| Boris Johnson is in the ICU Posted: 06 Apr 2020 05:13 PM PDT QuickTake Tonight | Greetings, QuickTake readers! In this edition: Bronx Zoo tiger sickened with coronavirus, a harsher hurricane season looms, and how Tesla engineers are building ventilators with Model 3 parts. Boris Johnson moved to ICU British Prime Minister Boris Johnson was moved to the intensive care unit at a London hospital on Monday after his "persistent coronavirus symptoms worsened." A day earlier, he was admitted to St Thomas' Hospital with a fever and cough for "routine tests," 10 days after he tested positive for Covid-19. Downing Street insisted Johnson would remain in charge while in the hospital, but Foreign Secretary Dominic Rabb was tapped to stand in and said he'd "continue the government's plans to defeat coronavirus." A No. 10 statement said Johnson was conscious and receiving oxygen but not on a ventilator and "in good spirits." More: - Johnson's fiancée Carrie Symonds, who is pregnant, tweeted she was recovering from "the main symptoms" after spending "the past week in bed," saying she felt "stronger" and "on the mend."
- Virus deaths in the U.K. declined for a second-straight day, with 439 new fatalities and 3,802 cases reported Monday.
$ignificant figures 10,000. The U.S. death toll from Covid-19 surpassed that mark, although public health and government officials agree the total is much higher, even as signs emerged that fatalities may soon plateau in some areas. 54. Alibaba's Jack Ma sent a second aid package to every country in Africa that includes 500 ventilators, 2,000 thermometers, 200,000 suits and face shields, 500,000 gloves, and 1 million swabs and extraction kits. 34%. The solar panel market could decline by that much this year, analysts said, as many homeowners postpone or cancel installations while in self-isolation. Highly quotable "Horrifying global surge." Cases of domestic violence are on the rise, with twice as many women seeking help amid widespread lockdowns, the UN said, urging countries to address it in their Covid-19 response plans. "Wonderful, warm conversation." Trump said he had a "really good" phone call with likely Democratic challenger Joe Biden, who shared "several suggestions for actions the administration can take now." "Developed a dry cough." Nadia, a 4-year-old Malayan tiger at the Bronx Zoo, tested positive for coronavirus, the first-known animal to do so in the U.S., likely contracting the virus from an asymptomatic zookeeper. This is not normal Landfall alert. Warmer oceans may cause a harsher-than-normal 2020 hurricane season, with 16 tropical storms forecast to spin out of the Atlantic from June 1-Nov. 30, roiling anti-virus efforts in U.S. coastal areas. The future is now Converting EVs. Tesla engineers are reconfiguring Model 3 auto parts to build a ventilator prototype that includes a touch screen and control system to aid health-care workers without taking away from their supply. What's good Come together. After raising $35 million for the Covid-19 fight, Lady Gaga is teaming up with the WHO and Global Citizen to put on the "One World: Together At Home" benefit on April 18 to support health workers.

| BREAKING NEWS: Supreme Court ruling narrows absentee voting in chaotic Wisconsin election Posted: 06 Apr 2020 04:53 PM PDT Voters in Wisconsin who have yet to cast a ballot in the state's election will have to vote in person or mail their absentee ballot by Tuesday following a pair of court rulings favoring Republicans. Just hours after the state Supreme Court ruled Democratic Gov. Tony Evers exceeded his authority in trying to postpone Tuesday's elections out of public health concerns, the U.S. Supreme Court amended a lower federal court ruling that allowed absentee ballots to be received by next Monday in order to count, clarifying that they need to be postmarked by Tuesday or dropped off in person by 8 p.m. Central Time, when the polls close. The U.S. Supreme Court decision broke sharply along ideological lines, with the five Republican appointees ruling to limit absentee voting and the four Democratic appointees dissenting.

Tony Evers' late executive order postponing in-person voting in the state, meaning the state's presidential primary and hundreds of local elections will proceed on Tuesday. Evers' executive order, which the GOP-controlled state legislature challenged in court, sought to postpone the election due to coronavirus.

