a halt. the love and support that's most needed in china right now the news popping up on their phones is mostly too worrying so are the scenes in some cities and the virus at the center will hun checkpoints everywhere with a lockdown in place streets of completely emptied out if you're a woman than me and. when we face a new type of virus of which a lot is still unknown a lot of people may feel anxious when. psychologists have been deployed in hospitals to treat patients. hi-lo and experts are there to instruct people on how to protect themselves and then melton commission here under all the gloom phone call beijing says it has the situation under control images released by the state media show that supermarkets have sufficient supplies and prices are stable but some dismissed those images as propaganda this student from thailand in holland has

such a different experience it's very difficult to find out if you want to buy it right now because this is a shortage everyone wants. but it's already too late to. raise the interest said watching it while your shirt while jacket one. jacket 3 layers and a red mask and a regular doodle. trapped at home some people have followed an online call chanting who hum do your best from their windowless. small gestures to lift people's spirits like this light show in one flashing words of encouragement everyone here is waiting and hoping that life in the city can soon return to normal. let's get the latest on the story now we can speak to correspondent mathias building in beijing hi mathias

a british up to date on the latest steps that authorities are taking there a to contain this outbreak. the most important step is of course this lockdown of a city unprecedented. people cannot get out of the city and inside and we are seeing more and more travel restrictions we mentioned ban on foreign travel and buses into and out of beijing the capital. is has stopped but the most important thing is the people in china and the people here are very wary of the government's response they are taking measures themselves they are staying at home as you can see it's eerily empty in here this is one of the main tourist spots in beijing so people are very worried about the response of their government we mentioned there that beijing is now advising citizens to delay all travel abroad as well it what effect is that having.

a lot of destinations have already stopped travel into one and out of 100 and now there's this advice the most important. effect that is that this is going to have is that authorities might delay the issuance of pos ports at cetera but as i said the most important thing for people now is to understand what's really going on and there's still some things that we do not know about this virus so everybody is just now just trying to stay at home as much as they can. tell us more about how all of this has affected daily life in china. i just said the streets are really empty people stay home now is the holiday season the holiday season is quiet of course anyway but we expect this to go on the

holidays have been extended people also stocking up on food although that has not really reached an extent where we see empty supermarkets or anything but people are very cautious they are stocking up on mosques on face mosques and. handwash and disinfectants so people here i think you are prepared for this to go on for quite some time all right correspondent he is spending of there reporting in beijing thank you so much well officials in the german state of bavaria have confirmed that a 33 year old german man has been diagnosed with the corona virus of the state health minister melanie who most said the man contracted the virus from a chinese colleague at a conference in germany that both of them attended as she said very a is well prepared to deal with this and any other cases officials have compiled

concise information on the people the infected chinese coworker came into contact with during her visit. him and in fact in financial if you look at the current case the patient is doing well he remains in isolation in the clinic in munich we had originally attempting to reach people he has been in contact with especially family members and people connected to his company who have already been informed. heads to feel my dear and our political correspondent hans frontals listening in to that press conference he joins us for more hi hans what else did the bavarian health minister say about this case. i think what's most interesting about this case is the way the infection was spread to the german man the woman came from china but she did not come from who han where the infection broke broke off she came from shanghai and she had been visited by her parents from who han just before she left for germany so that's the way the infection got to germany also she did not have

any flu symptoms she was asymptomatic all the time that she was here in germany and only on her flight back to china the chief feel sick and then go to the authorities there and there in china in shanghai her infection with the coronavirus was diagnosed so this shows that the transmission of the virus is possible from people who don't have any symptoms of the sickness themselves to people who are in close contact with them the question then is what is close contact and the german authorities have been saying that if you spend maybe of 15 minutes in a conversation with such a person that will probably be sufficient to be infected and what about how prepared the state of bavaria is to deal with a possible coronavirus outbreak. well all of the officials that have been talking to the press this morning have been saying that the prepare ations have been

ongoing ever since the corona virus outbreak in china in other words they have been reviewed before even the 1st case was detected here in germany so the level of preparation is very high at the moment all the people that were in contact with this chinese woman in close contact with the man the german man who has been infected have been isolated there from told to stay at home that's about 40 people all in all here in germany that are now on under observation and the patient himself as we have heard is in hospital although he is not particularly ill but he is being looked after in hospital he's being isolated in hospital and the authorities are saying normal hygenic preparation. precautions such as washing hands. and regular airing of rooms where sick people might be or staying at home these should be a sufficient at the moment to avoid an infection all right our correspondent homes brand fair thank you well with the coronavirus continuing

to spread scientists and pharmaceutical companies are racing to find a way to medically contain the virus lessons learned from the sars epidemic nearly 2 decades ago may help them in developing a vaccine it's a race against time before the virus has had a chance to mutate china has begun testing in nature i.v. drug to fight the new corona virus that is spreading rapidly the medication known as a lluvia. prevents the virus from reproducing in effect slowing down the spread of the infection chinese health authorities requested the drug according to a spokeswoman for us from a company. scientists around the world are racing to develop a vaccine against the disease chinese researchers were able to quickly identify and share the genetic sequence of the new corona virus allowing scientific research

teams to get to work right away they hope to build on the dot and research gathered during the 2003 art break of the severe acute respiratory syndrome or sauce the disease is also caused by a form of the koran or virus. the research teams are pursuing several different approaches with global health agencies hoping at least one treatment will be ready for human trials within a few month. the new virus is not as deadly as most of us but scientists fear it could mutate into an even deadlier and more contagious variant ok so let's get some analysis on that now we have a fabienne schmidt from did have you science with us hi fabienne as we mentioned germs reported its 1st case of corona virus now can you tell us more about what kind of preventative measures are in place to prevent an outbreak of this illness. yes for now all the authorities in germany have seen roll.

