when some find themselves worlds apart we look for common ground. police arrest them. threaten to blow it up. media heap praise on new york governor andrew cuomo despite being responsible for shortcomings in the response and shifting the blame on to the medical community. came on my t.v. and that he was told by. the c.e.o. of the hospital that he was. the c.e.o. wasn't even. people that were. following patients modeling affected. communities.

is recovering. this is very confusing because it destroys our perception about the responders. here in the capital. welcome to the program. the police have arrested a man who took hostages in a bank and threatened to blow up the building in central moscow. brings the latest details. well it all started early afternoon on saturday when a man rushed into a bank carrying a backpack and he said that he had a bomb inside of it and threatened to detonate it thankfully at that time one of the bank employees was able to alert the police of the situation and she was also actually able to evacuate herself and others through a back entrance leaving only one person in the building with the suspect and that person inside the building was actually live streaming at the instant at certain points let's take a quick look at a quick clip from what he was streaming. down and. you know.

you know. one time to you when you were just maybe both. now from that short clip alone you can tell that this was a rather bizarre situation the suspect went on to say things like i've come to understand that death is the single most amazing gift that life can give you a short quick death and then he went on to also to say that moments like this need to be captured and all this will forever be on you tube and of course he is right there because once it's on the internet it's always on the internet it's not really clear what his intentions were what he wanted to have the reports that he demanded a large sum of money and that he possibly was having some financial issues but there have also been reports saying that he said he didn't want any money he just wanted the truth so it's a very strange situation it all unfolded very quickly and then flee a large police operation quickly went into fact they stormed the building and were

able to arrest the suspect and then left just the one hostage we actually had a chance to talk to and he told us about the experience which will. be likened to the mike to pay my bills this man came just over to me 1st we thought it was a joke but then he started to threaten us he barricaded the door i tried to start a conversation with him i found out they have some problems with his head who seem to be after a breakup and couldn't coordinate his actions what he wants from the situation because when a man has a goal he says strictly what you want and what others should do there was some limitations like if i go somewhere he would push the button but i could move around freely i talked with him and tried to calm him down the police took over quickly my friend message me that it would start any moment so i tried to distract him when police came from the back of. new york state sent thousands of recovering

covert victims to nursing homes reportedly greatly contributing to the death toll that's why this other mistake spots the media continues to heap praise on governor cuomo kaleb often takes up a 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 curious 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 had 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. field hospitals in parks sports stadiums and convention centers to do what a structural shortfall in our public health system that we are standing here today being asked to cut even further but he's worst decision came in march when he ordered coded 19 patients to recover inside of nursing all by 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 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 then use ma sent in 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 his fans will tell you this is because while mo appears much more

responsible and 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 a protective girl went viral harnessing the state's lack of protective equipment we spoke to the nurse who posted that picture there and i thought it was told us that hospital management annoyed 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 they don't actually now the day they were in there working with us they were i mean they're struggling what those are going to come out came on my t.v. and said that he was told by the c.e.o. of the hospital that it wasn't true about the c.e.o.

wasn't even in new york let alone in our hospitals my husband in particular i didn't 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 nobody. now and nobody was prepared our state was prepared all city was for pierre the country was not prepared nobody was prepared because it all politics were as it was it was even harder because we should have been the people who were 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 we hear from a son whose mother is in a nursing home in illinois that faces lawsuits coronavirus negligence. new york police have been tasked with forcing social distancing studies suggest

that n.y.p.d. arrests are racially biased r.t. americans stranded travelers as more. 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 standing in 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 oh no no no no no no craig sly 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 neighborhoods of the city and use the cross 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 response to complaints and others of 90 percent of the law just then according to paul in new york city the charges are. milder forms of covert 19 may not protect you from reinfection this previously thought the finding by new spanish study which revealed almost half of victims of extreme low levels of neutralizing antibodies we spoke to a doctor who is apparently caught the virus a 2nd time. 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 this is very confusing because it destroys our perception about other response richie 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 for people around the world including in the us korea and china have also reportedly tested positive after recovery so far the world health organization can't say whether recovery guarantees immunity there is currently no evidence that people who have recovered from cold and have antibodies are protected from a 2nd infection and many disagree with the study's claim the head of south korea's the zs controlled clinical committee believes instances of people contracting the

virus a 2nd time could be simply down to flawed testing so called welcome bias against 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 got 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 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 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 with our international live from moscow still to come the impact of covert on the world's worst humanitarian crisis we hear from a leading medic in yemen about how the country faces a new health catastrophe. you can't be both with the yeah you want. to go all the federal reserve bank would be to take the american economy private

that is the say it would buy all stocks all bonds all property and now deutsche bank and other banks are saying yeah they're going to print $130.00 trillion dollars they're not going to stop at 6 or 7 trillion the number of dollars going to print is going to exceed the g.d.p. of america by a huge factor and they're going to buy buy everything same with the other 3 or 4 major central banks around the world this is what neo feudalism looks like. welcome back to the program turkey's being accused of vonnegut's in the un in ball go and sending a military personnel to libya the libyan national army one of the 2 separate governments trying to control the country has shown video power improving ankara was supplying the rival government of national accord yell and i released this task

on footage from what it says is a turkish made vehicle that shows the vehicles journey from the production facility to rival forces in libya but also apparently shows turkish officers training g.n.a.t. finances as well as transportation of must and raise from syria a spokesperson for the at and i says the international community must intervene and i'm going to say that i mean i'm given we hope that the united nations the african union the e.u. in the arab league will take into account data that we have presented today and will take action. well that press conference came on the same day turkey warned against any attacks on its interests in libya by khalifa haftar libyan national army. that it's promised to deliver serious repercussions adding that the island a intends to escalate the conflict in libya other countries of course are split between the u.n. backed g.n.a.t. that's in the capital tripoli where the l n a is based in tobruk in the east of the country militant groups including myself are also active in the area in january and career intensified its military support