| American deaths reach 10,000 Posted: 06 Apr 2020 03:02 PM PDT Evening Briefing | The U.S. government lost almost two months as the coronavirus spread across the nation, thanks in part to unheeded intelligence, regulatory red tape, defective tests (hospitals say functional tests are still hard to come by) and a president who repeatedly downplayed the threat. Now a similar missed opportunity may be brewing with the implementation of the $2 trillion bipartisan bailout. As the number of U.S. Covid-19 cases reach 360,000, the most of any nation, and deaths surpass 10,000, the economic rescue plan is off to a rocky start. Small businesses are struggling to apply for help and lenders are having trouble with the federal loan portal. Meanwhile, Republicans and Democrats are back to political infighting, this time over what a new rescue bill should look like, or whether there should be one at all. One Wall Street friend of Donald Trump says he's given up on the bailout. —David E. Rovella Bloomberg is mapping the pandemic globally and across America. For the latest news, sign up for our Covid-19 podcast and daily newsletter. Here are today's top stories In the U.K., Prime Minister Boris Johnson is under intensive care due to coronavirus infection. In the U.S., stocks rose as some countries reported an easing of death tolls, but hospitals in New York City are buckling and medical professionals are dying because of a continued lack of protective gear. The city is also running out of drugs and ventilators to keep patients alive. But the virus is also stalking the rest of America, state by state. In Japan, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe finally moved to declare an emergency, though only in seven prefectures, while announcing a record economic package. India has banned exports of a malaria drug touted by Trump as a treatment despite a lack of conclusive evidence that it even helps. And Ferdinando Giugliano writes in Bloomberg Opinion that Spain's terrible death toll could have been avoided as Madrid considers universal basic income to tide citizens over. Here is the latest on the pandemic.
Amid the dreadful drumbeat of virus news, Trump on Friday fired the inspector general who triggered his impeachment, the latest termination of individuals who played a role in the Congressional investigation of abuse of power tied to Ukraine. Democrats condemned the move and the timing, given the national emergency. Trump also appointed a White House lawyer to oversee the massive bailout package as Democrats express deep concern about where those billions of dollars will go, and whether there will be transparency given Trump's initial moves to block oversight. Former Vice President Joe Biden says he remains willing to give Trump advice on how to handle the pandemic. Biden, the Democratic frontrunner, has also discussed the process for choosing a running mate with rival Senator Bernie Sanders, and suggested the party hold a virtual convention this summer. Prices for key global food staples are starting to soar in some parts of the world. Rice and wheat, which account for about one-third of the globe's calories, have been making rapid climbs in spot and futures markets. Former Fed Chair Janet Yellen says she is hoping for a "V" shaped recovery when it comes to the pandemic-smashed economy, but she is nevertheless bracing for the worst. Gasping for air, delusional and alone—Bloomberg News editor Paula Dwyer tells the story of how she survived the coronavirus. What's Joe Weisenthal thinking about? The Bloomberg news director says the problem with the U.S. dollar is that its fundamentals are too strong. As fund manager Eric Lonergan has written, a currency is kind of like a social network. What makes it good is that it can be extensively used. Facebook might be a vector of fake news, but if you want to share photos with a wide network of friends, it's basically the only game in town. And so it is with the dollar. It's stable, liquid and widely accepted. Mark Carney has said the dollar is too good: Its position hasn't changed even as the U.S. shrinks as a share of global GDP. When the Fed wants to tighten monetary policy, it can cause real problems for the rest of the world. Right now, everyone is desperate for the dollar because their debt is denominated in it and their revenue has fallen off a cliff. But only the Fed can create the currency out of thin air. As such, it seems possible, Joe says, that the pandemic could mark the very early beginning of the end of the U.S. dollar's singular global role. What you'll need to know tomorrow What you'll want to read tonight in Bloomberg Green Multibillion-dollar asset manager Harris Associates has touted its ESG bonafides. But it has a deputy chairman and chief investment officer, David Herro, who has publicly questioned global warming while raising or donating at least $740,000 to groups that lobby against climate regulations. One of Harris's clients, a major U.K. pension fund, was not amused. Now, Harris has agreed to a series of proposals to increase transparency and invest client money in a climate conscious fashion.

