10:05 am
nonetheless hopeful that it will be a transition to a saner approach to what this virus is all about the white house doctor has confirmed the president received one dose of an experimental drug regeneration it has not been through final clinical trials and was administered on what is called a compassionate use basis this is the only way a drug and not approved by the f.d.a. can be administered to a patient who is not part of a clinical trial my kind of al-jazeera but those don't well doctors i hear shar is a primary care doctor in arizona he told my colleague in rank on war about the treatment that the president is receiving. he has now been given all the experimental relatively experimental treatments. i find that concerning because
10:06 am
i think trying to understand the severity of what's going on with the president you have to sort of read tea leaves because they're not being forthcoming with giving us real details regarding his condition when he developed the symptoms necessary the symptoms but we're hearing things like he's not having some difficulty with breathing which is a very concerning quite fast to cater in the progression of posted and he's already been given 2 treatments that ordinary citizens don't typically receive although the reading disappear is of able now. to be used for specialized situations is there another experimental drug that they might try if this one doesn't look at these 2 in fact i was. well despite being the leader of the free world and arguably one of the most powerful men on the planet. this is a disease for which the options are limited we know that in patients who become more significantly ill end up in the i.c.u.
10:07 am
sense setting that dexamethasone which is a steroid has been shown to reduce morbidity and mortality i don't think he's yet a candidate or get some medical soame but in between there's not a lot that you can do other than supportive care of vitamin d. has some clinical utility both as a preventative and as a therapeutic agent but. you know 8 out of 10 americans who die from this particular virus who die from cope at 19 or over the age of 60 and so you know it's not to say that the death rate is 80 percent that's not what i'm claiming but of the $200000.00 plus who've died in america thus far 80 percent of them were over the age of 60 so we know that age plays a critical role in the severity of the infection and mr trump our president is 74 years old he also has an additional risk factor that i'm aware of which is his morbid obesity and the 2 couple together make the likelihood of the progression of
10:08 am
the underlying infection greater that's the great concern and despite his power and influence he has already utilized the 2 therapies that are cutting edge in fact that personally received today would not be available hardly to anyone else it is entirely still in clinical trials and so it's remarkable but for the fact that he's the president of the united states i don't think he would have been eligible for that there are 3 of the democratic presidential candidate meanwhile joe biden has decided to remove all negative ads about chummed he said that the president's infection is a reminder of how serious the pandemic is. like you stuart knology which our hero you do as well so you my prayers for the health and safety of the 1st lady president. after they tested positive for kuwait 90. i worry that you and i prove that you will make a quick and full recovery this is not a matter of politics it's
10:09 am

10:15 am
azerbaijan and the self-governing armenian enclave of nagorno-karabakh is the most serious confrontation since a ceasefire ended a war in 1904 that killed nearly 30000 military personnel. these rockets landed just short of art school and you can see the extent of the devastation there this is right in the center of. this town not far from the front line between azerbaijan and armenia has been hit regularly since sunday by as air force. what i like that's my larger of the or i'm lucky my head didn't blow off russ make background tells us. you know hit him and shattered his shop and home as he sat down for lunch ross make is a veteran of the 1st war here which broke out when armenian majority karabakh broke away from azerbaijan during the breakup of the soviet union. your bottom line we
