Well 1st of all we have to say that the number has not increasing munis been a sure way we are searching infected people in a very different way and old course as much as you look for them in the most human food and the most to find them but what is important to underline is that we find infected people not people with the disease the is the mom but the fraction of people with the disease is quite small and the fractional persons who are severely ill at ease even smaller therefore we cannot say that we are in the same condition as we were in march where the virus is spread without being even. Without being even aware of their precedents and spreading that much than we found all at the same time the diseased persons who mainly we couldnt cope with it. Now we are searching for infected people to allowing them to spread the virus without being conscious of their infectious can i ask you about those who are infected but dr so were seeing and in some parts of europe and even in the United States where. Doctors are saying well its the young people now who are infected with corona virus because theres corona virus 15 again theyre not really paying attention to the restrictions so in italy is there a particular demographic at this point that is more susceptible to the corona virus. Of course we know that in 50 beauty is increasing with a therefore the young people are less prone to be infected but even less prone to the diseased theyre full of the are the most dangerous fraction of the infected people the totally acid to man to ones who can be responsible for spreading the virus without being conscious of being infected this is the problem because at school and in social activities young people are less prone to be conscious of that theyre injure and therefore we mass to reinforce the commitment to where ask to be aware of their potential being factious for their parents for instance or for their family members and this is what. Prime minister reinforced the yesterday. Indicating with the needs of restraint our possibility of spends a lot of time without being aware of the degrees of infection and the latest measures announced by the Prime Minister. He said the mayor is are allowed to now close all public squares in the evening to stop gatherings are those are those measures allowed for the or fear that italy may be heading towards full lockdown like at the back in march. I dont i dont really believe there will be a need for a lock down a 2nd one because these major is a mom which there is also the possibility of commute the. Teaching to. Distance teaching and multi for older students bills all the higher classes well make a. A great day for and its in the future the spreading of the gardens and the jurors in the next 2 or so i think that we should be confident that this nation is. Effectively with the increase of the numbers we have observed in the last week all right we will leave it there we thank you very much dr gloria tell jani for speaking to us from rome. Prevention.

But 1st policing guinea have fired tear gas on warning shots at opposition supporters who are claiming victory for their candidate in the president ial election but the final results arent expected for days nicolas hoch reports. This is when the trouble start not enough observers too many votes to count Election Officials say a Record Number of getting came out to take part in this election most are 1st time voters queuing hours before the polls open to have a say in the countrys future despite a divisive and violent president ial campaign with candidates for mentoring ethnic tension the voting was peaceful you dont need. To give your vote but not your life we are what we have in common the stronger than what divides us the nation is what we have in common politics divides us we have to favor the mation we have to tell ourselves that we are rather not to his Political Parties president s guineans Peoples Party is largely backed by the Milling Group while delos Opposition Party is mostly supported by the philosophy people at the age of 82 president alpha conde amended the constitution allowing him to run for a 3rd mandate despite widespread protest. This is a lever to move goods you can trust but i wish were Free Democratic and transparent election and that everything is done peacefully and with tranquility we will make sure all polling stations are secure guinea cannot develop if there is not Peace Security and unity we call on all candidates who avoid violence already opposition candidate is saying he believes he has won the vote and accuses the Election Commission of favoring incumbent president conde. Descriptive. Im not worried about the outcome of the election however i have a major concern for peace in cohesion if mr alpha conde tries to seize power for cunning in violence this would not be acceptable to our supporters and to beginning in patriots who have voted for change. While the west african body ecowas and the African Union sent observers the e. U. Didnt analysts fear the worst is yet to come with candidates refusing to accept the outcome of the vote putting the electoral process in jeopardy. He means one thing when they start meeting for the last. Time. Regardless of ethnicity it is have almost no access to electricity or Running Water with 20 percent of the population living in extreme poverty and yet the country is rich in minerals home to the largest reserves of bauxite in the world the challenge for the countrys next president is to deliver on what has become a broken promise political stability and the Economic Prosperity so many getting into waiting for. Lets bring in nicholas hockey is following the latest developments from the car thats in neighboring senegal so in the us who is leading right now in the polls. Well during the Election Commission wont give out its official results until 72 hours after the polls closed that would be wednesday and in a statement that minister of security said that whoever would announce the results will be arrested we saw several guinea and local channels being shut down because they were keeping a tally of the polls at the polling stations but if we go by the streets then clearly it seems that jello is winning we saw celebrations especially in the falana neighborhoods of the capital of the pulse in the capital