more can the authorities do now to contain a further spreading of the virus i think we know most of us don't know because a lot has already been done. and we are i think we are entering uncharted territory here is this is a full blown lockdown only essential it not make it to vittie such as pharmacies grocery stores supermarkets are allowed to carry on so it's not clear what else can be closed one thing that is clear is that we've always been told that the lockdown and all the strict measures that the government has adopted we would see their effects further down the line so a lot of hoping a lot of us are hoping that this week maybe we'll start to see. you know the spread slowing down a little bit this is not clear it's not clear when the effects to kick in but we're hoping to see the effects. well i mean you know it's like a pretty overwhelming situation and of course some of those who are probably the

most overwhelmed us a would be medical staff and what support our day receiving at the moment well it's it's quite it's a huge operation of spoken to a few doctors in i.c.u. . and they've describes a race against time to free up more beds every day and by the end of the day no matter how many beds they're freed up there you know always the same amount of beds is available because so many patients keep going to hospitals long body has called doctors recalled doctors from retirement but also invited doctors from cuba from china and from venezuela there's a constant recruitment process to have new nurses and new doctors every week and still they don't they never seem to be you know. and this this is meanwhile authorities are moving patients we are ambulances but also helicopters to to hospitals far away to free up more beds so this is the kind of support operation that it's quite astonishing really but still it doesn't seem to be enough. well

exactly does that mean. yes indeed to german federal state and agreed to is the state premiers assisting the state premiers during that phone conversation between idol america and the state attorney or to internet and contact which means dots no more than 2 people will be allowed to interact ways it's all there are scores of these exceptions being made for 5 years of old people as a being i dare to say my household household diesel comes after it is own conversation and after some of the german states had already individually implemented partial curfews a partial over those done so i see mentioned tightening after measures we successor as well as restaurants the closure of hairdressers so we're going to be further today into lockdown hegemon manual why is that the negotiations take so long. well simply because it's not to defend her estate and to events and does measures

to be imposed as measures to to do the original state and for example the state of premier of the lower saxony as defined by that was a good step forward on down he was that invoking the fact that for example some families need a crime to you know that is not a didn't have access to to a garden and i couldn't take some fresh air for example so he will he thought i was a guest i have a full i'm coming to you but other regions such as the very hour for example hired you to meant it and love down and stay primarily because i had actually said that people should remain inside and this traveling and this necessary charity while going for food shopping or to the doctor but up until now everyone was to get out to go for walks and to go for a minute to go take some fresh air perhaps following this measure and now people

will only be allowed to do dots individually and a manual how will these measures actually be implemented. while i think it. should i come to 5 data of the trade i is on individual restaurants to do exceed and because it's going to be quite hard to check on every single citizen to see a terrorist acting to measures so it's a long one small local for people to take their response to given to us to build for themselves but also the show solidarity for this and not interact between interact with more people than necessary so as to spread as lost ovide the spread of the virus ok well d.w. correspondent political correspondent emmanuel shies thank you. spain is experiencing europe's 2nd most severe outbreak of the coronavirus cases in the country increased by 30 percent in one day prime minister pedro sanchez is
