The instant happened within the last hour details so emerging well bring you more on this developing story when more details but as you heard france is going into its 2nd nationwide lockdown on friday president Emanuel Mccraw warned of the rise in cases could be more deadly than the 1st. Reports from paris. In a sort of a t. V. Address french president emanuel micro said a new lockdown was necessary because frances Health Situation had deteriorated rapidly. Even monopod because of what we learned its bring down will be adapted schools will stay open you can continue with it will be permitted to Retirement Homes as in the spring you can only leave home to work for a medical visit to help someone for essential shopping or exercise in a home of. The number of new cases is rising fast in france with more than 50000 on some days more than half of the countrys intensive care unit beds are occupied by kovi patients this doctor says that Health Workers would want for months at a 2nd wave has come. And would be worse than the 1st november is going to be very very hard and we have so we have you know to break that wave that is coming because if we keep accumulating really the cases in the case and cases then very soon we wont have any beds anymore. Really not any for months the government and president of earths people and to live as normally as possible with the virus but these new restrictions reveal just how subtle and think that really is. A government a strike to navigate a delicate process try to find if i could go in terms of focusing more on. Economy the situation we are in now is a result of this precarious balance. The func that the new restrictions come less than 2 weeks after a night time curfew was imposed on most of the country could indicate that the government failed to anticipate the scale of the emergency for some a new look down could have been avoided others it was inevitable either way few would have imagined that they would be forced to stay at home again so soon its aljazeera paris lets go live to our european Broadcast Center in london i. Mean youve got france going into lockdown again germanys chancellor has been speaking of the last number of people in intensive care has doubled over the last 10 days what else did she say. Well i repeated at the end of stock want she had mentioned to on wednesday saying that that was because of the increasingly worsening picture in germany and need to tighten restrictions she had met on wednesday with the leaders of the 16 federal states of the country to come up with a joined up approach to dealing with the country and to dealing with the with the crisis previously each of these individual federal states could essentially set the rules but given the worsening picture it was important now to draw out all the dots up so all nonessential travel is to be restricted bars restaurants theaters cinemas up to close all of this from november the 2nd of relief to parents perhaps those schools and nurseries will be allowed to remain open and they will review these restrictions within 2 weeks time to see whether they need tweaking or adapting now to put it all into perspective germany as a portion of the population has a relatively low death toll of around 10000 and had been ahead of other countries when it came to dealing with the virus because they already had a Contact Tracing system of sorts in place but Health Officials are worried about how fast the virus is spreading while on the burberry and Health Official on wednesday said it was like trying to stop avalon show with his bare hands and merkel has conceded that they could only trace amount 25 percent of all cases back to their original source and whats the situation elsewhere places like spain its in the eastern europe. One by one Different Countries are introducing a variety of different measures weve seen curfews be reasonably effective but perhaps not effective enough in from sun and also in belgium where the picture is darkening concerns coming from hospitals in brussels about their intensive care units being overwhelmed of course france and spain the 2 countries in europe that have reported over a 1000000 cases of coronavirus but in spain it resistance at the moment to introduce a more nationwide law they are basically seeing how the curfew that came in place over the weekend is doing a worsening picture too in the Czech Republic they imposed a curfew last night a new. Makeshift hospital has been hastily constructed to deal with an influx of patients that some new information by researches in the u. K. Gives us an idea of how fast things are spreading here is called the react study and according to researches they could be as many as 100000. 00 new infections daily here and according to this situation here in the capital london the all important are rate the rate in which the infection reproduces in a population is now at around 2. 00 so for every one person whos infected they have the potential to infect up to 3 of the people that is a dire situation here for the capital and the the hint from these researches is that perhaps there needs to be more of a blanket clearcuts possible knock down short term lockdown in place rather than the more localized approach that the British Government is taking the tiered approach to avoid the economic woes that come with us over the full a lot.
