muslims in parts of india take the rap folded her out of virus we go to one city where muslims are accused of staging what locals support her in that she hotter. hello i'm christine wonder welcome to the program china is reading as the full impact of the coronavirus walk down speak comes korea 1st economy has taken a hit with the 1st drop in output for 3 decades we'll come back to that in a moment the 2nd is new figures revealing that the death toll in the city where the virus was 1st detected is hoffa's much again as previously reported now we're forcing these they now say almost $1300.00 more people die than initially thought was bringing the death toll to almost $4000.00 that would be the highest in china.

he's bay misreporting and overwhelmed hospitals for the increase but there are growing concerns that china has covered up the true extent of its offering. joining me now is correspondent who is in beijing hello. so how did this revision of the coronavirus state toll in will harm come about. what the government is saying basically that the numbers work wrong in the beginning there was a lot of it was a chaotic time and many of the people who are deceased actually they were not the registered. nurse so they want to test it for the virus and now they've been included in the new numbers and secondly many of the private health clinics in private hospitals they've also not forward their numbers to just 10 foot institution so basically they've corrected that you numbers and that's a surprise if we journalists we know of personally of many cases where people in the bay in the province also in the city or on have obviously been showing symptoms

of the virus but have not been tested so they didn't were not included in the statistics. if i mean as i said leading into this conversation there has been sort of mounting criticism of the chinese handling of the corona virus outbreak and we're certainly hearing that from wisdom courtis to. yeah i mean for example of president trump and his government they're indirectly supporting a theory that basically states that the virus might have originated in a bio lab in ohio and we know that such a bio left exists in the washington post also reported that the scientists who were in fact researching about a coronavirus there. that the security the safety standards were pretty lax etc but actually many scientists have refused that theory and i think it's highly unlikely but yet the chinese government is very very. react very strongly to both those theories because. for example many many scientists in china who is doing research

on the root origin of the virus and east of the ruble from the government are you know she can't publish them and also the level of suppression to our correspondence is increasing and also heart you have basically the state media to this no open discussion about where the virus originated and also of all the wrongdoings of the government we know that in the 1st weeks in general. the health commission already wanted the virus is one of the most severe challenges and sars but only one week later the government has actually acknowledged that there was a human to human transmission ok that's the in question reporting in beijing and. now cities across china may be nifty lockdowns but curled a virus has done significant damage to the nation's economy. by almost a save in this age in the 1st 3 months of this year it's the 1st decline in 3 decades as china's factories shops and transport closed down.

china's economy has virtually come to a screeching halt. car sales at 1st dropped and then plummeted down 21.6 percent in january then down 92 percent in february according to the china association of automobile manufacturers. their industrial production also contract it dropping 13.5 percent in february year on year. the chinese are once again venturing outdoors many workers have returned to the factory and businesses have reopened but it will take time for global supply chains to recover especially since other large industrialized nations are still in lockdown and there's little demand for goods and supply parts from china. the impact will be felt everywhere given that china's share of the global g.d.p. is almost 1000 percent more than double what it was during the sars epidemic of

20022003. it's still too soon to make reliable forecasts but the international monetary fund anticipates that this year will see the worst global recession since the great depression of the 1930 s. with the recovery only starting and 2021 and only if the pandemic is under control by then. now here's a quick roundup off of the developments around the world french president emmanuel across has questioned china's handling off the corona virus outbreak. that things happened in china that quote we don't know about close quarters will allow small businesses to reopen on monday the country was one of the 1st in europe to shut down but is now gradually easing its way off down at german health minister on ses the outbreak in germany is under control new data shows the infection rate has fallen significantly. the u.s.

president donald trump say's healthy americans will be able to get back to work as soon as local conditions soon. allow trump as sales a plan for a phased return to normal daily life in the united states he say's the reopening will be done one careful step at a time now the plan is a set of recommendations for all state governors not old is trying to back down from his insistence on monday that he had total 42 direct states what to do. these are just some of the 22000000 americans signing up for unemployment benefits only a few weeks ago the u.s. could boast record employment numbers the booming economy was president trump's signature achievement but the coronavirus wiped out 3 years of gains in a matter of weeks now trump says it's time to start gradually opening up the economy again our approach outlines 3 phases in restoring economic life

we are not opening all at once but one careful step at a time and some states will be able to open up sooner than others to lock down would remain in places like new york the epicenter of the pandemic there all stories of ordered shops businesses and schools to remain closed for another month but other areas with declining infections and strong testing could ease restrictions the end goal a return to the way things were this is not going to be a new normal where somebody has been having for 25 years 158 seats at a restaurant and now he's got 30 or he's got 60 because that wouldn't work that's not a normal normal will be of he has the 158 or 68 seats and that's going to happen and it's going to happen relatively quickly we hope but with food banks reporting skyrocketing to man it's increasingly ordinary americans who are struggling to put food on the table as the coronavirus look down takes its toll. isn't it that some
