rio we've. gotten that out are trying to locate covert patients in they've 1115. they have just recovered from 1000 themselves and are now working on their day off to help those in need. hospitals are full most cases were not serious so this way we could help them to going to people where to go with visiting people and also to see their problems in their homes small houses with not a lot of airflow we could give an overall guidance on care and cleaning. as the amount of cases of coal with 1000 continues to rise in brazil these doctors believe that early detection is crucial to saving lives. that's why they have turned this somber school into a temporary office story coming to film these people have been historically abandoned by society and politicians they have no access to public health care

a cannot afford medicines that is why we are here. people like that the end of the sources say they have been abandoned by the government than you and makes you scared very scared there are a lot of people who believe the virus is a lie from the politicians but it's not a lie we know what we're talking about my neighbor had it and recovered i have other friends infected a friend died it's very sad. the demographic density in the favelas increases the chances of catching covert 19. in the past few days human rights activists have denounced a change in the body removal protocols what once was a public service now depends on the relatives of the deceased where you reach such after 27 hours a body was removed from this house it is absurd what the state is doing with people who do not even have a chance to bury their dead. it's all happening as brazil is caught in a political crisis that has polarized the country between those who believe the way

out is by imposing a lockdown and those like president who want to open up the economy the fight has forced governors to clash with water nat'l on tuesday the police raided the residence of rio's governor wilson read cell who is being investigated for corruption in the handling of covert 1000 vets has said on twitter also not all is using the federal police to attack him. caught in the middle of the dispute are the victims of brazil's political system which is failing to protect those who are in need of help the most. and in the last hour i spoke to the govern ourselves paolo state joe dooryard started by asking him how he isn't forcing virus restrictions despite his differences with president. we are in different position here in some polo we we have a social he's

a lation we are 2 months and a half in a social his relation and asking people to stay home and use mosques that still all to use mosques and now so asking people to stay at home but unfortunately the position of presidents both on audio is completely different is asking to get people to go to the streets. making very bad example leaving us in brazil that without a mask and asking people to use chloroquine so we are very concerned about that is not just my road but also we have other 26 governors in brazil all these recalled mandamus so show us all asian against the position of the president of brazil is a very sad moment to us because we have to come back to to virus the coronavirus

and unfortunately the bo'sun out of virus so does this not all really complicate the fight against the virus if there isn't a coordinated government program and you don't have the support of the president's became more difficult you're right of course could be much better if we could have in brazil just one way the right way to protect lives to save lives and to follow their health the world health organization as we are doing here in st paul unfortunately that's not the position of president of brazil and how is this filtering to people on the ground because as you're saying and the president himself is urging people to go to work some state governors including yourself yourself are telling people not to go to work so clearly there's a conflicting message. yes conflicting messages in very sad and difficult moment that we are fighting against here in some paulo brazil but

fortunately here the population of some polish state we have here 46000000 people living here in some paulo almost 55 percent of the people are following their rights. and they are you staying at home using mosques following the orientation of the right orientation of the state government but then for a cli when they watch television at night they see the president of brazil without a mask asking people to go to the streets asking people to go to war. in opposition of their correct orientation that is stay home and protect themselves and protect lives ok you know just as you were saying you've imposed strict isolation rules and quarantines in your state but you've

stopped sorts of calling for a full lockdown what is the thinking behind that and should brazilians in sao paulo expect a full lockdown in the days or weeks ahead. it's not necessary at this moment look down is a very hard position and we cannot use look down for this some polish state we have the protocol the proper call is ready but we are concerning and taking care of that but not to announce this moment we are still asking the people in some polish state and in this city of some all of the cop though of the state to stay home and use mosques is not necessary at this moment. to have a lockdown but i have no reason just for a moment apologies but your state alone this week has registered more than 80000 cases confirmed and you've had more than 6000 deaths out pollo is one of the worst

hit regions in brazil why do you think that is well but we saved until now 50000 lives using this so show. is all asian here in some states we decide what the medicine what this science to recommend to us not my decision is not a political decision is the science decision it is science this is saying to us right now is not that moment to have lucked out but they still have their current team and we are inviting taina this moment we will have a new current in in 5 days a hat for to explore. so among those worst hit by lightening america's worsening coronavirus outbreak are venezuelans who fled the economic and political breakdown in their country since $2145000000.00 people have left that's nearly as many as the total displaced from syria at the height of the war there and they were

escaping from a lack of basic supplies and just food and medicine under president nicolas maduro who is no longer recognized as a legitimate leader by some countries several which have imposed crippling sanctions most refugees were welcomed by neighbors with peru and colombia taking the most but the pandemic has put a serious strain on resources and many are desperate to go back home and now at a video conference led by the european union and the u.n. more than 60 countries have pledged 3400000000 dollars in emergency aid to help them we have given an example of solidarity with those who were marching in the tunnel of forgetful we have. 2544000000 in contributions from participants merely 600000000 in donations is fain has contributed 50000000 which will be dispersed over the next 3

