some feel they are being unfairly targeted or we are unjustly punished stigmatized fingers are automatically being pointed at us bars and restaurants we are responsible for the rise in kobe cases in marsay it's nonsense how and why are we responsible for this when we do everything to comply with the rules with the others also that france is prime minister disagreements speaking on a t.v. programme he said the industry has contributed to the surge in covert cases. don't think long ago about throwing in a wall many people in cities see bars where a lot of people don't have masks and don't respect the social distancing measures so they are hotbeds of contamination i mean a short while i was and we are a full 3 times more likely to be infected in a bar then in a normal business with. other french cities are also bracing for tougher

restrictions in the capital paris bars and restaurants will have to shut at 10 pm. we're joined now by john campbell one of your troops more famous trying to virus researchers and analysts many of us been following him since the pandemic began thanks so much for coming in john is the spike run we're seeing in marsay and other european big cities is a result phenomenon or is this europe wide. it's pretty well you over why i mean at the moment spain is it is leading the increasing cases then france and then the u.k. is increasing quite a bit now but there are no to public sections like italy so it is a bit patchy but there was a summary by washington state university in seattle just a couple of days ago and they describe your office surging generally so we're seeing a general trend in your craving creases but we are seeing particular countries increasing at a more rapid rate and of course what we need to do is learn from the mistakes of

the countries that are increasing at a more rapid rate and try and use that information to keep the levels of spread down in other countries such as germany and the u.k. where the levels are currently lower a lot of people talking about a 2nd wave being a possibility we need to define our terms of course is a 2nd wife the start of one. it really depends on how you define it i mean what really matters is the pragmatic definition and in a 2nd way or an increase in cases the point is we have a sustained increase in cases from day to day from week to week and that is exactly what we're seeing in parts of europe and we are seeing it at different levels as well so as we've said spain and france at high levels u.k. and germany still increasing albeit at lower levels probably would call it a 2nd wave personally because obviously quite high numbers of cases back in march april may then we went down in the summer there's a lot of reasons for that and now we're going back up again but i really think it's important to learn some of the lessons from these other countries that are that are

doing well in the countries that aren't doing so on doing so well at the moment ok what would be some of those lessons if you if you were john well it's a it's a very well it's a nice app is working very well we only had started with the op yesterday in the u.k. which is really quite a sad situation that has taken so well and it's really wasn't complacent over the summer because italy suffered so badly in the 1st wave and it was the 1st country really to suffer but i don't think it forgotten the lessons of the. of what we might call this 1st wave whereas other countries took their foot off the off the accelerator a little bit italy maintained its 14 days quarantine it didn't really encroach tourism the way spain did a lot of the resurgence in cases in spain now from tourism so it was minimal and italy used its testing capacity wisely so all countries are limited testing to prostate it to be targeted to test trace and isolate the contacts of people that was symptomatic the contacts of people who were asymptomatic whether it was work

family or social and the other thing they did in italy was the identify specific infection drives and one of those was dancing in nightclubs oh that was a band on the seventy's that john campbell thanks so much for coming on one day to keep up your work there for all of us thanks but yes. stick around now some of the other developments in the pandemic israel has toughened its coronavirus measures after a 2nd lockdown failed to reduce new infections new rules will close most workplaces shutter outdoor food markets and further limit prayers and demonstrations. britain has reported its highest number of new cases in a day just over 6600 the government announced sweeping new measures earlier in the week designed to curb the viruses spread and the number of people to have died from cove in mexico while that has passed the 75000 mark the country's seen more than 715000 infections. and rio de janeiro has delayed next year's world famous carnival celebrations the event which draws
