territories leader kerry lam credited the new law with returning peace to the territory. oh you some of you over the past months an indisputable fact is that our society has returned to peace our country's national security is protected in hong kong and our citizens can again exercise their rights and liberties in accordance with the law provides the young. now many argue it is that same law which is making life hard especially for pro-democracy activists in the city correspondent for the cong speaks to 2 who survived being shot by police during protests last year. don't shout at a protester the 1st in hong kong government's demonstration and the city's history and the chinese through a life changing moment for the 18 year old student 20 keep he was shot in the chest
3:33 pm
during a protest on chinese national day last october a call that shocked by the police nearly took his flight as he was last only a few centimeters from his heart. one door was shut and came to a lake a white many protesters including myself. well prepared to make sacrifices and even get wounded but when we took to the street. we saw what i thought of losing my life in this movement. but i was lucky enough to survive the gunshot. so you know it's almost time died or function. yes i'm shocked that triggered school strikes now one year later but it's only a struggle in what is more the injuries but also 3 criminal charges by the hong kong government which has sent him behind bars for up to 7 years and other student

protests to chop up kwan may face the same sentence he's also among those shots with life around stuff these pills can barely is his face a campaign having his spine is fractured a kidney and part of his liver removed trauma looms over his everything life attempted robbery obstructing police and the state for the last 30 years to 22 year old be sorrowful at court 3 months why why are. we ok the police officer didn't warn me you know it's a reasonable for him to use the most lethal weapon immediately even though i was unarmed i've been so traumatized that i dare not pass by the shooting scene again and i often cried i can't stand for long periods of time and have to go to the hospital whenever the pain gets to one bearable. who is justified firing life well that's a self defense wall came in child caught it excessive force home close call to

prove to privates prosecution files by an opposition lawmaker over the officer who shot child but the justice minister took a rare move to intervene at the french request the case is that child is now planning to sue and is are equally against the police don't eat the saying but they all thought he rejected his legal aid tap occasion. by claiming the gunshot reasonable the authorities found out to bring what they call rioters to justice more than $10000.00 have been arrested and over them were prosecuted at the same time not a single police officer in the best prosecuted but i think despite numerous might. seem to manifest the intolerance against dissidents what we protesters do is team to be wrong the authorities sleeplessness troublemakers so when a protester my right to speak up will be suppressed even more severely.
3:36 pm
the stakes are even higher now as people can be jailed for their speech under the national security law. but i believe the movement isn't over yet. it's just continuing in another form. the students feel hopeless just as the pro-democracy movement to find their way out in pursuance of justice they will try every means. to free to do so. next for it appears there are too many prisoners and not enough prisons in fact there are twice as many people to 140000 than the facilities can hold which means overcrowded prisons and it also means that children juveniles are often placed with the adults with very few resources to help them cope. and you go
3:37 pm
what these young people's futures should not be over and that's the view of the pro bowl watty who's pushing for better ways to deal with indonesia's juvenile offenders. she began working in forensic psychology in 2007 combining her interests in mental health and law she now works with child inmates in indonesian prisons like this one in john bunn it's a general population facility with no special provisions for minors except for the help provided by justi provo watty and other. children who have problems with the law have many psychological issues. they should be given special assistance but most indonesian prisons did not have psychologists on staff. so those in charge of these kids should 1st try to understand why they are frustrated or angry. secondly like all children they need activities to keep them busy and at the end of
3:38 pm
what i see. john buying prison was built to accommodate around 200 inmates today around 800 crowded into it's the prison director is grateful for the specialized help for juveniles. and the community profits out of it it is extraordinary help robel what he cares for these children in prison you know like him one no i don't think she also encourages them to engage in different activities i don't know how to get the young lady. almost 10 years ago used the pro bowl walk to help start up the room a hottie halfway house. it's now helping children deal with the challenges and psychological strain of adapting to life on the outside. they did a good thing is i'm not going to. get any of that see there are 2 types of children
3:39 pm
in this place like children who are still going through a legal process and those who have left prison. they stay here for 6 to 8 months and receive psychological care. and they also learn different skills here. those skills include finding a new path in life. i thought i was hated because i was in prison but i was told that my criminal case could be dropped with good behavior. i'm still a teenager but i'm doing my best to prove that i have changed. you see pro-ball watty hopes that indonesian prison authorities will also change to better care for the children in their custody. i don't know about his travel restrictions to walled off. from industry hard on the indonesian island of bali
