Voting one of embers president ial election. The belorussian Opposition Leader says Police Violence against protesters was the governments biggest mistake and tells aljazeera the president must go plus. A reporting from chiang mai in northern thailand where well tell you why an old protest movement may be about to hit the streets again. India has now confirmed more than 3000000 cases of corona virus after recording over 70000 new infections in one single day the countrys leading the world and the number of new cases covered 19 is spreading through rural areas across the country especially in the north india has the 1st highest number of infections following the United States and brazil elizabeth are on them is the aljazeera correspondent in new delhi liz good morning there. Many regional variations when we begin to unpack these numbers. High pieces so yes indeed it has more than 3000000 confirmed cases now and it is a mixed picture around the country remains the worst affected state it has throughout the last few bombs bought we as seeing the virus move from the really big metropolitan centers like mumbai mumbai is no longer the voiced affected spot in maharashtra delhi is no longer you know one of the worst affected cities and were really seeing it move from places like mumbai delhi chennai to more rural areas and that is the concern as the virus moves from cities that have the best Health Care Infrastructure in the country to parts of the country that have very poor public Health Care Infrastructure now another problem with the numbers is not just that india is the food worst affected country in the world it is that the logical surveys that are being done around the country show that the real number of cases is no many times the confirmed number nonetheless the government when ever they talk about the situation in the country they are always positive we heard from the Health Minister on saturday and he spoke about how he actually said india has the best recovery range in the world that 75 percent of people who had coronavirus in india have recovered and he said that only 1. 8 percent of people whove had corona virus have actually died from from the virus the rest currently have it but again the government is often quotes these numbers but the problem with them is that the syrian logical survey showed a different picture the 2 of the results of these surveys who released over the past week and they show that one of them in the city of today thats in maharashtra that more than 50 percent of the population of 6000000 people have antibodies to just in one city alone more than 3000000 people the. Survey would suggest have had coronavirus here in delhi the results of the survey last week show that the number is nearly 30 percent of people of the 20000000 population in delhi have had the coronavirus elizabeth thank you very much this brown in there reporting live for us out of our bureau in new delhi lets bring in rajeev dust group whos a social epidemiologist and a professor at the center of social medicine and Community Health at joel Nehru University he joins us from new delhi mr descriptor what do the indian authorities need to do to get this trending in the right direction. Now the government. As the overall situation shows desir about it to reduce rates are pretty high. On the other hand the daily new cases is climbing and climbing but on the Positive Side the effective reproduction rate that seems to be. Somewhat stimulating near about once lately about one so that under positive state underside of concern to change is one that its increasingly turning to smaller towns and villages where the public and services certainly recur relatively speaking. As whether the fact that though on the aggregate test seppo not in terms of tests per 1000000 population india is still a lot behind comparable countries such as the brics nations or their text a great city of u. S. And u. K. Ok if india isnt comparable to where other countries are at the moment when it comes to percentages of the population who either are testing positive and or theyre testing positive for the antibodies because the seems to be a fact in the indian narrative when it comes to covert 19 what does india do now to get in line with other countries who are further ahead of it when it comes to reducing the numbers. As i said india is certainly putting in a lot of interest on testing however what is also true is that. The info infrastructure and resources need to be augmented a lot more to make Testing Available to instill greater confidence in them but be consistent so that people come forward with even relatively minor symptoms and get tested and the other thing thats really crucial of. Continuing from here on is the extent to which people practice and certainly enhance preventive behavior such as mosques such as distancing as unlock gets into new only or areas in other words its new order new sectors of the economy open up that the indian product is central state as well as look at that product is certainly in harness the Research Going to get inserted use and greater degrees of very Sensitive Community engagement ok we must leave it there rajiv dust groups are there in new delhi great to get your thoughts at this time thank you very much and.

More antigovernment protests are expected in thailand after weeks of student led rallies calling for elections and a new constitution now thats despite a state of emergency in place to control the spread of coronavirus and the recent crackdown on government critics wayne hay. Calling for political change is coming at a cost for many protest leaders in thailand here in the Northern City of lumpur 2. 00 students were among the latest to be ordered to report to Police Charges against them for their part in organizing a peaceful rally for most of our but i feel like thailand is becoming a country that takes away peoples rights its honestly shocking whats concerning about this situation is the fact that a country that claims to be democratic is trying to stop students expressing their opinions of this student led Antigovernment Movement has spread to many parts of the country including the north and northeast traditional strongholds of a group known as the red shirts that staged large rallies in the capital bangkok in 2010 that ended in a violent military crackdown that been largely quiet in recent years but as the momentum of the current protests grows red shirt leaders in the north of fixing their loudspeakers and entering the fray panchen with the direction students are going these protests have more power than before because everyone is coming together it isnt just red shirts or adults or people who follow politics. The protesters want a different more Democratic Political system from the one that allowed the army general who led a coup in 2014 to stay on as Prime Minister after last years election but they also want to change an Economic System that has helped to make thailand one of the most unequal countries in the world which is being highlighted and made worse by the corona virus pandemic. The city of chiang mai in the north relies heavily on International Tourism and is being hit harder than most the protest movement is already showing signs of spreading way beyond just students and the city probably encapsulates the threat that poses to the government most people here have never supported this government and now many are hurting economically. Despite all the arrests and charges against proteus leaders they say they wont be deterred and will continue fighting for a Better Future from poor home and i just had a hung fear can only be used once or twice theres been many cases where they tried to report the protestors but at the end of the day after everyone is over that fear it becomes a catalyst to come out more and go against the government. Apart from arresting and charging leaders the government and police havent tried to stop the protests yet but as the Movement Grows and becomes more diverse intensifying the pressure on the government that approach may change soon wayne hay Al Jazeera Chiang Mai thailand.
