feeling the air on my face and i never thought i would miss school but i really do spain has the world's 3rd highest official coronavirus death toll but with the number of daily deaths fully the government's hoping to ease restrictions further from next weekend's new study. i would like to announce that if the evolution of the pandemic continues in a positive direction as it is doing so far actually starting from may 2nd and people will be allowed to go out to individual physical activity and walks with the people with whom they live however always in the conditions laid down by the health authorities and i thought. it was somebody city of seville the annual fair isn't happening but that hasn't stopped them celebrating with people dancing. traditional. balconies and generally enjoying the challenge. the city council may hold the event in september as part of the plan to recover the tourism industry. there right now there's

a cautious optimism in spain as people take stock of how when he leaves the course is has already taken. well the white house official coordinating the country's response to the cry on a virus outbreak says social distancing may be necessary that right through the summer deborah burke says the u.s. needs a huge technology breakthrough to expand testing before the country can reopen that state governors remain divided how these are castro reports despite clear warnings the virus continues to spread some americans have just had enough it's been 5 weeks and most people here would thousands of calls cannot get through to unemployment they don't know what they're going to do protesters gathered in downtown las vegas begging to return to jobs that shuttered casinos and entertainment venues along the city's famed district police arrested several beach goers in california who showed up to take in the sun despite prohibitions are you concerned the message from the

white house coronavirus response coordinator was the opposite we should still social distance we should still wear those mass to protect others as we work through this epidemic she warns social distancing should continue through the summer even as a handful of states allow barbershops and other businesses to reopen. but the vast majority of the country remains closed the white house economic adviser says the next jobs report will likely show unemployment at 16 percent or higher this is the biggest negative shock that are caught in the i think has ever seen we're going to be looking at an unemployment rate that approaches rates that we saw during the great depression the number of dead in the u.s. also continues to rise it's now more than 54000 with newspapers pain tribute to so many names and faces of the lost castro al jazeera silver spring maryland

well let's speak to bill schneider he is a political analyst and professor of policy government and international affairs at george mason university he joins us on skype now from washington d.c. bill this is clearly a critical time in terms of decision making in leadership in this pandemic but as we're seeing some states reopening and others trying to map the way forward i notice that president trump has chosen to absent himself from the white house briefing room after being at that podium for weeks. yes he's given over 50 news conferences he have a news conference on friday but he didn't take any questions and now one had to stay at his suggesting that he might be doing fewer news conferences they appear or decided these news conferences are not really doing him any good his home poll ratings are diminishing a bit he's fallen behind his democratic opponent joe biden in some critical states and the press has called him in a number of cases now i would counter that i've seen his heat 100000 since he took office and 18000 false or misleading statements and so they're prevailing is maybe

he should limit his exposure so and bill i know that the latest round of criticism has really been centered around these these suggestions that people inject really tenchi to try to say to help cure coronavirus i'm the leader of his crowd of us response team that we just had from dr deborah back sounded well in the last 24 hours like she was defending his comments what do you make of that. well she dare not the directly oppose the president shaking was lying or didn't know what he was talking about but the fact is you know what i'm talking about people scientists know and medical experts have been saying this is a very dangerous idea what the president did was suggest that people might want to try injecting more consuming disinfectant shore of household bleach as a way of eliminating the virus it's a totally ridiculous suggestion it's very dangerous he has a following and some of those people might actually try it he suggested in an

earlier news conference that people turn to these and he malarial drugs because they showed some promises a cure but they have not really developed deliver on that promise and a lot of people have been trying them and doctors have been prescribing them even though they have some very serious side effects that as you say his aides and some of his allies have reportedly been pressing him to stop doing these daily briefings now it seems the president is following their advice what finally pushed him over the edge. what what he said he said this in a tweet just yesterday he said that the briefings are quote not worth the time and effort because he's asked so many hostile questions about the press whom he has otherwise defined as an enemy of the people he's asked hostile questions by the press so therefore he said the press sense the agenda they ask the questions one of the thing is that his aides one him to focus more now on the recovery of the economy and less on public health issues where when he goes to

a news briefing these days it's asked a lot of questions about public health which he doesn't know much about he knows more about the economy and people who are secure about that so he wants to control the agenda more than the briefings have been able to allow so bill i do notice that in that same tweet he did talk about how his press briefings get record ratings and then he also accused the american people of getting nothing but fake news because of the media that coming back to that whole record ratings thing where is his approval rating now his approval rating is about where it's been for most of his ministration it's been in the mid to high 40 percent range he has never quite made 50 percent which is usually what you need to get reelected so he needs shown he's it has dropped into the low forty's it ranges between the low forty's in the high forty's that's a very narrow range and never seems to change very much because he has his supporters who are critics who are with him no matter what he has

a base he talks about them all the time a politician once said you have to have a base your base are the people who are with you when you're wrong when he has that but he also has a constituency of critics which is slightly larger than his base were never never willing to give him any support in won't ever do that and so those numbers are more or less fixed and the see if that balance changes over the course of the next few months bill schneider their political analyst and a professor at george mason university always good to have you on out there about. now the world health organization appears to have reversed its position on whether a recovered coronavirus patient will develop immunity to the illness on saturday the u.n. health agency said there was no evidence that someone would be protected from having a 2nd infection it's now clarified those comments saying most people will develop some level of protection although it's unclear to what degree and for how did all of china says there are no remaining coronavirus patients and hospitals in the city

