Here is a White House Correspondent kimberly how could developments on the testing front can lead because this has become a real point of contention. Is a real point of contention u. S. President being criticized potentially for not making the tests more available in order to keep those numbers artificially down to this is something that the white house has denied but certainly this has been a criticism and now the u. S. President taking aid at the Previous Administration under barack obama on the c. D. C. For the shortage of tests on social media as well the u. S.

Yeah thats absolutely right this is the 1st full day that new york city is under an emergency as the as the mayor of new york city declared late on thursday this is the front page of one of the tabloids the New York Post this is what new yorkers woke up to its a picture of the Empire State Building with the sign sorry were closed in essentially new york city might not officially be closed but unofficially it sure is lots of the cultural institutions around the city for one are closed let me give you an idea broadway theaters closed the metropolitan museum of art closed Carnegie Hall has been shut down the museum of Natural History shut down the new york city opera is closed as well that just gives you an idea now this state of emergency by new york city was implemented by the mayor so he can take more extreme steps if necessary he made it clear that the city is not under any quarantine but just the fact that he called a state of emergency has certainly rattled the many new yorkers many businesses are closed restaurants are for the most part empty many of the Office Buildings here in Lower Manhattan where im at right now of the World Trade Center area for the most part empty the streets pretty much a very quiet as well as quiet as you can get for a city such as new york city so theres a lot of worry here without a doubt right now of the numbers or 95 people in new york city with coronavirus 320 in the state in new york of both the governor and the mayor say that number could go up by the hour everyone is on is in the big apple new york thank you gabriel we head for the south now latin america to race the boat in the argentinian capital of buenos aires to write that even without coronavirus we could have talked about any number of latin american countries which were struggling with economic problems there must be huge concern about what corona virus could do. To those already struggling economies. Most definitely the governments around the region are getting ready to try to contain the spread of the virus mostly because the level of amount of infections in this part of the world is not yet high so what theyre trying to do right now is implemented state of emergency cancel flights and try to warn the population about what could come ahead but in spite of all of this and the consequent on the consequences that the virus could have involved thats highly connellys like the ones in latin america right now all eyes are in brazil president joey towards tonight or appeared on thursday on a Facebook Live wearing a mask he was saying that he had been tested for coronavirus and hes a spokesperson who had traveled with him to the United States to see daunte from have steps to deposit it he also said that he was waiting for the results theres not some reporting on local media that the president tested positive on the 1st test and that a 2nd one was carried out and that right now that were waiting for any type of confirmation local media is also saying that there was lots of tension in the air that they had called top military commanders and that the plane that the president was traveling in was contaminated however this cannot be confirmed it has not been confirmed by the president ial office in brazil of also not at least 64 years old hes our underwent 4 surgeries since he was tapped during the campaign trail he was waiting for a 5th one so he there was a big demonstration by his supporters to show their support for him and also to protest against the Supreme Court and against congress in brazil definitely the president ask his supporters not to gather this coming sunday because of the Current Situation not only in brazil but also and the rest of the world to as a burn going to sirees thank you for that quick word on iran as well which is an else new measures to fight the spread of coronavirus 85 confirmed there in the last 24 hours the total there now what 514. 00 with at least 11400. 00 confirmed infections. Irans really struggling with a lack of lifesaving equipment it has asked for an emergency 5000000000 dollar loan from the International Monetary fund. In teheran to take us through this one when we talk about new measures zain what are they welcome all the numbers continue to go up the number of deaths the number of overall cases continue to rise and in the last week iranian president Hassan Rouhani has taken a great deal of criticism from all corners of the political spectrum for his task force headed by the Health Ministry simply not being able to get a grip on the spread of this outbreak throughout the country so last night the Supreme LeaderAyatollah Ali Khamenei he ordered the opening the setting up of a new taskforce this one with a much more military slant it will be headed by the chief of the Armed Forces Major general mohammad but harry and after the 1st meeting of this task force earlier today buttery took to state media and announce some of the measures that the countrys military intends on taking as it gets more intimately involved on the ground in terms of combating this virus he said that in the next 24 hours iranians should expect military presence in major areas to try to control movements to try to control crowd sizes to try to police and prevent large crowds from forming and therefore putting a Security Point on the government guidance not to go out not to carry on in terms of personal movements throughout cities and countries so really this is a security step being taken by irans Supreme Leader to to empower the countrys military to take over from the civilian government were civilian steps to address this Public Health crisis simply werent working. With that update hes on scott from teheran for us thanks a. So were around the world with our correspondents there and now a few more nations how they are dealing with the spread of coronavirus russia 1st of all stepping up its efforts to contain the outbreak city authorities are now required to disinfect the metro cabins 4 times a day buses are also being cleaned each time they return to the death row the city has banned large public gatherings 34. 00 cases of the virus there but no one has died so what if. It is more about disinfection of course i also use hand protection tools and im using this mask to it protects looking at asia now and unlike some parts of the continent students in taipei are still actually going to school corona virus infection rates in taiwan remained relatively low but the government is increasing its disinfection measures and dad its a very special feeling i think that we can prevent bacteria from getting too close. To yeah we are less likely to spray us alive or on to other people we list likely to get infected easily. And this is the french capital paris where people are still using public transport but theyre taking a lot of extra care to protect themselves in the virus on friday the government banned any gatherings of more than 100 people. So i dont think their travel. Doing protection stuff and some i really dont know thats the reason you know we dont know how critical this harvest. Prevent these spent you didnt hear. But france will be going ahead with local elections on sunday the Health Minister is assured the process will be no more dangerous than a trip to the supermarket thats a quote on his Natasha Butler reports candidates vying to be the mayor of paris are now adjusting the way they campaign. The coronavirus was clearly on focus minds in paris as an us preside campaigned in the city to become mayor the former french Health Minister is the candidate for french president emmanuel macro centrist Party Republic on the moon of what so some people say there are fewer people on the streets i think are easier to being responsible for the use our replaced her partys 1st choice benjamin grieve over in february after he stepped down following a sex video scandal a late comer to the race opinion polls suggest trailing behind the front runners. One of the favorites is the incumbent socialist and you dont go is fighting for reelection promising to continue her battle against pollution in the city by making it greener. We are opening a new way to live in the city differently in a paris that respects nature spectral and that year they lived for 6 years edo goes run a city famous for its style but it has problems housing is expensive crime is on the rise and the streets are often dirty the main challenger is conservative candidate rashida daddy she promises to clean up the city and make it safer a Justice Minister under Nicolas Sarkozy the former president is backing her campaign. And his preside isnt the only candidate from the president s party who seems to be struggling in the local elections there are nearly 35000 mayoral seats and france but only a minority i expected to go back was way. The. Recent anger over macros Pension Reforms and months of yellow vest protests have damaged macros popularity and in turn his policies but those arent the only reasons because party was created to accompany his conquest of the presidency so that only 3 years ago and its a very long party that doesnt have. Prisons in. This small towns in the in the municipal level and so they dont have their parties they dont have the roots of local politics and local politics is a very specific thing that cross party was braced for the political consequences of the local elections but the covering of virus has shifted the focus people in france are closely watching the governments handling of the Health Emergency if deemed successful it may revive the partys fortunes and if a shadow what happens at the ballot box natasha aljazeera paris were conscious there is a lot of news about coronavirus from all over the world its a lot of numbers now so i want to do a bit of as we like to say news you can use and whats become known as social distancing it is a way to help keep infection rates down now even if youre young like me and symptom free in a country that doesnt have any confirmed cases you should really think about staying away from Public Events concerts crowded restaurants bars religious services places where you would be in close proximity to large groups of people now of course
