at the height of the peak that 9000 people were dying a day. so that doesn't really add up to the estimates that have been provided by the c c p. because what we do know about that is that it's not just a spiritual disease and effects all organs in the body and it's linked to all sorts of different ways in which people, me a pass away predominantly true blood clotting. and so again, that's probably a big part of the defining the death as well as people not being able to access hospitals, that there's no bad, no space. people won't be dying in hospitals, will be dying somewhere else. and now we do see that the demographics were in the big cities with the better hospitals, and really just more capacity to give care, has now spread more into rural areas of china, where health care systems are less developed. and also vaccination rates are lower . so again, that devastation that's being caused, it's mushrooming, and although these figures are slowing down,
2:31 am
we do know that the lunar new year is coming around and there's going to be much more travel across the country, which means that we probably are expected. another 2 ways is result of just that travel alone. ah, this is officer and these are the top stories now. russian forces have launched missiles at cities across ukraine, including the capital. keep. these 12 people died and 60 were injured in the city of the pro rockets destroyed to residential buildings. natasha butler has more from the capital key athena, a number of russian attacks in different parts of the country. there are ongoing air raid alert systems also in most of southern ukraine. here in keith though it is a bit more quiet. we certainly though, had
2:32 am
a different picture this morning. we heard, at needy 5 very distinct explosions that we later found out were strikes at key infrastructure in the city. according to local authorities, thousands of tennesseans have rallied in the capital tunis calling for the resignation of present case i aid demonstration, march 12 years since tennyson protest has sparked arb spring uprisings around the region. the white house lawyer says another batch of classified documents have been found that the private residence of us at present, joe biden, which is southern, says the white house will corporate with the special council appointed to investigate. thousands of people have demonstrated in tel aviv against plans by the new is really government to overhaul the judicial system. they say plans by prime minister benjamin netanyahu far right administration could we could least supreme court police so forth with climate protested in western germany. the latest

2:34 am
you just have that in claim that it will seen him. that something is going to transpire. and it didn't. told him to police officers. every lawyer i feel towards the hoard, something like i stood and watched them as they searched my corner. absolutely nothing. inigo was found. however, when i almost please my be released and go. hi. i'm just home. you probably just like a moment liam. i mean, hancock was quite been in but at the same time it was a it was, i opened off for me on the same time to know that in the high of a pandemic, that you can be treated in such a manner. no,
2:35 am
to no respects. ah ah ah . ringback racism is very common within the hospital environment.
2:36 am
it's so common you call really foul to see when you are black nor my experience has been on the front line during lockdown. was very unpleasant. you see in so many people also seeing colleagues being taken ill. it was never stay in very scary. the southern interest in the suffering of black people is it brings mixed emotions for me. i feel more confident to speak about the racism that i've personally experience without being told. i've got a chip on my shoulder, or i'm trying a race called as a result of what medical staff have experience on the front line during the
2:37 am
pandemic, and also the black clothes, my protests. we've found that some of our white colleagues have actually started to listen to us. so during covert, did ye, cuz he said, you feel like things got worse over the years and, you know, did you experience more racism? the racism was very quite clear for black nurses where i worked in a, an area that is predominantly white. and i'd been working in this, i n. e for probably either in a year on the agency. and i became acutely aware that i didn't see any black patience, but obviously awful. well, you know, this is, is, is it predominately why area we don't really expect to see any black patients. but cove it, oh my gosh, that was such a difference to what i was used to seeing in that particular hospital,
2:38 am
every single patient that come in mores black, i guess that kind of high and my fear, cuz there was often times or i couldn't get p p and again we found that we was being disproportionately m allocate it to more high risk areas, especially being black agency nurses. and that seem quite apparent across the board . and me in my black colleagues would notice it. and we'd have conversations. ah, this is a lot done of her. no, not being able to, to, to be around your family. not being able to, to be a working on,
2:39 am
especially working with young foreigner boy young people as well. and you know, and i haven't the direct communication that you would do on her, on a normal day to day as a point where as a young black person, the world shows you waive me to be black. it wears on me. and i try to be there for them as much as possible, even from a distance. that's what keeps me going. thank you for coming and thank you. thank you. no time this afternoon. i'm to come and speak with me as you know where we live in an unprecedented times at the moment and a difficult time, but also a time will change as you, as you, as you've seen in the media, there's a lot of negative perceptions that go hand in hand with office black people and that people as a culture, how did you take to see and those incidence, the dog situation that happened, that one kind of annoyed up on the like, it was like why she did it doesn't really make sense. and then to have enjoyed like
2:40 am
which and kind of on the back of the please, please call the cops. please call to got their african american man threatening my life. please tell them whatever you like. they both combine and then they just kinda escalated each other. so much more than they should do. and i think like everything was coming together so quickly and then being in lockdown as well. maybe even was because you can talk to people about that like women would now well. and so we can't do anything about that. and can talk about the face to face very hard prefix and say i'm very resilient, but we only support sometimes a final support for my elder uncle
2:41 am
