quality regulations they fear that often brags it cheaper low quality meat from the u.s. could damage the how market despite this many farmers including some of the language his neighbors voted for bricks and other now requesting that stores here at cannes weekly cattle auction most pharma say they just have to answer with i think farms just got to make the most of the situation but it will have the legislation is in place and whatever tires we have and get on with it we will be better off in the end but it will be very hard in the interim period. just starting our coaching on not looking forward to it because offing is going to be a long haul to hold we have bricks without government subsidies many farmers might be facing bankruptcy particularly in the absence of the trade. and languish is furious. it's just disbelief that they can tell so many lies you know that. you know the how they will be accused everything will be fine it will be the

easiest free trade agreement history. and i can't swear it is just proved it will be so much rubbish. father and son are hoping all the same that children will take over the business 1st 5th generation farmer despite rex's. well let's have a look at where we are in those negotiations between britain and the e.u. with a new richmond he's a member of ireland's parliament and speaks for his party finagle on european affairs welcome to t.w. i'm guessing i'm presuming that the irish are watching these negotiations particular be closely with britain being such a major trading partner and we have the u.k. prime minister barak's johnson a warning that he could walk away from these free trade negotiations with the e.u. do you think he's likely to follow through on that. i'm not too sure it's right

this process producer johnson said will think and done something completely different say was meant to be yet another deadline in his mind is what we will continue to scotians ultimately you're right u.k. is an important export market for art and but it's not our most important our most important duties the e.u. as a whole germany france and belgium are all bigger export destinations for aren't we want is a trade deal between the e and the u.k. who must be a trade deal that doesn't damage the european union and must be a treat you know where the united kingdom needs its responsibilities and one of the significant sticking points in these negotiations there is this proposed british internal market bill what's the irish government's position what does what does dublin want the british government to do with this bill. weld position of jordan is the same as everyone in the european union is that the internal market is an absolute threat which all agreement on the arch contender in if the british government continue with the internal market in its current form it's currently in

the house of lords they will break international law this is nothing to do with the new girl trade negotiations that are ongoing but this is due to a joint agreement that has already been agreed. this british prime minister goes he added that this british parliament ratified it and is a signed international law the original intent quite simply has to meet its international obligations to not withdraw agreements to the irish protocol to the right to e.u. citizens in the u.k. and vice versa as well as the settlement the fact that they have tabled this internal market bill number of weeks ago was extremely disappointing unfortunately siren mood of the parliament trade negotiations that by michel barnier meanwhile the european commission says reaching a deal over bracks it requires a realist them as well as reflection from boris johnson the u.k. prime minister what does that realism and reflection look like to you. i think what we need to see from the british negotiating side is

a approach to negotiations in line with the political declarations that they agreed at the start of the year they need to accept a level playing field no one agrees a trade deal with the e.u. they don't the innate need to accept that there will be an arbitration system over the russians and they need to take a realistic approach to fishing because ultimately since you do not know which wars there are these strange fish german fish are fish or british fish and that's why we need to british government joe pro-choice the last few precious days of negotiations realistic because ultimately a no deal scenario is of course very damaging it was an r. and cross the e.u. the country that suffers the most you know your scenario is the. near it friend from figo thank you now to thailand where thousands of pro-democracy protesters are valid in central bangkok in defiance of an emergency decree batting mass gatherings police who

attempted to move into the crowd to disperse the protesters were pushed back 1st a druggie came a day after police broke up a demonstration in another part of the city protesters are demanding the resignation of the government a new constitution and reforms to the monarchy. a show on dr a wall from afar in the cologne in germany is a political scientist and thailand specialist with the university of south the international institute for asian studies in leiden in the netherlands welcome to d w so these protests have been going on for months or why do you think the thai government is only now declaring a state of emergency. well the thai government has. try to not escalate the demonstrations and i think one important step for this collation actually comes from the monarchy now so you know what what happened yesterday was that actually when you returned from bulgaria to bangkok choose to

