that only up to 50 people are allowed to be present at the funeral one very striking moment will be when the queen herself sits alone jaring the service for social distancing measures clearly that will be very poignant moment for those watching and for the nation. shallots charles until when so thank you. now remember will be bringing you live coverage of prince philip's funeral right here on d w shortly after the news so stay tuned now the world has reached another grim milestone in the history of the cone of ausmin demick according to figures from johns hopkins university over 19 that passed that 3000000 mark the west his country is the united states with more than 566000 that in brazil more than 368000 people have lost their lives to the pandemic in mexico at least

211000 they are followed by india the united kingdom if you look at the rupee and region as a whole if it accounts for the highest total number of that just over $1000000.00. india is one of the hottest it's countries and it's facing an alarming surge in infections day after day for more than a week it's reported a new record daily rise in cases this is the region is particularly dire in the capital of delhi which has been placed on a weekend lockdown in a bid to contain the spread but also in other cities like mumbai infection numbers are exploding. once again he and his family are packing their belongings during the lockdown last year the couple and their 2 children had to leave mumbai now a year later they again say they have no choice. there are so many problems i cannot work so we cannot afford food we live on just one or 2 euros
