8:23 pm
almost like a royal family. and that sense, i think, comes from the fact that they were in charge when the 30th war came to an end. and they feel that they are the saviors of the country for era and other analysts say the roger box, a government took out big loans for giant infrastructure projects. after the countries civil war ended and cut taxes, the president has admitted failure. anti corruption activists also allege billions of dollars may have been made for me legal deals in recent years. we log a form in a case where we are more than 500 miles, all lined the court, but not going to happen. some cases saw here in it's not her in some cases are going but pharma her came back by the by the comes or no c id because evidence won't be enough. in some technical matters. the large boxes changed the

predictions that heavy rains could continue. well into the weekend, all of which could make rescue operations like these more complicated france, germany, belgium, and australia are among the latest countries to detect the cases of monkey pox. they join others like britain were known, infections doubled from 9 to 20. on friday. the virus rarely seen outside western central africa has not spread so quickly. the harding reports monkeys able to transmit monkey parks to humans, causing fever, aches, and general lesions. but the virus passing from person to person has been rare, especially outside of west africa. until now, that may seem to be more cases and more people who are incubating the disease in west africa who traveling. so there's more opportunity for to see into into european countries. another discovery is who is being infected. all known patients
8:27 pm
are male and say they're gay. or bisexual, the risk factor here has been men having sex with man. and so that's sort of close contact. that makes sense because the way this is spread is through both respiratory droplets with close, very close proximity face to face respiratory droplets, but also direct contact with the lesions that have virus in them. the smallpox vaccine was phased out in the 1980 s, but it also protected against monkey pox. and some scientists say the winding down of these vaccination campaigns has led to this jump. in monkey pox cases, there's no need to panic. this is not going to spread and get into the general population and cause an epidemic clank corona virus as well. scientists say it's relatively difficult for this virus to spread governments and at least 5 countries are trying to figure out just how monkey pot made it to their shores. leo

8:29 pm
infection, whether they've traveled overseas. if arrived from a country that's where this virus is more dominant or predominant, or whether they've been in contact with somebody else who may have had this condition. so i think this is the kind of epidemiologic work that is going on now to try to identify, you know, what are the risk factors? what are the factors that tell us how this individual individuals got infected with this rather unusual virus? a new face is fronting north careers fight against its probate 19 outbreak where you, young child is appearing on television day the in reporting, the latest figures. it says stand at more than $2000000.00 infections. is announcements are similar to those of america's infectious diseases. experts, doctor, and we found she, at least known about you, including his medical qualifications outside experts, say there's still plenty of doubt surrounding the size of that north korea's
