monday the white house doctor says no longer poses a risk of transmitting the virus but stopped short of saying if you tested negative the top u.s. infectious disease expert is accusing the all trumps reelection campaign of twisting his words on the coronavirus demick then trump tackled the virus head on his leadership. that anybody could do it. and today found she says the campaign ad had been edited to make it seem like he was indorsing the president's handling of the crisis or the complaint clip of his comments reveal that he was actually talking about his team he says in his 50 years of public service he's never publicly endorsed any political candidate gabriel alexander has more from washington d.c. . there's a whole host of problems here but it's left the whole thing is left a lot of uncertainty quite frankly primarily because it's now been nearly 24 hours

since we last received an update from president donald trump's doctor and even the last update to the late saturday night was very vague and left a lot of questions rather than answers for example has donald trump tested negative or not and those are simply questions we do not have answers to so given the vague information or lack of information from the doctors and giving no more information on on sunday it's left donald trump to tweet he's basically saying that he is fine that he can no longer get the virus he's claiming he's in you and that he can no longer give the virus to anyone as well now that's a very problematic or suspect statement and even twitter had to mark that tweet by the president of the united states is a tweet that in twitter's words is misleading and could lead to a negative consequences when it comes to corona virus so essentially there's still still quite a few questions that remain to be answered but so far it's been nearly 24 hours

since we've gotten any other update from the president's doctors and so it's left a lot of people to just assume that if he has not come out and proven that he's tested negative that he must still be positive for a president that certainly wants to give the impression at least that he's doing ok and that he's fine he's essentially telling the american people just trust me everything is ok. still ahead around is there are scientists in chile i believe they found a possible corona virus mutation in a remote region of the country. protests in belarus turned violent as police and demonstrators clashed in the capital.

declared he's free of covert 19 a week after testing positive. hong kong's leader has delayed her annual policy address until after she attends key government meetings in mainland china kerry lamb had been due to deliver the speech on wednesday it will now be held next month lamb says the territories economic recovery needs beijing support she insists the delay won't affect the government's work. the reason to delay the delivery of the passy address is because of the pandemic people wish to revive economic activity as well as protecting employment for the economy to revive we need the support of the mainland we have to better integrate into china's national development plan particularly in the greater bay area in search for economic growth stephan vines is a political commentator and author based in hong kong joins us via skype good to have you with us so 1st of all how unprecedented is this for the annual policy

address to be delayed. this is very unusual i mean remember the address which is equipment is one consequence of if you like the u.s. state of the nation address or britain's queen speech to parliament is the major political events of the calendar in hong kong and it was supposed to take place on wednesday it was crisp owned this morning in fact it was it was perspire and 2 and a half hours after it was announced that president xi shrinking will be visiting the neighboring town of shen said and it's in the way that the chinese leadership works that they only announce their visits very close to the time of arrival and people here are scratching their heads saying you know this is a major event why on earth does kerry lambs have to go to shende sent for a meeting that may or may not take place with president xi and people don't

understand her argument which is that she has to go to beijing to discuss with the leadership on the mainland hong kong's economic recovery policies because under the one country 2 systems under which uncle has governed economic affairs as post the fall entirely within the purview of the local administration so there's confusion and there is some feeling of disrespect to the legislature let me jump in there father let me let me present her argument is that well the hong kong territory does need the mainland support and she submitted proposals. do we know what these proposals are that she and what kind of support she's asking the mainland to provide. the simple answer to that question is no this is the 1st anybody's heard of these support proposals and again i mean it is very strange it's

not as though the policy address was a sort of sudden decision to hold it this is something that's been long in the calendar if indeed it was necessary to discuss these economic matters with the chinese leadership why on earth wasn't it done before some time before in fact she was due to present to the legislature her ideas for recovering the economy so we know nothing. how critical is it becoming for the economy in hong kong i mean we've had i just looked up some figures of unemployment at 15 years 15 year highs it seems several quarterly contractions lately yes i mean hong kong is in recession i know. the world is in recession so it's not so unusual but hong kong's economic circumstances appear to be much more dire than they are on the 'd chinese mainland itself unemployment is very high the cigars that you've been looking at don't think

loued part time employees which make up a large percentage of the workforce so in fact it's higher than the it's actual figures suggest and what is most worrying is that in a society where 20 percent of the population live below the poverty line people don't remember that hong kong has many poor people the effect of the coronavirus has been to push literally tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands further into poverty so it is a mixed stream me dire situation here at the moment all right and good to get your thoughts and analysis on that thanks so much to invite. millions of students in 12 countries across africa are heading back to class and schools reopen following along down that's lasted more than 6 months universities are also expected to open their doors despite the krona virus outbreak some lecturers a warning they won't go back to work unless they get a pay rise and it is live for us in nigeria's capital so how safe

a class is that now. when basically there's been some safety protocols put in place by the nigerian of course to ensure that students resume classes we've been to one school in the capital here earlier this morning and we saw students being admitted into the school compound with masks washing of hands and these safety protocols those without masks are turned back now the situation is such that the government said it has put in place these protocols and it would have the teeth to close it notices any upsurge in our virus uptick across nigeria especially in schools right now this morning the countries reporting 163 new cases which indicates that the virus outbreak or 'd the spread of the virus has sort of dipped