| Our post-pandemic future is already taking shape Posted: 06 Apr 2020 02:17 PM PDT Bloomberg Opinion Today Follow Us  | | This is Bloomberg Opinion Today, a hazy vision of Bloomberg Opinion's opinions. Sign up here. Today's Agenda Or maybe May. Photographer: APU GOMES/AFP/Getty Images The New Normal Especially pungent among Covid-19's bouquet of anxieties — the disease itself, the endless quarantine, the difficulty of getting a box of gosh-darn Cheerios without suiting up for a spacewalk — is the growing sense nothing will ever be the same again. Barring a miracle cure tomorrow, history suggests this fear, unlike that whole ridiculous 5G thing, has basis in reality. A study of data going all the way back to the Black Death shows pandemics alter economies for decades, writes John Authers, boosting the power of labor, lowering the return on capital, and leading to slower growth and lower interest rates. On a micro level, Chris Bryant cut his own hair, decreed the results not terrible, reminded me of this Pavement song, and learned a lesson: This virus is teaching consumers to do things for themselves and spend cautiously. The longer this drags on, the more entrenched these behaviors will be, defying hopes we'll return to normal. People are already questioning the value of pricey rewards credit cards such as the Chase Sapphire Reserve, writes Brian Chappatta. You can't earn or spend triple points in your living room. Any lingering reluctance to eat in restaurants or fly in planes will be bad news for these cash cows for banks. College students suddenly unable to stroll about the campus, as in this Vampire Weekend song, will start questioning the exorbitant costs of a higher education that increasingly consists of watching professors on Zoom, writes Stephen Mihm. Colleges were already struggling with rising costs and falling enrollment. This could change them forever, too. Investment banks are now offering virtual internships, which Matt Levine writes defeats the whole purpose of internships at investment banks, which is to stew people in the culture until they become investment bankers. Not all of the changes have to be destructive, though. This pandemic is opening our eyes to how poorly treated the elderly are, and how little money is spent on their care, writes Lionel Laurent. Hopefully we'll value them more in the years to come. And the rush to get care to patients and relief to the economy is slashing through bureaucratic "sludge," Cass Sunstein writes, in a way that will hopefully be lasting. Even the Black Death (eventually, arguably) led to the Renaissance. The Coronavirus Crisis Is One of Leadership If the fight against Covid-19 is a world war, then local leaders are its field officers, writes Michael Bloomberg, founder and majority owner of Bloomberg LP. They know best how to fight the enemy on the ground, and many have demonstrated better leadership than President Donald Trump and Washington lawmakers. Although Trump has belatedly realized the seriousness of the pandemic, his administration's response continues to be poorly managed, writes Jonathan Bernstein. The trouble starts with the president, who seems mainly to care about winning the day's spin war. Even on the economy, Trump is failing to lead. None of the relief measures passed so far were his idea, and he's not pushing Republicans to do a fourth measure, Jonathan Bernstein writes in a second column. His only contribution is to call for infrastructure spending, which does nothing for the economy now. Of course, leadership is a global problem. Spain's outbreak may be worse than Italy's because its government was slow to act, writes Ferdinando Giugliano. And it still suffers from political disunity. The U.K.'s handling of the crisis has also been shaky, writes Therese Raphael. Boris Johnson's illness, which grew more serious today, sending him to the ICU, will not help. The pandemic response of Taiwan, in contrast, has been impeccable, writes Tim Culpan. The World Health Organization has ignored it for fear of upsetting China. But the rest of the world has taken notice and will hopefully learn leadership lessons for the next viral crisis. The War at Home We're all front-line soldiers in this war, one way or another. Sometimes our marching orders are confusing. Staying at home, washing our hands and not touching our faces are the easy parts. Some of us still have to go out in public — for work, for those gosh-darn Cheerios, or just to get some fresh air. At one point we were told not to wear masks when going out. Now we're told they're necessary. Andreas Kluth, who went facially naked though the SARS outbreak in Hong Kong, is coming around to the need for masks this time. At the very least, they signal "we're in this together," he writes. Just not too together: Health officials have said people should get outside to exercise, but the safety of doing so disappears when everybody's doing it at once, writes Sarah Green Carmichael. Making matters worse, Hollywood has stopped making new content, which is particularly bad news for those of us trapped at home, writes Tara Lachapelle. And all those new streaming services launching this year suddenly face an even more challenging struggle for dominance. How long we'll have to endure this hinges on how quickly we can get effective virus treatments and antibody tests, writes Peter Orszag. Until then, we might have to get used to watching reruns and running marathons on our balconies. Anti-Depressants The Fed has been one of the most assertive leaders in this war, quelling a market panic and holding off a credit crisis. This makes it somewhat less likely we'll fall into a depression, which Tim Duy writes is a recession with unusual depth, duration and deflation. We'll have the depth, unfortunately. Policy makers are taking care of the deflation part for now. The duration will depend on how quickly we can control the virus. The Fed has been so effective, in fact, that investors have resumed the old pre-coronavirus habit of buying every market dip. But Mohamed El-Erian warns the Fed can't rescue everybody; those lower on the food chain in terms of capital structure or credit quality may find they're on their own. But Noah Smith wants the Fed to bail out junk borrowers. Sure, sure, moral hazard and all that, but the last thing we need is a wave of corporate bankruptcies. Telltale Charts Airlines are sitting on billions in customer money, and paying it back all at once would ruin them, writes Chris Bryant. The collapse in America's fracking activity is worse than it was in 2015, writes Liam Denning.

