Hello Brazils Supreme Court has released a video showing president joe youre both so narrow allegedly trying to interfere in Law Enforcement appointments to protect his family from investigation cross live to john holeman joining us from mexico city what more do we know about this video and how it came about. This is quite a complicated situation so im just going to try and break it down for you this all started when social moto brazils Justice Minister whos a bit of a star in his own right quit what he alleged is that president but also noddle tried to replace the regional preet police chief of real did to meddle and real de janeiro is where his sons being investigated basically for graft and then after trying to replace that police chief he then wont when one level above and actually did fire the federal police chief so hell moral said that was so that he could replace him with someone that was more pliable that could pass the president information about those cases thats what here alleged now the Supreme Court which is just released this video in this video apparently president bush for not 0 is saying i will not wait for my family or friends to get screwed because i cannot change one of our Law Enforcement officials and then he goes on say if one cannot change the Law Enforcement official one changes his boss if not his boss one changes the minister were not kidding around all of that seems to support the ex Justice Minister here morals hypothesis that president board sonata was sort of making moves in the federal Police System to try and protect his sons at the moment thats all alleged but this is come from the Supreme Court whove given out this video now that if this situation could be about to get a little bit more sticky still when perhaps the attorney general brazil is going to ask for the president s mobile phone approval disapprove things that have been happening with that and thats when what were hearing is that the head of the military security for the president might be against that might be about to get involved as well so its a developing situation in brazil that isnt looking like its going to be resolved very amicably yeah all this happening john as the country of course has now recorded more than 20000 deaths because of the coronavirus. Absolutely president Bush Fernando is involved in this very sort of political scandal well meanwhile lots of people are sort of fighting fighting literally for their lives in that country its the epicenter of coronavirus in latin america its not the only scandal that the president s been involved in as well hes also lost to Health Ministers in the last few weeks basically because theyve this agreed with the way that hes been trying to combat or not to combat really this pandemic basically the president job also not a line on this is that 70 percent or more of us are going to get this some time if youre not and if youre not old get out to work of ways the economy is going to suffer state governments in municipal governments have taken quite a different line theyve said if we dont keep people at home than our Health Services are basically going to break and in various parts of brazil theyre already right on the limit or passing it in cities such as minerals which is in the Amazon Region so already president bill sonata has got a lot of people sort of. In opposition to him in the country ordinary people also state governments municipal governments and this is just another complication for a president that looks increasingly cornered writer john thank you very much for bringing that update for us well as youve been hearing from john cases are piling up in brazil and while thats happening the mayor of Rio De Janeiro has unveiled a new Field Hospital dedicated to treating cope with 1000 patients. A break right here in the Field Hospital you are seeing 50 new intensive care beds are going to open and for us day is spectacular. By bringing down the infection and we have more intensive care beds being opened and we have more teams arriving next week from china and we are really hoping that we can gradually relatively and safely return to activities in the city of Rio De Janeiro. So the World Health Organization has raised the alarm about the corona Virus Outbreak in south america the agencys executive director of Health Emergencies has also warned against turning to untested treatments south america has become a new at the center for the disease weve seen many south american countries with. Increasing numbers of cases. And clearly theres a concern across many of those countries but certainly the most affected is that at this point. We also know. The government of brazil has approved the use of hydroxy chloroquine for broader use but we do point to the fact our current clinical systematic review is carried out by a kind american Health Organization and the current claim that Clinical Evidence does not support the widespread use of hydroxy chloroquine for the treatment with 19 earlier i spoke to. Who is the assistant director of the pan american Health Organization he says that line america is only at the beginning of the outbreak. In latin america the 1st again he was attacked here by the end of february sold the community to his mission he started more recently in latin america so why do we have found that hes seen european him out heavy control and it does michel moon latin america we had at the beginning of their Widespread Community transmission it is its its like in latin america we we have the elite of the 4 to 6 weeks when we compared to europe for the if the situation on this he epidemiological situation on we we need to be prepared because probably we will face it to what we think are very important transmission on what moment but a video end of that dont really seem latin america mexico who are people who are about the war in august they are in their method 2 weeks they are extremely fair very important in their lives in the number of caves sold there we are all simply even our 2nd go where the song we are discussing and we use the means of health that they need to implement the all of their social decency measures they need to prepare their Health Services and they need to ask this what is working or what is not the walking in 1 oclock in the all ministers but if you love that you have a very different situations about the indigenous population in the countries in south america the Indigenous Community that they live far from city so they have very limited access and this regard is very important to establish primary health care said receive their lead by clause you thought they can be rigid here when the they have an outbreak he is also very important to take my country did something quarter of the aspects that they have brought us lately therefore mission.

