and pull them aside perhaps for testing or quarantine period so definitely it's high tech used to fight this epidemic but people are raising concerns especially rights groups that the chinese government is using this epidemic to overreach and really extend their control. the chinese city on the russian border is under lockdown after a search of infections so i found half of the northwest saw 25 new cases all infected travelers crossing over from russia people have been ordered to remain at home with one person from each family allowed out every few days to by necessity. the world health organization is denying president donald trump's accusations that it is quote china centric and responding to his threat to cut funding the u.n. organization said the acute phase of a pandemic is not the right time for that trumps been blaming several people including his predecessors and the media as he faces increasing criticism of his

handling of the crisis the u.s. has recorded nearly 2000 deaths in the past 24 hours alone mike hanna reports from washington. after a series of critical tweets during the day president trump launched a verbal attack on the w.h.o. in the daily coronavirus briefing the president seemed particularly angered by the w h o's recommendation and early february that international travel should continue there's just days after he had imposed a ban on flights from china he also appeared to echo allegations that the organization rely too heavily on information from china during the initial phase of the outbreak. they called it wrong they call it. a really they missed a call they could have called it months earlier they would have known. they should have known and they probably didn't so we'll be looking into that very carefully and we're going to put a hold on money spent to the w h o we're going to put

a very powerful hold on it and we're going to see it's a great thing if it works but when they call every wrong it's no good the ban on flights from china was one of the recommendations of president's economic advisor made in a memorandum sent to the national security council at the end of february peter numbers are also warned that as many as 600000 americans could lose their lives. navarro sent a 2nd memorandum a month later and this time he included the president on the distribution list he said that between 2 and 3000000 americans could die he also specified the medical supplies the government would need to obtain to prepare this included a 1000000000 facemasks 11000 ventilators and 25000 respirators the memorandum was largely ignored president trump denies

he ever saw the documents yes sir history is too big but there is a president who just this president this today if you learned about the family today which is maybe a day. feeling. among your staff or your very own self told you and then there was a recommendation was a feeling that he had i think he told certain people in this but it didn't matter i didn't see it the president told reporters the contents of the documents would not have changed the way to use acted and then left the briefing after saying he would greet them later my kind of al-jazeera washington well jeremy kanya dyke is a public health expert who drafted guidelines for the u.s. government on how it should respond to a pandemic he says donald trump and his team have ignored the advice. what it contained was a sort of checklist a set of triggers to identify when a disease was posing a risk and when the united states government should begin triggering preparedness

and things like coronavirus novel coronavirus were specifically cited in there the risk of a respiratory virus with a fission human to human transmission and a significant significant fatality rate was specifically cited in there as a concern and then it listed a number of things that the country should begin to do work on diagnostic testing check the p.p. supply and make sure p.p. supply is sufficient to begin planning for mass casualty events in our hospital system you know all of that was in there all of that based on that playbook should have been triggered by the january on the january 30 date when the public health emergency of international concern was declared but that was disregarded and that's why i think it really isn't it really isn't quite right to blame the w.h.o. for our own lack of preparedness had they followed the playbook they would have begun kicking things into gear on january 30th instead what they did was they instituted these travel bans but didn't really focus on domestic preparedness and you know for all the criticism of w

h o's. dislike for those travel bans part of that comes from the fact that a travel ban sometimes an alibi allows you to escape doing other things so you know this administration talks up the travel ban but you know they were focused on that instead of focusing where they needed to be which was on domestic preparedness i'm not sure why the president has chosen to pick this fight right now he spent the last 2 months. praising w.h.o. and you know in general i think w.h.o. has been further ahead of the curve in understanding the risk of this than his own administration so i don't think they're the one to be blamed for the sluggish u.s. response. from an area down from the u.s. indicates black americans are more likely to die from the coronavirus highlighting the inequalities in health and access to medical care and example and has more. it's been said that the corona of the. iris doesn't discriminate with the rich famous and powerful among those who fall in l. but that doesn't tell the full story because some statistics suggest that if you

