2:32 pm
a criteria for indian citizenship. the new citizenship law has also been one of the catalyst for protests in other parts of india places as far apart as go out in the north east kolkata in the east and hundreds in the south here's what people are angry about. again citizens of amman minette yet as in a water light their protest from indian communities any indian in riyadh yet isn't strong professed no not in the least ben from gaining international support from the community from so that is why it is that frankly the lies from. the game and the internet so the support for citizenship and so we hope the whole of india or strummed is not in the movie. for everyone but. they are not going to. come to india for you if. you don't get to what i say these

riots are happening because of the government if our government hadn't brought in this new rule they wouldn't be any question if these riots on our india is like a big day of allowance hindus muslims sikhs and christians live together in harmony but since the government has implemented the new citizenship law it's led to this violence and we have very sad about it to you then the facade would have a member of the head but not to mention of these violent protests at a joint press conference in delhi of us president trump an indian prime minister more the video of a correspondent michelle just was at that press briefing and filed this report. the highlight of the u.s. president's 2 day visit to india the bilateral talks between prime minister. and u.s. press than donald trump have come to an end in statements made to the press prime minister. talk about this comprehensive strategic partnership between the 2

2:35 pm
is the number of cases of the dead. trees around the world. to develop a vaccine against it but it's a time consuming process a number of the trees around the world is developing including the university of hong back in 2003 it was the 1st. visit of the researchers there to see firsthand trying to help this time rob. so what we're looking at cells which have been grown in culture and on the surface so . it's possible just weeks ago this virus. now understanding these images is key to saving lives professor john nicholls and his team at hong kong university studying how the new corona virus replicates in human cells their work is already shedding light on its mortality rate why it's proving less deadly than related virus south and sars it really started replicating
2:36 pm
in the lungs and less in the bronx where the upper airway this far seems to be more likely at this stage of records in the airways than in the lungs and we choose to take that to explain why it's not as dangerous so. understanding how the virus replicates could ultimately shape the way it's diagnosed and even how it's treated . this isn't the 1st time scientists have been on the forefront of the battle against a deadly virus as specialists in emerging viral infections they found themselves at the center of the 2003 cells epidemic here at this university that remain just strides were made and the fight for guard dogs is not rare experience for experts who throw out big harness to combat this virus today the university was the 1st to isolate the virus which cools cells 1st and manic paris is among those credited
2:37 pm
with controlling the outbreak he says while the mortality rate for covert 19 may be lower it's spreading move rapidly and could even be transmitted before patients develop symptoms there's no question that this is more than saws more difficult to control because unless you really get people very. isolated britain that you know mission is challenging but as with saws that was possible the university is what he wanted vaccine bought it still months away back in 2003 candidate frank seems to saws were also developed bats funding was cut once the virus was brought under control and a vaccine never produced. professor malik says if we could be unable to progress further that be better prepared today even if we are able to dodge the bullet this time and i'm not sure that definitely will be another time and i don't think we can keep dodging these bullets forever but one of these days we're really going to have
2:38 pm
a major epidemic that really disrupts you know the global economies global lifestyles and things we take for granted so i think it's time that the global community particularly the konami community. took this very seriously there is a race against time as covered $1000.00 continues its spread around the world a professor manic warning the prospect of a global pandemic is now touching day. the world health organization has stopped short of defending the outbreak of pandemic but has asked countries to be prepared for one because american idol is head of the infectious diseases section at the university medical center. and she joins me now on the program professor i don't measure to have you with us on the program can we expect a vaccine against the current or no bias anytime soon. unfortunately answer
2:39 pm
that has to be not anytime soon so we're scientists are frantically working towards the vaccine and will have books into the liberal groups but not in the coming months so that they can be rollouts to the general population what is the earliest time peter been looking at that the vaccine could be made available to the general public. well it's a little bit difficult to speculate but there are certain steps that are part of the process of developing a vaccine so some parts go very fast so. the sequences of the virus became available very fast and so in the test you can be generated quite fast sometimes in weeks or months and many are already kind of and that's the but then they have to be tested for safety giving bechstein is a private giving to somebody who's healthy so we have to make sure it's safe to say so or has been tested in it in small animal and just see if it's safe at about it
2:40 pm
if it does the thing that we wanted to do it would protect us and then it has to be manufactured image actually to the highest standards so those steps can really not be that much so the 1st of things would probably go into humans for testing for safety in the screen it permit or maybe there something or faster but we were not be able to have them for to help ablation before next year and that would even be very fast next year would be fast i mean what does that mean for the current outbreak so essentially what they're saying is it is under a mistake to expect a vaccine for the current outbreak yes unfortunately that is it in order to expect aisha's out well that is that science is so advanced like and you may get vaccines faster that it has an impact right now but this is just not the way products like vaccines are even drugs that can be manufactured and skinned up in this short period of time and that. experts from the professor would be what use is
2:41 pm
a vaccine if it is developed after the outbreak it was developed for. well isn't it good that good example is evil that would begin with africa we didn't have x x since then didn't have any so nice bed and sing about it started to air in full force so we have a current outbreak and it allowed back in the d.r. see also a public health emergency of an international concern and the development that we had done many years back or 4 years back is now paid off because we now have a licensed product and now saves lives in the current outbreak so there might be outbreaks with as good of out as in the future we don't know that yet what development will be is going to stay it's going to go away will it come back is it going to be season or maybe next year we can protect people from. bias infection which cause the current house in texas disease starts to. process is that a wheel of being ahead of the curve i mean is that a with full vaccines to be developed before the emergency use or to be upon us.
2:42 pm
but this is actually you know this is been an initiative that was started by the w.a.c. a lot and also either with his actions in the aftermath of the ball outbreak so to be proactive to it and if i organisms. that can cause pandemics and actually cyrus and most when i was mantles so vaccine development for sas and nurse has already been underway. and it's also on that this is use excellent new disease so we're developing a vaccine to that point that we can react faster when a new pathogen comes in those initiatives out on the way and me at faster than we've ever been but unfortunately it's not fast enough to make an impact on the current situation say in italy in iran in china in the coming rights if we leave it there for the time being professor martin at all thank you so much for joining us my pleasure. that's it for today we leave you with images of the world coping with
2:43 pm
the corner of us epidemic let's you tomorrow. any puffiness out there by a long it's not easy to go to another country you know nothing about africa i don't do this because we can't stay in venezuela i'm not. that. cusa global news that matters d.w. made for mines. beethoven is for me. is for. beethoven is for. me to use.
2:44 pm
and beethoven is for. beethoven is for everyone. beethoven 2020 years of the 50th anniversary here on d. don't you. look up the. unforgettable extraordinary and an expression of love donald trump describes his state visit to india is it all hugs and kisses india would be a huge huge market for the u.s. but a trade deal is far away despite trump's promises of progress. and the spread of the coronavirus keeps dragging down global financial markets companies brace full further supply chain disruption governments take fiscal action. and been physical
2:45 pm
and let's see business the world's 2 biggest democracies claim they're making progress on a free trade deal president of trump says u.s. ties with india stronger than ever and india says that both sides have decided to fully engaged to move towards a pact that sounds like baby steps. no that's not a comprehensive trade agreement he's signing not yet at least the u.s. president put his name to the visitor book at the memorial to mahatma gandhi in new delhi before being presented with a bust of the much revered independence leader however that was not the only place where donald trump left his presidential mark i know prime minister bertie will agree that this has been a very productive visit for both of our countries earlier today we expanded our defense cooperation with agreements for india to purchase more than $3000000000.00 of advanced american military equipment including apache and.
