slowly countries because.

00:31:13
This test had 3 suspected cases so we have

00:31:20
beaten the scene countries was

00:31:22
a good lens until systems but
even they have struggled to cope.

00:31:30
Design is to countries we're
deeply because of the good

To lose all the money. That's why
we're all equal in every country

00:31:47

To still keep. Pedro's also said he

00:31:54
is deeply concerned about the spread to
low income countries as even nations with

00:32:00
good health capacity are struggling to cope
the World Health Organization also said

00:32:06
Europe is now the epicenter of the outbreak
with the very latest developments on

00:32:11
the virus from Europe we are joined by
reporter Catherine field in Paris more

00:32:16
countries Catherine are taking extreme
steps to try to stop this virus from

00:32:23
getting worse to contain it and my understanding
is that French president to mangle

00:32:28
is also stepping up efforts significantly
what can you tell us yes that from day

00:32:34
French time on Tuesday people who don't
want to leave their homes and the president

00:32:41
said that the country is now is
take home wool out he said this is

00:32:45
a health there is no visible enemy
out and everyone has to stay.

00:32:53
just 'd up to it does announcement to the
nation and then address the interior

00:32:58
minister came on television and slid down
details all that's missing is he wasn't

00:33:03
me for

00:33:04
a period of at least 15 days people will
not be able to leave the hugs and legs

00:33:09
that has to go to the show to go to medical
appointments essentially that's it when

00:33:16
you're late autumn you will have to
write down out of what they called the

00:33:20
president at his desk you all to take it
to say why you are leaving your house and

00:33:26
if you don't have that and please can't you
you. You would then be signed so these

00:33:32
are new measures that will place sensually
the president since they have to stop

00:33:36
the spread of the fines and they can only
now do that I love missing the number of

00:33:42
people who come into contact with each other
each day he said if they don't do that

00:33:48
everyone who moves around outside will be
endangering the lives of everyone else of

00:33:53
the take place those who did
to them what about if you have

00:33:58
a dog that you need to take out and walk
or related tell that was very interesting

00:34:02
that came up with the interior minister
who said yes people can go get some fresh

00:34:08
parents need me and you can take you don't
bounce as well but he said you can only

00:34:12
go out on your own you can not that uses
an excuse to go from what you know or even

00:34:19
to put someone else who's got

00:34:21
a dog and you will kill him to get the No
he said you can take your girlfriend will

00:34:26
you have to sign this piece of paper before
you go to say that that's what you are

00:34:30
doing you have to make it

00:34:31
a very short trip and you have to come
straight home you have to do it within

00:34:35
a set. Of your hood it cannot be for
example you can't take the dog on

00:34:40
a tank longer so will it has to be given
by what about the rest of your Obviously

00:34:45
there are boarders all over the place in
Europe with other countries are other

00:34:50
nations there also getting even more serious
as in France yes indeed and like one

00:34:56
of the main job measures that the European
Union has put in place in the last few

00:35:01
hours has been the external borders of the
European Union on now closed and they

00:35:07
will only be opened for those European Union
nationals who are coming home going to

00:35:13
get across borders within the European
Union if you would in another country say

00:35:18
for example if you live nearby the boulder
and you need to cross that border to

00:35:23
goods candles and

a motion see the same in Switzerland
stays of attention say show all markets

00:36:00
restaurants will closed so used to seeing
the whole of your centrally go into

00:36:05
lockdown again the messages need to be here
what people asking about people have to

00:36:11
stay hard the whole idea is to stop
the spread of the virus they've

00:36:17
realized already that they're it's in
communities as well as saying you need to

00:36:23
keep at home staying home because that is
hell so this is even though that variant

00:36:28
phones and it's free so was the health so
this is really going to come under strain

00:36:33
. I really want to end
it there because I was

00:36:36
a really good when and I just thought I
don't know I may not use this next one but

00:36:41
let's put it in. We've heard

00:36:45
a lot about everything closing in France
including grocery stores so how are people

00:36:50
going to have enough food.
Exactly yeah good question was

00:36:57
an announcement from the president that
call was expected. Something good stools

00:37:03
will be allowed to say Oh and you'll still
be able to go online there will be some

00:37:09
close to being able to speak to live it
but essentially if you haven't got don't

00:37:15
then you're going to be looking at every
day I think it was more locals do is open

00:37:21
and that it has on the shelves food that
you want for the next 15 days the United

00:37:26
States government wants Americans to avoid
gathering in groups of more than 10

00:37:30
people at

00:37:31
a time they want schooling to be done at
home and discretionary travel avoid it you

00:37:36
now incidents came Monday by u.s. President
Donald Trump we get more now from v.o.a.

00:37:41
White House Hero Chief Steve Herman the
president in the White House briefing room

00:37:46
also said people should not patronize
bars or restaurants and not unnecessarily

00:37:51
socialize as we combat the virus
each and every one of us has

00:37:56
a critical role to play in suffering the
spread and transmission of visitors as the

00:38:01
president spoke the Dow Jones Industrial
Average closed down 13 percent its worst

00:38:07
performance since the start of the coronavirus
crisis asked about the plunge Trump

00:38:13
said markets will boom again once the
pandemic passes but he acknowledged in the

00:38:18
meantime the economy could go into
a recession Steve Herman v.o.a.

00:38:23
News at the White House so where do things
stand has this virus peaked in the u.s.

