no we move for the future. 66 me as you see the full story starts june 3rd on d w. this is deja vu news live from berlin and the w.h.o. stops testing donald trump's treatment of choice for coverage 19 the u.n. health agency suspends studies of hydroxy chloroquine made safety concerns trump and other heads of state and push the drug as a potential shield against a corrupt our us. also coming up millions of children exposed to violence because of lockdowns a new study predicts
2:01 pm
a surge and beatings emotional abuse and sexual violence against children due to the very measures intended to protect them. plus the match that could decide the season's bundesliga race the league's top 2 clubs fire and you can proceed dark and clash tonight between your preview. the ad. i'm sumi so much going to thank you for joining us it has been touted by u.s. president on a tramp and brazil jarboe scenario as a potential cure for the corona virus but evidence has been mounting that anti-malarial drug hydroxy chloroquine isn't effective and might even be dangerous now the un's world health organization has paused its trial of the truck it cited a major study published last week which found that hydroxy clarke when could lead.
2:02 pm
2 arrhythmias of normal heart beats and worse than covert patients survival chances now the w.h.o. had already expressed skepticism about hydroxy chloroquine now it is announced it will stop its own trial of the drug while it further reviews drug safety. were just acting of caution based on the recent results will still these 2 to ensure that we can continue safely with that arm to try let's get some perspective on the story with mohamed windier he's a viral legist at britain's lancaster university 100 thanks for joining us what does the clinical evidence say right now about using hydroxy chloroquine to treat covered 1000. i think the decision by the want of health organization to pause the communicants foreign and. hydroxycut reporting statement forward is based on a one lawyer scale study published last week on the 96000 people being taken away there by proxy meaning i mean 675 in hospital so it's
2:03 pm
a massive study that lack the data comes from the sumburgh who made apple based on this at study which was afterwards to a study which means that that been already existing you take that and analyze based on that who important consideration came up one was that people who were communicated with their i talked to me and 25 percent of those died compared to 9 percent going on 3 to go and secondly long that 8 percent of the people who were featured great that hydroxycut or they have that you know we've never seen the empirical or heartbeat change compared 2.3 percent in monthly data so all in all this is really clear evidence that iraq signal reporting it's not only that but it has no efficacy against that from the virus all right so we're talking with some very real concerns here mohamed why do you think that that hydroxide chloroquine has been presented as a possible treatment for a covered 1000 by some including the u.s.
2:04 pm
president. well that is really important to and i think there should be some sort of accountability because whenever people keep talking about any treatment they don't have any scientific data that is of course no choice and that is actually the reason in 6 continents this drug has been used that we surely could look having any scientific evidence on this i think you'd see so that is either going sending and when it would be extremely insensitive to figure out on many people who have died because of using this drug which is having no scientific backing on it if this drug is not safe where does that leave us in terms of clinical research on covered 1000 . that's very important question i think if we believe the hydroxy clerking that is not the end of the war we have other drugs both are being tested and one of them is severely describing very positive outcome in the beginning like 31 percent people who are recovered me to go and staying at the hospital can be reduced by 4 days
2:05 pm
going to significant so therefore my suggestion from the beginning house being that we have to focus all our attention and the sources to test drugs like rem vestibular which has some hopes mom and many of. britain's lancaster university thank you so much let's take a look at some of today's other coronavirus developments there are now more than 5500000 reported cases of the cove in 1000 infection according to johns hopkins university more than 2 thirds of the cases are in europe and the u.s. the german government is reportedly planning to lift a travel warning for tourists for 31 european countries starting mid june this will apply to all a you member states as well as the u.k. and the 4 states of the borderless shang in zone iceland norway switzerland and liechtenstein and tunisia will deploy 340000 security personnel to enforce social distancing measures the country is preparing to reopen its economy philippine
2:06 pm
