investigations they launched a probe pretty much immediately but they are still actively looking for witnesses and of course they were contacting spending all their time contacting all the people that had booked and this ever happened before and why would the museum island be such a target well obviously there's a lot of incredibly precious stuff there we've seen some pretty spectacular art theft in recent years right on the museum island in fact at the border museum back in 2017 the big maple leaf that's 100 kilogram gold coin that with minted in canada that was stolen right out of a glass display case there was also theft just last year in the green vaults in saxony in dresden but that is theft you know and this was really more like a deliberate act of vandalism obviously of defacement and something like that really reeks of hatred and destruction or possibly of severe mental mental instability right in these are priceless artifacts as well so i mean the hope is that they can be repaired do in conclusion care and do german regimes or museums

here in berlin have a security problem because it does seem to be almost per yard goal that we're seeing either artifacts prices are things being stolen are now defaced i think they do i couldn't i couldn't really tell you exactly where it lies i know that obviously with this situation and the corona pandemic. it's a one of the time to take advantage of a lack of vigilance perhaps back so exactly or i don't care hearing more about it i hope they can salvage the priceless artifacts thank you so much carol for that thank you art want to tell you now about some of the other stories making news around the world. at least 34 members of honest on security forces have been killed in attacks by the taliban in the northern takar province according to afghan officials the talk about attack the government soldiers while they were sleeping the rising violence comes despite ongoing peace talks between the afghan government

liked it there i just got to like america a lot but i was going back and forth for a while. but i couldn't settle back in poland to finish building her house but her 4 children and their children stayed in america for good it's nothing unusual in southern poland here in question the school in the foothills of the top from mountains roman krupa is their mayor he tells me almost every family here has relatives in the us. 'd 'd we like america a lot because we are with them most of the houses you can see here with money our people are able to make in the us. the tides go back to the 19th century when the 1st people from the top from mountains left the region to escape poverty and seek a better life in america many followed up until today poland has always been able

to rely on the u.s. says district administrator appeared bung he's a fan of president and is rooting for his reelection bank believes trump will keep poland safe. the fact that the american troops are in poland and as our allies to deter potential enemies is important for us and one of the reasons why his reelection would be good for us to be. an assessment that it's in line with poland so fishel foreign policy and never try victor we would be good news for the conservative polish government the current you ask of ministration sees war so as an essential l. . in the deeply trump critical europe and in return america supports poland in the number of important areas such as defense and energy security that might all change is joe biden gets elected. joe biden doesn't have many friends in the region says

mayor krupa most people here are conservative and prefer trump's agenda and you know. you go like this rational business oriented approach when the stores are not cut they support his efforts to secure the border to make it more difficult for migrants to get. sophia quran says her family in the u.s. will certainly vote for trump and although she doesn't follow american politics closely there are things she likes about him. he seems to be very religious he prays for this and that. i had a good time in the us sophia court says and though though she reckons it's easier these days to find work in nearby germany or austria america will always be special to her. and next a nasa spacecraft has really come into physical contact with an asteroid called the

new over 320000000 kilometers from earth well the cerise rex for a collected rock and dust samples that scientists hope will allow them to learn more about how planets formed and life again. yes there. are 2 words that nasa scientists have waited for since 2016 all right. when robotic spacecraft osiris rex started its journey to the asteroid. for the past 2 years of its mission osiris rex has been orbiting the asteroid looking for the perfect spot to land for only a brief encounter. a few seconds almost like a kiss on the surface was all the time osiris rex had to grab rock and dust samples from the asteroid seconds that have been here in the making room. for. that. to go on and. i can tell you that

everything went just exactly perfect which is kind of the hallmark of this team we have consistently beaten expectations over and over again we have overcome the amazing challenges that this asteroid has thrown at us and the spacecraft appears to have operated flawlessly it was the 1st time nasa has touched down on an asteroid but it could be a week before scientists know if and how much the spacecraft scrapped still the mission is already a success i mean i haven't we actually pulled this off. is the sample collection was successful cyrus rex will begin its long journey home and return to earth in 2023. football now in the champions league has resumed with a win for last year's semifinalists are be like well they beat us access and here are 2 no angeleno grabbed both goals in their group age opener in the german city

you're watching news asia coming up today there's new information about china's expansion of its mass detention facilities from shing jan now to tibet satellite images show an expansion of a system designed to control the country's minorities. and in hong kong school teachers no longer feel safe in their own classrooms one wrong word can mean the loss of their jobs we'll take a closer look. i'm melissa chan welcome to news asia thank you for joining us we've reported on the hundreds of detention facility. across the shing jam weekend in china where the

