i was trying to. recall right now you're a. hello there i'm manila chan you're watching in question broadcasting live from our team american national headquarters in washington d.c. we want to welcome our viewers from all around the world watching right now let's head to our top story that's code 19 of course and it's constant ripple effects around the nation and the world the total number of infections worldwide now topping over 370000 with about $16000.00 deaths today china still leading the way with 81000 cases followed by italy hovering at about 59000 and the u.s. rounding off the top 3 at 42000 cases now taking a closer look at this nation with reported deaths hovering at about 550 cases now

in an effort to fight those rising numbers here in this country the u.s. national guard has been activated to 3 of the hardest hit states new york california and washington state now almost half of the u.s. cases about 20000 of them are all in new york state alone now several states have issued a stay at home orders for its residents with some even ordering non-essential businesses to shut their doors this means stay at home and avoid going out as much as possible unless it's absolutely essential now current restrictions include the 3 biggest cities in the country new york city los angeles and chicago now overall the policy is going to affect millions of people so here in the nation's capital republicans and democrats all clashing in the senate as the coronavirus rescue bill fell short of the votes needed to advance on sunday night they're back at it today debating on that bill while debating the bill president trump and the. coronavirus task force

team gave their daily briefing where they emphasized america will not remain on lockdown and looks forward to getting society back to running as usual take a listen we also have a large team work you know and what the next steps will be once the medical community gives the region the ok meaning the ok to get going to get back let's go to work our country wasn't built to be shut down this is not a country that was built for this it was not built to be shut down. my administration continues to work with democrats and republicans to reach an agreement on an urgent relief bill for the millions of american workers and small businesses and large businesses that were badly affected by the medical difficulty that we've had. our fair and fronsac join me a little earlier here's our discussion. he actually signed an executive order that prevents hoarding and any price gouging of supplies you need to fight this virus

also there has been an about face with trump actually monella who last week called himself a quote wartime president against an invisible enemy that was one of the things now trump seems open to standing down some of the stricter guidelines like social distancing staying the cure can actually be saying that the cure can't be worse than the disease now this is trump is being bombarded right now by projections of up to 30 percent unemployment rates while the economic growth rates are dropping by 30 percent but task force aides say that trump hasn't made a final decision yet on lifting those social distancing guidelines because health experts right now are saying that they are still needed manila so all this while you know all this going on you have the senate voted down again corona virus relief bill any word yet if if something can get through soon so earlier today the 2 to really. in dollar economic rescue package it failed again $4947.00 this after it

failed to get the vote sunday night because it was at a standstill $47.00 to $47.00 was that vote now congress has had time to work this out because this bill was actually introduced by senate majority leader mitch mcconnell last thursday but you can see that now there has been a wrench thrown into the mix because you have house speaker nancy pelosi and her fellow democrats they've released a counterproposal that's more than a 1000 pages long so some fun reading there they're calling this the take responsibility for workers and families that now pull his is the current senate bill drafted by republicans puts corporations 1st not workers and families but some elements in this new bill already exist in that bill that the senate is still trying to work out so in this new democratic bill corporations would not be allowed to use any taxpayer money for stock buybacks it would boost unemployment insurance strengthen child tax and earned income tax credits and inject $40000000000.00 into schools and universities now it would it would direct payments of 12 $100.00 this

is looking at the republican bill now $1200.00 to each and every american $500.00 for each child $350000000000.00 towards small businesses which would push billions toward hospitals in the unemployment insurance system along with a $500000000000.00 program for businesses states and cities now democrats say that this $1.00 trillion dollars rescue package that doesn't go far enough to get health care and unemployment aid to americans and it gives a $500000000000.00 quote slush fund for corporations when that money they say should go to hospitals medical workers and supplies however republicans say the economy needs to be revived otherwise it could just send the u.s. into a massive depression that could be impossible to get out of so one of the reasons that actually this bill fell short sunday night is you actually had 5 republicans you know that were not present because of self quarantine which now has posed the question should senators be able to vote remotely well president trump says that he sees no problem with it as long as it's a certain amount of time until we finally get out of this corona. virus crisis.

now what about what's what's going forward i mean we know that some of the people quarantine for example was rand paul right. did that obviously that probably impacted the vote and i think a lot of people also want to know. if he was asymptomatic why was he tested so here is one of the things that i actually forgot to mention too with this new bill a lot of people are saying that this is actually a big power move brought forth by speaker pelosi to get something done. but when it comes to rand paul a lot of people are saying that you know why wasn't he tested and he's actually facing a lot of backlash especially on twitter you know he was tested because they said that to believe that a lot of people that he was in contact with might have tested positive as well one of those people who was actually just tested him along and his wife vice president mike punts who tested negative but they want to have tested rand paul and it's one of those things where they're saying that why is it that is that a congress to be

a senator can write a test with his showing no symptoms whatsoever but you know you had a dad who was like new york my daughter has 104 degree fever and i can't get her a test it was a lot of backlash is exactly the anger coming from the american public towards politicians on capitol hill so are there any similar to similarities rather between what's coming out of the democrats and the republicans yes so one of the things is actually the amount of money that each of american would get it's just one of the things that's in both of these bills but again it's all about the age old argument between democrats or republicans corporations versus people so you have regrets republicans trying to also throw some last minute stuff in these bills to try to get them you know pass through knowing that they haven't passed before so it's a tit for tat here ok real quick bottom line are people going to get checks and when can they get it so actually most americans again would get at least a $1000.00 but they're still talking about different brackets for example if you make less than. $65000.00 or $75000.00 but u.s.

