4:02 am
production themselves the hope is that they'll be able to return help back to russia if it's needed later on let's go live to a correspondent egos down on the central moscow tell us what is a there morning and what's russia saying about this is systems well kevin essentially russia is following its own pattern of helping those countries that have been had by this covert 19 pandemic the worst the united states being the world's sadly leader in the number of cases is certainly falling into this category this particularly with this particular batch of help. was pre-agreed of by lattimer putin and donald trump as the 2 presidents spoke over the phone this tuesday and within 24 hours russian military jets were and route to the united states carrying medical masks and necessary medical equipment and now russia is essentially saying is sending the message here that the whole world is in this pandemic together and each country should be able to be helping out other countries to the extent that it
4:03 am
can that it can afford to here's what russia what the russian president's spokesman has said about this. when the existing situation affects everyone without exception and is global in character there is no alternative but to act together in the spirit of partnership and mutual assistance so the question is the situation in the u.s. so serious that russia's selling equipment that it might need itself a bit further down the line. absolutely both countries are of course suffering from this pandemic but the scale so far at least is absolutely in compare. able in the united states the total number of cases is rapidly reaching 200000 people for instance more than 4000 lives have been claimed already by covert 19 on the territory of the united states and medics on the ground have been reporting an alarming shortage of the very necessary medical equipment necessary meaning for

them to efficiently fight this disease they have been under staffed they have been working long hours the u.s. military even had to use 2 of its hospital warships to help our would deal with this pandemic with a number of cases experts are also saying that by most optimistic projections the pandemic can claim more than 200000 lives in the united states and pessimists well they put these numbers in the millions so any bit of help any bit of aid that the united states can receive it is obviously mad welcome but is welcomed. i have to say we've had great relationships with a lot of countries. china centers some stuff which was terrific russia said as a very very large plane load of things medical equipment which was very nice
4:05 am
other countries. that i was very surprised that very happily surprised we learned a lot we're learning a lot so essentially the united states are counting right now on foreign aid to be able to officially contain the covert 19 pandemic while russia is saying again that it expects reciprocity and if and when more like when united states manufacturers step up their own production when they become self-sufficient russia is counts on reciprocity from washington that if need be if need be and washington helps out more school when count when time comes he goes down a few central moscow things the up though. other news today the chief doctor at russia's main hospital treating code 19 patients has tested positive in self denys prod sankoh is widely seen as the public face of the country's containment strategy against infections the hospital where he works is in moscow and is currently

suspending the procedure to preserve 'd medical supplies while over in washington state and even the pandemic epicenter of new york abortion clinics are continuing to operate as an essential service of campaigners say the judge's intervention sets a dangerous president. it is devastating to see ephedra will judge ruled that abortion is more important than public safety it sets a dangerous precedent killing unborn children is the legal genocide that is still deemed necessary and essential during a deadly global pandemic we found an obstetrician gynecologist dr margaret and also women's rights advocate resurfacing. what we're trying to do with the corn scene is of course iceland people so we don't have viral spread. any physical or human contact that we have of course exponentially increases the press or viral spread so that governments or limit seeing all 'd connections to just very essential
4:20 am
services that are life and who are necessary for life. abortions really not one of those it's more of a convenience issue something that is more related to. choice rather than something that is essential for life or death the fact of the matter is that in the united states of america women have the right to obtain an abortion and tell we decide that that is no longer the law of land in that state and with that being the case to say that an abortion is a luxury or a choice is that quite accurate something like plastic surgery or something like an elective procedure where you can you know do something to how you look that's a choice whereas a woman choosing to or not carry a child is essentially within her right a constitutional right and it's a medical procedure that has a very thin timeframe in which she needs to happen it's not just in the united

4:22 am
a very dangerous place because the pm to make a century could be used to you start our constitutional rights in pretty much any other arena so we have to be very careful as a people that we don't allow this pretext to use to kind of infect the rest of our our everyday lives in our rights we're using all this person of the footman for no necessary or unnecessary or an essential. procedures when we meet them on the front lines i have one mess one in the mess that i've been using over and over and over and over 2 weeks and that's all i have for the next month. while abortionists are going through these several you know also several 1000 for a week while those of us who are truly being affected by this virus need. other news lines world economies continue to take a hammer course to in the pandemic slowdown millions are out of work and struggling