a little bit from the previous experience us now on the part of the students it's been some kind of excitement for them returning to school after 6 months and parents are happy that their wards are coming back to school although there are parents who are not convinced entirely that the school resumption process is safe they want to see government do more in terms of ensuring that the number of students plus it's limited to a certain number of slots to avoid the spread of this virus i mean what impact has the closure had on the education system there. know talking to school administrators you hear various various. opinions this blog down has cost 6 months of school closures across nigeria remember this is a country where you have more than 26000000 students in primary schools that is excluding borno state. has targeted many schools although there are some schools

that are being held in. internally displaced persons camps and you have more than 10000000 students in secondary schools universities have more than 2000000 of their own students although we hear that the university lecturers who have been on strike for for quite some time now saying that they're not resume me unless the government addresses some of their concerns which include paying their allowances revering the mood of operations and funding for education in nigeria talk to a school administrator a private school administrator like this particular school that we are here in abuja now they will tell you that lost a lot of revenue because of the school year teachers were not paid and the promise by the government to support them so as they can pay salaries for teachers and other stuff in their schools have not materialized so they are complaining a lot but for many students it's a very exciting time for them to return back to school to return back to class to meet their old friends and continue study parents a lot of them are happy but their children are getting their education and teachers

are also happy that this seeing their own students back and they are also happy that this salaries will be paid especially teachers in private institutions. that intrigues thanks so much. now scientists in chile are investigating a possible new station of the krona virus in the remote region of my gallus their area which sits the southern tip of the south american continent has seen an unusually high rate of infection in recent weeks our latin america and its alysia newman reports. named after the explorer magellan chile's mother younis region and its capital are known as the gateway to antartica a place so cold you need heating nearly year round scientists at the university of miami is investigating why remote region with only one percent of the population is veges string nearly 20 percent of the country's cases and probably 19 have

discovered a new strand of corona virus has taken over. all that mutation phenomenon happened everywhere in the world at the beginning of the pandemic simultaneously but this time it's restricted to new wave and to a particular geographic location this strand once existed in very small quantities elsewhere but for reasons still unclear it is expanded only in marianna to. the viruses and here inch protein is different but what that implies is still unclear. what is clear is that unlike the 1st wave in april since august infections in mat yanis have been steadily increasing despite a strict lockdown earlier this week the number of people infected another younis was the same as here in the capital except that now that is has been always population density in the country 170000 versus 8000000 here in santiago experts say there could be many reasons including the weather but they can't rule

out that the new strand of the virus is mainly to blame. the pan american health organization is assisting chilean scientists say in an effort to know more especially to confirm whether this new version of cold 19 is far more contagious than previous strands. if the hypothesis is validated it would obviously be worrisome because of the degree of the contagion we are seeing in my gut younus were to spread nationwide it would mean $25000.00 new cases per day and that is a dangerous scenario indeed. and while the scientific community attempts to determine the consequences of this mutation air force planes have started middle backing critical patients 3000 kilometers from our janish to the capital to ensure that hospitals will be able to cope with the unrelenting viral outbreak you see in human al-jazeera sente our. stance president has won more than 90 percent of the

vote in sunday's election victory extends the. 28 year rule by making him one of the world's longest serving leaders independent election monitors highlighted a lack of genuine political competition. government demonstrators in belarus are keeping the pressure on president alexander lukashenko to step down the protests in the capital for a 10th consecutive sunday despite the crackdown by police alexander b s reports. bleeding from tear gas and stun grenades similar scenes of chaos and panic across the capital scores of people detained in the most violent police crackdown seen in weeks several 1000 protesters dodge police who used water cannon and stun grenades tackled and beaten with batons by masked officers others seen injured and dazed on the ground. more than

13000 people have been detained in weeks of protests they say the presidential election in early august was rigged they're risking it all to demand president alexander lukashenko resignation people want change and yes of course the weather might strange things you know further as we approach the winter but at the moment i see still a lot of mobilization and the fact that a lot of opposition figures have been either detained or pushed out of the country hasn't significantly impacted the their mobilization on the ground people are still coming out to protest despite the fact that these protests and actively leaderless . and unexpected meeting held by lucas shankar with opposition activists in a prison led to many doubting the strength of his position state media says he discussed constitutional reform with his political rivals. you know half of you here are lawyers i'm perfectly understand that the constitution can't be written in

the streets and i'm trying to convince both your supporters and society at large that we must have a broader view towards these problems. but beyond those prison walls the deadlock continues. with military vehicles and armed police still dominating the streets and protesters vowing to continue until they see real democratic change alexandra buyers' al jazeera. take you through some of the headlines here on al-jazeera now there's been no letup in fighting over the disputed region of nagorno-karabakh however civilian areas have not been hit armenia says there's been new shelling along the southern part of the line of contact by jan says several military vehicles were destroyed for breaching the humanitarian ceasefire.
