everywhere the galleries and in the whole center i think that not only milan is closing down the whole world is closing down. there was confusion at airports and train stations as some services continue to run officials are still figuring out how to implement travel restrictions residents are adjusting to life under lockdown and it was indeed he said he had to remain positive than calm and live the best way possible taking all precautions we have to adapt our lifestyles but we carry on. i think this measure is to restrict to closing down the whole region if seems like a much too strong reaction for. top league football games are continuing. in empty stadiums. queues quickly formed at supermarkets authorities have told residents not to panic by insisting supply lines will be kept open.

panic took hold in several prisons inmates rioted over new quarantine restrictions at least one died in the chaos. the number of infected persons continues to rise health authorities insist the caution is necessary. or not but there are no parts of italy that are completely immune to the virus there are parts of italy in which the virus currently circulates less but the fact that the virus circulates depends on our behavior depended on it i mean. as italy's tourism centers empty out the world health organization has praised the government's bold and courageous steps which other countries may soon decide to follow. well a number of cases from the new corona virus has surged above 107000 worldwide in the u.s. a cruise ship with

a number of infected people on board will dock in california those who are ill will be hospitalized the rest will be evacuated from the bessel and asked to self quarantine for a 2nd day china has reported no new locally transmitted cases outside who bay province meanwhile meaning that the number of new infections in china is falling in south korea new infections are also stabilizing the number of new reported cases there is significantly lower than previous on previous days saudi arabia has announced a temporary locked out of the qatif region a center of the kingdom's shiite minority. well germany has reported its 1st corona virus death after one of its citizens died in egypt in germany itself the number of known infections has surpassed 900 with the country also increasingly worried about the economic impact of the outbreak to stop the virus stop the spread

of the virus germany's health minister you have on has called for a temporary ban on all gatherings of more than a 1000 people. well joining us now to talk more about the coronavirus and how germany is dealing with it we've got our d.w. political correspondent nina. from d.w. business good to see about this morning made a list start with you germany's political leaders held crisis talks about the coronavirus late into the night what did they decide well one of the major decisions is of course the recommendation by the german government to cancel a big gatherings of more than a 1000 people that is definitely a big change in tone it is still up to regional lawmakers an organizer to implement this and to have the final say but they've already said that it comes very close to being an official old by the german government and so that is definitely something that we didn't see last week then of course they also agreed to implement

a big aid package for the german economy because they're of big concern this might affect the german economy really strongly and so there will be a liquidity packages and so work time agreements will be made easier for companies so they will be compensated if they decide for example to keep their employees at home so public health is obviously the 1st priority for the german government as it is for others but the economy germany has an export driven economy this is a worldwide crisis with the coronavirus how is the crown of virus expected to impact the german economy where it is already impacting the german economy very much. mainly of course to the line industry anything connected with travel people staying at home meetings and gatherings are being canceled people are not going anywhere so the industries are already asking the government to provide some money . but that's not the only problem one is coming one is containment the containment

measures the other problem is china china is a not buying anything at the moment because they're not producing anything they're not buying any cars or anything and secondly many german companies and many companies around the world rely on china for their supply side and they're just not getting materials and parts of china that is hitting the economy hard on the plus side though wouldn't you know just said the aids fought for the german economy germany has a big budget plus all the money is that in a unique position that. germany has around 900 confirmed cases of corona virus so far can the german health care system cope with a rapid spread of the virus well whenever i followed those press conferences last week it was very clear that the german health ministry is extremely proud that the numbers in germany are comparatively low still and if you look at italy is

a completely different story and here in germany the authorities say that they're proud that they have managed to keep the numbers low for a relatively long time especially in those crucial fest weeks and because that bull them some time to find out more about the virus and to find out where they needed to concentrate their efforts and so this now they say has made the health system fatty resilient to that crisis of course everybody's asking themselves what do we do if everybody gets sick at the same time is that still something that we can cope with and so of course that is why people are trying to contain the virus as much as possible still and there's. also an export ban on crucial medical equipment because people have found that some of those special equipment that doctors need to deal with sick patients at home that they were exported abroad and that is no longer a situation that jenny can ford the current virus is making itself felt around the

world in all aspects of life this is reflected in the oil price to understand spending 30 percent drop in in the price of oil attributed to the credit by day corona crisis actually triggered that because especially demand in china is way down and demand goes down prices go down now last week that opec and opec plus opec and russia the 2 biggest exporters are saudi arabia and russia they tried to cut production and cut supplies at a key prize prizes stable they couldn't couldn't agree. to do that and so saudi arabia is out of the price war right in the middle of this corona crisis not a good idea the world economy things the what economy i think if you look at the world economy as a patient and oil is the life blood flow this is to be a drop in. pressure right now block pressure right now in the world it world economy hits in a patient that is already infected with a growing of ours so this is very very serious and we should keep if you look at it

now is claudia lozano a sociologist and latin american expert from the free university here in berlin good morning good morning touches on it why is violence against women a bigger problem in latin america than elsewhere in the world because of the impunity violence against women is not a problem and you problem in the social sciences we know about it and it happens all over the world but the problem in latin america has to do with the way the police functions of the juridical. system the law system the criminal law is that they are not protecting women rights to be a life without violence that and they are not tricks acute in the criminal is that the huge problem that's what we call impunity and there are no other problems in latin america which are related to poverty women are dependent on men for for living their own lives and i think that this is a man that the most they get into the working market they will have the chance to

support their life by themself how important is the protest movement that we're seeing right now of course it's international women's day that brings a lot of women out on the streets but we're seeing massive protests in latin america focusing on this particular problem bonds against women feminist well the women movement is a movement that has brought private problems into or i've had make them a public problem we have the problem i told you that the violence against women is nothing new professional women that are working there to ridicule system that i work in hospitals know about it because they receive the cases so what is happening right now is because of the numbers we are having the magnitude of the problem is that women are talking about it in the media they are talking about they are taking the streets because they want their rights to be they are entitled and they are not waiting. for somebody to come in due to financial cost to them so they are they

have taken their power and they are raising their voices to. show the people the reality of violence and that's the reality of what's happens in the family it's not just in big institutions are on the streets this is not a new problem you've been studying it for quite some time what steps in your opinion need to be taken to reduce the violence against women in latin america and elsewhere. well persecuting the criminals showing that this is i had to doesn't accept that anymore change the culture and that's a big. challenge educational system of the formal system but also the states and putting prevention programs that's something we have in germany it is working very well that would take people from. different institutions not just coming from the law not just in schools but also companies because sexual abuse is

something that happens all the time and we know that worldwide thanks to movements that women feels when they are in their working place not protected that they are trying to live their life without being. abused is something that they have to protect themselves and have they have a right of faith talk to the son and thank you very much for talking with this is morning that was dr claudia was on a sociologist and latin american expert from vs thanks. to lebanon where the economy is in freefall a number of banks are on the verge of going bust and the government has just announced it doesn't have the funds to pay upcoming debts and for many ordinary lebanese the financial crisis is threatening their livelihoods more rashard jar used to sell $400.00 sandwiches a day to day he only sold for the 65 year old is now forced to live off his savings
