you know i think for us. we've been able to a lot of a lot of the stress writers are quite happy they know what's out there i believe been able to go about their daily lives and a very normal way it has ruined this little of all. 3 weeks children have been home schooled or accessed where possible online lessons the advice is being to stay at home to socially distance when carrying out the central errands now that is shifting and francis easing controls and many people are feeling timid about returning to the post covariate 19 wilt i didn't even walk down the block during confinement we're fortunate enough to have a garden and i don't think so i was able to go out in. get some air and

occasionally get a bit of shopping right on my street so to then be told you're can go all the way or. that means everyone not. me. you know from one case to the other every one's going imagine. all the shops open up again and so there has been a sense of concern on our in that you know all of the russians are put into place in order to control the spread of the virus. that it would be hard to continue. in level when everyone is moving about. parents aunts obliged to send children back to school and even if all wanted to go back under the new rules that just wouldn't be possible right now there are limited spaces available with

only 15 peoples in a class or 10 for nurseries and the priority is being given to children whose parents are essential workers schools will also look and feel very different with hand gel in place regular handwashing desks pulled apart children will also have to socially distance and teachers will be wearing masks in parts of france concern has led to some as even refusing for schools to be reopened in a letter to parents of a school and see just north of paris the mayor described the government's guidelines as being in forcible although i'm for the ramones of our economy i am certain that public health must remain our priority as the economy restarts and people are expected to return back to work more and more parents may feel as if they are stuck between a rock and a hard place do they choose to send that you. back to the classrooms where they may

pick up the virus and bring it back home or stay home and potentially put their jobs on the line so it's even ski. paris. come in the news hour a french drug giant comes under pressure not just from the country's government but also its people to a prioritized giving a coronavirus vaccine to the united states because it had funded research. the 1st child diagnosed with an unknown code 9000 linked inflammatory disease has died in france the 9 year old boy died of my car died at a hospital in the mass say that specializes in treating rare illnesses cases of the syndrome are being increasingly recorded worldwide the conditions thought to be caused by a delayed immune response to corona virus at least in a spike of cases of the new ailment or more than 100 children are being hit with the condition in the u.s. 15 states there have now launched an investigation into the mysterious illness.

new condition has a number of symptoms including blood inflammation and can also affect the heart and shares many similarities with the cow or saqi disease in terms of patients suffering from fever rash abdominal pain and vomiting new york state governor said health care workers believe not only can covert 900 provoke the condition but the symptoms themselves can indicate the patient is suffering from the virus as well we've lost 3 children 5 year old boys 7 year old boy unity year old girl this is a truly disturbing situation department of health that is telling hospitals and medical providers to prioritize testing for the called the virus for any children they are demonstrating the symptoms lottie's video agency ruptly spoke to the mother of a child struck down by the condition but who later recovered. 200. and

he still couldn't keep anything down he was complaining about major pain in his belly and said. he didn't touch it anything like that so his dad called the doctor and they said they struck so he had a strong in rochester and they did a good test there is a big test back within a couple hours and it came back positive and they were concerned about his heart which will be getting excessively fast and his hydration on its ear the doctors saying it would the ways hydration everything was they were only giving him another 28224248 hours or if he will last we get medical help there don't challenge all 1st fever and they gave him an i b a g to help because it means it's almost basically overreacting is where they put it so it helps calm everything down and he was in the bit you were in a saturday would say he was able to keep anything down far as just

a lancaster university dr mohammed veneer says with school slowly coming back on line children need to be watched carefully. okazaki disease it's not yet known how it is triggered but it is certainly known that it is caused by an auto immune response to any and he didn't so there are few chances that whatever whenever. he has an activity that he could be more prone to our community action may call a virus that the body over react with the infection however the impact of going to virus onto the auto immune infection similar to collar stock you still need to be explored if we look on to that out now there are very small proportion of the children who are observed having this kind of condition so therefore the impact on the global scale doesn't seems to be that high but this is certainly something that needs to be watched really closely especially in different governments are planning to open the schools and if that would be the condition of your children are very