treasury secretary steve he says that his department would be responsible for either sending out the checks via mail or direct deposit if hypothetically let's say a bill gets passed within that least this week americans could actually see money starting april 6th well all right so we'll see how that goes very project thank you for following this very complicated issue right now. our while the impact of the crowd of virus is being felt across the country it has left a wave of uncertainty here in the nation's capital where businesses have been forced to close and across the country unemployment numbers have skyrocketed rachel blevins continues our coverage on code 19 with this report. as the united states prepares for the worst of the coronavirus hundreds of thousands of businesses have been closed and boarded up like this one behind me resulting in massive job loss that experts warn will have a devastating impact on the u.s. economy while residents are ordered to stay home and practice social distancing at

all costs the increasing list of business closures and layoffs are coming. to the u.s. economy from popular clothing store famous restaurants to the store the national push to halt all gatherings of more than 10 and a boarded up businesses here in the nation's capital are a reflection of what is happening across the country with stocks falling and unemployment numbers skyrocketing in response to the latest calls to the economy the president of the st louis federal reserve is warning that national unemployment could hit 30 percent higher than it was during the great depression and 3 times more than the 20072009 recession experts are now warning the shutdown from the coronavirus could cause a layoff like the united states has never seen before they note that while the worst month for job losses during the financial crisis was 800000 in march 2009 forecasts for april 2020 range from 500-0025 1000000 while cities are. the u.s.

are moving to protect residents by expanding billeted for unemployment insurance offering financial assistance for businesses and stopping evictions and utilities cut off many americans of war not really enough that they face life without a paycheck and have 2 kids oh my god take care of him feed him and get through this we don't know how long when you have no idea how long that will be how can you predict if you will make it shelter in place orders are being put in place across the nation from philadelphia to dallas here in washington d.c. the attorney general shared his support for the move and said he believes it would reduce the spread of coronavirus and keep residents safe but with millions of americans staying home is the closure of all non-essential businesses implemented to combat the impact of the coronavirus many worry that its impact on the economy is only just beginning reporting in washington rachel. and florida is among the states being hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic as the cases there

continue to grow american made relies a lot on tourism some are criticizing the state's governor for not doing enough to stop the spread r.t. correspondent john hardy has the latest for us from miami. well the case is here in florida as we continue to increase sharply that's the bottom line to give you an example last week milling around this time there were roughly about 150 cases of confirmed cases of corona virus here in the state of florida well today right now at this moment as we speak the state is reporting 1171 confirmed cases that number continues to grow and one number that i keep looking at very closely are the number of pending tests and there are more than 500 at this point more testing is being done slowly but more of the drive through testing locations have been set up particularly here in south florida so as that continues expected that the numbers are going to continue to increase dramatically. last week the city of

miami and miami dade county basically shut down all non-essential government operations and then the order was given for all non-essential businesses to close we're talking about bars nightclubs also the city and county parks and beaches have all been shut down that basically happened throughout last week from about tuesday on now the restaurants that do remain open are open only for takeout and or delivery you're not seeing anybody going in and sitting down having having drinks and having cocktails or having dinner in the restaurants that is not happening here one of the problems in miami and basically throughout florida particularly central and northern florida has been keeping people basically has been getting them to self isolate keeping them off the beaches out of the parks. basically and self isolation some parks particularly here in south florida in the miami area have been crowded over the weekend we really saw that a lot of parks as crowded as i've ever been walking paths in many areas especially

overrun with teams of joggers and people you know even out there with personal trainers people doing yoga that kind of thing there was also the controversy of course speaking of last week and the video that went viral of all those spring breakers in south beach basically partying away with some defiantly saying that they continue to party regardless of the coronavirus well miami dade county tried to basically put an end to that by shutting down the bars and nightclubs and ultimately the beaches throughout the county though some say that wasn't done quick enough and it should have been done a lot sooner there's also controversy here over the weekend mill about the party boats and yachts still taking groups of people out on biscayne bay i saw a numerous ones on saturday doing exactly that also to one popular sand bar off my beach that was essentially packed with people partying in some areas shoulder to shoulder in response the mayor of miami dade county closed their. marinas and boat

ramps to try to stop that from continuing florida governor rhonda santa has not issued a state wide order closing the beaches instead essentially leaving up to the various cities and counties even today he said he doesn't think a mandatory shelter in place policy would be good for the state one thing he did do though and this just came out a short time ago is that he's basically saying if anyone is traveling from new york to florida then they will be required to have a mandatory 14 day self quarantine ok so that order was just put through. at this point though as far as not basically giving the order to close all the beaches taking a lot of heat for that he continues to was at this point one lawsuit being filed against governor to santos demanding that he close all the beaches and that it wasn't done soon enough but so far miami dade broward and palm beach counties here in south florida have all essentially shut down today

a group of more than 75 emergency room doctors nurses and physicians physicians assistants here in the miami dade area issued an open letter to the residents of miami dade county policing with them to stop going out to stop going to the parks to stop going out and basically fraternizing and basically dismissing the threat of this disease saying that this testing ramps up quote the number of confirmed cases will explode it is a dangerous threat to all of us and quote i know about to just mind blowing john that people are just disregarding all of this john how do you live for us in miami thank you. next more covert $1000.00 coverage from 2 of the hardest hit states in the country a full report coming up and then later at the 4th h.q. regina hamm highlights the wild grand final in australia top women will be right back.