call from an ethnic minority you're more likely to get sick or even die 19 is killing black americans at a higher rate than anyone else. in the morning. yesterday. gary harrell has lost 10 friends or family members to the virus 8 were black one hispanic everyone knows someone. as. he lives in louisiana which along with the states of illinois and michigan has released preliminary data indicating a disproportionate number of african-american victims of the virus on monday more than 70 percent of fatalities in louisiana were black though they make up only a 3rd of the population there we've known literally forever that diseases like diabetes hypertension obesity and asthma are disproportionately afflicting the

minority populations particularly african-americans. people with those underlying conditions are usually more affected by the virus but analysts suggest black americans are also overrepresented because they are more likely to live in urban areas in cramped conditions and struggle to access quality health care the same trains have been reported in the united kingdom with black or asian patients more likely to be affected by the virus than white patients it's a tremendous challenge it's terrible and provide support to. african-american citizens of this country who are going through a lot but it's been disproportional gary says his community needs more than support it needs action the most prudent thing for us to do to honor the memory of those who've been lost is the prepares us next time said that we can i think there are

great peace the number of lives lost and definitely remain mindful that as we were prepared this time we've lost so many and we can't ever do it again. no doubt one of the many tough lessons to be learned from this pandemic and exam brian al-jazeera. of all my sense bring it on watch house correspondent can be held at his in washington d.c. ken lay is this something that's on the right domestically in the u.s. the facts that black americans odd disproportionately affect it. well it is now and i think in that report the last person that was speaking there is really kind of exactly what the problem is in the united states the tone deafness of privileged white americans when it comes to why this is happening it didn't just start because of this pandemic anyone who's lived in the united states i have for 20 years knows that what this pandemic has done essentially is exposed

and put really in the spotlight income disparity that has existed for decades you know centuries even in this country so the problem isn't you know people who are black or brown tend to have diabetes and heart disease that and all the rest they have a lack of access to jobs that pay the same amount as middle class white americans have access to they have a lack of education the best teachers don't go to those areas the best doctors don't go to those areas and that's why there is this pretty desk is ition for a myriad of health concerns in fact it's really notable that the u.s. surgeon general the one that you see on stage at the white house often in the in the uniform he's african-american he's standing alongside dr found she was white dr burk's who is white the president the vice president who are white but he admits he grew up poor and has many of these concerns he says that he's prediabetic that he

has heart disease this is the reality of growing up poor not just in the united states but around the world and so when that when you hear people talk about we need to prepare for the next pandemic preparedness needs to include addressing income inequality so that every american every person around the world has the same access to resources in the same shot taking care of their health and until that happens and i i'm speaking personally as a person or a reporter here in the united states i am almost out refused when i hear it until that's addressed i doubt anything is going to change. tell us what the picture is nationwide in terms of how the virus is spreading. thanks for letting me go. but it is really something that just gets kind of buried in the headlines and so i think it was important to highlight but in terms of where

we are right now we knew that this was going to be a deadly we cam and it's proving to be that in the united states they've recorded mortality rates that are breaking records not the kind of records you want to break right now in the united states approaching almost 400000 infections in terms of deaths almost 13000 dr burk's and one of the top public health officials in the united states says there are hopeful signs that there are places where the curve if you know as we often call it that peak in number for infections is being flattened but what they're worried about is with this bit of optimistic news that provides hope people then will start leaving their houses and there will be a 2nd wave so that's what we see county state's governors all around the united states trying to discourage right now they're doing a number of ways we see in new jersey drones are being used to make sure that there is maintaining of social distancing we even see police officer sharing the addresses of those who have tested positive in order to protect those 1st

