So the enormity of the Coronavirus Crisis is triggering fears about the ability to treat patients in some parts of the world india now has more than half a 1000000 infections driven by another record daily increase announced a few hours ago the Capital Region of new delhi alone it expects 500000 cases by the end of july and thats led to worries about a shortage of medical equipment and a scramble to build temporary facilities on friday the United States reported it is increasing cases since a pandemic began florida and texas among the states delaying efforts to reopen and increasing restrictions and europe is forging ahead with reopening but it struggling to reach a consensus on how to do it you leaders have not yet agreed on which countries will be allowed quarantine free access from wednesday well saying botty is a doctor working on covert 1000 cases and president of the progressive medicos and scientists for india and he says the easing of restrictions need to be managed more carefully. I think personally as a physician i dont see any at you as a law because the guard says no one did to you anything be the have rules and there. Are a number of things as well the best and the as it was one of the just and thats not the be out there that i was expecting for the one who are students they isolated more bisham small donors betrayed that you know after us mission but doing that bit of. Your thoughts would be to the tune of transmission and or need that part of their way to just say one thing and are not going to be already very sure is the way this is where it doesnt happen and that is also exposed the great situation of india lake. Lake we have seen the make it into places many millions of migrants well on who was beheaded also seen the who or what are people who and get there to be. Just because of it is the work of the student themselves full there is that there are deaths because of their awful and because of stupid on a minute not management of the mongol bishops we have seen deaths of other than on the disease at the innocent deaths of their fish fossil. Well the top Infectious Diseases experts in the United States is one of a serious problem as covered 1000. 00 cases increase its also a concern that young people are getting infected at an alarming rate helen fisher reports now from washington d. C. As in cases after almost 2 months away its back this moment in the coronavirus pandemic is different and faced with a surge in cases across the country the White House Coronavirus task force faces a renewed threat were in a much stronger players the truth is we did slow the spread we flatten the curve recent days have brought a Record Number of infections 16 states are seeing a rising number of cases and infection rates states like texas which had started to reopen no bringing back called restrictions after a 145 percent rise in cases in just 14 days bars closed restaurants cutting capacity Public Gatherings Limited houstons mayor calls it a crisis the numbers are jumping exponentially and rising fast and we are quickly moving in the wrong direction arizona has no more cases per head of population than brazil 88 percent of the states intensive care beds are full doctors see a Health System on the edge and as has been experienced in trying to make for each other at some point theres a Tipping Point and were hoping we dont already actually say this is tender waiting to explode but ive thinking that some of that has already been let and that is concerning the man who has played a major role in the white house response had this warning to young people the thing that you really need to realize that when you do that you are part of a process so if you get infected you will infect someone else who clearly will infect someone else we know that happens because the reproduction element of the virus is not less than one so people are infecting other people and then ultimately you will infect someone who is vulnerable the task force met at the department of health not here at the white house opponent says. That shows the president s level of engagement with the crisis no the president also said the virus would start to go away in the warmer weather it hasnt one expert saying this isnt the 2nd wave its still the 1st alan fischer aljazeera at the white house. To the United Kingdom which is set to cancel the 14 day quarantine for people arriving from countries it considers to be low risk for covert 19 it will divide nations into green and red categories and those from the 1st 2 groups will no longer have to go into isolation now these rule changes are due to be announced next week the u. K. Is also expected to established socalled bridges with france with italy spain germany and also with greece and that would mean korean teen free holidays for travelers to and from those countries but the United States and south america are expected to be among those in the red u. K. Self isolation policy came into effect on june the 8th its been criticized by Airlines Airports and the hospitality sector and lets join a paul brennan whos joining us from kingston in sorry paul so these restrictions being eased and peoples thoughts turn to the possibility of overseas travel so where are we with. Well were at the stage where the restrictions which are imposed just 3 weeks ago and were criticized roundly at the time for being both too late and too blunt are now being nuanced and refined somewhat the number of countries it will apply to the lifting of this quarantine requirement is relatively small the exact countries that it will apply is not yet been defined that will be refined on monday tuesday or wednesday that said the relief thats being felt by the travel industry and ive spoken lunchtime today with the association of British Travel agencies is palpable and what were seeing is evidence of a mad rush of online bookings just this morning the travel agencies that have physical properties here in Kingston Upon Thames town center still closed but online were seeing a big rush they say that said there is. Tensions about which countries are going to be clarify classed as safe to travel and as you mentioned the United States is certainly not one of those who sort of spike yesterday in the number of coronavirus cases in the u. S. Weve got European Union envoys who are meeting to