Slow we take in more time we have to. Go back to work in a safe environment and the death toll decreasing 600 to 800 people a day is still too high and has to come down way down before me to feel safe to get back on the train or do anything for while the curve continues to flatten in new york in neighboring new jersey the 2nd most impacted state cases continue to climb today the state has more than 68000 cases and nearly 3000 deaths Governor Phil Murphy telling residents not to expect the lockdown rules to be lifted until june at the earliest reporting in new york Trinity Chavez are. We now go back to our breaking news as bottom reporting has postponed 75th victory day parade on the 9th of may as well as other mass bands honor the victory over the nazi regime as due to the high risk still posed by the current virus pandemic and this is what the president had to say. Older to change this postpone the rehearsal for the military march on red square and postpone all other Mass Gatherings to celebrate 75 years since the great victory. For war on this we go live now to our Senior Correspondent ryan garcia of what will happen now after the parade was post part. Well that they havent said yet but what we realize is that this wasnt an easy decision to make this was an incredibly important parade that was going to happen a host of World Leaders had been invited to attend this is the Diamond Jubilee of the defeat of hitlers germany on this day in the 9th of may 1945. Hitlers germany capitulated to the allies sides to read you know 75 years commemoration and this this was an event that is new to the school to be. President and to have to cancel it. Must the pool but you know let me if we did say that they have to win the race they have Public Safety against remembering the sacrifices that the country made during world war 2. Were now facing a tough choice the 9th of may is a special day for us but the life of every Single Person is priceless to hold the parade on the 9th of may we need to start rehearsals now but the risks posed by the epidemic as well as its peak which we havent post yet is still high thats why i cannot stop the rehearsals for the parade under the public gatherings. It was still up in the air until until this last moment with just weeks to go until the parade itself russia was spared in the initial stages of the pandemic infection numbers here had been very relatively low and there had been you know there had been hope that perhaps with follow the scenario that happened in singapore in south korea where the infection was contained unfortunately it is growing more and more people every day in russia becoming infected and we havent yet reached a peak. Veterans groups had urged that mutant and the government to postpone to perhaps Council Public events public facilities the parade itself. The safety reasons and eventually the government looking at the data it had the spread of the pandemic decided that you know its better to postpone it here that it hasnt been council it has been postponed we will perhaps expect some sort of commemorations during the night that may give us perhaps televised speech is. That there certainly will be events just not public was not the parade that self which is grown in scope and which is happens where you live for a quarter of a century north of the march of the immortal regiment and this is this is perhaps more important than the military parade at celtic where hundreds of thousands of ordinary russians march through the red square behind me holding portraits portraits of their family members of their relatives and sisters grandparents grandmothers who died fighting the nazi war machine which was which was stopped even its majority in russia which is where the last of these moves that this firepower as a tremendous cost to russian lives of millions of people died stopping him stopping his armies the battles the sacrifice that russia made was tremendous it was unimaginable and uncountable and the memory has preserved it has been preserved in russian people remember the tremendous suffering of those years the hunger of the deaths the the agony of the war and the government has made a point by showing that by the showing its latest military hardware its jets its troops a demonstrating to the people that this will never ever happen again that russian. Will be ready to repel any invade in the future and that the people that the children of the world would keep in the country safe and secure from the their children wouldnt have to do what previous generations when so in this case again the parade house be. Related the 2020 the march of the immortal regiment as well as. We ought to expect. To see these in commemoration of some form or another but the sensible thing the sensible decision has been made were in the middle of the veterans themselves and saying do this you know the new point carrying on with the march through the red square. This announcement has been much anticipated and today we finally have it r. T. Senior correspondent ryan breaking down that news story for us thank you. And the 75th anniversary of victory day parade has been much anticipated by russians and the veterans themselves of course some who are now in their ninetys or even older share their stories with us in september 941 nazi forces surrounded leningrad now called Saint Petersburg and that started one of the longest sieges in history during those 872 days up to 1500000 people died of hunger or disease or romanian go live through that appalling time. Kind of you have. One putin americans here who include you in your mobile portion yes you heard your call you wish you only finished off the cold when the school. Was in there was good you had spiritual nature of the uk. If you were going to be able to. Talk to huge car to youngsters who. Come to school. You to be warm you do here you are you you i have watched her look. In her. Right you push to put you very very tough you the motion of you is why do you try to say you know what you have failed motors. Do you