this pandemic has made it clear to us where we stand and where we live. we need the kind of apartment we have, the kind of neighborhood we live in. what i have, it's all been amplified now. and that sense of being hemmed in by a city life has driven us out into the countryside to find freedom. little human us has long enjoyed freedom. his family moved to a village outside, but when 3 years ago rents in the city have sold out for the past 10 years. many young families to move away to places where housing is more affordable, and so forth.

everything we could afford in berlin was too small. we could have had a small house the same size as our apartment, but why bother me thought we'd rather be further away, but have more space and by topic. but the distance from the city is a problem. takes on it, collects in an hour and a half to get to work and there's no day cat hair either. there are no amenities within walking distance, no bakery or supermarket. you need the car for everything. 'd but they still don't regret that decision to leave the city. 'd it here definitely has a calming effect just to sit outside and breathe in the fresh air or bask in the sun. 'd palin has also become noticeably quieter. as a media artist, florian told police about how, who 1st as an alternative health practitioner and has to go to her office in town.

except that during a pandemic, many patients a staying away, the couple felt it was time to make some decisions. this was something we've been wanting to do for a long time. the pandemic just gave us the impetus. after staring at the wall for months, we went out into the countryside to look around and choose a house. got the keys in july. and since then they've spent half the time here too. i would drive from. then we love it here, but i don't know if that will still be the case in 5 years time. maybe we'll find it annoying to have to drive out of the city. but right now it's just great. looks nice,

but it's actually not all that easy to just abandon the city in the middle of a lockdown at it must be really tricky for all those digital nomads who have no one said workplace, but like to flip open their laptop in far off places. it high up in the alps or out on the endless plains of africa. it must be hard right now with travel being served restricted. it's not a bad business model. don't tell the boss. and i have to go. when i was on the road, you know, every day, you know, even knew it was going to happen. how

do you know office before you know, you knew what next week was going to break? you know, you need to commute, you know what they are going to take lines from where you're going to go ahead, you know, home and there's a lot of routine to 5 steps are really coming. that's all. don't add up. want make sure that your job is fully, you know, step to understanding that you need to move slowly. step 3 is to look for places that have lots of life by step for us to really look for places that have been yourself, have a place that sort of easy to let one think over has done time. my people moving remotely, companies being ok with,

you know, people working from home. and so, you know, if you live in say, new york city and you're really expensive to live there, you have to go in the office. why not move to a cheaper state by going to a beach? i'm going to market, you know, right now, as i look outside my apartment, i see a parking lot. i'd rather see a beach you have to balance, work and play, and it's a lot harder to do when you're in a place that you possibly want to plan. the faster you move, the harder it is to find that out. and invariably, one stouffer's, moving slowly is the key to balance your day as well as just being mentally stable and not exhaust outlets.

i stupidly once lost a contest and then went sailing, thinking i could just have like a tethered phone and that was not the case. and you know, travel around africa where there's just for weeks now, why 5? you really was going to make sure that we're ever going there straight kind of a quick google search. can you say tell you, you know, people who have been there before, if it's good, or you know, one of the greatest things about working remotely as allies, other people do it. and so you can usually find a lot of communities around the world of other digital nomads, not from yours who are doing a fine, exciting, needed work out. why don't you see if i have an facebook or 2 ago? how are you going to get friends and friends?

it's like finding games and, and amazing. and so you know, it's 95 and don't tap a you can't, she doesn't have air conditioning and this flies everywhere. so i look for places that, you know, are easy to get. so you have a lot of various activities, transportation, wife, i think everyone should just go do this. you know, i certainly now in an age of zunes and you know, you know, you go into the office, take a break, you know, for 4 days, somewhere close by i might just do that at a beach that have a nice look out there. we don't have windows in the studio do, but in the meantime it's human contact. so many of us a craving, a city doesn't have to be full from a, but it can be fun when the streets of buzzing with activity and lots of tourists

are in town. i know my colleague off misses it. he's been using all that time on his hands to address his own pandemic, juiced anxieties and pondering over whether dinosaurs could make a comeback. fair, where is everybody? i'm often working from home, of course. coming up next. here, in n.z. remember the good old days? you know, lynn was packing list tourists. everyone wanted to come here and they still do

and we've gone into hiding to protect ourselves and office and rightly so. 'd what do you do all day buddy? it's kind of dad here now. well, you used to be in all the pictures. you had no cities deserted,

just people flee for the countryside alone reclaimed by nature. its buildings covered an ivy deer prancing around the brandenburg gate. maybe even the dinosaurs will return, so it takes one to know one on the judging a level off and the rest of my team here at the w. . i'm sure i'd miss them if i had to work at home all the time. thanks for joining us for another look at the changing world of business and how our city's taking a good hard look in the mirror right now. let's hope they get green up and spot up . otherwise, i might just entertain the idea of packing my bags and leaving someone a little more relaxed. stay healthy, everyone, and while you're all cooped up at home, don't forget to check out our social media team. it's all