government has rounded up some 1000000 weekers a muslim and ethnic minority international condemnation has not discouraged beijing it appears that the system put in place in shing jang is being installed in tibet once again china says these are voluntary vocational training centers but if what's happened in sion jan is any indication it's more about forcing chinese culture on unwilling to. go over to give. you a sense trying to seize control of the land they live on tibetans have complained that their religious freedom and traditional way of life are being actively curtailed now it appears the situation is getting worse this evidence that beijing is forcing hundreds of thousands of tibetans off their land and into so-called vocational training centers that are set to resemble labor camps traditional farmers and heard as are being turned into factory workers and other low paid labor

and mates to relocate to other parts of china. those are the findings of a report by the us based research institute findings china's government in tibet denies. there are no forced labor transfers as the party secretary and i explained just now people have a strong desire to travel for work and people have a strong desire to learn new skills. the government has followed their wishes and needs. but the information gathered by the jamestown foundation tells a different story it says the rural tibetans are coerced into militarized training regiments in facilities like this one and subjected to quote slow transformation patriotic and legal education and chinese language teaching. it's aspects

like these that are causing comparisons to singe on province where beijing is accused of indoctrinating ethnic weak is and so-called reeducation camps. there's no evidence that tibetans are facing the same level of persecution as the week as the international community is taking note on october 14th washington appointed a new coordinate a full tibetan issues and had a message for beijing. one of the core challenges that we were identified from the chinese communist party there a consistent violation of the most basic and fundamental human rights for their own people whether it's in john what's taking place there whether it's tibet talked about that a little bit earlier this morning will work hard to do everything we can to build out a coalition all across the world that comes to understand how important it is alongside of us and works to impose costs on the chinese communist party when they act in ways that are inconsistent with those basic fundamental human freedoms. beijing's

onset the us should mind its own business. surely the establishment of the so-called special coordinator photo betten is used by the us is totally out of political manipulation aiming to interfere in china's internal affairs and undermine the development and stability of tibet china has always opposed this position and has never recognized it. tibet's government has said that some 15 percent of the region's population have received locational training in just 7 months and the program is ongoing. rights groups worry that with every person that's unrolled tibetan culture is being further eroded. joining us is kate saunders a specialist and writer on tibet kate the report documenting this just came out i know you've monitored what's been happening in tibet for years what have been some

of your own findings. yes this is the this report. a potent indication of the very rapid social economic transformations taking place and tibet and what we've found is that this combination of intensified securitizing militarized. before sion jack came to that in which dystopian police state was set up in which emerging from china's economic and strategic objectives on tibet and with the ultimate aim of. an official document put it breaking connections breaking lineage breaking roads and what we found is that this goes beyond the superficial measures now so tibetan buddhism of loyalty to the dalai lama runs very deep into people and so the measureless need to go very deep to so we've seen the party using new

language a new focus on ideological control and focusing really on a literary thing that collective memory of what it is to be to that raising the alarm or influence this is this further emphasis on sinusitis ation and even while we may not understand fully what sinusitis ation means it's linked to the objective of creating a compliant citizens in the way that and with a focus on not only. recitation of party slogans but but really the emotional buy in of of to that tends to an ideological really multimode me why rank which is very of course right you mentioned that it's a police state i'm curious what is different this time do you think that there's

going to be an expansion into bed of what has taken place and she began with the detention camps is there more systemic thing that they're going to try to import into tibet this time. it's very different in that we have monitored the same mass inter monk that has been seen and shen jank. but all over the house being a large scale expansion of prison in some ways notice the deeper institutionalization of this ideological agenda with the construction of a new party building facilities. incenses research they seem to be centered on the military style training in many cases also taking tibetans off their land so this is linked to. drive that we've seen since 999-2000 of the so-called western development counterpane and

which tens of thousands possibly many ends of tibetan herders have lost their traditional livelihoods and whole program of mass. and this is one of the elements that is most important in the latest research because tibetans are being removed from their lands linked to these massive social engineering policies that we've seen over the years right that appears to be china's endgame kate sanders thank you. in hong kong it has become increasingly difficult for school teachers particularly those in history in politics to do their jobs recently one primary school teacher was banned after a lesson plan about free speech and democracy and the government has warned it would root out other quote black sheep from the education system.

