would have known u.s. president donald trump lashes out at the world health organization for not acting fast enough on the coronavirus it comes as the united states records its highest single day death toll. i'm told me a lot of well welcome to the program we begin in the chinese city of where the corona virus outbreak was 1st reported its locked down that served as a model for countries battling the virus around the world has partially ended after 11 weeks chinese authorities are now allowing residents of was more freedom of movement this move comes as china reported no new deaths on tuesday. it's about time as the clock struck midnight and will hand one of the major last

day measures was removed i travel an impressive light show marked the key. featuring health workers and the words heroic city others werent pausing to celebrate instead thousands of travelers flock to catch trains or take advantage of or move roadblocks. so. i feel great the epidemic has maybe stabilized to some extent so we're able to travel now. has lost a lot in this epidemic and its people have paid a big price. for the lockdown has been lifted i think we're all pretty happy. it's the city where the coronavirus a break began many people have been trapped for more than 2 months they will leave for hand to rejoin friends family and return to work. i came back before

a lunar new year and plan to stay for a few days it wasn't even 2 days and it was announced would be locked down and i couldn't leave so i've been stuck in the whole time. the easing of the lockdown comes as china reported no new coronavirus deaths for the 1st time since it started publishing figures. but authorities still urge caution. since 0 new covert 900 cases does not mean 0 risk for the lifting of the knock down does not mean the lifting of epidemic prevention and control. to hand has been breathing a tentative signs of relief more shops are open and there are more people on the street so a return to normality and we hand appears far off the area's restrictions on movement within the strolling metropolis will remain in place to guard against

a 2nd wave of infection as. the united states is by far the country with the most corona. infections a new york is still reporting shop near rising casualties the death toll has now climbed above 4000 many more than died in the 911 attacks the state and 40 of its biggest one day jump in faith tallaght seize on choose day hospitals remain overstretched but governor andrew cuomo insists the number of deaths is leveling off he says this shows social distancing is working. meanwhile president donald trump has threatened to freeze funding to the world health organization at his daily white house briefing trump criticized the w.h.o. his handling of the crisis saying the u.n. body was china centric they called it wrong they call it wrong they really they missed the call they could have called it months earlier they would have known.

they should've and they probably didn't so we'll be looking into that very carefully and we're going to put a hold on money spent to the w h o we're going to put a very powerful hold on it and we're going to see it's a great thing if it works but when they call every shot wrong that's. when all of a salad is following developments for us in washington all of a president trump and his coronavirus task force have given their daily briefing what were the highlights. well tell me you've just mentioned the president. essentially saying that he will put a hold on the u.s. funding to the world health organization that's a very bold move you heard the sound bite he said they missed the call so and he's partially right because the it world health organization was in fact late calling the corona crisis a pandemic they also were protective with regards to china and the beginnings of the pen demick but it really looks like president trump is really trying to blame

the w.h.o. for his own for his own acting in this crisis because he's taking a lot of heat recently for acting late so the u.s. has turned into the efi center of the cone up endemic as we know and president trump was very reluctant in the 1st place to act quickly to take this threat seriously also and it looks like he's now trying to punish the world health organization and that very well also fits to his rhetoric and that is don't blame me blame the w.-h. all and blame china and part of that also comes at a time when the u.s. is in an election year so all of it will come back to you in a minute but 1st let's have a look at your reports on the changing campaign dynamics tests are critically important for we cannot start provides you instead of campaign rallies the 2 remaining candidates are picked to their living rooms bernie sanders has fallen

behind dramatically productive and front runner joe biden is struggling to land his attacks on president trump only until yesterday at his press conference the president started to our grasp the reality of what he's facing in terms of the number of potential best look coronavirus pandemic has turned the election campaign upside down the white house press briefing room has become trump's preferred we are about putting an optimistic president in the spotlight we have it so well under control i mean we really have done a very good job one day it's like a miracle it will disappear and i hope we can do this by easter. i think that would be a great thing for a country and while soaring death tolls in the united states speak another language on twitter trump is bragging about his t.v. ratings with more than 8000000 viewers tuning in every day there's one thing president trump doesn't have to worry about and that's his media presence while joe biden has almost disappeared from american t.v.

screens president trump simply turned his daily carone of briefings into campaign rallies and reality former obama campaign adviser spencer critchley says the corona pandemic is doing more harm to the president than to democratic hopeful joe biden one of the things i would point to is the famous quote from napoleon bonaparte never interfere with your enemy when he's in the process of destroying him so. that might sound a little bit calculating but in political terms president trump is doing a great deal of damage to his own reputation service members while president trump supporters still stand by his side the projected number of casualties could become a problem for the occupant of the white house. now all of the voters went to the polls on tuesday the keast swing state of wisconsin to tell us more about what happened that. right well 1st so we have important to mention that 15 u.s. states have already postponed their elections due to the corona pandemic and

wisconsin is the only one that moved forward holding this election this primary election today and before there was a fierce battle between republicans and democrats in the state about whether to hold that election or not and the state governor who's a democrat wanted to postpone it then the republican dominated congress state congress in fact did not approve and eventually that moved on and the supreme court of wisconsin had to decide and they decided in favor of folding it with the result that we saw some chaotic situations there are huge lines only 5 polling stations open in milwaukee 2 and a half 1000 members of the national guard deployed so the deciding factor here will be the absentee ballots and we can expect some delays in the results coming in because of that ok wus all of a salad in washington thank you. a still in the us early date states shows that african-americans are more likely to die from covert 19 than

any other ethnic group experts say the figures highlight longstanding inequalities in prosperity health and access to medical care in several states the number of african-americans who have died is higher than the proportion of the population they represent in louisiana for example 75 percent of those killed by the virus so far have been black. now across the atlantic world leaders have been sending get well soon messages to britain's prime minister who spending his 2nd night in an intensive care unit forest johnson is said to be in a stable condition conscious and not on a ventilator and u.k. leaders spent 12 days in isolation before or after testing rather after testing positive for the corona virus who was hospitalized on sunday evening with a high fever over his condition deteriorated a day later. european finance ministers have been talking late into the night

trying to strike a deal on how to rebuild their economies after the crisis passes eurozone countries over so-called corona bonds a solidarity fund jointly paid for by member states italy's pushing for the bonds the virus has had a devastating impact on its economy. these fisherman from fuming chino near rome are still free to go to see. unlike other italians who would like to work but on too loud too but with no restaurants open no one wants the fish they catch. everything is fallen by half sales demand and what we are on we used to go out 5 days a week now with the corona virus and the lack of demand it's only 3 times. the whole of it really has been in lockdown for 5 weeks. vibing essential services such as food and health care can continue operating its lee was already grappling with

financial problems now the virus is hitting europe's 3rd biggest economy especially hard businesses are in trouble and many people are finding it difficult to cover their living costs the government has come up with a series of rescue packages. show this creep businesses with 400000000000 euros in liquidity 200000000000 for the domestic market and 200000000 to reinforce the export market. that weren't be enough heavily indebted italy is calling on the e.u. for help and specifically for corona bonds but rome's appeal for debt to be shared across europe is not getting through worried about their future italians are also angry. europe is crazy and always has been. there was the. if there's going to be one europe then people should just think of themselves
