Across europe coronavirus lockdowns of largely emptied the streets to reduce the chances of person to person infection in paris residents face a 150. 00 fine if caught outside without good reason exercise is permitted even encouraged but new restrictions have been imposed along the river scene and around the eiffel tower. We are at the start of this crisis as i have reminded the french people in the beginning of this week we put in place measures to result this 1st wave its a race against the virus. Despite nearly 2 weeks in lockdown italy has seen the numbers dead and infected hitting record new heights people are only allowed out for work medical reasons or emergencies and those allowances are expected to be made even tighter this weekend this is just a snapshot of life in Central London but compared to the lockdowns in france and italy the difference is striking shops are still open people are still Walking Around driving around each and every contact an opportunity for the virus to spread i have a message for young people you are not invincible even if you dont get seek their choices you make about where you go could be the difference between life and for someone else until now restrictions in the u. K. Have been advisory rather than compulsory but in order for schools to shutter finally has come into effect the gates will not reopen on monday. At his latest daily Coronavirus Briefing the Prime Ministers guidance to leisure venues became a Closure Order we are quick to be telling telly cafes pubs bars and restaurants to close tonight as soon as they reasonably can and not to open to more newly published documents hint at the struggle ahead u. K. Governments latest scientific advice makes sobering reading sage has warned the government that a combination of case isolation household isolation and social distancing of vulnerable groups is very unlikely to prevent Critical Care facilities being overwhelmed and in General Social distancing and School Closures to the mix would probably work if kept in place for a long period how long the government has been warned the to be effective a policy of alternating between more and less strict measures would need to be in place for at least most of a year. Around the World Governments are enacting Emergency Powers imposing draconian restrictions and confining whole populations in their homes and there is no imminent exit strategy paul brennan aljazeera. Massive been hearing there in the u. K. Prime minister has of course announce new measures to combat the virus lets get more now from the fark or he joins me now on set at neve lots to talk about the lets start and its in the of course the death toll there has soared yet again and i stricter measures are coming into force in italy as well yes or the last time the official number was given it was 627 it may have gone up in the last hour or so we dont havent yet got clarification but just to put that into perspective thats the biggest single day jump in the death toll of any country since the beginning of the corona Virus Outbreak in china several months ago the average death toll in woburn province the height of its crisis 150 deaths a day in italy over the past few days weve been seeing an average of around 450 deaths so 627 an Alarming Number what the Italian Government are hoping to do is a ramp up restrictions we know the parks are now closed restriction of course places where people can gather in any any large number but despite its a lockdown nationwide it encompasses all 60000000 or so people people in the past few days of still being able to go out to work in the message from chinese advises the red cross is that look you need to economically lock down the entire country if these measures are going to be effective weve seen the military being drafted in and lombardy where the principal city is milan the Financial Center it looks like we may see a more intense military presence nationwide as the italians really try to bring this critical situation under control and lets turn our focus to the u. K. Now this the still no looked at in here at all but the Prime Minister has been announcing more restrictions on daily mine. Yes Boris Johnson announced that there is now an order for all bars restaurants cafes theaters to close as of this evening they will be closed indefinitely and that situation will be reviewed on a month by month basis obviously thats a big blow to these businesses whove been essentially holding out to the last minute but i think a lot of people been questioning why the British Government havent enforce this ruling now they believe it is time to do it theyve been ramping up restrictions incrementally also a Critical Development in london in the last few hours in intensive care unit in a hospital and herro in northwest london announcing that they are overwhelmed with coronavirus cases 6 deaths there obviously alarming developments what we thought was going to be a coronavirus peak in several weeks time looks to be happening much earlier than expected Britains NationalHealth Service told to be prepared and be ready to provide an extra 30000 beds as soon as possible ok a very troubling situation indeed any parker thank you very much indeed for lets get more on this now and speak to sirius musk us hes an associate professor in cellular ringback and Molecular Sciences at Northumbria University and joins us on skype good to have you with us here on the news hour that we have been hearing criticism of the u. K. Governments gradual approach do you think that criticism is warranted. Oh. Cool. If if it was my choice i would have put us all into lockdown and implemented must create a world more than likely to occur however one has to take her also the economy into account i wouldnt be surprised if several more sound alone we are told that this was a ranking up process to try and hammer home the message of this is serious but also shallow people the time to prepare. For a situation where we will all be social distancing and a lot down for an extended period but the u. K. Government been assisting theyve been following the science sounds like there could be no the fact is simply trying to prepare people in a behavioral science way or perhaps trying to safeguard the economy and whats really driving the governments actions why i think were seeing so Many Disparate approaches worldwide. I think you need to ask each government about what drives their specific actions and they will probably tell you that the science of bias are against you if you look at the same report came out today asked how the apostleship into the government and the committees are largely structured are on flu pandemics about behavioral science actually shows where the information will source and more kind of approach will spoke into this they were basically translating what we know about flu all to coronavirus and im not the 1st one to say this coronaviruses not float and that has been one of the major privacy on top of the we have to bear in mind that this is a very complicated society very complicated supply chains profit from food to electronics and you cant just shutter straight away there needs to be some kind of preparation the extent of preparation that is necessary im not the person to church there are some hoping for that decision to be taken to be taken with a more rounded view us the world needs to be up to doing to such the sit ins and well lets lets lets broaden our scope some warts and. Its talking about italy were seeing tragic numbers coming out of there mean it appears i mean this violent virus originated in china but its killing far more italians than any other nationality why there was this. There is a