| BREAKING NEWS: Boris Johnson moved to intensive care with Covid-19 Posted: 06 Apr 2020 12:40 PM PDT LONDON — Boris Johnson was moved to intensive care in hospital on Monday evening, 24 hours after being admitted with Covid-19.

Tony Evers issued a last-minute order halting in-person voting on Tuesday amid coronavirus concerns, calling for suspending the statewide and local elections until June 9. "The virus directs us as to what our decision-making is, not human beings, and clearly I am following the science, as I always have," Evers told POLITICO in an interview Monday. Evers said he heard from constituents relaying fear for their safety and their kids' safety, as he tracked updates about the number of deaths and rate of infections in Wisconsin. "Given that, I felt that the governor is the one who has to step up and stand for those people that aren't having their voices heard."

| À nos lecteurs Posted: 06 Apr 2020 10:56 AM PDT Dans la situation actuelle, « Le Monde diplomatique » affronte plusieurs difficultés simultanées. Bien que le gouvernement autorise l'ouverture des kiosques et maisons de la presse, de très nombreux marchands de journaux ont baissé leur rideau, les uns dans les gares et les aéroports (presque tous), les autres dans les rues des grandes villes comme des villages. Abonnez-vous ! Dans la situation actuelle, Le Monde diplomatique affronte plusieurs difficultés simultanées. Bien que le gouvernement autorise l'ouverture des kiosques et maisons de la presse, de très nombreux marchands de journaux ont baissé leur rideau, les uns dans les gares et les aéroports (presque tous), les autres dans les rues des grandes villes comme des villages. Des milliers de points de vente ont ainsi fermé depuis le 16 mars dernier. Pour nos acheteurs au numéro, Le Monde diplomatique sera plus difficile à trouver dans les semaines, voire dans les mois qui viennent. Par ailleurs, de très nombreux abonnés vivant en dehors d'Europe ne reçoivent plus le mensuel en raison de l'interruption du courrier à destination de l'étranger. À ce problème d'ordre sanitaire et logistique s'en ajoute un autre, financier. Presstalis, la coopérative qui assure la distribution en France des quotidiens et de nombreux périodiques, c'est-à-dire leur acheminement des imprimeries vers les marchands de journaux, se trouve au bord du dépôt de bilan. Lourdement endetté, Presstalis ne peut plus payer les éditeurs intégralement et dans les délais habituels. Ce qui signifie que Le Monde diplomatique n'a reçu qu'une partie des recettes des numéros vendus depuis février. La perte est sévère, et elle risque de s'alourdir dans les mois qui viennent. Soucieux d'encourager l'activité des travailleurs de l'imprimerie et de la distribution, nous avons régulièrement recommandé à nos lecteurs de soutenir les marchands de journaux, derniers maillons d'une chaîne indispensable, et malgré cela victimes de rémunérations toujours plus incertaines, en raison de la baisse continue de la diffusion de la presse. Nos bons résultats nous préservent du pire pendant quelques mois. Mais, en ces temps suspendus, notre recommandation se modifie : s'abonner devient le meilleur moyen de recevoir votre mensuel dans les semaines et les mois qui viennent. C'est aussi la meilleure manière de préserver la diffusion de nos idées et de garantir notre pérennité. Vous êtes déjà abonné(e) ? Si cela n'est pas déjà fait, vous pouvez activer votre compte en ligne pour découvrir la version numérique du journal. Ce numéro d'avril a été réalisé dans des conditions déterminées par les mesures de confinement. C'est-à-dire en télétravail. Nos locaux se sont vidés, nos discussions, espacées. Sur le plateau du Monde diplomatique, fourmilière d'ordinaire vibrionnante où se pressait toute une équipe et où s'élaborait chaque numéro, règne dorénavant l'atmosphère d'un cloître électronique : des ordinateurs contrôlés à distance s'agitent en silence. Et le travail d'édition et de fabrication se fait presque exclusivement sur écran, là où nous aimions ajouter le contact du papier, la présence de ratures et d'annotations manuscrites. Dans ces circonstances exceptionnelles, les procédures de correction ont pu, ici ou là, déroger à leur rigueur habituelle. Nous vous prions de nous en excuser. © Le Monde diplomatique avril 2020  |
