hours and days but we can already see that the number of cases is increasing as it's up to the industry fights watched like it's a blow to the government which is already facing criticism for extending the lock down and for a slower than expected rollout of vaccines and now the german interior ministry says it's preparing for possible attacks on coronavirus vaccination centers vaccine shipments all vaccine makers by anti vax is and conspiracy theorists germany's health minister is trying to reassure people and says the government say has to offer all germans the job by the end of august. even though we are at the peak of the pandemic now we have started a way out of the pandemic i know that many people feel it's not going fast enough and i too would like to have more vaccines available more quickly so that more people can get back to the natives. bon has also now

announced germany will be the 1st e.u. country to use an experimental antibody treatment to fight the virus that's the one donald trump took to help him recover from code 19 he said it made him feel fantastic the german government's no doubt hoping it'll have the same effect on people here. well let's bring in our chief political correspondent melinda crane who's standing by for us at the home but hospital well into as we understand staff have been ordered to shuttle quarantine what exactly does that mean. that's correct that means that the 1700 medical and technical staff who work here at the clinic have been directed to travel only from their homes to the clinic and back again and that special shuttles are being provided for that purpose to ensure that the staff do not infect any passengers for example on public transport or people in shops and
2:05 pm
as your report said the clinic is completely shut it is taking no new patients and those patients who have tested positive are in complete isolation cannot have any visitors with all the hardships that that entails they will match testing started over the weekend but just how serious could this outbreak become well we have 20 confirmed cases here so far 14 patients and 6 staff members but as the report said the clinic is now doing widespread testing some local media are reporting that there may be as many as 50 more cases here at the clinic but that number has not been confirmed neither has it been confirmed that in all those cases this would be the be 117 you taishan that's the british mutation that is so very highly infectious we're also hearing from the clinic leadership is that there is no evidence that this mutation was brought here by a patient or
2:06 pm
a member of the staff travelling back from britain or elsewhere in other words it appears that this virus mutation is now here circulating here in berlin already in the community what does that mean the and for the overall situation in germany. well that means 1st of all that the new travel restrictions that have been put in place here in germany asking people to forgo any non-essential travel and asking anyone who is traveling from an infection hotspot to provide a negative test and of course to obey strict warranty and measures that those measures will not stop the new mutations from gaining a foothold in germany and in fact the head of the federal chancellor rhee says he expects the mutations to become the dominant form of the virus in germany meaning that germans absolutely will have to double down on the corona restrictions double down on wearing effective masks double down on keeping social distancing measures
2:07 pm
in place and we have some of our biologists saying that hopes that these lock down and tight restriction measures could end by mid february may wind up being disappointed in fact we may see a need to continue a very strict lockdown beyond that point in time mind it just briefly because hospitals tired of border control delays with vaccination now even threats of sabotage germany seems to be losing its battle with the virus well perhaps not losing its battle in fact the overall infection numbers are really coming down now in comparison to the peaks that they reached in december but viral logis are saying that these new mutations are 6 to 8 times more transmissible than the. virus form that we've had here until now therefore indeed the infection risk remains very very high and it will be essential to see this kind of broad

2:10 pm
minister mark rotor warned against a possible surge of infections from the british mutation of the virus. hours after the curfew came into force this is all that's left of a covert testing center on the coast and in amsterdam riot police break up a mostly peaceful demonstration with water cannons the netherlands was one of the last e.u. countries to begin immunizing health work because with production delays slowing vaccination programs across europe a return to freedom here and elsewhere still looks alone why of. a foreign ministers are debating possible fresh sanctions against russia at a meeting today in brussels officials will discuss how they'll react to the detention of kremlin critic alexina valmy and to the arrest of thousands of his supporters during protests this weekend the e.u. has already imposed sanctions on russian individuals close to president putin after

valley's poisoning in organist but calls are growing among some member states to toughen. before the meeting german foreign minister heiko mass cold front of valley and the rest of protesters to be released immediately you have storage because the german government we already made clear at the time of mr obama's arrest that we cannot comprehend this move and demanded mr nirvana's immediate release after the demonstrations over the weekend is now also applies to the protesters who were detained by security forces. according to the russian constitution everyone in russia has the right to express their opinion and to protest so this must be allowed and the principles of the rule of law must be applied. sorts it was russia has always been committed to this so that's why we expect the peaceful protesters who were unjustly detained to be released immediately so that's no one for it sort
2:12 pm
of sort of hardness and. i'm joined now by our brussels correspondent ray get. foreign ministers mulling over how they'll respond what if any action do you think they'll take we will hear a lot of strong words again condemning the arrest of mr in the valley and also the arrest of 3000 $500.00 protesters over the weekend and the foreign ministers would also demand the immediate release of these people but you diplomats tell us that there will be no decisions on fresh sanctions there's already a sanctions regime in place in the novel in the case since october since the alleged poisoning of mist in the valley and the diplomats say this is enough we want to wait to sit and grade until next month and see if mr van even would be sentenced to more jail time now the bowl ticket states in particular are demanding
2:13 pm
restrictions more sanctions why does the e.u. struggle to find a unified voice when it comes to dealings with russia. for the baltic states as for most probably the neighbors of russia now and they feel more threatens and they often have a descending voice in the descending opinion when it comes to measures against russia. and also the european parliament is demanding sanctions against russia even the stop of the construction of the north stream pipeline in this part from russia to germany which is critical for many you states but in the end you ministers rule today issue one single statement they will speak with one voice but this words will be wreak at least seen from moscow. all right davies correspondent in brussels thank you let's take account of other stories making headlines this hour chinese