responders if they have to go to a medical college one of those homes a lot of this is complex a lot of this is controversy will have to be sort of done in an after action later on but right now really every effort is being done to make sure that this is contained even as we know the infections are going to continue to rise in the coming days and weeks kimberly is really good to get your take thank you for your time that is white house correspondent. ethiopia's prime minister has declared a state of emergency to help curb the spread of the virus experts a war break could be hard to contain in a country where the health care system is already under strain. has reported around 50 confirmed cases so far and at least 2 deaths. well anderson is a seeing in ethiopia analyst at the international crisis group he joins us on skype from the sava thank you for your time. how much testing is actually being done in

ethiopia and is it assumed that the real number of cases may be much higher and thank you davison here yes not too much testing has been done but the government has steadily increased that accrediting a couple of other that are a choice to do so but it's certainly not a huge amount of testing that's going on and maybe that's partly why there's not that huge amounts of infections that's to say there is quite a lot of uncertainty about the extent to which the coronavirus may have spread so far in ethiopia but really it's a question of uncertainty we just don't know i explain to our viewers who may not be familiar with the country just what kind of a hub says i mean it is a transport hub isn't it yes that's right $78.00 going to lines is probably the most successful african airline at the moment place a huge number of destinations including something like 6 this nations in china and

the european airlines approach has been to keep flying and throughout this crisis apart from when it cannot certainly there's a lots of there's lots of traffic that's coming through this article which in the normal course of events is also something of a hub for political conferences in development conferences as well how myatt ethiopia's governance system impacts. the ability to to combat this pandemic i'm thinking about how much coordination there might be between the states. well that's potentially an issue here is a federation in the 70 an important political issues with him with a degree of regional autonomy and how they how some of those regions interact with the federal government so there is the potential for problems there but it does look like most actors any government actors and also the opposition as well as the ruling party everyone i think is going to be focused on tackling this pandemic

together and of course this imposition of the state of the emergency one of the things that it does is it gives the federal government more authority and the ability to work in coordination with regional governments including their security apparatuses looking sort of regionally is there any sense of coordination amongst african countries all regional bodies about how to control the pandemic and i mean i think it is being done to subdue to some extent on a state by state basis and of course the african c.d.c. is hugely active in helping out where it can working with other international organizations egads the regional bloc and in this parts of africa they have been donating money and collecting money to help with the cause but it is predominantly on a state by state basis and there is also that collective action from african states including african union to appeal to the international community for emergency support and things like debt relief to help african economies recover from this

situation really good to get your time and your take well davison there a saying ethiopia analyst at the international crisis group thank you. well i kept many other nations in africa who wonder is struggling to do enough daily test to counter the pandemic the number of infections is rising despite the government ordering a total lockdown almost 3 weeks ago catherine sawyer reports. rhonda's government has the coming of coronavirus reception to gianna lists for the 1st time it's a rare move on the outskirts of the capital kigali to publicize and reassure 12000000 london citizens that all is under control and to show the wild how the country is dealing with a pandemic stage of trying to size the outbreak in the country because we have our 1st this is already in country since the 14th of march 88 percent imported cases mean for the few cases that. call famine

by contact with. with those imported cases several patients are being more needed at this center for around 80 people and that a 2nd specialist hospital to health workers say none of the secret quiet intensive care but there are enough ventilators for those who may fall seriously ill round the has about 46 ventilators set aside for called it 1000 patients many african countries are struggling to keep up past health officials here say they can test up to 700 people a day. if we detect suspected cases we'll test them on a little test them every 3 days if they get sick we'll bring them to the center the government ordered a total shutdown in late march when the infection rate increased all buddhas and space have been closed to stop the disease being imported. and it's all hands on deck at this medical center as volunteers and government workers keep track of

who's quarantined in government facilities and at home we follow them up on a daily basis to see if they have any symptoms if they have developed any we refer them and connect them to our rapid response team for evacuation and taking them to different facilities for of course a follow up. many are wondering see their margins to response by their government has been swift and robots health workers say they're confident that they have the capacity to contain the disease but they're also concerned that eve neighboring countries failed to stem the spread and called it 1000 will be had to deal with because of the high number of illegal border crossings catherine al-jazeera britain's prime minister has spent a 2nd night in intensive care johnson was given supplementary oxygen cabinet ministers say he's in a stable condition and in good spirits overall the chalons joins us now live from london outside the hospital where boston is being treated rory i believe

