this is the statement as it is really doesn't come as a surprise, even as the u. n. and turkey were trying to broker this deal earlier this week. as the state department spokesperson, net price made note of the fact that all of the responsibility for the success of this deal would lie at the feet of moscow. and the suggestion from the state department at the time was not optimistic, but certainly of any thing is better than what had been happening, which is the grain not being moved at all. the won't house organization is to create the monkey pokes outbreak a global health emergency in the u. s. there's a shortage of test kits and vaccines since our deserves will bernal's report. in san francisco, people waited in line to get vaccinated for monkey pox. a virus that is spreading so rapidly, the world health organization has now declared it a global health emergency. we have an outbreak that has spread around the wood

rapidly through new mode itself, transmission about which we understand truly to and which meets the criteria in the international health regulations. there have been about 3000 cases in the u. s. so far and many more in europe and dozens of other countries including india, russia, and brazil. mat ford battled the virus for more than 3 weeks. it was excruciating at times you know, m, i had intense flu like symptoms, so eager chills, sore throat cause wanting to rush at night. and then you know, that tells how skin regions which i had from the get go. but more of them appeared around me, infection and towards the end, i town a more than $25.00 all over my body and they just appeared everywhere. women and children in the us have clot, monkey pox, but the us centers for disease control says 99 percent of the cases are seen among gay and bisexual men. the disease is spread by close skin, the skin body,

contact muggy box vaccine, and testing kits are in short supply frustrating health experts. i think we kind of stumbled out of the blocks in a few ways, one of which is testing. i don't think there was enough testing available early enough. and then the 2nd thing is with the vaccines, we have vaccines available there, approve have em purchase. they are in a national stock pile and it's been getting them out of the stockpile. it's been really challenging and that's currently where the bottleneck is right now. the white house says the government has distributed 300000 doses of monkey pox vaccine and is tried to speed up the shipment of about 800000 more doses from denmark where they are manufactured. but that may be too little, too late. rob reynolds alger z for los angeles, a global health emergency is the w h, shows highest alert level for an outbreak. the world body can issue guidance for governments to prevent the virus spreading, but it can't force them to take specific action. like implement vaccine mandates.

rather than it's not as severe as one would think. however, the critical weakness of the data is that is often lags reality, that the virus may be ahead of the data. so it's in my judgement that dr. caterers is airing on the side of taking pro action to mobilize governments and mobilize civil society. it's not only a medical response, it's a political response, and that is what is needed at all countries at all community levels in order to truncate the epidemic at the bud. so monkey pox can be very dangerous, particularly to pregnant women and her, she, the, at their developing fetus. it can be very dangerous to the immunocompromised and in certain circumstances it can cause brain and spinal cord infection and even blindness. farmers in indonesia of dealing with an outbreak of foot and mouth disease for the 1st time in almost 40 years. more than 410000 cases have been

people are actually trying to stay indoors if they can, and those that are coming out or coming out to places like this, where it's a bit breeze you and they can, you know, enjoy some the water and things like that. but you know, it's really the health work is that you've got to feel sorry for they are wrapped up in blair's of plastic really are these hazmat suits. and so there are lots of reports of many of them suffering from heat stroke. and there are video circulating social media of some vomiting and some of them fainting as result of him to work in these conditions. been, you know, some of the real eyeopening videos that we're seeing our of people taking off their suits and pouring out the sweat that sort of built up inside their hazmat suits. and that, you know, is really quite a sight to see. we've got flash floods among slides in sin, jang, we've got a drought in agricultural areas as more heat waves of predicted hours. the government dealing with all of this was suddenly local governments are having to

keep a close eye on this. there are more than 80 parts of the country, cities and towns and so on. and so for that of issued red alert warnings, which means that forecast is expect temperatures to hit above 40 degrees in the next 24 hours. so, you know, there are concerns that you say about mud slide, sir, and in particular in jane province, they're concerned about glacial melting. it is a mountainous region and certain parts of the province at least and said, there's concerned that might damage crops. and in particular, a cotton field. shin jang is a large producer, one of the largest, or the largest in the world, i should say, a producer of, of cotton and these sorts of extreme weather conditions. not just the searing heat that we're experiencing right now are becoming a regular occurrence in china. also, we're just past the rainy season in this country, and that's caused livelihood. catastrophes regularly, year in year out,
