The 1st time since the coronaVirus Outbreak began the number of new infections outside china has exceeded the numb but within 37 countries have telly to 427 new cases of beijing says its counted 4 111. 00 earlier the World Health Organization want immediate action is needed to prevent it from becoming a pandemic where its widespread around the world but the infection rate appears to be slowing down and Mainland China where the outbreak began the virus is spreading through europe with new cases in france though the majority are in italy 378 confirmed infections are there and 12 deaths brazil has also just reported a cases latin americas 1st confirmed infection the 61 year old had traveled to italy earlier this month more than 81000. 00 cases have been. Globally from those about 2700 people have died lets go live now to our lesson america and it said lucy in human whos in santiago. The 1st case now is seen in latin america what more can you tell us. Yes this is something that was expected it was going to not be if but when the virus would reach this continent south america the 61 year old had come as you said from italy and now brazil has expanded its list of suspect countries people that will be presumably isolated or at least tested as soon as they land in brazil now this its been expanded to germany france australia the United Arab Emirates the philippines of malaysia as well as the other countries that we all know of of course such as china and south korea vietnam except for us so it is really very very worrisome not just in Brazil Health authorities in that country in the World Health Organization here in chile where i am are very very keen to see how the virus will react in the summer in the heat this is the 1st time that the virus has arrived in a country where its not cold or cool right now its 34 degrees here so that is going to be something that Health Officials will be monitoring very very closely another thing that people are warning about is not to his people this is a part of the world where everybody says hello not just by shaking hands but by kissing on one or both cheeks so people all over latin america are being warned to stop that practice as soon as possible possible rather because that will help to spread the virus people are already going to have to start living in a very different way even before this virus reaches the rest of the last in the. Lucio how prepared is it brazil and indeed the continent for corona virus to spread. Well that is a very very good question here in chile for example 26 people were quarantined yesterday according to the Health Minister as a quote from a cautionary measure these people had arrived from europe and from china theyre being kept at home and they must stay there for the next 14 days so there is really a sense that it is just going to it will start to arrive here very very quickly and in general latin american countries are not well prepared their whole systems their Public Health systems are underfunded understaffed and i know barely able to cope with general epidemics of the flu for example so theres a lot of concern here in chile for example passengers arriving now as of friday will have in the country as of friday will have to sign a sworn affidavit where they list the countries that theyve been going to but whats going to happen to the people here if and when this epidemic or rather this possible pandemic begins to spread that is the key question and Health Authorities are not giving very many answers that are going to keep people that are going to allow people to feel secure thats not an american thank you well as we just said the virus is spreading in europe geminis Health Minister says this country is at the beginning of an epidemic 18 cases have been confirmed but it is only remains the worst affected on the continent is in milan and has more on the containment efforts there. Its been expected that we would be hearing about more cases because there are more proactive measures being taken here to try to test people to try to diagnose cases of corona virus were also told by the Civil Protection agency that now the death toll is 12 in the 12 victim was in the lumbar the region hes a man of the age of 69 and that he had an Underlying Health condition most of the victims have been aged have been over the age of 60 and many of them in their eightys with fragile Health Conditions that have contributed to it to the fact that they got the coronavirus and died from it now one of the thing to mention that weve also been told that the army has now gone to those checkpoints those areas outside the red zones that are located in Lombardy Region and also invented to a region to try to ensure that people are not coming out of those quarantine towns while cars are not permitted to go in and out unless they have special permission to do so there have been residents who have been able to walk in and out of those town centers and the army now is involved to try and ensure that those containment measures are fully in effect and has not led and paris has and has more on the United States reported in france. Well we are learning more details from french Health Authorities and officials about this french citizen the 1st French National to die in france of the coronavirus there has already been one death in france before this it was a chinese tourist earlier this year now what french Health Officials say is that this was a 60 year old man he started having flu like symptoms 2 weeks ago he was feeling very sick but his health deteriorated in the last few days he was rushed to hospital in paris new died overnight to say to wednesday night he came from a region called walls which is north of paris he was a teacher and of course you can imagine that has raised a lot of concerned with others at his school with children parents other teachers as to whether or not he may have contaminated any people he came into contact with the only thing that might give some people a sense of hope is that he became sick just before the school broke up for its 2 week winter break so its thought that perhaps he didnt have as much contact as he might have had if this had happened during the term now of course the investigators are checking everybody that he might of had some contact with within the period that he was actually working iran has blamed the United States for spreading misinformation about the virus the government says the situation is under control that they said 99. 