you know have a car right exactly past the democracy monument where the protest happened so this kind of was a major step in you know stepping out of the you confront issues of that like government cannot hold back and right that the king seems to be a significant part of this the protest as a calling for constitutional reforms and a reassessment of the country's mana cable just know so is that just part of the site geist or is that to do with this particular case. well i think we really have to our you know recall that this is kind of basically opening the floodgates so this has never been on the streets before and. as as we know you know the single mentioning or kind of remark on the king could easily give you 15 years in jail so for a long time you know this this censorship has you know prevented any discussion

about the monarchy and with the old king and a large part of the population actually it was behind your king and supported demonic but the present king gives his behavior and also you know the the pressure from cope with 19 crises has kind of led to a situation where people are you not trying to and you know talk about the real problems of the country and suddenly after students started you know fresh and maybe now you. move to you directly targeted the king and the monarchy this opened the debate and it cannot be drawn back i think we've been looking at pictures of people on the streets and clearly there are tens of thousands of people joining these protests but is that a fair assessment do you think of the amount of support that this movement has across the country. well it's difficult to to know but what

we can see and what we can judge basically from social media is that their readiness to discuss about them will not keep is quite high and higher than it used to be at any point in history basically so you know there is this very prominent facebook group which was founded only in april and it has now $1000000.00 over $1100000000.00 followers it's the 800 biggest facebook group it's exclusively referring to the monarchy and critical remarks on the monarchy so judging from what's happening in the social media there's enormous demand for discussing. we're talking to you thank you that's very clear dr. thank you. but a couple of the matter just south korean boy band b.t.s. has made it such a thing debut with shares more than doubling to net more than $800000000.00 after

their initial public offering its huge interest reflects what a bastard global success story career has become. even though she could only watch the show online wearing a mask in the presence of a few friends b.t.s. found angie one was deeply touched. she was one of more than 100000000 people worldwide who logged on to watch a b.t.s. concert last weekend. this 7 piece group of korean 20 somethings clearly means a great deal to her and many others around the world. live on their songs are really good their sons gave comfort in these tough times and made me a fan. such devotion is lucrative for korean pop purveyors it's easy to understand why big hit entertainment the management company behind the band decided to launch an i.p.o. demand was huge the share price almost tripled within minutes giving the company

a market cap of almost $10000000000.00 comfortably making it one of south korea's tarty most valuable. my name is kevin hart is now a major worldwide industry leader with their smooth american accents and seemingly universal appeal b.t.s. are at a global forefront. big hits successful i.p.o. is also good news for this man. the management company's founder is now a multi billionaire well might be buying his drum. for its passionate fans though the appeal of b.t.s. is about something much more personal than a share price 2. south korea has lots of boy bands so what makes p.c.'s so special we asked is chief editor for every run t.v. in seoul that's a great question everyone loves an underdog story and b.t.s. surely has when he made their 1st real u.s. 7 years ago under this much a less certain no musical management company and despite having fewer resources and

connections to to other kid pop groups the row is in global popularity and over the years since then they stayed really personally connected with their fans and social media which their fans say in various cottonseed shoes factor that keeps them devoted to this war the end of there's also say the fact that each and every member of the group write their own songs and lyrics is a huge plus and emotions are songs are messages to their fans. a mood whose chief editor at t.v. in seoul this is the news here's remind the top story out germany's record it's times number of covered cases since the time it got going to maxwell house the times new restrictions and a slowing the spread bill to young people to put their parties on hold while underlining that everyone has a part to play. this is day doubly up next in the news asia devastating floods are affecting millions of people in south and southeast of the

surviving without. a welcome to deed. it's good to have you with us large parts of south and southeast asia are reeling from floods brought on by heavy rains and storms these are visuals from holy on in central vietnam showing its famous ancient underwater close to a 1000000 people in the country are affected and at least 36 people have died over in india record rainfall in the southern state of telangana has killed at least 15 people it's part of a wider trend in south asia where more than 9600000 people have been affected by severe flooding. hyderabad is

