restrictions officials there have recorded more than 15000 deaths more than the rest of the region combined 230000 people are known to be infected but limits on testing are likely hiding the truth much larger figure at present diable sanaa is still downplaying the risks and pushing hard to reopen the economy while in chile one of latin america's other major pandemic hot spots surging infection numbers a feeling fair and racism particularly against haitians the modest migrant community in america it is henderson human starts our coverage from santiago. but mother they call them see dead is large properties subdivided into small quarters where one or more families live cramped together often sharing a bathroom with up to a dozen other families they're the only option for many haitian migrants in chile like the johnson affair you can see the kitchen doesn't work the bathroom too but it's difficult for us to run to and hi to my children each have their own room i

would never bring them here. to the history largest haitian migrant community outside of the united states and it's public knowledge that they're exploited by unscrupulous landlords and now with the coronavirus pandemic they're being discriminated further. oh. oh. oh a few weeks ago this day with $88.00 rooms became nationwide new health authorities moved the haitian residents to a special quarantine area with better facilities but 1st the results of their parole of virus test were published on the municipality's web page violating a patient's right to confidentiality the news spread like wildfire even before the cameras arrived the neighbors began throwing rocks and hurling insults at the haitians because a few of them had been confirmed to be carrying coronavirus now they tell us that they feel even more. screamin

a bit and vulnerable than ever. the fear of the virus has only increased the stigmatize ation of haitians since ralph gianbattista who works as a community translator they don't. have the community's very angry and upset if they'd been from europe from germany this would not have happened ralph is always dressed impeccably because he says it helps to counter the constant disrespect of blacks by chileans their reason for the very people say get out and blocky there is cruel discrimination here that we can't ignore. it's made worse because many haitian migrants don't speak spanish and don't know their rights and. with very precarious living conditions it's even more difficult for them to survive in a pandemic they charged rents which many can't afford the virus doesn't discriminate but we do. the governor of santiago's metropolitan region agrees that many migrants are living in inhumane conditions. but when we asked why authorities

haven't stopped landlords from renting unsanitary and overcrowded living quarters he blamed the matters on which. the truth is that authorities have constantly turned a blind eye to a sanitary and human rights dilemma that is punishing those who came here for a better life as never before you see in human al-jazeera sente al. that's a wrench and brazil's president has repeatedly downplayed the risks of covert 19 and he's pushing to reopen the economy many people including health workers feel they're being left on their own to battle the pandemic preg of the has more on that . is. a virus that makes grieving difficult for those who are infected and also it's little perspired put those claim to treat them this specialized hospital agree with our state is on the frontline

brazil's fight against the corner virus the country is the worst affected in latin america and the state has the 2nd highest number of deaths most hospitals are running out of blood and the intensive care units are good while what is today's big problem it's the law of supply and demand the number of doctors very low we're looking for more doctors to hire to run this hospital 100 percent this disease isn't kidding around whoever thinks it's a joke is going to lose their life people have to take precautions. this neighborhood is one of the poorest in sao paulo and the fires has taken many people's friends family members and neighbors the district of. some of the highest numbers of deaths in the city. clergy were trickiest lost his mother to the virus and his father is recovering in a field hospital he's spending his time distributing 3 meals put those who can't

afford to eat let me say. i have a mission to fulfill and i'm sure my mother is supporting me at this moment i'm sure she's looking at me wherever she is and saying go and play your part unleashing that seems critical in a place where social distancing i'm going in water seem like a luxury here to we have all these advice about social isolation wash your hands stay at home but at a price of milk. plus the richest ones. brazil has some of the highest number of reported deaths on infections in the world but experts say a lack of testing means there could be many more. brazil's health minister has stepped down after just weeks in the job the 2nd minister to go to the pub day began preston job also now has a post-war towns and wants to reopen the congress soon even though the disease that he's called a little sue is taking many lives and causing much hardship. al-jazeera

