26 percent increases in the emissions to the intensive care unit. this is the medical center in rotterdam. they've had that experience here. i've had to start transferring patients across the german border. this is a process that took place in earlier high points in the pandemic. so here there is concern because they've just introduced on wednesday, a social distancing once more and a raft of other measures already going through. which basically restricts a number of areas of normal life controversially, because we have seen demonstrations here last week against measure some of the measures. and so that has been tension around many parts. open evidence. and now andrew, the you health agency is saying vaccine boosters should be considered for all adult,

is a major change to the agency's guidance it's effectively a huge and very significant because the, the e, c, d, c, the european center for disease disease prevention and control hands out important guidance to all member states that have in september said that the booster shots, the 3rd a vaccine used wasn't really an urgent measure to be taken. it was really just a measure to be taken with those with low resistance and bose with also frail people who would need extra precautions given. but now that is totally different. it's saying that you states, should we really go for these booster shots and roll them out immediately if it happens already. and it's also saying that, but basically that they've received the information evidence, if you will,

from israel on the united kingdom. the booster shots really are working and it's has to be said, but you have seen some leveling outs in infection. right. so yes, the there, there is also a warning from this b, u, a policy making body on the health matters. that whole measures should be taken across the whole of europe effectively to try to restrict cofi 19 infection rates. we're seeing now in germany approach you got 100000 death now record figures nearly 67000 new cases in warm, 24 hour period in from a 30000 figure. the highest since august are for infection rates. the list is pretty long. the czech republic facing a crisis and the going for the probably going for the, the insistence that there should be mandatory vaccinations and australia where

there is now a full lockdown to really to say how that's going there in the 3rd day of that measure. that's now being seriously looked at right across your andrew. thank you very much for that. andrew simmons live in rochester in our protest, as in the french overseas territory of guadalupe burnt cars instead of barricades on tuesday in a protest against covert 19 measures. anger over restrictions imposed hester's longstanding grievances over poverty. any quality in the region, vaccination waits remain low with less than half a population inoculated against corona virus. president emmanuel michael has said the crisis is explosive, but promises to contain the situation. south korea is reporting record numbers of critically ill covered 19 patients. nearly 80 percent of the population is fully vaccinated in the country. sorry, easing restrictions. this month for history has more the south korean government

east cove at 19 restrictions less than a month ago. but on wednesday, official say they may consider re imposing some rules. the number of new cases and seriously ill patients is rising across the country. daily infections reached a record $4100.00 on tuesday, and nearly 70 percent of beds in intensive care units on. now occupied all units in carnesville, a major factor that has contributed to the increasing number of cases or less has made the hospital bed utilization rate a bit worse, is the increasing number of infections in the elderly senior citizens with the 1st to be na collated earlier this year and health officials say part of the reason infections arising is because they're in unity is waning. the government says it will give them booster shots. what the government is trying to do at this point is to our ext an the deployment of booster shots, especially among the most vulnerable as quickly as possible. there are increasing

testing, especially in congregate resident. so settings, but just uh, nursing homes and our long term care facilities. officials are also conducting tests and trace operations. after more than $200.00 people tested positive for cove at 19, at a church in the city of china. a timid from day one is o timesheet. in the morning the central disaster and safety countermeasure headquarters reported that around 91.4 percent of the confirmed cases from shannon shamiqua, unvaccinated to the increase in infection. so soon after restrictions when lifted will be a blow to many. but although the numbers rising that some relief that at about 35 a day, the number of deaths remains relatively low. florence louis al jazeera new zealand is to allow fully vaccinated international travelers to enter from april next year. is ellen nationals have been stuck in australia and have had 2 jobs. can

