Hello Easter Sunday is a day of celebration for the worlds 2400000000 christians a day of hope a day to proclaim the victory of life over death but easter this year has been marked by empty Church Buildings families split apart and an ever growing list of the dead from the pope in the vatican to the church of the holy supplicant in jerusalem and suburban churches around the world priests and ministers were forced behind closed doors delivering their messages online rather than in person well here in the u. K. The Health Secretary declared sunday a somber day as the number of People Killed pos 10000 the 5th nation to reach the figure british Prime Minister Boris Johnson was released from hospital thanking Health Care Workers for saving his life but the admitting it could have gone either way and my word begins our coverage. Britains Prime Minister Boris Johnson left the hospital to continue his recovery at his country residence he was discharged after a week 3 nights of which he spent in intensive care i have today left hospital after a week in which the n. H. S. Has saved my life look question its hard to find words to express my dad he paid tribute to those who looked after him. Ive seen the personal courage not just of the doctors the nurses but of everyone the cleaners the cooks the Health Care Workers of every description physios radiograph was pharmacists who kept coming to work kept putting themselves in harms way kept risky this deadly virus. The number of people who died in hospitals after being infected with the coronavirus in the u. K. Has now surpassed more than 10000 the u. K. Government says record amounts of personal Protection Equipment is in the system but staff treating the sick say there are still vulnerable im sorry if ministers feel that they have supplied adequate p. P. To n. H. S. Staff but thats simply not the case of what we are experiencing on the ground and its just all dont want to be seen as heroes were not martyrs and we dont want to die in the line of duty we just want to be protected so that we can do our jobs. Across europe people are grappling with this crisis the number of deaths in spain rose again after a few days of dropping slightly no wonder then that theres no letup in efforts to try to stop the spread of the virus and corona virus is stalking frances care homes killing some of its residents care workers here face a grim task trying to reassure the living while dealing with the deaths. At the paris Funeral Homes and private Funeral Homes are completely overwhelmed so it means that some corpses stay 34 days in the bedroom on the bedroom floor. This weekend should have been one of coming together for many families and friends tomorrow easter instead many of europes capitals are empty the landmarks deserted the church is closed the pope delivered his easter mass in a much scaled down service at the vatican 100000. 00 people usually gather in st peters. Listen it is the remains the epicenter of europes coronavirus outbreak other places though of beating the full force of this human disaster and he would. Get an update from marion and joining us from right here in london so is her saying that Boris Johnson is now out of hospital and on the road to recovery marion. Yes thats right daryn he has been discharged from hospital he will continue his recovery a check because thats a Prime Ministers country residence its interesting in that social media message the posted early said that it was really touching go for a minute and that reflects the sense of concern that there was in the country about the Prime Ministers health and what his mission to intensive care could have meant that the country and the Decision Making in the possibility of a power vacuum at a time of crisis that there will be a collective sigh of relief that hes out of hospital not back at work yet though the foreign secretary dominic run. That i mean is that right except to say now that he is out of hospital he will be making the decisions yet still a grim milestone passed in the death toll in the u. K. Today. Yes thats right we were expecting to pass the 10000. 00 mark today but its still been met with a sense of shock and sadness and it has to be said that this figure really only reflects the heart of the debt deaths that have been taking place inside hospitals it doesnt reflect the delays in reporting those deaths because of paperwork and forms that have to be filled out nor does it reflect the significant number of desolate taking place in care homes right now so in real terms that bigger is likely to be higher and we probably passed the 10000 mark before today on top of that warnings that have been raised about you kate possibly becoming the worst affected country in europe from the coronavirus it already over to spain and italy recording the worst number of daily deaths and so there are concerns about the u. K. Suffering the largest number of deaths there was some possible positive signs in the figures today though while speculations showing some sign of stabilization in london thats important because hed see an improvement in those figures in order for the death toll to eventually come down the other thing the government was pressed on at that briefing today was the lack of personal protective equipment for frontline and excess workers this is a crucial issue because this crisis is about to get worse and there are fears that those that are on the front line were going to be treating patients who have over 1000 or suspected cases of coke at 900 simply dont have the equipment they need to stop them from catching and spreading the virus. Said today i spoke about 121000 gallons but he didnt mention anything about face masks and goggles which also thought to be running very low in some hospitals the British Medical Association has set that hospitals in london and in yorkshire running very low all supplies right now so there is a great deal of anxiety over this and a great deal of anger directed at the government that you have doctors and nurses those working inside hospitals who are putting themselves at a great deal of risk right now all right thank you very much. Well italy has recorded its smallest number of deaths in more than 3 weeks officials said on sunday more than 430 people died from coronavirus related illnesses thats a drop of almost 200 on the day before more than 156000 people in italy have been infected with the virus and almost 20000 people have died well the Worlds Largest Oil Producers have agreed to cut global output by around 10 percent in a bid to shore up falling prices hit by the coronavirus pandemic its the biggest cut ever with demand for oil plummeting amid the outbreak the oil cartel opec russia and other all producing nations have agreed to reduce production by around 10000000 barrels a day in may and june the deal was initially stalled after mexico failed to agree to its share of cuts but they were us President Donald Trump said hed further reduce americas outputs to compensate lets bring in our economics editor joining us from london via skype so our bit were now learning that for that deal to be clinched there was indeed pressure from the u. S. President donald trump. Absolutely daryn youre absolutely right there was pressure from the u. S. President the president and said that there would be tariffs are not oil from saudi arabia and the from russia if they do and did not go through now mexico was the holdout in this in this particular deal they said they wouldnt reduce. Their output from 4 of 25400000 barrels a day they said were sticking with 100000 barrels a day in that sense and the u. S. President stepped in to kind of. The deal to make sure it went through and said they and the United States want would help mexico to lower the the amount of production that they should be doing now that how they go about doing that will be rather interesting its really it really important to remember that last week we saw 17000000 people join the unemployment lines in the United States and the shell industry in the United States is usually important to the to the American Company employs 10000000 people and the last thing President Trump wanted was a few more 1000000 people joining the production joining unemployment lines in specially problem this share of shale industry so he pushed through this be still now were still waiting to find out whether the mexico stuck to their guns and they will be just reducing their ad by a 100000 barrels a day but its very important as well for countries like nigeria for instance nigeria is barring some in the region last 7000000000. 