play play. this is the w. news. a live shot from here in the german capital backlash against efforts to curb the spread of the coronavirus police used water cannons to push back and demonstrators protesting against legislation that extends government powers to impose restrictions. also coming up in the south with crowbars cases rising in new york city, closes all of its public schools. this as u.s. deaths from close it once we have now talked about 14000000 and the indian capital of delhi battles. another spike in peace will be the front line workers are doing

one of the hardest jobs. there is each and every day. i'm claire richardson. welcome to the show. while makers in germany have voted to give the government's new powers, meant to make it easier to tackle. the coronavirus crisis include new measures that would make it possible to impose restrictions on social contacts and shut down shops and sporting events. although most germans find the restrictions justifiable, thousands of demonstrators came out to protest the move to find bands and clashing with police in berlin. i, water cannon and pepper spray deployed by police to disperse the demonstrators. thousands gathered near the german parliament building a crowd, including anti-government protesters, coronavirus skeptics,

and members of far right groups. many were not wearing masks or maintaining social distancing. they were protesting against coronavirus restrictions, which they see as a violation of their civil rights. but a little while, in my opinion, the restrictions are disproportionate. surely it should have been possible to come up with other measures that don't cause so much suffering a little bit about the state. i am here for my children and my grandchildren. i will not allow their freedom to be taken away down while police clashed with protesters outside lawmakers inside parliament were largely in agreement and approve the new infection protections long. below is meant to put the government's response to the coronavirus on the stronger legal footing. previous legislation only listed broad general provisions and didn't foresee the severity of the pandemic or the specific restrictions needed to rein it in. this led to local

courts, overturning some of the measures the new law that finds more concretely what restrictions can be introduced, including mandatory face masks, limited social contacts, and restaurant closures. health minister, young spawn, defended the measures and criticize those protesting against them. loads, i'm sure you lash out to be against it, or even to deny the obvious oh, that is possible and must be possible in a free and open country. but those who are allowed are far from being right and certainly not in the majority. and this did not deter the demonstrators outside, despite polls showing they are in the minority. a recent survey found 56 percent of germans believe the restrictions are justified. and some actually want even stricter measures. let's take

a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world. u.s. secretary of state mike peo is holding talks in jerusalem. he's meeting with the israeli prime minister binyamin netanyahu, and bahrain's foreign minister abdullah 2 countries have agreed to normalize ties under a u.s. backed deal. and the u.s. federal aviation administration says boeing's $737.00 max jet will be allowed to fly again. if planes are fitted with new software, the aircraft was grounded in march last year after 2 crashes killed nearly 350 p. . officials have said that schools in new york city will close on thursday in an effort to contain soaring numbers of new coronavirus infections. the city's mayor bill de blasio made the announcement on wednesday, saying there would be a halt in person learning out of what he calls an abundance of caution. new york city's positive test rate has been steadily creeping up after dipping dramatically

over the summer. and for more, let's bring in our correspondents all over. is alex all of our always good to see you. new york city's mayor bill de blasio ordered all public schools to be closed a step that he had wanted to avoid. why has he changed his mind now? you know, the numbers of code 19 taza to flee test to people in new york city. have premiums going up steadily, as you said. and that brings all back a lot of bad memories. as you know, new york city was the global epicenter of the pandemic. earlier this year, the beginning of the pandemic and mayor de blasio set a threshold of 3 percent positivity rate. so that means of more than 3 percent of the new yorkers are tested positive to cope with 19, then the schools would close down as one measure to avoid the further spread. and we have reached that limit now and we're nearing things giving. so it's a very delicate moment in time. and certainly closing the schools is an important measure. and part of the plan of the mayor here,

what it means is that after 8 weeks that the schools were opened, this is the biggest school district of the country. so they're closing down again, 1100000 students are affected and certainly that puts a lot of strain now on students and on the families as well. all over, as you say, last spring, new york city was the epicenter of the pandemic in the united states. is new york expecting to see that again? well, that is exactly the feel right, so they don't want history to repeat. and remember the dire situation. the city was in hell, the hospitals were above capacity at the time. i'm sure you also remember the cooler trucks that were used as mobile morgues. so those pictures really went around the world. so there was a lot of suffering for the new yorkers makeshift field hospitals in central park. and we could see that again potentially. but the plan, of course, is to avoid exactly that by acting decisively and early enough this time around there and johns hopkins university has now put the death toll in the united states

at $250000.00 people. what is that going to mean for the situation in the rest of the country? well, for the in the, in the rest of the country, the situation is in part a lot worse than in new york city. in fact, sometimes even very chaotic, if you look at the midwest of the current current epicenter of the pun, demick in the united states, south dakota has a positivity rate of 56 percent right now. so far above new york city schools and restaurants still remain open. the south dakota governor also said you don't have to feel bad if you don't want to wear your mast. so it's voluntary. and it really shows there is no coherent policy in place in the united states. and it adds to that donald trump is not taking any decisive action at this point. also blocking joe biden's transition team. so he came out today and said that this could actually delay his planning by weeks and it closed could cost thousands of lives. if donald trump doesn't give in on that, on the face that reporting for us from a d.c.