00:38:30
And elsewhere and why do some people who
are not high risk get sick while others

00:38:35
don't Joining us to answer these and other
questions as Dr Arthur Caplan professor

00:38:41
of bioethics at New York University
L'Engle netted. Center and the founding

00:38:46
director of the division of medical ethics
where do you believe we are obvious so

00:38:51
called curve I think the bird kids are doing
better social isolation people sitting

00:38:56
at home and started to catch on people are
doing it more is the good news the bad

00:39:01
news is it's

00:39:02
a need president try to press conference
call for more social distancing and social

00:39:07
isolation and I think that's
good because he's been

00:39:10
a little bit denial about this and I fear
that many of his strongest supporters are

00:39:15
distancing you know salacious So I
think we're on the right track we're

00:39:19
a little behind the 8 ball should be
sooner and remember the point here is the

00:39:25
virus so much go away but as we've seen
in Italy if you get huge demand in

00:39:31
a particular region it can swamp the health
care system you can spread the cases

00:39:35
out by slowing down the infectivity rate
to something lower then you can avoid

00:39:41
having your crunch on the hospitals right
which sounds like we are not prepared in

00:39:46
this country for why could the times for

00:39:48
a con it sounds like this is going to get
worse before it gets better I think we're

00:39:52
going to see it get worse over the next
couple of weeks and I think one thing is

00:39:56
happening is America has more test
kits more testing is going on there's

00:40:00
a lot of infections out there no doubt about
it we're going to pick it up it's not

00:40:04
that it's getting worse so we're going to
see what we've been it's been circulating

00:40:09
around out there for

00:40:10
a while but then to scare people we have
to train told them and say look it's not

00:40:14
that the epidemic the pandemic is growing
worse and worse and so we're just seeing

00:40:18
the extent of it is right now somebody said
to me Do you think you've been exposed

00:40:23
and I said absolutely I want to read students
they were going to health care center

00:40:27
my wife is

00:40:28
a hospital administrator I can't imagine
I haven't been exposed to this virus so

00:40:32
maybe lucky I've been able to find the
rostering only had my symptoms but I

00:40:36
suspected most American big cities people
have been exposed they just don't know

00:40:41
it's

00:40:41
a really basically been just interacting
and during the. Thinking and going about

00:40:46
our business while many many people have
it so if this were to quiet down or get

00:40:52
under control is it likely
that we'll be back in

00:40:55
a situation in the fall or winter that's

00:40:57
a great question and I think the answer
is it is likely that we will get the rate

00:41:03
of infection to say well
we're going to face

00:41:06
a political and social decision is that
enough to take off the isolation the

00:41:11
distance saying the job in the restaurants
during the bars back bring the sports

00:41:16
back is that it is going to go to 0 I
think we're going to have some disease

00:41:20
circulating out there and

00:41:21
a very low level once we get through this
1st wave then I'm absolutely certain it's

00:41:27
going to come back we don't have

00:41:28
a vaccine that's what we the people who
are telling Jackson nation should be

00:41:33
kicking themselves in

00:41:34
a but they cause us not to have enough
not seen production not to have enough

00:41:38
companies and facilities and attention
paid to vaccine preventable diseases it's

00:41:44
our only solution in the long run to beating
this thing so in the short run I think

00:41:48
we go one more winter we're going to go
through the same stuff and right may rise

00:41:52
again of the disease for those of us who
like you think you probably are going to

00:41:57
exposed or may have been exposed in even
would test positive but don't have any

00:42:00
symptoms are we building any kind of
immune system which I do the answer is

00:42:04
a question of building up immunity I think
we are because every single virus that

00:42:10
we know that tends to confer our sense of
unity you know it's possible to catch the

00:42:15
same thing again I think that's possible
I believe it's possible with Ebola which

00:42:19
is

00:42:19
a virus flu I'm not sure but I think you can
be reinfected rarely clear that so this

00:42:25
may be

00:42:26
a virus that does permit me infection
even if you hadn't been exposed to it we

00:42:30
don't know hopefully somewhere China Italy
you're in here somebody is surveilling

00:42:37
a group of patients to see you know you've
been exposed to be confirmed to test

00:42:41
let's say you generally get it will start
that in the. USA hope putting some people

00:42:46
under surveillance just established as
to what we really don't know by the way

00:42:50
that's what makes the British approach to
dangerous they're not isolating and doing

00:42:54
all the social distancing as far as they
know the pubs are still in schools are

00:42:58
still open they're still able to mingle
they're doing after heart of unity saying

00:43:02
well let's let everybody get infected
and then when it comes back we'll be in

00:43:06
better shape but that reserve is the chilling
the weak and the vulnerable it isn't

00:43:10
clear that it can't get rejected and you
mention a week in the vulnerable we hear

00:43:15
a lot about the elderly
getting it I just heard

00:43:16
a story about someone under 40 being
extremely sick and a coma from this and and

00:43:22
a new more that was in fact at the neural
state like you know really dangerous for

00:43:26
the people who are 65 it's not that
you can't get it is a newborn or even

00:43:32
a healthy adolescent or adult there are 2
cases but they just aren't many of which

00:43:37
tells me that our immune systems are capable
of fighting this thing there may be

00:43:41
people who have

00:43:42
a particular genetic makeup if you don't
understand that we don't understand that

00:43:46
makes one more vulnerable to the virus
maybe people who have underlying diseases

00:43:52
that we didn't know about maybe they didn't
develop that makes them trained to get

00:43:55
it generally speaking that danger is and
therefore the elderly I would say that's

00:44:00
the group that really has to be protected