a spokesman for ourselves and has given an update what's the latest on his condition. well the updates from downing street and other figures in the government's being pretty consistent over the last 24 hours at least going back to yesterday morning. the latest that we've heard from a downing street spokesperson doesn't really differ from the other updates we've been given over those hours he says that the prime minister is stable clinically stable was how he puts it the one new bit of information that we've been given a chance he is responding to treatments now we don't know at the moment what kind of treatments that the prime minister is receiving. than being put on oxygen we've been told that he hasn't been in chief. but it seems that. the promise the

situation doesn't seem to be getting any worse there is no indication that he's going to be leaving intensive care particularly soon. and rory doesn't rob us of course and childs for the time being at least in terms of the pandemic response do we have any idea when the peak of this outbreak is expected and perhaps what the next phase of the response might look like in the u.k. . well city con the london mayor was speaking this morning. said that it's the peak of coronavirus in the u.k. and i think he was talking also about london isn't expected. for a week and a hofmann he was saying that this was based on conversations that he been having with with health chiefs. and the government minister who was also talking earlier on today at. the health minister was saying look we've got to be

watching the data only when the data tells us that this peak has arrived and is then passing can we make any kind of policy decisions and this is where i think we're starting to see the gaps and the mixed messages. perhaps inherent in any situation where you have a prime minister seriously ill in hospital as he is at the moment. the. the acting man dominic rob was saying that the that the review period that is just about to come to an end on the government's lockdown policy. it was supposed to be coming up with at the beginning of next week. that dominic rob set is going to be shifted so that review to. take place on monday now the government spokesperson that the prime minister's spokesperson said when he came out and updated us on

boris johnson self that the review will be taking place i should jools without any change to the timeline so we are starting to see if you cracks appear in the kind of governments united front that review by law has to happen by april the 60 but i think you know whether or not it is happening it's clear to anyone who's looking at this in the moment that the u.k. is not coming out of lock time locked down next week and it probably will be in lockdown for some time to come thank you that update there on live from london. spain has announced more than 750 people have died in the past 24 hours with new infections also on the rise the number of fatalities has been increasing again and recent days spain is one of the worst affected countries in the world with more than 146000 confirmed cases a french military aircraft carrier has been instructed to return to port of the

a way out here's a look at some of the statistics from around the world the french government has offered to pay for hotel rooms for domestic violence victims after reports of abuse jumped by 36 percent since the lockdown began 2 women have been murdered it india saw abuse cases double in the 1st week of restrictions on movement nationwide that's according to the national commission for women. and australia internet searches for domestic violence support networks rose by 75 percent the national domestic abuse helpline in the u.k. has experienced a 25 percent increase in calls and online requests since a lockdown came in. and tunas he is women's affairs minister says abuse cases have gone up at 5 times the usual right since a curfew was imposed in march well the deodato is director of the training at men stopping violence he joins us on skype from atlanta georgia thank you for your time so we are talking now about violence primarily against women while under

lockdown how do you do your job engage with men to end violence against women during this time well 1st thank you for having me on this morning so our job has become a little more complicated now that we're all working virtually many of our programs our intervention programs with men who used abusive behavior are now transitioning is being conducted virtually in online classes as well as our general in gauge an effort so our mission of azadi violence is to engage communities and men to take action to end bias against women and so basically. we're now a virtual engagement organization but i guess it's going to be different difficult or perhaps a possible isn't to reach those households that are under lockdown that haven't engaged with anyone before it's going to be difficult to reach those people this is