president or to go to terra to says he will not allow schools to reopen until a coronavirus vaccine is available the country close schools in march. and millions of children around the world are facing a surge in violence forced labor and under age marriage during the current virus crisis that is a warning of the leading children's aid organization world vision and a new report it estimates that lockdown measures which were enacted to protect people are actually putting vulnerable children at greater risk schools out in ivory coast this was march since then hundreds of millions of boys and girls to london have been in law. new classrooms no playgrounds and nowhere to run. charities are warning that the very measures meant to protect them could see them fall victim to violence. like 12 year old could be in bangladesh whose father is out of work. hits us if we ask for
2:07 pm
more food he is frustrated and angry. it's hard to concentrate because i'm hungry. i have headaches and sometimes feel dizzy. everything around me seems blaring. across bangladesh world vision has been helping children whose family lives have been turned upside down by this virus but these are unprecedented times. this crisis is like. it's like nothing we've seen before. it's. over. so all. of us who are. out. world vision estimates that
2:08 pm
$85000000.00 more children may be exposed to violence during quarantine in bangladesh beatings by parents increased by 40 percent an additional $4000000.00 girls a risk of being forced into marriages in the next 2 years. the u.n. says that spike is the result of families looking to recover financial losses frontline workers are concerned that few year to act know will lead to more trauma in the future. or. work. for months the karuna virus crisis has been one of and intensive care ward now
2:09 pm
experts say without extra funding and protection may give way to a crisis that is longer lasting and harder to heal. as we saw their children in bangladesh are particularly vulnerable facing abuse and violence during lockdowns but that is true in many parts of the world including right here in europe where countries like spain and italy had very strict lockdown measures let's talk about that with aaron greenberg he's a europe regional advisor for child protection with the u.n. children's fund unicef and he joins us from geneva hi aaron if you look at the situation here in europe what is the biggest threat facing children here. well it's certainly the lockdown is a big threat to children because it's important to step back and remember that that creek obit close to 300000000 children young children ages 2 to 4 experience some form of buying this regular basis globally a whole one in 4 children that when the mother was going to have an intimate
2:10 pm
partner violence and intimate partner violence and how to listen girls 15000000 global that subjected to to force sexual intercourse or other forms of sexual abuse so you layer on top of a locked up where children are not able to be in contact with friends with teachers over the support services that they need and the families who are stressed for various reasons been coping with mental health issues interesting support to care for their child a disability at home are now cut off from those services and facing economic distress and this this clearly is going to to mean to him to rise and even violence against children and women as of early may and estimated 77 percent of the world's children globally were under some form of home policy and we see that giving giving rise to violence including in europe if children don't have access to the usual services in their schools have their social networks how can we recognize when
2:11 pm
there is a problem at home. yeah i mean this is this is the big question for this hotlines are really important and we've got some good data coming out of your support the value of those hotlines in the u.k. the national domestic abuse hotline sought a 25 percent increase in calls and reports in spain during the last 2 weeks of august sort of the height of the lockdown 20 percent increase in reports of violence and the need for services in france 32 percent across france including 36 percent increase in the paris area 20 percent increase in reports in germany and in denmark for example you see combination calls for emergency accommodation in the 1st week of the stay home order doubles so so certainly having those shows open is important but equally as important is the availability of the social services to respond if you get
2:12 pm
a call and you need hope you can get on the phone and we can do it soon chad but that's not going to dress the more we just forms of violence and that's where you central services need to kick into place and to respond and do home visits of course would protect in personal equipments scarce because health systems are in urgent need of that equipment being deeming essential services social work and others is important but getting them out there is difficult and if you can send one message to governments here in europe on how they can best protect children during this time what would that be. yeah well one message maybe i would say 3 things i would say one is really think about what essential services you're going to designate beyond health and education and make sure some of those key social services are deemed essential strengthen your help lines and really make available positive parenting resources a lot of this violence is to stress shaking your child doing something that you