know which i know with you my life that all those close to. Michael enough of the truth seeker lady. Specially to me her future do you think you will scare of life or you are. Cruel cruel croak croak croak stay out where you she will run you. Now across lives here bernard rescued professor at the French National institute of languages and Eastern Suburbs ations for more on this very welcome to the program and now something to get across thats very important in the story is that me the 9th is one of the most important dates in russias calendar so what do you think this postponement really says about the gravity of the situation that were facing. Yes of course its. Very very important and its very very important also to cancel it to show got to debunk them because really its their use serious thing. The Russian Society takes care of its feet from them especially of course of the older ones and. That wasnt logical. Decision for the russians and also for if even to a guest to you would have come to russia after the death whod. Come to russia anyway because of their countrys also completely. Now in the frame does go ahead to expect to see a scaled down version president did promise that it will happen or we hope so yes of course a. Force should have been demick will be will be overcome some days. Celebration can take place later after all we have to think called dutch. In june for example that will be i mean very serious departs down treaty and later it will be anniversary of liberation by soviet army of northeast china and korea north korea so you know there are other moments of 2nd world war which will be judged will happen and maybe it will be an occasion to remind people died to just 2nd world war didnt finish only in europe and and also was finished by it was done treaty which is very important old still for peace after the 2nd world war. And this event also usually includes a fair amount of International Participation donald trump was originally planning to attend this years parade and moscow and we have seen that the 2 countries have been reaching out to one another and calling for more cooperation between the 2 them during this pandemic they expect to come over later in the year. We hope so i probably will be trump will be quite busy with the and actually United States i dont really know if you will have much time to come to russia later but anyway what is important is. The idea that they have to leave. Derry Something Like it they dont it looks like between mosco and washington and we can only be happy about that because were needs of course but were also peace. At the same time the leaders of the collective Security Treaty Organization which includes russia and 5 other ex soviet states were invited to attend this years parade expect to see them there as well and try and make this into a show of support of kolob camaraderie yes it will be very very important especially for the ukraine resident he comes and also it was a good form of polish president but once i would come to moscow so all these people are very important as it not only for symbolically reason but also for political reasons and we cant. Know International Relations are changing. Maybe you know maybe the time that maybe is over so that you dr kobi ration International Cooperation will prevail over a new cold war after which you know we had a not very sorry go very long way. The most important commemorations the celebration is the veterans themselves and i went. We did see a russian war better ation organization calling for the events to go ahead and be postponed do you think that influenced president putins decision or was this coming either way i see you do its very important of course and i guess i suppose that there were some concrete patients before taking that decision but if so of course very important. Veterans are good people and we know if endemic hes really in a space you dont need to be so it gives not been a catastrophe for you know some people who have been infected during these events. Because you know you i mean theres a real. Need to do dictionary for nazi germany is that it and then the various united and and and whole and if you dont have to be tragic you people who would have been. Dying because of that when you were its so i think that its very raw cheese and very humid and good to see. The 2 biggest parts of this event are the parade and then later in the day there is the immortal regiment and ever since 2012 countries around the world have taken part in those type of events honoring their relatives who fought in the war anyone who died or sacrificed themselves in that fight could those still happen later this year of people around the world still finding a way to go ahead and how the moral regiment. I hope youre not because the deflation which date have to be a has to be invented but anyway i told you there is the anniversary of the pledge damn treaty there is the anniversary of deliberation that china and korea and there are a lot of moment when we can link. The celebration and the immortal definitely definitely was doing was dissing the end of 2nd world war and. You know maybe it said its also symbolic dives you know when we think about war and use reason its very logical reason we are thinking mostly about europe. After all there wasnt a 2nd war glory in. Asia is becoming more and more important in the world so its very important to remember. Chinese koreans and other people in asia where is suffering and where liberated by soviet army. For an address professor at the French National institute of languages and eastern solicitations thank you for your time and your comments. Lets now take a moment to look at the latest figures and the kohen 1000 pandemic on the 2100000 cases have been registered worldwide and 142000 lives have been lost United States has the highest death toll followed by italy and spain and so far more than half a 1000000 people have recovered from the virus globally. France has recorded its worst single day death toll from cope with 19 more than 1400 