significant change. in the trajectory of the opera we need to be very careful when interpreting any extremes. beatin incubation periods be in daily numbers. we must take all numbers into account we must look at all number seriously would also must try and interpret what those numbers mean. and not react directly to the number itself. at the heart of the matter that the world health organization will hear it to france we full james bass and has more on the situation. it's the deadliest days so far in the province where the virus broke out. more than doubling the previous record set for monday. after tests proved unreliliable and toooolow to fight the epidemic. thehe provinces changed diagnosis methods. and is now considering ct scan results that revealed lung infections and patience history to confirmrm cases. new measures that means the number of those infected in who bay has sold by almost fifteen thousandnds in the province's capital lou hand centralization method has been implemented in hospitals inn a bid to contain

chief of the south china morning post. n need to use a- o you have a theory behindd whyhy these big spike has occurred just now one of the factors behind thahat you thinkk. yeah wewell they they may change the leadership in the end and will kind and bay. they brought inn the neww leadership- inn orderer to. pacify the public discontent about t the way. the communist party is handled this problem. and so- one of the managersrs to rerestore confidee in the g governmenent- dave dav- decided to take a a more realisistic approach- previously they've been trying to- mininimize the numbeber of. peoe who are affected by. claiming that thesese people i had died r were infected of someme kinind f by a- new moniaia always some kind o oother diseaease. those are they weren'n't. registered

our server. so tell me right the number of that the right but left. you knknow to. discouragege a aind of f public cara panic about days and so now they're trying t tshow that they're taking i knew. and more honest approach if you like to- the problems of dealing with a separate i think you and i both agree the sounds highly suspicious doesn't it. well as it did t to be fair to thee chinese i mean there's not. that much actually k known about this disisease or will not obey disclose very much back to it. and it's actually- gonnana w wih nyny of these things i'm shabnamm known disease it's actually quite difficult. rise up yes it it works comes saying gogot a few. and chest pain you eaeat your way yeah you y your dating with lotsf n nurses and doctors who could. easily miss diagnosese a- i'm forty this

inspection which which china is that may. have the chili. many polite statistics total price thursday people report for july and testing or the commumunist party it's vital information from the public so unfortunately. because of his long record of the party doing days- that they're all that closely on the back foot trying to reassure the public that is not ten times over a hundred find. one thousand times would spend their reporting and data is of course easyy f for me to t here and does the studio in paris and play devil's advocate so. i have a completely what you saying that jasper about the difficulties the doctors and the authorities are facing on the g ground- i'm- that said and i think you made the point already about. a kind of secrecy element about chinese society- i'm do you think we yet. know the full extent of

the outbreak. well i always see blue we don't know the full extent of where i'm we probably won't ever know the full extent becausee the- add the american government for one another people have. complained in public that the chinese are not sharing information. then sharing information with our farm pond that is and i i don't sharing informatation with the- public- that said there are only the within china. covering the some of the virus and so what you sold them whatt where the sort of the good and the bad side to all. communist ruled one is that so- the extreme sececrecy and the and te manipulation of brand of in mason and the attempt to prevenent the p public from doig anythihing. independently to del with the challenge i have they they they sort of a positive side if you lie with the events

coerciveve power of the state. i have to shut down cities to force people to stay. for weeks and months in their apartments and to- bag can completely control not only the flow of information- but the movement of people and that's in fact very very helpful when you are dealing with the early stages of an epidemic. and so the lesson from someme. right now im although although they- a increase the you people could of their a ruler is a lot of different with very opposed to be impressed by the ability of the gogovernment to actuallyly. ring there's some. i actually find them a under control you know in a reasonable amount of time. casper bacca thank you very much indeed for that analysis thanks for joining us he'll fronts twenty four. of course we keep a watching brief

phone that every aspect of the corona virus story forty. next a bipartisan measure limiting us president donald trump authority to launch military operations against iran has been approved in the senate the resolution also by the- democrat democrat senator tim kaine with the genius said the truck must win approval from congress. before engaging further military action. eight republicans sided with democrats on wednesday to- force a procedural motion. on the vote as soon as this thursday. nation so it's going through senate it's gonna against trump kevin go just on the of course is a washington correspondent watching old developments force. catamount getting to you tell us more on how we've reached this point. well it was a verery rare occasion of bipartisan lawmaker shape if you will in a very divided time here inn the west so it is. rare enough to be noted as mentioneded eightht

senators votining and with the democrats eight republican senatotors vototing w with t the democrats to pass at t that w wr powers resolution those senators. as some of them were- we leave the coal sponsors of this bill with ten came the word or two of the most- harsh critics of donald trump's decision to strike at the- you're running military leader qassem soleimani back in early january that was. a ramp call it and mike leaves tunis senators were very critical as of the congress not being consulted on being warned. very critical also of the trump administration's a briefing after the fact of the lawmakers in the house and in the senate to these two men. a world ready is supporting and this resolution and- other moderate republicans joining a like a lamar alexander and susan calling all supporting and this is a resolution but is more of a symbol. a red should be is it a going pass the house because there democratic winfried

probably all past bipartisan support. remember once month already s some resolution in the house which i'm buying. what which was. quite three whip. likely a few republican voting a in that to but will get to the death of donald trump and he is always warned he v. so- lucien in. you know the resolution and the tax. our resolutions real am wh big except which is if there is a imminent threat to the dire so defense. for the states number that when that's and place cost so when my at the arc. of the trump administration which is still being debated to this day is that t there was an i imminet threat that the us was acting in its own defense. so reallyy if this set even if this war powers resolution were to not be vetoed by donald trump there's a little inclination to see whether they would change

the anything give their- situation. the one. struck since online. and most strums reaction been to the cell laterr in the senate. well here reacted already yesterday when i had the- question of that back to the resolution being brought to a vote to- was and decided and he- tweeted that it was. very important for the country security to vote against this resolution and not a time to show a weakness hey he said because he considers it to be as- high as his hands and he says. if my hands were time iran i a field day because this sends the wrong message so it was at a threat and a warning to republicans not to vote for at that resolution he's a course. at setting yes this resolution because he liked it is tying his answer at the trump administration today. rating but it the president. so