. thank you very much. here are some of the other developments in the pandemic. the u.s. food and drug administration has approved the 1st covert 1000 home testing kit that provides results within 30 minutes. but the test will initially require a prescription limiting its initial use. brazil has reported more than 30000 coronavirus cases in a single day. the country is the 2nd most affected in the world with 5900000, a confirmed cases of cold at 19 and in switzerland intensive care units are operating at full capacity. more beds have been added and the swiss military has been called in to support efforts in several areas. let's turn to india now where the capital delhi is considering plans to reintroduce some lockdown measures following festive gatherings and a drop in temperatures. the nation as a whole is braced for a spike in cases residents in delhi have already seen the numbers go up to those at

the frontline of the city's battle with 19 the day is just beginning for but he knows it will be a long one. he counted 15 bodies in the morning when he left the morgue at delhi's largest covered 19 hospital, where he works. he will spend all day at this chemical area. he helped cremate the body sifi and ensured that people suffering. the shock of losing a family member to the good will know why it is have proper protective gear. as they see their last goodbyes for the last week has been bringing in twice the number of bodies that no new delhi is experiencing. it's taught spike in 1000 cases . the close 200 deaths every day was assigned to the mortuary. often many locals before him, quipped. all the event by the number of corpses coming in

i had to step over bodies to sort through the names of the victims. i had to summon all my courage. of course i was scared. i've never seen anything like it in my life . i've never seen so many bodies still, he soldiers on. he says someone has to here at the local hospital, delhi's largest go don't know why this facility. the spike is evident. the severity of the cases has also risen. as many more see admission. while this hospital still has a high number of designated kono vials, beds available, they only have a handful of free ventilators and intensive care units or i.c.u. beds left. this after i.c.u. beds at this facility alone have been for drupal during the pandemic. authorities here are confident that things are under control, but they are also bracing for more cases. more and more people are coming home. so

we hope this is because of the number of people and the authorities are now mapping out ways to prevent the health care system from being over bend with daily guesses in delhi crossing the $8000.00 mark. the national government has now stepped in at party's plan to significantly ramp up, testing, increase the number of i.c.u. bed and also deploy in more urgency health care forces. as read in delhi, the morgue and the board are stokley, distant words, crowds continue to troll in the markets. just didn't think the labeling restrictions as unnecessary would cause you is no need to worry cases are going up, so keep rising even during a shutdown. people go out anyway, you want to make a difference. it's not so would be interesting to eat. and right now,

if you take some precautions, so it becomes easy for them. back at the crematorium. strongly disagrees. his is the kind of book that makes some wince when he sees the markets over flowing . and people shouting together on the street. memories often don't, don't maybe feeding for those out and about. but it's still a free to come close to his key young daughters. and his aging mother, but he is not giving up lock down 50 is not an option. it's only been the pandemic and that r.g.s. can truly go home. it's a poland's now where thousands of people have staged a fresh rally in warsaw to protest, an attempt to tighten the country's abortion laws. last month, poland's top court outlawed abortions for fetal abnormalities amounting to a ban. on nearly all abortions in the country, the proposed changes have unleashed the largest demonstrations in decades and are driving more women to seek abortions abroad. another night of protests in poland.

thousands of women took to the streets once more to voice outrage over a supreme court ruling that could further tighten the country's strict abortion laws. already many women have been forced to travel abroad for the procedure. polish kind of college is youngish. rids in ski works in germany. he's inundated with hate mail from compatriots for performing abortions on polish women. this is 1st and foremost. they want to insult you. they tell me i'm a murderer. i'm used to that by now. give it a go. he also gets letters from women, thanking him. you've saved my life. this one reads. since he says he's horrified by the proposed changes, modifies birth. when the baby would die after birth, it is torture to force

a woman to have it anyway. for polish women can count on a network of european organizations providing help. teen works for a pro-choice organization based in berlin. she has come to the train station to pick up. a woman arriving from poland is about the time she was really anxious and cried for 2 days. she doesn't want to give birth to a disabled child, but she's being forced to do so. that's a word for shock. she helps women find a clinic organizes accommodation and collects donations. mara clarke, founder of the international network, abortion support says many of the women reaching out for help are polish. and when this ruling happened, on the 22nd of october, we went from getting 300 colds a month to in one case 300 calls in one day. and i know because people are

terrified, fueled by desperation. the protest in poland show no signs of abating. you're watching news of me claridge's and such training as the fight against the corona, virus. 10 damage has the rate of infection in developing. what does the latest research say information and contacts the coronavirus update on t w. n. u, you mean our peers? yes, we can hear you and how the last 2 years gentlemen sound so that we're bringing you, i'm going to back off and you've never.
