and was all they were going to come out you see officers going undercover as 6 workers and customers to fight 6 trade. drones are deployed to enforce a law down in the united kingdom's police there are given extra powers to contain the spread of covert 90. governments around the world use mass surveillance to restrict the movement of citizens we find out whether george orwell's 1904 might be becoming reality. millions of white collar employees doing their jobs from home an option the blue collar workers don't have delivery services in europe say their staff are being put at risk. registers its 4th deaths from the novel coronavirus says the government puts tougher measures

into place we hear from the russian pediatric surgeon and w.h.o. advisor. for me this is a test a few manatee already we are for wind damage the most important lesson for us is to rebuild the health care system. global news headlines right around the clock this is r.t. and. let's start with the latest overview of the kovac 900 pandemic the number of confirmed cases worldwide is now 614000 that is a rise of 20 percent over the past 24 hours the virus has claimed 28000 lives and so far 137000 people have recovered.

we go 1st to the united kingdom where the government there has been ramping up its coronavirus containment measures police have been given new powers and they're deploying drones to ensure the citizens stick to the rules and stay at home. and coming up now is a video message posted by police in the county of darby ship it urges people to avoid all nonessential movement including walking the dog in the pig district or going for a long hike instagram as have been singled out they're told not to go out of their way to get a good selfie as governments around the world come up with new ways of fighting the pandemic there are fears things might never go back to normal. because the of takes

a look at how the global lockdown could change our lives. this pandemic will and already it is changing us society i do mean the economy or social distancing i mean privacy freedoms these are now a danger to our health this isn't about judgment condemnation or endorsement this is a global health crisis many lives are at stake and desperate times call for desperate measures but look and see what's happening before our very own eyes troops and armored vehicles on the streets of western cities drools patrolling cities and ordering civilians to return to their homes. ah ah ah ah ah

ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah nationwide look downs police and troops detaining civilians for violating curfews a lot in the middle east or china but in europe and italy alone more than $100000.00 people have been charged for violating the law down droom small of the citizens from above where they walk their dogs where they park where they congregate robots. patrolled streets governments attending neighbors and friends and family to report each other if they find out someone violated quarantine we have created an online report in porto where people can submit a form to advise of and a gathering that are not in it here is with the guidance and easy to demand on one on one all of this was completely unimaginable

a few months ago but it's all about. stopping the virus at whatever cost in the fight against this sanitary crisis it is paramount that we anticipate the spread of the pandemic and its likely peak in each country in israel they started tracking people's movements with their phones to catch those violating quarantine or to warn people who have been someone who was infected in america in europe in russia they're talking about doing the same thing mobile phones have been turned into tracking devices for our own good they say it's hard to argue with that and personally for the duration of the crisis i don't mind my question isn't when this will end the total control my question is will it head and the european data protection supervisor of stresses that such developments usually do not

contain the possibility to step back when the emergencies go home how often the government or police give up powers you don't need me to answer that you know full well yourself we're all afraid we're all confused and worried for our loved ones fear has gripped world our society because of that we have given up without complaint our freedoms to our governments for our own good i'm not here to judge i'm only stating the obvious with the hope that when this nightmare is over and that fear passes will get our freedoms back. italy has recorded almost a 1000 covert 900 deaths in just a single day that's the highest figure since the start of the outbreak hospitals are under a huge strain as admissions continue to soar an intensive care unit in the northern italian city of bresh is now running 5 times capacity we heard from

a doctor there who said that the medics are having to improvise to save lives. or hospitals at the forefront of many aspects of treatment and intensive therapy we have suddenly found ourselves having to invent new treatments and use new machinery that we would have never used in normal condition about 2 thirds of the patients spend a long period in intensive care. the number of beds has to be consciously increased because there are always more people coming in than being discharged i spent 13 to 14 hours a day here at the hospital my colleagues have tripled their duties and are working night shifts to cope with the influx of patients. with this new reality of self isolation millions of white collar workers get to do their jobs remotely but for most blue collar workers that's simply not an option that includes delivery services and unions in europe of raise concerns about the safety of the staff correspondent in paris charlotte dubin ski explains. just

