and painful for the descendants. to so much. to dart into 3rd rush starts of your return on d w it's a little bit of that. this is news live from berlin the deadly coronavirus continues to spread more than 2000 people have now been infected as a new cases are detected within china and it is the death toll rises there officials say they expect the outbreak will only get worse. as the world prepares to mark 75 years since the liberation of the auschwitz concentration camp we hear

firsthand from a survivor about the horrors she experienced there. group and the next note. from the smoke from the chimney. i'm nick spicer welcome to the program in china health officials have announced they expect to see the corona virus outbreak intensify. the virus has already appeared in all that one of china's provinces and in at least 11 other countries china has said it will boost efforts to contain the virus that means even more transported travel bans canceling major public events and shutting tourist attractions as well as widespread health screening meanwhile the death toll is rising at least 56 people in china have died and more than 2000 more have been

infected. oh. whole city in quarantine a public health announcement is broadcast to a near empty street and we're hand but the medical centers are overflowing and even if residents feel well they could still be a carrier of the new coronavirus china's health minister told reporters that the virus is ability to spread is getting stronger and he she what our knowledge of the new corona virus is limited or the origin hasn't been found. from our observation the disease can be spread during the incubation period the period lasts for 10 days the shortest is one day the longest is 14 days this is very different from sars shows look here and that means a seemingly healthy person carrying the virus can affect other people before

symptoms appear. there's no vaccine or a drug to prevent the virus but medical research is safe 1st tests on a possible vaccine could start in 3 months time. here in who hand all access to pharmacies hotels or any other public spaces comes off the temperature check many residents are taking these new restrictions in stride. i'm not worried it's not bad because the city government has treated us very humanely that is to say all aspects of the fence measures have been very satisfactory i think now let's just get home state dogs and just you know wait. but the doctors in daily contact with sick patients can't wait for it to pass dressing for battle against the virus the city says there's a shortage of mosques and protective goggles and we hand. and chinese state t.v. shows medical supplies an army medics arriving in the city from other regions to

help the stretched health services that. it's the middle of the festival of the new year a celebration that has been drastically scaled back this year. and for more on this i'm joined by a christian in virus spokes person of the world health organization china's health ministry says the deadly new virus is ability to spread it is growing how much do we need to be concerned. look it's a novel coronavirus which means it's a new virus but we don't have any treatment to measures yet other than the clinical treatments off's you know fighting a fever and a cough we don't obviously have any vaccine because it's in the wires so it's something which we knew all would at some stage happen in the world but it's definitely something which is spreading and will get worse before it gets better we've seen travellers leaving china and coming to other countries around the world

to acquire the lock by now and taking this virus with them what we haven't seen and that is very good news that in those countries we haven't seen any further transmission and that's a sign to look out for. the w.h.o. is expected to announce whether this new coronavirus will be designated what it calls a public health emergency of international concern what is its current status. it is definitely an emergency in china there's no doubt about that there's no other or fishel status this. description of a public health emergency of an international concern has certain criteria not quite technical criteria it is not linked to the amount of cases and that's very important so we're not looking out cases or the deaths it's linked to the fact that it's a new virus it's linked to the fact that it's internationally spreading and it's linked to the fact that it's human to human transmission is ongoing in other

countries that's why the fact that this hasn't been spreading yet further in other countries is a very significant fact in china as far as we know all cases have yet been linked to one directly and all human to human transmission as have been within close families or in close circumstances so that's what we know right now but we're constantly monitoring the expertise of the emergency committee also constantly being up to date on what's going on there will reconvene shortly that is something we can safely assume. that was christian lynn meyer a spokes person at the world health organization now take a look at some of the other stories making news around the worlds. 19 soldiers have been killed in a pre-dawn raid on government forces in mali there has been no claim of responsibility for the attack but islamic groups with links to al qaida have carried out similar raids in the past. 31 people are confirmed

