for that so what would be the way forward that there that is remote learning going to be the foreseeable future of schooling or is there another way that they could safely reopen well it's a combination of things the vaccination has started as you have reported and we hope to do number of people getting vaccinated are substantially increasing over the next weeks we have to learn to really that the locked on is is working hopefully and we have to maintain to see as minimal people as possible so that they lock down actually is working and we get the numbers down we need to get these numbers down otherwise you will not see any relief for the hospital staff and any relief for the i.c.u. use let's talk about that mass vaccination program because it's no secret that germany has had a bumpy start there distribution of the vaccine is falling behind what was planned so how concerned are you about that situation where we know since weeks to the number of scenes available normally in the beginning of the end of the exactly

what's happening and i do not know all the details but for sure you could have organized in a different way in other countries is certainly better other countries are worse so we definitely have to continue to think about how to improve the situation and to vaccine as many people as possible and what specifically do you think needs to be done there to make sure that as many people as possible can get the vaccine as soon as possible. well have enough vaccines available 1st of all i think the test and us are ready to stuff is ready and as soon as enough vaccines are available hopefully we will see that more people or people get vaccinated and what are germany's locked out exit plans i mean what is the way out of this in the end there's been now multiple lockdowns here it seems like they haven't worked we're now talking about an extension is there an end in sight. well in germany we have to understand with that we didn't really have a hard lock down where we have to stay whole what is called a few at 6 pm or so and we really cannot leave the homes in many of the states in

germany so and we decided to leave christmas open a new us open to see friends and family up to 5 people from different households so that was in my opinion good decisions so we definitely have to understand that we need to work together now to get these numbers down and then we can discuss what we can do to open public life hopefully as soon as possible a strong call there for a continued lockdown until the make is brought under control tokyo's card epidemiologist and the director of the institute of public health at the sheraton a hospital and you very much. thank you for having. india is testing its nationwide code $1000.00 vaccine distribution systems as it prepares to roll out an inoculation program the trial includes the entry of data into an online platform that will monitor a vaccine delivery now this dry run comes a day after regulators met to review the potential vaccine candidates including that coke is shields developed by astra zeneca and oxford university india hopes to

inoculate $300000000.00 people in the 1st 6 to 8 months of the year. and earlier we talked about this with our correspondent in delhi in the show while we asked whether there are concerns about how the government can inoculate 300000000 indians by the summer. the government has laid out of a detailed plan on how many it fust that's to target $30000000.00 people who will be considered for. this includes has countless bust and then sadly she listens to chart people but the true challenge will emerge when we then move to the other 217000000 people that india will to lacson aid by the some of which includes everybody a lot of the age of 50 as well as those below the age of 50 who have but it is now this is on data that has got to be a or did in an organized manner and you know he is in the country so now the priority lists are being built across the country people will have the option to

enjoy on the dish to the platform for him to go in after they would be given a pre-designated spot to show up and get their pre-booked vaccine but of course the tracking is due to a crucial step and this and each vaccines and us will fight it seems that it will only carry out 100 vaccinations but did it which means that thousands of sites and doesn't be needed across the country looking ever should be doing at this docket. our car is on his new machine while there let's take a look now at some other international stories french police have begun recording the details of revelers leaving an illegal new year's eve party in the western region of brittany some 2 and a half 1000 people from france and abroad attended the rave was held in violation of a nationwide curfew and ban on gatherings and continued until a saturday morning. japan is considering declaring a nuke over 1000 emergency after

a record surge in cases the governors of tokyo and 3 nearby prefectures urged the national government to call a state of emergency to stem the spread of the virus the government says it must 1st consult with health experts. ruling party candidate mohamed abuzz whom has won the 1st round of presidential elections in the west african nation of. the electoral commission says he will have to face the country's former president in a runoff on february 20th this vote could mark the 1st peaceful transfer of power in the country since independence. and it's often been called the forgotten war the conflict in yemen the latest victims were 3 people killed as a shell exploded at a wedding party in the port city of hadera both the saudi backed government and iran backed rebels blame each other for the attack their 5 year long conflict has left over $100000.00 people dead and many more starving.

