The migrants, mostly from Africa and the Middle East, must then undergo health checks, Italian officials said.To get more
world breaking news, you can visit shine news official website.
The German rescue vessel, Alan Kurdi, has been refused access to Italian and Maltese ports over coronavirus fears.
Italy's transport ministry said the move was necessary because Sicily's health services were already stretched.
Allowing the migrants to disembark from the Alan Kurdi ship,
operated by the German humanitarian group Sea-Eye, would put too much
pressure on the island's local authorities, Italy's civil protection
chief Angelo Borrelli said.
As of Sunday, Italy as a whole had reported 19,899 coronavirus deaths and more than 156,363 confirmed infections.
The country reported 431 deaths over a 24-hour period - the lowest
daily rise in more than three weeks.Mr Borrelli signed a document on
Sunday ordering the Coast Guard, with the assistance of the Italian Red
Cross, to provide a ship "in the next few hours" to quarantine and test
the 156 migrants near Italian territorial waters, local media report.
No decision has been made about the final destination of the
migrants, who were rescued from small boats in distress off the Libyan
coast, officials said.
Italy has previously said that migrants rescued and brought to its
shores become the responsibility of the European Union (EU) and should
be fairly distributed among member states.
Sea-Eye has also called on EU leaders to find a more permanent
solution to the migrant crisis in the Mediterranean.Earlier this month,
the EU's top court - the European Court of Justice - ruled that Poland,
Hungary and the Czech Republic had broken EU law by refusing to take in
refugees under an agreement to ease the burden faced by Italy and
Greece.
In Greece, a number of migrant facilities were recently quarantined
after residents tested positive for coronavirus. Aid groups have warned
that an outbreak of Covid-19 at overcrowded camps - where sanitation is
poor - could allow the virus to spread quickly.
There have so far been no confirmed cases of the virus in camps on
five Greek islands, where roughly half of all EU asylum seekers live.
The lesson of COVID-19, influential politicians and commentators are
claiming, is that the United States must delink itself from China.
“China unleashed this plague on the world,” Senator Tom Cotton of
Arkansas recently told Sean Hannity, “and China has to be held
accountable.” Cotton, who has proposed legislation to ban Americans from
buying Chinese pharmaceuticals, isn’t alone. Representative Jim Banks
of Indiana has urged Donald Trump to boost tariffs on Chinese products
and put the money—which he incorrectly thinks would come from Chinese
exporters rather than American importers—into a fund for Americans hurt
by the coronavirus. In a recent essay in The American Interest, the
political scientist Andrew Michta used the virus to demand a “hard
decoupling” from China. Citing that essay approvingly, my Atlantic
colleague Shadi Hamid recently argued, “After the crisis, whenever after
is, the relationship with China cannot and should not go back to
normal.”To get more

These arguments are exactly backwards. The relationship between
America and China was not “normal” before COVID-19. It was in rapid
decline. And that decline has left Americans more vulnerable to the
disease. The lesson of this plague isn’t that America should stop
cooperating with China. It’s that America must rebuild the public-health
cooperation that the Trump administration helped destroy.
U.S.-Chinese collaboration against infectious disease isn’t a
globalist fantasy. It has proved immensely effective in the past. And
one of its greatest champions was George W. Bush.
When SARS hit southern China in late 2002, the Bush administration
played a crucial role in Beijing’s response. Deborah Seligsohn, a
Villanova University political scientist who worked on science and
health issues at the U.S. embassy in Beijing from 2003 to 2007, told me
that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta sent 40
experts—under the auspices of the World Health Organization—to assist
China in battling SARS. “They provided the majority of the international
advice in combatting the disease,” Seligsohn said. The Americans helped
their Chinese colleagues “create records, do contact tracing, do proper
isolation—all the stuff you needed to do.” The effort, she said,
“turned out to be strikingly successful.” SARS was largely contained to
Asia. Only 27 Americans were infected; none died.
The SARS success story produced what the Brown University medical
anthropologist Katherine Mason calls an “explosion of formal
cooperation” between the United States and China in fighting infectious
disease. As Jennifer Huang Bouey of the Rand Corporation has documented,
Bush’s secretary of health and human services visited Beijing in
October 2003 and established a partnership with the Chinese Ministry of
Health. In 2004, the U.S. and China began a collaboration “to build
Chinese capacity in influenza surveillance,” as Bouey put it. The number
of U.S. government employees working on public health in China grew
dramatically, with some CDC officials even given offices inside their
Chinese counterpart (which, in homage to the American agency, is also
called the CDC).
These efforts saved American as well as Chinese lives. When a new
virus, H1N1, broke out in 2009, Bouey noted, “American and Chinese
health authorities shared information and technology to facilitate
national monitoring of H1N1’s spread and to develop a vaccine.” When the
H7N9 virus emerged four years later, “the Chinese and American CDCs
collaborated throughout … by sharing epidemiological data and engaging
in joint research.” When Chinese researchers developed a vaccine, they
quickly shared it with their American colleagues, who produced a version
in the United States.
Brazil's President Jair Bolsonaro on Friday cast doubt on Sao Paulo's
death toll from the coronavirus outbreak and accused the state governor
of manipulating the numbers for political ends, without giving evidence
for his claims.To get more news about slogan about coronavirus, you can visit shine news official website.
