swab that the nurse was actually using our 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 make you a mural out of masks that were donated to new york state at 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 being used mosque sent in from good houses americans across the country for an os installation so why is someone being raised to superstar status
4:08 pm
while blundering their way through a pandemic 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 the country has learned to lower its standards when it comes to who is worth idealizing they will mop and artsy new york. an image of a nurse wearing a waist biogas protective gown and went viral harnessing the state's lack of protective equipment we spoke to the nurse who post about picture down a taurus told us that hospital management annoyed her concerns she says she still doesn't feel safe i was offended when. people 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 they don't actually now the day they were in there working with us they were i mean they're struggling with us i want to call

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. like the founder of foundation for red dress told r.t. the cops attitude toward seeing whites in central park were masculist 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 neighborhoods of the city and use the
4:12 pm
trust that they have built in communities the important standing there you have the reach they have to educate people about the coronavirus to help people do social distancing to make sure folks have face coverings that are using them now the n.y.p.d. tells me that between my. that apartment has made a 100 in 20 names you know many of which were response to complaints and others of 90 percent of the law or hispanic reporting from home in new york city the charges are. milder forms of covert 19 may not protect you from reinfection as previously thought that's the findings at least by new spanish that it was revealed that almost half a victim was 73000000 low levels of neutralizing antibodies we spoke to a doctor who's apparently caught the virus a 2nd time. got infected with corona virus in the middle of march when i recovered
4:13 pm
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 this is very confusing because it destroys our perception about other responders he 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 to people around the world including in the us korea and china have also reportedly tested positive off the recovery so far that the world health organization can't say for certain whether recovery guarantees immunity there is currently no evidence that people who have recovered from cope with and have
4:14 pm
antibodies are protected from a 2nd infection. well many disagree with the study's claim the head of south korea's disease control clinical committee believes the instances of people contracts in the virus a 2nd time could be simply adult a flawed testing so called book about s. again says the facts must be established in order to find an effective vaccine. to do when it all not generate antibodies you generate them against a virus you've gotten viruses always mutate and if there are so many mutations that the virus changes that much and 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 that 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 that 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
4:15 pm
looking for a vaccine against aids for 30 years and we still haven't found one and i hope we can find a vaccine against this virus but before then we can only hope for the best with. what's reality international but coming up next the impact of covert on the world's worst humanitarian crisis we hear from a leading medical yemen about the help the country faces a new health justification. you cannot be both with the yeah you like.
4:16 pm
the world is driven by drugs shaped by one person at. we. asked. welcome back to the program being accused of violating a u.n. embargo and sending arms and military personnel to libya the libyan national army
4:17 pm

u.n. backed d.n.a. in the capital tripoli you can see that while the enemy is based in tobruk so the east of the country militant groups including myself are also active there in january and current tense of 5 its military support to the d.n.a. libyan economic and freelance journalist dr moustapha to read told us the u.n. arms embargo has been violated repeatedly. i think the consequences lifting the international arms embargo of libya by countries like turkey. are not quite serious seriously taken by the fire later and find the international community by which i mean the you are in the security council which imposes sanctions such an embargo is not serious about making deflator is be what they do and that's why there is no implementation mechanism. princes' countries.
4:19 pm
why did the embargo like turkey to stop doing so or there would be still consequences. have been there since 2011 when the 1st among them was involved in the country in 2011. we have not seen any country or entity being punished for. where the turkey of course. is a skeleton of the situation to ground by its increased so forth lol. it's a bore to go on the. national accord gina it is in this is surprising to believe this have to as forces or what is known as a libyan national army or lending. us care homes became a breeding ground for the pandemic however a fresh government report says american facilities had problems even before the virus document by the u.s. government accountability office revealed that u.s. nursing homes have been plagued with infection control shortcomings it also says

4:21 pm
a robot very impersonal and at that point they had i think 77 people out of the 3rd like a 100 patients test positive for the virus and then you 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 its most like wildfire. will brill geneva nursing home is already facing its 2nd lawsuits the facility has been accused of not implementing precautions to prevent the spread of the disease they lawsuits were filed off or at least $22.00 residents that died from covered 19 complications were sitting outside my mom's window and a white van pulls up. and they take one of the gurneys on wheels out why don't you black bag. when the boeing came out and they were stopped in the
4:22 pm
black bag. it was obvious obviously a patient they call their family they said you got to come pick her up now. and they said that she was when and i called it i don't know if they get the right medical care they need. if i had to guess i would say not to get an email today from a lonely person as helen she passed away april 26th the family is just one of a lawsuit against their saying that they they how they didn't even know that their mom got tested 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 cope with 19 catastrophe doctors without borders is appealing for urgent u.n.
