also overwhelming them. for more on this i'm joined by dr in a rush trey han the chairman and managing director of the donta a chain of medical institutes based in going down the trail and in your one of india's most respected doctors anything training indian presidents for the last 30 years tell us how bad is the covert 19 situation in india right now. we've to be surprised he estimates that before solely because crystal reverently and sex lies of them both that it is to donors that beak of the last beef was busted so the british read her script it has to give us all 'd a lute's of race then the system is over with all this work gotten at least in such numbers all that we have we had enough to deal with the 2nd movie was like the

1st 3 because the numbers are small within the north and so it's unlike what happened in the united states in the 2nd. react to be something to do with. what is needed then now is to turn the situation around. so there are several factors which i give you about a loop on the 1st if we will not we did not have enough p.b.s. we didn't have enough must we didn't have enough but if the leaders didn't have enough hospital beds and the fame and they see a bit that all was done not well in the 2nd lives what we've the problem we have is the medically people who actually learned over the freaking health care system we should definitely has been stretched beyond its could be capacity even null as you see in the patients who we were like you're going to be a working day and i could do that but something that i knew were truthful so we're

trying to create them a full you're going to be breathing or being said does and in hospitals and this isn't so that increases that amount of certain things much like like the medicines that we're using look around as if he is one of the medicines to trying to go to be book and the other oxygen oxygen the requirement for by the medical profession you know off didn't has become formed i think that all previous times so that by we have the huge supply demand mismatch right now and the government as we all of us doctors of the body is trying to pull with that by doing the following list of all the capacities increase in the mean problem also is even the transportation of oxygen liquid oxygen by bankers is all sold one being because of the fact that other would be did not in other times we did not need another names or bank goes to

run for the riches of god of the divine being must prove them gone up so you will then that's the sort of i'll do all of the levy terrible being that and also the fact that the government has started importing tankers from bit of a. you can find it only this big indian believe in 76 lifters have been sent all of the listen to be started transporting the cryo tanks so no we are hoping that you are these one. maybe but we can start doing were actually started going down and the options of a city where the steel industry is also led should be given all the gov the security that we have to dothan arrest found thank you we have to leave it there but thank you very much you know time thank you. time is

running out in the search for a military submarine that went missing on wednesday with $53.00 people on board indonesia's navy and ships from countries including the u.s. and australia are searching for the vessel after it lost contact near the coast of bali authorities say the submarines oxygen supply will last only until saturday local time leading to fees it could be too late to save lives. it's a race against time and against the ocean's depth to k i mangle of 402 you may have sunk too deep to be retrieved on board a 53 crew members and very limited oxygen reserve. their families are desperate for them to be found and this woman's husband is one of the crew members he called her right before the submarine set out. you know. we were on a video call when he said honey i'm going to sail i said ok take care come home soon pray for me so i can go home soon he said. yeah yeah.

yeah. the search is focusing on this area about 100 kilometers north of bali the submarine was conducting a missile firing exercise here when contact broke off officials say a power outage may have occurred causing a loss of control. indonesia has deployed several navy ships in a patrol plane malaysia singapore and australia have joined the operation and other countries offering help and oil spill and a submerged magnetic object in the area of the submarines last dive has rescuers hoping they're on the right track but if the submarine has sunk to date it may be impossible for the rescuers to operate and time is running out. the submarines oxygen reserve capacity in a power outage is 72 hours or about. 3 days starting from when it lost contact on

wednesday around 3 am it could last until saturday at 3 am let's hope we can find them before then. it was you know. officials say the german made submarine was in good condition before it set out to sea but after 40 years of service in indonesia it may have fallen prey to the same waters it's been defending. let's take a look at some other stories making headlines around the world hundreds of people have been mourning dante wright black man killed by police during a traffic stop named minneapolis his funeral came 2 days after the verdict in the george floyd case in the same city the officer who shot bryant apparently by mistake has been charged with manslaughter. there's been violent scuffles between israelis and palestinians outside jerusalem's old city after protesters were barred from areas where muslims gather for ramadan israeli police put up barricades and

you stun grenades to disperse crowds the far right jewish law harvard group chanted anti arab slogans and was prevented from marching to the area. nelson and commercial rocket company space x. have watched a new take on a flight to the international space station the 4 astronauts are the 1st crew ever propelled toward it all but by a rocket booster recycled from the previous space flight it's the 3rd time astronauts have flown on a private rocket to space. the 1st date. chad's president idriss deby is being laid to rest in the capital. after his sudden death on tuesday french president emanuel my call was welcome to the welcome to the ceremony. and success of debbie was an ally of western states in the fight against the region's jihadist insurgency he says to be died in a rebel offensive that happened just hours after it was announced he want to 6

