biggest cheerleader. they want their record as the bundesliga worst ever team to stand. that's it for now i'll be back with more news if you need for them is a way that website to be found. and you can follow some social channels as well the handle is news for now i'm at the out for me in the team here in berlin thanks for . the fight against the corona virus 10 damage. has the rate of infection been developing what does the latest research say. information and context the coronavirus update. on t w. 2 children to come to its. one giant trouble i'm. in no mood to see

a peek. inside a little p.j. should do the lead if you encounter. how will climate change affect us and our children. w dot com slash water. homeless during a palm demick. in the french capital paris health care workers deliver a mosque for family ties or and food to rough sleepers. in rome volunteers conduct temperature checks to test for a fever. and scenes like these are playing at all over the world. whether living on the streets or in close knit coming. homeless people are

especially vulnerable to covert 19. as cold weather bites in some parts of the world they face a double thrashed. many homeless people are older and have underlying medical conditions which leave them out increase risk for severe illness. homelessness organizations say social distancing and hygiene measures are often all but impossible to maintain. this is the job news covered 900 special i'm kate ferguson thanks for joining me an estimated 150000000 people around the world don't have a home lack of affordable accommodation unemployment a family breakdown and addiction are some of the major causes now during the pandemic homeless people have been pushed into a more precarious situation than ever and our next report will meet lukey a homeless man in the german city of cologne business used to be better.

every day. and hopes for the goodwill of the passers by but since start of the pandemic the tourist crowds have dissipated and most of the people keep their distance. there are fewer people around and fewer people who approach me because they're scared of corona i guess because i'm homeless live on the street on good days used to make up to 33 hours enough to feed himself and his dogs but in recent months he's had to sit here for an entire day. look he spends his nights on the bridge he's 35 and came from slovakia to find work. he's been homeless on and off for the past 5 years he lost his last home in august because his landlord didn't allow dogs. when their mother if i always have the dogs with me when i look for work compliers

want to see where i'm registered but without a home i have no registered address without an address i can't get a job without a job i can't get a flat and money. a vicious circle. at least twice a day look he makes a stop at the girl at a cafe for homeless people and you can learn central station he comes here to eat shower and charges phone. but even here things have changed only 8 people are nowadays allowed to sit in the cafe. before corona the host of 30 to 40 people at once. for many here this place is a lifeline and despite the new lockdown measures it's allowed to stay open. that's one of the main problems for homeless people which will probably get even worse during the winter months is that there are fewer day shelters and indoor spaces for them to spend time in and we're not the only institution which is have to restrict

its numbers others have also been affected. sleeping rough through the winter will definitely be challenging for looky and he's also worried about corona especially because he can do so little to protect himself. because i want to stay healthy and are trying to be careful but how can i take all the necessary precautions when i live on the street i'm always in town with my dogs i meet other homeless people i can always get infected and i'm always at more risk than other people who. roof over his head that's a new keys biggest wish during the current crisis then he can look for a job again and no longer have to rely on help from others. for more and if they see let's talk to frank spain event director of the european federation of a national organization of working with the homeless mr speight event welcome what do we know about how the homeless community is experiencing this pandemic where i

think it's important to note that most homeless people are homeless people in general are more vulnerable to 19 then the general population basically for one reason is because they have beat existing health conditions that make them more vulnerable and also because their situation the situation they leaf in make them more than the like most homeless people live in shelters i don't have to explain to you without following the guidelines imposed by the government such as staying at home. playing social distancing is extremely difficult when you're in a shelter so i think the homeless population is really movable or there are groups of society for the 1000 problem and with all those factors in mind what can you tell us about covert 1000 rates among the homeless are they getting access to testing and treatment. well in the rates it's difficult to see because it is very

few countries are actually quite like that they thought the infections amongst the homeless people but what we know is that that he's a bit of a difference between the 1st wave in the 2nd wave that we're currently experiencing in the 1st wave the echoes we get from the homeless shelters is that the hot be able to contain the spread of the disease in the homeless shut the system now in the 2nd wave that seems to be different and we hear from countries like france for instance where a study was get it out. of the system in bodies in the bodies legion and they found that in all the shelters that they investigated the over 50 percent of the book lesion who was actually infected by $1000.00 so we think it took a little bit of fine for the vita's to end that into the shelter system into the shelters but that is currently the case in quite

