In africa sudan rejects ethiopias francis stop filling the reservoir with water and parts of a Chinese Rocket crashed to earth in the most significant uncontrolled descent a space debris in decades. We begin in the us where President Donald Trump has criticized his top Infectious Disease experts warning against reopening the economy too quickly it follows wednesdays testimony by the leading cove in 1000 Task Force Member dr anthony found that rushing to open up could have serious consequences including need less deaths the us is by far the worst hit country by the pandemic with more than 83000 deaths and more than 1300000 infections stomach as again states to lift coronavirus restrictions when it is. Just know when its obviously of a surprise but as its actually because you know. Its just to me its not an acceptable the. Lets bring in mike hanna in washington force President Trump mike saying that hes surprised by dr fox his remarks i guess the distance between the president and his top Infectious Disease expert is much more then social. Indeed yes well its a surprise that President Trump was a surprise given that dr chee has been making this comment for a period of time now warning against any premature opening up without the federal guidelines for opening up being followed among those guidelines incidentally is that a drop in the infection rate is shown over a period of 2 weeks in states that want to open up now a number of states have partially lifted restrictions even without meeting this particular guideline doctor found shes also expressed concern about the ongoing lack of proper Testing Facilities hes argued very strongly that unless complete testing is in place its very hard to track the course of the virus and that is something that would be essential data in terms of determining what areas could open up and when so certainly President Trump expressing surprise is comes as a bit of a shock but also a President Trump specifically taking issue with dr chee on the issue of schools now doctor saying that you shouldnt be opening schools at this particular point President Trumps insisting that if you dont open schools and states dont open up doc to believe is rooted in some new research for since being released and particularly some observations in new york city with some children have to take particular form of disease from the virus now this is something very new and as dr fire chief said to the Senate Committee in the past 24 hours we just do not know enough about this virus for example to be opening schools without getting more knowledge and certainly not without having effective tracking measures in place and might the president had to say that it was up to say to decide when till then so why is he so pressuring governors to open up the economy. Indeed yes President Trump has made that comment repeatedly saying that he cant tell governors what to do however he has that on very many occasions and in fact is doing that now tweeting on support for governors of states who are opening up dropping restrictions to a degree President Trump appears absolutely intent on galvanizing the economy he believes that the only way to do that is to get the states to open up but hes also turned it into something of a political issue tweeting in recent days that the democrats he says would like all the states to stay closed until the election in november believing that they would have some advantage over President Trump should that be the case so he is politicizing this to a degree as well and that move them but election day to something that clearly plays very strongly on President Trumps mind he wants the states to open up so the economy gets going he can use a successful economy as part of his Election Strategy and of course he wants to get back to those mass rallies that are such a buttress of his particular support so theres a clear delineation here between a Health Official like a doctor basing his projections on the science of the matter President Trump taking other factors into account such as a particular political future and didnt deed the economy of the country on which he bases his political future thank you for that my canon life for us in washington d. C. Now as some countries begin gradually easing knocked on restrictions the World Health Organization is warning coronavirus may never be wiped out entirely w. H. O. Says is a non way to go in the fight against survivors and its experts warn that without any threat to vaccine it could take years for the global population to build up sufficient levels of immunity. To put this on the table this where is may become just another endemic virus in our communities and this wireless may never go away hiv has not gone away weve come to terms with the virus and we have found the therapies and we found the prevention methods and people dont feel as scared. As they did before and were offering life to people with hiv long healthy lives to people with a jury well i speak to dr gregory poland about this his director of the Mayo Clinic Vaccine Research joins us via skype from minnesota in the usa inc you very much dr for being best on aljazeera i believe there are over a 100 candidate vaccines being explored as a means of ending the call the 1000 pandemic but the w. H. O. Warning that they could be a long way to go until the there is a vaccine and that they might not even be one why is that well i think there will be a vaccine the question is when and and my concern i just published an editorial about this is the fear that weve pushed and rushed it so quickly that we compromise safety in doing so so we need to be very careful about that but w. H. Y. Did we wait shows main point is that this is a barbarous with high transmissibility in the real number is probably closer to Something Like smallpox the next gives you a sense of this virus seeking no one host after another that it can in fact but so are they reasons and to be optimistic would you say the chances are higher then with hiv to get a vaccine because we heard in that sound bite area the w. H. O. Expert comparing this to a jolly and saying that might not be a vaccine. Yeah i think our chances absolutely are better with the coronavirus the difference is that each id back scene hiv virus is a kind of acquires a species its constantly mutating and changing and that is not the case with coronaviruses they mutate much more slowly we have much more of a lead starting in 2000 through. Apologies we seem to connection there with dr gregory poland. Dr poland a is so with us ok weve lost ed so hopefully we can reconnect with them a little later in the show dr poland can you hear me yes i hear you very we lost you there for a moment so you were talking to us about the difference between this virus and h. I. V. Ed the facts that are there the chances of a vaccine fall coronavirus a much higher than h. I. B. Yes indeed and the reason for it is that the h i. V. Virus is a cause a species that means that it is constantly changing in mutating making it very hard to devise a back seat that is not the case with corona virus it mutates much more slowly we understand what portion of the virus to make a vaccine against i think our real issue is not will we be able to make one but will we be able to make one that induces seed and long term immunity right it what about the therapies and prevention methods that have words for diseases like a child aids because i mean even even if they get a vaccine and when we get one ill so be a huge logistical challenge to actually inoculate most of the worlds population. Well thats right and question fully is will it take one dose will it take 2 doses will it take periodic doses. Debts and manufacturing capacity that the globe really does not possess and would need to bill i thank you so much for talking to us and for giving us your insight into this dr gregory poland from the mayo clinic joining us there from minnesota my pleasure that the European Union is urging leaders to reopen borders closed because of the coronavirus pandemic tourism makes up 10 percent of the rocks economy and the e.