3:40 pm
that has meant lost jobs and of course reduced but some locals have now turned to a traditional form of farming for some financial support during some very trying times. he gave a trip tends to his marine vegetable patch just a few months ago he didn't imagine he'd be passing his days as a sea weed farmer but the pristine waters off his nature violent of new celeb on down and valley provided him with a lifeline after the coronavirus pandemic. what can we do. i feel sad because we lost our jobs and now we have to start from scratch like it or not we have to start again due to the situation. see with farming a new dawn dates back to the 970 s. the mineral rich vegetable has many uses once it's harvested and processed from

foodstuffs to cosmetic ingredient to argon it 1st allies or bust many islanders turned their backs on the trade didn't recent years as a tourist industry boomed heyday dharma earned his living as a diving instructor until coronavirus restrictions prevented his customers from travelling like many indonesians dependent on tourism he was left struggling to survive seaweed farming offered an opportunity to pay the bills though it's harder work than his previous job and for fewer returns so. i'm optimistic that i can survive with the seaweed business. once tourism returns i will go back to work in the tourism industry and my wife or farm see wheat. i can help her after work. it's uncertain when the tourist hot spots on new selema will be able to open their doors again authorities
3:42 pm
say indonesia won't be ready to welcome international visitors before the end of 2020 so now instead of sunbathers seaweed lies baking in the sun. gated dharma thing seaweed farm tourists could even become a tourist attraction in future another lure alongside the beaches the yoga retreats the sunsets. some beautiful sunsets on bali that's it for now be sure to check out our other stories on beat up about go forward slash asia on facebook and trip top even off with more images from indonesia the ones are about to see. on the island of sumatra this is the. province at a practice session in a studio we're back tomorrow at the same time and so you bet about.

combating the corona pandemic. where does research stand. what are scientists learning. background information and news. our corona update. from the covert 19 special next on d w. i was issued when i arrived here i slept with 6 people in a room. it was hard i was fair. i even got white hair is that.
3:44 pm
not often this gets me and they the bunch mickey took in truck it's the same thing you want to know their story my friends her fighting and reliable information for migrants. the coronavirus is pushing more women to seek illegal abortions as lockdowns limit health care. there are $25000000.00 unsafe abortions every year almost half full terminations worldwide. and now the pandemic is approaching hopes of progress as president promised to decriminalize abortion a 1st for latin america. well this remembers very pointedly remember this whether it be outbreak has put the reform on hold indefinitely. colombia was also close to
3:45 pm
be devising abortion instead of talk or has ruled against it. in developing countries one in 3 terminations is carried out in dangerous conditions women in africa are at the highest risk of dying from an unsafe abortion. just the 2 sticks are nice they're a reality whether you're for or against abortion and not even factoring in lockdowns sure the restrictions have exacerbated the situation but this isn't anything new each year in kenya 2 and a half 1000 girls and women die from unsafe abortions it's a leading cause of maternal mortality especially in low income families and i'm robey correspondent my mentor survivor matar islam. we call her mercy but that's not her real name she was 16 when she fell pregnant
3:46 pm
her mother wanted to finish school so she forced missy to abort the baby for fear of repercussions she hides her face. i went to a local medicine man i stayed there for 3 days he gave me herbal medicine and i took it and. on the 2nd day i started seeing blood in that i was very afraid. there were people who were aboard and they seemed fine so i mean i thought i would die if you feel. it's estimated that in kenya 7 women die each day from unsafe abortions abortions are illegal unless the mother's life or health is in danger or if there's a rape case that's why women come to this man he's well known for carrying out a bush and so along with other procedures even though he has no medical training mercy came here to she paid the equivalent of 8 euros for the abortion in the
3:47 pm
interview however he denies performing abortions but still he wants to hide his identity. i know. given an injection drug and they're sent home so the pregnancy can terminate there many of these women die if there are lucky they do die if they're lucky the pregnancy terminate safely it's usually bad however if. the penis and i mean by. in most cases women need professional help after the abortion the international aid organization mary stopes is one of several n.g.o.s in kenya that offers these post abortion cast services but there's a lot of uncertainty says daisy abdullah. we don't have clear guidelines national guidelines on money doing this possible should get so so so we're going to football should subsist therefore this stigma that envelops us goes down to these women no
3:48 pm
doubt who has no option and doesn't know where to talk to. of course merci would have preferred to see a real doctor 3 years later she's still suffering from the traumatic experience because those men will just give you some kind of medicine and then tell you when the pregnancy has been terminated they only want your money in the end you are the one who has to suffer in a battle for despite the stigma she faces from her community she thinks every woman should have the right to a safe abortion. or drink where he is seeing a press officer a human rights watch east africa so how has covert it exacerbated the situation. thank you you know pandemics always an adverse effect to my time on health we saw with their boil up and they're making cereal leone maternal health access was very limited and now with the coronavirus pandemic the same is happening to you in
