get much worse. and this could absolutely turn into a complete humanitarian disaster and myanmar countries who just a couple years ago people were talking about the potential for well now we have to wonder if it's going to turn into a failed state before it does what would it take at this point to resolve this crisis is there any chance for talks a dialogue. there's still time but the countries that haven't you know taken the steps are taking steps necessary to do that so many haven't done that yet and time is running out if you look at the u.n. security council well you seem strong steps being pushed from western countries u.s. u.k. france but to other countries that have veto power russia and china have not allowed any strong actually come out of the u.n. security council would either of those countries do anything individually china could make a difference here china's got some leverage here but china doesn't seem to have an

interest in doing that they haven't shown that yet you so see it in the southeast asian nations which is me m.r. is a member of they could they could have some real impact here they generally have a policy of noninterference in each other's internal affairs the lately we're seeing stronger statements coming out of members such as singapore indonesia philippines malaysia thailand but they're going to have to really do more and they going to have to step up the pressure politically soon if it's going to make a difference. from kuala lumpur in malaysia thank you very much for this as mine. a 2nd look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world a court in hong kong has convicted 7 leading activists and politicians for taking part in antigovernment protests they include veteran pro-democracy politician martin lee and media tycoon jimmy lai they face up to 5 years in prison is another blow to the flagging democracy movement or. in japan authorities in osaka

that's really important they were not positive at the time of action issues they might have contact. with a positive person but then the vaccination vortex edition is green why were the 1st to know i don't know isn't there that vaccine development typically takes you it's . and he does not feel comfortable getting a vaccine that is michelle so quickly he believes many others in india also prefer to wait and watch. and the low turnouts and lack of long queues attacks in mission centers seem to be proving him. in years leading behind its acceleration targets which could be riot the country has now made the vaccine available to everyone above the age of 45 another reason could be to count all vaccine vistage in a meeting with state leaders india's prime minister marine demoed the emphasized the need to stop the release of vaccine doses. we must take the proper vaccine very

seriously. every back seeing basted it's also a waste of someone's right to vaccination we cannot destroy someone's rights. to predation the high rates of vaccines being wasted part of the problem lies in the parish ability of the vaccines each vaccine vial has tender. and once opened they must be used up within 4 hours if 10 people do not show up within that period . the demeaning doses must be started. on. max in nations centers like this one see that as a simple beast to counter based we only open the bible when we have 10 people waiting to be vaccinated some people call different so we call those who had just given get a vaccine that we would make sure we have enough. people under $45.00 and not officially eligible for inoculation opinions are divided on whether they would take

the job veneto income. people might each can't keep waiting for the vaccine we can also get covered we should all get vaccinated as soon as possible but. we are young and i'm going 5. so there's no need for over soon. once my is comes into that. idea that if again we're going in. for now the government is hoping for a big 3rd in the number of vaccinations and has put its exports on hold a stop raise in daily infections me just cause a shift in india's vaccines. and i was some of the other developments in the pandemic the world health organization has criticized europe's vaccine rollout as quote unacceptably slow but also says the surge of new infections is worrying testing is underway after an outbreak in the chinese city of really authorities plan to swab all 221-0000 residents

taiwan has launched asia's 1st travel bubble with the island of passengers must be tested before boarding flights will not have to quarantine. the european union is coming under fire for its treatment of migrants for years now thousands of asylum seekers have been living in inhumane conditions in greece 5 islands near the turkish coast are known as hotspots where refugees are housed in overcrowded accommodation most of the children cannot go to school the use says turkey should take the migrants in under a 5 year old agreement but critics say that deal as a human rights disaster. sunda influence schmitz reports from the island of lesbos . a prominent guest at the hughes most notorious migration hot spot well e.u. commissioner if you want some tour to muffle really camp in a guarded convoy earlier this week journalists were given

