news rick sanchez where you know as we always like to say we do believe. by golly it's time to do news again. in an office of rush. threatening to blow up the building if. media continues to hail the new york governor it was revealed. to contribute to some mounting deaths in the city's nursing homes. picture of. the state of the new york hospital. that he was told by. the house not all that it was. always even. people without. research from

the patient's moderately affected. we spoke to the doctor who got positive positive test. this is very confusing because it destroys our perception about the responders he viruses. thanks for joining us and also international to. have you with us this hour and we are starting with some breaking news coming in from moscow police have been responding to a suspected hostage situation at a bank in the city center and joins us live now with the latest jacki understand it's been a developing situation over the last couple of hours what do we know. you know it's just as you said this is developing but it really did sort of and as quickly as it all began it's

a rather bizarre situation with this hostage taker here apparently stormed a bank and he had a backpack on that had wires sticking out of it this is all according to reports and he was threatening to blow up the bank now police were 1st alerted by an employee of the bank she's reported to be a manager a female manager of that branch who then called the police and reported on the situation and then was able to get employees and clients whoever else might have been in the branch at the time out through an emergency door it's believed at that point it was just the suspect and one other person left in the building at that time but of course in situations like this there are different reports coming left and right and things are changing quickly at 1st it was reported that there were 5 or 6 people but that may have been referring to the employees who did manage to leave the actual bank itself it's not exactly clear at this time what the purpose of this was some reports are saying that it was financial issues and that he was

demanding a large sum of money but then there's also reports saying that at one point he wrote a note saying i don't want the money i just want the truth and one of the most strange parts of this whole situation is that large parts of the incident were actually live streamed on instagram by one of the hostages you can see a man who looks to be about in his thirty's all in black and he's walking around talking and saying some very surprising things at one point he said that he's come to understand that death is the single most amazing gift that life can give a quick death he then went on to add and other points you can see him drinking wine so it's really really quite bizarre he also said that this moments like this such as this incident need to be captured saying that this will forever be on you tube which of course. it will be sense the internet is the internet and since this was live stream that can never go away now something interesting is he's been reported

to have been wearing the uniform of one of the local food delivery chains that has not been confirmed but it is believed that that's what he was doing when he walked into the bank and that's possibly the backpack that he had was in relation to that food delivery chain it is believed that he was saying that there was a bomb in that backpack and that was wires sticking out but it is believed that that explosive device was fake and that there was nothing to it of course the law enforcement responded extremely quickly i got to the site because this is actually a very busy area of course with it being locked down in the city and a saturday afternoon it's believed that there weren't a large number of people around which is of course a good thing but this is still a big area in moscow right in the center of the city there's a big train station nearby and what not but they sealed down the area extremely quickly and carried out that operation to take the suspect down and that actually

was also live streamed on instagram there's a video of the police storming the bank itself so the hostage taker has been taken into custody and nobody was injured which is of course the most important thing at what people want to know and hear and this sort of instant of course there's an investigation already going on but there's been statements from i believe it was the head of the bank already saying that he believed that this person was just somebody who's just a little bit unstable and maybe didn't necessarily intend any real harm so the most important thing is that we have this big employee who really is the hero of the situation contacting the police in time and getting out as many people as possible as she could before anything actually happened of any seriousness and it does look like this is all over and it's just going to have to wait and see what comes out of that investigation to see what his plans were what he wanted and what will come

after that you have a corrections boy buying. into the well with jackie with the latest up to thinks its owner. more than 400000 covert patients who were in recovery were sent to nursing homes in new york that's according to the associated press news agency it's believed that greatly contributed to the city's mounting death toll despite that parts of the media have continued to praise the main proponents of the policy new york state governor andrew cuomo. takes up the story. pandemic has made new york state governor andrew cuomo into a shining star some are calling it his finest moment say on behalf of just just me but my family but new yorkers beget them that the world thank you for your leadership can i say that i am a cuomo sexual everyone and more so and we're almost sexual in that way and many americans experience moments of being at least andrew carious if not fully cuomo sexual he seems to be the latest media darling with t.v.

and social networks fawning over him is emotional interviews with his younger brother have been a big hit i love you i'm proud of what you're doing and i know you're working hard for your state but no matter how hard you're working as always time to call mom she wants to hear from you not only your love you have always been proud of you but i've never been prouder of you than i am right now he's got a 70 percent approval rating and 78 percent of new yorkers say they trust him when it comes to making decisions about opening up but amid the media celebrations some of his seriously bad decisions are being overlooked is now being widely blamed for imposing lockdown restrictions far too late now when he was called out on it he didn't take responsibility but instead he threw the medical community under the bus where was the whole international health community where was the whole national host of experts the w.h.o. d.n.i. age to see these 2 you know alphabet soup of agencies where was everyone where were

you where was the intelligence community. governors don't do loop in them mix now he's also cut funding to medical facilities the 1st wave of cuts aimed just before the pandemic and another wave of cuts of $400000000.00 was announced in april people are literally dying in the halls of our public hospitals because they simply don't have the capacity a direct result of years of cutting hospital beds and funding where did. up field hospitals in parks sports stadiums and convention centers to deal with the structural shortfall in our public health system that we are standing here today being asked to cut it even further but he's worst decision came in march ordered coded 19 patients to recover inside of nursing on may 11th it was already too late to revise the plan more than 5800 people have died from coated 19 in new york nursing homes now at c.n.n.