likely to develop a saki like in syndrome and then having chances to get infected cornum others might add to it that this is certainly something we need to be watching very carefully. or is johnson has been asked to account for unexplained care home deaths in the u.k. last month the prime minister's been put under pressure by the leader of the opposition . the ins records the average number of deaths in care homes each month for the last 5 years the average for april has been just over $8000.00. this year the number of deaths in care homes for april was a staggering 26000 that's 3 times the average 18000 additional deaths this april. using the government's figures only 8000 are recorded just covert deaths that leaves 10000 additional and unexplained care home deaths

this april huge at the size in testing is going on a further 600000000 pounds i can announce today for infection control in homes and yes it is absolutely true that the number of casualties has been too high but i can tell you house is right a lot of talk in the written record room last week and indeed this week the number of outbreaks is down and the number of fatalities in care homes is now well the. welcomes the latest figures reveal the number of coronavirus related deaths in u.k. homes is indeed been falling for the past 2 weeks in the 1st week of may there were officially 1503 deaths in england just a week before that the number topped 2000 scientists say the virus is still having a huge impact and there's growing fears of a 2nd wave earlier i discussed the progress being made and challenges still being faced in the sector with mike panjim from the independent care group that represents a number of care homes in the u.k.

i think we are going to find sadly more deaths in due course because at the in some cases not everyone the past when you can has a kobe had related a cause of death on the death certificate so i think there will be more but i think at the minute we're still trying to fight the virus and deal with that battle i think later on i'd like to see a public inquiry into how we handle the matter in this country to do with deaths in care homes where the whole band i mean really but i think we've got to make sure we learn lessons and nothing should this happen again is repeated such as what we've been through in the last few weeks and months and i boris johnson said that there's going to be hundreds of thousands of. pal's millions of pounds thrown in to try to improve the situation in care homes that'll take time to have any effect is enough being done right now is there enough testing is there enough protective equipment there for the staff what more could be done. well i think we've had trouble with p.p. and testing improvements are on their way but we're still waiting on both fronts really and i think in terms of the money yes money has been pretty but i just say

in this country with over probably 2 decades social care has never been at the top of the list and it's been underfunded we've had a 10000000000 pound sit ups are innately empowered since 2010 and yes we've had some money put it but we're still not back to where we were funding wise since 2010 with many more people so one thing that positive that should come out of this virus is the government finally recognizes that so you get into the higher of the priority list and given the same attention as our n.h.s. is. did you ever get the feeling the sense during this you know crisis situation that elderly people struggle to look after themselves in care homes that they came down the very bottom of the list of priorities that people are focusing elsewhere and thinking will deal with that those elderly last. section or the people generally been further down the list and they should have been and i hope that 6

corrected the teacher who i don't think as many people would have died if we could've dealt with it differently. he said of course that this is unprecedented so don't blame the government for everything but i hope that they will learn going for in the future we need to do things differently but we are not going to release a lot done yet to we get some guidance to when it might be safe to do so my fear is that if we relax things too quickly we will get a 2nd spike so one looking to the gum to help us to know when will be a good thing i'm hoping with the better weather this coming for the summer that we will be able to meet people perhaps outside relatives to to exchange. interest to the minute is a big worry and i hope we can move on and get to new york once it is possible. the french drug johnson off which is busy working on a coronavirus of vaccines coming under huge pressure over who will be 1st to get their hands on any cure on the company now says that there are no advance for any country earlier it provoked outrage at home when saying that the u.s.

