without having much contacts of the people the few contacts i do. change my character a bit. i've been lonely without anyone to do things with. and i've really missed. it. but not before the pandemic around 30 children would come to this after school club in berlin every day now they're making do with $1.00 to $1.00 activities for a couple of hours a week or. some relied on the club for a hot meal to make sure they don't go hungry director bianca's on the feds prepares 10 to 20 meals a day for the kids to collect. but most things children need can't be packed up to take home. from an educational perspective it's the encouragement we give every day

that's being lost that's what's really difficult at the moment we can't carry out our everyday work in terms of inspiring the children quit showing them new perspectives and. the conversations we have here often open up a whole new world for these children and if that's not possible right now that's really sad. that's not. the crisis has hit children from poor families especially hard one in every 5 children in germany is growing up in or at risk of poverty with a household income of less than 60 percent of the national average they often have less space at home like the equipment they need for online learning and restrictions have made it harder to access supports. for the. children growing up in poverty this is a very hard year a last year when it comes to their education and social development and they just won't be able to catch up. so it's important that we support these families now and

don't wait until the crisis is over. because of a. childhood can't be pushed on ice for all children's resilience and adaptability this period will have long term consequences. an iranian diplomat has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for masterminding a foil bob plot in france in 2018. he who didn't appear at the court hearing in. and refused to testify in his trial last year was based in austria where he was arrested prosecutors say he was behind the plan to attack an 8 saudi arabian opposition group in france is requests for diplomatic immunity was rejected runs condemned the sentencing described it as illegal and a violation of international. correspondent barbara vessel in brussels can tell us more welcome barbara bring us more of the background to

this case. yeah this is straight out of john le carre this allows us to look into the secret dealings of the secret services of hostile nations in new york this man was the resident off the iranian secret service at the embassy in ghana and he worked there for several years obviously without everybody knew about it at least the secret services knew who he was but nothing really happened and then the must touch the israeli secret service gave it to to the european colleagues and said watch out he is really planning something nasty now he had brought in a handy little bag was explosive explosives from tehran on a regular flight handed this over in like some park to a belgian main incompetent was then supposed to travel to paris and where they were trying to blow up this opposition meeting by the way there well a lot of international guests there. donald trump

a lawyer rudy giuliani for instance and members of parliament of several countries so didn't this would have been tremendous political fallout had this plot really succeeded however the whole thing was so inept everybody involved could be caught and they found themselves then in court. because they had a number of these people had double belgian nationality and now they're supposed to go to jail which is something that never happens. doesn't right so i suppose. he was a diplomat so why didn't he have diplomatic immunity. then i have say the immunity applies to the country where you are credited you're not supposed to travel to other countries and commit criminal acts if you are then picked up by the police there then your host country can say ok we withdraw the immunity for him which was which was something that the that the austrians immediately did and so it was but

only of course he would say no i'm a diplomat i can do whatever wherever but that is not true legally and so his foot section was over once he was caught and the nice thing about. the german secret service is now having a field day with what they found in his car after they picked him up in germany because he had kept those very neat notebooks noted everything down over the years whom he met where and when how much money he paid to his agents so they can take now his whole network right so is this cooling or is this court ruling like it's effect already tense relationship between iran on the west yeah of course tehran the protests against this but what this means really so is that it's a sign of the west european countries saying listen we are fed up with this we know you're working here and you have been working here for years and attacks against

remnants in exile is something that happens again and again 2 years ago for instance in the netherlands kurdish politicians where attacked so we want to tell you tehran that we're fed up with this stuff that so it is a political message that is being sent here i think story well told thank you for that bob revised. and next time we check into a hotel you can perhaps expect a robotic reception i guess times in johannesburg has embraced a new technology that makes for a more coronavirus from the welcome. what time is brick to say. akron not through astern she's open for nice fixates makes nasty mid week and i'm going in there a 123 humanoid robots in johannesburg hotel sky they can do more than just answer gas questions they can also carry luggage and deliver room service they sort of how about with the smaller things that people need smaller things and we stuff would

