Welcome. Its good to have you with us as coronavirus cases worldwide crossed 110000 mark today on the program well look at if anything can be learned from the country but the outbreak began china we all remember these scenes from late january early february 2 new hospitals built in under 2 weeks in the epicenter of the outbreak all part of what the World Health Organization described as the most ambitious and aggressive disease containment effort in history and effort the Global Health body worked its part of a report dubbed Health Experts submitted last month after a visit to china ill be speaking to an expert who was part of that team shortly but 1st heres more on chinas response not all of which has been production travesty. Gann here at this life food market in china a mysterious virus born in shops triggering a wave of misses the internet soon failed with pictures of hospitals out breaking point and the body bags piling up on buses. Brought to the world by citizen journalists risking life and liberty. Mark you are not even scared of death you think im a communist party. China scrambled its massive resources in the most ambitious containment efforts ever seen. This is something all Chinese People are involved in each person will pitch in and will play their part. Health workers from across china headed to the front lines of the outbreak putting themselves in harms way. Of course were worried and so are our relatives. But were nurses and will do our job as long as we wear the uniform the scope of chinas response is unprecedented new medical centers built in days. Universal temperature monitoring controversial strict distancing rules that included locking down a city of millions helping to stop the spread. Meticulous Contact Tracing and 10000. Aggressively traced every pass in the coronavirus patient had been in contact with. Hundreds of thousands were tested at fever clinics like this scientists returning from a Fact Finding Mission praised the efforts. This is a rapidly escalating epidemic in different places that weve got to tackle super fast to prevent a pandemic its actually what china demonstrates is where this goes is within the control of our decisions to apply this kind of rigor and approach to this disease i expect say that china is a blueprint for the world but the question is can be and will be follow it. Professor david fisher is one of us an investor of singapore and he was part of the double team that visited china in february professor fisher thank you for joining us the report commends china for the kind of response it had to order corona Virus Outbreak my question to you is is the world ready to follow the china book. Well thats a good question dear ish in fact one of the comments was that we had Major Concerns of whether the world was ready and some of the interventions that were acquired in china. Really work required a lot of Community Engagement and a lot of foreigners the decisiveness and we thought some countries could struggle. Would you like to mean these countries it is most of the world ready to follow the china response you know that the world is full of countries with completely different contexts so you know i think the countries that are being taken by surprise you know that the ones with many cases at the moment. You know in many ways the unlucky ones they were the 1st ones tested and more and more now the people can say what happened in italy which is not completely different to what happened and move on compared to whats happening in iran or south korea you know these countries were tested very early and and. Other countries i think have got the opportunity to learn from what happened in china but also from whats happening in these other countries and and try and have the preparedness in place so that they dont follow likewise much along the lines of a trial it clears effectively imposed a nationwide lockdown would you say of turbulent on the Current Situation of the number of cases worldwide that there are other countries that should have potentially imposed on lockdown by now and they havent. Its really about whether youre able to bring the interventions one of the major interventions is early case detection and identifying the contacts and being able to follow them up closely enough so that if their case if they become cases then we can stop that chain of transmission because theyre being identified early and any date in many cases isolated even before the symptoms began so. You need to have sort of these more drastic measures such as lock downs i think when the number gets to the point that you physically cant track everybody anymore so its like stay still because we can only. Just as a final question if there are certain measures or would recommend to governments around the world which would those measures be that should definitely be followed in the event of corn or virus or are bricks. So it might surprise you to hear my answer but to me the biggest measure is Community Engagement if the community is not on board with the response then this cant be were the solution is in the community and thats because spread occurs through that immunity and if people dont have that that sort of social responsibility to be part of the solution then any government is going to struggle governments need to provide the context tracing and they and the the overall surveillance the enhanced approach to testing the easy availability of testing ideally for a testing. But governments can do that but its the communities that need to have to say ok when im sick im not going to go out but if i do have to go up im going to wear a mask and im going to cop into my own work and im going to wash my hands frequently and im going to stay away from from people as much as i cannot not know go indoors to large large gatherings because thats where a lot of these sort of larger outbreaks occur president fisher will have to leave ever the very big of thank you so much for joining us. My question. The United States has begun withdrawing its troops from afghanistan following the terms of a droll deal with the taliban but on 13000 american troops are stationed in the country or us when she Spokesman Says if we carry out conditions based reduction of forces by about 40 percent over the next few months and america is trying to keep up the International Momentum the u. S. Has called for a vote today in the u. N. Security Council Backing its deal with the taliban but political cocktails in kabul threatens to detail the next crucial step intro of peace talks on monday incumbent president of danny to the far right and his political rival. Held inaugurations ronnie was declared the winner of septembers election but abdullah has alleged alleged Election Fraud heres what both leaders had to say at their viral ceremonies last any funny so i ask for my political rivals to come and serve this nation together shoulder to shoulder. That i need. Morhaime a shot we are and have always been prepared for negotiations. We work for the unity not the division of afghanistan not that i dont see not just some of it done by journalist a leader at the feet whos following developments in afghanistan and the good to have you with us now both a show of danny and i do love the us sounding conciliate tree yet both of them have declared themselves president s of gunnison surely somebody has got to give. This is it will disagree actually what people are wondering because now its been 24 hours since both inaugurations took place. And no one knows whats going to happen you know there is a lot of fear that when dr abdullah would go to his office stock thats that he occupied as the chief executive for the last 5 years that there might be police at the door that he might not be allowed in and if such a thing happens that it could lead to some kind of standoff so far nothing like that has happened but there is still the fear that if not today possibly tomorrow or the day after. And its just really this question of you know one person you know one person had theyre not eurasian the other and theres theyre both claiming to be president. And what does that actually mean politically in any in those sort of the realistic sides and what does it also mean for the interest of god talks are supposed to get on the road i mean what is the future run of the government together after an election. This is the philosophical question that arises from people people are saying look if you want to sit there and talk to the taleban and you are the 2 you know leaving the cracks in the country and you and you are literally holding parallel inaugurations you know what does that mean for coming together to talk to the enemy you have a common enemy but you know can you joining in in positively sort of counteract that enemy and talk to that enemy in a way to come to a peace and to come to an agreement you know for the last 56 years theres been a lot of talk of disunity amongst the trial will a lot on and now the taliban are sort of you know making fun of that claim saying ok you said we were and this is not unified look at you to your both you know the leading democrats of this country and look at the state youre leaving it in.