. is a latin american affairs analyst and journalist he joins us now on skype from london thanks for your time so i see these protests in support of president jaya also not on how much support does he actually have in brazil and why given the growing coronavirus numbers and death toll. yes a very good question kim. he still has around 30 percent of support and more on the brazilian electorate however an opinion poll published today by the paper of global which is part of the biggest media conglomerate in brasil suggests that 38 percent of people in brazil believe he's doing a very bad job again 30 percent who believe he's doing a moderate good job and 28 percent who believe that he's doing a very good job so this a big chunk of people have started to move towards a critical position to was mr also novels or what they believe is a couple years

a polish to the crisis as you mentioned in your introduction rightly he has dismissed the seriousness of the situation and the us wearing many many people as you said i get us through europe porter said there's some take there late is the latest health minister to resign from his cabinet the problem he has at the moment is that he has to fight in 2 from one is to call it 19 pandemic which as you said is the highest in latin america combine but all saw the front of corruption which is which means that he's being investigated and his son have been investigated for a legit cases of corruption and 30 motions of impeachment has been already filed in the brazilian congress so he has to fight in 2 fronts and he is trying to last he said reopen the economy and he has criticized many state governors brazil is a federal republic and state governments have a great deal of power he has criticized them for maintaining their shutdown of the

economy and the society and the social distancing so at the moment he's losing a little bit of popularity he still has some support but the more people died the more infections that happening in brazil and he's going really fast as your are you measuring your introduction the more he's going to touch support and that's going to be a problem for him because he might be getting closer to be impeached by a congress which is running. out of pike patients with depression who doesn't seem to be taking this. seriously or as he should ok so there's those 2 fronts and also as you and alluded to a bit of a situation within his own administration as you said one health minister has quit after less than a month on a job the proper previous one was sacked the head of the federal police has been removed the justice minister resigned i mean what's going on with the boss in our administration. that's a very very good summary of his troubled kim. more of the justice minister to

resign at the end in late april he was peace process or not he's close as i like he's the man who i suggest you put behind bars but a former president lula da silva he's a star of the right in brazil and the fact that he resign was a big blow for mr also narrow and he's statements after his resignation were very very harsh on relation also not of the head of the federal police but sacked because it was believed by mr morell the former justice minister that he was investigating cut laws for not of the son of president for creating all false news organization all until i'm a critic demonstration something that mr burleson not all and his son deny that is his left a whole within the bull's eye not an expression because x. is extremely popular he probably has political ambitions himself and he doesn't want to be linked to this government as he clearly said after he resigned he said i don't want to spoil my biography quote unquote by being linked to these incompetent

government took his study into sure that he has no all quality of leadership in brazil in terms of not only of the 19 but also the latest is that this all you know has been obtain when is a speedy ridden all you of a meeting of the cabinet when he just left right and center work that i couldn't possibly use here and he wants to prevent this from being so of you know published because in show that he's actually losing control of the situation he's losing his temper he has no plan and he has a cavalier attitude was caught with one thing and that is a big problem for him he's losing support within his own sort of supporters he has lost a major. former the former justice minister said camorra and he has just lost to health minister he's getting more and more i see. later as we speak and the military started to get it be dressed to the saudis nobody is going to be

a coup but this been some rumors in brazil that the military were starting to feel a bit uncomfortable because they would hardly deal with demonstrations and many in many ways the logistics of dealing with the coronavirus pandemic so he's getting his cues in big trouble and his attitude and his behavior in public shows and meanwhile the number of coronavirus cases continues to grow thank you for your time harvey if i head there a latin american affairs analyst. to israel where more than a year and a half all failed elections diplomatic deal making and political paralysis of come to an end a new coalition government has been sworn in it is the result of an agreement between longtime prime minister benjamin netanyahu and his political rival benny gantz it will take the country's leadership for a year and a half 3 elections had failed to determine a clear winner between the 2 men now back in power netanyahu reaffirmed his commitment to an exciting illegal jewish settlements in the occupied west bank.

