Difference. It would. Be more Infectious Diseases experts have watched with alarm at whats happening here the director general of health has warned of a possible 3rd wave of infections if people dont obey the governments order to restrict their movements malaysia has confirmed its 1st decades and reported a sudden spike in covert 19 cases in the last few days many linked to a 4 day gathering of muslim missionaries at a mosque near kuala lumpur 16000 people from malaysia and abroad were there the government says its managed to trace more than 8000. 00 of them so far but already those who attended the event have carried the virus back to 6 of the Southeast Asian countries elsewhere astray as Prime Minister made an unprecedented announcement we are writing the travel ban on the strivings to level 4 for the entire world. That is the 1st time that has ever happened in astride his history the travel advice to every stride is do not travel abroad do not go on.

Well many major religions have been limiting large gatherings saudi arabia banned muslims from visiting the holy site of mecca pope francis is Easter Service will be held without a public audience but despite calls for social distancing many are still flocking to religious events seeking comfort possible for jolie is a professor of theology and religious studies at Villanova University he joins us now live via skype from philadelphia professors good to have you with us to what extent is the current pandemic exposing a disconnect between religion and science especially in countries where religion is law. This is a very important issue because there are some countries were is that religion hes in charge of that display surely or not government and if theres a clear disconnect because these these regimes of irans or saudi arabia they are eager to use technology for civilian regular purposes but the science. Because its a threat to the system of truth. That supports were injured by this pandemic hes regretting this because its not just using technology its also believed in what Scientists Say which hes east. Of the gathering of worship is a big test for all of them and as he said many religious authorities have fallen into line with the scientists i mean can science ever fully persuade religion to embrace new evidence as it as it comes to light how does science persuade religious authority to do the right thing as far as Public Health is concerned. So this is a double edged sword because on one hand theres the old problem of water ease the separation of tasks in the legion and science as Galileo Galilei is going to lay says 4 centuries ago the bible and scripture or we just tax theyre supposed to to tell us how to good to have them and not out of the heavens go and so that is the old problem and now theres a new problem because all religions are ravaged by 3 so called the United States culture wars and allegiance fundamentalism or conservatism versus liberalism and there are many reasons niggers bad as modern as they claim to be they are dismissing the facts on the ground myras as a conspiracy when liberals of sciences and this is clearly a new face of the old problem of the relationship between science and faith and religion a some religious traditions more prepared to bend to scientific at an evidence one of those well and eve is complicated because. Dad has to go to changes because all Major Regions and judaism christianity east. And alone he sciri all the cliched science of using science but lately all of that and they have fallen victim to the temptation of rejecting science as a whole because hes mother because hes secular. Problem eastlands personal to all who egyptians in different ways we mean the same Common Shares there are different situations. Etiology income police our consulate well they do not buy d scrums and this odd little churches in the euro or the United States they are much less culpable and theyre showing signs of distress ok so thats thats religious authority what about the faithful as we heard many are still flocking to religious events and shrines seeking comfort why does the faithful sick so doggedly to the belief that the prayer in only prayer. Can protect them from disease in spite of of Scientific Evidence to the contrary. Well here i believe the faithful have a right to seek const for some of the motions and the practices the problems its we start looking at least 2 things that are silent and i think the devotion is alternatives and somebody got richer as the church is never said officially released a subsidy. For treatment for science medicine but this is again a very recent modern problem of these last century or so because science is tends to to be associated by some clear explosive by some intellectuals ideologues inherently an enemy of the faith so revered yes more ease to. Me he was struck me the faithful that is a healthy way ready while continuing looking for concert. And. This spiritual psychological effects from the oceans the out of voiding sciences this is something that has come back lately much more than once and dreams into the professor record store to many thanks dave for being with a small sum of money that professor of theology and religious studies at the end of a university the u. S. Has planned a trillion dollar package to try to ease the economic fallout from the coronavirus 100. 00 american deaths are so far linked to it and many 6000 infections a White House CorrespondentKelly Holcomb points. As ordinary americans cope with the Economic Impacts of coronavirus the white house announced it was pushing congress to make a media Cash Payments to struggling americans what weve heard from hardworking americans Many Companies have now shut down whether its bars or restaurants american state cash now and the president wants to get cash now and i mean now in the next few Weeks Congress has already put forward a bill to provide sickly as well as Food Assistance to children and the elderly it still needs to pass the Republican Controlled Senate before us President Donald Trump can sign it into law. But the new proposed payments which also need to be approved by congress would be part of a package worth more than a trillion dollars. Clude help for the airline and other Industries Hit hard by the slowdown in business this is worse than 911 that for the Airline Industry were going big with this invisible enemy we dont want airlines going out of business we dont want people losing their jobs the Hotel Industry has also been hard hit tuesday mariya the Worlds LargestHotel Company started furloughing thousands of employees as their hotels see fewer customers but its not just the economy that has the white house worried it says Public Health remains a priority on standby in new york the army corps of engineers to increase Hospital Capacity in response to the pandemic new york remains one of the states with a high cluster of coronavirus cases my hunch is it would probably be quicker if its done at the state or local level but if we can do it quicker we should we were