a few countries and when the fight is these circulating in the shelter system it's but it's very quickly because so many people live together there are many shelters are overcrowded. what our government's doing to protect the whole method if either any best practices that you know off. well governments are many governments are doing things certainly emergency measures it has been quite remarkable how creepy many governments have been able to get people street homeless people you could say off the streets as but they can't measure they were new shut the banks were created as were used to accommodate homeless people then put a leaf even some countries used. a b. and b. flats to find accommodation for homeless people on the sea so. as as emergency response many countries did actually quite well if i can give you one example of

a concealed a seat on the particular whether it is dublin really house managed to keep the infection rates anybody if anybody knew it was so. that's one thing in terms of the long term solutions it's only a few countries that actually use the 1000 they make to change the way they dress fulness is because it's obvious that a show that is not a solution to homelessness homeless people meet housing often with supports housing is important but that is some countries that use the 1000 pound they make as a lever to actually change the way the address homelessness and the netherlands would be a good example the government there has just decided to invest 15000000 euro in housing solutions for homeless people in order to get as groups the seed to use the abundant make to say what ok we can not we have to go beyond the emergencies bones and actually think or providing sustainable hosing solutions with supportive

necessary for homeless people. and you think that anything we can learn from the fund and make that might actually help tackle home if in the future. well what we've learned is that it is over but it is important it is the housing is the best protection against good 19 and instead any limit and actually against or sort of vision for the health problem so putting people into shelters as an emergency measure is fine it's probably progress but it's not a safe place for homeless people to be so you actually need housing housing is the best pull that shit against a pandemic and i hope that that will sink in with with the governments with the decision makers not in the future they will put more emphasis on. the people homeless people as quickly as possible to housing and provide to support messes that housing is probably one of the most stark the social determinants of health and i think that has now become quite obvious thanks ben event from the european federation of national organizations working with the whole mess thank you so much

thank you very. time now to answer one of your questions over to our science correspondent there equivalence. how long does it typically take in europe to approve a back scene after phase 3 trial results are published. under ordinary circumstances not in the midst of a public health emergency the scientific evaluation carried out after phase 3 trials by the e m a the european medicines agency it takes time developers 1st have to submit testing data and what's called a marketing authorization application that governs general approvals for medicinal products throughout the e.u. a board at the agency called the committee for medicinal products for human use is required to submit a scientific verdict on the application within $210.00 days it then passes that

opinion on to the european commission which makes a decision on whether or not to grant an approval within $67.00 more days so all in all the process can take between 9 and 10 months. but that's under ordinary circumstances in the midst of this pandemic the e m a has set up a special task force to help fast track covert 19 treatments and therapies it allows for accelerated action in a number of ways for vaccines a key change is that developers don't have to wait until all of their data is final before submitting it for approval but have been able to submit it instead in batches while the trials are still ongoing a process called a rolling review so in the end the formal assessment will take much less time for covert $1000.00 back scenes that have proven safe and effective in trials because

the e m a has cleared the way for what's called conditional. marketing authorisation. you can submit your questions for a character via our egypt channel for all the latest on the pandemic go to g.w. dot com slash covert 19 until next time for me the team is back to take. the going gets tough the brits in agreement is here. the most it's more than sweet. our report is big it mass and mass has travel through the u.k. the e.u. and beyond. breaks it winners and losers closer. on d w. eco india. telling tales with textiles

but we all stick up for freedom freedom of speech and freedom of press. giving freedom of choice global news that matters d. w. made for mines. leaving. my faith it was. great since the great good liberation. if you believe. that once again you. will. been covering brags it since the beginning

and i'm now joined by big mass our correspondents from london and dear mountains who is in brussels for us it's a huge story the story of the u.k. leaving the e.u. untangle in decades of integration we spent years interviewing politicians campaigners even body language experts and now after traveling across the u.k. as well as the continent and even the seats we're taking a moment to select our past no biggest breck's of losers and some of the winners too. maybe we won't have to have gunships maybe we can use diplomacy. and allow access maybe to some but not to all.

for those really fuse the protective about his fish he's a fisherman and hastings that's on the southern english coast and his family have been there for generations for centuries really what if you're looking for the winners of cracks that we've met them in the english channel just off the british coast of some of northern europe richest fishing grounds british fishermen are now able to fish much more freely and that's exactly what paul joy wanted to do take backs often prefer to call to. on the right that's one of their aspects of rex that we take back control of their territorial waters. that means that they're kicking out to european official and the dutch for example and they've been fishing here for hundreds of years they will have less access to the fishing grounds of the british coast. so it's 4 in the morning and we're standing in this huge dutch fish factory some ships there kathy. up to 80 percent of their fish in u.k.