procedure barri reports the internationally recognized government in yemen is calling it a coup after the southern transitional council announced it was in control of the port city of aden. the council accuses the government of being unable to cope with the coronavirus pandemic and failing to improve the lives of yemenis. so far there has been only one confirmed covert 19 infection in the southern region of how the remarked this is actually a pileup. mis management misgovernance in special insult yemen when asked why the s.t.c. is right now compelled to take to take action to their own ends while still calling for a cease fire calling for deescalation in all fronts we want things to go smoothly or things you want to be able to deliver a service is going to be able to battle this and them but the government warns the

breakaway attempt could have catastrophic consequences describing it as a resumption of an armed insurgency. it's yet another complicating factor in yemen's 5 year civil war which has been marked by shifting sometimes shadowy allegiances. the southern separatists are backed by the united arab emirates and have been nominal allies of the saudi emirate to coalition in their war against the whose these. was the government says the separatists action is a rejection of a power sharing deal brokered to end last year's unrest which saudi arabia hailed as a step towards a wider political solution to the war there are thought to be at least 25 regional separatist groups support on the ground is also in question critics say control should be taken by force but actions within yemen and it will not and will be but for the. regions or earlier and i think this is like premature

decision that doesn't. support in other areas of the i'm going to speculate. and other places so basically we're playing with fire at the moment and nothing. but. the southern transitional council says it continues to support the unilateral cease fire the cleric by saudi arabia 2 and a half weeks ago it has been just extended by a month but its declaration of autonomy and state of emergency adds to the uncertainty for yemenis who've already suffered years of hunger and war. dorsett jabari al jazeera. that the u.s. has extended a way there for iraq to import iranian gas and electricity despite american sanctions on tehran but this time it's been granted for just 30 days when it's usually extended for more than 90 washington is pressing iraq to form a lasting government and to move towards energy self-sufficiency iraq relies

heavily on iran to supply its power grid and spend trying to form a new government since december. watching television as a popular pastime during the muslim holy month of ramadan iraq is no exception it's one of the few customers relatively unaffected by the lock downs and post to tackle the coronavirus pandemic and that's raising the stakes for this is a local production of similar fault in reports from baghdad. even as public life in baghdad has largely come to a halt the cameras for this t.v. show never stopped rolling. actually. it was scheduled to air during the fasting month of ramadan a prime time for television across the arab world and so the director has found ways to overcome the covert 19 lockdown that even. considered around 90 percent of iraqi productions that response to air during ramadan were cancelled so there were no options the audiences would be bored was foreign in arabic content that they

were watching in the past we impose a sort of semi quarantine for the programming team we only film inside this house we don't mix with other people and we took preventative measures. the name of the satirical comedy is with. which translates a state of melons a local expression used to describe a chaotic situation it alludes to the lack of stability in post 2003 iraq the sketches tackle everyday issues such as corruption and the impact of conservative norms on society. stop sending messages you call me sister but then you seem to me to just past midnight recorded in iraqi dialect it has gained popularity over long established turkish and the gyptian series. we manage to use a language that appeals to all classes of iraqi society so the audience will see us as one of the family they'll say yes this old lady is like my mother or that character like my brother. t.v.

series has always been an integral part of ramadan but the crew hopes that this year their efforts will help lighten up evenings for people stuck at home the curtain has been lifted during the day but it remains in place in the evening which is when people usually gather to break their fast that means that many cherished ramadan traditions cannot be observed this year. we join one thermally at their home as they prepare for the 1st if a meal to break their daily fast delightful aroma swath through the kitchen and there is no shortage of mouth watering dishes spread on the table but mother of 3 and soon to give birth to a 4th son misses her extended family you know you don't want done it's rahm a dancer normally we should be at my grandfather's house but we can't go. later in the evening the men in the family would usually head out with their friends and relatives until late at night. ramadan is known for coffee shops and playing games

in public it's all about the gatherings and would usually go to a coffee shop to have shisha but this year i cannot do that as all the coffee shops are prohibited and closed and so watching t.v. is one of the few entertainment options left after their meal the family toons into lyotard but it's a rare occasion to smile and one of the few traditions that have not been appended but a coronavirus pandemic seem awful to al-jazeera but that. well one of the most anticipated sporting events in the u.s. has been held over video conference drawing a record audience the n.f.l. draft is usually a massive spectacle by teams recruit the best young talent on offer for the american football season and was to be held in las vegas this year but was canceled still and pulled an $8400000.00 viewers up to 1000000 on the previous record $255.00 players were drafted as expected with joe baro selected as the number one overall pick by the cincinnati bengals michael culson is

a sports broadcaster in the us he believes the virtual draft was a success in particular for 2 of the league's teams. it was very smooth a lot of people liked it because it concentrated more on the business and he got to see a few of the people involved in that business. of doing the draft a lot of the kind of hollywood glitz and red carpet stuff that they tried to do in the last few years most of missed by a lot of people of course because there is no broad press corps to speak of america or most of the world right now this was the biggest sporting event of the weekend and the big ones were i think more than double. the amount of all the baltimore ravens just chill was drafted they did it pretty much by sitting there and letting the draft come to them and then making great nicks with each pick they had so many teams trade up trade down try to get in the right place for a while we just got to have and the ravens just look at the board big year out who

was the best player at that time the other 2 might make it was really outstanding with the minnesota vikings who addressed their biggest needs wide receiver quarterback in the 1st row and were solid. after that and many balls did we beat. the worst teams were pretty easy to pick 2 both in the n.f.c. north and chicago bears while there there were stick in the 2nd round. which would be fine except we already had a titans of eros. hello again this is al jazeera and these are the headlines the daily death toll from the krajina virus in europe's hardest hit countries has fallen to its lowest level in more than a month and spain children have been allowed outside for the fast time and weeks and italy will also become easing restrictions we're going to niger but they're
