In the movies you dont see me im concerned its only with more than 2000 coronavirus deaths is the worst affected country outside of china and with more than 3000 new infections in its an every day the burden on Hospital Capacity is almost overwhelming but the rate of infection has slowed slightly in the lumber the region epicenter of the countrys outbreak there at least there is a frame to the to quarantine measures are starting to show results. Aljazeera. China has reported just one new case in the last day in who pay the province where the outbreak began but elsewhere numbers a still spiraling despite the tough measures being taken in italy for example another 345 people have died in the past 24 hours that takes the total death toll to more than 2 and a half 1000 and more than 31000. 00 confirmed cases the death toll in spain is reach 491 after jumping by 182 in a single day it now has more than 11000 confirmed cases the virus has killed another 135 people in iran raising its death toll to 988. 00 and more than 16000. 00 confound cases but will tear on is issued its direst warning yes about the outbreak suggesting that millions could die if the public keeps ignoring the Health Guidance over this lack came from a journalist on state t. V. Who the public to listen to travel restrictions iran has also temporarily freed some 85000 prisoners in response to the pandemic and that includes the british iranian. Garri ratcliffe on monday crowds of conservative iranian stone 2 major shrines that have been closed because of the virus same as into iran and explains why some people havent been listening to the official warnings. This is really something that the government has been struggling with since the beginning iranians are so frustrated with their economic circumstances so frustrated with experiencing one crisis after another that when it comes to following the governments guidance regarding the coronavirus the government simply hasnt been able to get everybody on board now it has to be said slowly but surely you can tell the difference there are fewer iranians that are out on the streets there are more people that are following the government guidelines but this idea that millions of people could be impacted as we saw the news reader on state t. V. Say earlier today this is part of the kind of fear that Government Officials have been trying to instill in people of the consequences of not following through is this fact or fiction well we dont really have any Health Official or Government Official quoted here are standing behind this but medically speaking if you follow the epidemiology if the government is not able to get a hold of the spread of the virus throughout the country it could become a hot zone it could become a long term area of risk in which case there there is a chance it could affect millions of people the u. S.

We have to fight that invisible enemy that. I guess unknown but were getting to know to let better today the senate is taking up coronavirus legislation that includes free testing for those who need it as well as paid sick leave and family medical leave for work is affected by the virus. But the u. S. Is not just dealing with an economic crisis theres also a Public Health crisis the task force here the white house saying the next 2 weeks will be critical to blood the spread of coronavirus in the United States thats why theyre urging young people especially who perhaps feel that they made up be affected by all of this to heed the Public Health warning stay home if they can in order to make sure that they dont spread the coronavirus to more vulnerable americans thanks very much from the White House Committee held thank you kimberly well in the news in terms of the commercial impact of all of this the global Aviation Industry trade body saying the airlines could need up to 200000000000. 00 of help from governments the International Air transport association all i ottis at that companies are running out of money and Decisive Action is needed a European Airlines called on governments to let them defer tax payments as demand for travel has slums Singapore Airlines and emirates were among the 2 the airlines who cut more flights on choose say well better news on Global Markets today after several days of dramatic losses lets get that from kristen salumi in new york whats the latest there it seems as our markets are rallying on news of Government Intervention and the prospect of stimulus and support for households and businesses.

And particularly for the Business Community something that theyre interested in is efforts to prop up short term lending the fed announced more actions today to help businesses weather the storm on that front with this short term lending initiatives so all of that reassuring investors a bit i think but so lots of uncertainty lots of concerns Going Forward in those Major Industries that kimberly was talking about that have been suffering the most like hotels and airlines those stocks all remain down Oil Prices Remain down and.