also travel home without having to quarantined for mid january and those living in other countries can return home from mid february. we acknowledged that it has been very tough. families have been separated. people have found themselves having to shelter and prices, they did not speak to say for prolonged periods of time. and we are acutely aware of the impact that these restrictions have head on individuals lives and their livelihoods. as i said, standing here many times before, when it comes to curve 19, they're often no easy decisions. and we've often been faced with the task of making the least worst decision. because we know that whatever steeps we've taken there have been consequences in people's lives. they've been evicted, and the border is clearly an example of their venti moorehead on this news hour, including all laughed, shoals is poised to become germany's new chancellor. as parties agree to a new coalition deal. we'll have the latest from berlin. indian st vendors go on

strike, they're demanding the government do more to protect their rights and ins for the lakers were missing their star player as they went. the bron less in new york ah so to germany now where 3 political parties have agreed to form a coalition government following 2 months of talks, olaf shoals is now poised to take over as chancellor, early next month, the social democrats who won the election in september we'll leave the coalition that includes the greens and free democrats. this will be the 1st 3 where coalition government, in nearly 70 years. dominic cane is our correspondent in berlin, joins us now live on the news, our negotiations to form this government have been rather secret. dominic, what do we know about what's in this field? yeah, it's been 9 weeks and counting since the general election in september. and still

we're waiting to have the details of this new government, or this potential new government made clear to us that should come in the next hour or so. what we know is that in the new cabinets that's appears to have been agreed upon. while before ministerial posts for the free democrats center right party, known as the liberals here in germany, 5 positions for the green party, and then 6 cabinet posts for the social democrats plus. of course the chancellor, which it is, it's going to be all shots. the one caveat here is that each party, what we have here today being announced is what the leadership negotiation teams have agreed with each other. each party will have to separately work out whether what they've agreed is acceptable to their members. and that might take some time, but the clear drive from these parties has been, they wanna have a replacement government in place in either the 1st or the 2nd week of december.

now the important thing here is from one side of things from the environmental side of things. the greens appear to have got control of the powerful economy ministry. and they go to make it also the climate change ministry. they're also good to have the environment ministry. so they appear to have got what they wanted from this. but as i say, we need to see exactly what details are going to come out about who gets what post that sort of thing and what difficulties. well the new government have achieving its objectives. well, the 1st objective for all 3 parties indeed for all the politicians in germany is trying to get control on the cove, its situation. that's the thing that stands out. and some political wags have been saying the one ministry that nobody really wanted to have is the health ministry. so difficult is the situation that school to confront the new health minister when they get sworn in next month. but apart from cove,

it well all sorts of potential difficulties because white view is need to remember these 3 parties are not natural allies. the greens and the social democrats have worked with each other in government before. but that was 16 years ago. the free democrats on much more to the center rights of politics. they would much rather be going into government with the kristian democrats of anglo michael. they can't, they haven't been in government themselves for quite a while. so they want to get into government. but there's where their problem starts, because the other thing to say here is okay, this group will control the lower house of parliament. they won't control the upper house of parliament. and so if the kristian democrats, who are now going to be metaphorically licking their wounds in opposition, if they want to make trouble in the other house apartment, they will be able to. so it's not absolutely guarantee that this new governments, if and when it gets sworn in, is going to have it plain sailing,

getting its policies through parliament and can for that dominic cane at live in berlin. human whitewash has accused bella ruth and poland de violating the rights of migraine fin asylum seekers. the watchdog says it's documented abuses on both sides of the border. the report says below russian guards were involved in humane acts towards migraines, on the border. aiming to reach you. polish security forces are also accused of engaging in violent pushback. at least 13 people have died. as a result of hiring conditions. benjamin ward is the deputy director of human rights watch in europe and central asia division. he stays both poland and better. we have obligations to ensure safety, monetary, and access to people stock along their border. the iris is in the frame for criticism here because it has been subjecting migrants and asylum seekers to the most appalling abuse after encouraging them to come on on a false promise,

