Security feels he should look into the square if you get to the. Police in kurdistan break up protests by opposition parties and shout outs of parliament by sundays elections. And theres more towns and cities come under attack the head of nato joins calls for an immediate cease fire in the conflict over an accord not kind of the. Hello thank you for joining us u. S. President donald trump says he will leave hospital within hours and despite the u. S. Death toll from the coronavirus now almost reaching 210000 people the president has urged americans not to be afraid of covert 19 tweeting from hospital in the past half hour terms trump said he would be leaving Walter Reed Medical Center at 2230. 00 g. M. T. On monday thats in about 3 and a half hours he encouraged people to not let the virus dominate their lives saying the country has quote really great drugs and knowledge and that he felt better than he did 20 years ago his chief of staff has said his condition continues to improve on sunday trump drew criticism with a surprise drive by for hundreds of his supporters outside the hospital a senior doctor at walter reed called it it responsible and astounding. Well meanwhile the list of white house officials testing positive for 1000. 00 is growing rapidly press secretary caylee mcenaney is the latest prominent west wing figure to be diagnosed with the virus least 2 other Communications Aids plus other mid level staffers have also tested positive but can any says shes experiencing no symptoms she is among several Staff Members who say they hadnt been told about the diagnosis of trump 8 hope hicks who was also working out of the west wing former new Jersey Governor Chris Christie says no Staff Members wore masks or social distanced during preparations for last tuesdays president ial debate christie is in hospital after also testing positive for the corona virus and u. S. Attorney general william barr is isolating the spike testing negative for the virus 4 times since friday he attended a potential super spreader event at the white house last week. Well trump and members of his staff are just a handful of the 7400000 americans who have tested positive since the pandemic has begun more than 2000 people have died in the u. S. Since trumps diagnosis and nearly 150000 cases of being confirmed at least 21 states are now reporting a rise in covert 1000 cases thats according to Johns HopkinsUniversity Schools in the new your in the new york quotes for neighborhoods will be closed from tuesday as the state tries to get ahead of the quickening spread there while lets go live to our White House CorrespondentKimberly Halkett who is outside at walter reed Military Hospital so kimberly youve been there for hours really waiting for an update were waiting perhaps for a press statement but actually we got the news a via twitter how do you see the latest developments 2. Well this is clearly a president who is eager to get out of the hospital weve known for at least 24 hours and that was confirmed by his chief of staff mark meadows and the president has continued to try and project strength through out his illness he has often commented that that is what is required of a leader and he believes that this is that moment for him now so any time there has been a negative report about his condition weve seen the president try to get ahead of that narrative this is no exception the question marks about whether or not the president will spend another night in the hospital its very clear this president wanted to get ahead of this try and get this information out even before his own medical team updated the president s condition with the media now we had been expecting this for a number of hours we knew this determination was likely to come in terms of whether the president could return to the white house but the question becomes what the prognosis is for this president because we know that covert 19 can evan flow that it can have some improvement and then especially with older people if the president s came. And also with some Underlying Health conditions that can again take a turn for the worse now were not far from washington d. C. About a 30 minute drive from the white house its very easy for the president get back here if necessary theres also a medical suite inside the white house but it doesnt have the tools that would be available here at the Walter Reed Medical Center so the president we now know ahead in back the question is will be going by helicopter will be going by motorcade as we saw him briefly doing on sunday with much controversy there are a large number of his supporters that are here certainly he may want to acknowledge them as well but when the president does return to the white house as you reported he returns to a growing number of infections due to covert 1000 as a result of that now known as a super spreader event in the rose garden about 10 days ago with the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court and kimberly i mean youre outside the hospital obviously we are still waiting to hear some kind of News Conference press conference from doctors there arent we. Yeah were expecting to hear from the president medical team exactly the status and this is really been an ongoing issue since the president was admitted there has been a bit of a lack of transparency when it comes to the president s prognosis and his current condition obviously the there is a need to not project alarm but at the same time there is a duty an obligation to give honesty to the American People particularly in advance of a president ial election 29 days away and the criticism has been that that has not been the case that there has been this somewhat optimistic picture painted only to find out later the president at one point had a fever of 103 degrees fahrenheit that he also at one point needed oxygen and at one point was taking a bit of a turn for the worse now he has been under a number of therapies that have allowed him to bounce back but as the president said in his tweet that he feels better than he ever has and not to be afraid of code it very easy to say when youre president of the United States and you are afforded some of the best health care in the country if not the world not necessarily the case for a working class american who may not have Health Insurance and wouldnt have the same access robber to nitty or even be able to afford to go go to a hospital so this is one of the contrasts we expect will be drawn in the coming days and weeks but for now the headline seems to be about the president his condition and how he will return to the white house which we now understand is imminent. Absolutely and kimberly we will speak to you again of course after weve heard a from the president s medical team were meant to be hearing from them any minute now until then Kimberly Halkett outside the walter reed Military Hospital thank you. Well the number of confirmed corona virus cases worldwide has now passed 35000000 but the World Health Organization says about a 10th of the worlds population may have been infected meaning most people are still at risk its director general is calling for global unity to defeat the virus i will never be tired of calling for solidarity finger pointing will not prevent a single infection apportioning blame will not save a single life what saves lives is National Unity and Global Solidarity everyone must play their part from the individual decisions we make to protect ourselves and others.

