alarmed because the hot summer is jeopardizing not only the foundations of homes in the siberian permafrost. you can see the heat shimmer even now at the end of summer a few weeks ago they had set a new record 38 degrees celsius that's the highest temperature ever recorded within the arctic circle people here are usually proud of a different experience their town is one of 2 places that claim to be the coldest on earth. were used to the cold people here can't handle that sort of heat everyone bought electric fans they were totally sold out here people had ice cream and cold drinks we aren't prepared for these conditions. swam and worked it was fine even in the winter when it's minus 60 degrees centigrade here we eat ice cream so working when it was 38 degrees wasn't

half the official minimum wage they've been doing it for decades but now the border is closed because of the global health emergency gustava from nicaragua accounts himself is one of the lucky ones he's officially resident in costa rica his wife is not but officials tested them both for the coronavirus. 'd the situation is worrying i've been tested twice thank god both results were negative but 2 of my colleagues got infected so now we have to be tested again and. dozens of undocumented workers tested positive at this border pineapple farm only around a 5th are registered in the costa rican social security system. they earn less than $400.00 a month working 12 hours a day for many it's the only way they can feed their families back home in nicaragua where conditions can be much worse the costa rican foundation

areas for peace is critical of the poor treatment of the nicaraguan migrant workers it says exploitation is widespread but i did notice everybody knows about the smuggling networks everyone knows the woman who rents her garden hose to the migrants so they can watch their featured but they all know how much it costs. that they all know about the taxi driver who will tell the migrants when the police have gone or when they're taking a lunch break the coronavirus has just uncovered that reality you know this woman that migrants paid trafficking networks as much as $200.00 to smuggle them across the border. kusturica does not publish the nationalities of coronavirus patients but many blame the net correct u.n. workers for the growing number of covert 19 cases as well as raising tensions the pandemic is highlighting the precarious conditions enjoyed by my clients forced to

cross central america's borders to find work. during the coronavirus pandemic dancing has been banned in many venues clubs remain shut including in berlin so the scene is looking for alternatives legal ones. berlin's club scene is world famous but corona is threatening its existence. clubs like this one have been empty for months. a vaccine is the only hope for many owners busy in it we've already seen examples of brawn showing that it really doesn't work in south korea they thought they had the pandemic under control because they had hardly any new