water the whole industry relies on this catch and it relies on running at full capacity much less than that and it could collapse but it's also an emotional thing what used to be our colleagues richer our colleagues our friends working together in european fisheries politics and all of a sudden it's turned upside down as if they are strangers as if we are strangers and that is a very very bad feeling. for male which is france's big fishing port people very much feel the same way and you know what ironically what's safe them is a matter of taste the thing is that british fish eaters don't really like what's in their own waters like herring for example a macro or a that all get sold to europe but what they do like cod for example for their fish and chips this is something that they have to buy of the european fisherman so

europe is really the biggest market and a huge trading partner when it comes to fish. british fisherman maybe you they sell i would say about 70 percent of their catch to the you market. and without a trade deal in place all that fish that british fish would have been subject to massive tariffs and barriers. a cliff. no deal breaks it in other words would have put them straight out of business and still paul fault it was worth the risk. is a long term goal. i think we've got to go a long way before we see gains we've been anything to anything with the industry banking financial monetary economy they're all going to suffer in the short term

but it's something we're quite happy to do so that we have a long term benefit of controlling their own fees and controlling our own destiny his passion for control over the sea was widely shared by u.k. politicians and we saw that throughout those endless negotiations again and again so it often felt like britain was much more concerned about fishing than for example or other much more important parts of the economy like for example the city of london fishing is less than 0 point one percent of their economy so why all the fuss is something that you might ask i think it took you a while to understand what on earth was so important about fish and in the end it was all about patrie optics symbolism this idea that britain is an independent coastal state.

i just became so aware of it. you know you just you run into it you know and out of it but it's not a functioning border and if that was to change it changes everything and it changes not just the landscape of the country but it changes the functioning of the country on her own alex has been crossing the border numerous times and without any difficulty it's a completely open border and mostly they're not even signs that tell you that you're crossing an actual border from a repub. league of ireland over there through northern ireland and the u.k. . it used to be one of the most famous borders in all of europe but for the wrong reasons this passionate struggle to keep the places apart or to bring them together costs thousands of lives. it's only recently that it's all been quite with a peace deal but also within you support and integration. to grasp what is

still at stake in northern ireland just take a look at belfast there are these huge peace walls and like in berlin based become a tourist attraction only these walled still sort of paupers they keep people apart people who would fight each other over whether to stay part of the u.k. or to join the republic of ireland. it was really chilling to meet the final he was all about fighting for a united ireland needing him felt like going back in time to the 1970 s. . it was talk about the irish republican army the iraqi and of dying and of killing for the cause. we will commemorate barry volunteers and this community for us ari volunteers. who were martyred paid the ultimate sacrifice for irish

freedom and i owe them a bit of this and i mean war but 1st they have republicans have traditionally saw that as long as. the irish people have their interests not occupation by any means by any means also with mobile that would include both arms that's been traditionally been the republican viewpoint well the majority of people in northern ireland voted to remain with the. those who voted leave did so because they saw this is an opportunity to show that they are part of the u.k. and separate from the republic of ireland. it was all about leaving one union in order to stay in another union but some are now requesting that maybe. if i had the opportunity to turn back time and read a fractured vote i would be encouraged to change my mind and program and simply because the issues that already existed. have been compounded by the practical and

we fought long and hard in this country to. data sectarianism try and make a better future for all our. on the praxis issue as recorder a community. while they were part of the european union people who know the nolen didn't have to choose whether they were british or irish or base they didn't have to choose one identity over another and trade between northern ireland the republic of ireland the u.k. and the you used to be very easy but not anymore hot border between northern ireland and the republic of ireland could be avoided but it has been replaced by a border basically in the irish sea between. the u.k. and northern ireland and we are bound to see some form of custom controls.

so we found frustration and even bitterness in the republic among people who would now face more obstacles when they're sending things like for example forklift trucks to great britain and also to the rest of the e.u. if you ask anyone in the irish population of course this is being imposed on the irish population and in that sense it is modernist but the problem is of course we did not have the control on this the control of it belonged to the u.k. voters for this result so it's not a result that the amish population would have wanted for. as for northern ireland bracks it may have actually helped those who want to see northern ireland cut itself loose from the u.k. so the republican cause may be the winner of bracks and so irish reunification is suddenly not an unrealistic prospect anymore and it's new and it's a direct result of bracks and.