dead in the aftermath of the earthquake that struck turkey on friday 1600 people were injured by the magnitude 6.8 quake that hit the town. and its surroundings rescue teams are still searching for survivors. in india annual republic day celebrations concluded with a parade in the capital new delhi it's the highlight of 3 days of festivities celebrations marking the anniversary of the country's democratic constitution and india's independence from british rule. the few remaining survivors are beginning to gather in auschwitz one day before the official ceremony marking 75 years since the liberation of the extermination camp even today the very word auschwitz is a synonym for man's inhumanity to man monday marks the anniversary of when the soviet army freed the camp and its remaining prisoners in $140.00 germany's nazi regime established the auschwitz concentration camp in occupied poland it was run

by the s.s. the brutal military wing of the nazi party it was their deadliest and largest extermination camp in total 1300000 people were deported to auschwitz most of them jews sent there from all across europe nearly all of them were killed most of them in the chambers others were also sent to auschwitz who didn't fit the nazi doctrine such as homosexuals roma and sinti polish political prisoners and jehovah's witnesses but this week is of course about more than numbers it's about the people and as the world remembers those who survived and those who lost their lives for more i'm joined now by correspondent young where people are already gathering ahead of tomorrow's simon. that's right nic i'm standing at the entrance of the original canberra streets one as it's now normally known and you know this

is a place where thousands were incarcerated and many people were murdered but 75 years after the liberation of auschwitz incredibly enough some of the survivors who experience what this place was like under the nazis are still coming back every year we believe around 200 auschwitz survivors of different nationalities from countries around the world many of them jews will be coming here and want to tell their stories remind people of the brutality of the horrors of auschwitz and warn future generations about what the semitism is and what the holocaust was and d.-w. had the opportunity within the last few days to speak to and survive or he won't be coming this year she lives in israel and for her the pain of what she experienced

here. too deep but she still wants to let the world know of her suffering and my. ex. this is me and. my number is 73200 and i. had to show twice daily. counting. pin. number then trip to the $100.00. like snow. from there from the smoke from the chimneys.

and the spirit answers from from the crematorium. and. we just had to understand that this is what happens. when david train arrived there were prisoners who sought luggage they made to mountains of clothes of shoes. proved of bread. and if they found a book they somehow managed to bring it to the children's broke. and there were some 2414 books in the book. so afraid invented this was maybe library and you are in charge people being killed in gas chambers and blood is being burned in claremont loria and the ashes they play in the air they cover their ass there all the federal

buildings they knew that our time will come in june we had 6 months grace to live which we knew we knew we knew we are going to die and you and everybody knew that i won't ever go back to. it that they. hundreds and thousands of people go and that they're on the ashes ashes out all over all over the. place they're stepping on the dead people. just looking simon at the people walking behind you and thinking of her words which is so moving there's no escaping the history it would seem i guess there's a lot of mixed feelings about coming back for some people. well i think as you

heard there inevitably they are and there is so much pain associated with auschwitz but as i was saying many of the survivors think it's so important to come to continue telling their stories and indeed there's a sort of special bond i think that exists between the existing auschwitz survivors is a sense of reunion every year when they come but it's a dwindling number and you know it's hard to say exactly who will be here in many cases illness prevents some of these very elderly people from making the journey but those that have been here today many of them you know with tears in their eyes and with suffering but also showing sympathy even one woman was telling me that she remembers a german guard who gave a warning to the people arriving saying you must also you're 16 and you're able and ready to work and that maybe even saved a few lives she said so these are the kind of very personal stories that people have and as i say for many it's about warning future generations that really is the

key motivation. and what can you tell us about the commemorations to morrow at this point. to morrow will be a more official or more solo. ceremony with the presidents of poland and israel also the german president and the french president will be here and other heads of state also those are $200.00 or so survivors as well laying wreaths and speech and speeches will be made of course and there will be a and honoring of the survivors in the memory of the 1100000 and probably many more who died here but also some sense of celebration that 75 years ago the horrors of auschwitz came to an end when serviette troops liberated the camps here. and young reporting from auschwitz thanks for that. and we will have
