to the middle and i'm good looking but the 2nd season is only. 16 about the environment suitable society and it's not about a little moment when the going is going to circle the election and look for. the kill. the only good sense to. me. this is state of the news africa coming up on the program p.p.a. for personal profit from side medical workers and got all contracting of it on the job because there's not enough partakes of equipment but the braised to supply the demand is being undermined p.p. eventful hospital staff busy ending up on the black market. and the traditional roadside snack that's become a source of sustenance to mice means is now

a staple for hard up turold malawians during the pandemic. want to welcome to news africa many medical work is in goddess still have to do their jobs without adequate protection there is a shortage of people or personal protective equipment in the country and more than 2000 medical workers have been infected with the coronavirus since the outbreak began the government and private donors have ramped up if it's to provide the much needed but as one investigation revealed some hospital staff have been sending the people on the black market. here at this clinic in central gonna health. and his colleague caring for patients m h 1000 pandemic but often without their required protective medical clothing

defensively to run out of supplies several months ago exposing where case today the risk of infections they do lack he says they face mask he's wearing hasn't been changed for weeks before this one says count on me just useful nice for all of that i was new to you know how to teach ins he went to a school i was watching these i wasn't aware if i was in the way. i want to oblige another people comply with their governments but also sometimes i want to wait but i don't hold it to the needs of my 2000 health webcasts in ghana have been infected with covert to 19 i cleese 6 have died health union once more protection for gang members. we needed to be protected something we can pass health and my sister if it's pauses in the house.

we don't get why didn't we just it's there we got that disease let's look at. it. the government has already taxed look at factories to produce more protective equipment for health away case but today equipment doesn't seem to be reaching the facilities and that needs this hospital has come under scrutiny after on the cover generally it's just kind of edge that's healthy because they were selling p p s health and i was calling for measures to prevent such incidents in the future. when this is it and don't just complain about it you know. yes. it has to be. it is it. will be taken to the dish you just didn't.

get in. the way. and his colleagues which support from the government the hoop they don't get infected before it's come. now as you heard in our report the if it's just supply the much needed p.p. is being undermined by hospital because some of them have been identified as saving the people onto the black market now that story was uncovered by one of janet gunness famous investigative journalist he goes by the pseudonym and that's an ass i began by asking him just how he came about the story. we started with the fairy for a story we'd looked at kill and after that then in covered clear we decided to identify fic your so that people were using to treat called while doing this we got some information from some hospitals that this items that were being do need to

have found themselves on duping market we decided to look at that too it was insiders within the hospital and that means who wrote to us and told us that the thing something on thought could be happening in this hospital in the indeed we are glad that when we look at it we found this is going on. right now i know that even your investigation one of your journalists posed as a somebody by the p.p. eve from one of these hospital workers who was setting it but who have the medical staff been sending the eat. the p.p. is being sold to people who are there to buy it so people need to be for the own personal protection and those fools who needed it to sell it out there in the market they key thing is that. it is so bad i buy no propos perhaps you

know what as times as we speak to people. in the tape who are selling their p.p.s. have all been suspended according to the hospital and there wasn't a whole investigation that went on but it was a villa for sale for people who wanted it for your personal use all in there you had a private hospital and you wanted to use it. unless you give us a sense off do you do you have any idea of how much p.p. hospitals might have lost out is it likely that this is happening at a grand scale. well look at rich hospital i can confirm that it was happening at the grand scale there isn't is this simple that you know b.b.c. . has died on how much you should back out almighty ramblings that people were dealing with told us that they had

a large quantities but you know you have to balance the meat for workers to use it and your story so we decided to baghdad members that we thought were not affects the intent how appreciative and puts their lives of the real people their health wake us up to risk so yes we need we've got a lot of calls to buy large quantities but we opted to do less quantities because we knew that that was definitely affecting the lives of work as who people what put the life on the line to see if to see if people again one indication was that at a particular point the hospital then decided to even produce the. freeze masks and it was sad that even the farris back of production somebody sold to us a 100 pieces i mean it tells you that level at which those people willing to say where we're going and the reason why that was for those type that it production was

because of the fact that they do need that once had finished they had emptied it through the seal and sure there was what they decided to be ingenious by doing something new so indeed it was a very high skill all right that is the investigative journalist in the last i remember. is of course has to conceal his identity because of the nature of his so i thank you for being out al program today and us. field mice have always been a traditional seasonal snack and allow and that's even when food was bountiful in the southern african country however and the impact of culvert 19 this unique delicacy has become an unlikely savior in rural areas roasted field mice are a popular malawian delicacy vendors usually sell my cement next to this busy highway between the commercial hub of blantyre and the capital the long. burnet simian is

