this is news coming to you live from berlin europe's steps up its fight to slow the soaring cases of the coronavirus germany returns to a partial lockdown as a number of other countries impose their own restrictions to get the latest from our correspondents around europe also coming up. support in a key swing state donald trump has tapped into

a narrative that appeals to florida's cuban americans could be the decider in this year's u.s. elections. and in formula one lewis hamilton wins again this time in italy to extend his record breaking number of victories to 93. hello i'm terry martin good to have you with us germany is back in a partial coronavirus lockdown from today until the end of november social gatherings will be limited to 2 households across the country bars restaurants sports centers and entertainment venues have to remain closed hotels are prohibited from providing rooms to tourists new daily corona virus infections hit a record $19000.00 at the weekend and the latest measures come in response to

what's being called an exponential rise. one more round before long time sunday was the last chance for germans to visit bars and restaurants before and enforced month long closure it's a heavy blow to businesses still struggling to recover from the 1st lockdown in the spring. of the economic damage can no longer be measured you can just forget this whole year right this year off. this year isn't about making money any more it's just about survival and saving jobs let's all just between. the german government has announced up to 10000000000 euros of aid for businesses and the self employed it says the new measures are necessary to prevent hospitals from being overwhelmed there are still enough intensive care beds available but some areas a facing shortages of medical staff to care for rising numbers of coronavirus patients. to the government is desperate to avoid shutting schools and childcare centers. instead the focus is on recreation the fresh closures and tightened

restrictions on socialising come after low infection numbers over the summer allowed to return to relative normality on sunday evening some took that chance for one last blow out despite politicians pleas to stay home chance in america once again appealed to the public in her weekend video podcast. even. though he is an artist we must do everything in our power to get the number of infections under control we must face this test together and stand together in solidarity in unspoken promise is the prospect of family get togethers at christmas but if infection rates don't fall and extended lockdown can't be ruled out. more now from our political correspondent thomas sparrow told us credible recent factions have been rising sharply in germany a host of health system coping at this point. terry the main concern that german

authorities have both at the federal level but also regionally and locally is the speed at which the coronavirus is actually spreading new figures for example pointing to the fact that many 85 percent of german districts are now considered hotspots so for now germany's health system has been able to cope with the coronavirus pandemic but if the virus continues to spread at the speed at which we're seeing then the health system will soon be overwhelmed another issue altogether is those regional health departments that are in charge of tracking of tracing infections and as we heard from under them a call last week germany can no longer trace now around 75 percent of infections so that gives you an idea terry of just how serious the situation is here in germany and that explains also why we are now as of today here in germany and until the end of the month having the new posh lockdown. thomas we heard chancellor merkel's

sunday skiing people once again to stand together in this crisis would you say that people in germany are actually doing the accepting the measures that the government has imposed it's interesting because just before the new measures were introduced a poll here in germany was released and around 32 percent over those who were polled there said that the measures back then were not actually enough so i would say that there is some sort of understanding that there is a need of measures to be introduced like the ones that we are seeing right now even if that comes hunting hand with fewer freedoms for people with the difficulties of people because in the congo to restaurants the congo to boss they can go to gyms and so on at the same time it's also important to stress that criticism is growing and not only on the streets also in the german parliament we saw that last week as well and there is also very evident coronavirus fatigue you know the words people are really exhausted by the put by the prospect of having to have another lockdown

now in november so there is a big question terry as to whether people will comply with the rules and whether these measures that have been put in place will actually be effective. thomas we've been seeing a massive rise in factions in germany how likely is it that this one month partial lockdown will have to be extended or that tougher measures will have to be imposed the goal that the government has again both federally but also regionally is to avoid any comprehensive complete lockdown they want to keep schools open they want to keep this is open as much as possible that we've had time and time again i'm going to put on the regional leaders will meet in 2 weeks time to assess whether these measures that will stop today are actually effective all while the further measures are needed for now these are the measures that we have until the end of november thomas thanks so much for filling us in there that was our political correspondent thomas spector. germany of course is not the only country implementing new restrictions as europe faces

a new wave of infections france is currently reporting the continent's highest daily case numbers in response it has imposed the strictest national law down with all non-essential businesses closed and severe restrictions on movement people will only be allowed to leave the house for central work or medical reasons well a partial lockdown has come into effect in belgium non-essential shops are closed there's a nationwide curfew between 10 pm and 6 am bars and restaurants have been shut and people have to wear masks anywhere they go outside their home. in the u.k. the country with the highest death toll in europe and one of the highest new daily case rates the government has announced a new national law to take effect starting all thursday non-essential shops must close bars and restaurants can only offer takeout schools universities and construction sites though will stay open. well let's try to talk now to our