isn't highlighting this not damaging the resume of their new favorite star celebrity instead they're focusing on laughter is it true that this was this swab that the nurse was actually using are new and that at 1st it went into your nose and disappeared so that in scale this was the actual swab that was being used to fit up that double barrel shotgun that you have mounted on the front of your pretty face to making a mural out of masks that were donated to new york state certain dreams some eyebrows it's actually not a good look at all that they are literally being put on display rather than used in the spirit in which they were given it's an insult to the people who gave them so they could be used to prevent the spread of the 19 good thing they're protecting that wall you hung them on instead of actually letting people use them we hate you

because you scream that everyone in new york city was going to die from a lack of mosques then use mohsin tin from good houses americans across the country for an os installation so why is someone raised to superstar status while blundering their way through a pandemic well his fans will tell you this is because while mo appears much more responsible better job than us president donald trump it seems that is thousands of americans are dying that country has learned to lower its standards when it comes to who is worth idealizing the. well mop and arts new york the state faced other problems too including a shortage of personal protective equipment so much so that a picture of nurses wearing rubbish bags s.p.p. went viral several weeks ago we spoke to the nurse who post the picture of told us told us that the hospital management refuted her concerns she says she still doesn't feel safe i was offended when. people are in charge of the whole sinai system team and said that it wasn't true and they said to the media

it wasn't true that we did have because we did it you know naturally now the day they were in their work and wait that was the one i mean they're struggling with this i'm going to call it cuomo came on my t.v. and said that he was told by the c.e.o. of the hospital that it wasn't true. the c.e.o. wasn't even in new york let alone in our hospitals my husband in particular i didn't have and i know other hospitals did it and i know for a fact that he forward said that hundreds and thousands of people have come forward and say their hospital didn't have either nobody cared now nobody was prepared the state was prepared all city was prepared the country was not prepared nobody was prepared because it all politics or as it was it was even harder because we should have been the people our most protected we should have been the people that wear protective earth i still don't feel like we're protected what they call enough to

be so exchanges between patients people who are stand still getting sick and getting the virus. still to come this hour we hear from a son whose mother is in a nursing home when it annoys the faces more suitable coronavirus negligence. new york police have been tossed for them forcing social distancing on a study suggests that n.y.p.d. arrests are racially biased auntie's americans trying to shove of the details. today new york city mayor bill de blasio facing backlash over the way the n.y.p.d. enforces social distancing rules. this comes after several alarming video surfaced on social media in recent weeks showing violent encounters with police and alleged social distancing by leaders specifically in black and brown communities back i don't like. this video capturing the moment an officer waves

a taser and repeatedly strikes a bystander during a social distancing by stating the. police watchdogs accusing officers of using social distancing during the pandemic as an excuse to harass people of color along the lines of stop and frisk others taking it a step further criticizing what they call police officers double standards going after minorities during this pandemic but allowing crowds of mainly white parco wares to gather in large groups well you know. the founder of foundation for red dress told r.t. the cops attitude toward saying whites in central park were massless and crowded together are greeted with a smile and hand in masks but blacks and latinos who are alleged violators are greeted with balled up fist to the face a firm foot up the butt and tight handcuffs violence prevention groups across new york city now stepping in the groups which are mostly young black and hispanic men the same demographic that has either been given summonses or arrested for offenses related to the coronavirus pandemic are known as credible messengers rather than

rely solely on police they to encourage others to follow social distancing rules the mayor announcing today that he is also enlisting some help so we will work with 18 year violence organizations across 21 a bunch of the city. and use the trust that they have built in communities the important standing they have the reach they have to educate people about the coronavirus to help people do social distancing that make sure folks have coverings and using them now the n.y.p.d. tells me that between march 16th and made him the department has made a 120. many of which the response to complaints and those arrests 90 percent of them were in their law or hispanic reporting from home in new york city the charges are. a new study by spicer's the suit shows that people who had mild forms of covered 19 may not be protected from reinfection 44 percent of such

patients had a low number of antibodies we spoke to one spice doctor who tested positive for the corona virus even though a month passed since his recovery. got infected with corona virus in the middle of march when i recovered and then after some 40 days the simpsons returned it seems like i had the virus a 2nd time but if i really was reinfected it's the worst case scenario almost all the experts believe it's unlikely that if the virus lay dormant before becoming active again then apparently my antibodies were not very effective this is also unlikely or maybe the disease just last longer than we think and a recurrence is actually possible and this is very confusing because it destroys our perception about other responders she viruses you get it you go through the illness and then the virus disappears and now you have the same infection weeks later it's not easy to explain about being a number of similar reports from china south korea and the united states as well