| Coronavirus Ireland Latest Updates: Number of clusters in private and public nursing homes rises to 71 Posted: 06 Apr 2020 08:34 AM PDT Welcome to the evening edition of the Daily Digest, After the biggest month of grocery sales ever recorded, there's no doubt our consumer spending habits changed utterly last month. Although technically into the Easter holidays now, there's no let-up on the coronavirus battle, with increased testing and the opening of virus hubs. Here's just some of today's best Covid-19 coverage you can trust from Independent.ie, Ireland and across the world. Fionnán Sheahan, Ireland Editor Shop 'til you stock Whether it's panic buying, stockpiling or just eating from home, grocery spending went up by over a quarter last month, hitting new records and eclipsing even the annual Christmas splurge. Where to next When it comes to explaining the science behind the coronavirus, there are few better than Luke O'Neill, professor of biochemistry at Trinity College Dublin. He explains some of the anomalies in the disease infection pattern and where to next. Booster feats One way of fighting coronavirus is to boost your immune system. Stay ahead of the bugs with the most nutritious lockdown foods. Dietician Orla Walsh focuses on the areas of nutrition to give yourself a boost. (Premium) Johnson's misinformation The Russians are claiming he's on a ventilator as Boris Johnson's condition is worse than admitted. But No 10 says it's misinformation and the British Prime Minister is in good spirits as he recovers. Debenhams deadline With 142 stores closed due to the coronavirus lockdown, Debenhams is on the brink of administration - again. The process in the UK won't directly affect Debenhams Ireland, with its 11 stores and 1,500 staff. The move comes at a time when retailers are thrown into crisis. European Disunion As states retrench within their own borders to fight the coronavirus, the EU is not having a good crisis. John Downing explains how the union's next steps are vital to its future. (Premium) Siege mentality Tom Gunn survived the Siege of Jadotville and now he's lived to fight another day after fending off the coronavirus. Following his recovery, the 82-year-old shares his survival instincts with Catherine Fegan. (Premium) Combatting clusters Clusters of coronavirus in nursing homes and long-term care facilities are a huge concern. Today, 57 clusters have been reported in nursing homes across the country. The New England Journal of Medicine assesses what actions can be taken to fight the virus as it strikes the most vulnerable of patients. Kenny vs Keane Left out of the new-look Ireland management setup under Stephen Kenny, the only sign of discontent from Robbie Keane has been the utterances of his wife Claudine. It all tees up a tense shootout with the FAI, as Aidan Fitzmaurice reports. Return of Councillor Scrubs Leo Varadkar is returning as a doctor to help with the frontline coronavirus crisis. It's not the first time he's mixed politics and medicine. He was nicknamed Councillor Scrubs after turning up for a council meeting in medical garb. All of which is an excuse to again watch this clip from TV show 'Scrubs' about the spread of infection in a hospital. Corona and the whale Apropos of nothing, a council has decided there are lessons to be learned in the current crisis from the salutary tale of the whale and the dynamite.

