3:34 pm
and- the thing that really was o complicacated for the f follow up i. it would be too expensive. it broke that prevent that. by planning to close its- things warehouses across. out of questions how's it gonna respond now we've seen one statement ran around saying it's going to keep. those closures in effect until next week until three till tuesday oct i thinink i believe we know what's going happen after t that and so thehe questioion is am ii going to continueue to exexpress always. going lee i'm reluctantly- abibide by t this courtt order but by t trying a t of attentionon is becacause obviously the scope of amazon as as a global company thank you very much coast under that from our business desk well moving on- with the us. tell now topping eight thousand comments by donald trump has sparked uprproar of based mockey and genuine concerns that people might poison themselves trying to fight the virus. during the days of news briefing the president
3:35 pm
suggested that scientists should explore injecting disinfectant into the bodies of coronavirus patients. to help treat the spiritual. life the statement was not meant to be taken seriously. or violent or just but i asking is quickly a sarcastic question. to the reporters in the room. about disinfectant on the inside. but it does kill it and would kill it on the hands and that would make. things much better that was done in the form of a sarcastic question to the reporters. more details about these commenents rather good chf from the u. s. t. of lancaster is our guest. thank you very much for being with us donald trump has put his comments down to sarcasm as we had that. okay the response press and elsewhere a lot of. buying thaht are they- well youou know we saw some of the same a rhetorical delivery andnd itn in the earlier days when he said that mexico is going to pay for the wall between. the united states
3:36 pm
and that and that concrete- and he's trying to explain that that's really what he meant. she's doing a lot of things that we don't know. so we're not but when people are desperate. and scared and they're seeing people- passed away or not returning home after goingng t to hospital there's a lot of concern about what the what the self isolatioion is meaning. . postee helplping. with the with the rel information- we're we're concerned aboutut really what people are going to be as doing. it's been aa- - health officials and doesn't matos saying don't do it. it's hard to believe actually there any six months away from a presidential election how these comments and donald trump's general reaction to thehe crisis affected his ratings. well when we're looking at how people are responding by going out into the streets and blocking nurses
3:37 pm
from going to hospitals and calling- this cobit and nineteen x. here's the theory and then at a- trump is this going to save them. what if those who maybe aren't so far right are are getting a little leery about- their presidential. who will probably be their presidential nominee- at that same time that we havave to look into the democrats are put forward and that this is joe biden who. coming from the cocktails of brockck about the double to a lot of these people who believe that donald trump. so at the end of the day the this is ratings a are waiver depending on. how how silly he's being or how serious he is being a presidential he's being- but the end of the day it's gonna come down to. you want to go back to. brock obama a two year or do you want to. go forwardrd with donald trump. so you know. yeah he does. and

3:40 pm
france others imported from abroad. starting on may fourth the government. to start experimenting with distribution and o option is off the table from pharmacies to tobacco shops to town halls. . local authorities may give them out for free otherwise it's not clear how much they'll cost if you search and the government has no plans to regulate prices. this business owner ordered hundreds for his employees paying extra for speedy delivery. was it was only to mask. to pressure upon myself- to listen from you since you've- miss you so much in the water must use would call you a question. rules about when to wear masks also remain unclear they're almost certain to be required on public transpoportation but the governmement hasn't issued f for ththeir guidelelines. since the start of the outbreak french officials have been criticized for their changing advice about wearing masks and for major supply shortages speaking on

3:46 pm
hospital says it should right now. we're still faced. . they have this app. today this leads social distancing stay home order this. they do work we have seen a reduction in the number of patients presenting to the emergency room but we are still facing a lot of patients admitted to the hospital behind thosese walls on ththis medical campus you have five hundred inpatatients are sick with ththcorner virirus- that means that we still need time to take your- patience but i still with. me they are for ices. what your daily rate is like when you arrive at what what happens. how does it fefeel for you when you walk ininto the cupboard nineteen wardrd. first name. is asia the hospital has changed this means that we all became coping nineteen doctors kobe nineteen n nurses. you enter- the units and- most of these rooms are closed to limit the spreread of the of the virus
3:47 pm
but then really what is striking it is. suffering is in those units this patients are get ting for their- patients are extremely short. and a lotot of them have a hard titime our reading of the pictureres that e have to. do to help them the supplemental o oxygen via positive pressure get out today you can tell how w may. how much suffffering there. that's howow difficult has that mean for youu is. to your- have i think to offer to patients to make better your to have treatments we have supportrted treatmemes ofoften thosese patients we dont have a silvever bullet we don't have a a medication that's goiog to make e the firires go o awaye people whoho are coming in with the virus all not only presenting young brothers also with multiple organ failure. when w we wrap. herere is from china and from prior to the
3:48 pm
epidemic arriving in the united states read t the descriptions f the viralneumonia a and those hypoxic. respiratory failures- and does turn out to be accurate descriptions butut what we also realized was stats koboe nineteen was also a renal disease we seekk acute kidney failure it was also a neurologic disease we've all part. about people losing the abability to spell bats and- the virus attacking the olfactory nerve but we've seen. a massive strokes we've seen several languages we have seen several latina we think that this virus causes coagulation disorders which is probably our deadline a lot of his orders he causes we're learning a lot about this virus and we keep searching what do you have to say to protecect those who are gathering. state capititals callining and- because i meant o order is. i don't know that i'm a really have much to say to them it seems that i it's really hard to engage in a dialogue
3:49 pm