it's time to apply israeli law and write a glorious chapter in the history of zionism the state doesn't delay peace it brings it closer because peace must be based on the truth and the truth is that there were hundreds of thousands of settlers in judea and smeary are brothers and sisters they will stay there as part of any permanent peace deal. gans had sworn never to work with netanyahu that's partly due to him being charged with corruption a case which starts in a week's time against al says he was forced to break that promise to deal with the coronavirus emergency. we decided to take national responsibility especially at this time israel needs a national government that represents broad sections of the country after more than 10 years the era of government by one half of the nation is over we are here to represent those who felt they had no voice in leading this country. so how a force that joins me now live for will from west to use them harry both leaders have said very derogatory things about each other in the past what messages were

they sending at the swearing in. well that the message they were trying to send was one of unity national responsibility both of them used those terms and the fact that israel has been hit by the grown a virus pandemic has responded to it but that in these circumstances of not just the health crisis but also the economic crisis the possibility of a 2nd wave there had to be an end to this continued political paralysis this longest political crisis in israeli history the worst political crisis benny gantz called it and to avert a 4th election and that was the message that they were sending gansey even went as far as criticizing his former opposition allies for not coming with him and recognizing the the moment and the call from the israeli voters there's

a very different message coming from the opposition pede said that the 2 men loathed each other that they had to a construct this very different unprecedented form of israeli governance with these this 2 headed system of prime minister an alternate prime minister of having this inflated number of ministries satisfying applicants for those jobs on both sides this 18 month handover period but you know 1st one going and you know then the other gantz all of this requiring a rewriting of israeli basic laws because of the distrust and the mutual loathing that they have for each other and he said that there's nothing worse than he could say about either man that they say about each other so there is some skepticism as to just how sunny the alliance really is and harry benjamin netanyahu reaffirmed his commitment to annex those every go do you a settlements in the occupied west bank i'm wondering is benny gantz on board with

that and does it matter. benny gantz isn't on board with that he's made it clear and did his have 2nd in command in his party who will be foreign minister in the coming government had truly been trailing various ways that they were planning to try to obstruct and. a unilateral an accession campaign not on total opposition to this plan but rather that it needed to be done in concert with other countries and that it should not be rushed into but in the negotiation for the coalition deal they gave away any prospect of a veto so as the deal stands netanyahu can press ahead and bring it to a vote in the israeli parliament the knesset and in time from july the 1st on but there are also 2 other qualifying things that are required under the terms of the deal one is that the united states has to be done in coordination with the u.s.

the other is that it shouldn't jeopardize important regional peace treaties and on both those fronts there is some doubt the u.s. seems to be signaling that it wants israel to slow down the king of jordan the other day so that it would cause massive conflict with israel so there is some question as to whether netanyahu can present had quite as quickly as he seems keen publicly to do thank you for that harry for the life from western most of them well ali abunimah is the co-founder of the electronic intifada he joins us now from chicago to talk more about all of this thank you for your time as you may have heard our correspondent there explaining benny gantz does not have veto power over the plans to advance the an extension of the occupied west bank in this coalition agreement are there any options left now for palestinians to fight this. well i mean it's not as if any israeli government would have presented the

palestinians with somehow a peaceful way out of. israeli occupation apartheid every israeli government has been implacably hostile to palestinian rights including this one which is headed by the 2 all of us of among many other things that 2014 assault on gaza during which israel killed one in every 1000 residents of the occupied gaza strip netanya was of course prime minister then and gantz was the army chief so these are 2 people who despite what have a personal animosity they have are in ideological lockstep in terms of. completing the colonize ation of the west bank and if they have any disagreements it's a very a mine that tactical disagreements about how not to upset the so-called international community too much but. they really don't have anything to worry about because