look at their travel restrictions in relation to International Travelers coming to the European Union the United States is unlikely to make it into a safe list being brought in compiled by them and its unlikely to make it into any list thats been brought put forward by by the u. K. Either so yes theres a long way to go before the Airline Industry and the travel industry can breathe a sigh of relief and hope to get back to normal because i let me just finish that the number of people we spoke spoken to here in the center theyre saying this year its a write off for the holidays theyre staying at home right now and for those who have been staying at home on the ground in restrictions now be eased theyve been allowed out to a certain degree and its caused some problems for the police. The police are under intense pressure and theres a combination of factors at work here 1st of all there is that contradiction if you like between what is the law what the government is set down in the law as to what the restrictions are and then theres also guidelines which the government has issued in the police a kind of sometimes court in between having to try to force law but being unable to enforce just guidelines the of a fact is that our play here is that weve had a bit of a heat wave in the last 7 days here in the u. K. And that has sort of encouraged people to get out and about theres also the sense of relief that as we emerge from lockdown hit here in the u. K. At least people are enjoying and making the most of this newfound sense of freedom even though there is the possibility that restrictions may be reimposed so youve had unrest when police have gone in to try to break up block parties street parties that have that have crept up in and pumped from 2 way the police have found themselves under a a hail of bottles and sticks and and rocks and its been very unsavory scenes 3 incidents just here in london in liverpool where the Football Club just won the premier league title its been 2 consecutive nights of a big celebrations that the police are very concerned about against all of this the backdrop of these big gatherings present the possibility for a new spike in corona virus infections or paul thanks very much reporting there from. Now if your Prime Minister says an agreement over its mega dam project should be finalized in 2 to 3 weeks its grown renascence dam has been the source of an increasingly bitter dispute with egypts and sudan talks had stalled over the speed at which ethiopia should fill the reservoir sudan and egypts have both raised the issue with the Un Security Council while ethiopia built the grand renascence dam on the blue nile which is the source of most of the gnarls waters egypt in sudan downstream they depend heavily on it in fear that their water supply is could be put at risk if you have here says the hydro power the dam will produce is essential for its economic growth. From have a morgan who has more from sudans capital of khartoum it took a meeting between the Prime Ministers of sudan egypt as well as other members of the African Union including you correct chair of the African Union south african president as the environment for starts to try to bring that recites together after several rounds of talks through now what is what the statement that was released by the Prime Minister of the office of the Prime Minister of the im told is that other things besides how to read that they will resume talks immediately on a technical level i was repeatedly heard statements from the site saying that 95 percent of the issues have been resolved and that theres only remaining 5 percent as well as the legal aspects. But more ahead on the news hour including they say their imprisonment at sea we look at the difficulties facing workers left stranded for months because of a global pandemic. Plus the gulf thats really leading the way at the latest p. G. A. Tour events still have that support. And has a new Prime Minister and government ending months of political stalemate the parliament picked me martin for the job is for oil party has formed a Coalition Government with rivals feet again the greens are also part of the new government outgoing Prime Minister live right is expected to take over the role halfway through the governments 5 year term lets big now to denote a back corner whos director of research at the school of law and government to Dublin City University joins us now from dublin via skype so 1st up to 140. 00 days after the poll we finally have this coalition is it a coalition that can work. Well i think it is a coalition that can work i mean ireland for many years was an outlier in europe because the 2 major parties were center right we didnt have this normal center right center left by it that most countries have and the reason for that is that the partys origins lie in the civil war and arent a 100 years ago and thats really the the identity that both parties have so why have they changed this simply because their support base has got smaller and smaller over the years and in the last election they both lost fold so in many ways they lost the election in february but they have gained power now by an Unprecedented Alliance which is largely the chin Fane Shin Fein got the largest vote in the election in february but both parties were united in the view that the center left party should not be in government so it was a will to power by these 2 you might say losing parties in the election that have brought about this very historic an Unprecedented Alliance and as you say the green party are in the mix as well because they simply needed the numbers even phina fall in phoenix combined didnt have a majority but with the greens they do how much the supporters have been among the voters the hardcore voters the respective supporters of each individual polity given this historic reconciliation of this political few between fianna fail and if you go. Surprisingly perhaps considering the history all 3 parties overwhelmingly endorsed the programme for government and again i think its because there were advantages for all 3 parties being a fall house and being in power for 9 years in a gale came 3rd in the selection and thought they were going into opposition and the green party saw it as an unprecedented opportunity to exert great leverage