fatalities were announced on wednesday bring the total to 17000 according to the Health Minister the spike in the numbers is due to a delay in reporting after the 3 day easter week and meanwhile the nationwide shutdown is taking a very toll on the economy i charlotte n. C. Reports. This week president told from the look down wood and on may 11th while that means citizens will apparently be able to leave their homes and some businesses will we start thats not the case but you are some Lonely People however Public Places restaurants cafes and hotels cinemas and museums will remain closed at this stage with no end date for when they can reopen some restaurants and cafes are starting to stress this year. Through all the challenges that. I never arisen over the years with. Strikes so make sure the terrorists attacks and so we can only go in confidently. What is happening now really has. To the war where we actually do anything Small Businesses cafes such as this pallet and and restaurants are seen as being the life blood of the National Economy of france and that is particularly true in paris when they were shut down as being no one essential business is back in march some claim that that would herald an economic catastrophe and those warnings are serving true the worst figure in france is 945. 00 was minus 2. 2 percent in 2009 after the financial crisis of 2008 we will probably be very thought beyond minus 2. 2 percent this year the government has announced packages worth tens of billions of euros to help save jobs and prop up the economy but poor baron again says though this is a did his employees own this like himself have been left in a tight jam. Theres been no is that as owners were not salaried per se with both companies so at this stage there has been no help for us this is the 1st time in my life that there is that strengths of going to pay my mortgage home. You know food on the table and so i guess the stress of that is real they are a Business Owner and i looked at it. Months probably before we were. In trouble business is feeling the pressure can apply for loans but pool says the interest free period is only a year and he doesnt think taking on debt with so much uncertainty is prudent they can give his mood loans to the cows come home. But it is what we dont want to do is get into too much debt because then i had this idea that it was very hard to get out of it i think what would help us is that instead of just freezing sense of security just basically saying hey look you dont have to pay. His debt and thats probably one of my biggest expenses is a sense of security since they came out and said look see you at the basis of security at all and that would give us the kind of hope that once we get back home we dont have that coming off. Each month when cafes and restaurants reopen they may also have to contend with full fee what tourists that will certainly hit hard hit in paris now added to that concern is that even the locals may be feeling the pinch from the recession and less likely to part with a catch so perhaps treat such as a specialty coffee or eating out may be off the menu putting even further strain on Small Businesses such as these poll describes himself as being an entrepreneur and he told me that with the right help his business will pull through even if that means adapting and changing how they operate. But for that to happen it needs to start with one key ingredient clarity from the government so they can say that they are open for business charlotte even ski auti paris paris and the u. K. Are facing a similar crisis have been shut for almost a month now and once landlord in norwich posted a video showing a sad sight o. Gauge oh oh my god thank you and there you have it cagas of beer tipped down the drain according to some estimates 15000000 pints will go to waste if they walk down continues through the summer we heard from the man in that video philip cutter who explained why he had to dump his supplies the problem is that we had beer. And you just know that bacteria we just gave vent to dead in our cellars so we had to work on the drain just to be able to dispose of it in that short period time that was 5050 gallons or so being the rest of the big and on saturdays we look at that almost a 1000 gallons of that replicate across the country just when you think it would get into the water system in the short term we can certainly look at. Our bills and people will float for probably about 6 bombs but weve been well established a fair number of years i worked in since the age of 15 and that was 33 years ago. That there has been fading for as long as well established have been quite a good cash flow so they all did really really struggle. With british pubs and king tourists science clothes normally busy science are looking deserted at this point the chairman of the campaign for real alan a cantata believes that many businesses wont make it through the crisis. Like when we get through this crisis start to see. The problem but no one of them is probably going to reopen the new surely so we could see if they do you know sort of the pubs available in an area d we could see some of the big independent not reopening because its just not fun its you dawdle for the vegetable we could see some of the bigger red. Shirts and because a good large cities just caught by the business because of the you know the hates that still call the day they did crew. Their shop and that some of the relief that the government its getting to 2 businesses in this country doesnt apply to all of the pubs especially those big ups in more expensive parts who have got rights but use they dont call it they dont qualify for some of the regulation. Business rates really the government has given to Small Businesses so only expect. Some of the pubs not to reopen. Here in russia more than 3000 new cases of coke in 1000 have been registered over the past day or brings the total to nearly 28232 people are known to have died from the virus some new measures came into force this week in moscow