with people who. don't really- live in a world where facts and science means something- allll i hopepe for them is that reality doesn't catch up with them. and fortunately it's very possible that some of t these protesters will be inspected in the stations where they once and will in turn in fact some of their familyly members i find it vevery sad.. what do you mean te way that the truck men. with quite the starch. the e firm government failed us. first off by igngnoring the signalsls that this wasas going to be a panandc of biblical proportioions. then by the failure of the testing policy. and the supply chain frfrom mededical supplies- and n today view hear denial or minimization onn the part of the white housese this is very disheartening because the realityy of this virus the reality of this epidemic. is a concrete reality e every day. have you had access to the protective equipment that you need to treat each code
3:50 pm
nineteen patients from the very beginning was started with using supplies that normally a disposable. we started a sanitizing masks was techniques that had never really been researched- and we've done okay with the n. ninety five mask and with the surgical masasks ad withth the goal. of books-- you know we ran out of gas so last week in this institution we had to become creative and we started you know. those are of rain ponchos are i normally use in sporting events. n. or not for medical use but since this is we have to do this i thank this ridiculous. but it shows. how it. s. r. and made in china and only they're all made in china but they all stored in china what i was expecting from the federal administration
3:51 pm
wants to go t to asia sececure e supply chains. control down n. dispututes these put mints through the e hospitals andnd health the w workers they need about what happened instead it's everybody betting against everybody states are hospitals. even in departments. and what happens is health care workers did not get the supplies they neededed and this had an impact on patient. the virus has not been a g great equalizer it has exposed deepp inequalities in this country. mostly because african americans andndatinos have been disproportionately affected by the coronavirus because those communities are disadvantaged- they are more likely to live below the poverty level. if you are living under the poverty level you are living in a small house or smamaller apartments this meanss that you're not able to social justice if you u have fie people in a one bedroom how can
3:52 pm
you help i wait. okay that's because these areas are often the ones that keep working even during the stay home orders they are your delivery people who argue our supermarket or pharmacy if it's more still on the front line as essential workers. but also these communities are impacted greatly by other cororvids they are the victims of obesity and contntrol diabetes and control how detention. envies diseases make them at a higher risk of catching a very severe case of code in nineteen. and ill considered like to die from the disease and much more likely that population are more- affluence. and so we've noticed and this instititution which welcomes communities- afro caribbean comommunities which ae at this disadvantage and we've noticed that former t tolerates was much higher all the way up to t twenty percent. andnd we compared ourselves to o the center of the united states-
3:53 pm
service similar. popululation ws still.. demographphics and the numbers are. as for people who. have health coverage you'll still. this o out a after regardless. all of their ability to pay immigration status this is our pride to welcome everyone but many peoplele have are under insured or have no insurance at all or social wororkers do wonders if there are waways to get thosose people insured the compresss the us congress passed a law- the care act which nineteen stats the careful kobe nineteen will be paid by turns companies but you see how complicated the whole system is not just about how the system it's about having the population under standards. we thinknk of. their care becausese the. about receiving a bill down the road can you tell me about your personal experiences. howow hass
3:54 pm
your lifee been have you been isolating have you been afraid for your own life at any point. you know you finish a day of work at this hospital then you leave itit and you've been exposed. despite all the personal protective equipments and you're thinking not about if you're going to gett the virus but ratherr when you're going to get it. and how sick and my going to be and my surprise. and i'm i a healthy carrier- it's only doctors isolating it's also nurses i've hearard of nurses living in ther basements i have isolated from my family- because i'm afraiaid that will. give the virusus a fine healthy carrier but we have hope that. in the near future we'll have an antibody test they will be able to predict if. we are immune from the virirus- butut we don't know yet- whole- position is try to do that is- so the question
3:55 pm
remains how long do we have to isolate. any particular patients you've treated who will stay in your mind forever. last week one of f my patients passed away- the family was vevery disheartened.d. and they really wanted to have one last momoment with h clark i w went o ththe room- with thehe phone ani could t then. t the whole family with and they sat on the last prayer for her and a few hours later she passed away i think i remember thahat. when you proces what you've what during the dady itit was. we t try to talkmong each other. w we have- zoom meetings w where we all share experience- the mental health professiononals h here on campus have beeeen outstanding offering all the mental health we- we need. i think it's going to take us a long timee to prproces this. there's something very similar to what veterans of war experience- sometimes y you feel that only somebody else who is
3:56 pm
on the frontline it's going to be able to understand. your ex this will be spacious and opens up. did you ever have a- s. a. something like this happening the ididea of a pandemic is nothing newew what we did not expepect he is the federal government ignoring the signals. is above with expect is the white house been in denial what we did not expect is the failure of the cap. what we did not expect was thehe collapse of the supply chain and we did not expect this all the- costs down respect. white house. killed all. of public health n now. histstory will mot likely remember that this caused many american lives the healthcare system is a critical assets it's something that isis not a cost for something that is a well it's's something that is- off a an asset for the entie community to take advantage off
3:57 pm
i hope at the end of the prices everybody therere stand staff. andd the respect that alall institution like or in this country i do take advantage of. you concerned about a second wave here in new york that could potentially be even worse than this one. not only were concerned we prepare for it w we know that if social distancing and- stay home orders or relapse. too soon and too quickly there will bebe a second wave so we remain in crisis mode. you w want to keep the ability open repair large not i think that's very quickly and see. the property will also can that's for. s sure this epidemic collide with the seasonal epidemic and this. evev worse that t the ones that were just experienenced. . thanks very muh for joining us h here on thehe frontt twentnty four interviewed dr julie and kevin and t thank you very m much for the what you're doing you've beenn watchihing the fross twenty four into the- statute
