lives on and reminds her of a farmer peaceful youth in srebrenica. since china imposed the new security law many people in hong kong see its special status and democratic governance from her mind. it's becoming ever more dangerous to protest. oh for years now everyone has joined fellow members of his party on the 1st of july to mark hong kong's handover to china's fruit but everything changed last week it isn't uncommon for such areas more peaceful protests to have 200 plus police to search a dozen office i guess this will be the new normal you may never see the picture of me then hong kong is on the street ok not because we are content and not because. we are now happy with the government it's because now we have to upgrade now

character because we were out there was a thought. this was the 1st protest seems to new security law was put in place was to see offenders go to prison for life for suppression. several parties have now decided to dispense some leading activist have fled but everything and his party are not about to follow suit. because if for a political party to bow down now what's it to safeguard to do wrestle hong kong psychologically. oh most off was prepared to go to prison for a long haul and we're not going to treat walk we have to do it for you but depends on the level of suppression that we are going to face in the future there will be short term mortification and transformation of activism in hong kong there's no doubt. in sister law a fact only

management of n.g.o.s and are all the nice asians in hong kong. even though it's do it clear how the security will be implemented activists and efficacious here will have to be where they face a rocky road. brazil has had the 2nd highest number of reported pulled a virus cases and. the president himself has tested positive but the true number of infections is probably much higher. nothing is the same since the pandemic at rio de janeiro's 5 ella's adults are out of work children are home from school and cramped unhygenic living conditions greatly increase the risk of infection. i'm scared my children will catch the virus we don't always have running water most of the time we have to haul it from far

away and the children don't have any space to play. experts estimate the number of unreported infections in the favelas to be extremely high that's why local residents have started counting the cases themselves. many of those who died from chronic virus in our fellows didn't show up in the health authority statistics we know several examples in our circle of friends. with the help of local residents volunteers are creating a log of cases in the bore real neighborhood. they use whatsapp to collect data on the latest infections not registered by local authorities. this state has been completely absent here ever since the fellows were built in rio we always have to reinvent ourselves and find new ways to survive. the exact number of corunna infections in brazil is not known too little testing is being carried out leandra nevus had typical covert 900 symptoms but was never tested. i left our
7:25 am
neighborhood so i wouldn't infect anyone. i slept on the beach at it for a week and a half and thought about my neighbors the whole time it's social status in brazil that appears to dictate whether someone is officially infected or not the real numbers tell a very different story. as the coronavirus spread in germany romanians and roma living here say they were subjected to ever more hostility and projects. they're tired. mona has been a social worker in berlin for 8 years her main responsibility is caring for romanian families many of them roma the fact that one of insolence mother tongue is romanian helps a lot she says the discrimination against roma is not new but now exclusion and
7:26 am
accusations are rising amid the pandemic aiming to hide me minority group that i work with is the roma. as i say it's a fact that they are an object of discrimination. most people don't like to see them around here and also in my country romania. now in these times of crisis when everyone is scared and under a lot of pressure you know people are looking for a scapegoat more than ever. these are in points and that it's officially began. we meet a man we'll call vasili a roma from the village of fun to me. he's been in germany for 5 years and now for the 1st time he's found a decent job he uses a pseudonym so he won't risk jeopardizing his job hold on yes i experienced discrimination and yes since corona it has gotten worse that's the way it is at work but also when i go shopping for example at the supermarket i'm treated worse

than others go along. in this berlin district several blocks of apartment buildings where mainly roma live together in cramped quarters were sealed off and quarantined for 2 weeks a total of more than $100.00 people across 7 houses here tested positive neighbors think it was a wise decision to quarantine the entire area isn't there out until 10 at night i don't know if that's allowed i thought they had a curfew. over talk to them all scrunched. the roma feel that others treat them with suspicion and some say it is racist. people look for a guilty party and the weak can't defend themselves they wouldn't dare blame other groups imagine how the jews or turks would react if they were treated like this they have a strong lobby but the politicians wouldn't dare say things like this about them in public. accusations prejudices and