anyone with a valid reason for leaving their home needs to carry a pass meanwhile there is a Large Scale Research effort going on nationwide to find potential treatments for carbon 19 we heard from 2 specialist. Thank you given any antigenic substances for a molecules are identified by the immune system to be removed by antibodies so when an antigen gets into the body sooner or later it will lead to the creation of antibodies and thats the basis of vaccination the use of a vaccine requires an active immunity which can respond to a low strength microorganisms injected into the body so that antibodies can develop the same process goes on in the body of an infected person so when we use the plasma of a recovered person were creating a kind of serum that contains a large number of already developed antibodies its passive immunotherapy which is then expected to remove the virus at the moment its the only 18 logical treatment for the infection and its difficult to say how many people it could save its also a question of recruiting donors production the correct implementation there are still many open questions because theres not enough experience of that method in use. Sometimes antibodies from one person can cause serious complications because as you understand blood plasma and can say not only copied 19 antibodies but also antibodies to a large number of other superficial antigens also one persons antibodies could cause a kind of an auto immune side effect thats why plasma transfusion will be used only for the seriously ill when it can possibly help rather than harm.

International coming to you live from the russian capital thanks for joining us this hour. We start with our breaking news lot of here putin has postponed moscows 75th victory day parade on the 9th of may as well as other mass events to honor the victory of the nazi regime as due to the high risk still posed by the corona virus pandemic this is what the president had to say i would change to postpone the rehearsal for the military march on red square and postpone all of the Mass Gatherings to celebrate 75 years since the great victory. For all the details we cross live to our Senior Correspondent rob gusty of what will happen now after the parade was postponed. What weve been given no specifics as of yet left absorbed the fact that for the 1st time in a quarter of a century the parade has been canceled obviously for the public good but there had been so much expectation this is the Diamond Jubilee this is 75 years since the capitulation of hitlers nazi germany to the allied forces in berlin which was the capitulation side of the surrender of a side at midnight the 9th of may 1945 and for it to be counseled just a few weeks to go ease is to be fair a little shocking i mean we will expected we will thought that it could happen but now that it has happened its worth understanding how important this is the russians it is a monumental occasion every year which brings together millions of russians of political affiliations political stripes and colors something that they can unite around a common heritage a common sacrifice but the world is as it is and you know the government was faced with a very difficult choice they obviously waited and waited and waited to see how the pandemic would develop in the early days russia was spared the worst of it there had been few infections and there were hopes that perhaps we would follow a different an asian style scenario where the infection was contained at least temporarily unfortunately the infection was growing and Gladney Putin himself said that he didnt have the rights to take this risk. We are now facing a tough choice the 9th of may is a special day for us but the life of every Single Person is priceless to hold the parade on the 9th of may we need to start rehearsals now but the risks posed by the epidemic as well as its peak which we have post is still high thats why i can also. The rehearsals for the parade and of the public gatherings. Theres a lot of speculation leading up to this with regards to would the russian government cancel the event was blown it will perhaps cut down lead certain segments the much of the mood will regiment that was that was in the limelight because that is hundreds of thousands of russians marching down the red square behind me shoulder to shoulder holding portraits who treats their grand fathers of their grandmothers of their relatives moved russian families lost a relative joining the 2nd boat. Tens of millions of people died stopping the nazi war machine the nazis the nazis lost most of the troops most of their firepower on the Eastern Front the sacrifice the tremendous suffering the agony of those years ease still fresh in peoples minds minds and hearts soo many lives lost but you know the country would forget this any in any decade soon and for this you know its as i said always an overwhelming affair overwhelming not just because of the you know the its the 1st day of spring since it well one of the 1st days of spring weather gets the country comes together everybody united behind a common cause commemoration of the past commemoration of the sacrifice that the country makes the military portion of the parade whether the government highlights its latest and best in military armament as a guarantee to russian citizens that what happened during the 2nd world war will never happen again that the country will never have to suffer as it did in those years and that any invader future invade will be repelled now that that has been counseled you know most people will understand obviously were in the middle of a pandemic moscows empty. Millions of people are sitting at who the gravity of the situation is. Really some kids of the public and people are staying at who is this veterans the veterans themselves they had various veterans groups very very few of them left precious few of them urged the government to go to the events and they obviously did we have to cherish them and save them it is this new point you know putting peoples lives