Its not fear but rather a stress to suddenly be forced to make choices that we dont want to make and to find ourselves in situations where we have to choose which patients we could get in the intensive care as recently as 2 weeks ago russia had just 10 official cases of covert 19 its fast approaching 2000 now and rising in moscow the city mayor has shut parks closed shops and brands nonessential journeys addressing regional leaders by video link russias president has urged other regions to follow moscows example of.

In mexico Public Health emergency has been declared in a series of new measures have been impose aimed at slowing the spread of coronavirus people over the age of 60 as well as those with preexisting Health Conditions have been told to stay at home mexico has more than a 1000 confirmed cases with 2828 deaths so far they speak to manual rapido in mexico city for us for the latest from there so tell us about these new measures money that the authorities have announced. Mexican Health Authorities announced it late on monday evening this these new measures announced a Public Health emergency as you mentioned finally restricting movement for for a period of 30 days but we should mention that while the government is calling for people to stay in their homes theyre calling they stopped short of calling this a quarantine this is a fall in terry self isolation that the government is calling for for a period of 30 days this was mexicos Deputy Health minister who spoke during that press conference saying that now is the time to to flatten the curve the curve on contagion again Mexican Health officials stopping just short of calling this a quarantine so were not seeing the same types of measures that are being imposed in other countries in the regions countries in Central America and south america that have imposed curfews and mandatory quarantines restricting the freedom of mobility thats not been the case as of yet here in mexico and thats one of the criticisms as of late of the mexican president for taking what many see as being a relaxed approach when it comes to containment efforts but it does appear that the Mexican Government is finally starting to change their tune the announcement of this National Emergency this national Health Emergency is being seen by many as a positive 1st step in positive 1st step in terms of containment measures and one of the reasons that many speculate that the government has not taken stricter measures as of late is because many leaders here have their eye on the economy have their eye on the mexican peso which has in terms of world currencies is among those who have devalued the most in recent days folly money before we let it go just quickly what will the government be able to impose these new strict have measures that will people you know heat and the these new restrictions. Thats the thing even though the government at least here in terms of the local level that mexico city has called on people to stay in their homes restaurants are still open people are still going out to shops doing exercise so thats thats the big concern is whether or not people will heed the warning now the government has said that under the declaration of a national Health Emergency they do reserve the powers that would allow them to enforce this type of a selfimposed quarantine voluntary quarantine but for the moment the government of mexico says that they do not plan to do that this once again to stress is a voluntary self isolation that the government is calling for thank you very much for that update manual wrap and an eye for is sarah in mexico city and still ahead on aljazeera.