a few weeks ago they were deemed unskilled workers i'm talking about the people who stack supermarket shelves or deliver our groceries books clothes and gadgets now as coded 900 forces us to hunker down in our homes they have become alongside health professionals some of the most essential workers of our time without those people we wouldn't be able to run as a nation we wouldn't have an economy and people won't be able to cook food on the table we just various clutches to issue. new roles at school and roles we've always done. in getting these products out. just like doctors and nurses who are fighting a war against this virus delivery drivers are also putting themselves on the front

line and potentially at risk of be lying if i wasn't if i was saying that it wasn't panic especially with everything else in the media well we've obviously implemented a lot of protective measures and social distancing to make sure that they're not as much with us and that was so many minds as these new key workers are ensuring essential and a non essential deliveries many of those who once considered important stuck at home either an able to be economically active or at best working remotely the french and british governments are amongst those that have offered to cover a significant proportion of the wages for people who caused to be in their place of work during the lockdown unions warned that this led to a feeling of inequality. there is an impression of an equality between blue and

white collar workers. truck drivers delivery and postal workers those in trade and management many employees are in the front line mostly women and the working class and like the executives who shuddered when they didn't leave for their holiday homes this is causing more and more anger there's also concern that remote work is only possible if you're a so-called white collar worker so if you tend ball work as a salesperson in a closed shop it's pretty impossible right now to continue that type of employment now these roles are often based on short term always 0 hours contracts meaning employers don't have to keep the morning when they need to tighten their belts the current crisis is perhaps only highlighting this divine right and if in the coming months old world starts to return to some semblance of what we need let's not forget that in our time of need it was the low pay the manual workers that we were

low end on and without the heroes delivering all good so keeping our supermarket shelves stocked we would have been lost. for our tea in paris. we go reaction to the story from political commentator clips member r.t. and market analyst craig. greely is attest to to our enemies and through our way we're seeing how this in the next few months this is an obviously our president the situation room and we are facing like this for a long long time it's the whole chain of business which is really really vulnerable to these kinds of shocks and the longer they become i don't find us i've gotten better at it because the fundamental way working means to go on same way and hopefully governments can come together to support their their citizens for the next few months years and right now through this pandemic what we're seeing is one

of the benefits of being a white collar worker is that in many cases and that's not all cases but in many cases the ability to work from home is much easier than maybe even the offices previously envisaged we have now that we've been forced into the situation what we're learning the more i think what to continue to learn over the coming weeks is one shot the infrastructure in place at home and now many people will have the infrastructure in place it's actually much more simple than what we previously envisaged. here in russia for corona virus patient has died and there are $1200.00 confirmed cases but there is also calls for optimism the world health organization is agreed with the russian government's estimate the outbreak will start to subside in may help contain the spread of the virus starting from today restaurants cafes and shops are closing their doors early supermarkets and pharmacies will remain open food and other deliveries are still permitted though public parks also have

been closed president putin earlier announced a week long paid holiday the nonessential work is starting from monday new facilities under construction in the russian city of nizhny novgorod officials say that it will be ready in less than a month to cope with a possible influx of coronavirus patients 16 similar hospitals are being built across the country the government has already allocated equipment and supplies to each one we discuss the pandemic and russia's response with the learned he's the country's top pediatric surgeon and an expert at the world health organization dr rochelle told us this crisis is a test for humanity. humanity has endured other terrible epidemics of the plague and cholera before this one we've had 3 other types of corona virus this is another one and will not last forever this is a new virus it will also pass but with more losses is the question. all.

the hype the fear mongering for russia and for size is not very relevant the situation in russia is not so tragic the media will not be able to ask the cas to russian i support the measures if you quarantine was imposed factories in transport would stop and this would cause a collapse that is worse than the virus. that is good that you know i'm not a fortune teller in a best case 2 or 3 months. for me this is a test a few manity how ready we are for up and dammit if i were an examiner looking at what is happening in need to leave spain and other countries i would give a c.