in danger as we said nevertheless we ought to expect commemorations on the night that maybe they will be public ones but theyll be televised ones theyll be speeches theyll be shows theyll be fireworks fireworks. And eventually there will be the parade there will be the march of the immortal regiment where again hundreds of thousands of russians millions across the country can walk together shoulder to shoulder there are a portrait of the family members of the grandfathers and says this food to keep this country free. Now there will surely be nothing but support for the decision thats come down today but it is shocking non the last r. T. Is a modesty of thank you for that report now the 75th anniversary of victory day parade has been much anticipated by russians and the veterans themselves of course some who are now in their ninetys or even older share their stories with us from 1941 onwards allied powers sent ships loaded with weaponry and other supplies to the soviet union and what became known as the arctic convoys the vessels sought out from the u. K. Iceland and north america and skirted the coast of occupied norway to reach russias far north britons arnie davis served in the convoys heres a story. There i was in this side as song really guy was at so im churchill who say it was one of the worst journeys in the world and. Most respect for them. Did not i dont know began. And indeed was always well we say he summed up places i was starving starving to death. And. Up into a sad a cemetery where they just mans of earth where they local was dull eyed and i just saw a bear with them then no nines they just numbers. There was 27000000. 00 russians would during the war. And where their sacrifice and the sacrifice of days russian convoys there will never been one the only regret of dumb spite russian. You know. Quite happy. To reply to any less is that you with the same. I mean just our pride as a wife right. Now for further analysis across live to author and russia analyst Martin Mccully may 9th is a huge huge event here and russia especially in moscow its really hard to over stress or what it means to russians so what does this postponement say about the situation that were facing at the moment it means that they could really maurice. Issue serious that the victory parade cannot go ahead because hes a shuttering go through hundreds of thousands of russian citizens the congo ahead of the month of may. Because the 9th of may the victory of the judge in the 124 ranks with that you really lose. A 917 is it too great event in russian soviet history was enormously important but the group of guys takes president. Present put him say its too risky because there are veterans some veterans must be in their ninetys but. They would be really high risk if they had to place to park the truck bridge it is better for them to stay home now and perhaps the parade would come later this year. Be postponed until next you know when that does happen and president clinton did make a point of hoping to say that the prayed and they want to rush him it will take place in this area just later on once things have been war contain when that does go ahead do expect to see a more scaled down version or will they go all out as they usually would. There were the russians brilliant when it comes to staging a demonstration staging spectacle and therefore you can guarantee it will be something which everybody would say look at it hey while that is something very special because its not taking place on the ones im a bigger than one to make a symbolic day. And i remember it because we got a day off from school on the day when the victory was proclaimed and so to the average russian it will be. A slight disappointment but i think that will make up not because emotion regimens only those who have a relative lost relatives in the war they would like to parade and they were given the opportunity and now perhaps you would think in a species date and the stewards would be guessing which is the motion species they between now and december you could actually take. The victory of the red army in moscow in the moscow almost go in the winter of 1441. 00 as it was a turning part of the wall or perhaps it is numbers to make but the main thing i go small im event which is president. To work with him approval why not a victim of revolution why not the. Number so early date to come into play and it will be here the president you know who can and will decide which date is the most suspicious one because i believe he will very special day the day which has effectively had greater than the day itself its symbolic it will be a symbolic day and symbolic victory and the great victories of the red army began in moscow in the winter of 14142 and then. Many 43 young boys. They may be going to lose their Business Today because because the people. Didnt pray in central asia in georgia hes going to disappear. And last night is very fond. Of all this run to be strong. They were looking forward to it and i suspect that the whole of the. World is a picture of this place which was a stunning victory for. The rich remember. And to honor the dead i want you to remember that some of the right for the soldiers died for everything. Without. The british and americans would not have one of the family could not have been defeated without the participation he played the major road into the thick of it. And it they paid a very heavy price for. Not having a price too big nose by all the contests with american canadians but british. Didnt do this. Before. Going in that light was originally planning to attend this years may 9th parade and moscow but had to cancel of course obviously and these events usually do have a very significant International Participation aspect to them they expect trump to come up later in the year. It would depend on the agreement lars. And demi because its very very bad in america one doesnt know where and america will become free of it. And he would love to be willing to leave United States going to you can be assured