a rare opportunity to visit the nicer parts of the overcrowded facility scenes of women exercising in the spring shown starkly contrast these pictures from last winter when residents had to hold on to their tents. we need djoko from the democratic republic of congo she tells us she has been here for 16 months we are living like animals without documents i've had my asylum interview already but haven't heard anything since this is feet we face. more than 13000 people are stuck in these hot spots in the north of jean islands as part of a system designed to help greece cope with high numbers of irregular arrivals as part of the e.u.'s 26000 migration deal with turkey greek authorities with the e.u. support have to examine whether each person arriving here has a right to asylum those whose claims are rejected must return to turkey and as long as asylum seekers don't have an answer they can't leave the islands critics claim

this model is simply not working because it creates a situation of deep injustice because people are kept in some cases for many years in the home. and the conditions there are appalling they're really not effective and if we look at the courts of order to report on the hot spots for instance they show that they are extremely expensive and not serving the original purposes of rapid decision on cases instead of setting up appropriate infrastructure to deal with asylum cases in a swift manner 5 years on from when the deal was signed authorities are operating in emergency mode and even you commissioner your own agrees this system has to change i don't want to have i would like to have proper reception facilities but people should not stay for long and then have a better. location system we need to europeanize migration issue and to stand by each other and not leave member state or alone.

the e.u. commission has proposed a new approach to a serial him under which a sale not occasions would be processed within days at the blocks external borders but critics fear this might lead to a situation similar to what we're seeing today hot spots all over again. before we go some football news north macedonia stuns germany winning 21 in the world cup qualifier induced book midfielder elma's score that is size of goal late in the 2nd half ended germany's 18 match winning streak in world cup qualifiers was also the germans final competitive game before this summer's european championship the result spot while celebrations among the few north macedonian fans they ended up seeing with a national team outside the stadium. at

elations that's it for me in the news team don't go away though coming up next with 19 specials coming up after a short break and got alphas in berlin and so watch. the final against the coronavirus pandemic. has the rate of infection been developing what does the latest research say. information and contacts the coronavirus update nineteen's. on t w. in the. climate change. because the sudanese. puts him soon.

we're going to use today her future. dot com african american city the minute you. click. was it a mistake to send our children back to school. the number of infections us rising rapidly among kids and what do we do we prioritize teachers to get vaccinated sooner children are still at the back of the queue. but kids can also get sick with coke at 19 and seriously 2 what's more they can also develop what's known as long coated meaning they can suffer long term damage regardless of whether they have

shown symptoms after their initial infection or not at their crucial age would have element that could impact the rest of their lives. but so are we doing enough to protect our children. because there could be much more at stake for the young in this pandemic and we have so far wanted to admit. welcome to our coverage night in stash i want to cajones good to have you with us now we all know the feeling of being out of breath after going up the stairs for example that's quite normal usually but not in times of covert 19 and not when tickets are affected what does long colwich do to them a condition that keeps covered 900 patients down for weeks even months beyond the initial illness an italian study on long coded children surveyed kids and teenagers 5 months after being diagnosed with covered 19 only 42 percent of them had fully

recovered 36 percent showed one or 2 long sentence while 22 percent showed at least 3 sometimes symptoms. sleep disorders breathing difficulties muscle and joint pain plus exhaustion headaches and an over a lack of concentration basically all symptoms that ultimately stop kids from being kids full of energy and life francis simpson is a lecturer in psychology and counseling at coventry university in scarborough she also co-founded the campaign long covert kits and she joins us now good to have you with us you and your children had 900 last year when did you know it was cold at 19 given the testing was still scarce. that's really a question we became ill at the beginning of march and at the time obviously don't narrative was very simple about you know. there was either. you know

a flu like thing with a cough and a temperature or. you know if you can pull all that you would under you know in hospital being bites rated so when we got this you know i got ill with a range of symptoms that were bit like you caught my door so i have different symptoms my son hunter gatherer initially you know i didn't really 2 and 2 together . and it was only when i lost a fence and hateful at the time that it was an unknown. but when i looked at it in iran at the time of the prime time it was the most. the most searched for term in google and i thought ok in $2.00 and $2.00 together i think this must be current virus. and i talked to the doctors about it they said oh no that's not so it was very it was very difficult to get it was what she believed it was but that was it was kind of course everybody was googling back then because we knew so little about