for what is a relatively small party with only 12 seats so they all had a reason to support this so i think it does have the ability to be sure of both but if i can account under state how historic it is it would be like if the the British Labor party and the conservative party unite us against a 3rd party or the republicans in america and the democrats united against a 3rd party thats the level of change were talking about here but there will be many people who will be on happy an ardent of course because you know the electorate voted in unprecedented numbers for shin fein in february and thats not reflected of course in the composition of this government so i think in the longer term this will be a beneficial outcome for shin fame because now they are the leaders of the opposition and and they will be organizing in that capacity over the next 5 years yes i know you mention the greens in the 2 larger policies needed the support of the green so what will the green party get out of this deal with the green gets quite a lot of course that was a subject of great debate within the green party they had their vote yesterday 76 percent of the Green Party Membership approved of what they get is they get a commitment to reduce Carbon Emissions irish Carbon Emissions by 7 percent every year for it for the next several years some might argue that this is what weve already committed to doing internationally but thats seen as a big win we have increased spending on you know bicycle lanes on the destroying routes as opposed to spending on roads but it was a very divisive debate within the green party and indeed amun ra in the lead of the green party is facing a leadership challenge in a few months time. There are plenty of potentially divisive issues ahead and they will need to take a unified approach not least of dealing with the countrys one of the countrys worst ever recessions because the current of earth well thats true and in fact it was very symbolic today that the meeting of the parliament took place in dozens Convention Center which is an 8000 seater center and that was to allow the 160 member of parliament to be socially distance to be 2 metres apart from each other so we have spent billions in the last few months in maintaining a relative rule and relative normality despite the virus but the government is really committed itself to spending its way out of this recession and theres a lot of people who wonder whether the sums will add up whether we can deliver on all the things that are committed in this program for government while being in an unprecedented recession as a result of this virus and thats something that time will tell and whether theres enough trust of course between the street parties to see it through because there will be adversity they will get a very short honeymoon and i think that therefore were in for a very interesting time and as i said we have nothing in terms of historical precedent to go on this is completely on chartered waters right be very interesting to see how it all pans out to dinner by cohen we appreciate your expertise in the science very much youre welcome. Now Facebook Says it will start flooding up more posts that break its rules the head of the u. S.

And has a new Prime Minister in Government Spending months of political stalemate the parliament picked to be hailed mountain for the job as fianna foil party has formed a Coalition Government with the rivals. Ethiopias a Prime Minister says an agreement to sudan and egypt over its make a dam project should be finalized in 2. 00 to 3. 00 weeks talks stalled over the speed at which ethiopia should fill the granary nations dams reservoir. Well for more on this lets speak now and to make delaware to miss a whos an independent Water Sciences research joins us on skype from. Welcome to the program if you want to minister says that consensus has been reached to finalize a deal within 2 to 3 weeks but one wonders what form this compromise this consensus will take. To make going to it is nick clark here in doha im happy you can hear me. Ok good lets try again just saying that the ethiopians water minister has said that a consensus has now been reached but one wonders what form this consensus will take what do you reckon. Well thats it for thankless questions that have been going on in the past few days has resulted in the because its easier to sell the technical technical difficulties for the texans understand to just one more thing next and this is much to this week. And they will be able to flesh out the rest of whats left about the technical discussions and also that legal matters is that we get matters for work where we do not that is what were holding up and were chiefs so i think were going to t. V. Vellum in some time so that you know the last of the check the math things that we can. Get in that nation stand. To get back to the negotiations to write this from this compromise coming mom how much confidence is that the compromise will enable them to start filling in july. Well. Thats them can they get back side of the government business that every wednesday once just at the beginning of july and i think its and its in the interest of all these 3 countries to to come to an it be even before i that i am so i am pretty confident that they can come to an agreement in 2 or 3 weeks time and the fact that i think it was finally. This process and the issue of that very has come back to africa gives me a lot. Especially the fact that a meeting happened or i think its going to come to my day actually gives me a lot the hope the terms. And then so that vision that this will be speak up to actually want to finish just. Want to continue even in this. Expected period of time in the beginning to be exposed as far as i know the feeling was still continuing to lie so there is even more stress on them or. More getting demands on the side of the speaker just to. Fine then let me just ask you what is it that ethiopia has brought to the table to enable this consensus to be reached because there was a lot of division and you just mentioned the Security Council the Un Security Council have been appealed to to try and sort this out so how is it now that theyve actually managed to reach this consensus what what has ethiopia compromised on. Thanks not to have to look at company my son