four days later, germany and italy who were allied with japan declared war on the united states. roosevelt believed germany posed the greatest threat to america's long-term security. when hitler and mousolini set their war machines against the united states his need to respond was obvious. they continued against supply chips bound for great britain. and in europe german armies invaded the soviet union. winston churchill travelled to washington to meet with roosevelt. together they planned a strategy to combat the axis powers. it began to pay off in june of 1942 as the allies slowly stopped the expansion of the axis powers and began to take the offensive. in the epic battle of midway in june of 1942 was a major turning point. the u.s. navy destroyed four japanese aircraft carriers and ended japan's dominance in the central pacific. months later american forces invaded the island. this was a first step in the strategy that came to be called island hopping. an island to island advance. in europe, the situation also improved. british forces defeated the german africa core in egypt. th

it was difficult, therefore, for people in the united states to separate america's relations with germany, italy, and the soviet union from the music and musicians of those three lands. as a result, the classical musical community in the united states was drawn into the swirl of international politics and the intersection between the music community and unfolding overseas events supplied classical music with a degree of political significance that i think is now difficult to comprehend. "dangerous melodies" is filled with stories about instrumentalists, singers, conductors, and composers along with a tale of the work of important musical institutions in the united states -- symphony orchestras and opera companies. importantly, it also looks at how listeners understood and responded to classical music. a key point in the book is that over many decades, americans imbued the music with political and ideological meaning. the world of classical music helped americans grapple with critical questions in the life of the country. it helped them decide what was worth fighting for and why. it helped

it was an international trial involving audible sites -- sites involving not only the united states by germany, denmark, spain, greece. sitesit was about the time to recovery, namely the ability to be discharged. when you have a study like this, we have a data and safety monitoring board that looks at the data. they are independent. there is no prejudice on the part of the investigators. they are doing the trial or the drug is from a certain company. the safety monitoring board, intent -- monitoring board contacted me on april 24 and then on the 27th and notified the study team, namely the multiple investigators were during the study throughout the world that the data shows that this had a significant, positive effect in diminishing the time to recovery. this is really quite important for a number of reasons. i will give you the data. it is highly significant. if you look at the time to recovery being shorter, it was 11 days compared to 15 days. of 0.001.keyvalue although,mething that 31% improvement does not seem like a knockout, 100%, it is a very important proof of concept. what it has prov

medical protective gear but we are now seeing of course germany taken many patients from neighboring a new member states into its intensive care units of course germany luckily hasn't been quite as badly hit by coronavirus as some other states and on top of that we also saw the finance ministers come to agreement this week on a huge financial aid package which aims not only to question the economic impact of the coronavirus now during the crisis but also in the aftermath so of course as we have formed in my ear how germany and especially how germany in the e.u. reacts and responds right now will very much affect the future of the european union after the coronavirus and of course particularly when it comes to the success and survival of the eurozone as well. and we've also heard chancellor angela merkel address the public several times on this topic and when she's the one with the power to make decisions why did president john much use to give this address this weekend. well it very much comes down to the fact that it is east as this weekend and like in many places around the world easter is a huge religious festival here in germany

is certainly in the healthcare system where the united states is very good for a small section of the population mother never. not as well. as in germany and yet. the united states is that it's a reaction to. being. made so the parents are getting ready for what is coming has been last you. wish it would have been well you mention that the u.s. responded rather late i understand you are in contact with colleagues in the u.s. is there another reason why this crisis has accelerated so quickly in america and especially in hospitals like new york. well the spread of the virus is something that we certainly did predict it in terms of how fast the virus crosses the country is that the confidence that if you wish what is difficult because this is really how the health care system kicks and what is necessary what material is available facemask and delicious and others and so if you're in the situation such as neatly staying in some regions and friends now in new york where suddenly you are on the edge of what would be edge of the health care system and the medical teams idle and to handle or not to handle the situation anymore then things coll