usually be running up to fulfill his digital of a meal or delivering meals now we've got the facility really they can control that all of us in cells in saying get off and they can also have the the jet but i'm saying christians that we have usually taken advantage robots are finding their way into new roles in rich countries but they are rare in developing nations at this hotel guests and staff are happy about the addition the hotel manager says. it just creates such a nice vibe and excitement for the stuff in the in the stuff i have that. inside africa bowl is a special way they have the opportunity to to be part of this chain in being the innovators inside if you get a fatality rate and. the manager insists that his goal is not to replace staff in a country where nearly a 3rd of the workforce is unemployed. he believes the whole lot could help keep hotels open even during strict lock downs and help save jobs. he told

me. his real life our top story. the international criminal court has convicted awful more ugandan rebel commander of war crimes ranging from multiple murder to write and systematic forced marriages so many good will be sentenced later and could face life in prison. covered special is next i'll be back at the talk. with the. the fight against the corona virus pandemic. has the rate of infection been developing what does the latest research say. information and context the coronavirus update 19. next on t w. by value meal and i'm game did you know that

17000000 land was killed worldwide so that we can eat but it's not just the other little subtle suffering it's the environment we want on a journey to find ways out in the question if you want to know i always clip to the priest i hope trust changed me to this listen to our podcast on the claim that. he was a symbol of courage and resilience and now he's the latest publicly known casualty of this pandemic captain tom moore a world war 2 veteran who collected millions of pounds to support the british health sector in its fight against kobe of 19 now sir thomas succumb to the virus himself and britain's a bidding him farewell. but

most cope with 9000 deaths happen in obscurity far away from the public eye and often without a proper send off. more than 2200000 people have died from the corona virus worldwide so far some countries even have to create new space where the graves many cemeteries are like assembly lines of wakes and funerals. that hyundai made. has made one of the most traumatic experiences in a person's life even harder to cope with. welcome to our covered in special want to get germs and i have to say those images are hard to bear but that's the reality millions are living with since the start of

this pandemic the death toll is overwhelming also for those whose job it is to give the deceased a dignified sendoff. there should be a moment of prayer but there is no time for that there are simply too many coffins too many bodies arriving at the dubai crematorium in saxony. and some days there are more bodies than we can actually cremate on a single day. this is when us for our employees also because there is no end in sight. we are standing in the morning hall of our crematorium. it usually accommodates 90 people for the funeral services. unfortunately we had to convert the hall into a storage space because we could no longer keep up with the deaths strictly if

there was an additional. it's a difficult situation for us. because relatives can usually say goodbye to their loved ones here. but at the moment that's not possible because there's no purely. no room for a funeral service not all of the coffins represent deaths from the coronavirus but many of them are marked so. these people had to end their lives without a final hug from their loved ones. lutes spanish cares for the bereaved he is a pastor and. family sometimes only realize how dangerous the coronavirus can be once they've lost a loved one to it. when does your liberal me and i have contact with families who have lost a relative because of covert 19 to scorn or they're in

a state of shock and reconsidering things this 1st phase of mourning the so-called shock phase lasts longer for them because something inexplicable something in comprehensible has been added namely this pandemic the panda me. the pandemic is far from over. many more crim a sense will be carried out here get a hold monster is worried about the future that of the assuming that the number of infections remains high it follows that the number of deaths will too if there are a few days in. and that means we won't see any relief here until mid february at the earliest kind and. it is a winter of mourning and as it is in many places in the world during the pandemic. tossed in the bank is a 1000 attala just at the university of paso which means that he engages in the