2:13 pm
wouldn't normally do and if we can try to help parents deal with that in some way that's going to be critical i think really addressing the online platforms is going to be important to more children are online than ever before and strengthen their protection online is going to be a really important partnership with private sector all right aaron greenberg from unicef joining us from geneva thank you so much thank you ok let's check in now on some other stories making news around the world the afghan government has promised to free 900 taliban prisoners on tuesday following a 3 day ceasefire with the insurgent group and the prisoner release as part of a peace deal which was signed with the us earlier this year taliban officials say they are considering an extension to the ceasefire hong kong leader kerry lamb says that a new security law planned by mainland china will not affect hong kong's rights and freedoms and pro-democracy supporters have sharply criticized the proposed legislation it is set to be approved by china's parliament this week macau casino
2:14 pm
tycoon stanley ho has died at the age of 98 he was known as the king of gambling he was born in hong kong and he made billions transforming neighboring macau from a sleepy portuguese colony to one of the world's biggest gambling hubs. a u.k. government minister has resigned to protest a road trip without a prime minister boris johnson's top aide dominic cummings made it during lockdown junior minister douglas ross said he did not accept cummings defense of his actions and that he could not stand behind the government to help defending him either. and bethlehem's church of the nativity has reopened after 2 months the church was closed in march after an outbreak of covered $1000.00 was discovered in the city only 50 people at a time will be allowed into the church visitors must wear face masks and observe social distancing. iceland has reopened bars and nightclubs after a 9 week coronavirus hiatus the country has been
2:15 pm
a world leader in testing for covert 19 and the government says it has the pandemic under control so when official permission was granted people headed to the dance floor with a bit of caution in their step. monday night in. for the 1st time in more than 2 months people could meet their friends out for a drink and some were even ready to show off their moves on the dance floor again. right the way down here and that it's not like i think it would be a real life like knowing. full well that. there were. mass testing and early tracing are being cited as the main reasons for iceland's relatively low rates of infection and only 10 people have died from covert 19 in the country. but as iceland's bars are allowed to reopen authorities will be keeping an eye on the situation earlier this month south korea had
2:16 pm
a spike in infections after night clubs were reopened their full bar owners for a sing of restrictions is a blessing part so for the stuff it's just like being born again it's been a hard period but i think we'll come out of this strong at least i hope so. before the bar is finally open those who were hoping to avoid iceland's bright nights and dance until the early hours under disco in lights might be disappointed 11 pm is close in time for now. the coronavirus crisis has severely dampened many consumers desire to shop that has had a catastrophic impact on the retail industry a survey by the german retail trade association shows that in the wake of the pentatonic nearly one in 3 non-food retailers is fighting for survival. saturday used to be shopping day but that doesn't seem to be the case any more.
2:17 pm
expensive it's airy here everything's changed to few passes by too few people too few potential customers. mark lined they were is touring the 65 or so shoe stores belonging to his family they've come back after the 4 shut down but the customers haven't. since we reopened on april the 20th we've done 40 to 90 percent less business in the same time last year depending on the location that's a very dramatic drop. not having enough customers is just one problem but the whole atmosphere is poor social distancing measures blocked off areas and queuing in front of stores all discouraging visitors from shopping even if money isn't the problem. romeo you know when we have the money but we're not spending it we don't go out to dinner or to
2:18 pm
a bar we're not going out to do any shopping either. it's just not any fun right now this doesn't feel normal yet to me as i have for america i used to buy more than i do these days but wearing a mask and sweating in the store i don't feel like doing that retailers are in a state of emergency where houses are full of stock unsold during lockdown winter boots and summer are a hard sell. no chance no one's going to buy them until probably october. instead they're selling what's in high demand disinfectant facemasks that's the shoe stores hottest new trend. the manager says she fears for her job but she understands why she's not getting customers yaman. as you do become more restrained in your shopping habits no one knows how long it will last how long the short time working measures will last it makes you shop more attentively.
