for future protests on the street on social media or in public political debates that are going to go on the older generation can help us work out how to get through to the politicians how we can really bring about change after all they have a lot of experience i'm always happy to learn from older people and we can show them that we are still full of hope and that we want things to change and number one. hannah wants climate policies to change but sustainability is also important to her in her daily life. if i was among kind of we'd all stop flying there's simply no reason to fly anywhere inside europe you can go everywhere by train and you can always go by bike and not by car. for 14 years now and gallica macca has been only using one mode of transportation her bike she coordinates a neighborhood environmental group as part of grandma's against the right. sized.

as our job to my neighbors together to bring everybody together to think about the climate to give people a piece that urban nature has to take responsibility for our town and to make sure it becomes more colorful and green and that we protect and preserve it. that means doing things like watering and caring for trees in the neighborhood and clearing up parks beautifying urban gardens. if i'm just a little cog in this machine but i can turn lots of other cocks as well and i think this is really a way to make a difference and be powerful and that makes me feel good. must. go through the grammas and the teenagers are working together to develop ideas for the future they're united by the dream of a sustainable healthy planet. it's to france now that country has set another

10:08 am
maximum alert you to a surgeon could get 1000 cases but many byron restaurant workers feel they are being unfairly targeted or really are unjustly punished stigmatized fingers are automatically being pointed at us bars and restaurants we are responsible for the rising coated cases and must say it's nonsense how and why are we responsible for this when we do everything to comply with the rules or. people don't party or don't go out to bars they will do it at home i don't really see the difference between a bar in someone's home. around the country other cities are also bracing for tougher restrictions in the capital paris buys in restaurants will have to shut to 10 pm french health authorities have defended the new measures saying they are the only way to prevent hospitals from becoming overburdened. we're joined now by john campbell one of you tube's more famous trauma virus researchers and analysts many
10:09 am
of us been following him since the pandemic began thanks so much for coming in john is the spike we're seeing in marsay and other european big cities is a result phenomenon or is this europe wide. it's pretty well you of why i mean at the moment spain is it is leading the increasing cases then france and then the u.k. is increasing quite a bit now but there are notable exceptions like italy so it is a bit patchy but there was a summary by washington state university in seattle just a couple of days ago and they describe your poseur gene generally so we're seeing a general trend in europe of increases that we are seeing particular countries increasing at a more rapid rate and of course what we need to do is learn from the mistakes of the countries that are increasing at a more rapid rate and try and use that information to keep the levels of spread down in other countries such as germany and the u.k. where the levels are currently low or. a lot of people talking about
10:10 am
a 2nd wave being a possibility we need to define our terms of course is a 2nd wife the start of one. it really depends on how you define it i mean what really matters is the pragmatic definition and in a 2nd wave or an increase in cases the point is we have a sustained increase in cases from day to day from week to week and that is exactly what we're seeing in parts of europe and we are seeing it at different levels as well so as we've said spain and france at high levels u.k. and germany still increasing albeit at lower levels probably would call it a 2nd wave personally because obviously quite high numbers of cases knock in march april may then we went down in the summer there's a lot of reasons for that and now we're going back up again but i really think it's important to learn some of the lessons from these other countries that are that are doing well in the countries that aren't doing so on doing so well at the moment ok what would be some of those lessons if you if you would john well it's a it's
10:11 am
a very well it's a nice app is working very well we're in the house started with the op yesterday in the u.k. which is really quite a sad situation that has taken so well and it's really wasn't complacent over the summer because italy suffered so badly in the 1st wave and it was the 1st country really to suffer that i don't think if it got on the lessons of the. what we might call this 1st wave whereas other countries took their foot off the off the accelerator a little bit italy maintained its 14 days quarantine it didn't really encourage tourism the way spain did a lot of the resurgence in cases in spain now from tourism so it was minimal and italy used its testing capacity wisely so all countries have limited testing capacity that it's really targeted to test trace and isolate the contacts of people that was symptomatic the contacts of people who were asymptomatic whether it was work family or social and the other thing they did in italy was the identify specific infection drives and one of those was dancing in nightclubs oh that was a band on the 70 the. aerosols that are probably responsible there but we have time
10:12 am
for 100 questions what about the mutation some people have been saying is is how dangerous is that was happening with the mutation that there's an ongoing debate about this and this virus mutates all the time we know it mutates all the time but the consensus of scientific opinion in the u.k. the moment is that although the virus is mutating and although this is useful for what we call phylogenetic analysis we can work out where a particular virus train came from by tracing back the mutations the consensus of opinion is at the moment this is not dramatically increasing or reducing how transmissible the virus is or the pathogenicity of the virus how likely the virus is no course of a disease but that's always a possibility it could happen and so for now things are now ready but the consensus for now john will take that is good i guess ok ok also to his own answer that's
10:13 am
right john campbell thanks so much for coming on and keep up your work there for all of us thanks very much but rough. let's get you round up now of some the other developments in the pandemic israel has toughened its coronavirus measures after a 2nd long down failed to produce new infections new rules will close most workplaces shutter markets and further limit prayers and demonstrations britain has reported its highest number of new cases in a day just over 6600 the government announcing sweeping new measures earlier in the week designed to curb the spread of the virus and the number of people to have died from govan in mexico is now past 75000 that countries seen more than 715000 infections. and the rio de janeiro has delayed next year's world famous carnival celebrations the event which falls millions of visitors was a take place in february but has been postponed indefinitely due to the pandemic brazil's grappling with the world's 2nd deadliest outbreak. let's get your brief now and some of the other stories in the news today