debate as it is a very difficult question i think a coincidence about luck. Luck of preparedness it actually probably has that blown so we had the skiing season if you like in italy the trucks people in the arts world why its a slow boat to the region its mostly factored from mostly be populated the soaps that patients come in with so they were just not recognized as the 1st few days alas we know now theres a 2 to 3 weeks where dont be doing which cases such going to have that takes over and by the time the who knows what was happening doctors were already in fact of the virus there was a flood of people coming forward to come into the system on top of the heart italy house or one of the things the 2nd stage of population in the world and we know already that this virus shoots preferably the older members of our society so a combination of these 2 things seems to have really talked over hours or so it certainly does work i mean do you think i mean were so learning about this virus mr learning about how its affecting different populations worldwide do you think were going to see other italy so begin to see other examples of 31 year olds in intensive care at the death toll the average death toll being over 45600. 00 per day. Dont think its important to emphasize on the numbers day right now i think its all know that the song young people will end up in i. C. U. There will be young people there will be children or that will go into i. C. U. That has clearly documented in china it will happen but in the population level were talking about a very slow fraction of your population but will load up dying because of this disease unless of course provided that we can contain the flood of people into being terms of care yes were going to have one slogan for our regular period if you like you know part but short but this is not about Going Forward you can actually the week after a car comes not compromising fire and so this is probably d brutal the signs are that things are going to get much sleep in the next couple of weeks but lets hope we wont be indeed lets hope it wont serious much cause thank you so much for joining us that far north on breaking it from Northumbria University the key message there is containment as much as possible and of course washing hands. As a sobering statistics continue to roll in the u. S. And mexico have now agreed to restrict nonessential travel across their shared border to contain the spread of the coronavirus and this follows a similar agreements between the u. S. And canada which is night in effect all recreational and tourist travel will be parts that people will be able to cross for work and the flow of goods wont be affected his President Donald Trump says he will also invoke a health focus law to block migrants from coming in. Become fornia new york have also moved to restrict the movements of people how did you come straight joins there more if from washington d. C. With more know how you are hearing that the space of illinois has also followed suits it really appears to be state go for leads in the crew and voters of the stage thats right in taking definitive leadership actions that does appear to be the case as you said ellen noise now is the 3rd state to issue these drastic orders to all of its residents as was Just Announced about an hour ago for everyone to shelter in place starting tomorrow until april 7th now President Trump was asked to address these measures earlier in the day during his Coronavirus Briefing now with 14000 americans who are infected and more than 200 dead he was asked to stall directly to americans who are seen this happen and are scared but rather than answer the question he attacked the reporter calling that a nasty question and accusing the reporter of sensationalizing the story now even even as this was happening President Trump also dug into his much pand comments from yesterday claiming that an anti malarial drug is effective in treating the corona virus again calling this medicine a game changer he said that even though now a 2nd top u. S. Scientists has contradicted that claim saying that there was no clement Clinical Evidence that the struggle was effective that it was all an anecdotal President Trump then clarifying his statement saying that he simply had a good feeling about this drug now of course this is the same president who just 2 and a half weeks ago said that he thought this coronavirus may just disappear quote like a miracle hala. I will hardly aside from the briefing from President Trump does also have a briefing from the pensacola and the us about all Army Corps Engineers working with the city governments are just tools more of. Thats right this is a pretty dramatic ramping up of the military response to coronavirus in the u. S. With the army corps of engineer announcing that by the end of today it will be working with 18 state governments to increase hospital bed space and the medical response to this pandemic now not only is the military ramping up its response but also private industry there are reports that cruise liners have offered to use their crew ships docked at american ports to be floating quarantine units or hospital of what hospitals have warranted and also private industry manufacturers have now been allowed to sell industry grade respirator masks to hospital workers if needed which frees up potentially millions more of those masks in the face of shortages that weve seen across the country you can hear you joe castro brings all the very latest there from washington d. C. Thank you very much indeed. Have irans Supreme Leader ayatollah ali come in a sense the country will overcome the coronavirus pandemic and the economic fallout its in a televised speech for the persian new year irans highest authority said it was a mulcher this year for it reigning in this suffering on the u. S. Sanctions he calls for the restrictions to be lifted so the country can receive much needed medical supplies in the 20000 people in iran in fact has more than 1400 have died saying the. Sanctions by saying. Its been a difficult one for iranian so far they acknowledged that the coronavirus had been a very terrible challenge and defended the countrys response despite the fact that many have been critical against the government for not taking this seriously enough soon enough but really what many people have been watching for is what they had to say about american sanctions now on the eve of the persian new year the United States placed more sanctions on iran more iran related sanctions this time sanctioning 5 entities based out of the u. A. E. Accusing them of facilitating iranian oil sales are now on tuesday just a few days earlier they placed sanctions on a handful of Iranian Nuclear scientists as well as entities based in pakistan russia china and the u. A. E. Signaling that the americans are now targeting any countries or any entities that are becoming too close to iran once again weve seen the u. N. Help weve seen the United Nations various agencies even call for sanctions to be lifted along with echoing what many iranian leaders have been saying what this i. M. F. Loan is earlier this month iranian officials reached out to the International Monetary fund and said that we need 5000000000. 00 in emergency aid as part of helping to respond to the coronaVirus Outbreak in iran one of the worst affected countries in the world and what many iranians have said all along is that they are hopeful that the International Community will want to give them this aid but they are also very aware and perhaps a cynical view but a realistic one that the United States will try to do whatever it can to block iran from getting that money.