late last night with people coming out on to the streets chanting his name those that jubilation those celebration were quelled by Security Forces who shot tear gas and rubber bullets on the alpha conde side no such celebration outside his Political Party an eerie calm and so theres a sense that we could have a repeat of what happened in 2015 during the last elections where there was no clear majority d in the 1st round and there would be a 2nd round where with the front runners vying for for the race in an election that would take place 2 weeks after the results would be announced by the Election Commission yeah and once those results are announced that well have to be looking out for if that outcome is going to be accepted. Thats the major challenge for forgive me itself its the lack of trust in the political system the lack of trust between the Political Parties and the candidates and the lack of trust in the institution that is holding. These tally in the count and the counting which is the Election Commission itself already said at the end of the vote late last night publicly saying listen im clearly the winner and if im not announced the winner then there will be trouble the Civil Society group the front for the National Defense of the constitution who had mounted protests throughout the year to prevent the committee from tweaking the constitution that allowed him to run for a 3rd mandate well they said that if they won yet again then they would be launching a protest against this no the at the heart of it is the man himself the 82 year old was a political opponent for years and has won 2 mandate previously and he believes and hes hoping that he could one win again despite widespread protests that weve seen this year the 82 year old if he wins would be one of the all the president s in africa by the end of his mandate he would be close to 90 in a country where the vast majority of the population there in are under the age of 25. 00 in the vast gap between its leadership and the people that is creating so much tension so many of the people that weve seen on the on the streets are young people that seek a better guinea a one where there is jobs in their home country and also a calm day during the campaign has really focused on his economic record the fact that he has not only got the country through the recent coronavirus but most importantly has got the country through a bold outbreak where remember so many people have died and its a country that is so rich in minerals and should be so wealthy and yet the population lives. By the vast majority under the poverty line and thats whats at stake in this election beyond the ethnic tension that we weve saw we saw during the campaign its who will get a fair share of that pie and who will be the president that were able to bring that wealth to the young gideon population very all right nick and phyllis hack thank you for that update from the car or preelection violence in ivory coast has killed at least 2 people fighting in bongo on who took place 2 weeks before the president ial votes the city is a stronghold of leading opposition candidate.

The central bank has been using what is left of its foreign currency reserves to support basic imports after the local currency lost 80 percent of its value in the past year but up close or things insist the subsidies should not be lifted they fear social unrest but there are those who argue against the policy because it encourages the smuggling of cheap fuel and medicine to neighboring countries they say a safety net should instead have been created for the poor.

Special envoy to afghanistan says attacks are threatening to derail peace talks and. Calls inflammatory rhetoric doesnt help either a suicide bomber killed at least 13 people in the Western Province of gore on sunday and tens of thousands in Helmand Province have fled increased fighting between taliban and Government Forces the taliban says excessive u. S. Airstrikes violates peace negotiations joining us from kabul the afghan president s spokesman thanks very much for talking with us on the aljazeera news hour so if we look at the attack thats of placing gore and other taliban is neither denying nor taking responsibility for this attack in your opinion what would be the message behind this type of the sack. I think its an unfortunate masters that they are trying to send which is violence despite the fact the International Community yeah i think people are now ready to talk to this group but the concentration of these kind of violence and brutal attacks on young people can really cause a serious threat to the Peace Process that millions of americans are hopeful of war so i think its time for the taliban to to look at the their. Behavior in this look at they have to reassess what they are doing and then these should not just revise the current abortion and he were just there for ending this war. So what i understand youre saying is you are pointing the finger of blame at the taliban even though they have not claimed responsibility for this attack but how how exactly does this jeopardize peace talks and to what extent doesnt threaten the enter afghan peace talks that are meant to be taking place. Well 1st of all they are behind me that look at the office of the deliberate often subpoena not on him and will look at these. Regular attacks that the photo of these me goes with explosives and the targets government offices and so theres no doubt a big claimant or deny it we know about who are behind this and thats the challenge of course these attacks against the commitments they claim that they are doing something in the Peace Process so the violate all the terms of that agreement that they made with us in the cemetery so the taliban has to realize that the road to peace the former it is to end this while we do everything in not only not the government but the International Community but we all do is to pursue the taliban to end this nonsense war and violence but mr so i think i mean when we have the taliban when we speak to the taliban are are certainly question them on our know what theyre doing but but from your a point of view in the afghanistan governments point of view how are you moving the Peace Process forward. We have moved a lot look at the steps and actions that we dig and the Peace Process the Afghan Government released 6000. 