with the pandemic halting the bundesliga season german football is going virtual and online the eat football tournament gives feds something to cheer about as clubs fret over there. on the spice or thanks for joining us as the corona virus continues to spread around the globe the american president donald trump says he is considering sealing off a state of new york in parts of the neighboring states where more than half of the country's 116000 confirmed infections have been reported and almost half of its staff some people would like to see your. son or your future she's made one or 2 was the place. watch this one. i think it about

right. we might have to do it but there's a possibility that some. of your shirt under your. absolutely sure she should get out of. you know i'd rather not do it more on what president trump meant and can do we go live to journalist james ronnell in new york james what would an enforceable quarantine for new york parts of new jersey in connecticut actually look like. that's the question because the president trump is how some powers of a national level. spread out across the united states and a lot of our resting without the governor of this day and decorum and also by the new york studio out of local authority across the area to all that space hotspots in the united states new york if the 2000 cases confirmed already out of numbers also in connecticut and in just the another hot spot the across the united states

what trump might be considering imposing its own kind of travel bans that if people want to move between one state and another he did make reference to the large numbers of new yorkers have homes elsewhere he mentioned florida also look the people have left town already gone to their homes out on long island for example or up in connecticut and what are they do at large number of cases confirmed paid to new york if people are leaving and going to different all of the country what's going on with them coated 19 of course and the worry is. and that's spreading and starting a new outbreak elsewhere in the country. and this appears to be a bit of a u. turn for president trump our viewers know are said what he calls the chinese virus at one point was a hoax how is this announcement of a possible quarantine likely to be perceived by the public. well i mean the 1st thing that you think when you hear that the area you live it's going to be subject to a quarantine the person that goes through your mind maybe i need to get out now some

people are predicting that even though trumpet mention this i'm not actually come through on any old which means that people are going to start leaving the city in greater numbers than they already have and you know the reason they're doing this the quite all the people here are the 300 to something of a ghost town. that large numbers of people are leaving the body the streets the relatively empty every 20 minutes with the industry alone i hear an ambulance going . 500 so we're hearing that there are not ventilate that that the reason and protective equipment the doctors the hospitals are already open over threats one image which is. really striking new york is. generated trucks at the back of hospitals what are they there for that because the hospital can i manage to think they don't have enough faith in the more dramatic scenes in new york a journalist james ryan all thank you for that health experts say the u.s. needs to do more testing to reveal the true extent of the outbreak to help achieve

that the country's food and drug administration has approved a new rapid result test to manufacture abbott laboratories said it is can detect the corona virus in about 5 minutes and it's so small size of a toaster that it could be used in almost any health care setting a firm says it plans to supply 50000 tests a day starting on april the 1st i'm joined now by dr eric finkel during and at the deni ologist and health economist at the harvard chan school of public health thank you for joining us doctor is this test for real it almost sounds too good to be true. it's definitely real and these are the technology has a bolt a lot in the last few years to make this possible and i'm still waiting for it to see some of the accuracy measures because i think those throughout the period you can publish but any test right now is much better than the one we have right now which takes almost

a whole day turnaround and is only 30 to 50 percent accurate so this test it is on a rapid scale can immediately tell people you need to quarantine or not is would be infinitely better and faster in terms of helping us contain this fire so what we have now ok what i'd like to ask about president trump because he had 1st was saying this wasn't really a problem then suddenly he began to take stronger measures under criticism most recently of the 2 trillion dollar bailout which came from the senate and then telling general motors to make a ventilators so that's all good but has a government waited too long and the u.s. . yeah it. missionary him calling it a hoax or just corona flu and saying that you know it's just the flu and you can still go to work with it was just it absolute the wrong thing was the most this is the 1st time in which misinformation came from the top and it wasn't just subtly misinformation but actually cause it sounds i lived you know this virus previously

had a doubling time of 6 days which means you know missing 3 weeks of met you know 200 cases becomes or becomes 806 you know cases you know within just a few weeks we present really messed 10 x. or 50 x. a number of cases and illnesses that we could have prevented and we moved faster and this is a failure of political leadership in the worst extreme so and now we have this pandemic on our hands and it's so busy they're full of many governments who fail to react you are talking of many governments and being involved how is the world overall dealing with covert 19 in country can countries fix it alone yeah so in terms of vaccine production vaccines will be the ultimate solution for its vaccine unfortunately is still about one year to 18 months away maybe we can

find drugs that will work much sooner within 5 to 6 months. rambo but all these kind of things to international cooperation and in terms of supply actually juries actually this number one source for regions to conduct laboratory tests in which we have a global short issuance and all the supply chains for masts in rental leaders all these things require global supply chains in this is why world has to come together not get caught up in trade disputes in tariffs this is the time to for us to come together as a human race to create a manhattan project to solve this epidemic if you work you'll know that it's a global problem requiring a global answer than dr eric fadal doing epidemiologists and health economists at the harvard chant school public health thank you for that. and here's a look now at more of the latest developments in the coronavirus pandemic italy's
