changes and challenges, but the bob way faces today, despite going tension with egypt and sudan, ethiopia is set for the next phase of filling them on the blue nile. july on a just i me additional kind of 19 restrictions come into force on the indonesian islands of java and bali and neighboring malaysia, titan's cabs and true regions, including the capital of the delta ovarian spreads across se, asia ah, hello there, uninstalled the hey, this is out there, like from durham, also coming up the un wounds of a deteriorating situation and more than 400000 people are suffering from famine.
8:01 am
despite the government fund wildfires been across western canada off the days of record heat and also ahead fury in ukraine. official pictures of women soldiers practicing for a parade in high hill. while the delta variant of the current of virus is causing fresh outbreaks across the southeast asia and australia. indonesia has now imposed additional restrictions in the capital jakarta across the main island of java and the tourist hub of bali, the health system that has been stretched to the limit with make shift tents being set up outside pac medical facilities. meanwhile, malaysia is also tightening cubs and quarreling pool and some of the other surrounding areas. most factories that have been shots and residents cannot leave their homes after 8 pm. and thailand is reporting over 6200 new cases that setting
8:02 am
a record for bad, straight day. now, the number of patients and i see years and on ventilators has risen nationwide. over the past 2 weeks. jessica washington has worn out from indonesia capital. i mean, the dakota city center and the city is uncharacteristically quiet, as these restrictions take effect. and they will be in place until at least the 20th of july. but authorities warned that they may be extended if the situation does not improve to some of these restrictions include 100 percent work from home policy for non essential sectors. the closure of move, restaurant galleries and other public sites, as well as road closures and limits on who can travel. passengers now have to show a vaccination card before they can travel domestically. and the reason that these restrictions were really became a necessity is because of the strain on the hospital. particularly here in the
8:03 am
capital jakarta, we know that some hospitals are already at 100 percent capacity, and others are edging close to that. and doctors say that they have been forced into the terrible position of having to turn away sick patients because they are undisturbed. such strange. you may have seen some of the refill scenes that we've seen in the capital, but across java, people desperately lining up for oxygen for their relative. not because there's an oxygen shortage at this point, but because they weren't able to get the sick, loved ones into hospital and they've been forced to sort of d, i y treatment at home. so the hope here in indonesia is that these restrictions may help with lowering transmission and may help ease the burden that doctors and nurses are experiencing at the moment. and now florence louis has more from quite a long full on those additional restrictions and parts of malaysia. some of these hightail restrictions include only one person from each household being allowed out,
8:04 am
and ridden only attend to them at a radius of the home for necessities. people not being allowed out of their homes after 8 pm, except for emergencies or with police approval factories that produce non essential items. have 2 shots. and this is because many workplace clusters have come from factory. now the lockdown has generated anger to say those that have successfully managed to implement safety protocols, such as regular testing are being punished collectively with aaron's business owners. and people say also that this type her lockdown, the restriction, will create even more hardship. and the number of suicide cases has gone up, but the malaysians have rallied together, urging people who need assistance to raise a wife like outside their home as a signal that they need help, whether it's food or money. now that has been a nationwide locked down already for more than a month. not only that malaysia has been in a state of emergency since january,
8:05 am
yet we're not seeing the number of cases coming down. now much of that, it's also because there's the delta variance of the corona virus, but there is a political dimension to this as well. there is not a renewed push for parliament to reconvene. it's been suspended since the declaration of emergency in january and this renewed push is coming not just from the king but also opposite, but also politicians from both sides of the divide. well that's numbering an arch cannon's. he's a professor of infectious diseases at carson university and joins us now from perth, in western australia. professor, i really felt like se asia had things under control for a while there. what happens? well, i think southeast asia was probably fairly lucky early on a course also southeast asia as a breaches the well, that's fair use to lodge in these outbreaks. really the epicenter, the well, the new emerging, an infection for the public health systems are very well developed in the region of the world. but yet the comics then i think there was some luck. and now of course,
8:06 am