Security forces of the into the square. Of. These elections it. Seems. 4 stories. 3 see. It precinct. As a crackdown english. Well the preliminary data shows that 3 progovernment parties have secured 107. 00 out of 120. 00 seats the barium de corps unity party whose list includes a president. Because his brother is leading with 24 percent of the vote making in kyrgyzstan or my motherland kurdistan has just over 22 percent of the vote its associated with the powerful time of clan but has avoided either aligning with and opposing the president only to other parties past the 7 percent threshold to win seats in parliament and neither of them the main opposition parties kurdistan has a history of political turmoil in the past 15 years 2 president s have been toppled by revolts and the 3rd is in prison after falling out with his successor.

Ill turn it over to dr again discuss their puter x x. Hi good afternoon again its one of the echo the sentiment of what an honor it is to to be part of this this Wonderful Team here at walter reed yesterday evening the president received his 3rd severe he tolerated that infusion without difficulty and his kidney and liver function continue to be normal our plan is to give the 4th dose of run for this evening before he goes back to the white house and weve made arrangements to deliver the 5th and final dose of his treatment course at the white house tomorrow evening he continues on deck some of his own and again the plan for today is to continue to be up and out of bed eat and drink and work as he is able. To turn it over to dr jason whos an Infectious Disease specialist and the chief of medicine here at walter reed to give some updates on Infection Control thank you. Good afternoon everyone 1st of all i just want to say what an honor its been to be part of this medical team behind me and to care for the president. Since the president s arrival at walter reed hes received medical management that remains in line with National Clinical societal guidelines for treatment of coping 1000 in fact. In addition myself and dr West Campbell have worked very closely with various laboratories in the area state of the our facilities to include you samara in rare on obtaining advanced diagnostic testing to really inform the White House Medical Team of both the status of the president as well as his ability to transmit virus to others also we have worked very closely with the walter reed team to ensure that we are looking very closely at Infection ControlPrevention Strategies and the right posture so that the president can safely return to his residence and without a minute turn it over to dr conley who will answer any final questions. That you. Mention it said today and id like to reiterate myself just how grateful the president and i are to the men and women who will to read a colleague at Johns Hopkins as well as the many federal private institutions that we receive support from. And so long as everything continues on the track that were were experiencing right now this time as the president already tweeted out. Is to get him home later today. With thatll take a couple questions. Back to the white house when he was given steroids here that hes on their steroids and their medicine as you know that are usually given to cohabit patients who are on ventilators or with low oxygen so did you over 310 minute based on that medication because its safe for him to return to the white house he said we send patients home with medications all the time he in fact yesterday afternoon you probably met most of his discharge requirements safely from the hospital and hes returning to a facility to a house medical unit thats staffed 247 top notch physicians nurses p. A. s logisticians and the unit here the team here behind me is going to continue to support us in that nature and. Wider Infection Control measures are you taking and how was it safe for him to drive around in a cotton mouth yesterday and how is it safe for him not to return to the white house where theres been so many cases i was only of a say so the. The president has been surrounded by medical and security staff for days wearing full p. P. And yesterday the u. S. Secret Service Agents were in that same level of p. P. Effect for a very short period of time we worked with our Infectious Disease experts. To make some recommendations for how to keep everything safe down at the white house for the president and those around him. Were looking at where hes going to be able to carry out his duties. You know office space and not just say that its in line with everything weve been doing upstairs for this for the last several days are you. Asking your time i did it last may get it that way that there is no it wasnt planned failing to remember when you had a flat negative i dont want to go backwards. For people on the moral grounds and i understand the context of this thing as i understand it is being done im not involved in that so were already there with this something you know so we try to get patients home and out of the hospital. As quickly as is safe and reasonable every day a patient stays in the hospital unnecessarily is a risk to themselves and right now theres nothing thats being done upstairs here that we cant safely conduct down home. 7 to 10 days was a window that youd be concerned about i dont think were there yet so do you have concerns about potential worsening or reversal and what are your plans for addressing that if it were to happen youre absolutely right and thats why. We all remain cautiously optimistic and on guard because were in a bit of unchartered territory when it comes to a patient that received the therapy she has so early in the course so were looking to this weekend if we can get through to monday with him remaining the same or improving better yet then we will all take that final deep sigh of relief. But as i said 247 world class medical care surrounding him down there were not going to miss anything that we were caught up here. Got to be in the white house how do what does that look like how do you keep it safely quarantined i wish i could go into that more but i just cant what do you. Treat me. So that has something to do yesterday we talked about that several separate drops in his oxygen and we discussed that as a team and elected to start it early in case that persisted or worse and the potential risks and side effects we all discussed we looked at the data and decided that wed rather you know push ahead on it than hold and risk you know the opposite. Of the 1st 3 what have you heard over the campaign as far as travel goes well see. About whether you have that. Same thing is there any thought of. Any there from the fire no i think youve seen the videos and now the tweets and you see him shortly you know. Hes hes back yeah. For any information and a lot of that oh so we weve done routine standard imaging im just not at liberty to discuss that youre youre obviously not telling us what yeah yeah thats clear so there are hipaa rules and regulations that restrict me in sharing certain things for his safety and his and his own health and reasons how many times he said his oxygen drops several times can you hear how many times you but im thinking you think you i mean are thinking yeah. Yeah yes yes so he he the 2 episodes that we talked about yesterday and both times that he received a little bit of oxygen and every covered immediately that required. No was required he wasnt short of breath he