drowning the rain has been relentless in the south indian city and it's now kind. and one deadly incident floodwaters pushed a woman to a house which collapsed on impact. other victims were swept away and raging currents. pressley teams have been working day and night but they can't get to everyone residents in some areas say that had no help at all. 500 or hold a flood of troubled in the water since yesterday night and nobody visited this place so what people are suffering kicks off opening there is no food no water no milk. service to go. catastrophic scenes also in cambodia. deadly flash floods have hit the west of the country prompting the evacuation of some 2 and

a half 1000 people. the military and police have been deployed to assist with the massive operation and hand out much needed to talk to isolated communities. and this is the scene and neighboring vietnam where flooding has claimed the most casualties in the last week after a 1000000 people have been impacted by the floods some 200000 homes are underwater and there are fears the death toll could rise after a catastrophic landslide hit a mountainous area in central vietnam. and there's no relief in sight more bad weather is expected as tropical storm man cut pummels the country and aid groups say it could overwhelm even the most resilient communities. and joining me for more is a program coordinator for the international federation of the red cross and red crescent societies in bancorp in thailand was the interim welcome what is the scale

of the damage that we're seeing in vietnam and cambodia. yes. the tropical depression is induced significant heavy rain in the past many days. in vietnam and cambodia and laos as well so the flood house caused significant and serious damages to all more than 100. 1000 households in several provinces of the central of yet none and it is also clear that close to a 1000000 people will be faced that by the floods because of their holes are dated in the water and these are only destroyed and including their lives. in cambodia according to the national disaster. management committee that

is also having a serious issues and flooding which is. force. 100000 people has been ill fated. now this flooding comes amid the ongoing coronado artist from dermot. having a double impact on people absolutely i mean this is a double whammy making it even powerful 1000000 people already struggling with their economy trail out there called the night in an attic that has destroyed their income and livelihood. what is the government doing about the user double romy's urge you call them is the government being able to cope.

at the moment the government is giving up their priority to search and rescue and saving lives. to get local authorities and. arrest costs as well so of course i mean the we and i what i just mentioned the. 19 pandemic has for taking the overall capacity in the community so i think that is something that international community also have to look into this and try our best to leave and to work together so that people will be able to access to relief and. recovery the spirit of cooperation is what has been the theme generally through the scorn of our

responder but are you really seen that international help in trying to help these affected communities. can you repeat the question are you really seeing help coming from the international community to the work that you are doing or the governments are doing to try and help these affected communities. oh i think east these kind of situation start up those plots out there plots and last week that called 980 and i think also even very well these and resilient communities it is also something more akin you know. too much so i think that it is not this it means every individual governor and all any organization that i think we need to come together and. and sort it out. around from the international federation of the red

cross and red crescent societies thank you so much for speaking with us. most cinemas in india have reopened after the 7 month hiatus because of the corona about a spend the reopening in some states comes despite a rise in case counts that is currently above 7000000 the 2nd highest in the world almost 10000 feet as flows. to india imposed one of the longest and strictest lockdowns in the world cinemas odd reopening now with staggered short timings separated seats and mosques and men to treat temperature churchs one trade on the list called the reopening a momentous occasion to understand why listen to him explain all indians.

escapism. most of the people who are to the cinema not to be educated not to learn something they go beyond the need to be entertained and as long as human beings are like the media for entertainment well not about it and therefore with hollywood being the cheapest form of entertainment and entertainment the need for entertainment cannot die it is natural you can all agree that bollywood and mark. it may not die but it certainly slowed down during the pandemic bollywood here refers to the indian language film industry based primarily in mumbai who's filming shabby roads were impacted during the months of lockdown and so to where the earnings of thousands who depend on it for survival. bomb. elaborate song and dance routines. that's how most of the world knows.