but i do see country stuff coming to terms of their feeling of arrangements so the original plan from take you inside was to get it in 3 years and that from the egyptian side was to put it in 12 to 7 years it seems to have been leaking to the devil or to 70 percent then the details of the filling in time so what happens during just times what happens during dry curates and extended dry periods this way thats taking what i say so the number that this question should not be cured in time so what has it youre given and what has egypt given that how it is to be but yourself on terms of the negotiation because its not just one cheek conceding to the other but its a joint session between these 2 countries that going for joint agreement on giving and i think in time so much technical detail so filling up the back there happened significant strides concessions and. Compromises from both of these countries so in terms of weve agreed to sit down in 4 to 7 years is already a big concession because curiously speaking if youre going to get the down in 3 years theres also a big consensus on what to do during that period so and doing i dont doubt they have an hour on what they wanted to shrink east depending on the story if anything on how much what theyre stored in the side of the sticking points and what to do during extended i mean its an extended job of yours so it will still be discussing i hope so that the discussion should i think youre get them to what has been given what has occurred since you did or given ok this issue is that it should be sent off the last time as we described in the time we do appreciate your perspective on this thank you very much and if thats meant then im at my side and it would a Science Research not buckstone has announced a record increase in fuel prices i need days before the end of the Financial Year growth of ours has done to the economy which is strong for the 1st time in 7 decades most drivers will now have to pay around this. More to follow there is depending on the type of fuel. To the wave of outrage on social media lets go live now to Camilla Hyder who joins us from islamabad and to give us a flavor of the reaction. Well the reaction all very. Strong where they have a right where did it. All where did it say about discomfort at a time when the government had. A considerable reduction in the oil price of a crash avoidance price to go to the International Market now we are told that because they have hiked up they want to populate and also the fact that they say that data in issue that supply chain now because. There were reports of hoarding an extensive export of on it found. That of god had led to a crisis situation. Station. Coming at that time when the government. Because of the hard Economic Times and the opposition of. Munitions did have a knock on effect across the economy because everything is dependent on the price of fuel and budgets on it a major import and these holiday Economic Times just just how difficult things.

Argentina was one of the 1st countries in the region to impose a Strict Lockdown to prevent the spread of disease its been over 3 months but a recent spike in cases in hard hit areas that include one aside is has convinced the government to extend it even further but imo i know not everyone agrees with what were doing but we need to do something to stop the amount of contagions money to make sure there are enough beds and guarantee that all arjun tines get the attention they deserve for many this is a mistake to extend something that has a konami consequences but the World Bank Says not Alberto Fernandez that its the most severe economic crisis since the 1970 s.

The fatigue is psychological we tell it even 6 months is a long time and we havent stepped on a shelf for 7 months we havent seen a single new person its a kind of imprisonment about 400000 merchant seamen thought to be stranded at home or at sea due to coronavirus related travel restrictions and that could eventually have an impact on global trade 80 percent of which is carried by ship the supply of goods across the world is what keeps factories working shop shelves stocked and even fuel pumps full shipowner your article is good for me curly says whereas things are slowly starting to loosen up its still difficult and expensive to rotate crews out of port where there was a device that they have started to allow crew rotation we inquired as to how this can be done and the list of requirements was such that it made it impossible. So the vessel had to be there 2 days before the office had to go on board and the job and cost cuts had to be done and the vessel had to wait and then the cash would come back and the crew would go would get off and the 2 would be quarantined then the group that would come in would be part of the men the vessel that the wait for that would it was quite easy and it goes on and on fatigue and Poor Mental Health are dangerous at sea they create conditions in which accidents can happen and lives are lost the crews stranded around the world of finding it difficult to understand why theyre considered potential sources of infection they spend weeks between ports and theyre among the most isolated people in the world jumpstart openness aljazeera. Thats an hour from guy whos a senior economist at Capital Economics and he says governments need to enact exemptions for shipping crude in important. Its more a kind of humanitarian problem for the seamen theyre involved rather than a macroeconomic problem that because of the big global downturn is now underway its been a sharp fall d in global trade which isnt there hasnt been as much demand as you might have otherwise out for their Services Also the fact is that they can actually stay on the ship so you continue to work i think problems will actually arise if they refused to the ships wouldnt get insurance and then they wouldnt be able to sell off so at the moment its not a Macro Economic crisis its more of a humanitarian its really up to governments in authority is around the world to him to get a grasp of this problem and i think one way that you could do is is to designate ship work as is is essential work is the same way that lorry drivers have which would allow them to switch between ports and travel more easily that is one thing that could be done quite easily.