it so when did you realize that you might actually suffer from what we now know as long it. so i have for may i just didn't seem to make a recovery so that wasn't particularly a time i think after about 6 weeks i had a brief recovery. and then i was ill again but it felt very you know described as like a roller coaster of different symptoms coming and going. and the occasional day to day and them worse they just felt like i wasn't really getting better and it felt such an unknown and if illness because they believed that my daughter was really call it for 6 weeks. and then she. didn't really get better sheets you could see need for tea. you know north korea and other symptoms i mean

just way so just so we just saw pictures of your daughter and your son just now as you were telling us. we should say that what we now know is long cold it that it manifests itself differently with children than with adults. well we've done some research with long kids and we wish them establish that actually a lot of the symptoms are very similar. but children tend to have an increased amount of gastric issues but then we have found children and do not with. you know appendicitis you know or are scientists we see quite a lot they like symptoms you know the employment shape multisystem to sort or we see similar symptoms to that but we're also seeing. new hero psychiatric symptoms you know so things like. nancy is so

there's a real gum or of a different symptoms and children kind of manifest differently there's a lot of the same symptoms that are out there are certain features that seem to be in late in the previous cohort there is of course still very little known about long cold even with adults and that is probably why you co-founded a contained known as long as we kids what are you hoping to achieve with this campaign. well it's both a campaign group under support me. so i joined forces with sammy mccraw and he was the founder and we joined forces in october because you know we were part different support groups and campaign groups for the adult can you say and realize that there was this there was just a lack of anything for children and the children out it was just being lacked out completely of all discussions so we came together really to to provide

a great for parents the really difficult place to be quite often the parents are elam's out and have children who are l. an illness to be being denied or for the parents sometimes to feel that they're being. light it or those who just allow people to come in and find other people and then from that we started they were ok we need to start getting the message out that we need people to know because we are not going to see a change in this or my children unless we actually raise awareness of it but that was not so frances you and your children would you say you have fully recovered now . difficult to say i'm much better. the last really i mean i was really ill until about 10 so from march. and then i and i took some time off work to rest. and now i have

a relapse. probably twice a month. of a few days and i have to go you know take with us but after wrath i'm quite aware of you know when right and my children know they're not better they have relapses whenever they do anything to them they were back to school. last couple of weeks to see how they're going on and they've been ill since they initially had well francis and send a thank you so much for sharing your experience with us all the best to you and your kids of course thanks for being on the program thank you. well last year no one dared to hope that we have a vaccine the says and while most of us embrace this fantastic achievement we also wonder if there could be any unwanted side effects it's time for your questions now

is our science correspondent williams. could a vaccine cause a positive p.c. our result. just a quick reminder 1st that p.c.r. stands for polymerase chain reaction and tests that employ the technology are considered the gold standard for for detecting the viral genome in swab samples now because some vaccines used information from that genome could they also trigger a positive result this question comes up all the time and the answer is no believe me if it did then you would have heard about it because millions of vaccinated people would have suddenly started testing positive for coated 19 after getting shots that would there would be no way to distinguish between them and asymptomatic carriers it would be chaos but nothing even remotely like that has

happened no if you get back a positive p.c.r. result it's almost certainly because you've been infected even though you might have coincidentally received the vaccine a day or 2 before hand don't forget that it takes your body or around 2 week to build up a significant immune response after you've received the 1st dose of a vaccine and in that time people do catch covert 19 quite a few i get e-mail from them all the time the science behind why vaccines can't cause a positive p.c.r. result is fairly complicated but basically boils. now on to the fact that none of the currently approved vaccines used a full version of the real virus to kickstart an immune response and.

they're based on short specific stretches from the source code view to gene that that actually degrade pretty quickly and so they're not detected by p.c.r. only replicating buyable viruses so if you test positive it's time to talk to a medical professional the vaccine is not to blame. and eric williams but he back to answer more of your questions again tomorrow before we go and this is not an april fool's joke if you're anywhere with a mask requirement you will know the problem every time you want to eat or take a sip of your drink you have to remove it potentially putting yourself and others and risk well is a possible solution the nose only mouse it allows you to take a bite while maintaining at least some level of protection and 0 dignity it's been
