trials of a potential corona virus vaccine and the country has also rolled out new measures to curb the spread of. there are 3 to. control the little writhing passages of. infra red there's a thermal camera and the passage is it taken a brewer to the plate. as the number of infections surges in the u.s. the secretary of state points the finger at russia spreading false information. and last orders in the u.k. as the prime minister orders the closure of all pubs and restaurants while medics working round the clock to treat 1000 patients complain of pressure and abuse.

there's a lot of. questions left. we need the help we can get. broadcasting live direct from. international certainly glad to have you with us. the number of corona virus cases a worldwide has now reached more than 2 170000 the pandemic has claimed more than 11000 lives with more than half of those in europe meanwhile the world health organization says at least 20 possible vaccines are being developed in a massive global effort. russia is one of the countries to have started trials of a potential $1000.00 vaccine the country has $253.00 confirmed cases which is

relatively low officials say the strict measures taken early on appear to be working so far they include comprehensive checks at airports but i guess you have want to find out. welcome to sherry and that's in the airport where officials have invited us to reassure the russian public that they are doing everything possible to prevent the spread of the coup with 19 virus here in russia now personally i would have taken them at their word and left it at that but juicy cool's i was here last a month ago when strict travel controls just came into play i don't have 4 memories i ended up in quarantine for almost 3 weeks. sanitation here is on steroids according to latest studies the virus can survive in

various services for up to 9 hours so obviously they need to keep everything very clean. so here the front line troops the medics the needs and greet the arriving passengers in russia monitor them pass them analyze them and send them to quarantine they're just heading to their desks a new jet has landed from europe. the slow sanitation special issues thermal cameras on board they walk through the aisles pointing this cameras a passenger in their seats is a person is a healthy as they can leave the plane there are 3 layers of thermal control that all arriving passengers have to pass through there's this infrared camera there's

a thermal camera and the passenger's temperature is it taken abroad the plane. they gave us mosques which is good we also have to fill out a form i don't know what's happening at this they've checked us with thermal cameras i think they're doing the right thing. this is the baggage claim area they've just passed passport control at this 3rd their temperature has been taken 3 times 3 times already they have been round for it was revealed to be who'd been in contact with whether they be expensed ready with the infected. when passengers go through sheremeta terminal f.

they complete a form indicating a possible date or phone number and address we check their flight numbers give them a list of anti epidemic instructions and explain that they need to comply with these rules. and the medics here are going to check them they're going to take their ad they could advise them they're going to check through it. takes web samples and 7 may have to get tested after that one of these people are going to be said for say. the medics however at the stations day and night working in shifts while the infection may have slowed international travel to a trickle of its former self there are still thousands and thousands of people waiting to get back who well the virus is technically known as sars c.o.v. 2 this is how it looks under an electron microscope the image was provided by

scientists at a lab in novosibirsk and they have deciphered the complete genome of the molecule they used a sample from a patient suffering from 19 the disease actually caused by the virus. now the majority of russian patients are being sent to moscow's come in hospital are to discuss to the pandemic with the hospital's chief doctor he explained why the virus has spread relatively slowly in russia. most of. the situation in moscow is very open we get constant updates on the overall situation which are the age ranges going up the 1st patients were aged between 30 and 35 people returning from that travels no it's the people who came into contact with them are typically 37 in order so far we're not seeing an exponential spread of the virus so this is no miracle its due to the tough measures in place and moscow relating to contacts in corn. i see several ways this crisis might go if russia follows the chinese example

then i expect it to end in many r jews but if russia sees in italian style response then it won't end until september as. u.s. secretary of state has accused russia of spreading false information over the coronavirus pandemic artie's came up and has more. as the united states struggles to cope with the outbreak of corona virus fingers are being pointed at russia china and iran for spreading disinformation related to the outbreak this is what we heard from u.s. secretary of state mike palm pale the issue of deceit information is there any particular locus for this decision or mission or is a diffuse it's pretty diffused unfortunately but we've certainly seen it come from places like china and russia and iran for their coordinated efforts to disparage what america is doing an arc of idiot to do all the things that present trying to set in motion here no evidence has been presented to back up these accusations and

now we've heard from the russian foreign ministry which has made clear that these accusations themselves are distant from ation as russia is not engaged in any decision from asian operations and such accusations are in effect dividing the global community and hampering relief efforts as well accusations against disinformation and thanks to corona virus spread in europe and the whole world are being disinformation and create themselves let's take a look at the presumption of innocence here is their occupations you know an avid institution out of that there can be any clean dashing you know it can be used as a part of such an aggressive informational can in fact u.s. leaders continue to hurl accusations such as donald trump continuing to refer to it as the chinese the virus in there and to claim that china is somehow responsible for the outbreak because they hid information or somehow engaged in behavior that hindered relief efforts now this is donald trump and the response to his words from

