but a recent review of billing information in several states from the bio-tech data firm rubix life sciences, found blacks with symptoms like cough and fever were less likely to be given one of the scarce coronavirus tests. let's look at the numbers, in michigan 14% of the population is black but make up 41% of coronavirus deaths. in illinois, 15% are black, but account for 42 per cent of deaths. and just staggering numbers in louisiana where blacks make up 32 per cent of the population, but 70 per cent of deaths. earlier via skype, i talked to doctor leo seoane. the chief academic officer at oschner health in louisiana. he's also a critical care physician. thank you so much for joining me. how do you explain the over indexing of black people for mortality from covid 19? >> i think we're, we're, part of it is we're seeing a disproportionate share of african americans get admitted to the hospital, which are the higher risk group because of their comorbity conditions. so we looked at, at oxford, we looked at 1100 patients that we have treated throughout the greater new orleans area. 74% are af

science. barta is an enormously important organization but it's the head of the bio medical defense line.nk of it as they're in charge of gathering the weapons for what may becoming at us in a bio terrorism era or a natural pathogen. they are the front line in an effort like a virus that we've never seen before. they gather materials. they listen to the science. they mobilize advancement through clinical trials and on to the stockpile so americans are safe and secure about medicines and diagnostics and vaccines to remove the lead scientist from this very critical organization within hhs in the middle of what has to be the most difficult health issue that any of us have seen is just terrifying. it means we're trying to muzzle scientists and lean into some politics or somebody has an issue with hydroxychloroquine that they think it may be use l useful. it's not unusual to repurpose a drug. you have a drug used for malaria but it has to be trusted and tried and seen if it's effective. the nih said absolutely do not take this drug unless you're participating in a clinical trial. there are lim

bio—diverse nation has accelerated. yet the botanists believe the forest contains rare plants still unknown to science, some of which mayt frank gardner went with them. in the forests of colombia, nature is under attack. since the civil war ended in 2016, deforestation has skyrocketed. this team of plant scientist from the royal botanical gardens queue in london have come here on a mission to discover and save unique plant species before they vanish for ever. in 2016, the colombian government signed a peace deal with the farc rebels, who were largely based in the forest. now remote tracts of land have opened up, farmers, loggers and miners are scrambling for resources . miners are scrambling for resources. colombia is reportedly losing 3000 square kilometres of forest every year. translation: this is the first time this area is going to be explored by botanists or scientists. for so many years, conflict and criminality made this area inaccessible to outsiders. there in a race against time to try and save this forest. one of the local guides believes he's chanced upon something extraordinary. this, actually we don't know

bio me is executive director of the right of institutes the george washington school of medicine and health sciences she joins us now live via skype from washington d.c. good to have you with us what makes the president think that this drug this anti-malarial drug could be effective against the virus good question there has been some very minor evidence that actually has been not borne out in the i.c.u. settings and that this is helping it has not seemed to reduce the death rate but you know unfortunately the president does not rely on. she dismisses science and he just has a this day in for evidence he also talked about erythromycin an antibiotic but how on earth could an antibiotic work against a virus. well it's as if through my eyes so and and so sometimes the ways that medications war are not necessarily related to their primary mechanism of action so they may have some anti-inflammatory effects that are not necessarily anti-bacterial i can tell you that unfortunately as a result of sort of this problem there is now a national shortage of intravenous visits for my son which don't forget is use