| Stay away from all tigers, but especially this one Posted: 06 Apr 2020 07:20 AM PDT Charts show how coronavirus is hitting your city, influencers peddle wild conspiracy theories, and a masterpiece hits streaming  THE BIG STORY
Make sure you stay six feet away from this tiger A tiger at the Bronx Zoo in New York City has tested positive for the coronavirus, the zoo's operator said this weekend. After Nadia, a 4-year old Malayan tiger, developed a dry cough and loss of appetite, "we tested the cat out of an abundance of caution and will ensure any knowledge we gain about COVID-19 will contribute to the world's continuing understanding of this novel coronavirus," the Wildlife Conservation Society said. It's still not clear exactly how the tiger was infected; the zoo assumes it was from one of its staffers. The US Department of Agriculture said it may be the first known case of a human spreading the virus to an animal, but there's still much to discover about exactly how the virus can be transmitted between humans and animals. But in the meantime, the USDA is advising sick people to avoid touching their pets unless it's absolutely necessary, and to wash your hands before and after any contact. And obviously stay away from that tiger, and really, any tigers. STAYING ON TOP OF THIS How is the coronavirus affecting your city? Our live tracking pages have been showing constantly updated data on how the coronavirus is spreading in the US and globally. But now we have a new tracking page that breaks down the numbers by cities and major metropolitan areas across the country. Here, for example, you can see the total number of deaths and the death rate in the hardest hit metro areas in the country: Here are the places that have been hardest hit relative to their population size: And here's how the toll is growing in a group of the biggest and hardest hit cities SNAPSHOTS Lawmakers are pushing back after the EPA announced it would relax enforcement of environmental regulations during the coronavirus outbreak. "This pandemic isn't an excuse for polluters to ignore the law," Sen. Elizabeth Warren told BuzzFeed News. Queen Elizabeth gave a rare special address on Sunday, urging the public to show "self-discipline and resolve" in facing the coronavirus. It was only the fifth such speech in her 68 years on the throne. Influencers are, regrettably, at it again. A number of well known lifestyle influencers have begun sharing ridiculous conspiracy theories on Instagram. President Trump has fired Michael Atkinson, the intelligence community inspector general. Atkinson alerted lawmakers to the whistleblower complaint that led to his impeachment; his firing was announced late on Friday night.

PRAYER AND PANDEMIC Religion and the outbreak America's churches, temples, synagogues and mosques have (mostly) closed their doors during the coronavirus crisis, but their attendees are still looking to practice their faith – often more so during a time of crisis. So religious communities, like everyone else, are going online. "This distanced worship has allowed clergy to maintain a semblance of community during a despairing and isolated time," reports Joe Bernstein. "But distance has also left religious leaders with an impossible circle to square. So many aspects of religious practice and community depend on physical presence, and technology can't replace all of them."

What I've Learned About The Coronavirus From My Family In Wuhan
"To me, Wuhan is the heart of my family, of my roots, and of a fascinating culture," writes Nicole Tong, a senior at Naperville North High School in Illinois.
"But to the rest of the world, Wuhan is now the cradle of the coronavirus, the city with the exotic animal marketplace that supposedly infected humans with a deadly virus. Never again will I be able to talk about my parents' hometown without the gears turning in people's minds as they wonder: Isn't that...? Never again will I express the passionate ferocity I felt on "China Day" in third grade, racing to the map at the front of the room and stabbing my finger into the heart of the country for my classmates to see."
We'll get through this, Tong reminds us, and "as a resident of not only a nation, but a world, I hope we will come out of this stronger, more united. Being aware that we are living history is an otherworldly feeling. We will learn to appreciate the significant things and the small, hugging each other close. We will share stories with those in China, Italy, England, Iran, and many more about our universal yet unique experiences in isolation."
A MOVIE FOR LOCKDOWN
Here's one to watch
"Céline Sciamma's Portrait of a Lady on Fire is eerily suited to a viewing in lockdown," writes Shannon Keating. The lesbian love story, set in France in the 18th century, only hit US cinemas a few months ago, but it has now been released early on streaming – and that's good news for all of us, because it's a masterpiece, albeit one with a tough ending.
"Every love story, after all, ends in tragedy," Keating writes. "It's just a matter of when. You need only look to the surprising, gorgeous romance tucked into HBO's Watchmen to learn that lesson. There are no guarantees. No happy endings. There's only the moments we have right in front of us — and the best and the worst of our memories. It feels like a particularly poignant, if heartbreaking, takeaway for our current moment, when any future at all seems terribly uncertain. But hopefully that just makes our love, however fleeting, however finite, all the sweeter. Feel the sweetness of fleeting love today, and stay away from tigers, Tom BuzzFeed, Inc. 111 E. 18th St. New York, NY 10003

| كوفيد- ١٩: نداء استغاثة عاجل من شعب الماساي Posted: 06 Apr 2020 03:30 AM PDT أصدقائي الأعزاء، تلقيت للتو نداء استغاثة عاجل من ناشولاي، المحمية الطبيعية التي يديرها شعب الماساي في كينيا التي ساهم مجتمع آفاز في إنشائها وحازت على جائزة عالمية في وقت سابق. تأثير وباء كورونا كان مدمراً على المحمية وعلى شعب الماساي، الذي كان وراء هذا المشروع المذهل، حيث بدأ يعاني من الجوع والفقر والعوز. تعتمد المحمية على السياحة التي انهارت بشكل كامل نتيجة تفشي وباء كورونا. ونتيجة لذلك خسر عدد ضخم من أبناء مجتمع الماساي وظائفهم. هم الآن بلا مال أو طعام أو عناية طبية. وبعد الاستغناء عن الحراس وارتفاع مستوى الفقر، ستتمكن عصابات الصيد غير القانوني قريباً من الانقضاض على هذه المحمية الطبيعية المدهشة. تحتاج ناشولاي إلى معجزة لتنجو من هذه الأزمة، ويمكن لتبرعاتنا أن تكون هذه المعجزة.
وضع شيوخ الماساي خطة طوارئ جريئة لتأمين الغذاء للآلاف من أبناء شعبهم وبناء منشآت طبية وحماية الحياة البرية في نفس الوقت. لكنهم بحاجة إلى جمع التمويل اللازم للشروع في تنفيذها -- وهنا يحين دورنا أنا أعلم أن معظمنا يواجة تحديات ومشكلات حقيقية خلال هذه الأزمة. ولكن إن تبرع عدد كافي منّا بمبالغ بسيطة فسوف نتمكن من إنقاذ ناشولاي. وسوف تستخدم جميع التبرعات الزائدة لمساعدة مجتمعات أخرى وتمكين حملاتنا من أجل استجابة أسرع وأكثر فعالية لمواجهة هذا الوباء. لا يمكن لأي منظمة أخرى أن تجمع التبرعات بالسرعة التي نفعلها نحن، من أجل تلبية نداء الاستغاثة هذا، تبرعوا الآن : قبل أربع سنوات، جمع مجتمعنا المال اللازم من أجل تنفيذ هذه الرؤية الجميلة المتمثلة بمحمية ناشولاي، والتي حولت هذه الممر البيئي التاريخي إلى أول محمية طبيعية تدار من قبل شعب الماساي الذي يقطن هذه المنطقة ويعيش بتناغم مع الحياة البرية حوله. لكن تفشي وباء كورونا قد يؤدي إلى تدمير هذه المحمية بالكامل. إلا أن الماساي تعاملوا مع هذه الأزمة بنفس مستوى الحكمة الذي أدى إلى إنشاء محمية ناشولاي، حيث وضعوا خطة مذهلة من شأنها إنقاذ حياة الآلاف من شعب الماساي وتعزيز المحمية وتمكينها أكثر من قبل. إن تبرع عدد كاف منّآ الآ فسوف نتمكن من فعل ما يلي: - تسليم المواد الغذائية بشكل عاجل وتوسيع رقعة الأراضي الزراعية من أجل تأمين الطعام.
- إنشاء مستوصفات ومنشآت للعزل الصحي، وتوفير مستلزمات الوقاية والعناية الصحية وجعلها متاحة للجميع.
- إطلاق حملة توعية ضخمة تتضمن إعلانات على الراديو ومنشورات باللغة واللهجات المحلية.
- تمويل الحراس وضمان عودتهم جميعاً إلى العمل من أجل حماية الحياة البرية من عصابات الصيادين خلال العام القادم.
- إنشاء صندوق للطورائ من أجل دعم باقي المجتمعات الأكثر عوزاً حول العالم.
- تمكين الحملات المطالبة بإلغاء ديون الدول الفقيرة وبوقف إطلاق النار في جميع أنحاء العالم وغيرها من الإجراءات اللازمة لمساعدة شعوب العالم الأكثر فقراً.