presidential term in office. well for more i'm joined by reed brody as counsel and spokes person for human rights watch how significant is this day for chat ins as they bury their leader of more than 3 decades. well as you say most have never known any president other than eaters steady. in that sense that it's you. i think people are upset many people that this the handing of power in dynastic unconstitutional sense has gone to his son where is the constitution should have provided power going to the head of the national assembly and the future right now for charity and says very uncertain. french president elect cole is attending the funeral and said he wanted that anybody friends had integrity and stability how much influence does front still have in its full colony

he well you know 1st for 30 years france and the united states gave. virtually unconditional backing to this authoritarian corrupt and often brutal ruler in the name of regional stability the same way that u.s. and france backed his far more brutal predecessor houston harbor it harbury was a bulk against that could die off a moon walk it off in the end there debbie is considered a bold work against islamic terrorism but ultimately as we saw today as we saw with the death of beatrice did the it's the facts on the ground that are going to decide the stability of chad i mean it's obviously france is going to continue to support what is now a dynastic regime but we're going to have to see what happens on the ground well

that's brings me to my next question what is next on the ground what is next for chatham debby's son was named president as you mentioned he's a full stop general in the army is it war of the say to come. well you know there's there's so there's a lot of fear and even panic in chad today i mean the rebels who allegedly killed debbie although it's not at all clear that that's what happened could be worse their leadership is from the small ground clan or just an hop or a and if they should take power that could be reprisals against somehow woods and victims and activists equally worrisome is the possibility that the regime. will take advantage of chaos in as they have done in the past as they did 12 years ago just settle scores with political opponents disappearing people from 2000 a who are still disappeared today so it's a very tense and maurice and situation yes and

a raid broady council and human rights watch thanks very much to thailand. there watching they have any news still to come munich will remain a host city for this thomas football heroes 20 months but how will the city justify having fans in the stands during a pandemic. not coming shortly but 1st rescue is searching for 3 migrant ships missing in the mediterranean have found 10 bodies in the say the search posse aboard the vikings found the bodies alongside a dinghy that had gone interests around the boat was one of the 3 that in addition to distress signal the ocean viking belongs to a french migrant rescue group that says it was conducting the search for the boats in international waters northeast of the libyan city of tripoli. well migration and displacement is of course a global problem turkey is currently hosting more than 4000000 refugees from the

middle east numbers surge during syria's civil war which began 10 years ago but today most migrants trying to reach europe from turkey and not syrians but afghans their journeys are often dangerous and often deadly. reports from the eastern turkish city of van where many of those journeys have ended in tragedy. symmetry of the nameless this is how the locals call this place and for a mina sufi saga and her son parviz it is always difficult to come here. painful memories a reawakened. mother her tears you get. you the people who are buried here have mothers brothers and sisters they all have someone who loved them but now their families don't even know that they are here it breaks my heart that there is no one who comes and prays for them mobile her tears

you know. but it yeah that is why i'm nina and power this pray here on behalf of everyone else alone. they fled from of coniston by iran to turkey illegally on foot over the mountains. it's a long dangerous journey many freeze to death or die in accidents and many who don't make it end up here. in the eastern turkish city of van in an unadorned grave with no name. on them. i myself there is a man here who was found dead in the mountains and once they brought women's bodies their fingers and toes were frozen off from the cold. that. these name as the grave seem like memorials a warning of the fate that looms on this dangerous journey and yet only a few are discouraged by the risk the number of people trying to reach europe why

this route has sharply risen in recent years the route leads through the mountains straddling turkey's border with iran up to 4000 meters high most of those trying to reach europe from afghanistan pakistan bangladesh take this way ticky is now building walls everywhere in the region they are hundreds of kilometers long the border with syria has already been closed off the wall to iran is still under construction. human rights lawyer mahmoud could chance has a wall won't stop the refugees it only makes the journey more dangerous. he has in this area been ignoring people smuggling for too long it's become kind of a business sector so many get involved in this because a lot of money can be made in a short time at a relatively low risk. i mean and power of

a sufi side is still clearly remember their own flight from afghanistan the smugglers took everything from them they say they have been living here in van for 3 years now. the family found refuge in turkey but like so many others they want to continue to woods' europe back to afghanistan they say that's out of the question. then that you will not have lost everything in afghanistan it's a war zone our house was destroyed how can we go back there when there's no safety for a children or what if we have to go back they will kill my son that's not an option . so they are holding out in eastern turkey stranded in their new existence and they think of those who lost their lives and are buried here at the symmetry of the nameless. and now to some breaking

news just coming in jailed russian opposition leader an accent of only says he's ending his hunger strike the kremlin critic began the strike more than 3 weeks ago to demand proper medical care for the loss of sensation in his legs and arms he was imprisoned after returning from germany larry treatment after being poisoned in russia with a red nerve agent his doctors urged him this week to stop the hunger strike saying his life was at risk. americal is facing questions today over one of germany's largest corporate scandals the chancellor testified before a parliamentary committee that's investigating the collapse of the payment processing company wild card lawmakers want to know why merkel continued to promote the german company abroad despite multiple allegations of wrongdoing their appearance months the climax of a public inquiry into an affair that has tainted germany's reputation for following the rules it's exposed ties between politics and business and prompted several resignations and criminal investigations. more on the story joint.