academic study of death and dying and he joins us now good to have you with us now people die all the time we all know that but is losing a loved one now during this pandemic heart of the normally or is that just our perception. well i think it's hard all the time it doesn't really matter what the circumstances are if you use a law to warn you you deal with different things than just the cause of death i mean of course it's tragic to have a pandemic and so many people die it's the sheer mass that really makes us feel uncomfortable when reading the news but full their families for the brief ones i don't think it really matters so much but i mean the difficult part of mourning and i know that from personal experience is the part of letting go and that is usually helped by rituals and ceremonies that count to take place now how can we compensate for that to help us get closure. well that's true that the problem is that they've

been emic has some effects on all those rituals you can still have rituals of course but you cannot have the additional way of letting go in in a burial for instance and you cannot talk to the funeral director in a way that you could do before corona struck us and people nowadays tend to individualize their morning more than they did decades ago so for some not much change because they say if i lose the last one i will treat this problem in my very personal unknown way so i don't meet those collective rituals that's the one perspective but the other perspective is people say i need the usual the traditional surrounding i need to traditional rituals i need a. you know i need a way to let go that is that has traditional bones with everything that i've learned from my childhood on how we treat the dead and those people are really desperate because they cannot have what they are used to or what they expect from.

letting go and losing someone they love i joked i talked to some people who said i wanted to go to the funeral director and all i got was an e-mail link and i should do everything online and type in what my my wishes are no one was willing to talk to me in person and i just have to pay that and just be good on a regular basis and for them it was really terrible right i mean and i need something to death death is an extremely personal experience as pleasant as it can get if we tend sides let's talk about those on the other side i mean how important is it for a dying person to have family or friends around because this is something that a lot of those who are left behind really grapple with. yeah that's true most people that die and i consciously know i am dying for instance in

a hospice or maybe of cancer or something like that and most people want their loved ones with them definitely their friends death partners to children that's the usually very small minority say no i don't want them with me because i don't want to you know give them an impression of a person dying and having these these pictures in their minds forever but this is a minority most people feel more comfortable and to to the pandemic this is not or not as much possible as it used to be in the 1st round and in the spring of 2020. dead lock out even on those hospices people where not a lot only one person was allowed to attend to recent someone this is now changed in many parts of germany at least but still it's far from being perfect because you know if you want to see someone who's about to die you don't really it's not the 1st thing on your mind is the hygenic elements of it or the roots that come with it

that you just want to be with this person is an emotional mental and emotional matters and not really cannot be compensated by rational measures and i tossed a bank of there. just at the university off apostle so somebody who really studied death and everything related to that thank you so much for sharing your insights with us. of course to prevent as many cold 9000 deaths as possible we tend to have vaccines but the virus is not making it easy time for your questions now and correspondent derek williams. wouldn't modifying vaccines due to new variance be a huge undertaking. modifying vaccines would be a lot easier and faster in some ways than you might think but it would still be a pretty big deal most of the vaccines approved so far work by getting your cells

to create viral proteins so basically the shot you're getting contains genetic blueprints for example in the form of messenger r.n.a. which instructs your cells to make the spike protein that dots the outside of sars kovi to those proteins provoke your immune system to recognize the virus without ever being exposed to it when the spike protein changes due to mutation making a new variant more transmissible for instance then in theory we can quickly figure out what's causing the changes at the genetic level and just update the blueprint in our vaccines to tell the body to start making a variant spikes in addition to the original ones so it's not all that complicated theoretically but but the reality of changing back scene production processes even a little would pose some pretty major challenges i think and makers are facing

enough of those at the moment already then there's the question of the kind of trials that updated vaccines would have to go through to be considered safe and effective would manufacturers have to start from square one again no probably not but but altered vaccines would certainly have to go through. some testings so so changes would take months to implement fortunately we have some experience with this overall situation flu vaccines have to be updated regularly to remain effective so at least there is a framework in place to help guide healthcare authorities. back to captain tom moore he may be gone but his legacy lives on the super fundraiser has inspired 11 year old football image and power point hydel she is