3:49 pm
a few years warning that with the disruptions and their lack of access to contraception. in middle income countries in low income countries about $7000000.00 there be about $7000000.00 unintended pregnancies and this is the time for governments to step in and start addressing maternal health even as they are thinking of corner virus because we see women right now having to be discharged from hospital much faster in hospitals or to trying to social disturbance and you know putting all the measures to prevent the coronavirus infections so this really limits how we can care for women who are coming in to give birth or who are coming in just for their care before they give their event after and of course the shortages in medical supplies has affected our section and even condom manufacturing companies are warning of
3:50 pm
a shortage you saw of course this will greatly affect how people can prevent pregnancies and you also see in other places like italy and poland governments are taking care taking advantage of the pandemic to completely cut off access to abortions. health care side of things what about the educational side of things the link between education and teen pregnancy for example. years saw before the pandemic many countries especially in africa are worried be struggling with teen pregnancies and if i can give an example of kenya. a few months ago 2 months ago or some counties in kenya released data or pregnant teenagers and we saw this in the cows and tens of thousands girls who are now pregnant and why the government should have some concern and you know i acknowledge that this has happened we did
3:51 pm
not see any efforts to ensure that these girls will be considered when schools are you opening and even now when there are discussions about how schools will be opened then all special considerations being outlined how these girls will who will back to school and what happens today to kish of saul fein a lot of the year this year has already been lost due to the from their meek but their children who are you know locked up sometimes with their users or having sex because they did not you know have information or you know. other reasons but now we need to address the fact that the children need to go back to school and what's the government doing to make sure that they're not left behind whenever our schools reopen or just tell me how how can education help our girls are raped by a family member in lockdown. so all children have
3:52 pm
a right to education right and the lockdown did force some of these children to be locked down with children with people who are abusing them and if you're if a girl if a child is receiving comprehensive sexual education then they're very clear up or about their bodies about what's acceptable about what consent means and about where to get help so some of these tips it's part of education some of this test can help our child seek help reports and talk freely about what's going on with them but even so we need to secure their education after the pandemic and a possible as a stigma around abortion is i guess one of the biggest problems facing us and many young women. there's a lot of stigma around abortion but you see this is coming about from laws
3:53 pm
and policies that prevent abortion but that does not actually stop abortion it just makes it more difficult to access them for the people who are seeking abortions are not getting them from qualified health care for see the health care providers and so when they do procure their bush on its policies and people do see others suffering. leading so much or even losing their lives so this just but between the stigma but it has to see if abortion is actually health care that can be provided to people who are going to give us and you know limits the kind of stigma and misinformation that comes with it or to go into why when i see a press officer at human rights watch if africa thank you thank you.
3:54 pm
and let me hand you over to derek williams who's been busy researching answers to your questions on the correct advice. what if no vaccine is successful what would be the pot full at the speed at which vaccines are being developed for covert 19 is breathtaking and there are over $150.00 of them in trials of some sort with with dozens of them in testing in humans and though that might seem like overkill it's not that's because under normal circumstances where development takes many years less than 10 percent of vaccine candidates for other diseases and up receiving approval so blots of the ones aimed at covert 19 or not going to work out almost certainly the majority but but what happens if none of them do it's a scary scenario and it's one that most experts don't consider likely but i suppose it's certainly a possibility so let's look for a 2nd and what that would mean if
3:55 pm
a vaccine remains elusive we'll have to continue to try to fight the virus by helping and healing the people who become infected with treatments like newly developed or repurposed drugs that improve outcomes there are still just a couple of compounds being used widely into that 1000 treatment and they only help seriously ill patients so if it takes longer than we think to develop a vaccine we're going to need more therapy and then a big goal would be to nail down early stage treatments that prevent the disease from progressing to deadly later stages some of the most promising potential alternatives in this direction are around a dozen repurposed antivirals but also an immune system protein called interferon beta as well as artificially produced antibodies called mad for monoclonal antibodies researchers are raise. thing to test those compounds and others and it's