minus great the most important lesson for us is to rebuild the health care system we must be prepared for serious disasters we must be prepared for serious pandemics we must be prepared for serious terrorist attacks we must be prepared for everything and above all our health care system must be prepared. for us as health system is currently coping in this not as overstretched as those in some countries frontline medics are working around the clock to keep the virus at by including one of moscow's main airports where 2 brothers decided to show that appreciation. it was him who decided to volunteer and give free coffee to all medical stuff in

the airport workers who are in the vanguard of the fight against the corona virus in these countries our idea is to help with all that we have we can make coffee so it's not difficult for us to do those tackling the virus. national day of things that we don't have any medical education so we can help them treat people the only thing we can do is make coffee and give some sweets to help them through this tough time the ultimate idea is that if we can help theoretically anyone can too. because in the united states of being accused of stockpiling medication for themselves and for their families and bring you that story after the break.

the problem with having too many claims of gold is really hitting the markets in a serious way people want their gold now because they realize that the money world is collapsing and then they go to get their gold and these exchanges well. b.m.a. are saying no we don't have the gold actually. here and so that's causing people to they want their gold even more than all the countries that have repatriated their gold ever since we told germany that they don't even have the gold on their own soil then they repatriated their gold now everyone wants to repatriate they want their gold back and style the physical price of gold is now zooming higher and the paper price soon will become a meaningless price. the atlantic

and i do 5 masks we've talked so much about over the past few weeks surgical gloves and of course ventilators among other things running out in fact as we've seen and continue to hear about medical professionals from florida to new york new york to california expressing their frustration about not having enough p.p.s. the gallons the gloves the facemask the ventilators will eventually run out as they continue to be besieged by new coronavirus cases there's been the contention between the governors of various states and president trump and other federal officials about adequate supplies being delivered by the federal government to the various states or or that are available as of now based in the years as someone who is a confirmed orders for millions of pieces of gear evaporate in front of us and i can't tell you how frustrating it is you know we know other orders that are

outstanding. are probably quote unquote confirmed but we've literally got to the point where the basic position is until the until the thing shows up here in the can almost a mess that doesn't exist. but i'm telling you people are spending hours and hours and hours trying to get this stuff here in new york there really seems to be at this point as far as this overall issue disconnect between governor cuomo sconce yesterday during his press availability that the state's hospitals are now stocked up on p.p.s. and the head of new york state nursing association basically the union representing all the nurses and says that the governor is wrong that nurses are having a really is their equipment because of the ongoing shortages so while that debate continues so does this ongoing fight for more ventilators. some doctors in the u.s. have reportedly started stockpiling medication for themselves and for their families that's according to pharmacy regulators in several states the new

restrictions are being imposed on just how much medication one person can buy we heard from 2 pharmacy board members about the crisis initials groups the pharmacists reported to us were filled for large quantities that the report was the prescriptions were written for 180 tablets with 6 refills for the physicians and members of their families or a pharmacy promulgated a new rule. pharmacists from dispensing more there a 14 day supply we just wanted to. tell the pharmacies what they you know give guidance to them for dispensing the medication so that there would not be shortages for patients who are being treated for things like lupus and rheumatoid arthritis and that needed to medication. there is now a huge demand for drugs that are considered possible treatments for covert 9 of course none of them have been officially approved for that purpose the commonly

used to treat malaria lupus and other such diseases the pharmacy board members again say that hoarding of drugs could cost patients' lives. they can't presume what the doctors are thinking but certainly the article that came out that the drug has shown some promise with the treatment and maybe perhaps even with profile access the pope at 19 verus i think is what informing their decisions if they're being prescribing these in large quantities and dispensed that way it could certainly have an impact on on other patients as well it could also impact if there is proving to be that it is a treatment. well the coronavirus pandemic is now starting to hate take hold in the palestinian territories and doctors in garza are warning of an impending catastrophe with health services that really quick to cope after years of living under the israeli blockade all asleep explains. i'm standing at the checkpoint

between jerusalem and the occupied west bank city of bethlehem every day until recently thousands of crowds would queue here the large crowds the poor ventilation was the perfect opportunity for the coronavirus to sprayed the israeli army is now closing or checkpoints and at the same time it's tossed the police with trying to stop the spread of the virus however in the case of gaza people they will find themselves trapped in a dainty populated strip with a fragile health care system which according to the united nations has been crumbling away before the pandemic of the last 3 in the gaza and the west bank are fragile areas do the continue siege there has been deteriorating all our medical capabilities for the 14th year in a row it's meant the gaza strip has lost all its basic facilities which provide health and human interior here and that's the condition and which today we're facing this virus won't be able to fight this problem if we don't receive

