a matter how vocal germany's coronavirus reproduction rights jumped to 2.8 amidst a huge outcry at a maid packing plant in the northwest of the country that number means that one infected person is on average infecting almost 3 others more than 1300 workers have now tested positive for corona virus at this one factory with 7000 more people now forced to quarantine in the surrounding area. coronavirus cases in germany had long been in decline but here at the toonie as meat packing plant and vicious law the virus is making a comeback over 1300 employees have tested positive for covert 196500
7:02 am
workers and family members have been sent into quarantine. the factory has been shot at north rhine-westphalia state premia i mean lash it visited the site on sunday. guns not on this trial and in north rhine-westphalia infection numbers have gone down by over 75 percent since we reopened but here in the greatest law districts we have a concentrated explosion in the numbers which are closely linked to the meat industry and it is not the 1st time that meat packing plants have become hotbeds of infection in germany the latest incident has intensified the debate over health and safety of the workers many of the employees come from eastern europe and live and work in cramped conditions their plight might now have wider implications. of this also of this can be found at this specific company and so it is still the

7:04 am
neighboring e.u. countries such as rumania poland or of bulgaria and in many cases they are not employed directly by the companies by sub contractors which are they then are more exposed to exploitations and they live in very low wages they also often live in crammed dorms and that's of course then a perfect breeding ground for the virus the thing is now that this is not a new problem it's been an germany's raid there for quite some time and authorities have been quite slow to act germany's meat industry is one of the most profitable in the country so these companies are also very powerful and they say that they have to rely on these up contractors in order to keep germany's needs so cheap it's such a concentrated hotspot how was this affecting germany's coronavirus numbers in well

protesters blocking a 10 days from getting access. they don't need correspondent stephanie months was at the trump rally in tulsa i spoke with him earlier and i asked him both where the trump support is really blocking us from getting into the venue and i also asked how a campaign by uses figure in this story can tell you that no protesters were able to block anything here i was standing on denver street right in front of the arena where the rally happened yesterday and nobody was blocked the secret service police and a half dozen other agencies they made sure that nobody blocked entry for some supporters to come to the arena so no that's bogus nobody blocked some supporters from entry not to take talk apparently there was a massive amount of talk users and social media users young americans who managed to reserve tickets for them or are it's repeat they are sleepy that
7:10 am
they would come and had never actually planned to come here and that might have triggered the campaign charm campaign to say we have a $1000000.00 requests for tickets is that. they are of course nixing there's no they're shooting back and say like no they have sophisticated systems to filter out bogus telephone numbers and orders is that for us so that's wasn't it they weren't at any way cybele blocked but that least of course then the question ok so why didn't 900000 or even more people show up here now it's reported it was about 7000 people who actually made it into the arena. it's going to be an interesting 2 days to sort this out as we all know that donald trump likes big numbers and he didn't perform at all in terms of big numbers yesterday so what it does if nothing else to set the stage for months to go until the presidential election what one that can be