the lot sort of, you know, and with the emergence of the delta strain, things are really taking off the whole region. i think he's really struggling at the moment. well, we're looking at now all these increased restrictions, but they've been around for a while. malaysia, for instance, has been in this state of emergency is flow. we're saying that since january multiple movement control orders in place. so while the lockdown is actually working well, things in the lecture, i think, really started taking you off a couple of months ago. there is some, a suggestion that might be widespread. maybe the people following taste might have contributed to the spreading of these barriers. you really, i think it comes down to the level of compliance would love to have the ability for authorities to scale up tests and tries operations. and i'm like big we're good. if you can't do that in the midst of a lockdown, it's very difficult for the lockdown itself to take effect. so it will speaking in
8:07 am
terms of compliance. so many of these countries will say, really, tyson the border controls i see. but these new variance are still getting in how is not happening. it's very difficult to came out. if people continue to travel in and you know, well the boat is, are totally controlled. people do still need to come in and now you say the situation in australia where we have very thought border control with, with a hostile warranty system. but even with strongest by security measures in place, occasionally things like out into the community. and then if you don't have a really good system in place for containment tests and try and installation that they can get away fairly quickly. but the other big dimension, of course, in the region is that vaccine coverage is still very large ranging from, you know, less than one percent in vietnam, complete coverage, right? up to 70 percent in countries like the leisure and, and you know,
8:08 am
that's just not high enough at the moment to really have an impact on transmission . so i wanted to ask you more about the vaccines because things seem to be going. so what at the beginning, was there a sense of complacency, perhaps when it came to vaccine rollout, and now countries of paying for i think it's largely due to issues of supply supply has been delayed in our region. particularly if you look at a strike of the reason why coverage of vaccine. so back things in these countries. so low is because we, we really put any eggs in one basket with us or that early on. and then when the recording disorder became apparent, we then shifted our strategy to the next thing. and we will like coming to the party. and therefore, supply hasn't been secured until fairly late in the face of the countries in the region have been receiving back thing from more diverse sources, including, including china, certainly indonesia, early on with getting lots of that thing from china. every countries in different,
8:09 am
different positions in the region at the moment. and obviously they're all concerned about the efficacy of the chinese vaccines for the new variance that you mentioned, the movements of people around ede. we saw the searches and infections after ramadan and indonesia and thailand after phone crime the time you yeah. all governments and citizens right now taking this seriously enough. will it be difficult thing to answer? i think the, the answer that question really is local. so, you know, i think people are taking things seriously, but you've got to recognize a course that people's livelihoods are disrupted. social activities is disrupted, that's really hard. that's really difficult for people to, to manage. and, you know, i think governments are trying hard. i think, you know, there are lots of lessons to be learned around clear and consistent messaging around social cohesion, social bye into social societies, coming together to,
8:10 am
to try and get on top of things. but it is very difficult. i think everyone has to understand the professor infectious diseases at cussing university. great radio volts and algebra. thank you so much for joining us professor home. meanwhile, india is official death toll from the corona virus has now passed 400100000 people has died in the past 39 days with 853 deaths recorded onion on friday. that excellence believe the number of dead could actually be as high as 1000000 with a possible 3rd wave of infections redeeming as a so called delta plus varying managers as well. the government has announced a campaign to vaccinate almost a 1000000000 people by the end of the year. still, though russia president, that person is refusing to impose a national lock down there. despite the country's code, the 1900 desk told, reaching a new hi, 679 deaths were reported on friday. that's the most in a single day. since this pandemic began. despite the rise in cases the euro 2020
8:11 am
quarter final went ahead and st. petersburg, this later search is also being blamed on the delta variance. brazilian prosecutors is now open to corruption investigation into president liable for neuro. he's accused of failing to act against the theme involving the national corona virus vaccination campaign. prosecutors say a deal to buy indian vaccines was a front for embezzling millions of dollars. both scenario was allegedly warned about that, but did nothing. all of this comes as brazil's daily death rate remains high, the country is just reported. and now that 1857 curve deaths and moving on respect to truth or risk, a devastating conflict spiraling further into crisis. that's the wanting from the united nations to ethiopia, government, and to grind rebel fighters and says, 400000 people are now suffering famine. while another 1800000 up ought to be facing starvation and war began 8 months ago and has displaced millions. if your government declared sci fi this week right before the a major bridge and peak,
