1:02 pm
rest of the world because of that increase in cold cases in china city, there is scrambling to install hospital beds, then they are shortages of drugs to treat the virus sharon cove. it related death have been reported since sunday, but health experts warn the situation is worse than official data suggests. richard kimber has more from hong kong. well, initially the hope was that things were very much get back to normal, that manufacturing and global supply chains. we get back on track international investors started pouring money into the chinese stock market just hours after these relaxation announcements were made. but now the world bank and many international banks have started fairly, aggressively scaling back their forecasts. what they think is possible for china, not just for this year, but also for next year. speaking to employers over the phone yesterday, based on the mainland, i was told that there were multiple cases of coven 19 on almost every country that everybody was speaking to. and that's affecting hiring, it's affecting long term planning, and it's affecting those very same supply chains that the international world we're
1:03 pm
hoping we're going to get back on track. and so basically, the expectations from the international economic will, or that china's growth story next year is going to be very much hampered by what's expected to be a long drawn out recovery period. as it transitions out of this 0 covey policy. we're looking not at growth levels of 567 percent as had been projected earlier on last year, but now much closer to 34 percent. those kinds of levels because of the length of time it's expected. this transition period could take a, china's health authorities have been reporting around $2500.00 cases per day since the relaxations were introduced. they reported 7 deaths since that time as well. but international health experts are looking at this data and the trying to make projections based on what's happened elsewhere and look at the size, the chinese population and trying to figure out if these kinds of numbers can make sense. let's speak to andy mark about all this. he's a senior research fellow at the center of china and globalization, and he's joining us live from beijing. thank you so much for being analogy. there
1:04 pm
was a reaction 1st to this world bank forecast found on the chinese economy. how concerning is this inside china? or honestly uh, this is a bit of a puzzling change to me and i'll give you a couple reasons for that. so 1st of all, i am here in beijing and everyone almost everyone i know has gotten co bid in the last week or so including me. and i think the government claim that it's not that far different from a cold. a certainly seems to be the case anecdotally in that many, many people are some surveys i've seen in beijing say more than 70 percent of the of more than 20000000 people in beijing have already contracted cove it in for many of those people. the symptoms lasted 2 or 3 days, including me. so i had a low fever, cough and
1:05 pm
a headache that were gone pretty much gone by day 3. so we don't know. ah, how this coven way will plo play out in china? but eric totally, it certainly seems to be resolving. so fairly quickly i was asked about the world bank forecast for china. you know, i wonder how concerning is that for the chinese government? yes. well, so here's the thing. so if this wave of cove it is relatively mild and resolves itself very quickly, i think these negative economic forecasts are not going to be accurate. and that in fact, we might see a very powerful economic rebound in by 2013 right. isn't expected by the world bank says that the chinese economy phase significant also non pandemic related risks, including persistent stress in the real estate market. what the chinese government
1:06 pm
doing to address the crisis in the debt ridden property sector. absolutely. so a couple of key things have happened. so the 20th party congress ah, is over the, the central economic we're conference recently just ended. and the message from both were very, very clear. but fortunately, ah, clovis has become much more infectious, but much less lethal. so the government now has made economic ah, recovery a top priority. so it's not just a pandemic, as you've said, rightly said. but there's a challenges facing the real estate sector, the tech sector of the chinese economy. these are areas where central government policy can have a very powerful positive impact. but there are still risks facing the chinese economy because a lot of the external environment,
1:07 pm
what happens to the global economy. if the u. s. a falls into recession, as many people believe it will. if the inflation in euro, and the economic chaos associated with the ukraine conflict. worse than this of course will be a negative drag right on the chinese, a con. but with a kind of amazing, i submitted a role in, in global supply chain. how do you see the global economy being impacted? sure. why? think it in this case again? ah, if this wave of coven is indeed much less, ah, lethal end ah, is blows over much more quickly than i think many western observers seem to be assuming. we will see a very powerful economic re bound in china in 2023 and this will have a very positive impact on the global economy. but again, all the global con is facing a number of other challenges as well. but i think china's role in it will be very
1:08 pm
positive. thank you for talking to us, andy mark from the center of china and globalization, joining us from beijing. we appreciate your time. i sure i in thailand, rescue efforts have gone into a 2nd day after a navy ship sank on sunday. so far, 76 personnel have been rescued by 29 is still missing and the window to find them is closing fast. says the man carnac's place with a flotation device, an extensive training. you can spend roughly 48 hours in the seat before conditions overpower you a couple and, and get why. life jacket, life buoy, and the floating devices allow us on 48 hours to save their life. martin, so to morrow will be the highlight. we'll try to do as much as we can to save them . he got that my give me the h t m s. a soccer tie corvette sank on sunday. it's now merged at the wound and a flotation devices on board. the amount of sale as the ship was carrying an extra

1:14 pm
what is found to have an effect on health care provision in the national health service? that is, of course, the point of a strike to cause disruption and they will be a 2nd day of disruption with nurses joining picket lines. crossing wales and northern ireland historic. the sequence of nurses strikes the most expensive in the 106 year history of the royal college of nursing. and indeed, the history of the national health service itself, which many of the picket line behind me will tell you, has been the subject of funding cuts under funding for years since the economic crisis in 2010 as have the nurses themselves and show their cost up to 20 percent in real terms. play with wages failing to keep pace with in place, but one of those nurses joins me now. dave ha, thanks for joining us today. kind of being an easy decision. i'm sure that the nurses to walk up rewards to walk away from their patients. jibley, you and your colleagues feel you have no choice. there's a reason why they all had