program protocols new so to say basically tracking down contact persons telling them to stay home and of course austria's are prepared to put people who have survivors in isolation this is something that's not totally a new role or basically prepare for something the examples of time especially considering that people could come into germany was all kinds of diseases from countries and that they have to do was to try to if we look at the origin of china there's we've seen almost a doubling of the number of cases in china in one day is the speed increasing and is the reach as well. it looks like the specific virus is very contagious as we just heard there is is under cations that it might even be contagious as turned into beijing period which means before people shows symptoms how ever what one we what we have to take into consideration is that not everybody who gets

sick by this virus will go into a hospital sort of figures the official figures that we have which is no more than 4500. might actually be higher that also puts into perspective the question of fatalities which are no over $100.00 which means if the figures of actual people with the virus are so much higher than maybe the mortality is considerably lower at least in percentage well we said authorities are taking preventative measures meanwhile researchers worldwide are working on a vaccine how promising are these efforts so far. the vet is the perspective of the vaccine is probably better than ever in history some researchers estimate that it could take just about 3 months to develop a mix of that scene so to put it into a human testing however before summer we are unlikely to see

a ready vaccine that different approaches several different research teams are working on totally different approaches but one of them is likely to work as the point is however that the epidemic might be over by the times of extreme hits the market now there's another interesting development as we also heard is the question of medication ozzy's h i v n t viral medications that are somehow promising and may work so that's also in medication against ebola that has been taking into consideration for use against the corona virus but one still has to see whether that works or not all right 5 the internet from d.w. science thank you for that analysis. let's get around it now some other stories making news around the world in washington u.s. president donald trump has met with the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu and opposition leader benny gantz offered up details of his new plan for peace in

but 1st the last survivors of auschwitz have been gathering at the nazi death camp in what was once occupied poland their numbers are growing ever fewer but some have returned there to bear witness they were joined by world leaders to mark 75 years since auschwitz was liberated in january of 1905 in the final months of world war 2 . reliving the horrors of auschwitz. the agony edged over his face. and yet despite the pain these holocaust survivors have returned to this film a death camp to remind the world where anti semitism and racism can lead.

in from to think gates of auschwitz known as the gates of death a commemoration ceremony in which delegates from $61.00 countries the taking part and $200.00 auschwitz survived is each with that terrible memories of what happened here i've been alone with ashes and naked women trucks from the barracks to a guest chamber i can hear what you know his screaming i can hear it in my subconscious when i remember the infamous oh you. elza baker who's blind was 8 when she arrived at auschwitz she was one of the 23000 sinti and roma people to put it here it isn't it oh not for me to to pin him among so many people who have suffered so blatantly perhaps even much

more so than oh i. and. i i think. if you. don't know. it i'm upset but in spite of the past anti semitism is on the rise again in 2020 we hear the same lies the nazis used so effectively in their propaganda they said jews have too much power crews control the economy and the media jews control governments jews control everything we hear this madness on line in the media and even within democratic governments. these brave men and women who know the cost of anti semitism they can't fake it but it

already seems that to many of you who go on listening what on. and for more on the story we can speak to pinch us goldschmidt he is the chief rabbi of moscow and president of the european conference of rabbis mr goldsmith thank you so much for joining us here on d w we were seeing those images of survivors speaking yesterday saying it is so important to remember it it seems that message is more urgent than ever at least that's what we took away from those ceremonies yesterday why is that in order that the suffering should not be in vain to give meaning to those in a lot of people who did not survive auschwitz the last words which the scribbled on the wall was never forget and i think that this is the message to our generation and to the future is in order for this not to happen again we're not allowed to forget our people listening to that message. i think that the fact the 50 heads

of states when jews must week to come away with 50 years of the 75 years of the bush of auschwitz the fact there was just great effort in auschwitz yesterday speaks for itself speaks volumes there will be a time in the future which are important to look like looked at were those survivors will no longer be around to take part in these ceremonies how do you carry that message forward. the message is carried foot forward through i think that today in europe which is which is almost 500000000 citizens every. 1st every child every school child should be one day in his life should go visit auschwitz to see what can happen in the center of. of the world culture in the center of worlds or decision what can happen

if things go wrong if just hate this intolerance you can end up in auschwitz what about the fact that we're seeing at the same time as we're remembering auschwitz we're seeing a rise of an anti-semitism not only across europe from right here in germany why is that. there's a lot of political turbulence the european project is on the question and when things are fine when the no economic difficulties people don't search to blame the other today because of such problems because of the fears experienced by a large part of the european population so we're looking always to blame you want the immigrant to jew so and this is the reason why anti-semitism reoccurs but i have to say that a large part of this resurgence of anti-semitism is because of the social media

social media is totally an edited contents of of. of people a totally unbalanced can and influence millions of people so radicals can influence minds of people and they are being given this platform they don't even have to pay for it and this is the great danger and i think the part of the political turbulence today is defeated by all those people have on the social media. mr grossman you also rebuilt the jewish community in russia after going in there in the very early ninety's looking at the jewish community you have in moscow and also across russia but also non jews how do you teach them to remember what has happened had to carry that into the future what is the message that you give them. the message. we give to our coast citizens in all those countries where today the is again

a jewish community and i think the revival of the jewish communities in eastern europe after the fall of the wall is has been one of the great miracles of our times and i thank god that i was able to do my little part in this the renaissance of the jewish community in eastern europe and i think that when was tell the governments the fact that you have to do a functioning jewish community and you country this is adding to the beauty of your country and you place so i think this is a message to which it is being received with a lot of understanding we'll have to leave it there the chief rabbi of moscow president of the european conference of rabbis thank you for joining us here in the w. thank you for having me. moving on to some other news now in