quiet and i news will time with a global pandemic. absolutely you know there's there's a combination of dynamics right now that are increasing rates of domestic violence so we know that stress levels have gone up people are are financially strained people are losing their jobs and people's normal lives are being disrupted but we also know that when isolation when victims are isolated they have less risk recourse and so instances of violence go up. we also know that when there isn't a consequence for an abuser's use of violence then they can abuse with impunity you know and i think that is what is happening now. abused person is unable to. get out and call for help because the abuser is always there with them how dare you how how do we include the male perspective i mean when i saw we were speaking to

someone from men stopping violence and sort of raise my our eyebrows because i'm interested in and how do you think we include the male perspective and the male role when talking about violence against women without shifting the focus away from women's voices from women stories from women's experiences who are primarily the victims. well we have to acknowledge that if women are primarily the victim. is likely that men are primarily the perpetrators but most men are not perpetrators of violence but most men also are not taking responsibility for helping to end or reduce the occurrences of violence so our message to men is even if you're no one who's in gauged in abusive or controlling behavior you have a responsibility in your community to take action to speak up to confront men in your community who may be engaging in those behaviors one of the things that we're

offering currently is resources and help over the phone so that anyone who's using abuse can call us and we can help with with tools or options anyone who knows someone who is using abuse can call us and we can help them think about how they may intervene or have a conversation with that man so it's it is issue that primarily affects women but men have a huge role that they could be playing if if they were willing to step up and that's really the goal of our organization is helping men to do that thanks for your time their. training at many violence. and thank you for medical stuff in ecuador struggling to deal with the number of infections there are 2 thirds of the nearly 4000 cases are in the city of. the government says it's

wrapping up containment maces there. breaking news now coming into us from the u.k. england's death toll from the virus has risen by $828.00 in a single day the total now is $6483.00 the health service said 46 of the 828 patients were aged between 35 and 96 years old and some of them had well those 46 had no no an underlying health conditions. 2 other news now africa's largest oil exporter nigeria has announced its shutting down all of its refineries the state's choice says it's working to secure external funds to revamp its sites let's go live now to ahmed addressed who's in. these refineries have only been sporadically operational now they're being shot is this all down to oil prices or is there more at play here.

when basically like you said it there is more of play here. these refineries some of them are 34 decades old since they started this meant that not been not been producing at maximum capacity over the years and that a lot of people a lot of industry analysts think that some of the money is pumped into the turnaround maintenance of this refineries joining the military today military era and parts of the civilian administration era has been stolen by government officials however the good managing director of the nigerian national petroleum company said this time it's going to be around they have conducted a full or didn't they've known what what the problems are and they have sourced money to fund these programs now the question is. at what capacity will they be producing some of them like i said have been established 34 decades ago and then the population in nigeria was not much will they be able to satisfy domestic demand

and this this turnaround maintenance job is coming at a time when the blood this refinery in africa is suspected to come on stream it's being built by africa's richest man and he could i'm going to say it was supposed to start at the beginning of this year now we're hearing that the for the company may start production probably towards the end of this year or early next year now these companies these oil facilities owned by the government the 45 years on by the government are spread across the country 3 of them in the niger delta the oil producing region and one of them some 800 kilometers away from where the oil is being produced that is the kahuna refinery now it would be interesting to see how the government will ensure the supply of oil from the oil wells to these refineries especially the refinery because as we speak all been going i mean stealing of crude oil and siphoning of oil from oil pipelines government is still continue in this country so it will be interesting for many an idea as they will that what the group

managing director is talking about will come and pass successfully people will be a tool would welcome any development that will ease all production shortages in nigeria and it will also impact on government resources because this is a country that spends billions and billions of dollars to import refined petroleum products from outside of the idea that this is africa's largest producer it produces more than $2000000.00 barrels of oil per day yet it cannot refine that oil to satisfy its local demand and what he does import it subsidize the importation or the refining of petroleum products by importing them from outside of nigeria when it imports this products and we come to realize that some are with is being smuggled outside of nigeria to their brain countries there is a lot like thank you for that that's a bit interest lie from a bridge or. it has been a decade since kurdistan's president kurmanbek bakiyev was overthrown in