saeed is just a year and a half old and he's fighting for his life his parents brought him to this hospital in yemen's capital sanaa dozens of starving children arrive every day but in many cases the doctors a powerless to help. the don't go at it but then how others they don't to see what on being paid we have no medicine for the sick children there's no food for them i don't even though them all nourished some of the mothers are really desperate they can't breastfeed their children because they too have a starving mobs recently made of sarah and as with all of the 5000000 children in yemen don't have enough to eat the u.n. figures show many have to go to work instead of to school and their plight is only worsening the country's been at war since 2015 leaving its economy in ruins and now yemen is being hit by the coronavirus. charities say this is the world's

worst humanitarian crisis. the situation in yemen is very serious we are very close to the stage of the clearing of famine in yemen because of the deteriorating food security situation for millions of people across the country i'd like to say some 1500000000 euros is needed to help give many survive the winter with money running out as the situation worsens. and we turn to the united states now where the republican controlled senate has voted to override president on the trumps veto of a major defense bill with just a week to go before he leaves office that's the 1st time congress has rejected a trump veto the vote unlocks more than $700000000000.00 worth of military spending . this year's holiday season was cut short for u.s. senators as the body convened for a rare new year's day session of the world while a final push to pass a coronavirus aid bill fell through and senators voted to override president

trump's veto of a sweeping defense bill majority leader we passed this legislation 59 years and a row and one way or another we're going to complete the 60th annual m.d.a. and pass it on to law before this congress concludes on sunday. president trump opposed the bill because it includes provisions allowing military bases named after confederate military commanders to be renamed. he also objected to the bill because it calls for the withdrawal of u.s. troops from germany to be reconsidered. in a rare show of bipartisan unity the u.s. senate delivered the president a stinging rebuke just weeks before his 2 to leave office 81 republican and democrat votes were far more than the 2 thirds majority needed to override the presidential veto the objections of the president in response trump turned to

twitter saying the senate had missed an opportunity he said not passing the coronavirus aid bill was unfair and not smart. time for some sports news now and the french of champions have confirmed. you know as their new coach a just no talk english side at tottenham hotspur to the champions league final in 29 but was sacked after a poor run of results shortly after and he's not coached a team since arjun time replaces tomas to the german coach who was recently fired by p.s.g. despite having one of the domestic league and he's cup last season. and the wind as late as early saturday games are now over so let's take a look at all the results from match day 14 so far frankfurt indented leverkusen title hopes when you want to berlin to braman gladbach down the bielefeld freiburg of being to hoffenheim cologne at last to the clash between hesher berlin and shaka

kicks off soon so it got hosts like fish in a saturday's later game and on sunday dortmund up play a full spark and travel to it by ear. and schalke are hoping to end a run of $29.00 games without a win when they face hard to battle and shortly they're on target to set an unwanted record the longest winless streak of the bundesliga now the current holders of that title are a berlin team called tazz manya who set the record all the way back in the 1960 s. despite the negative connotations as many are not seen to relinquish their place in history. does money a bellino known throughout germany for $1.00 thing the disastrous $96566.00 season the cup win $31.00 matches without a win in the campaign a bundesliga record they also hold the record for the fewest goals scored in a season and the most goals conceded. but former player because says the small club is still proud to this day is competing for that one season in the bundesliga