significant need for the health sector especially medical supplies and i.c.u. things sunni's the world health organization which visited gaza this week also gave its verdict the strips failing health care system will not be able to deal with a pandemic or law. even superpowers couldn't control these wires not to mention the high density of population here which can lead to a severe escalation of the pandemic so. the situation here now is harder than any war we had before we've witnessed 3 of them but this scenario is definitely worse. we ask all concerned countries to show a bit of humanity and stand with us we don't have enough money to buy those masks we buy only one per day and even this not everybody can afford most people can only buy food and most of the youth are unemployed despite this so far as he's in gaza are trying to be prepared for whatever is coming they are building a common team saying. to host up to 500 people while

a shoe factory in the west bank has now switched to making medical masks it's reportedly the only place in the area that produces the vital protection israel also apparently understands the severity of the problem is they will deliberate hundreds of medical kits to enabling observation of the virus also there are joint tutorials and professional medical workshops participated both by israeli and palestinian medical staff where they are given the knowledge regarding the virus and proper tools and dealing with it but with a population of more than 2000000 people it's clearly not enough and guard service calling for the united nations and international community to provide it with urgent aid to battle the crisis in 2013 the american pluck bester world war z. it predicted that a common enemy a zombie plague would force israelis and palestinians to unite and in the decades long conflict it remains to be seen with a covered 19 can do the same. r

t m checkpoint we asked the israeli authorities to comment on the situation we're still awaiting their response meanwhile journalist gideon levy says that israelis are now getting a taste of what life has been like for the palestinians for many years israel is heard about their reality of curfew all heard about the reality in which people move from one place to the other heard about petro a bet or soft soldiers and policemen in villages in streets in cities but they've never experienced it and now all of a sudden it's becoming a reality in our hometowns in our cities in our villages what we are doing to the palestinians for over 50 years now is becoming grid you're really our reality it is the un comparable because what they face in routine.

100 times worse than what we are now facing in our closure but i hope that some israelis will make the admin of g. and remember that we are doing it for so many years the palestinians maybe now we understand a little bit more about their situation but she's staying with us a watching our to international updates coming your way in. which. i can't show you my face but i'm going to teach you must door in 9093 this man was sentenced to death. they can charge keep it's capital murder even though he didn't

have the gun didn't pull the trigger didn't intend to kill anybody imagine living in your bathroom for that week with the scent of a 23. i doubt that abu. dhabi. you have. confined within 4 gray walls he fights using. turn on to help him to leave this room. i have max keiser this is the kaiser report this is day 29 walk down that's right we've been here in this very location for 29 days and so far you know we've been both it's a tragedy but it's also very interesting because so much of what we've said over

the past 10 years and if you go back to shows we've done even before the kaiser report to go back 15 years so much of what we've been talking about for so long is now coming to the to the to the surface it's it's happening and so stacy talked to me a little bit about this one of the constants throughout all of our episodes of all of our various programs has been mention of my hair so just so you know in case my hair is not perfect as it usually is this is because we did not have anybody to look at me from behind until the edit situation or anything i think i have a comment on the go ahead and put the comment because this is very poor it's your show you're the man in the photo i think if if the concern is for hair i think the top and the pants are going to become louder as a way to distract attention from the air but i've been observing women for a very very long time and that was my my observation i could be wrong now we'll

move into the serious side of the program because we have to cover the fact that we have a global pandemic everybody is on lockdown max and i have been on lockdown since for 29 days many people are just in lockdown for the last 2 days or so so we have many many weeks apparently ahead to go and what we have noticed is a theme that we cover all the time on this show is that there is always a banker always a c.e.o. or always a corporation ready to plunder whatever even in the good times but in the bad times especially so we're. seeing this passage of this. dollar we don't know how many trillions actually we'll find out later some time remember back in 2008 when we 1st started recording it was like we want tarp 700000000000 dollars you know now it's like trillions and you're like ok whatever nobody could even make sense of it now i want to look back to this tweet somebody sent which was reminding us of during the 2008 crisis when we have the oracle on b.b.c. this is my earliest memory of max thrown.