00 people have died and 130. 00 are infected including the deputy Health Minister the same years interrupt. During a weekly Cabinet Meeting iranian president Hassan Rouhani struck an optimistic tone saying that the reports about containing the coronavirus in iran are promising a taskforce set up earlier this week by the president including senior members of the government and armed forces he said are making gains in controlling the spread of the disease something that has become a major Public Health crisis here in the country he also addressed public concerns about whether or not the information coming from officials could actually be trusted this after a member of parliament representing the city of home where the 1st case was detected said the number of cases and deaths from this virus are far higher than official figures reported by the government heres what the president had to say about that and i dont mean. I emphasize that we dont manipulate the figures we know the increase no decrease them nor do we exaggerate or downplayed him ive told the Health Ministry to announce any figures they have this is a plot we see today in foreign propaganda recently a high ranking u. S. Official made a comment about coronavirus in iran that themselves are dealing with the flu 16000 died because of that the cea but they dont talk about it and now they are turning their attention to corona virus in iran earlier this week president Hassan Rouhani also said that the situation in the country could begin to normalize as early as saturday just a matter of days now but during a briefing by the spokesman for the countrys Health Ministry he said that government officials are expecting the number of coronavirus cases in iran to go up in coming days but other news now in indias capital remains on the edge 3 days of rioting killed 20 people there is a heavy security presence on the streets of northing stanley thats falling violent clashes over a new citizenship law that excludes muslims of the 200 people have been injured buildings were set alight and mosques were ransacked in the west writing that decades of this there is tiny but they isnt daddy he says the citizenship law is becoming an increasingly divisive issue. The major violent scenes are stopped at least for now and now theyre assessing the damage as you can see quite extensive in this part but also the human cost the death casualty figures are going up by the hour almost and Something Like 250 people have been injured and killed and now theres a mop up operation that has been a piece really because of women who were decided to stop their protest in jeffery bad at a station. After intense provocation by hindu nationalists now that violence is spin some of the worst that delhi has seen in decades and the casualties show that so theres a big deep rooted problem that has now overshadow what this whole matter was about this was about civil rights over the citizens Amendment Act but its being come in northeast delhi something about religion between muslims and hindus and thats not how it was this whole protest Movement Began because of across the board all religious denominations all minorities protesting about this new law which they say was racist now the problem is now this is being used as a kind of victory now by some of the hindu nationalists they said they wanted these women to be moved they were moved and now it sets a dangerous precedent what will happen in future if theres another protest will they do the same thing violence seems to work now weve had nothing from the Prime Minister mr modi until today 3 days arthur this whole thing started and he calling for calm hes calling for peace and harmony with be no peace and harmony here quite the reverse the problem is how can they rebuild now from this how can they regain the trust if you look at this damage its superficial compared to the deep rooted scars weve spoken spoken to people whove lost their loved ones hindus and muslims they have suffered their ones have been killed we dont know exactly who was responsible for the killings most of the people seem to be killed by gunshot wounds but some are. Also whove been stoned and beaten to the point where their injuries me meant they died so we dont know what the situation is the needs to be an inquiry human rights activists are calling for the government to actually take deeper stronger measures to find the root causes of this and find the people who were responsible and bring them to justice that we may be one of the 1st steps needed to bring these communities together again the delhi police have been criticised for its role in the handling of the violence critics say thats because the force is not accountable to the Delhi Government the Central Government controls the police force in delhi the local government has no power of the law and order the political divide in delhi is also adding to the tensions at the moment modis b j p is the party in power and the National Government the a. P. O. Common man party runs the local government in delhi the 2 parties have clashed in the past of the control of the Delhi Police Said on sari is a political analyst based in new delhi he says the signs of an escalation were there from the beginning and violence could have been prevented. The signs were there since for ages and from a 3 speeches there was a build up in there and up to the elections and then thereafter some very end from a tree anti muslim speeches given by none other than members some members of the ruling party chant the party and precious little was done to come up this had the had the Union Government acted in time this could have been prevented the Union Government for reasons best known to intent to themselves chose to look the other way why parts of delhi were burning and people were and to to come in we were going hammer and tongs at each other its only after the courts intervened on the 3rd day did did that they did this to Union Government to act and send the National Security adviser and send a very quick number of paramilitary to try and take control of the situation had this been done earlier had those who were making and film made 3 speeches held accountable perhaps this day would not have come to pass.