years with an initial disbursement of 20000000 this year our line america editor in the c.n.n. reports from chile's capital on how the pandemic is making life worse for migrants in many host countries. john shows us where he's been camped for weeks with his wife in sydney in the little daughter outside of the colombian consulate in santiago along with dozens of other families they pass the time and the cold as best they can waiting for help from the government settlement that will break. this is precarious the way our politicians count on us for votes we need now to count on them to bring us home. but if not far away peruvian migrants testart temperature before allowing us in to see their open air camp outside crews consulate they too want help to return home because the pandemic has left them jobless and destitute much of freedom it's freezing there are no bathrooms we sleep

on cots cement but by far the largest number of foreigners who have lost their livelihoods other than this whalen's who make of chile's newest and largest migrant community. for 2 months hundreds of men women and children have been living like this outside of the consulate. in the pandemic starting president nicolas maduro sent airplanes to repatriate those who wanted to leak but now the doors of the consulate are shocked by what we have and what. we have nothing left anymore we're living from charity and getting desperate and not to be from our government we're on documented and we can't ask chile for help. the u.n. special representative for venezuelan migrants and refugees system of government is laying out conditions for people to return one is a quarantine period at the border and the other is more of a long low lying. more. of the investigation.

what would be the true motivation for that richard that you believe is slowing down the number of people that they're allowing back in yes but yes. every day more people arrive at the camp trying to find comfort in numbers around the corner the venezuelans are beginning to be tested now for coronavirus either way a group of them we understand will be placed in quarantine so that they will be ready if and when venezuela's government sends an airplane to get them but the real question is what will happen to them once they get all. they tell us they know that the economic insanity situation in venezuela is worse than in chile the to argue that if they have to die of coronavirus or hunger they'd rather it be in their country of birth close to their families and not in a faraway stranger that. you see in human al jazeera santiago.

one el salvador more than 30 prison inmates have tested positive for a coronavirus rights groups already criticized the country's prison system for its harsh conditions now the government says it's implementing stricter health and isolation protocols to prevent the virus spreading any further el salvador has reported around 2000 confirmed cases on $35.00 deaths as fears grow that the corona virus is spreading almost unchecked in war torn yemen the u.n. is warning that its aid efforts are close to breaking points even before the virus struck around 80 percent of the population relied on humanitarian assistance now the u.n. refugee agency says desperate families are turning to begging child labor and under age marriage to try to survive it's calling for international donors to provide urgent funding to meet the demand for shelter food and health care. we are reaching a potential breaking point in our programs where if we don't receive the funding

soon many of our programs and particularly our houses just. to internally displaced young and human use may have stopped and that could have been a pox on. some 1000000 people who many of whom rely on these programs to meet the most basic me including shelter from food and medicines they're watching the news hour live from london coming up. back on the floor a trader has returned to new york stock exchange for the 1st time since mid march and pressure continues to mount on the u.k. prime minister boris johnson to sack his top advisor for defying government lockdown rules. but 1st over the united states the pandemic has now killed more than 98000 people

the by far the worst affected nation in the world the country seen 1600000 confirmed coronavirus cases the u.s. government is clamping down on travel from the 2nd worst hit country that's brazil any foreigners who have been there in the previous 14 days will now be denied entry let's bring in carol lee health that she's our white house correspondent so as the u.s. approaches this tragic milestone of 800000 deaths kimberly what is the white house saying about it. yeah well the u.s. president for his part had been pretty quiet hour up until the last hour or so he had been very vocal on twitter but not about this grim milestone he was criticized in fact for playing golf over the weekend but in just the last hour or so speaking from the rose garden the u.s. president essentially defended his coronavirus response saying that the deaths would have been 10 to 25 times higher if he didn't act swiftly and earlier the

press secretary kaley mcenaney defending the u.s. president's response saying that he is a number in terms of that 100000 mark that he takes very seriously that it at one time was even estimated to be as high as 2000000 potential deaths that's why the u.s. president shot or close the economy but it is worth noting that as we approach this 100000 mark in terms of deaths that at one point the u.s. president also estimated it would be no more than $60000.00 right ok so he's been quiet on this milestone but meanwhile he has been mocking joe biden for wearing a mask and he's also been making accusations against a political foe which is prompted calls for twitter to take action what's not about . yeah essentially the u.s. president has been mocking the presumptive democratic presidential nominee that he's to face off * in november against for a 2nd term of the white house if donald trump were to win he's been mocking joe

biden for wearing a mask will of course the u.s. president in many of the memorial day festivities that occurred in the last 24 hours or so did not wear a mask many people say that he wasn't leading by example on twitter but what's really tracking some attention on twitter is also this accusation the u.s. president has made against a political foe essentially accusing him of a felony he has accuser intimated that perhaps joe scarborough former republican congressman now an m.-s. n.b.c. anchor that he may have been responsible for the death of a intern or rather a congressional staffer that worked in his office back in 2001 now we should point out the police have ruled this death accidental but the president on twitter has multiple cases intimated that this may be a suspicious death now this is understandably upset the widower of this victim he wrote an open letter to twitter begging them to shut down the president's account or at least delete these tweets twitter has responded saying it will not do that