we've seen that the united states the european union many arab regimes including especially the gulf regimes a very much on board with this is ready government so as real doesn't think it has too much to worry about let's talk a little bit more about that are there any allies in the arab world that might be able to change things here i'm thinking the king of jordan is want israel of a massive conflict if it goes ahead with these antics nation. i mean i don't take these sorts of warnings whether from the king of jordan or whether from the european union which recently made noises about sanctions i don't take any of these things seriously because we've been hearing this sort of language for many many is the only thing that counts is action and what we see is jordan for example has this massive multi-billion dollar gas deal with israel so you know if

if jordan decides to cancel the gas deal we would see jordan as going beyond the words we see the european union talking about sanctions well let's see the european union cancel its sweet taught trade deals with israel cancel the massive grants and subsidies it gives to israel and cancel the permission for israeli settlements bill clinton told the post in the lead to export their goods to european supermarkets where they were mess of profits so when we see those kinds of actions then i think we can start to take them seriously but i'm afraid after all these many many decades words have absolutely no substance whatsoever. well have leave it there for time i'm afraid thank you for your time not only a co-founder of and of 25. and i've got to sounds political uncertainty has

come to an end with president musharraf gandhi signing a power sharing agreement with his rival chef gandhi and his main challenger abdullah abdullah had been locked in a stalemate haven't lost is disputed election until now a bill that will now lead the council of full peace talks to be busy on his table form parts of the cabinet. returning now to our coverage of the corona virus pandemic a new clusters of infections have emerged in china's northeastern province of julian 500 medical stuff have been sent to help with the fight after the epidemic risk level was raised from medium to high health officials in rwanda have ramped up their amount of testing in the past 24 hours checking over 200000 residents for coronavirus its goal is to test all of the city's 11000000 residents in just 2 weeks with almost a quarter of a 1000000 being tested on saturday also with the virus largely under control across

the country the rest of china is slowly reopening production is up and lock downs have eased with more schools and businesses reopening as well as more flights resuming on sunday and its vaccine development is moving forward with some drugs already in their 2nd phase of clinical trials chinese officials hope they could move on to why the testing by july circuit is monitoring developments from hong kong. some of the latest data we've got from the national health commission out of china we've got 5 new cases reported on sunday 2 of those cases are imported and 3 are from this province known as the jilin province this is an area where province the border is russia and north korea it's in the north east of china and the government there has reported that the total tally so far of about $144.00 cases and the mayor and city it's his now does describe this as a serious outbreak and as a result the government in the city and across the province have put in place a number of control measures and restrictions and some of that includes the city being put in past lockdown as schools have been closed across the province of also

got some of the residential compounds have been locked down as well gatherings both indoor and outdoor have been banned and the transport systems we're talking about the trains there's a long and short distance routes they've been partially stopped for now the governor is also it pushing for increased the screening of those residents in this particular area medical teams as you mentioned before about 500 medical staff have arrived in julian city to try and test and ramp up the procedures look at the people who not only get infected but the residents in that province to try and stem and curb the spread of the crime a virus outbreak and residents have also been advised not to leave the city but as we identify this particular class or the outbreak in the northeast of china we have got a lot of a huge part of china back to business as usual in the city of shanghai we've got some more classes in schools resuming this weight we've had the higher grades a regime class but now the lower grades are returning to class as well and we've

got some tourist attractions have also been reopened we're talking about the forbidden city in beijing as well as the disneyland resort in shanghai and as you mentioned earlier some of the flights returned to 60 percent of the pre outbreak level that's the mainland domestic travel routes so despite the outbreak you have got a large part of china returning to business as normal and when you look at the figures if you believe the official data being the. released by china we have got low numbers when you compare them to the likes of the united states and parts of europe . former u.s. president barack obama has again criticized his successes handling of the pandemic well they're not mentioning donald trump by name he told high school graduates during a speech that they should seize the initiative we're currently does have fumbled more than anything this pandemic is fully finally torn back the curtain on the idea that so many of the folks in charge know what they're doing a lot of them aren't even pretending to be in charge of the world's going to get

