be our guest. managed by. this is d. w. news live from berlin italy takes radical measures to combat the coronavirus the entire nation of 60000000 people has been told to stay at home restrictions are in place on travel and public gatherings we'll bring you up to date on the alfred there and other countries also coming up we visit the ethiopian family grieving the

loss of their son and the crash of a towing $737.00 that's passenger jet last year. and political chaos in afghanistan 2 men are sworn in as president and separate ceremonies with neither recognizing the others claim to victory and last september's contested election. i'm sumi someone's got to thank you for joining us italy has expanded its response to the corona virus by locking down the entire country travel restrictions are in place across the whole of italy a people are being told that they should only move around for work for urgent health needs or in emergencies and they will need to carry documents declaring their reasons for travel now more than 9000 people have been infected with the virus in italy and more than 460 people now have died.

empty restaurant chazz a common site now in italy which has extended its emergency coronavirus measures to cover the whole country public gatherings are banned only restaurants and cafes that guarantee customers can remain at least one meter part can open and all must close at dusk on the eve of the bumped up measures taking hold the some dynas the last evening meal outs for a while. its lease prime minister outlined the measures and took the nation's youth to task. i am about to sign a decree that we can sum up with the expression i stay at home. but we are more. we understand that young people want to socialize. we have seen the images graphs where the nightlife is fun where they drink outside

bars. it is no longer possible for us to allow this because of the risk of infection. the measures also restrict people to all but essential travel commuting for work is allowed if people have documentation proving it's necessary. i'm forced by my company to travel for work so i must do it every day from monday to friday but. the queue here at the gate is a problem because necessary it makes it difficult to keep our distance and respect all the measures in place just because. by telling the nation's 60000000 people to stay at home until at least april italy the country west hit by the coronavirus after china is hoping it can finally turn the tide. let's go to rome now where we

can speak to journalist macon yacob beneath in rome italy's emergency measures now apply to the entire country not just to the north you are in the capital what's it been like on the streets of rome today. clear this morning i went up to work and the streets are very quiet although they've been quiet for a few days maybe people on the streets and shops and bars are open people can still go outside and walk the dog public transport is working because people are going to work but it's certainly very quiet supermarkets so it so far we didn't have the case of supermarkets being kind of ransacked like of happened like what has happened in other countries but last night after the degree with announced people rushed to the supermarket to join the crowd supermarkets so that made them and shelves today even though the decree doesn't mean the supermarkets close so people have to be allowed to go out shopping yeah i think if you're saying that you were out on the streets this morning other people are also going to work so what exactly

does this lockdown mean is that just not being enforced. so the lockdown doesn't actually say that people can't go outside within our own city we are allowed to go out for mostly it's actually them so people have to go to work are still going to have public transport is running as normal. shops are open but the main message is we should stay at home and so no socialising bars are very limited hours we're not supposed to socialise in groups so it jim closed restaurants museums and doing all the end of things because. but you know businesses still operate. what if. we know that we're on the extreme lee a popular tourist destination what are tourists doing. 13 of them has been done a lot in the last few weeks it's been really noticeable. just can still come in and

out the degree doesn't block people from traveling in fact even and we can't travel to other cities but only if it's an imaginary so we need to have a document to prove the rest of the need of the health to go back to our. reasons for terrorist the advice is not to come to italy of crisis but they can leave so if somebody is here flights are still running may have been canceled so for example british airways and easy jet of councils their flights are still flights available there are still trains to leave. you might be asked when you go back to your grandchildren might be some questions about where you've been and might make people from italy going to. so i like aborting days. we've heard reports that our health officials public health facilities are struggling with the magnitude of this outbreak so what are medical professionals saying about this lockdown is this going to help. so i've spoken to quite

a few doctors who are going on the front lines of this crisis and many are worried that actually the bag caused by this lockdown is going to make people worried and maybe call into health services even are. worried there's also i spoke to a doctor who's in the naf and she told me there's a very conflicting guidelines that are coming both from the state level and the regional level and she said they're quite unclear so she she would like to see hospitals given mark and independence to sort out their own patients because right now there's a lot of disorganization the health care system in italy and a bit of background healthcare system is kind of reeling after years of cuts and it has one of the law is. ratios of that to inhabit and. so there are 3.2 beds for every 1000 inhabitants while the european average is 05

so there's a shortage of that there's a shortage of intensive care units this is especially the case in long but the region which is most affected. in italy but the fear is that it's good as it spreads the health care system is going to be overwhelmed and it's also health care system where people are underpaid doctors and nurses are underpaid exhausted so it doesn't even arthur and now there's a crisis all right journalist. speaking to us from rome thank you very much thank you. now here in germany one of the biggest soccer matches of the season saturday's bundesliga match between boys said dortmund and shaka will be played without fans in the stands because of fears over the coronavirus earlier it was announced that mentioned bloodbaths game against cologne tomorrow would also take place behind closed doors local authorities are so far stopping short of calling

off matches entirely at the german football league the d.f.l. says the season must end as planned in may. meanwhile in china president xi jinping has visited the city of han where the corona virus was 1st detected back in december the visit was seen as a sign of the virus is diminishing threat in china with just 19 new cases reported across the nation on tuesday who harm the nearby cities have been under lockdown but local officials and who bay province have been told to prepare for the easing of travel restrictions and a for business to resume operations. everyone is ordering online so the packages pile up whoever can stay at home does this young mother has not left her housing complex for 6 weeks because she's scared of becoming infected the only time she leaves the house is to pick up her deliveries she works from home and has some car he gets home schooling so that if they did that.