there's a real possibility that breaks it could trigger the end of the united kingdom scotland very much has a strong identity and a big part of that is not being english scotland just had an independence referendum just 6 years ago and they voted to actually stay in the u.k. but that was before bracks that many scots really really don't want to leave that up and they resent the english for voting for bracks it. it still gives me shivers when i think about that surely morning last winter we met up with some very brave scottish souls they were windows from us and they were braving the waters off the coast of fadden bro all year round they are not a political on the whole never extremely polite but they had very clear words for the english who had voted for brakes it. says we don't start off england and unfortunately the england. yes give us our independence equal we can look after

ourselves nerd and feeling that we're being torn out to. fight. with african century and it's horrible the m.p. tony shepherd represents the scottish national party in the u.k. parliament and we saw him in his constituency office in edinburgh we have had a lot of extremely generous friend overtures from other european governments saying that if things pile britain leaves the european union and scotland takes political control of its own affairs that scotland would be welcome in the european union. so the scottish nationalists are a clear winner here all recent opinion poll saying that the scottish people the majority of them want to go their own way and that they want to be independent now .

the what is in the car being are not half as chilly as in scotland but when we travel thousands of kilometers to the island of. what we found is that people there were just as annoyed about bracks as people. should have had a chance to participate in the brits and that no other people should decide on going straight it puts us in a precarious position because. economically we might be outsiders advantage but. it does not make us feel to be a part of. invidious territories we are part of the european union under britain. and we probably would suffer in a most of them have british passports but because of the british overseas territory and only partly governed by the u.k. the $15000.00 or so islanders didn't have oppressive vote. we were there just after

a big hurricane had hit in 2017 but people reckon it will do much more damage than that what we already know is that last all you subsidies which made up a big part of the island's budget. all relations with this next door neighbor so much are now much more complicated because someone is part of france and therefore it's still part of the you. rely on summertime for trade transport and health care and your passports go. they as well as the scots are being pulled out of the e.u. against their will so the news as here of the ordinary people just like in scotland brags it has boosted those and will who won independence.

so there we were and i in the city of london it's europe's biggest financial hub and the city is enormously important for the u.k. we have the skills and the knowledge of the culture you know to handle. the financial sector and perhaps other countries within europe don't have that. financial services contribute over 10 percent of the tax revenues for the u.k. . i can still see her standing there at this desk surrounded by glass in this imposing skyscraper that says you know power. it was just after the break the vote that we went to see in the head of noise of the insurer in the bill told us that they had full 1000000000 euros worth of business with e.u.

clients or finance. services were largely left out of the trade talks so she was hoping for what is called passport to the right to continue to trade with the e.u. if we can continue with passport ing that is our ideal situation we've been talking about that even before the referendum we said it's so important because that's really that gives us the ability to provide insurance to our customers in the e.u. 27 so if that could continue that would be just tremendous but now there is no passport whatsoever and financial firms have really been hammered by bret's it is estimated that already about $10000.00 jobs have been relocated to other places in the e.u. and more than a trillion pounds in assets has been moved from the u.k. to other destinations in the u. that's about 110th. all the assets that are managed in the u.k. even though it's still the most important financial hub the new year of the city of

london is clearly a brand city and its position is likely to diminish father the winner other financial centers. frank for luxembourg they all have already profited from. it and many. of them compete and. under neath my country undernet for my generation because i passionately believe in the european project and i passionately believe that rex is going down the. side. of things that. have been completed and what my linux a was doing she was fighting really desperately for a 2nd present referendum she turned herself into e.u. supergirl and she camped outside parliament she really put her life on hold she

stopped studying she only wanted to stop bricks and there were others like her for example sami on a wall or they both had a big presence on social media but it didn't do the trick so the problem was that young people came too late they voted overwhelmingly in the referendum to stay in the european union but not enough of the cave men showed up to vary it so they lost and they lost a lot they simply call and do whatever parents were able to do which is to just easily live work travel study on the continent indeed. it also works in other directions for you since i met for instance this polish account. he's one of 3000000 new citizens who has made the u.k. their. so now they can stay in the u.k.

they can register with the government's new settlement scheme but it's just not that easy they can't just come here and work as easily as they used to be able to do but ideal program when you're young it was in that you can move from one city to another about who is going from country to country like you moving in just your own don't you country internally and dot dot dot dot dot was there he argued everyone who came to ukraine ok who doesn't belong and suddenly removed to a different city and suddenly you say also if you can only be in the city you have to go dark you cannot do something i was next you could you haven't been prepared when you've been moving to distant to do to this country and. many of the people who tried to make a life in the u.k. decided to go home and basically take their expertise with the. bros and that number as a friend of mine she had been working as a consultant emergency doctor number and i put up with