better it's going to be up to you. john hendren joins us now from chicago with more john the so he didn't name president trump by name but it was pretty clear who he was talking about. it was crystal clear jim the president the former president went on to say the doing what's convenient and doing well it's easy is what children do and he said and that is what a lot of people with fancy titles are doing right now and that's why in his words things are so screwed up it was very clear that that was a reference to the trump ministrations handling of the pandemic not least because barack obama recently spoke to a private group every courting of that was leaked out and he had described the trumpet ministrations response to depend demick as chaotic as absolutely and adequate and it's clear that what he was saying is telling students that they should do the right thing in those circumstances and making it clear that he thinks

the trump administration is not doing that and it's interesting that barack obama has been coming out recently to criticize his successor it's no accident that he's been doing this after he has endorsed joe biden it seems that for a long time he wasn't balding themself in the democratic race for the president he wasn't really getting involved with criticizing trump you know recent weeks and that is what you're hearing now i expect we can hear a little more a barrage of obama's criticism of this administration once president trump has had his own response and president has already taken to twitter to this morning what's he saying. that's right the president started out the morning with 2 tweets one saying he was doing a really good job on responding to the grown a virus which may have been response to what brought obama said and the other one was simply one word obama gave now that term he's been bandying about a lot without explaining what it means but it seems to be his suggestion that the

obama administration was trying to frame him with the investigation has been a lot of activity on that front you. generals' clinton. has twice pleaded guilty to being put into the vice president of the united states and now it may be cleared in this case but trump has been on this anti obama case for years it's not clear whether he's bowing to convert anybody doing this but for years he's always used obama and his criticism of obama to rally his base years ago saying that he wanted to do obama's birth certificate and actually forcing obama eventually to releases so he's gone back with red meat or his base right now and the target is clearly president i. think that john hendren a life from chicago. much more still to come credit. it's a very young workforce with very little experience and that's dangerous. u.s.

uncertainty has come to an end with the president and his rival signing a power sharing agreement ashraf ghani and his main challenger abdullah abdullah will share control of the government. grace to produce a vaccine is a global priority and will be discussed at a 2 day world health assembly beginning on monday as countries work around the clock the u.k.'s 1st of a $100000000.00 toward increasing its capacity to develop and mass produce vaccines were retellings joins me now live from london so rory tell us more about these plans to increase its investment in vaccines. yeah it's a big chunk of cash isn't it goes towards tracking the completion of this facility it's called the vaccines manufacturing. innovation complex and when it's finished it's supposed to be able to produce it and as little as 6

months as many vaccines in needed to cover the entire u.k. population it was supposed to be finished in the summer of 2022 that's being fast tracked 12 months to be finished next summer 2021 middle of the year now it's a big part i think of the government's ambitions of the u.k. rights at the forefront of the global drive to create research and develop a vaccine for corona virus the main problem at the moment is that as we you know there isn't a vaccine so. it's something that. these places like this vaccine center around and other places around the world are going to be working hard but boris johnson has pledged to get to get this sort of thing done but he's also acknowledged in an article the rights of the mail on sunday the british newspaper

today that such a thing may not actually happen we may never actually get to a vaccine so a bit of tempering of expectations there and how do you think all of this will help reassure. the public about the u.k. government strategy with all of this. well the signs are that. the support for the u.k. government is starting to wane a little bit the. poll that's just been released in the sunday observer another u.k. newspaper suggest the since last weekend support for the. as drops by 9 percentage points and that puts it now into negative territory i.e. there are more people thinking that the government is doing a bad job with its handling of the coronavirus epidemic than think they are doing a good job and i suppose it's not difficult to see why that might be the case in the in the last week you've had an accumulation i think of government missteps 1st