a coronavirus risk area thermal imaging cameras were used to check temperatures at the turnstiles and fans at distance from the joe. european football's governing body you a fire has been criticised for allowing the return of so many supporters in light of rising infection rates in europe you have a president alexander schaeffer and defended the pilot project as being safe. measures. there's not. a question of health risks for defense we will of course not allow us or anybody else to that i guess into any political discussion about that. the easiest thing or political campaign the easiest thing for us would be not to do it. it's always the easiest thing to do anything just a but then a political discussion be avoided let's talk about that now with mark meadows from
10:23 am
sports margaret tissues ever it looks like when you listen to schaeffer and there those responsible thought the benefits of returning to the stadium far outweighed the risks i mean basically saying at least we tried something we didn't let it drag on for more and more months with no fans in the stadiums and yes it was a pilot project and that was why it sort of worked because it was a one off game that they could sort of play about around with if we're honest out of the 4 titles by end of wellness year the super cup is the least important so it's something they could kind of uses an experiment and as we can see you know the fans were certainly didn't seem to sort of work but it was a gamble but instead it was worth taking because they want to do something because football without fans is really football but it became political very quickly there were a lot of responses right out of the starting blocks were there yeah i mean before the game had the flick the buying coach he wasn't very happy about playing the game
10:24 am
in budapest he didn't understand why they were having to go to an area that needs a coronavirus risk areas far as jim is concerned after the game given they won he sort of changed these 2 little bit and then the bye and hadn't played in a stadium with famines since march when the coronavirus really began to hit but there have been games here in germany it's not not not that size not 50000 no one in the book is that you came back last weekend and some games had about 8500 fans there but by and weren't allowed to have fans for their 1st win of the game because of rising cases in munich so this was the 1st game where fans were not for a long time 400 flick and after the game kind of fell actually it was good to have that feeling of back he said it was good to have this atmosphere it was more like football but he had a note of caution as well for the fans he said i hope everyone who returns to germany stays in good health ok this was an experiment right it was a 1st of its kind. this level of fans returning how are we going to judge whether this was a success or whether it was the wrong move i think it's probably too early to say i
10:25 am
don't think now you a foot will think about bringing this amount of fans back to say a normal champions league week because the games all the way around the continent the sort of control they'll probably be problems at a match somewhere at least for the want match they can kind of check everything and make sure the fans are doing as they were meant to. lead the way with fans throughout this debate so that the you can continue repeating having fan stadiums maybe you think maybe it's possible in european competition to what do you think moving forward fans want to see what do you see happening are we going to see larger games like this is the bundesliga going to continue if we see numbers increasing if we see infection rates rising and obviously there's pressure on politicians to say to football authorities look this can't continue but if there's no clear link between what's happening in stadiums and rising cases then football continue to say look we're doing our jobs with socially distancing the fans the
10:26 am
fans have got masks if you want to go to bars and restaurants and sit pretty close to each other we can kind of more easily control where people sit in a stadium and make sure they are far away from each other and football will die without fans mark thanks so much for coming on all this. let's get your minder now of our top stories this hour the fridays for future school climate strikes resume today around the world organizers say the scaled down demonstrations will take place and blind west friend of ours restrictions on distancing the pandemic meant that the weekly rallies called by swedish team grades in 2 words had to be held on law. and france's government is warning that it could be forced to reimpose more drastic restrictions after the country reported a daily record of $16000.00 new coven cases in 24 hours the government fears health services could be overwhelmed with more than 6000 people currently hospitalized with the growing markets. that's your news update don't forget there's always more