a 100 children packed to move back to dublin. for me the uncertainty around and trying to plan for their future if we were to say here is one of the big motivators but for the 2 of them i don't really know where they. are for them if they stay on here for a 2nd with her and. what are they going to be allowed to will it defend them thousands of you noses and doctors have now got home and it's a massive problem for the u.k. health service especially with the corona pandemic there are around 100000 unfilled positions in the sector and that means patients are losing out. the windows here the committed great city as they could not have forseen the pandemic of course but any short term disruption was always going to be worth it for them. for a moment it seemed onslaught whether the decision to leave might be revulsed so they showed up outside parliament clearly upset at the top of that. breakfast and

it wasn't just older people by the way there were also young people that had come pain for greg since like others grant and his sister beatrice they were both still at school at the time enable ideas like democracy and something you can't take this for granted and i think yeah you know i had friends saying yeah i would be able to do my rasmus and it's like well you know 17400000 people different leave some people on this privileged. promised even bats was so proud of his product of what he has achieved we spend half a day on his lessons field and that's when he voiced his frustration at how people had voted in the referendum. i don't think. people realised how much we depend on foreign labor coming in.

most farmers actually didn't vote for breads even though. many of them depend quite heavily on either subsidies and doing their own friend in the bread city has had from those that this money would be replaced and nobody would be out of pocket to bragg's it but now it looks like within the next 3 years farmers could lose at least half of what they received under the e.u. system that would be a disaster particularly for small farms. we could easily see. a very substantial percentage of problems disappear family found just go on and that won't be something you can do so i did for the 10 years time perhaps politically we got our room because. once farmers leave the land and go on something else to do i generally don't come back and write. the french language and son edward all sheep farmers in suffolk and southern england they are the 4th generation to form this

really beautiful spot and they hope that one day it was children will take over the phone. they sell most of their land to france the french like a lamb like this which has a good conformation. they want them weighing around about $18.00 to $20.00 kilos as a carcass. not too much fat just a little fat and that's that's the ideal and that's the highest value market they did not vote for. frank was just laughing at the idea that breaks it would cut red tape from brussels will there be any less. there won't be any less civil servants to like paper so we will still have lots of paper and the farmers incorrectly blamed europe for the paper when it was actually our own people that created lots of people big farms will be able to deal better with the paperwork and even buy up land from small farms who go bust so at the end of the day they may be

the big winner it was a run on the road to run a wife or wife from europe i think is is a is a better thing for us as a country and we're in a world market anyway and that's of course true for all exports. but for manufacturers like the ocean move but industry for example breaks it produces really huge problems the advantage that british and european manufacturers had. they could move col parts between them really easily and really quickly and that would be gone for the moment we're sailing to germany from anywhere in europe like we're showing you that if we are outside of the european market it will be an export for export lot of export people work we've got a lot of money tied up with her for the 3 of us in the 4th will have to do a lot of things to do that we're going to. be like al is a real self-made man whose company was selling parts of dime learned b.m.w.

and we interviewed him just before the date for breakfast it and like absolutely every executive in the car industry was very very worried about press it. investment in the u.k. car industry has plummeted since then it's 80 percent down and covered has made things just was but if we look purely at the bread to defect some eastern european countries are winning because some manufacturers and some in the car industry have already relocated some of their production to eastern europe. we're looking over at the u.k. from europe i can't help but feel frustrated. press it will fold in the u.k.'s this big wind wind and what we have now is

a new sleuth so it's very hard to see any significant advantages in in all of this . after all the people we met after all the presence well was travelled these people are basically mainly lost out tensions are clearly running out yet westminster we've got these draw european trade just as here for months so i'm a german i'm living in the u.k. my children were born here and i feel at home here but for me. the e.u. is also important and it's important as a peace project these are the roots of the e.u. but that doesn't really resonate in the u.k. and i remember when i was talking to a friend about this before the referendum i explained this to her and it was a completely new idea for her and she voted for granted. i'm quite confident that over the years we'll manage to form a new relationship like becoming friends after divorce but what we will not

have is this institutional pressure which we have in the e.u. to solve problems to tackle problems together. in today's world you need to team up to tackle global issues like the environmental crisis like regulating tech giants like migration and without the u.k. a team europe lacks a key player can take back control as the phrase goes of our money our borders our laws so the brigadiers now need to define what actually is global britain what do they mean by it and how will it work and they need to prove that this acrimonious divorce process that is really worth that and that there are new opportunities for the u.k. because the breadth of that we're seeing now is much much harder than what was originally promised.

tears were shed when the u.k. flag was lowered outside the european parliament that night and i remember i was moved to. and i kept thinking the only positive thing that comes out of this is that the rest of the e.u. will see what the u.k. is walking away from and treasure it more.