Waiting for their next dispatch to red cross workers on standby at this office in a cow to pick mexico. And here half of the ambulance units have been refitted to specifically deal with coated 19 patients but the paramedics say theyre worried the regions hospitals are nearing capacity. Shes here with us here but i was that i think we should be worried about the level of saturation at hospitals because weve arrived in an ambulance and found there is no space for our patients we have to wait 123 and had to wait for up to 4 hours. In independent analysis more than 4500 death certificates is adding concern the Regions Health system could soon become overwhelmed the findings suggest the death toll in mexico city is actually 3 times higher than what the government is reporting me and i act as if i was here on the face i mean there are death certificates of people who either did not know they had the illness or died in quarantine or without being tested this thing is certainly a factor also they are not adequately reporting the deaths of people under the suspicion of coronavirus. Mexican Health Officials are not denying the findings of the new report but mexicos Deputy Health minister who lopez get there is questioning the methodology he says that a majority of the death certificates in question are part of the subset that will eventually be included in an official code 1000. 00 death to. Mexico city and its surrounding municipalities have become the epicenter of the corona Virus Outbreak in the country people seeking medical treatment are finding it increasingly difficult to find hospitals that are still accepting patients as hospitals in mexico city continue to fill up people are turning to a mobile phone application watched by the City Government that indicates which hospitals have reached capacity as of this week all but 5 of the regions Medical Centers appeared either completely full or nearing capacity. Paramedics say calls related to covert 900 are still on the rise making the workload constant theyre also worried in oversaturation of hospitals could lead to patients dying while waiting in the back of ambulances. Mexico city. Coming up on the news hour with this she was 31 people tested for a 1000000. Things war torn countries like yemen jeopardize the global fight to contain covert 19. And donald trump declares places of worship essential service should saying the u. S. Needs more prayer not less. But 1st a surge of corona virus infections in dhaka stunt has prompted the russian government to build Field Hospitals there because this region of southern russia has become one of the hardest hit in the country there been reports of overwhelmed hospitals and medical staff dying after contracting the virus according to official numbers there are 4000 confirmed cases in dagestan but experts say the number is much higher with nearly 700 deaths recorded from quote pneumonia while the International Rescue committee is warning that a lack of testing in countries affected by conflict is jeopardizing global efforts to contain covert 19 its data highlights the danger of undetected and uncontrolled outbreaks in countries like yemen which is only done 31. 00 tests per 1000000 people and northeastern syria at a rate of 59. 00 per 1000000 in comparison germany has carried out more than 42000. 00 tests per 1000000 war torn states also have the highest coba test positivity suggesting a far larger but undetected level of people have been infected in somalia 45 percent of those tested came back positive for the virus in afghanistan the figure stands at 30 point one percent but in germany only 6 percent of tests have come back positive. So the United Nations says yemen tell system has essentially collapsed the contras reported about 200 cases of cope with 1030 deaths but aid agencies believe the number of infections is likely much higher lopez reports. For many life in yemen was already difficult before the coronavirus now the pandemic is making things even worse over the last 2 months more than 20000 families have turned to camps like lisa in the maariv governorate their homes are now makeshift tents health care here is limited social distancing impossible the u. N. Says yemens Health Care System has essentially collapsed we hear from many of them that yemen is really on the brink right there the situation is extremely alarming they are talking about that the Health System has in effect collapsed they are talking about having to try and people away because they do not have an oxygen they do not have a lot of the protective equipment doctors are getting ready for a rise in the number of patients they have little to offer them yemen is particularly vulnerable to the spread of the virus poverty and water shortages have left the war torn country highly susceptible to disease and money is running out we are heading towards a fiscal cliff if we do not get the money coming in the programs that are keeping people alive and very much essential to fight back and gets cold it will have to close and then have to witness what happened in a country without a functional Health System that can cope with 98 agencies say infections are likely underreported because of scars testing limited resources and government secrecy and calls to stop the fighting amid the pandemic have been ignored theyve even more people at risk was forced out of their homes by armed men conflict violence this is the dominant dicked on International Diplomacy in their lives why unions of armed groups. But also the Security Council which has not in any way shape talk to the secretary general has called for a global coronavirus shes trying 5 years of war between allies of Yemen Government and who the forces have destroyed or close more than half of the countrys health facilities. People are now left facing a disease that threatens to further cripple their country already devastated by whoever. The young dizzier. Muslims have met for friday prayers in nigerias northwestern kano state despite a rising number of corona virus infections there state officials relaxed restrictions in the area after pressure from religious leaders millions of nigerians are preparing to celebrate their idol fatah holiday marking the end of ramadan nigeria has reported more than 7000. 00 cases and at least 211. 00 deaths president s on a trump says hell order of the u. S. Flock to be flown at half stuff over the next 3 days as the u. S. Coronavirus death toll approaches 100000 all 50 states have partially reopened after a 2 month shutdown even though some are still recording a rising number of new infections trump has been urging governors to safely open the country to help the economy recover despite fears it could lead to a 2nd wave of infections hes now declared house as a force ship essential services and called for governors to reopen them some governors have deemed a Liquor Stores an abortion clinics is essential but have left out churches and other houses of worship still right so im correcting this injustice and calling houses of worship essential. I call upon governors to allow our churches in places of worship to open right now if they dont do it i will override the governors in america we need more prayer not less heres our White House CorrespondentKimberly Halkett with more. Well essentially what the u. S. President has done is set up a battle once again between his white house and the 50 governors across the United States many who are still in force in very strict stay at home orders particularly when it pertains to houses of worship so this would be churches mosques synagogues essentially the concern being that when you have large groups get gathering and congregating that this could allow for an asymptomatic person to spread unknowingly to other members of the congregation but at the same time many churches particularly in california where more than 1200 are threatening to open up this weekend the u. S. President has just made an announcement new c. D. C. Guidelines that the centers for Disease Control that essentially gives them the ammunition to defy their local orders to stay at home the u. S. President saying that hes calling on governors to open these houses of worship right away and most interestingly he said if they dont override the governor is now very quickly the u. S. President doesnt have the power to do that under the u. S. Constitution there are very strong states rights but what he seems to be implying is that his department of justice may challenge this under the 1st amendment or the right to freedom of religion Peaceful Assembly but that would take a long time to dry out whats really clear in all of this is in an Election Year where we know that so many who attend church regularly have voted for the u. S. President hes trying to deliver for his constituency he hopes will help him win reelection in november. A new study of the military a drug President Trump says hes taking has shown that coronavirus patients who took it had a significantly higher risk of death compared to those who didnt its the largest analysis to date into hydro chloroquine involving patients on 6 continents julie fisher is the director of the elizabeth r. Griffen program at Georgetown UniversityMedical Center and she says the finding raises some very serious questions i think it confirmed what many people have been worried about in Public Health and in medicine that we have such hopes as a society as oak local