would get priority because it funded research the u.s. government has the right to the largest preorder because it's invested in taking the risk the u.s. which expects that if we've helped you men effector the doses at risk we expect to get the doses 1st i just remind is santa fees chairman says weinberg that is a profoundly french company he gave me all necessary assurance regarding the distribution of a future santa fe vaccine in front of santa fe is one of the biggest players in the race to find a covert 900 vaccine the company has a long relationship with the u.s. barda research organization and in december it promised son of a more than $200000000.00 for research so far it's given $30000000.00 for the vaccine program the french government's angry because it also sponsors the firm to the tune of tens of millions yes french citizens what they think. i. think it's just business like everywhere there are a lot of incoherent things going on i think we're not told everything it's like

with masks we were supposed to get a huge package of masks and then the americans took it and i busted her regionally it's a french company then it doesn't matter who pays the money it's still french or at least it should be for everyone. before we need to return the money that they give us and then it's 1st 1st would deal with all problems and then we think about this it's not normal it's not good it's not possible. i think it's a bit stupid because at this time we all need to help each other we don't know which vaccine will work and which will be available 1st if you have the u.s. or friends find the vaccine 1st that would be a good thing but it could also be that another state discovers the vaccine which decides to keep it for itself. but to support the meticulous i find it troubling want it because i don't think the us is the quandary that most urgently needs of their vaccine france also has a lot of secret people but i think the developing countries was huge populations

like india and others which don't have enough doctors should be 1st even if they didn't finance the development of the vaccine especially since they don't have the budget for it. for alleged mercenary claims venezuelan opposition leader wang met with the u.s. security companies boss just before a failed coup 2 with a story after the break.

you cannot be both with the yeah you like. the one else chose seemed wrong. but all roles just don't hold. any you get to shape out just to become educated and engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

welcome back an alleged mercenary from the u.s. core security company has given testimony following a failed coup attempt to gain venezuela's president nicolas maduro he claims the opposition leader met with the head of silvercorp at the white house before the plan was put into practice it was 2 weeks ago an armed group on board speed boats tried to make an incursion into venezuela they were intercepted and repelled by security forces the army then began patrols searching for anyone involved more than 10 alleged mercenaries have since been detained one claimed he's been a local contact. around the middle of march 1 where do a travels from colombia and the right in the u.s. jordan could draw did not reply to our attempts to contact him he would then get back in touch to inform me that he was meeting with one great deal in the white house that he had been briefed firm to once again there is a military assessor to oust the regime in venezuela that would give us

a bit more strength it would motivate us to continue with this operation we had been meeting with jordan who was responsible for president trump security for a year when he was militarily assessing us to bolster our security. sweep the washington post publish what is claimed to be a contract between silvercorp who declared himself president last year in it quite as listed as the commander of the operation but their suspicion of the authenticity of his signature i don't himself denies any involvement but the document also lacks any u.s. markings but jordan who drove the silver course c.e.o. and reportedly tried to convince a colleague that the contract was given by the state department and your parent will host of the breadlines show on the gray zone news side spoke with that colleague. 030 minutes one operation which a beautiful moment could be a big part of an offer or a trade so why do you say it was state department. and

state park contract understood. who did not appear. to speak perfect but he was trying to suggest it was going to be reset of the most interesting detail that drew shared with me when i was the fact that when jordan good dro initially came to him to discuss this operation he claimed to have a state department contract to carry it out drew white says that he didn't feel comfortable he didn't feel as though the contract he was presented with was totally illegitimate if there were u.s. government hands of this operation there is no way they would want a contract explicitly printed out that had state department markings or added their their character to it but what i would like to know is why

jordan goudreau was under the impression that he had a state department contract why would he tell his best friend and business partner that this was a state department endeavor and less someone had given him confidence or promised him that this was the kind of support he would receive for carrying out the operation the venezuelan government still suspects washington itself was behind the operation although the us authorities denied any involvement. i wouldn't. know a little group no no no no because an army we ever did a thing with venezuela it wouldn't be that way it would be a slightly different it would be called invasion was no us government direct involvement in this operation. would have been a ball that would have gone differently well of course the u.s. government is denying involvement but the us government has a long history of lying and more and more evidence continues to show that the us government was absolutely involved going up to the highest levels this testimony is