that compares to 61% in the united states and 54% in germany.ople in the uk think that our health is more important than our wealth. yes. compared to other countries, we are much more in favour of having a lockdown. it may be partly due to the fact we have a slightly less lockdown than countries like france or spain, but by and large, the general public are very keen on keeping lockdown for as long as it needs to be kept in place, and matt hancock us at the stay at home message is all well and good for the public and he is worried talking to early about leaving lockdown or lifting it to early could mean people take risks and we see a second weave of the virus. people seem very second weave of the virus. people seem very happy to stick to the government message and seem a lot listening to risk health over the economy. let's look at the express front page. we must all stay put a stop that's you too, boris. it's all right for boris johnson, isn't stop that's you too, boris. it's all right for borisjohnson, isn't it? he's got chequers to stay in. co

people worked trying to reach the united states from germany whose lives were in danger and who wererying in order to survive, they needed to obtain what the american journalists called a piece of paper with stamp. whether he lived or died frequently depended on whether you could obtain this document. i looked at one single community in the southwest germany, the jewish families in this village, particularly the horrifying balance november 1938, they all understand their only option is to get out of germany as quickly as possible. they all apply for american jesus and i describe the challenges they faced in getting the visas, some succeed and some don't. the people who don't, most of them end up being deported in 1942. i'm trying to connect this political stories, bureaucratic story and make it a human history. as a journalist in eastern europe and soviet union, are struck by the factk that the political debate in washington had very little to do with what's actually happening on the ground. i tried to connect the political story to the human story. on one side the obsession of natio

four days later germany and italy declared war on the united states. roosevelt had believed for sometime that germany posed the greatest threat to america's long-term security. when hitler set their war machines against the united states his need to respond was obvious. as the united states entered the war, the situation was grim. japan had destroyed much of america's west coast fleet. and now controlled vast areas of the pacific. in the north atlantic german submarines continued deadly campaign against supply ships bound for great britain. and in europe german armies have invaded the soviet union. winston churchill, the prime minister of england, america's strongest ally, traveled to washington to meet with roosevelt. together they planned a strategy to combat the axis powers. this began to pay off in june of 1942 as the alleys slowly stopped the expansion of the axis powers and began to take the offensive. in the epic battle of midway in june of 1942 was a major turning point. the u.s. navy destroyed four japanese aircraft carriers and ended japanese

in this study of remdesivir, more than 1,000 patients in the united states, spain, germany and other countries were assigned to remdesivir or a placebo which doesn't do anything. the placebo patients had 15remd recovery. that's a four-day difference. four fewer days in the hospital means four fewer days where something might go wrong on the ventilator, getting a hospital-acquired infection. the second is that it's an indication that remdesivir is doing something. they can take that knowledge, they can look at what it's doing. it's blocking an enzyme that's needed for replication and try to make other drugs that might do a similar kind of thing, or maybe there are other drugs that would go with remdesivir. this is not the end of the road. we are still at the beginning of the road. it's good that they've had this first step. dr. anthony fauci, the top infectious disease doctor in the u.s., says that now this means remdesivir will become the standard of care. it will become standard not experimental to give patients remdesivir. back to you. >>> i'm joined now by mohamed menuier, a virol

the united states recalls the ambassador to germany for consultation. in many other ways, our government response is limited and fdr's response is limited. he is asked in a press conference just a week, november 15th of 1938, whether he would recommend a relaxation of immigration restrictions. as you see, fdr says that's not in contemplation. we have the quota system. he speaks out. he recalls the ambassador actually at the urging of his secretary of labor, francis perkins. he extends the -- or waives the exploration date on visitor visas. there's no political will to try to liberalize the immigration system, the quota system in response. congress tries in a way. what you see is robert wagner, a senator from new york, and edith norris rogers introduce a bill known as the wagner-rogers bill, to let in 10,000 jewish children a year. outside of the immigration quota system. what you see is the american public is polled about this in 1939. should we be letting in refugee children from germany outside of the quota system? you see that two-thirds of americans