a mouse hunter now during the coronavirus spend demick his small trade has gained new importance. since the start of 19 life has been difficult but as a result we rely on mice hunting and selling so that we can sustain our livelihood and to do what is needed. traditionally village children hunt the mice smoking them out of their holes their been cooked salted or dried some allowance choose to eat mice but at the moment for others like simians family it is the only meat they can get. heard of the. day that. most times we rely on my husband when he goes out and when times are hard we were mice to supplement our diet because we cannot afford to buy meat teach the

lack of money now when they see my busy. mice meat my conjure up ideas of unsafe or unsanitary food but local health authorities don't discourage their consumption. the favor your community is able to take my so you are able to rise is one of. the. protests so afraid to take whatever. you get. the minute amount of protests. more than 50 percent of malawians already lived below the poverty line before the fire is struck the country has had under 6000 official cases of covert 1000 up to now but the economy people's livelihoods has been the big victim. long after the virus has disappeared mice may still be an

important food source on the household table after decades of civil war mogadishu is recovering and seeing a building across the city buildings are being constructed but there is often little planning involved so one young somali architect say is now trying to make a difference newly built houses and hotels somalia is slowly rebuilding itself. one of the people involved in the efforts is a 30 year old architect all my day again but persuading clients to create beautiful buildings is not always easy. designing architecture and architecture in somalia is 6 grimly complicated because the people doesn't see that as a need or a necessity but is actually very important. before the civil war mogadishu was dotted with pox theatres and libraries many buildings in the italian colonial period. but today the city doesn't have many public places so the beaches

where many go to relax and socialize the city is still facing frequent bombings and attacks by al-shabaab and when rebuilding the city most people are looking for what's practical not what's beautiful. for me cultural identity should be preserved as be they their city so for me good going back to the roots of somalia learn about the tradition culture of the firm regions and then try to redesign the spaces according to that will help the people to feel that they belong to the space and that they species their own his parents left for italy before the civil war and that's where he grew up on modern studied architecture both in italy and hong kong skills and experiences he now brings back to somalia. when we designed these days to maybe it was 2 months cause related entity to. give us a touch of. it we teach at the same time the contemporary of the design so

as we can see here he used the traditional my we use which is that this character from one to the small human. his passion for traditional somali decide is also showing a book he recently or 3rd. part of his mission to make a difference by building new things and still remembering the old. and that's it for today. why does the very muddy tires and drums we deliver urgent lifesaving boxes we give our everything to reach those who need us the most every box feeding their futures. boxes full of our hope of life saving fruit in the sun much more

down roads with no names we feel asleep to live a relentless you know promise to make every delivery special. not just next day but every day. thousands of children still waiting for their delivery sponsor books today so together we can deliver the future is. reopening the theaters and opera houses of europe is a challenging task in times of corona we'll check in with moscow's famous borzoi feodor and have a look at these stories. a new museum in amsterdam explores how human experience is all 3rd by new media and technologies with experimental multisensory installation.

and 2 italian photographers publish an ode to the beauty and diversity of the humble chicken. well it's proof once again that reopening measures must proceed very carefully indeed just days after moscow's legendary boys choice theater reopened in grand style with a production of just their favorite is don carlos starring among others russian austrian diva and on the thread it was unfortunately abruptly canceled when one of the soloists tested positive for the coronavirus so much for that but the company's ballet went ahead with its season premiere. back on stage after forced break of almost 5 months this is lunch ourselves 1st performance since the corona locked down together with. over.

40 dancers from moscow's legendary bolshoi russia's number one theatre and ballet. the 2 soloists are overwhelmed to be back on stage. and i suppose. it's them for us it's a huge thrill to get out of our apartments again and just be creative. just a little bit of that which we have a jam packed schedule of performances so all the dancers even the carter ballet are rehearsing several pieces a day. for the one that ballet for characters in search of a plot the bolshoi decided to forgo the opulence set this in an effort to have a sphere of people as possible involved in the production. with over 1000000 people infected russia currently ranks 4th in the world for covert 1000 cases. the danger

of contagion is ever present. theater staff know it could be months before a vaccine is made available and shalom with those from on the one hand we're overjoyed that we can kick off this season is the gritty of our own troops there but we're also very concerned. because there virus is still an issues and we have to deal with the situation but stayed with. it. for example the engagements of 4 choreographers who came in from abroad for the opening piece with borders between russia and the e.u. still closed getting to moscow wasn't easy was it i'm not sure what exactly happened but one day they called us and said come and then suddenly here we were. all 4 segments of 4 characters in search of a plot deal with the corona lockdown especially with ideas surrounding longing and

closeness but also physical proximity which has taken on a whole new meaning for the dancers cheering the pandemic. that is we artists belong on stage we've missed it even just thinking about stepping out onto the stage gives me goosebumps rush in misery on the situation just means we're alive so we're living again julia. the bolshoi theatre is daring to live again despite the harsh reality of the phantom. over to amsterdam now and while the city is museums were closed during knock down a privately funded start up museum devoted to new media was busy preparing to open its doors as soon as regulations allowed for the next museum is meant to fill a gap in the cultural landscape with multisensory immersive installations by international new media artists but also by scientists and technologists and its