all the social interactions take place online even cars taekwondo lessons. you know that how does it feel to be at home every day. was the last your great mum's here all the time while i'm learning no one knows when the schools will open again beijing remains on the highest level of alert everyone has been told to keep their distance from people the few shops that are actually open are under strict orders even people waiting in lines have to be highly disciplined. but while corona virus spreads around the rest of the world the official number of cases in china is declining and despite the fact of the virus originated in china people are feeling increasingly self-confident. there is nothing to worry about here we have

a very good government we're safe here. more and more places are using digital systems to control who can enter. personal data must be provided including passport numbers of people who have been in the womb crisis zone or who have contact with those who are sick can easily be spotted but what happens to the data collected and who will be passed on to is not made public but you have access to office buildings and restaurants is only possible research id checks but most restaurants are closed anyway for this one the only preparing food for delivery revenue is down by 2 thirds. was meant for the town come in my the woman for the year found on this piece of paper we register the body temperature of the cook and the packer from. later we have the temperature of the driver. coming up we pia. that's why there's

but 1st one year ago today ethiopian airlines flight e.t. 30 to crash shortly after leaving out of and route to nairobi all 157 people on board died and all planes of the same model boeing $737.00 max were grounded around the world families of the victims who came from more than 30 countries have attended a memorial service close to where the plane crashed the surface came a day after ethiopia's aircraft accident investigation bureau confirmed initial findings that link the crash the plane's anti stall software the bureau identified no issues with the airline or with the pilot's handling of the plane. not all of the relatives were able to attend the memorial service today because interest mactire visited the family of one of the victims in kenya's capital nairobi. it's a year later but this for me is still a morning adela mohammad was in his way back home he was on the ill fated utopian

endurance flight that crashed shortly after takeoff in addis ababa this is the last for 2 he sent his family and grown up she is he was very happy when he took this picture but now he is no longer with us whenever we want to see him this is what we look at which we look at the photo to remember him and then we put it away. bella has been the last in saudi arabia watching as a lab technician he was the pride of his family he grew up in. but through good grades and hard work he managed to make it out and even send money back home. and say here. working. the way he used to help us all our hopes were on him that we looked up to him because when we told him our problems he was always quick to send us some money he didn't want to see his parents suffer. much 10th

21000 of supposed to be a happy b. but after hours of waiting the received the message that their son had died along with 156 others on board nobody survived the crash. the help of ethiopian airlines his father brought him on and was able to dig down his remains be buried the minute symmetry not far from. over. the death of 157 passengers may no longer be making headlines around the world but he had to brighten mohammed's family with memories of his sadness still vader's role and leave but even as these remains of bodied the gap that he left behind is yet to be feeling. like many others does for many still seeking compensation from boeing there's an ongoing court case in the us and the company 77 marks planes have been grounded.

already things are working out on the other sites because i remember. a group they had a problem with their plane. ok on. the plane here which crashed with our children good so many problems that was with it because i understand the computer freed. up dallas for the conference himself with the knowledge that he son died having lived a good life. the u.s. has started withdrawing its troops from afghanistan in line with a joint peace deal with the taliban the withdrawal came on a day of political chaos in the country 2 rivals took the presidential oath of office in separate ceremonies neither the incumbent afghani nor his challenger abdullah abdullah recognize each other status and they are both claiming the presidency that the. incumbent

president afghani was sworn in under fire. as frightened people ran out of the presidential palace he brushed off the explosions. knowing we've seen many big attacks so don't get scared of one or 2 explosions stay calm. again. he said it was time to get to work. our responsibility is assuring peace and ending the 40 years of will be sure that dignified peace will come with the courage of the people and in the framework of the republic. but minutes later this man abdullah abdullah was also sworn in elsewhere in the same presidential compound. he disputes the results of last year's elections which saw low turnout and i would geishas of widespread voter fraud. he's also disputed

results in previous elections but after 2014 he served for a while as ashraf ghani is chief executive. i got that's all it was if we had not compromised in 2014 for international stability and community the country would have been in crisis but now things are different if we were to accept fraudulent results this time it would mean the end of democracy in afghanistan. that up on a stand by upon the. many voters complained of a lack of vision in both candidates and what happens now will both presidents appoint their own ministers and governors will someone resort to force. the government is supposed to be preparing for talks with the taliban following up on a u.s. troop withdrawal agreement last month there right now it's unclear which government that will be. now reducing our collective

carbon footprint as one of the biggest challenges of our time one restaurant here in berlin is doing its part by trying to reduce the amount of waste they produce to 0 and this is how they're doing it. at the end of the day this little pile is all that remains of to lift a base from the dishes that make these delegates and yasmin mountain has opened 3 of germany's 1st restaurants and then there. are you just got every city every restaurant in general should produce things in a more sustainable way whether they take up the 0 waste cause a lot of operators have a big responsibility towards their guests and the environment because people who produce a lot also produce a lot of waste for the few. the couple. trying to produce it's a little bit just possible seeing is. there a way stress johns' the proteins comes from local organic found and it's free as

plastic packaging. all of the dishes served on the can. on the menu today roasted. mushrooms with santa reef root on potato terrain and have made sourdough pita bread with various tips we don't name to vegan eyes anyone or turn them into 0 waste is live on that the end of the day we just want to serve up good food and i'm on dogmatic way. but we're going to remain trapped and i took the money we want to do something not talk about it just do it. because that isn't entirely new england's 1st 0 waste restaurant silo opened back in 2014. constantly often from no way what is the sushi chef than before he took over running the kitchen at frey and so the family restaurant is benefiting from his experience. to do elected from a station there with salt water and whatever assistance already voting against. the