correspondents in those countries sun your father is in paris for a sub and they get in brussels and they get must there in london let's start with sonia president mccall he has said that france has to put a brake on these galloping coronavirus numbers he wants to him he's imposed a strict lockdown how are people there dealing with that lockdown when this is france's 2nd national lockdown in jails in just 7 months but you know it isn't as if you know the french government seems to have some lessons from the braves and a significantly changed that this time you know for instance colleges are ok this time as a pox construction site in fact is when the certain small businesses you know present micro has has made it clear that the country must not stop. joking that's

not done so i think as a result. i just don't want to you know i'm going to end up in my neighborhood assistance you may not but you know. look after you take away my sense that many whites see too and then accept the need for new sections felt right then and actions but i think that is that is a sense of sense of resignation among people and also growing up at the close down there because. it's going to brussels now bent belgium has one of the highest death rates of any country in the world is there any sign out measures have been taken that the situation is improving. that's a take some time at least $4.00 to $6.00 week that's what the federal government says you have belgium and brussels is now the most infectious big city in all over

europe the positivity rate of tests it's 30 percent that means every 3rd person that is tested no he says is also positive hospital beds a filling but the multi rate is not as high as it was in april but authorities say it vill follow suit at least in 34 weeks we will see also high death rates and the. restriction of personal contacts to a minimum there's only one person in flemish it's called vancouver the contect you can have one person you can come to with or you can embrace and all private gatherings are now forbidden and the authorities take it very seriously there was a crackdown on a halloween party just yesterday 76 people arrested and the prime minister of belgium says this is now the last chance for belgium to get the virus under control and to have something like a christmas party in 8 weeks so there's

a sample of things on the continent let's move over to the u.k. in london prime minister johnson has imposed lockdown starting on thursday how are people preparing for that well i think. herring and a lot of people will think about the health service which is of course the reason that prime minister abbas johnson is looking into this new looked and we know that specifically in the north of england that hospitals are already overwhelmed that for example elective procedures like hip replacements or cancer care that that contrie be done properly and i think a lot of people are are sympathetic and they would like to ensure that the health service continues to to to thrive and continues to be able to help people over over the next months however also read like in other countries there are skeptics and a lot of them are actually in johnson's own conservative parties later on this week

as expected to be a vote on these new measures and the speculation is that almost 80 and peace out in force johnson's own party are not happy with it and would go against it and their argument is that is too crushing on the economy i think for the british population as a whole the people are really not looking forward to the next months they it has been said it's only a full week lockdown but we also know from the previous top down that of course it can extend it looks like it's going to be a very long and quite dark english winter that lies ahead of us. and resume. in brussels in paris and in london thank you very much to all of you. now let's take a look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today rescuers in the philippines have freed hundreds of people trapped by floodwaters

after typhoon goni pounded islands in the country's south at least 16 people were killed as the storm destroyed homes and triggered deadly landslides that came just a week after another deadly typhoon struck the region. millions of census takers have begun knocking on doors across china for a once a decade head count for the 1st time they are using a mobile phone app to log the numbers that will be used to understand the size and structure of the world's largest population trying to head around 1400000000 people . new zealand's prime minister just into our den has unveiled what she calls an incredibly diverse cabinet new foreign minister. who is a maori with the traditional face tattoo the country will also have its 1st openly gay deputy prime minister or down on a landslide election victory last month. now just

a day to go before elections in the us president donald trump and his democratic rival joe biden have been making their final pitches to voters trump has been holding campaign rallies in 5 battleground states while biden's campaign is focused on pennsylvania. he's he can pull off another surprise victory as he did 4 years ago most polls though have been showing biden ahead in the states needed to win. well many eyes will be on the biggest swing state of all florida it's being seen as a must win for donald trump the past 2 elections have seen a way for a sin margin between the winner and loser their present trump is banking on the support of one of the state's main voting blocks the latino vote. in a chinmoy has been to find out how the republicans under president trump have tapped into a narrative that's found appeal among florida's cuban americans. they

want to see donald trump stay in the white house and they're determined to deliver florida for him it's a must win state for the presidency even at this scale back democrat rally in orlando the triumph waters are far louder. trump has strong support from a large part of the latino community here in florida this despite things which would seem almost designed to put latinos off like the harsh words he has used to describe immigrants i'm here to find out why the hispanic vote leans more republican here in florida nearly a 3rd of the latino voters in florida have cuban roots including the. head of latinos for trump in orlando she was 15 when her family fled cuba after losing everything to the government of. the door and. now we had