inaugural show shifting proximities well run for about the next year. powerful effects multimedia and interactive. amsterdam's new next museum is devoted entirely to digital art. the museum is founder of and hosting and developed the concept to her a few years ago she found the ideal location for her project in the north of amsterdam a former television studio. the marketing expert was able to win over a number of investors and make her dream a reality. i think we are totally obsessed with the future and with technology. like with everything that's new and technology is evolving so rapidly what we want to do is take. the artistic science and mold them together

music and really give you the experience of the future and also about the topics of the future that you continuum installation by environmental artist ty speer staker visualizes the subterranean 2. unification between 2 trees 6 the simulation reacts to c o 2 output vibrations and temperature changes caused by the festers. did you do or are it is a field that's emerging not only because it enables people to understand science and other data streams a lot easier so do you are just used to our new generation. z. of dog or an exhibition is called shifting proximities. is fruitless if you are. middle of the. sandwich of well with this year of size or 6 or so you know end of story. it's really you know it goes beyond interactivity really it really takes issue with easy touches me. not that many

places in the world where you can actually experience out like. these solutions can't predict how the future will really look like. visitors to amsterdam's new museum could already immerse themselves in potential visions of a future. and melissa holroyd joins me to talk about this daring venture this is really fascinating melissa because it seems to me that this exhibition as a visitor that you're almost agreeing to be a bit of a guinea pig and you know with some of the installations here at least the next museum office people more than just your average multisensory experience here visitors can be protectionists in a speculative experience with which looks to the future it really stands on the edge of what we know and what we don't know and it asks you do you like what you see do you like where you are headed i mean in terms of where technique where technology is heading yeah that's right i mean the exhibition space in general

looks at the times we're living in and focuses on art that uses modern tools to explore these times one of the most interesting pieces and shifting proximity is of peace. called biometric mira it was put together by siphon artist and body architect lucy mcrae together with action research in human computer interaction dotted kneels vow to realize you have title 3 jobs like the algorithm analyzes you and basically tells you who you are your age your personality your gender it also spits out of more beautified version of you are more say mean and i think you can imagine what type of version of these the set up is deceptively warm and spongy there are questions on the side of the mirror and the whole thing is a very sort of tan and warm color it draws you in perhaps in the same way that technology draws us in bought the results of this type of technology of facial recognition can be also quite brutal this is it sounds incredibly intense it sounds

almost invasive and in some ways perhaps a bit overwhelming yeah it is intense and there are rooms in between that sort of act as sort of among other things this type of palate cleanser as they often visit is a break between the installations another installation and i think is very interesting it explores the relationship between people and the natural environment it's called habitat it's by mixed media artist hellene blanken and uses scans of organic are to fix to create a game like meditative environments the piece is responsive to the movement of visitors who can be seen reflected on the museum's floor with the environmental problems that we're facing habitat is not just a beautiful piece it's also a very loaded piece ok so the there definitely is the critical fight to the fix it's very very critical in the exhibition pieces unpacked today's issues and they do this by appealing to the experience of the visit is to spirit by appealing to

the emotions of the visitors so through their experience through actually going through this thing they become a part of the technology. yes so. so so with things like facial recognition and the environment we can understand them more readily by having the actual experience itself ok well let's hope that we can actually get to answer damn physically to see this shifting proximities on at the next museum for about the next year thanks very much for bringing us that story and the whole roid . well most people start raising chickens in order to have fresh eggs and if you've ever been lucky enough to do this you'll know that they are indeed endlessly fascinating to watch and chickens can have quite a personality to italian photographers were also struck by the incredible variety of chickens and their new book is an ode to love between any 2 birds of a feather. proud

self-assured and with elegant feathers. these words describe the ornamental chickens displayed in coffee table books by photographers matteo trying to leave and marino monkey from milan they both openly admit they're fascinated with chickens and have even acquired a few of their own. their pets could just as easily struck the catwalk. it was a love at 1st sight i never would have expected it for you chickens make very good motifs for their very photogenic and great and. they know right away what they're supposed to do but you don't have to explain it to them. they need hardly any make up from our experience in the advertising and fashion industries chickens are the best top models and the most natural. and they also seem to be the

most patient they obediently follow whatever directions the photographers give them . for their latest project. posed to chicken each from one of a total 60 breeds as lovers chicken in love as the snappy though somewhat tongue in cheek title. the rooster may protect his hands but he doesn't have that great a reputation as a romantic lover. in the roosters the worst example and absolutely not a role model when it comes to romance. oh fine doesn't do anything he doesn't produce anything the way and it dominates hundreds of hands when that was definitely not politically correct any more but it works like a ford c r r. r r r. well biology being what it is we'll go now to physics and the celestial realm every year london's