where people of tested positive after recovery from covert 90 so far the world health organization can't say whether recovering from the all this means instant immunity. there is currently no evidence that people who have recovered from cope with 9 tune and have antibodies are protected from a 2nd infection but it seems that there are still consensus the head of south korea's disease control clinical committee believes instances of people contracting the virus a 2nd time are simply explain why floor tests the country's decision prevention and control center latest study of positive test results after recovery and fell no evidence that these people were contagious jacob bias again believes this information is crucial for filing of us seem. to do when it on generate antibodies you generate them against a virus you've got viruses always mutate and if there are so many mutations that the virus changes that much in the antibodies you've got may become useless we know

a lot but there are many things we don't know one of those things is disease patterns are they the same all the time or do they come and go we don't know if we develop long term immunity and we don't know who they're for whether those who have come through the disease are protected and we don't know if we can create an effective vaccine the problem is that we haven't made vaccines against all viruses we've been looking for a vaccine against aids for 30 years and we still haven't found one i hope we can find a vaccine against this virus but before then we can only hope for the best with. your audience it out here in moscow more on the way the impact of covert on the world's worst humanitarian crisis we'll hear from a leading medic in yemen about how the country faces a new health industry. join

coronavirus. in the in the nursing home this was. beginning of april by the i think 2nd friday in april they had a couple cases and they went to transfer them out and they were testing anybody we're only testing patients if they're showing symptoms they should as everything was fine everything's under control 2nd friday they said that they were going to start testing everyone they would have to ask we got a phone call saying there are multiple causes so then we get. an automated update they say you have always automated phone call it's done by your robot very impersonal and at that point they have i think 77 people out of there are like 100 patients test positive for the virus and then you've got nurses you know who are in the mass right who are wearing gloves they're handling a patient that does have copd. of course it's going to spread it's misspelled like

wildfire. bria of geneva nursing i was already facing it 2nd and also the city has been accused of not implementing precautions to prevent the spread of the disease the lawsuits will follow will fall off at least $22.00 residents of the died from cope with 1000 complications. we're sitting outside my mom's window and a white van pulls up. and they take one of the gurneys on wheels out and i'm people like baggage. i want to go in and i came out and they were soaked in the black bag. it was obvious obviously a patient they called her from going they said you got to come pick you up now. and they said that you went and i didn't. i don't know if they get the right medical care they need. if i had to guess i would say not to give an email today from

a lady 1st name is helen she passed away april 26th the family is just one of a lawsuit against korea they're saying that they say they have they didn't even know that their mom got tested they didn't know their mom had the virus you know their mom was ill we're going to see a lot more lawsuits maybe not just with greer maybe with a lot of other places. again i think it's a very unfortunate i think this is the this is a very sad. a leading international medical charity says war torn yemen is on the verge of a covert 19 catastrophe doctors without borders is appealing for urgent u.n. action adding that yemenis who what affected might never make it a hospital would miss seen in our treatment center is just the tip of the as break people are coming to us too late to see and we know that many more people are not coming at all they just done in the united nations and dynasties need to do more endued urgently. to. the.

troops to. try to walk in the streets. but. we. stopped so it's $56.00. it's just too dangerous to fix the systems. the charity's as its code treatment center in the key port of aden has seen 173 cases that 68 people have died there in the past 3 weeks alone those numbers are at odds with what the government says officially there have only been 33 covert related deaths. and humans been embroiled in a bitter armed conflict since 2014 during which more than 100000 people are thought of been killed it centers on the rebel who through group which is pitted against the government getting military help from an intervention led by neighboring saudi

arabia a war led to the world's worst humanitarian crisis leaving millions starving and displaced going update from the head of doctors without borders mission in yemen. it's a very specific situation i think in human. the health system as been really deeply affected by the war already so it was specifically weak population has been made weaker. 5 years so. we have seen clearly how we have seen being gay there is malaria and there's not much places that can treat them they lack of protection equipment even father his workers or they support. received from hopefully the international community now that you have more tests. for the moment . tests that have arrived and then their capacity is still quite low and we

consider that population of our most 30000000. people really need men and we having to cope with i mean it's. so ecuador now the country now is more than $35000.00 cases with $3000.00 but as i was not at the rate drops could it was most populous city and the initial epicenter of the. kill has lowered the infection risk to yellow level this means the lockdown that cannot be eased over last month the situation in the city was on the brink of catastrophe. well april sort of peak of deaths from the virus that around local authorities failed to cope with the influx of victims bodies which could be seen on the sidewalks and in houses relatives had to wait for days to bury their loved ones with cemeteries and funeral service is overwhelmed those living close to cemeteries complained of a foul smell coming from corpses the government solution to place the disease thing

called coffins just fueled the outrage now the worst hit cities facing another deadly issue. my brother has just died teach a respiratory problem that he's here outside the house the police told me they cannot comment collect the body with. my father passed away on the 1st of april the next day the key to pick him up they were supposed to call us but they never did he have searched for information but so far they haven't said anything about my car.

at the moment the nurse knew him just state authorities and all those involved including hospitals because we don't know what they've done with the body we're told that he was taken to hospital but the body wasn't. let a human want out of there has been no response on either from the president of the republic or from the local emergency operations committee they argued see if they do their responsibility here. you're not international big son you're coming up next on the documentary channel join us again next hour with the latest.