. and congress i can say that we were of course proud to play at least one season in the bundesliga sometimes just to meet the expectations of you and also to never disappoint and to eventually realise when the opponent was simply better than us and then being a bit of all. but now their winless record is in danger of falling current bundesliga side shall cut doing their best to use up. they haven't won in 21 matches for the 7 time german champions it's an embarrassing predicaments. it's a threat to their identity they become surprisingly attached to this undesirable record and don't want taking take laurie. maybe it would be what the tried to break this record but i can't imagine that we did it once season and try to get it over the truth season so there's

a for me it's not competitive for us through the. shell to have just 2 games to save their reputation with a victory to zali biggest cheerleader will be. they want their record as the bundesliga worst ever tain to stand i guess that's a good update at this hour i'm claire richardson in berlin and such telling us. stories people for information. the fans they want to express d.w. on facebook and twitter up to date in touch follow us. walking emigrants. take on the police will stop that. is the solution to their flight could be fatal but going back is not an option.

i'm on and they are stuck in the spanish border area where they're waiting for a chance that will probably never come shattered dreams starts january 18th on t w. isn't that cute robots like these am meant to replace live pets i meant leading robel pets designers in japan to see if their inventions are more than just toys for techies join me for a topic today on. so-called personal robots or robots designed to assist in our daily lives have been developing in great strides apart from humanoids like pepto ozzie mole we also have robots that look like animals could they make that they have pets could they even

replace cats and dogs as i was loyal companions i asked hiroshi girl one of the world's most renowned roboticists of course i think we want to hear for. the. here not to the robot fair its official there's sometimes they cannot take care of the armor plates over and over doesn't eat and doesn't do them but things that are much easier for their. that keeps lonely seniors kompany in japan they take this concept very seriously and have been practicing it for years i experienced it myself on the streets of tokyo i have a robot that i know i will. his name is sally. seems perfectly normal today pet robots have become quiet versatile one of the

latest additions to the market is this little guy the so-called love was developed by konami he is a leading figure in the field of emotional robotics and also the inventor off pappa but unlike love god doesn't use language at all it comes in the case with adorable battles and i must admit it really talked at my heartstrings. it's equipped with cameras for facial recognition so called slim technology for spatial orientation and over 50 contacts sensors. creators say that it's an autonomous robots. this response patterns are determined by deep meaning. algorithms. the goal was to stimulate the most behavior possible. so that the movie and it's only could create a you tube. first of all you have to study the brain your i think and i got to

get how did you miss think and how do they use their brain one to get a deal more. another while to study is the relationship between pads and humans in your one it's a subsection of a theology to get it on so we studied these 2 fields. and together they tell you a bit about what love is all about that something you think you know. took 4 years to develop. it cost around $45000000.00 euros when i asked about data security tell me how i should emphasize that all the data collected is not stored in the cloud in the robots it's. the girls require regular software updates and backups. there are many robots out there that have a lot of information stored but people don't actually trust. the quitters.

my goal is to create a trustworthy robot could take quite annoying. storing data locally rather than on a cloud service sounds like a safe solution is specially considering that love needs lots of personal data to function well it fills my home scans my face and knows exactly when i common goal that's delicate information i wouldn't want falling into the wrong hands i was truly surprised at how lifelike love it seemed and it really was able to stir up true emotions high in social bonds like love all that are produced almost exclusively in japan one reason is that japan is known for being crazy about tech. robots have a long tradition in japan and it was there that the plastic egg tamagotchi was invented over 18000000 virtual chiclet have been sold worldwide since the mid ninety's the robo pop i bow by sony has also become

a popular favorite in maine. artificial intelligence provided in the mid 2000 production came to a temporary halt as the company underwent restructuring had sony anticipated the outrage this would spark in japan it might of reconsider it to the 150000 eyeballs that have been sold by then withdrawing support was like a death sentence one that probably almost wouldn't stand for to this day you can find dogs that repair old models how can a computer get so much love even scientists are scratching their heads test with children and adolescents show 60 percent attribute emotions to the robot dog and enjoyed giving it orders just as much as a live animal the newest i would generate has been on the market since 2018 very popular in the 1st time of year over $20000.00 models were sold in japan alone despite the steep pricing. round shapes expressive eyes complex