trapping them in the border area, subjecting to violence, denying them access to food, water and shelter, you know, a small number, maybe in, in a shelter now, but there are many others who are not i'm so that is all that, you know, very, very troubling. but what is all so deeply troubling is that we found that there are clear evidence that poland is or enabling this abuse by pushing people back in some, in some cases repeatedly who are trying to cross into poland, back into the hands of the declaration. officials who are abusing them. and it's also by denying humanitarian organizations access to the border area on the polish side. creating a situation where people are suffering. and in some cases dying because they're not able to get the kind of life saving assistance that they need. and so we feel it's incredibly important that poland responsibility is given more attention, particularly by the european union. the announcement by the european commission of a whole package of measures to address the situation,

all of which were focused on galleries. and in fact, if you were to read that, that package of measures, you would have no idea that poland was there any way of doing anything wrong. and in fact, the doing a lot of things wrong. and, and, you know, actually we ought to expect more from, from a european union member state, we ought to expect more from the european union, which is supposed to be a union of values rather than, you know, as cynical instrumentalists zation of the situation and saying that because this is bella bruce's, you know, orchestrated threat. and we, we only need to focus on that and we don't need to look at our own responsibility for the suffering which is being experience. an explosion at a munitions factory in serbia has came at least 2 people in india, 16 others. and he say rockets were being stored in a way house that was destroyed. jones are being used to search for survivors. in bosnia, thousands of coal miners are striking over government plans to got jobs, as is said,

vending. court has said that some of the biggest market, the starting to look like and the interest rate or vendors, but also shots in the market which paper, real estate and residents. now straight vendors are really important part of the fabric of, in the, in society. they're up to 6000000 in the country. they sell pretty much everything that you can think of. they serve most people, but especially the poorer and society. they say that they are self sufficient that they work for themselves in an economy which doesn't have enough jobs for them. and they are asking to be allowed to work for themselves with the protection guaranteed under the law. now nasa has launch a test flight that could one day save earth scientists. i want to know what it would take to stop a killer asteroid crashing into earth. the dot mission will 1st or bits. ah, the sun on a nearly year long voyage to hit his targets. the target

a small space rock called di morphis. nearly 10000000 kilometers away, the spacecraft will crash. it will crash rather into dime office at 24000 kilometers per hour. if everything goes according to plan, while the impacts will alter the asteroids, all that norbert manley has a d. t. s. 321. the dance mission could one day save the earth. nasa would deliberately chris a spacecraft into an unsuspecting rockery. could i move with the aim to find out what it would take to stop a launch asteroid from one day, crushing into the us and devastating the planet bill. we're gonna bump into a desk and off, i call it kind of stadium sized in all like soccer stadium sized. asteroid that, that what that is in orbit around a body that is about 5 times larger. so that's what,

that's what we're going to de went and measure. ah, really did change of orbit are for that secondary body. it's the 1st time scientists are attempting such an experiment. and this is how they're going to do it, die more of a circles than astroid could, did a mis nasa has waited for it to get close to earth. a mere 11000000 kilometers away . the spacecraft will reach speeds of more than 24000 kilometers per hour and head straight towards it. they're hoping the crash will take both objects out of course, even if ever so slightly. and it will all be streamed by a video back to earth. that will tell us a lot about if you want to deviate completely as small as 3 i told the earth, what type of spacecraft or what speed, what weight, what impact will need to have to deflect an asteroid? sign to say the results of the experiment. all fine, so if an asteroid measuring just a few 100 meters collides with our planet,

it could have devastating consequences. what they're really targeting our asteroids that could be like regional and destroyers like something that could have a huge impact and say, a certain part of the, the planet. so it's really important that we have a means to protect against those scientists hope the small impact will be a huge step forward to protecting a potentially devastating impact on us lore about a manly al jazeera time. now for a check on the wild weather, his rob there these days, the changing climate, we can often say this is a once in a century. event is usually one decade or now once in a year. but what's happening of a new se, in particular, is a long period return event with a stay that way. as a matter, it's been a lot of rain this spring, and this is one example of it, the flooded number. i river nika data. while this induced aswell, eastern side of new south wales in this rate has not stopped the fellers come down
