AP: Public fitness experts in the United States have expressed fear of President Donald Trump’s largely unsatisfied and socially undated Republican conference on the White House lawn, saying that some of his 1,500 visitors would have possibly inadvertently brought and spread the coronavirus to others.
There were almost other people inflamed with Covid-19 who didn’t know it yet, said Dr. Leana Wen, an emergency doctor and a professor of public fitness at George Washington University.
“I’m involved in those other people getting infected with each other and they’re actually going home,” said Wen, who was in the past Baltimores Health Commissioner.
Trump delivered his speech by accepting the GOP presidential nomination at Thursday night’s event, which continued to violate coronavirus protection guidelines.
Few spectators wore masks, while virtually all major public health professionals, adding the administration, say facial blankets play a role in slowing the virus’s transmission.
The chairs were spaced a few inches aside instead of 6 feet, leaving little room for participants to practice social distance.
In Germany, the number of cases shown increased from 785 to 241,771, according to the knowledge of the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) on Sunday.
The number of reported deaths increased from six to 9,295.
Hello everyone, Helen Davidson is here to give you the next few hours of updates.
New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern thanked Auckland residents who came out of isolation after Sunday for their commitment to suppress the most recent coronavirus outbreak.
Two new Covid-19 instances were reported on Sunday, either on the network and connected to the last cluster in Auckland. Ardern thanked the citizens of New Zealand’s largest city for meeting strict blocking requirements.
“Our formula is like our workers,” he said. “And our workers are amazing.”
But Ardern suggested to the Aucklanders that they “continue.” Although closing the elevators on Monday, the mask will be mandatory on public transport and is strongly recommended elsewhere.

I’ll finish the afternoon. My colleague Helen Davidson, who, like me, is worried about the lack of a spectacularly sunny day in Sydney, will now be her partner.
Thank you all for your comments and correspondence. Be all right and take care of the others.
I’ll leave you with a summary of the developments:
Back in Australia and Victoria, the peak southern state affected by Covid-19:
Victoria’s Prime Minister Daniel Andrews said the state could simply open up to the number of coronavirus cases at its current level.
The state recorded 114 new cases of coronavirus and 11 more deaths on Sunday, most recently a 70-year-old man, five women and an 80-year-old man and 3 women and a 90-year-old man.
Nine of the deaths are similar to outbreaks in aged care facilities.
The death toll for the state is now 524, while the national figure is 611.
Andrews said 382 deaths were similar to those in the nursing home sector.
New figures come after Saturday’s coronavirus fell below 100 percent for the first time since July 5
Andrews said that while the number of instances “will recover a little,” they have a tendency to decrease.
“We are seeing a decline in the key signs and the strategy is working and it is an honor for both Victorians who have made a great contribution to this,” he said.
Residents of the capital, Melbourne, are subject to a fortnight of strict Level 4 restrictions, adding a curfew from 8 p.m. five a.m.
Regional Victorians are subject to less stringent Stage 3 restrictions during the same period.
Andrews said it’s still too early to plan for a way out of restrictions.
At 100, 94, 114, whatever the number, we just couldn’t open it. Those figures would explode, we would end and an even worse scenario than the last few months.
What we want to do is stay on course. Once we see the numbers pass below, once we are certain, and it will be very soon, we will be able to communicate more definitively about what the weeks and months that are coming months will be.
Andrews said the next set of restrictions would be on “science, knowledge and evidence” and would probably be in place for “several months.”
There will be a strange epidemic and a strange case, however, if you return it to really low levels, you can be sure that you can jump on them, you can involve them and we don’t have to go back to the stops. Let’s go back to the rules that all, ” he added.
“This may be a more localized and remote approach.”
Andrews said he would make announcements Monday about how the government would work with the industry on the procedure to ease the restrictions.
South Korea on Sunday reported its seventeenth day of a three-figure increase in coronavirus infections, as restrictions on on local food in restaurants, pubs and bakeries in Seoul’s densely populated region take effect.
There were 299 new infections Saturday at midnight, the slowest buildup in five days, bringing the national count to 19699 cases of new coronavirus and 323 deaths from COVID-19, korean Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC) said.
On Friday, the country prolonged the social estrangement regulations of Phase 2, the strictest point of the moment, for at least a week and announced stricter regulations on virus spread threats.
Onsite dining at restaurants, pubs and bakeries in the Seoul area is banned between 9pm and 5am, while coffee shops, some of which have been identified as hotspots, are restricted to takeout and delivery until midnight on 6 September.
Churches, nightclubs, indoor sports facilities and maximum schools in it are already closed and the mask is mandatory in public places.
A note about our call on the blog: we had a correspondence related to the use of the term “Reichstag”. The construction of the Reichstag is rightly the call for construction where the German parliament, the Bundestag, is located. Thank you all for your correspondence and questions. We are pleased to have a verbal exchange on topics like this.
As we have reported in the past:
Far-right extremists attempted to provoke a typhoon in the construction of the German parliament on Saturday after a protest against the country’s pandemic restrictions, but were intercepted by police and forcibly evicted.
The incident occurred after a one-day demonstration through tens of thousands of people who opposed wearing masks and other government measures to prevent the spread of coronavirus.
In Australia:
Queensland now has 28 active cases of coronavirus after finding 4 other infections connected to a correctional education academy overnight in the southeastern state. All instances are connected to the Queensland Corrective Services Academy Group in Wacol.
A senior academy coach diagnosed the virus Thursday after the outbreak at the facility for nearby youth.
Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said three of the new cases came here from the same Forest Lake home, as two others tested positive on Friday. The fourth case is believed to be from Staines Memorial College in Redbank Plains and is also in close contact with a known user who has been infected.
This raises the number of active instances to 28, 11 similar to an initial outbreak at the Brisbane Youth Detention Centre, also in Wacol.
Dr Jeannette Young, Queensland’s director of fitness, said Sunday that the fitness government was for contacts from the 3 active instances where they worked or went to school or day care. Gold Coast regions and Darling Downs. Another 10 people were allowed to gather in Brisbane, Ipswich and Logan without a COVID-19 safety plan, following an initial outbreak at a youth detention centre.
This lasted south of the Gold Coast from 8am on Saturday after two Pimpama citizens connected to the cluster were diagnosed with the virus.
The new regulations will also take effect at Darling Downs starting at 8am on Monday, after fitness alerts were issued for The Southern Hotel and Queens’ Park Markets in Toowoomba.
New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern thanked the Auckland residents who left the lockout tonight for their commitment to suppress the Covid-19 outbreak in that country.
Two new Covid-19 instances were reported on the network today and connected to the latest Auckland cluster.
Ardern thanked the citizens of New Zealand’s largest city for meeting strict blocking requirements.
“Our formula is like our workers. And our workers are amazing.”
But Ardern also suggested to the Aucklanders that they “continue.” Masks will be mandatory on public transport and are strongly recommended elsewhere.
“Basically, when you leave your house, we ask for a mask.”
Ardern said it was “very unlikely” that Covid outside the gates of Auckland: “We need it to continue.”
He also warned that if additional outbreaks occur, New Zealand could be forced to increase alert levels.
There are 136 active instances of Covid-19 in New Zealand. Another 10 people are in the hospital, two in resuscitation.
New Zealand has recorded 1,378 cases of Covid-19 since the start of the pandemic.
Ardern helped his Kiwi comrades make masks:
