a controversial new law. for policemen in the u.s. fired after the death of a black suspect as a backlash over a bystander's video of the arrest. now as latin america becomes the new global epicenter of the corona virus pandemic the world health organization has warned of surging infection numbers and brazil brazil peru and chile now brazil is by far the region's west affected country with more than 300000 confirmed cases that's the 2nd highest number in the wild the situation is so bad that the u.s. has imposed travel restrictions to anyone coming from that country that's just going to affect trees about reports. away from the sandy beaches of rio there's any we've got it. fabiano the gun that are 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 ok 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 through phone 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 damn you it 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 last increases the chances of catching covert 19. in the past few days human rights activists have to announce a change in the body removal protocols what once was a public service now depends on the relatives of the deceased. were you reach search 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 precedents who want to open up the economy the

fight has forced governors to clash with water. on tuesday the police raided the residence of rio's governor wilson reed cell who is being investigated for corruption in the handling of covert 1000 vets has said on twitter 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. while the brazilian state of south palo has the highest number of cases nationwide and the capital's hospitals are at near full capacity but speaking to my colleague earlier this state governor said a complete lockdown is not necessary. look down is a very hard position and we cannot use look down for this some polish state we have the protocol the protocol is ready but we are concerning and

taking care of that but not to analyse this moment we are asking the people in some ball to state and in this city of some ball of the cup though of the state to state home and use mosques is not necessary at this moment. to have good luck doll your state alone this week has registered more than 80000 cases confirmed and you've had more than 6000 deaths pollo is one of the worst hit regions in brazil why do you think that is well but we saved it until now 50000 lives using this so show. is all asian here in sao paulo state we decide what the medicine what this science to recommend to us not my decision is not a political decision is the science decision to science this is st right now is

the moment to have a look dow but these 2 have the quarantine we are inviting tina does want we will have a new current in in 5 days ahead for 2 weeks more well a new report has warning that venezuela is so poorly equipped to deal with the coronavirus it could make things worse for the whole region millions of venezuelans a fled the country in recent years as it deals with an economic crisis that has left many struggling for basic supplies human rights watch and johns hopkins university say it's a lack of capacity to deal with $1000.00 could western the situation at the border is. now on to some other news and u.s. president donald trump has run into trouble with his favored form of communication twitter has labeled 2 tweets on his official account as misleading for the 1st time and refers uses to a fact check page says the social media company is stifling free speech and

interfering with the presidential election later this year mike hanna is in washington d.c. with more on all of this twitter is now interfering in the 2020 election he says in a follow up tweety adds that twitter is eroding your slee saying that his claims about mail in voting are incorrect and he says styles that it is stifling free speech and he continues and as president i will not allow that so certainly a very strong attack on twitter which earlier in the day had put fact checking labels on 2 of his tweets dealing with mail in voting twitter described these as incorrect and put a lead into a reference to news reports on mail in voting pointing out that it is not as the president claims fraudulent so certainly this spat between president trump and the

forum of twitter is continuing to rage on well in a freeze it is the chief technology correspondent at the news website axios and says it's taken us a long time to act on these types of tweets. there are 2 areas where twitter has said specifically they would be more aggressive one of those is misinformation around the virus so we've seen them take action against the brazilian president over that and then also on election misinformation so this is one of the 2 areas where they said they'd be more aggressive that said they have never taken action in 3 and a half years of presidential tweets and there have been plenty that have been misleading this is the 1st time that they've waybill that so it's still a major moment i think there's been a lot of pressure but initially if you remember in 201617188 lot of the focus was on needed in authentic behavior so outside of the u.s. influences on elections so whether it was russia or china or whomever it was other countries using bots attempting to interfere the more recent issue has to do with

misinformation but intentional by individuals so it's not you know authentic behavior it's actually president term it's just that the information itself it's false and the platforms have been much less able to deal with this it's much easier for them to take a look at you know a 1000 bots that are repeating the same thing and saying ok that's definitely not allowed where it gets harder is when you have the actual president whether it's brazil's president tweeting misinformation 'd about the coronavirus or president trump tweeting false information about the election that is much harder. as a has not and now this terry is a controversial topic tweets described as vicious lions he's questioned whether t.v. show. away with mad at after the death of an antenna in his office 20 as a any swollen she had heart problems and scott brown was in another city. riot

police are in place around hong kong's legislative council as it prepares to debase a law that could see people jailed for disrespecting china's national anthem it comes as china prepares to push through a new security law for the territory well let's now go to edge in brown who is outside the legislative council there in hong kong edge and i see that given the boost to security since yesterday calls for protests last night didn't materialize and i know the council is already in session today and it's looking pretty quiet this. year it's very quiet now it's because of that big police operation that's been going on no actually for a couple of days the police are now ringing the legislative complex here in the center of hong kong and also behind me ringing the building hundreds of joint security barriers reinforcing the message that anyone taking part in an open illegal demonstration here today outside the parliament risks actually a jail term of up to 5 years now inside the chamber legislators have begun are due

to begin discussing sorry that you national anthem bill later today at the moment they're dealing with of the business now if this bill is passed and it's almost certain that it will be next week on june the 4th it means that anyone found guilty of disrespecting the national anthem that's the march of the volunteers would face a fine of up to 6 and a half $1000.00 or up to 3 years in jail now opponents say this is another restriction on hong kong and it's a restriction that's open to abuse by the police a.j. and i know we've been talking about how people in hong kong and just angry about this national anthem bill but also the proposed national security law being pushed through by beijing i see some details are now been leaked to the local media that what do you hearing. yes you're absolutely right i think china's leaders are much more concerned about getting that national security act passed

which is probably going to happen on thursday in beijing at the national people's congress but very few details about this bill has actually been divulged during the past few days it was 1st raised of course at the national people's congress last week but overnight local media here in hong kong have been releasing what they say is more information about this site they say that the scope of this act has been widened to include not just individuals but also organizations that means it's possible that human rights groups like amnesty international which has an office here in hong kong could well be the target of this new law once it isn't introduced now carol lam hong kong's chief executive has been continuing to deliver a robust defense of the security act saying that what's happening in hong kong is no different to what happens in many other countries every country she says has a national security law and she continues to insist that the rights and freedoms of

people here in hong kong will continue to be respected she says that this new law is only going to deal with a very narrow group of acts including subversion sedition and succession as well as terrorism so she continues to put out the message that hong kong has nothing to fear well president donald trump disagrees a few hours ago he said this new security act would be the death of hong kong as a financial center and as promised in his words there will be a very interesting response from the united states in the coming days that's referring to the fact that the united states is currently reviewing the special trading privileges that hong kong currently enjoys with the u.s. and those trading privileges could in fact become taled and we'll continue watching all of that very closely adrian brown there for us on the ground in hong kong thank you jane. well still ahead on al-jazeera russia tells libyan war logically for half