lost everything you know we had lost our beautiful home. the ranch the chauffeur but we had a different life. that's why voting is so important to me because it's the gift that this country has given me that i didn't have they took away. one of her biggest fears like many other cuban americans is the idea that the system they fled could be adopted in the united states no i don't think joe biden is a socialist or a communist but i do believe the people around him are and they have the same socialist ideas that i've lived through in cuba and i've seen in venezuela so yes i do believe that he's surrounded with that and a leader is as good as the people around them being pro trump is slowly becoming something to presidents supporters keep to themselves because there can be

consequences my plumber is also a devoted trump support i had a great review which i have 000. 00040 or you know less struggle left over i was there but he says you're not appropriate don't worry because you don't want to do the job if you were trying choice already provided privileges to do the job and that's really really good work . it's not just the fear of socialism driving support for trump. many latino voters are catholic and support the republican position against abortion and it may seem counter intuitive but many also supports trump's hard line on immigration even from latin american countries. trump has the truth i don't want other hispanics to come into the u.s. even if they are from my country peru if they don't pay taxes that is not fair so

if more hispanics come and um pay taxes they seal and live off the money they get from the government then i'm a racist too and i also say get out it's not fair that those that come to the board border illegally dana call you already 10 $1000.00 to come here and we don't know who. they are they could be right here in florida support for president and the republicans the emotion. if that's a poor reflected at the ballot box it could decide the election. let's bring in william glue cruft here from our u.s. election team very good to see you so florida very complicated demographically how important is it in this election complicated is a nice way of putting it it's often the butt of the joe of a joke in america politically socially culturally i mean there are social media accounts that follow all of just the crazy news that sometimes come that comes out of florida that said it is an extraordinarily important election almost every winning president in recent history has won florida and you can't really win the

presidency without winning florida and it's such a diverse state 17 percent of registered voters in florida are now latino. which is a huge amount of voters but also we have a huge retirement population we have rural white voters you have a large jewish population you have an increasingly younger population all of these are competing groups and you know we talk about latino but that in itself is a diverse group we're talking about people come from dozens of countries or their previous generations of come from dozens of countries with hundreds of experiences you know when we talk about for example in comparison black americans 80 to 90 percent of black americans vote democrat they're much more reliable in politically speaking electorally speaking of a much more uniform group of people or time but latino's it's important to say. we saw the report many trumped supporters but the majority are still in florida going

to go for biden but you do have a breakdown where there are more people voting for trump we saw this in 2016 you had 35 percent of all the tino's voting for donald trump at 54 percent of cubans within that group voting for donald trump and when you talk about cuban americans the. they are really concentrated in in florida but let's broaden this out a little bit talking about the latino vote in the u.s. it is incredibly important but they don't vote as a monolithic group there's a lot of diversity within the latino absolutely in the united of how do they lean politically as a group i mean they lean democrat we're looking you know 2 thirds of latinos in 2016 regardless of their specific circumstances voted for hillary clinton we're looking at about that same for joe biden and latinos are a growing population you know 4 out of 5 of them are u.s. citizens they have they have us as a ship they have voting rights they this is no longer the immigrant story that stereotypical immigrant story always here these are tried and true americans who

have been here for generations now for groups such as cubans and venezuelans. as you heard in the report this word socialism is a code word for them you and i might hear socialism think something very different but for them that's a scary word because they're coming from countries where socialism means political persons and it means taking land away from from landowners and these kinds of things and these are many people who lost out to those socialist revolutions in their countries and came to america to find a different way of life to find what they would perceive as freedom and that leans them more conservative but again we need to be careful say it's still a minority group but the question is these as we said of the top these razor thin margins it might be enough to tip an election one way or another the fact is we just don't know williams thank you so much was from the u.s. election. on some other stories making headlines as our. troops have fired warning shots sense use stun grenades in an attempt to disperse tens of

thousands of protesters marching in central mintz dozens of demonstrators have been arrested there the protests demanding the resignation of longtime authoritarian leader like senator lugar shank are now in their 12 straight week. more and france protests have been taking place across the muslim world in pakistan demonstrators burned in effigy of president a man well michael the protests came after michael defended the right to free expression in the wake of the suspected islam is killing of a teacher who had shown cartoons of the muslim prophet mohammad. rescue workers pulled a 14 year old girl from a collapsed building in western turkey almost 60 hours after a strong earthquake in the aegean sea struck the region but hopes of finding more survivors are fading the quake has killed dozens of people and hundreds were injured. in