movements this isn't meant to be a toy viable alternative to a pet. equipped with cameras voice recognition software and contact sensors bibles can recognize and react to their owners they can live up to 100 different voice commands and quite a few tricks currently this robotic dog costs around 2400 euros this includes 3 years of subscription fees for the cloud connection needs i've always generated a ton of data and it's saved and processed in the cloud like you know this big deal we're using deep learning technologies and big data to supply ibo with additional features that. plays a big part in how eyeball works with us. when it comes to dating security the company prove this is the movie is dr song for 3rd parties or use for internal purposes. they say the cloud based is elementary to find each i book is very

personal and. when used. a multiple of the any i go that you will buy will develop in a different way based on the user's lifestyle and the surroundings if they feet of . those will develop in different ways. they will act differently and to feel differently. sensitive private data safe to look lots of it doesn't sound too vincent to me on the other hand if my eyeball ever break i could simply transfer it's personality so i might hold into a new model that's wild but is restoring movements facial and voice recognition all that it takes to have a personality as a dog owner. sure isn't it the unexpected and sometimes even pleasant moments that really create the bond between humans and animals like when he's stolen my socks again not that i will left me completely unmoved but i still doubt i could truly

connect with a robot dog in the long run if you're not a dog person anyway there's something else. what is it we asked passers by in tokyo's trendy shibuya district. to. look. i know what it is. it feels nice very cute. but this is i really like cats but unfortunately i'm allergic to them that look a little cons but i think this could make a good replacement. a little kind of surge for all those little known to the feeling is good with a tail. so cue ball as it's officially named didn't really raise any eyebrows in japan but here's how one german tourist responded well as you guessed this is. a vacuum cleaner. no idea or maybe

a cushion cleaner but it's not like in japan it's used as a surrogate cat of sorts i've got my 10 year old daughter would love one of these c.d.'s they cost $150.00 euro would you spend that much absolutely not. so it's an emotional companion to others just a cute toy but even though all the pillow is nothing like high tech robots like eyeball and love out it's still based on a bright idea that could only have come from to pat pets that provides comfort and joy with as all of the work involved like dogs and cats responds to touch its surface is covered with sensors the tail is powered by an engine that can perform 40 different movement sequences less technology less design and more room for the imagination. yeah i see and i want it up always

a curious being there it's not a cat and not a dog it doesn't really resemble any other pet. it's more like the enemy care. richter totoro oil money they're an imaginary being. even though. we want to give the owners more room for their own associations. there with the company behind this you kind engineering based in tokyo. since 2017 they've designed around 20 robots that are geared less towards functionality and more toward bringing joy to with. these cutters can measure brain waves and move according to the mood. and this communications robot can connect to the local y. find family members exchange messages with one another. they're all there or even rather than androids that are super clever i want to make something that forgives you and makes you feel good to what that's happening here i believe humans

want to interact with robots that they can open up to and share feelings with. stress reduction instead of performance optimizing the relaxing effect of this cuddly toy has already been proven across the board no matter the age of study with the robotics you know. that alzheimer patients who played with it regularly had lower and higher blood oxygen levels both a science for stress relief the test also showed fewer symptoms of depression. and required less pain medication than the reference rupe live animals are rarely allowed in retirement homes and hospitals here robert patz can be a real help but they can also give emotional support elsewhere after all humans want to be needed but the humans want a robot that relies on them and not the other way around. if love up was

a perfect being and didn't need any n. put or help from us it would not result in a strong attachment when i developed a love it often. fell or got stuck and i noticed that people seemed more happy to be able to help it rather than let it help them this was very interesting to me that if so humans prefer a robot that they can take care of not a perfect companion that makes sense to me what do you think. the pets of the future that is know and if you're interested in finding out more about robotic cats why you tube help there you can find more in-depth videos on the topic and a lot more on japan's passion for robots that's it for me to see you so.