part of a larger amount of evidence that has been growing and growing more and more by the day we have also seen that even members of the right wing that is for the opposition who are against chua you know they have also exposed his involvement we have a leak recording that was released by another venezuelan opposition figure and of course the head of this mercenary firm itself who drove says that big white it was absolutely involved that he signed a contract with quite oh we have a physical copy of the contract itself so of course why you know is trying to deny any involvement and the u.s. government is trying to deny any involvement but that simply because it's plausible deniability the coup attempt failed so now that failed they're going to pretend that they have nothing to do with it despite the fact that we have mounds of evidence showing. the spying to monte concerns well why did this

information over the coronavirus high level panel set to discuss these were races now being canceled concerns about this information l m open expanse. nancy china atmosphere is getting more and chats with the u.s. government taking the lead recently the national association of black journalists had to cancel a panel discussion on code that 19 just information because wow way was listed as one of the sponsors it was outrage from the tech giants as well as from cnn's van jones i accept that invite to participate in a b g women are more than black community about covert misinformation i said yes without knowing sponsor glad and they b.g. cancelled i wouldn't have participated while a had signed no contract with the black journalists association and it had no control over the panels content and the b.j. has cancelled the web not because it has become a distraction from other priorities it had to come under attack because

controversial technology giant weiwei was planning to sponsor the web anon though it had no editorial control and they begin always retains editorial control over all such content along with the final say over moderators and panelists additionally while way officials were not part of the scheduled webinars there is no signed contract and they b.j. has not accepted funding from well wait it seems like hatred for china and for awhile way the world's largest telecommunications manufacturer is uniting both democrats and republicans both repeat unfounded accusations about spying and seem to want to isolate this major competitor with us telecom giants china a sequel to export its digital autocracy to its telecoms telephone giant. loss into cannot feed our telecommunications infrastructure to china for financial export or food on wednesday donald trump extended his ban on doing business with

companies that are considered a threat to national security what company was listed you guessed it wow x. but the company hasn't batley denied that it is a threat to. erica the fact is the us government has provided no evidence to assure that highway is security threat when it comes to cyber security and privacy protection we committed to being on the side of our customers we will never harm any nation or individual paranoia loued all things china is getting even more bizarre at this point we've got republicans in congress who want a formal investigation into made in china drones they say are tracking u.s. citizens and lock down violators the f.b.i. is now claiming that vaccine research could be stolen by the chinese china's efforts to target these sectors pose a significant threat to our nation's response to covet 19 this announcement is

intended to raise awareness for research institutions and the american public and provide resources and guidance for those who may be targeted yes c.n.n. burned with outrage about the fact that huawei was listed as one of the co-sponsors of the panel however many noticed that c.n.n. included eco activist and teenager gretta thunder on a panel of medical experts discussing the pandemic the similarity to color socking disease but when you hear that i mean how does it make you feel well i mean of course of course those new actually it's sort of and missing right now that children are not being affected by this virus this is honestly hilarious b.s.p. and keeps his gretta train going and brings her in to break down the n.f.l. draft she's an expert in everything. spears best over for greg or like kratos homburg nash is a coveted expert c.n.n. has said. she's not there for the facts pirate she's there for the fear the

consensus seems to be that global cooperation is needed to fight against the pandemic however the united states has the opposite approach get a list of people not to associate with or cooperate with and top corporations based in. china are at the top i think that while waiting might have been a money situation they may have come with a big bag of money and said ok we want to be involved we want to help well here's a and then they probably accept it without thinking about the backlash and the same thing we're going to they're not so much concerned about fags and getting real information at this particular point and my humble opinion c.n.n. is on the boat just trying to get ratings trying to give use because he's a very popular person in now and that's where they're at all and that even graduate in high school yet let alone have any kind of events degree is all about trying to get that television revenue. thing she brought up today thanks to staying with auntie will be keeping you informed for a website on social media channels and of course the live broadcast musty days here in moscow as well as london and washington d.c. . for the.
