a mind numbing figure yet we must never lose sight of each and every individual life there were fathers and mothers wives and husbands brothers and sisters friends and colleagues the pain those mean multiplied by the 7 minutes of these disease research the infection kept families from bedsides and the process of mourning and celebrating a life was over made impossible or as we've outlined the u.s. strains the worst affected nation i did show cancer has more from silver spring in maryland. these $1000000.00 plus deaths worldwide we know that at least one in 5 more deaths due to cold but here in the united states the u.s. total death toll still far surpassing that of any other country in the world how public health officials here are also concerned now that although things seem to be under control to an extent they're fearful of a 2nd wave and they're looking particularly at places like new york city which saw

a catastrophic losses of life in april then seeming to contain the virus successfully only to have new hotspots there blaring out in these days that we're experiencing now president trump though saying that this nation is turning a corner on the pandemic he hosted a rose garden event at the white house today in which she announced the distribution of $150000000.00 rapid coded diagnostic tests they would produce results you say he says within 15 minutes 50000000 are going toward vulnerable communities including nursing homes the remaining 100000000 to states and territories to be given out in schools and in work settings. well those drop of test kits to come with the tradeoff being less sensitive and more likely to return false negatives but they are being welcomed this is not the deep brain biopsy that

we talk about this will generally done by a health care provider but it can be done supervised it's easy 123-451-2345. into the test twisted 3 times. the adhesive is pulled off and you wait 15 minutes and that is the test it really could not be easier than this this is a very sophisticated little piece of cardboard with lots of antibodies and incredible technology into the. well in brazil the pandemic has killed more than 140000 people and infections across deaths across latin america are continuing to rise daniel shriner reports now from one aside is. there is no one reason why the covered 1000 virus should have been particularly virulent in latin america different governments have tackled it in different ways. some like argentina in peru imposing strict lockdowns you see what you tend of i keep insisting that we'll

get back to one point of g.d.p. that we lost what we want get back other lives lost. others like brazil or mexico but being criticized for claiming too soon that the coronavirus has been defeated. in this is decreasing slowly but we have not reports of all the brics which is good in yours in the context of the serious problem. the numbers however keep rising more than 800000 infected in colombia and peru 700000 in argentina 76000 dead in mexico and effective vaccine can't come a moment too soon this virus will continue to spread and people will continue to get sick even as a bad scene is the who are out there we can work out of war are vast. as is the key is very often in public have their uncles in the blues. among

the hardest hit have been health workers indigenous communities and those already living in vulnerable situations in the state. but if i was laid off work and the situation got really hard because i live with my 3 children and take care of them all by myself there are days when we have to skip a meal because things are hard. no one is immune the presidents of brazil bolivia honduras and guatemala all tested positive for the virus they all recovered. the pandemic has battered already fragile. economies and protests have grown across the region demanding an easing of lockdown measures and the return to work. it's good for the economy so that people have the opportunity to keep their businesses up and running because that's important but it doesn't mean we're out of danger i mean the pandemic it's becoming clear that the pandemic has highlighted in exacerbated many of the systemic problems that exist in the cross latin america previously the lack of investment in health and education inequality and corruption many for now is

simply battling for survival against the virus and the problems it brought with it . one osiris all from latin america to asian i mean this been a surge in infections in myanmar doubling its total in just the past week and that's producing concern in they bring thailand's scott highly reports now from the time border the northernmost stretch of thailand's border with me in mar is a natural one the mountain range while the landscape might be beautiful it makes it difficult for thai army patrols to search for migrants crossing illegally with concern growing over myanmar's increase in covert 1000 cases those patrols have grown bigger and more frequent this says the number of migrants attempting to cross has surged over the last several weeks thailand has been much more successful in controlling covert 19 and has better health care the thai border areas are on high

alert many of the crossings take place at night making it easier to avoid being caught but also increasing the danger. one of those migrants who risked their night crossing a mother of 2 in thailand illegally were hiding her face and used to sort of a cot it was on the thai side of the border but in may she sneaked back into myanmar to see her mother before she died she returned to her house a few weeks ago it's been tense with her time neighbors since. she says they treat her like a disease and informed local authorities that she returned home warm when everybody is scared of it but it was absolutely necessary for us to come back i was prepared to notify the local health fallen tears and the head of the village. it was along this stretch of the siregar that serves as the border that and her daughter snuck back into thailand because of months to no rains it was swollen and fast moving her daughter had to ride on the shoulders of someone who was crossing at the same time

it's not just anne's neighborhood one group that works with migrants is also seeing cases of locals alerting authorities about people who've crossed illegally from i mean if they come into the community at illegally crossing people see them they will notify immigration they don't care there's only a trickle of cargo passing through the usually bustling may side border post since the rapid spread in myanmar more precautions have been put in place at the official crossing we coordinate with the department of disease control to intensify the checking of cockle vehicles and it drives us but as the situation worsens in myanmar people seeking safety in better health care will continue to take the risk and cross over any way they can scott holler al-jazeera may side thailand south korea meanwhile remains an example of success by it isn't so and explains why the numbers there have remained low. i don't think there's any secret remedy they

tended to do what most other countries have done but they took it from the very start very seriously and did it in a very timely fashion in some respects south korea maybe already had a had a head start and advantage in that it's been through an experience of pandemics before it was a badly affected by sars in 2003 again from china and also by mers from the middle east much later so it already has in place a very good public health systems for detecting dealing with outbreaks and pandemics in fact they do a twice annual exercise a simulation run but by all of these public health officials in the last one was done just last december so they're already looking around with the system in place but also working very closely with with private companies there are a lot of large corporations here and very early on the government got together with those companies and said ok we're going in the tests we're going to need a lot of them we can guarantee we will buy all of these tests off you they fast

tracked the system to put in place so they set out from the very beginning a very good tracing and tracking system which is really kept the numbers very low we had a large outbreak in february in daegu down in the southeast of the country and we've had a small outbreaks since then but you have a lot of public cooperation the government says wear masks everyone wears masks the economy has never actually closed down people talk about lock downs and there have been certain restrictions on some companies here in south korea but basically the economy has kept going. now kenya has begun to relax in some of its covert 1000 restrictions following a decline in the number of new cases but a nationwide curfew is still being extended as markham web reports from nairobi. president hu kenyatta has announced a relaxation of some of the rules that have been place to try and prevent the

spread of covert 19 the nighttime curfew will now begin if the 11 o'clock in the evening instead of 9 bars are allowed to reopen religious gatherings are allowed to have some more people they can use one 3rd of the available seating in their venue's but schools are to remain closed president kenyatta said this followed decrease in the number of new cases kenya's registered less than 40000 cases of cope with 19 in less than 700 deaths many people don't trust the government's data and also these figures are based on a low rate of testing compared to what's been done in some other countries and continents but nonetheless there haven't been signs of a major health crisis here many kenyans are impatient to get back to work and get back to life as normal the president said that still people should be prepared for the possibility of a 2nd wave that as of now there's no sign of that happening. still to come on the