preparing for classes know a struggle for secondary school teacher tell me he teaches won't history and some of the concepts have become politically sensitive. when we talk about ideas like social contract people have the right to overthrow a corrupt government or tyranny. but now under the political atmosphere and especially the national security law we have to be very careful about these topics . we don't know what the so-called red line is. that creates a white tara among teachers. he now has to self censor every what he says in the classroom fearing that students with a different political stance would secretly report him. you don't know if the students a pro-government oprah democracy so anything we say could be used as an excuse for

a complaint against me and i may lose my job at any time so it's very tiresome it gets very tiring day after day like that. and post the national security lawful hong kong in july just 2 months later a primary school teacher was banned from teaching for life after giving students worksheets about independence and freedom of speach. the initiative was backed by the probating cam in hong kong newly formed to parents groups recruit 100 fallen tears as an anonymous spies to a party chairs on their list of problematic teachers reasons of complaints include expressing pro-democracy fear in school. i've got it we need no funding for the lot it's wrong to have an anti government stance in the education system is

very clear if you hold an anti government stance on your teaching is problematic according to a guy look at all the violence on the streets last year what went wrong and who caused it teachers should not encourage students to take part in illegal events by . which a way focuses. since the antigovernment movement broke out last year the education period has received over $200.00 complaints against teachers dozens of educators have sought legal assistance from the hong kong professional teachers' union the union things it is a systematic approach. look into how. the pro beijing camp refused to admit hong kong's problems are caused by the wrongdoings of the government or police brutality with what they need an explanation for the social conflicts and they make teachers the scapegoat down accusing them of agitating the youngsters because you go over the trigger. under their political pressure some teachers have

already left the industry tony has also thought about quitting his job but he doesn't want to give up yet before all of us leave the teaching profession who will there be to teach the next generation. even though there are things that i cannot say in front of my students i hope my students can understand. and they would know that i haven't quit. if these teachers are still trying to keep our core values of hong kong i wish that i could give them a little bit of hope that there's still a good future for them. that's it for today there's more on. t.v. with pictures from tibet where human rights observers say the culture is under threat thanks for watching next time.

where does research stand. background information. and they're. not often. but sometimes i. think stephen's or german culture looking at the stereotype that it is in the future of the country that i now. need to rethink. their. it's all about. i'm

rachel joins me from the. post. we've been told what to watch out for fever. a loss of taste or smell a dry cough just some of the symptoms. but the effects of covert 19 on the body can go well beyond those and run much deeper a disease that begins in the lungs can have a profound impact on many parts of the body for some the effects can be long lasting. and their old many people show symptoms of what we call the long range of people having health holes which is that they are supposed to recover from the infection most covert patients recover within weeks but some have been living with the effects for months exactly how long it can last we have yet to find out could

covert 1000 be a disease from which some of us never fully recover. and this is the w.'s covert 900 special hello and welcome to the show i'm stephen beardsley in berlin 26 weeks that's the typical recovery time for a covert 1000 patient at least according to the world health organization but not for all researchers are trying to figure out why some patients experience the disease more seriously and suffer more long term consequences here's the story of one such case. eric alderman is struggling to return to normal life the 51 year old was infected with cove at 19 in march it started with a cold and a bad cough and then a trip to the emergency room he was in an artificial coma for 2 and a half months now he's being treated at a neurological rehab clinic in the southern german town if they're not then he has to relearn everything walking talking even how to set up or if they have their

father had no preexisting conditions. nothing. i came straight out of the blue. i hadn't been abroad i hadn't been on a ski trip. my friends were fine. you know i just don't know how i got it. hall. alderman is a sports reporter for a newspaper helping him get through all this is positive attitude and the support from his family his wife and his 4 children. 3 pastoral it was touch and go oh. there were times when i i almost didn't make it. they are hard they. then you all are just treating aardman dr friedly from rosen diagnosis or rebuild learned this function which can be directly attributed

to the 1000 virus he also has carved tissue on his lungs and no one knows if he'll ever recover from that. we see patients who developed weak hearts which they never previously suffered from we see patients with liver impairment which only slowly returns to normal function we see patients with distinct muscle paralysis due to nerve damage which only gradually heals us to see others whose muscle paralysis quickly subsides so we see quite a wide variety of symptoms affecting different organs. research on the illness is going on everywhere including at the clinic in nuremberg in the meantime it's become clear that the virus does attack the brain it can even cause strokes and make a person's immune system overreact. it's an illness that in many respects is unique and we learn new things every week and every month about it and will only be