that. but behind the glitzy facade are thousands of devious workers who form the backbone of the film industry. yet they remain anonymous and live at its margins far from the scene under she is one of them. he lives in a wondrous flat and is the sort of bread winner in his family or for. a few. what i did 5 years under worked as a background on so in countless people moving few but his work completely dried up as a forward 1000 pounds in me forced the film industry to shut down a few few before the code locked down i used to get good walk i would get one or 2 songs. and manage to on about 18000 rupees every pundit which used to take care of my family's expenses but for the past 6 months or so there's

been nothing new to me in this meaning. and there is now finding it difficult to make ends meet and he's far from the only one people who have been hit the hardest are the daily beaches who work in various capacities in the industry including as makeup assistant in light of the spot boy group dances and. most of them are now struggling to find what is now just beginning to pick up a bit but only in fits and starts and i'm just. the widest measures. budgets have been pared back as the indian film industry reads from the shut down of movie theaters its biggest source of revenue even and then the shoot for just starting now the actors especially are requesting for minimal crews so our crew sizes i shrinking which of course means those people who were doing leverage will end up being the biggest loser in this show you. know i'm sure is

increasingly desperate for work and has been reaching out to others in the industry . but of course not like we have the security of football and joy when we put in the walk otherwise we get nothing i do have hope of finding walk again the world grandson who after all. having worked all his life in movies which allowed others to dream. i hope this story also have a happy and. that's it for today be sure to check out other stories on the double dot com forward slash on facebook and twitter we leave you now with images of a digital exhibit in tokyo these are from the team lab the borderless eggs a version of the digital off museum in tokyo a number of these lights we knew made us people approach them or touch their direct a lot of the same time of our.

drugs like that. it's important to know your treatment is most effective medicines helpful early on when the infection is mild when there are no breathing problems could be ineffective or harmful to a patient. ringback continue to scour their portfolios for possible solutions the world has never faced a pandemic of these proportions in a moment i'll talk to an expert from the european medicines agency 1st a look at some of the drugs that are being repurposed. anti-viral medicines were originally developed for hiv hepatitis c. influenza and 2 other coronaviruses sars and mares they're designed to stop the disease from reproducing or entering long cells anti-inflammatories are used to treat rheumatoid arthritis or inflammatory diseases they're supposed to limit the

body's defenses and severe long infestations to avoid further information which would cause more damage than the disease medicines for long complications are designed to treat idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis they help supply the patient's longs with sufficient oxygen and help the long repair themselves cardiovascular medicines were developed to treat blood clots or heart disease they're now being used to prevent complications from 19. head of biological health threats and the strategy of the european medicines agency is a pharmacologist who spent several years in antibacterials and antifungals in preclinical and clinical development so where are we at in treating corona with repurposed medication. yeah we're seeing some important advancements in particular i think they use autism at the saw not for treatment of light patients we copy 19 and with important results from the recovery study showing the benefits

in mortality using this a medicine has an important enfants ment and will be used and also the antivirus does appear one of the 1st one to be tested in clinical trials for the treatment of corby 19 it showed that the ability over you seems at the time to recall very so the time to start from the off the gulf patients weaned off the lies the coming 19 and therefore d's are so far the more significant that spawns meant that we are reaching tons of these days i went through the various treatments before what one of the most effective of these treatments. yet there's a matches on indeed the met giving us the most impressive results so far and we really hope to see other interventions that will be as effective as this one and really the combination of deeper and more dolly piece of treatment will be but important to be investigating the future we are posing

a whole being then you want to climb onto bodies with that and neutralizing the activity so really acting as an t. biros and probably that combination all bunty bar as we say no more do leaders might might be the most interesting were to follow in the future. it took a long time to find the right mix to treat hiv we going to have to wait that long suppose it. we are not to of course your everything is much more compressed in time and fortunately there are still a lot of patients out we need severe call the 19 and be hospitalized and we have seen progress when you're up in new wave all of the cases including similar cases so we're really all that clinical trials that are running out the moment and there are several efforts will be able to deliver you know much faster way what we need to know about what could be the best intervention c.r. now to combine the different agents of course is very important and one of the

lessons learned that we need a lot from the my skin the court trial and the small fragments of clinical research that we've seen in the beginning part all seem europe is not really elsewhere because we need large studies to tell us exactly what it's 14 and which patients but instead of 3 parts a single the different drugs developed to treat different diseases what what about new therapies. yet in terms of one to virus indeed the new wave of products are brand new and they cover all the small molecules simiar to rendez appear or indeed these onto bodies that have the potential to naturalize the virus and being very effective any indeed we seeing these with other emerging viruses like it how they can be a really fucked pooling times already using the burden of disease so we are really hoping that all these new maxine's will provide really new opportunities and really be helpful in fuck food in treating patients as you said the new drugs could reduce