00 from the i. M. F. And world bank to see through this particular pandemic the request came because basically they had christ there yet got it for this year at 59. 00 a barrel and currently oil prices at 30. 00 a barrel now in the next few hours well see that markets open and this is difficult to cut 10000000. 00 barrels a day and there is additional cuts coming through from other g. 20 nations. Well not likely to take away the total output which has been lost so were looking at 35000000. 00 barrels. Has been lost over the last few weeks alone because of the pandemic as 3000000000 people go. Under lockdown so in the next year also find out what the market thinks about this and the most likely effect of this will be that more prices could slip by 20. 00 a barrel if not by the end of this week was suddenly over the next few few months all right so well keep an eye on the markets but ali for the meantime thank you for that. New yorks mayor is criticizing the trumpet ministration for a lack of testing kits bill de blasio has announced plans for a new testing sites but says its contentions on supplies from the federal government the u. S. Has passed italy with more than 21000 deaths about half of them are in the new york metropolitan area we pleaded for weeks and weeks for the federal government provide testing up front in the kind of quantity that could have helped us contain this crisis and change the whole course of that we never got that help we continue to plead for more testing still has not come any in anywhere near the numbers that we need but we will not stop were continuing the conversations with the white house would seem demanding the testing we are the epicenter of this crisis we must have the testing to help us move towards that next phase where we get out of widespread transmission across a virus and move to a low level transmission on to Something Better meanwhile new yorks governor says the states Hospital System is no longer a threat of hitting capacity but worse the fire is likely to spread in suburban communities next. We are now stabilized on the imminent threat to the capacity of the Health Care System so we have a little breathing room in terms of capacity in equipment and wherever we see a pop up we jump on that immediately. I think you will see more growth in less populated places the virus 1st hits in the most dense locations africans in china say theyve experienced racism at the hands of the chinese authorities because of a cluster of corona virus cases in the countrys south they say they have been forcibly evicted from their homes tested several times without being given the results and shunned in public 114. 00 cases have been reported in the city of guangzhou since thursday 16 of those were africans and african officials have challenged china over the mistreatment Chinas Foreign Ministry acknowledged there had been some misunderstandings of the dream more from the nigerian capital of bush and he says the main concern now is that africans in china could take the law into their own hands the African Union have demanded explanations and actions from the chinese or for yet in nigeria or to the foreign minister someone the Chinese Ambassador to nigeria to tell him they are p. D. N. Or what nigeria feels about it and demanded action on the part of the chinese authorities now the fear actually right now is not what african countries can do in retaliation because china is involved tens of thousands of chinese. Actually spread across africa doing business construction and all and i look to for africa feel that the governments may not take opinion of actions against chinese businesses in africa because they needed those activities those loads from china those Development Projects be executed by chinese on the continent however the real fear is what citizens will do if you look at the social media platforms you see the amount of hate which africans say is in retaliation for the discriminatory attacks and the racial slows against africans living in china so the fear now is that these africans may take the law into their hands and start attacking chinese in retaliation thats the warri african governments are facing right now well just a moment ago we were telling you about new yorks mayor whos been criticizing the trumpet ministration for a lack of testing kits over in the u. S. Lets bring in mike hanna hes joining us from washington for more on that story what the mayor has been saying but the governor as well mike. Yes indeed the new york city mayor making very clear that the Central Government he believes has not followed through on its promise of providing sufficient testing kits President Trump has repeatedly said that the u. S. Has got the best testing regimen in the world as he puts it citing over 2000000. 00 tests conducted but this doesnt take into account the per capita amount of tests that are being done the mayor of new york citys saying there is simply not enough tests in the area this is echoed by the governor of new york state also saying that the testing is an absolute critical factor in terms of countering the ongoing pandemic making very clear that its on the testing that the data lines are produced and that you can see the arc of the virus you can see when its going to come where its going to come but without clear testing this is simply not possible and important point to brought up by the governor of new york is that any talk about lifting the lockdown and there has been some of that in recent days from some in the white house that any talk about that is meaningless unless there is data to base a decision on that data comes from testing so this is a clear issue from the governor of new york from the mayor of new york city that they cannot be any contemplation of an easing of the measures against a pandemic until there is a clear set of facts on which to base any timeline any projection as to when the lockdown could be lifted without the essential data this is just simply not possible according to both the mayor of new york city and the governor of new york state at the epicenter of this pandemic right mike hanna thank you. Still to come on aljazeera after 70 coronavirus ling death serbia takes extreme measures to keep people at home for the weekend and.

There was a sudden decision unprecedented blocked on the session however as the Ministry Announced the lockdown immediately after that hundreds of thousands of people flocked in the supermarkets and bakeries to buy bread because it wasnt an ounce that the v. A. Crees would be looked at during those 48 hours of lockdown thats what people were panicked and it was criticize because that could cause a huge spread of the koran a virus which was criticized by many other people so minister saw him apologize as today from the citizens he said that is taking responsibility and whoever criticizes him they are right and today he just and now says resignation and i have to say that this is not good news because when a monster who has been who has been there in terry and minister for the last couple of years has been is a well known for his harsh measures against what the what the country calls there is a mess michel a guest looks good to some workers.