Bolsonaro's accusations were the latest broadside in an ugly battle
with Brazil's governors, who have chafed at the president's view that
protecting the economy takes priority over social distancing measures to
combat the spread of the highly contagious virus.
Following the advice of public health experts, the vast majority of
the country's 26 governors have banned non-essential commercial
activities and public services to contain the outbreak in their
states."I'm sorry, some people will die, they will die, that's life,"
Bolsonaro said in a television interview on Friday night. "You can't
stop a car factory because of traffic deaths."
Bolsonaro said that in the state of Sao Paulo, Brazil's economic
powerhouse, the death toll seemed "too large." Sao Paulo has the most
cases and deaths so far of coronavirus in Brazil, at 1,223 cases and 68
deaths."We need to look at what is happening there, this cannot be a
numbers game to favor political interests," Bolsonaro said.
Earlier on Friday, Sao Paulo Governor Joao Doria, a former Bolsonaro
ally who many expect to be a rival in the 2022 presidential election,
accused Bolsonaro of promoting "disinformation" by launching a TV ad
campaign criticizing the restrictions, featuring the slogan
"#BrazilCannotStop."
Brazil's justice ministry on Friday barred all
non-resident foreigners from entering the country via its airports. The
travel ban goes into effect on Monday and follows similar measures in
several other South American nations.
Also on Friday, Brazil's central bank called for emergency
bond-buying powers in line with 'quantitative easing' policies in other
countries, while unveiling a 40 billion reais credit line to help
smaller companies with payroll.
Economy Minister Paulo Guedes said the government will offer 45
billion reais to self-employed and informal workers, adding that all the
government's coronavirus-fighting measures will total 700 billion reais
over three months.Confirmed coronavirus cases in the country jumped to
3,417 on Friday from 1,891 on Monday, as related deaths climbed to 92,
according to the Health Ministry.
Bolsonaro's popularity has slipped during the crisis, and many people
across Brazil bang pots and pans in their windows nightly in protest at
his handling of it.In
counterprotests on Friday, Bolsonaro supporters drove honking caravans
through major cities to oppose the lockdowns, sharing social media
videos with the #BrazilCannotStop hashtag.
The TV advertisement, shared on social media by Bolsonaro allies
including his son, Senator Flavio Bolsonaro, was commissioned by the
president's office at a cost of 4.9 million reais ($1 million) without
consulting the Health Ministry, according to two people with knowledge
of the matter.
"For the neighborhood salesmen, for the shop owners in city centers,
for domestic employees, for millions of Brazilians, Brazil cannot stop,"
said the ad, which shows scenes of crowded classrooms and street
markets.
The slogan is similar to #MilanWillNotStop, which became popular in
northern Italy in February. Italy went on to become a global epicenter
of the outbreak, with more deaths than China.
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton took a swipe at President
Donald Trump's nationalist rhetoric as America's position as the global
leader in cases of COVID-19
emerged.To get more news about
slogan about corona virus, you can visit shine news official website.
Clinton took to Twitter to mock Trump's "America First" slogan on
Friday. Clinton has been consistently critical of her former campaign
rival and the tweet was one of several she has recently made denouncing
the president's handling of the pandemic.
"He did promise 'America First,'" Clinton wrote while sharing a New York
Times article about the United Staes surpassing China and Italy to take
top position in the number of COVID-19 cases. The U.S. total exceeded
100,000 cases as of Friday, with nearly 1,600 deaths.
Trump had repeatedly referred to "America First" while espousing a
nationalist policy during his 2016 campaign against Clinton, and he
famously used the term during his January 2017 inaugural address.
"We assembled here today are issuing a new decree to be heard in every
city, in every foreign capital, and in every hall of power," Trump said
at the inauguration. "From this day forward, a new vision will govern
our land. From this moment on, it's going to be America First."
Clinton also blasted Trump Friday for apparently contradicting medical
experts by insisting hospitals don't need tens of thousands of
additional ventilators. Officials in hard-hit areas of the country have
requested the ventilators due what is said to be an increasingly short
supply of the potentially life-saving medical equipment.
"A month ago, Trump said: 'It's going to disappear. One day, it's like a
miracle, it will disappear,'" tweeted Clinton. "Yesterday, he said: 'I
don't believe you need 40,000 or 30,000 ventilators.' What will it take
to get realDonaldTrump to listen to experts instead of his own
hunches?"Trump said "nobody really knows what will happen" with COVID-19
during a White House meeting with African American leaders on February
27, while also claiming that the "incredible job" the administration was
doing would lead to the virus vanishing.
The following day, during a campaign rally in South Carolina, the
president said that criticism of the administration's response to the
virus was the "new hoax" of Democrats determined to hurt his re-election
chances.
Clinton previously accused Trump of "failing to lead and failing
Americans" during the crisis, suggesting that the president had ignored
the warnings U.S. intelligence officials reportedly gave him that a
pandemic was on the way months before the situation began to spiral out
of control.
"The Trump administration was told in January that coronavirus was
likely to become a pandemic," Clinton tweeted last week. "They refused
to act for fear of spooking the markets, losing weeks of time to prepare
that we won't get back."