able to look back in a few years in order to say what we've done right and what we've done wrong you know. 10 percent of patients have a hard time with this disease just like eric alderman has 90 percent to recover even if it does take some time. eric all those wife told us recently that her husband continues to make progress since the story was filmed and can now feed himself again speaking and walking remain difficult however the good news is that he has been relocated to a clinic much closer to the family's home or let's talk about more about recovery times with yon hennig's he's a special for pulmonary medicine co-leader the post code $1000.00 clinic at the university of hamburg medical center john thank you for joining us is there such a thing as postcode syndrome. well apparently there is right so we have reports of probably thousands of patients reporting long term effects after the disease and raising. mental

problems but also restlessness so yes we have to say there seems to be something like that. are we talking about the damage from a serious case of covert for example of lung damage your heart damage or are we talking about an ongoing pathology for example some people saying that they're smell and taste go again months later. that's the that's the basic paradigm so that the virus is causing cellular damage and these this damage then translate into long term effects and long term problems but there seems to be an additional component to that that is not just explained by the direct cellular damage that we have to figure out and we know from many viral diseases that there are long term effects there convalescence coming along. might be neural problems so what we really have to figure out now is what specific to the virus what dish will but

nevertheless i mean we have we have probably thousands i mean given the. 40000000 infected people we probably have hundreds of thousands of people with. patient long covered so that's going to be a real burden to our health care systems and we have to figure out a way to see these patients are clearly going to help them what are the common symptoms or conditions that we're seeing that might be lumped under long covert. well basically we're seeing a whole variety of symptoms so you might even call it a syndrome because basically the most commonly reported symptom seems to be fatigue but short of breath headache joint pain. red eyes so muscle pain so there's a lot of things but also we have anxiety we have a cognitive impairment so that is really

a whole variety of plethora of symptoms that we're dealing with and that makes it so difficult to basically. treat the patients well because it is i mean we need a lot of specialists to really take care of the patients at the beginning of the study a 2 year study i have to ask you even though you're at the beginning do you have any sort of results or any sort of trends that you're seeing right now that are applicable to how we look at long coven. obviously since we just started a couple of weeks ago we don't have any solid data and that is basically the main problem we're dealing with all around the world in. long covert so what we're seeing is which is interesting so the disease in our court is not associated naturally with the severity of the acute infection so we have patients who are totally 5 years now after as you showed in your in your and movie in had a severe disease with acute london damage and still they recovered completely so now

the lung function are totally normal the patients are feeling better than ever and on the other hand we have they have seen pym patients with mild disease who are doing terrible and how they can recover and are really there and able to work so that is a big problem and we don't know how that belongs together but others have shown that basically women seem to be at higher risk to have more severe long it if you're older you seem to be at risk to have long coated but really we have to find out what's going on and that's why we are trying to investigate for 2 years how the symptoms evolve and how. how we can help patients best at the beginning of this pandemic 1000 was really described as a respiratory illness based on what we know now how would you describe it. well it certainly starts in the lungs and we know that in fact the blood vessels and the kidney as

a main target of the acute disease but from the long term symptoms the long term effects it seems to be a syndrome so it seems to really affect every part of the body so far the most just system the cognitive system even the psyche is part of it so. 'd it is it is something that we really have to be really have to look into how this. how we can help these patients and really how we actually are able to see all these patients because this might mean they then these patients might be in the hundreds or thousands or a on her legs universe at homburg medical center thank you so much thank you. and now it's time for your questions it's the part of the show where our science correspondent derrick williams as the questions you've posted for you tube channel over there. if you're diagnosed with covered 19 and a recovering it's higher what measures should you take to prevent your family from

catching it as well the last thing you want to do if you catch cove at 19 is give it to your friends or family unfortunately that can prove challenging if you live in the same household on the positive side the evidence we have so far indicates that after your symptoms appear with every day that passes you're likely grows less infectious though it's still grinding its way through studies at least currently we think that maximum infectiousness hits around the 1st day that you show symptoms if not before so if you tested positive after you developed symptoms and are now convalescing at home and the people around you have tested negative then the likelihood you'll infect them should as a rule drop by the day here's what authorities recommend you do 1st no visitors of course and both you and caregivers should wear masks and any interactions even if it's hard stay as isolated as you possibly can preferably in your own room with

a window that can remain open if temperature is permitted door closed try to only eat there as well a dedicated set of silverware and plates is a good idea if you have the option in your home of multiple bathrooms and toilets then dedicate one to your use limit contact with caregivers if at all possible they really should belong to a high risk group they'll need to disinfect regularly leave any dirty laundry or bed linens unwashed for as long as possible and finally don't forget that caregivers. well i also need to quarantine for as long as health authorities require even if that means long after your own sometimes have improved. science correspondent their claims there don't forget that you can post your questions to derek on our youtube channel and if you'd like to keep up with the
