in the bundesliga season german football is going virtual and online at the football tournament his fans something to cheer about as the club's 1st of their financial future. i'm anthony howard thanks for joining us as the corona virus continues to spread around the globe u.s. president don't trump says he has decided against sealing off new york and parts of neighboring states he said he was considering quarantining hotspots where more than half of the country's infections and deaths have been reported trump tweeted on the recommendation of the white house coronavirus task force and upon consultation with the governors of new york new jersey and connecticut i've asked the center for disease control to issue a strong travel advisory to be administered by the governors in consultation with

the federal government quarantine will not be necessary the c.d.c. has now told residents to refrain from non-essential travel for 2 point. some let's go straight to journalist chang's ronnell in new york times how do you think this news will be received that there will be no quarantine in new york city and state well i think with some degree of relief obviously in the city new york with a mounting death toll and a really large number of confirmed cases you could say that no it's have been frayed i guess to anything that isn't going to end both of a significant increase a restriction about people's ordinary daily life is going to be something that people are going to appreciate of course we're still waiting on tenterhooks to find out exactly what kind of travel advisory it's going to be given by the government and by the centers of disease control obviously the concern that donald trump the president had does still exist there are a large number of new yorkers with 2nd homes in different parts of the country

florida connecticut long island and so on and that's a really large number of cases here and people have been thinking well i'm going to get out of the city and i'm going to go down to my 2nd home in florida but of course some of them are infected with the 19 virus and some of them don't know about it and what do they do they get on an airplane and they take it down there as well and that could be the cause of. of another outbreak in a different part of the country and not a fire for the government to have to put out james how do you think this is going to play out of the next few days. well like i say nerves are definitely right in new york it's only every few minutes also that you hear ambulance siren that's another person being taken to one of the hospitals. the death toll in the thick e.f.l. stood at about $700.00 a few hours ago and all but you got numbers going to go up and a lot of new yorkers are basically just locked down in their homes at the moment

they're not going to work they're working from home maybe ducking out to do a quick run to a grocery store and then coming home again wearing and i'm gloves and just trying so well counting the how far it's going to go over it we're hearing worrying stories from inside the hospitals stories of doctors and don't have an authentic don't have been offered. as being some of their colleagues being told to go home because they've got sick themselves and outside the back of the hospitals there's been some images that have been shared around new york which are truly rows and rows of refrigerator trucks why if they brought the refrigerator trucks then i tell you why it's because they know the morgues in these hospitals are going to go over a failed transfer onil in new york thank you well meanwhile health experts say the u.s. needs to do more testing to reveal the true extent of the op right there to help achieve that the country's food and drug administration has approved

a new rapid result test not a factor at abbott laboratories says it can to take the corona virus in about 5 minutes the unit is sent to me so small the size of a toaster that it can be used in almost any health care setting the family says it plans to supply 50000 tests a day starting on april 1st. so how real are the claims we asked dr eric feigele dean he's an epidemiologist and health economist in washington. 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 are the peer reviewed and published but any test right now is much better than the one we have right now which takes almost a whole day to turn around and is only 30 to 50 percent accurate so this test it is on a rapid scale 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 that was dr eric from washington will europe is struggling with the growing increasingly of a strained hospitals due to the worldwide pandemic strain is europe's 2nd worst hit country or thirty's their report of the highest increase in fatalities with more than 800 people dying in a day spain is also reporting the largest percentage of infected health care workers something for the straining system. of burial in hazmat suits. one of thousands of victims of the corona virus outbreak in spain. hospital staff in madrid don't need to see the statistics to know spain does not yet have a handle on the epidemic. it has been a deadly week for the country 2nd and daily fatalities only to italy. the shortage