chinese officials if we had known about this a number of months earlier it could have been contained to that one area in china where it started and certainly the world is paying a big price for what they did in the world is paying a very big price would not. for not letting them come out everybody knows that. recently some u.s. officials have made insulting comments about china amidst the pandemic outbreak these comments know the correlate with the with the decisions of the world health organization. good strong rage among chinese people express condemnation the resoundingly demand of the global community seems to be for a united international effort to defeat covert 19 and to end the pandemic now it seems however countries continue to exchange these accusations and that international tensions haven't diffused despite the fact that there is such

a widespread call for united action to stop the pandemic. italy has recorded its highest a single day increase in deaths due to covert 1627 people passed away on friday bringing the total to more than 4000. the large scale loss of life has put a strain on funeral homes and one of the worst hit provinces some have said that they may not be able to take any more coffins of the to overpower. the obviously this situation creates an abnormal amount bringing us to an emergency phase making us very likely to hold for a few days in order to be able to recover some space. for us to use our premises dedicated for the final farewell as you can see this farewell room has become a provisional space. meanwhile as italy remains on lockdown soldiers are patrolling the empty streets of palermo in sicily they were deployed to help local police other cities and regions are also considering calling for army patrols. to an

infectious disease specialist says the lockdown needs to continue to prevent a full blown fantastic. epidemic it is a dramatic and we are facing a very big epidemic we should keep very strict measures. down in order to reduce the spreading the virus at the same extent that in the center. and in this one the pocket of it so you have to remember especially in the north there is a shortage of. such as a physician and nurses able to face of these that demi very few infectious disease expert to are available now with the and it is a whole sold the vet. has been called the new made the

not working optimistic view is a defective it day by day. constant person. of the new cases who the respect of the total number. target our goal is to reach as soon as possible ready the level below 10 which means that the transmission as a celebrated and we can look to the future with a little more hole. british prime minister boris johnson has ordered the closure of all pubs clubs and restaurants after people ignored official advice to stay at home it comes as the number of those infected with covered 1000 in is over 4000 with death standing at more than 180 and counting but we need agreement between all the formations of the united kingdom all the devolved ministrations we are quick to be telling tele cafes pubs and restaurants to

close to the right as soon as they reasonably can you care health officials are introducing new measures to cope with the pandemic with the health secretary using a wartime slogan. we are writing to have a 65000 nurses and doctors who recently come off the register recently retired or left the n.h.s. and saying that your country needs the n.h.s. and the n.h.s. needs you. in winter time doctors and nurses have asked former colleagues who have left in the last 3 years to reregister to help tackle what they call the world's greatest health threat in 100 years also final year medical students will be offered temporary paid jobs. there are enough trained who are who are experienced to do to deal with with the issue with coronavirus patients they're bringing in student nurses they're bringing in retired

nurses a lot of doctors and nurses were concerned that it wasn't. appropriate p p e e p s the protective equipment like mosques and surgical gowns and the base there is that cover you from droplets the protection that you have when you're dealing with queries isn't enough you're literally just hoping that you will test negative i mean these these tests come back 3 days $3.00 to $5.00 days is fair enough if they come back 2 hours 8 hours after they've been tested but the fact that we're not getting the appropriate p.p.a. and the government is addressing that and i'm hoping they do address it quickly because it's just been then going to encourage the spread of the disease if the nurses and doctors aren't protected and that would in further lower the staffing levels. rise of a health worker we just heard from there unfortunately also says that she was

assaulted and racially abused recently on her way to an overtime night shift. out of nowhere some man just elbows my rig and pushes me to the side and then the female partner came from the right hand side he then started screaming racial abuse saying at least where whites you effing see and code my nursing idea and i showed it said look i'm a nice we're now soon we're about to go into a shit growing up here with different different color. of the experience loads of different types of races and this fear and anxiety are causing people to look for someone to blame and the asian the asian. people are getting victimized come into work and people i hear the other day i was just standing in someone told me to go home but china take the coronavirus with me

definitely this this pandemic has. has it is definitely been instrumental in increasing the amount of racial abuse being. directed to the asian asian population. and while the government is busy with the n.h.s. and trying to stop people socialising boyko went to have a look at the u.k. supermarkets amid a wave of panic buying. things you only see. there's no trolleys. was. just the one lonely trolley welcome to travel. people are freaking out now. people queuing for bread. hearing for bridge. not funny any. one. section is pretty.

basic fish and chips anyone. and all the meat that you could not but something ever has become a carnival here i've been searching took. and now there's no meat and loads of vegan stuff on the shelves where's the bread. nothing. to do you know you don't know what you're looking for. nothing in the frozen food section. oh no wait there is something there is a massive queue for the checkout so i thought it would be a good idea to go to a chinese supermarket. i was wrong closed waiting to get in there one in one out don't want to believe them for the 1st ok one in 100 years old will not have time to do that on just about every month you know. why did you come here oh no did you think you would be small if you are believed to be

a. major car manufacturers have suspended production due to the corona virus pandemic. this is international. i'm going to fulfill the repeated promises apologise to the people and come on you know we've all pots. pretty. pretty good. now you want to work correct that.