00 taliban prisoners which is not unprecedented in any peace the in the has to so we take every move that would. The Peace Process to move forward or to a positive direction so young then when you look at the actions of a dollar and so you do not see that that kind of commitment so thats why now it is up to the time and if they want to continue. Their fight against the admin people they are good people are really need to defend their country but if they are not effective they are embracing their support and if you have beast the 1st thing is to stop stop wyman so thats very clear i want to go shooting team is in dark for a couple of weeks now and i just want to see where the taliban are doing they have to stop violence but you are still kind of stuck when it comes to disputes over procedural issues for example you havent really touched on the Critical Issues at stake like how to combine the 2 very different versions of the future governments and to one so there you also seem stuck and it doesnt seem like there is urgency on your part to to move this forward how do you move it forward i would disagree with you that there is an urgency in our sight our team has more clarity today to talk to the taliban we do have our framework of talks and we encourage the taliban to come forward and talk with us they cannot just go to time move around and undo not talk with us so its absolutely in their. End no we have done everything to make sure that this process will move forward there is there to see there are steps taken by as the everything so its now up to the top level. Thank you very much for speaking to us from couple things the coronavirus is closing borders and its restricting travel worldwide particular due to the worlds 37 most developed countries in the o. E. C. D. So the organization for Economic Cooperation and development is predicting International Migration will fall to historic lows this year new residency permits within the organisations members almost halved in the 1st 6 months and during that time its estimated asylum requests in europe fell by 30 percent Migrant Workers are also suffering and their jobs are more likely to be temporary or in the worst affected sectors such as hospitality or tourism many are in Front Line Work such as supermarkets or health care almost 25 percent of all doctors are Migrant Workers lets speak to jonathan the senior policy analyst at the o. E. C. D. Hes joining us via skype from paris thanks very much for your time with us on aljazeera lets look at this particular reports that you have put out where you say that migration flows have increased over the past decade in some progress has been made to improve the integration of immigrants and host countries but now some of these gains may be reversed because of the coronavirus pandemic whats been the fallout. Thats right thanks a lot but i mean so the fall out of the initial restrictions on travel worked really that migration dropped enormously. This is following on almost a decade of steady increases in the number of migrants of different categories coming into the country and thats pointed out fell 46 percent in just the 1st quarter of 2020 and fully 70 percent in the 2nd quarter so we saw a real decline in migration especially outside of europe where you had a number of important destinations like us or australia found korea where visas just were being issued and its true that its also affecting on o. E. C. D. Countries saudi arabia for example. Had only 50000. 00 migrants coming in in the 2nd quarter of 2020 compared 2600000 labor migrants in the quarter that in the same time. So its true for Migrant Workers its quite complicated the opportunities for migration are much reduced. And. This is likely to continue for some time to the short term effect is just restrictions on entry a longer term effect. In changing economic circumstances as you pointed out and we point out in the report theres been a very severe reversal of some of the progress and integration that immigrants have made in many of the countries. Theres been really remarkable improvements in the Employment Situation which are at risk right now because corporate annually so you know to single out you say that the Migrant Workers of course have been on the front line in the crisis because in many cases they account for a large share of the o. E. C. D. S medical work forth but they are the ones that have been particularly suffering in this crisis. Yes thats true one of the. Findings is that. Foreign born workers are higher share what are considered he workers are essential workers in the o. E. C. D. Countries that includes Health Workers are mentioned but its also Front Line Workers who are in the Food Production personal care and other sectors like that and you can see that the reaction has been to continue for example to admit. Health workers and agricultural Seasonal Workers in most areas countries as far as possible even during these now. And in terms of the long term effect so what do you expect the impact to be well the Health Crisis will it will end up with economic effects will take much longer i think in the short medium term youll see that some of the focus will be more on the integration issues for migrants who are already in the o. E. C. D. Countries and for us less interested in. Increasing International Recruitment which was the trend in previous years and you also might see on the other side that higher skilled people are less likely to want to move around so there might be a reduction is in mobility in the medium term and so we see countries so that its reduced opportunities for people to leave ok we thank you very much for speaking to us from paris thank you thanks very thanks very no australians are able to enjoy outdoor life in victoria state again after more than 100 days of coronavirus lockdown at strict measures remain in place for restaurants and shops are the only take away and delivery options state accounts for more than 90 percent of virus deaths nationwide is rumors easing its 2nd lockdown after a month of restrictions the falling infection rate is allowing israelis to travel more than a kilometer from home parks beaches and kindergartens can open along with restaurants but only for a takeaway.