the burden the need to hospitalizations i guess what we do need is a drug that works at all stages that. absolutely in fact so we're really supporting the effort by many developers to study different drugs at different stages of the coffee $1000.00 disease starting really from the season plus the sport of creepy locks is going to treatment of mind p.c.'s in the out patient and then of course the treatment of severe cut we $99.00 patient that i was brutalized and maybe we will need a combination of different drugs depending on the difference and point of the season of all of your encouraging new therapies but why isn't more being spent on that potential vaccines are saved about 6 times more funding than therapies and we don't even know if we'll get a vaccine. i guess for what i can say is that he's believed that the vaccine could ever be the end of the day yet bigger impact on the course of the fund than mick and also in trying to contain the spread of the virus and this is

what will be learned for a number all of our old diseases over years and decades but of course you're absolutely right the problem we need not to forget that also tara pure dick's artistry many important and efforts to be put also in that ira to make sure that we have a group or fawley or or treatment options that cover different pharmacological activities in order to make to make sure that we can treat this one as possible in a non christian way patients with different stages of the disease from the use top strategist michael company thank you very much for your time thank you building a high ms germany 2nd because pharmaceuticals company with close to 6 and a half 1000 staff they're busy working on various drugs including a special covert 19 therapy. these antibodies may be invisible to the human eye but they could play a vital role in neutralizing the corona virus scientists in the laboratories and

bieber half say they are developing new treatments as fast as they can. we are generating antibodies to bind with the virus and prevent it from infecting other cells and the human body. so these antibodies are designed to catch the virus after it has entered the body yet before it can do any damage. this science in a persuade b.-a is brilliant in the himes largest research and development center. the head of the german division says the prospects for b. are good. by we are in the middle of the process of building up our team and be our work force and we expect a slight increase in personnel over the next few years and always does it i mean by taking in next. another approach to fighting the coronavirus is the in-house molecular library the so-called treasure troves these shells contain over

a 1000000 different chemical substances the accumulated knowledge of the pharmaceutical giant researchers are investigating whether these substances are suitable for treating some of the effects of covert 19 the scientist said person or have joined 36 other pharmaceutical companies and research institutes around the world to form a consortium to fight the corona virus. if we can work together and we can pull the best information from each contributor and that is precisely the goal of the consortium to bring together all the experts and move forward quickly on this occasion but it could take years before an anti coronavirus drug is approved the scientists at berlinger in the heim say it's too early to speculate about a possible release date. time to look at the viewer questions that have been coming in on our you tube channel is there williams. it's covered

19 now and to me. when i read this question i thought ok it's time to talk about the elephant in the room the fact that despite all of our fondest hopes this virus is not going to fizzle out and go away 1st let's define and the way we're using the word here is in its epidemiological sense which. describes when an infection is more or less constantly present in the background within a specific population and geographic region but it also implies that it's in a kind of steady state which go over $1000.00 is not at the moment it's still spreading fast and furiously in many places all over the planet one of 2 things could happen next when enough people build up immunity to it through infection or vaccination covert 19 could become an endemic disease or it could just

apparently burn itself out and disappear like sars dead but not that's not going to happen in other words at this point if we could say that the disease wasn't dead that we'd actually be farther along the road towards returning to life as usual that we are it would mean covert 19 was no longer out of control but was a disease we had tools to cope with we'll develop those tools eventually just like we did with aids and influenza in fact probably a lot faster but but wiping the virus out entirely at this point would take a massive planet wide strategy like the one that wiped out smallpox and has nearly vanished polio but projects like that take high levels of cooperation between nations and they take time so covert 19 is going to be with us for the forseeable future but to some extent at least for how long will depend on us. humans on the only ones going through difficult times during the pandemic some zoos