| When a leader falls ill Posted: 06 Apr 2020 03:20 AM PDT Balance of Power | | From  | | | | | Britain is facing a new leadership crisis at its most vulnerable moment in decades. With the worst of the coronavirus outbreak expected to hit the country in the next 7-10 days, Prime Minister Boris Johnson has been hospitalized for what Downing Street has characterized as precautionary tests. Since testing positive for the virus on March 26, the 55-year-old Johnson has recorded a succession of "selfie" videos from his apartment, designed to prove he's still in charge. But the shaky footage showed a visibly unwell leader who sounded short of breath and who still can't shake off the symptoms, including a fever. Now Johnson is handing over key duties to his untested deputy, Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab, who will chair the daily crisis meetings. This has its own risks. Raab, along with other senior ministers including Health Secretary Matt Hancock and Cabinet Office Minister Michael Gove, stood against Johnson for the Conservative Party leadership last year. Behind the scenes, officials squabble over what to do next as the U.K.'s strategy comes under pressure. Critics say Johnson, like U.S. President Donald Trump, didn't move quickly enough and prevaricated over how intense a lockdown should be, a gamble that risks worsening the virus's impact. Queen Elizabeth II stepped in last night with a rare televised address to the nation, appealing for the unity and resolve it showed during World War II. Yet what the country needs now is a leader with a strong enough grip on the government machine to deal with the emergency. — Tim Ross | | | Johnson remotely chairs a Covid-19 response meeting in London on March 28. | | Photographer: Andrew Parsons/10 Downing Street | | | Global Headlines | | Worst week | The U.S. Surgeon General said this week would be the "hardest and the saddest" for Americans, likening it to the aftermath of the Pearl Harbor and 9/11 attacks. While Trump said there are signs the U.S. outbreak is beginning to stabilize, the governor of the country's epicenter, New York, warned a day-to-day reduction in deaths there could be "just a blip." -
Europe's four worst-hit countries reported a slower pace of coronavirus deaths. -
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe proposed an emergency declaration for Tokyo and Osaka after cases in the capital jumped over the weekend to surpass 1,000. -
Click here to read how negotiations over the next round of U.S. stimulus are already devolving into partisan bickering and here for details on how to access aid already in the pipeline. Masks fight | The race to secure masks, ventilators, gloves and medicines is seeing disputes break out between countries. It shows how vulnerable the trade in medical supplies (a $597 billion industry) is to unilateral action by individual nations. As Alan Crawford writes, it's also happening in a climate of distrust as Trump pushes his America First agenda, which has seen him criticize global institutions as well as longstanding U.S. allies like Germany and France.
Wuhan's opening | The initial epicenter of the coronavirus pandemic will finally begin to emerge this week from the world's first widespread lockdown. Our reporters on the ground explain how Wuhan's tentative recovery — after suffering more than half of China's confirmed cases and deaths — could provide one of the first glimpses at how a major metropolis comes back from a drastic Covid-19 shutdown.

Oil wrangling | Saudi Arabia, Russia and other oil producers are racing to negotiate a deal to stem the recent price crash. While diplomats say some progress has been made they face big obstacles: A meeting of producers from OPEC+ and beyond has been delayed until Thursday and Trump has shown little willingness for the U.S. to join output cuts. - Oil futures erased an initial 11% loss as Trump said he didn't think he'd need to use tariffs to get Saudi Arabia and Russia to reach a deal.
Pandemic power | Viktor Orban was Hungary's firebrand champion of democracy when the Iron Curtain fell in 1989, the liberal student leader who told the Russians to go home. But as Zoltan Simon, Ian Wishart and Arne Delfs report, as prime minister three decades later he just called into question whether his country is a democracy at all.
What to Watch This Week - Euro-area finance ministry officials speak today on options for mitigating the economic hit from the pandemic. They'll be followed by finance ministers tomorrow. It's possible leaders will speak later this week to sign off on a plan.
- Republicans are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to block the extension of absentee voting in tomorrow's presidential primary in Wisconsin, where the Democratic governor issued a stay-at-home order because of the virus.
- The EU plans to impose tariffs on lighters and plastic fittings from the U.S. in retaliation over American duties on imported steel and aluminum.
- Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador pledged to boost public works projects and low-interest loans to soften the outbreak blow but ruled out more significant stimulus, sending the peso tumbling.
- Israeli lawmaker Benny Gantz told President Reuven Rivlin he may need to seek an extension beyond April 13 as he tries to build a coalition government with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud and aligned parties.

And finally ... From her home window, Belinda Constant, mayor of Gretna, Louisiana, watches the mighty Mississippi flow by. Beyond it are the sparkling lights of New Orleans. She views both warily these days. The "Big Easy" is a coronavirus hot spot, while the Mississippi has risen more than a foot in the past week, triggering emergency flood measures. And the rains keep coming. The Mississippi overflows onto a New Orleans street last July. With the coronavirus already stretching supplies and budgets, local leaders worry that a fresh flood could overwhelm them. Photographer: SOPA Images/LightRocket via Getty Images | | | | |   |