of danger to him or to the people with him that they could actually carry this this virus with to russia and therefore the far visitors who are attending the great prairies christian abrasion would also not be screened to make sure that. They are not kind of that kind of the guards and so therefore its going to become a better problem but also itll be a very very symbolic one trump would like to be sad because you have to get patients and this is one of the big occasions of the 2020 and hed like to be there but because hes got an election to waste and the election. And cant he contemplate on nothing but he would like to get there and he was not good. You know the russians will not invite him until as i said hes not he couldnt possibly or. Just couldnt possibly bring with them any of the dollars. But timing will likely be everything weve been speaking with author and russia and less martin a colleague thank you for joining us on the program today thank you. Lets take a moment to look at the latest figures in the kobe 1000 pandemic more than 2100000 cases have been registered worldwide and 142000 lives have been lost the United States has the highest death toll by evilly and spain and so far more than half a 1000000 people have recovered from the virus globally. When childrens fun has more of a possible resurgence of measles due to the covered 1000 pandemic according to unicef millions of children are at risk of missing their vaccines follows World Health Organization guidelines issued in late march saying immunization should be postponed measles is an easily preventable viral disease according to w h o target at least 95 percent of people need to be vaccinated though many countries could fall short of that target if quarantine measures continue we heard from robin and the chief of in musician at unicef he says any vaccine delays must be temporary these 117000000. 00 children that we estimate are going to miss so doing missiles vaccination but with the next several months. Those children that will miss out on because planned mosque campaigns have been rescheduled or or temporarily suspended why have they been temporarily suspended because we do not want our delivery of immunization. To contribute to the spread of called it so we recommended a temporary suspension of these mosque and bring in addition to campaigns routine delivery of the United Nations services are also being employed so in addition to me those children are not getting vaccines for other diseases that deuterium protest is polio and so on so you know this our statement gives a snapshot into a much bigger problem that. We have in immunization and a sign from the musicals theres a whole list of diseases that could reappear according to the n. G. A. V. I. I. In fact Seen Alliance include polio and cholera problem and he again says that after the current pandemic is over countries must not lose sight of other infections. If you talk about the entire world we estimate that there are. Approximately 20000000 children. That are either unvaccinated or incompletely vaccinated so these 20000000. 00 are unprotected to the end to the range of vaccine preventable diseases this is in the pre corbett context this bigger is going to rise. Considerably and we rise more and more the longer this disruption persists the planning needs to start now what we dont want is is. You know a country affected by call that 19 recovering from the call that 19 outbreaks and then faced with an outbreak of vaccine preventable disease are advised to to parents is you know depending on what country you live in depending on what the. Situation is you know follow the you know Public Health interactions you know provided by your ministries of health as soon as these restrictions are lifted. Please give record of what the scene dos your child might have missed and please go out as soon as possible to your nearest facility. To receive these vaccines the United States has registered 2400. 00 deaths from car covered 1000. 00 and the past 24 hours and the highest single day figure so far and we think total loss of life to more than 20000. 00 nationwide according to official data at least 27. 00 doctors and nurses have died from the by rest but media reports quote much higher figures from medics have taken to the streets blaming the government for the severe shortage of protective equipment.

Medical supply firms in the usa matters are being made worse by tariffs on chinese products and the urging President Trump to lift the restrictions are the story. As the us emerges as the global epicenter of the coronavirus pandemic donald trump is Standing Firm on his america 1st policies sticking to a trade war with china over urgent and essential medical supplies that are now running short everyone has been discussing the requirements for more vents but no one is discussing the need for patients when they are on the vents the sedatives and the things and paralytic agents demand and no supply partly due to a 25 percent tariff thats been imposed d and the trumpet ministration is not willing to completely lift it some of the goods produced in china are essential and cannot be replaced for example youve got chinese made fabric in bed sheets these sheets are desperately needed because hospitals have dramatically increasing the number of beds available for the in spate it surge in coded 1000 patients some special medical equipment for anesthesia cannot be produced without built in ventilators that are made in china at this point the demand is 10 times what is available and the price of Hand Sanitizer has also gone up due to u. S. Tariffs. At the end of the day the consumer alten with police having to be price gouged and pay a kings ransom for something we desperately need to give them and they cant afford to live without so sadly the tariffs have continued to drive into the pockets of february American Consumer all the companies that are pushing for the terrorists to be lifted saying that its necessary to fight the pandemic an american lives are at stake the u.