of all you've had the news that the u.k. is past 40000 deaths making it the worst affected country in europe you also have scandals. whether or not care homes are being adequately protected a large number of deaths are taking place in retirement homes with old people getting victim to these and in very bad numbers that's something the government has been accused of not picking up early enough you have the scandal over p.p.a. personal protective equipment whether there was enough of that testing whether there was enough of that and then there was the handling of the government's. messaging saying that now and we're not sending people to stay at home but we are telling people to stay alert now that confuse a lot of people and a big chunk of the population is trying to work out what indeed they should be doing indeed thank you for that turns there live from london. here in

a road it's been it's been a success for me and so i really hope that that continued sort of passion from my sport carries into medicine and i feel like i've got a big career to go and achieve hopefully more so than i ever did in sport well actually i never wanted to be an athlete so it was one of those thing the sort of fall into i guess my type personality was always going to be good towards something where you could really push yourself in and set really difficult goals and overcome challenges and as a child i always wanted to be a doctor to be on the front line to be helping people and it doesn't matter whether you know what you look like or what your your brain capacity is as long as you can help someone is a real benefit so sport for me was almost a distraction a very lovely one it was wonderful competing for australia it was a real honor to run in the great golfer my beautiful country but it's certainly far more rewarding now that i've come out the other end and graduated as a doctor. european football's governing body says it has a concrete plan to complete the champions league and its other competitions in august but you

ago now with a new social distance celebration. it was the 1st of 4 goals for dortmund as they thrashed their rivals. closing to within one point at the leaders by munich the players made sure they carried out their trademark post match salute to friends even if it was only in spirit normally $30000.00. but we knew that we we had the support at home from the fans but everybody misses the energy which is stadium hairs if it's sold out of it's a full grown this is what everybody misses worldwide around a 1000000000 people watched the 1st major european league to restart amid the pandemic these don't win fans gathered at one of the club bars and were happy to have something to cheer about. going to every match because the ocean if you are around with the right people it still works the mood is great in the sense of the numbers but it's nice to see football back again we can celebrate and be out for

a bit we are pleased. thank you no because you think if you asked me 61 minutes ago i would have said i'm not sure but now we are winning 3 nil i think it's awesome you guys are thinking spirits may have been high but this was still nowhere near normal for a match day in a country that still has hundreds of positive coronavirus cases every day. for good reason normally the bar would be tacked up but the feeling is different people are tense the usual feeling is missing this time or thirties had been worried about fans gathering outside stadiums on match days but indorsement and elsewhere on saturday they followed the rules and stayed away the shots he was on the other to go into who leaked probably the pleas by the city police to stay watch the match and whom could have worked with very pleased by this as it helps avoid infection 6 been this league games were played across germany on saturday and it's so far so good but the still 76 to go if they're to complete the season by the end of june it

remains to be seen if other european leagues will follow suit david stokes 0 let's just few hours until nascar becomes one of the 1st major sports to return from lock down in the u.s. we've already seen the ultimate fighting championship behind closed and a similar story for nascar the 1st race in 10 weeks will be held at the darlington raceway in south carolina with no spectators there's no warm up practice or qualifying either and even the national anthem will be performed virtually earlier we spoke to nascar reporter paul cross. i think nascar fans are excited to see actual race cars on a race track they wish they could be there but the local and state health officials aren't ready for mass gatherings and this is more treated like nascar's workplace they're screening everybody before they come in as far as a temperature check they're not doing any code in 1000 testing they don't feel they have the rapid tests they would need and quite frankly they say that they don't

want to take tests away from those who are sick so are they are doing temperature checks and if you have over 100 degree temperature if you're a member of the crew or driver then you'll be screened by medical personnel who will then determine if you can participate so i think everybody is excited about getting back to racing again for the teams and for the tracks and nascar as a whole they don't get paid the big t.v. money if they don't race and teams don't get paid the big sponsor money if they don't race so there is an urgency for them to get back to racing maybe more than other sports and they feel they can do it safely because the competitors aren't up against each other right there in cars they have fire retardant suits they're in helmets they feel they can do this in a safe manner the head of them to sadie's f one team says he's optimistic they will be back gracing in australia and july toto wolff says his team has been busy