but it certainly is notable that the president is so fixated on this one particular day their death rather in order to slander a political foe when he's got this enormous and grim milestone that he is presiding over those 100000 deaths in the united states from cope at 19 all right kimberly thank you very much so the coronavirus has battered the u.s. economy but it had a much needed moral boost earlier with the reopening of the new york stock exchange like the rest of the country though reopening did not mean it was business as usual . reports. a sign of the times a past governor of new york arrives for the reopening of the stock exchange trading floor nearly 2 months after coronavirus shut it down for the 1st time in its more than 100 year history thanks andrew cuomo rang the opening bell to cheers

from traders also wearing masks only a quarter had been allowed back the rest continue to work remotely making for a sparsely populated and unusually sedate trading floor traders were forbidden from using public transport to get to work and also needed to take a temperature test upon entering the building i feel very safe and very careful coming back into this building the measures that they put in place prior to the n.y.s.e. closing and continuing through today is something that certainly reassuring they were also required to sign a waiver promising not to sue should they catch coronavirus while that work a necessary move according to the stock exchange president most of the people that work down here on the trading floor are not employees of the new york stock exchange so we need to make sure that they are committed to following all those protection productive measures that we put in place in the waiver is really focused primarily on that as a governor left he seemed upbeat in pleased even as the rest of new york city

remains mostly closed trading on the new york stock exchange did not stop over the last 2 months as the majority of buying and selling is done electronically however the reopening is significant symbolism as the american economy inches towards reopening. al-jazeera new york. the french president's a man who has announced an $8800000000.00 investment fund to support his country's auto industry the sector employees hundreds of thousands of people in france with roughly 30 vehicle and parts factories around the country micro says autonomous and electric cars will be the focus off of the coronavirus crisis he wants france to become europe's leading producer of clean cards that hasa butler and paris has more . well over the past few weeks the french government is known to series of rescue plans for various economic sectors in france we've had tourism culture business and

now the car industry the french president to mount says the car industry is in crisis mode just because of the current virus pandemic but also because it faces the challenge of transitioning to a more ecologically friendly physicals. announced a series of a multi-billion dollar measures to try and revive the industry he said that people customers would be given financial incentives to buy electric or hybrid calls and billions of dollars will be spent on car makers production lines to make them more modern and to favor electric vehicles the french president wants to make france a leader when it comes to clean the calls is that they don't interest you to the next phase of the car industry is a world of electric motors the next phase is driverless calls countrymen's becomes incarnation of the technology where marco made it very clear that this kind of government aid doesn't come without any strings attached he has also french

carmakers to give a certain amount of guarantees and commitments he's looking that car makers treat their supplies more thoroughly that they focus on building more electric vehicles in the they keep as much production as possible in france rather than moving it to low cost countries in particular when it comes to high tech research says that when it comes to the car industry he wants a lot more made in france so could the current virus crisis lead to other examples of more environmentally friendly practices in the future well let's ask him she's a climate campaigner and the co-director of the green new deal u.k. organization thanks for a time with us on the al-jazeera news hour so you must be pleased with the announcements by mike hall in your opinion how significant is it. i think it's significant and i'm sure there's a huge structural change that happening right now a lot of conversation about economic recovery is being linked to greening our

economy and making us resilient for the crisis what's really in about what macro has sad is this idea of there not being a no straight because there are not be no strings attached you know in 2008 we saw our government sort of bail out banks and several industries with no strings attached and they went back to businesses as normal what's different this time is making sure that there's a public state in these bailouts and making sure that these industries are working towards the public good and most importantly reducing their carbon emissions and coming in line with what is necessary to happen to make sure that we have wait for the crisis the biggest of which is staring us in the face as the primary merge and so and so how likely is it then this crisis could lead to more environmentally friendly practices in the future. i think it's already happening it's happening on 2 fronts one is individually we're all reassessing what is necessary for us to do what is good for me is how we're going to live differently how we're chap

cherishing our surroundings and our and nature of that as a whole on the 2nd front i think there are governments and leaders at all levels of government discussing how we come back from this how do we build back better and just earlier this month you saw mayors around the world come together to discuss this and now it's thousands of miles of new bike lanes white mane of p. meant making our community centered around walking and cycling and job creation programs making sure that we're pretty people back into work in ways that are helping us reduce our carbon emission rate so you don't think that those possibly could be sort of a need jerk reactions on the risk is that once this crisis is over then it could be a return to business as usual with governments just concerned with shoring up their economies at the expense of the environment as it's been in the past. it's definitely a risk and that's the thing i think we all need to be aware of is that it struck me that short termism trumps the idea of us thinking about long term recovery but 2

things one public the public is on the side of leaders who are thinking about long term recovery and how we have with the climate crisis kind of just still one of the primary concerns of the public in most countries the 2nd thing is this is a great opportunity there's never been a better opportunity to think long term and think how do we build back better now that we're an opportunity to reshape our economy rethink how our kind of me works what do we center do we send to fossil fuel industries and histories that are just polluting our environment where do we work with communities to make sure that we have a greener fairer society on the other end of this and i think there's a real opportunity here i've lost there is a risk i do think you know the tide is there and our direction really we'll leave it there thoughts about writing thank you very much for speaking to us from london still to come on the al-jazeera news hour it's usually a time for