to the d.n.a. libyan academic and freelance journalist dr mostafa turi told us the u.n. arms embargo has been violated repeatedly. i think the consequences of liability in 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 and such an embargo is not serious about making deflator is be what they do and that's why there is no implementation mechanism that convinces countries that 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 why they think that when the turkey of course. is a school it the situation into ground by its increased important support of the government the. national accord g.n.a.s. headed by mrs raja to believe this hatters forces or what is known as. the national army or the name. u.s. care homes became a breeding ground for the pandemic however a fresh government report says american facilities have problems even before the virus the document by the u.s. government accountability office reveal that u.s. nursing homes have been plagued with infection control shortcomings it also says most of them had deficiencies as far back as 2013 to 2017 reports crucial because

one of the 1st outbreaks in the u.s. occurred at the nursing home in washington state scott morrow whose mother was covert positive and in one of the hardest hit care homes in illinois told us about his experience. we're told there was no. cases of coronavirus. in the in the nursing home this was. the 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 everybody we were only testing patients from symptoms. everything was fine everything's under control 2nd friday they said that they were going to start testing everyone they would have to ask to go from crossing into multiple causes so then we get. an automated update they always want me to form for it's done by a robot very impersonal and at that point. i think 77 people out

there are like 100 patients test positive for the virus and then you get nurses you know who are in a mass right who. are handling a patient that does have called. the of course it's going to spread its most like wildfire. well bria of geneva nursing home is already facing its 2nd lawsuits facilities been accused of not implementing precautions to prevent the spread of the disease the lawsuits were filed after at least 22 residents of their died from 19 complications. we're sitting outside my mom's window and a white van pulls up. and they take one of the gurneys and wheels out an empty black bag and. i want to go in and i came out and they were soaked in the black bag. it was up the obviously a patient they had called the family and he said to get a computer right now. and they said that she will when and i called when

i don't know if they get the right medical care they need if i had to guess i would say no to get 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 they have they didn't even know that their mom got tested they 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 we have maybe with a lot of other places. or again i think it's very unfortunate i think this is the this is very sad. a leading international medical shouty says more to form that yemen is on the verge of a coven 1000 catastrophe doctors without borders is appealing for u.n. action adding that yemenis victims of the outbreak may not even make it so hospital . what you missed seeing in our treatment center is just the tip of the eyes brick

people are kind to us too late to see and we know that many more people are not coming at all their agents dunnit whom the united nations and dynasties need to do more endued urgently. through. all they're also significant discrepancies in the reporting of casualties showered here according 68 deaths at its facility the government low claims there's been less than half that number there. you haven't the spin embroiled in armed conflict since 2014 more than 100000 people are thought of lost their lives the rebel who

these are fighting a government which gets military help from an international coalition led by neighboring saudi arabia the wars that led to the world's worst humanitarian crisis leaving millions displaced or starving we're going to update from the head of doctors without borders in yemen. it's a very specific situation i think in human. the health system has been really deeply affected by the war already so it was specifically weak population has been made there weaker. 5 years so while. we have seen clearly how we have seen being gay there is malaria and there's not much places that can treat them there is a lack of protection equipment even father his workers are days. we see that from hopefully the dead nationals i mean you know that you have more

tests. for the moment there is not enough there's that that right here men. still quite low when we consider that book edition of our most 30000000. people really need men and we have them i mean it's. the police fired water cannon and made numerous arrests german protesters came out against the looked on demonstrators offices in the city of hamburg cracked down on the members of the anti from movement who could be seen marching close to one another. social distancing recommendations the protest was held by a school of demonstrating against the lockdown conspiracy theorists germany for lifting coronavirus for later restrictions the country split over the move. the country has more than 35000 covert cases and 3000 its biggest city and initial

epicenter of the outbreak gonna kill has lowered the infection risk level to yellow i mean the lockdown can be eased despite the situation in the past month being on the brink of catastrophe authorities failed to cope with the number of deaths with body you see long and. pavements i mean homes but as have such a white days to bury loved ones with funeral services overwhelmed those living close to cemeteries complained of the foul smell from corpses the government's solution to place the disease than kabul coffins just fueled more outrage and now the city faces another 4. or 5 my brother has just died teacher a respiratory problem he's here outside the house the police told me they cannot comment collect the body.

oh yes my father passed away on the 1st of april the next day they key to pick him up they were supposed to call us but they never did it we have searched for information but so far they haven't said anything about my car. at the moment the nurse knew in the 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 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 did their responsibility. a lot said doctors annoyed examines the u.s. response to the covert pandemic next it's even a back in 30 minutes for the latest to join us that. join me every thursday on the alex salmond's show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics or business i'm showbusiness i'll see that.

welcome to redact of the night this is a comedy show where americans in america covering american news are called foreign agents last week donald trump gave a brave press conference where he boldly declared america leads the world in testing even out a gorgeous banner made to compute we're going to think many people don't know this but you put something on a banner that makes it true which is why i had a banner made that leap can't does not have to pay taxes despite having such

a massive. banner works like a charm half for the banner words like a charm i still don't have a massive dock but one can dream think of all the fun we have together so america is not leading the world in coronavirus testing but we are leading the world in coronavirus dest does that count that we get a prize for that you know maybe a decoder ring or plastic spider to scare your friends. were probably also close to leading the way in the level of unemployment increase during the pandemic so there's something else to be proud of right now we have to ask ourselves is there another way we could be doing things right now is there a better way yes of course paris let's take a look at countries that don't have corn dog brains.
