a long time. hello and welcome i'm peter w. watching al-jazeera life mark lobel headquarters here and also coming up testers return to the streets of mali demanding the president resigns over the dire economy and for failing to defeat. spain's former king juan carlos n n c's he's moving abroad as investigations continue into allegations of corruption . the top story the u.s. president donald trump has publicly rebuked a 2nd member of the white house coronavirus task force he's accused to deborah burke's of hurting his administration after she said that the high number of infections through. been and rural america represented

a new phase in the pandemic. made those remarks after the democratic house speaker nancy pelosi said she'd lost confidence in mr trump tweeted that dr brooks had taken the bait speaking just a short time ago the president refused to be drawn on many questions about dr books but he did insist they do have a good working relationship. i think we're doing very well i told dr burke said think we're doing very well she was in my office a little while ago should person have a lot of respect for i think nancy pelosi is treated her very badly very very badly very nasty and i'm just referring to the fact that i thought that really they should say the job we've done whether it's on ventilators or testing we've tested now over 60000000 people no other countries even close to that we've tested 60000000 people with great in many cases about 50 percent now rapid fire burning 5

to 15 to 20 minute tests where you get the result almost immediately nobody has anything like that nobody and they were just doing very well. live now to our correspondent following that story for us that this hoffa reynolds joins us from los angeles so rob did we get mr trump's interpretation not so much about what dr brooks actually said but how she should have said it. that is certainly one good interpretation possible interpretation peter i mean there's no. nothing new really about the president attacking the top medical experts that he's supposed to be receiving advice from just a couple of weeks ago the white house with named an unnamed officials wanted a kind of full frontal attack on dr anthony fauci because she had questioned the wisdom of reopening the country fully saying that that would cause a new spike in

a coronavirus case is asked about today at the press conference trump repeated several times that he disagreed with with dr as far as dr burk's as you mentioned she said in an interview that the coronavirus pandemic had become extraordinarily widespread in the united states and trump interpreted that as an attack he fired back on twitter calling burks pathetic and saying that she was in effect manipulated by the into a hit on us which one would interpret as a political hit on him and his administration so really anyone no matter how medically eminent to disagrees with the president's extremely optimistic thinking and talking up the good sides of the situation such as they might be falls out of

favor and is subject to criticism while on the underhand other hand very highly unusual doctor from the state of texas was praised by trump and to reach we did because she does believe in the efficacy of hydroxy clora when the controversy malaria drugs turns out she also believes that people get medical problems from having sex with demons in their sleep. so it's an unusual situation to say the least. also touched on why u.s. politicians aren't moving on how best to support those people who are now so close to financial ruin because you know in theory the extra add on money that they get from the government having lost their jobs or having been furloughed has just about to run out slash it has run out. right it is it no longer exists so the $30000000.00 people approximately who have lost

their jobs due to the coronavirus and demick up till now just recently they had been receiving $600.00 a week in federal funds a kind of economic lifeline for them but as that money ran out it came time to pass new legislation the democratic house wanted to continue the $600.00 per week stipend the republicans said that that's much too generous so they wanted to cut it to $200.00 per week there's also disagreement over of the democrats want to just support states and local governments cities with a trillion dollar appropriation president in his press conference the recent just earlier today said that that would be a bailout for poorly run democratic democratic run states and cities and front has also been talking about now executive orders to extend that unemployment benefit to to the unemployed and to prevent

or set up a moratorium to prevent people who can't pay their rent from being evicted from their houses but so far that's been talk and it hasn't really been translated into reality get a rope we'll leave it there good to talk to thank you very much rob runnels our correspondent in l.a. . with several countries racing to develop it 1000 banks in the world health organization is downplaying expectations its head today said it may never be a silver bullet that eradicates the virus in the testing and containment efforts to still best defense the u.k. meanwhile has just announced tests that can provide a result within 1000 minutes is in london. the technology is fast moving from next week testing for corona virus in the u.k. will be easier than ever less invasive with no need for a health professional to administer them 5800000 on the spot test will be using

d.n.a. alongside $450000.00 swap samples and rather than the current $1.00 to $2.00 day wait the results are known within an hour and a half we can expand testing capacity further and into settings where for instance in schools we have currently we have survey testing so we have some testing that would be able to be expanded but also looking at looking across the community where we want to test people who don't have symptoms to find out where the virus is the testing system itself is complex and reliant on multiple supply chains to source the products but it's hoped that it could open up a new phase in mass testing across the country these tests could signify a game changing moment not only will they be able to be carried out by practically anyone but they can also detect seasonal flu meanwhile those behind the testing say

that controls are being put in place so as they can avoid any false negatives britain had come under severe criticism at the start of the pandemic the government was blamed for being too slow to go into lockdown to lax and testing and had failed to get a successful track and trace system up and running and despite promising leads in its bid to find a vaccine recent regional surges in the u.k. and the rest of europe are warning that the pandemic is nowhere near over the reason or silver bullet at the moment and then might never be for now stopping out bricks comes down to the basics of probably coal and this is going through him. testing isolating and treating patients and tracing and quarantining their contacts the message more or less the same as it was at the start of the pandemic the basic prevention measures are as crucial as ever
