the west bank as israel plans to end next parts of the territory. a mommy it is a welcome to the program we begin with a warning from the u.s. government's top infectious disease expert dr anthony felt she has sounded the alarm about the rapid spread of the corona virus in the country he says the number of daily cases could more than double if the country fails to contain a surge in infections across several states here's his testimony to congress. we can't just focus on those areas that are having the surge it puts the entire country at risk we are now having 40 plus 1000 new cases a day i would not be surprised if we go up to 100000 a day if this does not turn around and so i am very concerned let's go to straight
1:02 am
straight to washington where did stuff on siemens is on the story high stuff on thanks for joining us that's a stark warning we just heard from dr what is that that concerns him the most. the numbers it's the numbers which can start in the 1st and this is what he sees in trends and that's why i said stock warning could be $100000.00 shortly per day i remind you those are infectious cases per day he's warning off of 800000 in the united states $36.00 states out of 50 have now trending up. cases from parents to just a week ago 15 states are reporting the highest infection numbers to date 12 states only 12 states only have a flat rate and only 2 have a declining one that is not good meth these are not good numbers and for an infectious disease expert like mr anthony fauci this is really really alarming so it is for also the director of c.d.c. who said the same thing it doesn't look good the trajectory is really really bad
1:03 am
texas reporting 7000 cases record today california with 6000 and i could go on florida georgia arizona and so on so that is all not very good and stuff on the european union seems to be concerned as well that put out a list of countries whose health situation was deemed safe safe enough to allow residents from those countries to enter the block starting july 1st but. noticeably united states is not on that list so before we talk about that here's a bit of context. roams biggest sites are once again open for terrorists but for americans there's no place at the table a painful reality for many businesses. more than put on. american tourism is very important film all as it's a country with many inhabitants and the number of tourists is very high and they always come to rome where they always have come if they don't come everything will be attractive. to us was europe 2nd largest source of non-domestic tourists in 2018
1:04 am
when the u.k. is counted americans even visited ireland in higher numbers than brits. one possible bright spot travelers from china could soon be allowed back in the e.u. chinese tourist numbers have steadily gone up over the years. still the going is slow for europe's top destinations this summer even europeans are staying closer to home and that could leave many businesses with no other choice but to shut their doors. let's go back to stefan stephens in washington so what has been the reaction there to the fact that the e.u. is barring american visitors. is overwhelmingly met with understanding maybe the president is not amused of all this i can imagine he's not but you know i mean look at the look at the numbers again we have said it's the american infection rate is at $40000.00 per day plus and indeed in the entire
1:05 am
you it's under $10000.00 infections per day so there is the stark difference the united states seems to not be in control of what's going on with covert 19 and with the pandemic here in the country the e.u. seems to have a better grip on this as of know it used to i don't know if this can change but in terms of dust the united states want to change this because are people eager to travel and go back to europe of course they are however i think most experts if not all and most politicians are actually very much aware of that this is a good move they would have lobbied for if to the tables have turned well looking forward perhaps of the end of summer vacation is something being done in the u.s. to bring the coronavirus situation under control. well if you at other times listen to mr today making
1:06 am
a statement they are basically on their knees miss the fall and his colleagues on their knees and beg for young people to be. to be cautious and not together in lot scrawls they are on their knees and beg people to wear masks when ever there and however they are out in the boat and not in their private homes so it is those little things of course they are a larger problem too and that is still testing and tracing. there is actually numbers out there and theories that predict since that the number off the daily cases is above 100000 already because it's a largely under reported however this is what. the experts saying where mass do not fall for fall safety avoid the beaches and the bars and what have you and where is the federal leadership it's not coming from the white house as at the

1:12 am
that would be unacceptable. correspondent tanya kramer reports from. this town the road leads to the palestinian village of beit exeunt next to the security barrier that separates israel from the occupied west bank at this particular spot the fence of the israeli barrier was built around a house belonging to one palestinian family that i it's live in this almost unique enclave right next to each of the settlement at the entrance gate and cameras are remotely monitored. like other palestinians sanders and i had wonders what will happen to his home if the settlement becomes officially part of israel a move based on the controversial you as peace proposal put forth in january. but. i consider the annexation that we're hearing about to be a show of american and israeli arrogance in order to confiscate more land the israeli and american governments just want the land but without the people killed.
1:13 am
so far israel hasn't presented any official maps to explain which areas it could next 1st and where the lines would be drawn and i have is concerned that the move could lead to yet more isolation and further restrictions on movement is specially since the tram plan and visions only limited enclaves for the palestinians. there's no future. there's no hope of. my hopes are gone that so the support we see for the israelis nobody cares about us palestinians had to work with all of the movement between different parts of the occupied west bank is already very complicated for palestinians so now we also want to go to the settlement it's just literally and lead away from us but to get there we have to drive to the nearest checkpoint and it will take us some time. it's more than an hour's drive to cross
1:14 am
the kalandia checkpoint. only palestinians with an israeli permit can cross from here. from there we return to the settlement of given her. son. who is one of the settlements founders like most residents he's waiting for more details on the an exaggeration plans from the israeli government. official to shia holy significant things that could come out of this plan. is that it can open up a very positive opportunity for us to expand our settlements for our children and it's also good for the people on the other side of the sense that if an exaggeration goes ahead it's expected to be a long process on the palestinian side of the fence uncertainty is crowing us once again maps r.v. figure that without the people living there having much say about where the lines are drawn. you're watching news don't forget you can keep up to date on our web