2:19 pm
if business doesn't pick up by the summer there might be a wave of retail bankruptcies the more people lose their jobs the less they can buy a vicious circle recovery might still be on the cards if a 2nd wave of the virus can be prevented. with shops reopening again will we see the retail sector bounce back we ask the as an expert the digital retail world . unfortunately i do not think so we will never go back to. normal because consumers that will learn to drastically different behaviors are now relying on the line shopping they have and the payment they have learnt locally in the shop from home and i don't think that this is a temporary learning this is a permanent learning that will stay with us sports want to go fans are looking for to achieve battle between germany's top clubs byron munich faced 2nd place for us
2:20 pm
at dortmund tonight a win for biron would see them extend their lead at the top of the table to 7 points essentially sealing their 8th consecutive championship but if dortmund manage to come out on top they'll close the gap to just a single point and blow the bundesliga title race wide open. this is eerily familiar territory for dortmund to have into the last 2 editions of declassified with the championship on the line and the cost of the truck i don't see scored a hat trick in 2086 complete i think that was followed by a 5 mill demolition in 2090. after several mornings a white. it's lucy in 5 his job to convince his troops things will be different this time with no fans in the stadium to witness. doubt by any shorn of mine is already at a very high level but as i said much after every team has its weaknesses and
2:21 pm
strengths that's for sure and you don't have to talk about it any more than buying his bond all the other way a day or 2 we won here a year ago in the super cup too and we want to continue in this direction does a fish tank up goldman has struck since the last time that were crushed before christmas since selling holland slotted into the lineup the along blacks have taken 27 of a possible 30 points on offer but now comes the hard part breaking the team that has begun up on them when it matters most. do you don't want to munch of the to dortmund thing have made 2 really good editions this winter has to have a stone to good reinforcements and players who bring with them a strong mentality. and one of them is and right chance for a minute and the other is willing hall and in attack who is enormously good in a finishing school sr this is
2:22 pm
a team that no doubt belong with these very best in europe to you now to know best and what you know i hope. dortmund into the game 4 points behind by and knowing a loss would force the county and i consecutive title to divide us. davies force reporter davis fun joining us now from outside the door and stadium hi davis we can see it's pretty quiet there behind you it must be a different atmosphere compared to what you normally get around this match. yeah that's precisely the case in fact the people cycling in jogging by the stadium at the moment probably think it's a regular tuesday and may not expecting there to be a big one to seek a showcase later this evening now there will be a larger police presence as kickoff approaches but considering that dortmund fans have heeded the requests from city officials and from police so far and staying
2:23 pm
home to watch the game on their sofas not many fan incidents are expected this evening david what about the match itself i mean recent history hasn't been kind to dortmund when they face iron in the bundesliga so how do things look for them this time around well both teams are coming into this game in terrific form in fact neither team is dropped as both teams have dropped only points in only one game so far in 220 and have won both of their games since the one is that you were started earlier this month so this is expected to be a very top showcase for the bundesliga which is great for them considering since all the other european leagues are still on a coronavirus hiatus they're the only show in town and if biron win is it safe to say that they will win the title as well well as you mentioned environment do come up with
2:24 pm
a victory they'll go 7 points clear atop the blunders they could table so it's very likely that they'll secure their 8 consecutive title but i wouldn't count bruce who don't win out in this game they have airlink holland a player they didn't have the 1st time around when they met in the 1st half of this even who is also in terrific form and julian brandt the midfielder for brazil government said that the team is going to do everything they can to make sure that they secure the 3 points tonight gary davis where will you be watching the game tonight. well as only $300.00 people are allowed in the stadium i'm going to be sitting outside and probably watching on a device that i have with me but most but and most of the people will be watching it at home since they also most fans will not be able to gather in bars either even though they're reopening across the city all right looking forward to the big match tonight give us one up there in dortmund for us thank you finally keep calm and carry on we have the story for you of a mountain bear and
