Authorities in spain have just reported a jump in the number of deaths from the corona virus with nearly 800 new fatalities in just 24 hours countries across europe are ramping up their response to the pandemic as the death toll climbs restrictions on people and testing for the virus are being increased lets go to lauren sleigh now who is live in london so lawrence these numbers are sounding like what weve been hearing out of italy. Yeah exactly and its going from disastrous to worse in spain i mean its the least payback day death rate was 796 the other day. And spain as you know say is exactly in parallel with its the other disastrous thing thats happening in spain at the moment is that the obvious lack of Reliable Equipment the Health Minister just announced. They they have brought in a lot of testing kits from from a supplier in china which have so now to have a 30 percent accuracy there is a general problem with testing kits for shell because they somehow seem to be providing too many what are called false negatives it makes you think that the test says you havent got the virus when actually yet hath but if these chinese kits were giving 30 percent accuracy and people being told to him go see its then clearly thats going to spread the disease really badly theres a general issue in spain as well with the like a protective equipment so the doctors and nurses so they really are in a hole and i mean it is but it cannot be overstated how important it is for people to a bay the rules and stay home thats the way that along with testing as to the way to get along with this to get ahead of this rather and different authorities are handling this different because people just dont listen lawrence what is charmine considering doing. Well and germany clearly is exactly the opposite to spain and italy must testing from the start people who are asymptomatic who tested positive were told to stay at home and therefore didnt go it infects more Vulnerable People so germany has a very very high rates of cases bus a very low mortality rate at the same time then how saying theyre going to try to stretch this out by even trolling potentially to spoil peoples mobile phones which is very controversial anyway because italy and germany by ensuring that people stay at home when they when they when they have tested positive and even if theyve been contacts with someone whos got its. Self isolating as well they say that the modeling is they can end up with a 1000000 cases in germany and yes only 12000 deaths there is a Civil Liberties implication of this lisa they say but they they they are winning the war in the way that other countries are losing at the moment on health talk about the u. K.

Well there arent enough i mean theyre all sort of anywhere really and there but theres a massive rally thats just are up to this morning because the the European Union which is in the middle of a mess Procurement Program for ventilators that invited the u. K. To join even though the u. K. Now left it well off the brics its. Now sends out the u. K. Says it didnt see the mail. As unbelievable as it sounds they literally saying they didnt see the email in the now not of the european Procurement Program and instead are all skin Companies Like dyson which makes vacuum cleaners and rolls royce and other Companies Like this to try and change our Business Model and do it in the u. K. Instead people who dont like bricks its. A few areas saying that its a political move not a Health Care Move by the government to prove it can manage outside of the European Union so its proved a very controversial move but they are now from simply trying to provide as many ventilators they can to mystically without asking the European Union for any help at all like innes all right lawrence play with the wrap up there from london thank you lawrence more cases of crowded virus have now been confirmed in the u. S. Than anywhere else in the world but against the advice of many of us medical experts president says hes committed to getting people back to work as soon as possible as a record 3300000 people filed for Unemployment Benefits in just the past week.

S. Population saying he wants americans getting back to their jobs soon for the sake of the economy they have to go back to work a country has to go back our country is based on that and.

As new centers of coronavirus transmission emerge around the country the pandemic and the economy both seem certain to get worse before they get better rob reynolds aljazeera. China and the United States say theyre working closely together to fight the crime of virus pandemic the show of solidarity comes after weeks of tension between the 2 sides i thought donald trump earlier called the illness the chinese a virus and chinese officials attempted to blame the u. S. For the outbreak china is banning most foreigners from entering as it tries to prevent a 2nd wave of infections trying to you has the latest from beijing. Acquitted state media president xi jinping said that he was very willing to share information and share their extended experience of china in fighting this pandemic he also said that over the last few months china has been responsibly dealing with the outbreak being transparent and also cooperating with International Bodies such as the World Health Organization do you so you get a sense that she dipping is a bit on the defensive and this comes after weeks of being of there being a war of words between the china and the u. S. With u. S. President trump himself calling the coronavirus the chinese virus and with american politicians calling it the wu han virus which is very much infuriation china and china in turn as you mention many chinese diplomats taking to twitter in particular to blame the u. S. Military for perhaps bringing covert 19 to china at the end of last year so we did see at some point really it seems like the u. S. And china had hit rock bottom in terms of the diplomatic relationship so according to the Trump Administration it was president xi who sought out this phone call and he was calling on trying to help improve ties between the 2 countries president xi jinping also said that Many Chinese Companies were doing what they can to help the u. S. By sending medical supplies that are much needed and also interestingly president xi jinping cold on President Trump to help to protect chinese citizens and students who are in the u. S.

We believe the president is right to take missions against coronavirus but he must also be aware of how steady life as one of those towns are because of our no one lives in conscious and without going out with your 3 day lack of food killing people daily in this country. Ministry of health has confirmed more than 50 cases most reports of this hospital. Come out alive. And experts say the lack of Testing Capacity means they could already be many more restrictions should slow the spread but it is a city where millions are living hand to mouth day to day economists wonder how long they could be practically kept up its unbelievable to think that we can cut and copy. The mechanism that is put in europe which means that we cannot confine people 100 percent level where they cannot move but with travel bans and prices rising life for people in kinshasa is going to get a lot harder in the weeks ahead malcolm webb aljazeera.