ok link up my. welcome back this is r t international now france is under a nationwide lockdown and police have issued more than 4000 fines for those who break quarantine rules the number of coronavirus deaths in the country has jumped to 459 and as people continue to breach the lockdown the french government has

accused citizens of not taking the situation seriously enough. when i see people still going to the park to get together or heading to the beach or to open markets they seem not to understand the message from the authorities a lot of our fellow citizens are still taking this too likely there are people who think they're modern day heroes by breaking the rules while they are in fact e.d.'s . france went into a 15 day quarantine on tuesday people are only permitted to leave their homes for specific reasons for example buying basic necessities or helping a relative anyone caught leaving without a written explanation is fined 135 euros. before the lockdown took effect many persians packed their bags and fled into the countryside but many locals in the region are now afraid the virus will be brought right to their doors are. reports. for many parisians the idea of look down meant one thing only the holidays had

come early and with that and those that could vacated the city before the confinement began but as parisians deserted their city on mass at their destinations they weren't exactly being welcomed with open arms i understand that presents wanted to go to the countryside but our ecosystem is fragile we must be careful we hold the prisoners did not bring the virus read them is pressure since our hospitals here are small but regions who go to il durant despite being potentially contaminated do you think we have your hospitals no we have small hospitals which are overcrowded in normal times stop go into or 2nd homes to flee will your potential cure yours in some rural areas signs of appeared essentially accusing parisians of spreading the virus others are concerned that those scenes we've seen at supermarkets ransacked by desperate shoppers who are being food could

now be about to hit their communities some say that's already happened there are also concerns that if the forest does take hold in the regions health services will be overwhelmed and able to cope. there is clearly a risk of overcrowding for a local hospital we do not have an intensive care units and we have to evacuate patients to the mainland concerned about the influx of people trying to escape the city some of sorties have taken action in one part of brittany or rental accommodation has been banned or for islands until the end of march warnings have also been issued to parisians reminding them that they are not on holiday things may not be about to get any easier 15 days of confinement already felt like a lifetime to many fronts but it seems that they're going to have to buckle in for

an even longer journey the country's director general of public health has warned an extension will be very likely necessary. paris the world's biggest carmaker volkswagen is suspending production worldwide of the german company build more than 10000000 vehicles last year see decent explained the move given the present significant deterioration in the sales situation and the heightened uncertainty regarding parts supplies to our plants production is to be suspended in the near future factories operated by group bronze volkswagens decision followed similar moves by other car manufacturers toyota b.m.w. renault and others have shut their plant during the global crisis in the year alone the sector is responsible for around $14000000.00 jobs. pandemic is causing huge problems for the u.s. job market as well with the country's unemployment claims seeing one of the largest

spikes on record u.s. labor department has reported several 100000 claims filed forecasts are dire with some predicting there will be millions of jobless americans by next week. editorial director at the american institute for economic research jeffrey tucker says the global economy is facing increasing pressure by the day. this is a the kind of decision of that the private sector has to make amends to some extent also the responding to demands to is for social doesn't see in and there's a lot of public pressure public sector pressure on private companies just to shut down which is and many ways tragic and i think there's going to be a lot of things to discuss after all this is over about who called for these shutdowns and why and to the extent to which there was actually in a kind of a rational calculation between the health risk and the obvious catastrophic

economic costs of what's taken place in the world economy right now the pressure is growing by is a day by the hour by the minute for for the politicians to line up their decisions public policy decisions with the actual documented health risks as israel battles the spread of covert 1000 with more than $700.00 cases registered the country's caretaker prime minister and his party have been accused of using the crisis to hold on to power after inconclusive elections while hundreds protested the anti outbreak measures imposed a despite a ban on mass gatherings. people were carrying black flags as a symbol of war a black day for democracy for protestors were detained by police after near the parliament building by shutting down the court system netanyahu has effectively postponed his own corruption trial parliamentary proceedings have also been

suspended which opponents say stops them from pushing forward legislation against the prime minister netanyahu is also under fire from valence activists for approving emergency spy powers to stop the corona virus spread. prime minister says the moves are essential to deal with the pandemic but opposition groups and analysts warn they are undemocratic we need to be very careful not to even approach the margins of dictatorship. the 1st coronavirus dictatorship netanyahu lost the elections so under the pretext of fighting karuna he's closed the israeli parliament ordered people to stay in their homes and this issue in whatever emergency decrees he wishes this is called a dictatorship. that last tweet has angered netanyahu son who lashed out at the israeli historian we asked to get in levy a columnist at israel's harrods newspaper if netanyahu is indeed gaining political benefit from the spread of the pandemic in

a country. that he always menage in this crisis is in quite a reasonable way try would show if these were the right measures in the same time he benefits a lot politically and he does anything possible to benefit as much as possible from this crisis 1st of all because spreading fears is a 2nd name and secondly because he as i said before seems to handle it and many people want to see him right now at the prime minister's office at least until this this crisis would be over and ought to lead to someone who has no experience and was never prime minister was never a minister running this crisis so he gets a lot out of it no doubt. i know just for me this i'll be back on top now with another look at your news this is arch international stay with us.