prepared to do that but i think at this point the key is speed still there are signs it will be weeks if not months before life returns to normal beloved events like the Kentucky Derby horse race now delayed until september and in an Election Year the ohio president ial nominating contest was also called off the American Red Cross on tuesday also put out a call for blood donations. And complete joins us now live from washington kimberly how soon could this economic aid package be released yeah its definitely in a divided u. S. Congress one thing that this congress can find some consensus on so this is on a fast track and given that the wheels of government move pretty slowly in this country the fact that theyre hoping to have this by the end of the week is pretty remarkable the reason theyre trying to do that is to calm those very nervous investors on wall street the other reason for this is that the white house is warning if this package doesnt go through those historically led a lot lower unemployment rates here in the United States they could have we could see unemployment hitting the 20 percent mark here in the United States so theyre working as i mentioned that report on a one trillion dollars package that is an enormous amount historical in fact in this country and it would include not just bailouts for Industries Like the airlines but also potentially Cash Payments to individuals of between 14500. 00 so this is something that theyre working on very very urgently and in the midst of all this theres now another request for even more money 45000000000. 00 for government funding to keep Government Agencies open so a lot of funding requests hitting congress right now coming up at 9 15 in the morning in washington kimberly whats on the president s agenda today when can we expect to hear from him. Yeah a little bit curious we had a tweet from him about an hour ago where he said hes having a News Conference to discuss the chinese virus couple things in that tweet their number one theres no News Conference on the daily schedule except the sort of regular Coronavirus Task force briefing we think thats what the president is talking about but no clarification just the usual kind of morning confusion here in washington the other thing thats really important is hes calling the crown a virus the chinese virus and that is very deliberate thats something the president is defending hes very angry that he says china blamed the u. S. Military on the spread of the virus so he is not only defending the use of the this name but also saying hell continue to do it because he says thats where the virus came from in the midst of all of this i should tell you just very quickly here in the United States we now have all 50 us states with cases of rotavirus and hospitals are now bracing themselves for the influx of patients they expect in the coming days and weeks White House Correspondent kimberly how could live in washington kimberly many thanks indeed strict lock downs on place across much of europe from the effect is very clear now take a look at this video shot in central paris in the past just after 1 pm local time hardly a person to be seen shops and cafes closed the streets around popular attractions like the move and the eiffel tower empty list. On any given day this area would usually be teeming with tourists and locals today its nearly abandoned the entire country under a 15 day lockdown which began at midday on tuesday. And frances Prime Minister has warned that british travelers could be stopped from entering the country if the u. K. Fails to lock down to battle a pandemic. So itll kill if we want to be coherent all those who within the europeans only need to adopt coherent methods and processes to fight the epidemic italy france spain and maybe tomorrow other states have chosen to be in confinement it goes without saying that if other countries especially the neighboring countries for example the United Kingdom stay in a logic in which they do not apply these measures that it would be difficult for us to accept british nationals with the now territory who can move freely within their country and then come to france a new Commission President on the land has southerners of optimism she believes that a vaccine to the coronavirus may be ready in a few months time in addition we are accelerating research yesterday i spoke to the managers of an innovative European Research company they work on a Promising Technology to develop a vaccine against the corona virus the European Union provides them up to 80000000 euros and i hope that with this support we can have a vaccine on the market perhaps before autumn lets go live to london and Sarah Lawrence lee can talk to us a little bit more about whats going on in europe right now this bizarre scenes we we saw europe of a near deserted paris. You know up absolute extraordinary isnt it just to see a lie that. This place really is whats underwriting the frustration from the french Prime Minister in that sound bite you heard about whats happening in the u. K. And then as far as lou is saying in her report earlier on the success of countries like china and south korea and getting on top of it have either been through the enforced long sounds of societies. Ideally coupled with mass testing as south korea did and clearly the french people are now willingly or otherwise at hearing to these demands from the government as of the populations of spain and italy and and so on with the with all the contingent difficulties of that presents for people here in the u. K. Its still a different picture in the house of commons they have provinces questions a short time ago every wednesday and it was a very different scene because usually with a 650 m. P. s but only those m. P. s who had a question on the paper it was the Prime Minister were allowed to turn up and so the whole chamber was over 3 quarters of more empty and they said well thats there was social social distancing but at the same time of course the restaurants and pubs are of still open very much people being advised to stay away but not by their demand that they stay away and interestingly in promises questions nobody actually else the Prime Minister but what do you think about these these complaints from europe that theyre doing all the heavy lifting world while the u. K. Still to some degree and for business in the Prime Minister did say however is that theres going to be announcement on schools in the u. K. Imminently and so i think the suggestion is that probably by the end of this week we may see the closure of all the schools as always has happened elsewhere and if that happens when it happens then obviously the country sort of goes into volatile up there anyway because everybody has a stay at home apart from Health Workers trying to cover the children but is this a lag you see between the u. K. And every everywhere else that is still the a cause for concern the u. K. Is Prime Minister has said that. The u. K. Is getting closer to finding a test that can tell whether youve actua