chief political editor michael is still giving testimony but tell us what he's been telling the investigative committee so far this morning. was he basically says and this is the most contentious issue here why she raised why it caught on her visit to china at the very highest level and she said that simply why a card fit into germany's overall policy in seeking market access particularly on the financial sector and that that had very little to do with the fact that she had met up with a lobbyist for wire card none other then the former defense minister here and in the. back she also stressed that she is no longer in contact with him so clearly trying to put some distance between her and him and she said that she still had full confidence in one who her key advisers. not simply color who is her economics advisor and whose wife was also linked to why it caught in directly so

that still leaves some question marks the german chancellor very much on the defensive here well before machall rejected criticism of her lobbying company while the deputy elections also refused to take any blame out how does that make them look. well it makes. the finance minister who was testifying yesterday look at the very least uninformed although many find that very hard to believe because he was also the one who then started to change the watchdog to basically restructure it and to have somebody else at the top of the these financial watchdog he says he fixed the problem as soon as he was aware of it but there's still some question marks over who knew what when and who should have acted to prevent this from happening with the counter argument being that there was so much criminal energy in why

a card suddenly no longer being able to produce evidence for some 1900000000 euros that that is always something that policymakers cannot foresee that it happens so here we are it's certainly very damaging either way whatever the truth is for the reputation of this government and in the end machall herself well that brings me to my next question very damaging machall is in the last months of her chancellery how will this scandal affect her personal legacy what it could leave her somewhat tarnished being of course how to the very least by the very successful lobbying efforts by wire cards which was certainly deeply rooted within the upper echelons of bavarian politics at the very least and one could say but at the same time it is only a few more months to go germany is in the midst of a pandemic so yes it will damage her reputation but not grasp on power until those

elections in september romney had to leave it there thank you michelle a. political editor. european football's governing body you way says says munich will remain one of the host cities for the euros following amazing today and it had been at risk of losing its hosting rights to a way for a client that spectators it be allowed to attend now local authorities and the german football federation have a grade on a plan to allow some sense inside the city's rayna despite the coronavirus pandemic and dublin have to opt out as host city south of failing to provide the same guarantee. and i'm joined. on this story jonathan high huge decision for the city of munich but how will they be able to justify letting people into the stadium during what is kind of us cases

more i think that's probably the story in a nutshell. it is important for. such a prestigious tournament especially in view of the fact germany will have the entire thing in 3 years time your age 2024 there are many ways it would be a dress rehearsal and i think that's why the local authorities and the german football federation have been so keen to have this happen and they've been working on 3 scenarios for fans inside stadiums ranging from anywhere between 0 and 27000 fans in the end what they've agreed on is $14500.00 which is about 20 percent of the capacity of the arena so that's obviously enough to sway your way for but the other side of it is you know the current virus cases in germany are rising whereabouts and. potentially because of that. the writer had been erring on the side of caution saying how can we plan for something like this when we don't know what's going to happen in june and july when this takes place and of course you

know a lot of people look at all the restrictions in place at the moment and think is this another example of football getting preferential treatment. i tell much pressure do you think let us put on munich's how might this happen oh you a foot were adamant spectators should be allowed inside the stadium to the storm and they wanted 25 percent capacity and guarantees in the host city 9 of the trials had already done that in dublin as we had can provide those guarantees which is why they've dropped out as i said munich slightly under that but props talk that because of the german clubs dropped out of the super league when they refused to take part perhaps germany kind of won some special favors because of that why is it important for you a for well of course there's the prestigious thing as i mentioned this is the 2nd most watched football tournament in the world so of course they want found inside the stadium and then there's money ticket refunds are going to be very difficult to organize and thanks very much for coming in you know.

you're watching daytime news live from berlin up next in good shape with a look at this the differences in health between men and women states into that level headlines at the top of the hour don't go away.

the difference in genetic material all it takes men and women differently. and gender medicine takes the stand in seriously as a man or woman wants to know when it comes to health for better medical treatment prevention. good she's.

next. d.w. . we have important numerous ways to write a. smoking news healthy. signs are good for the 'd beamers global warming doesn't exist. on the ghost. will not yet. confirmed to. me how great it. industry is controlling your thoughts. here are attention seeking to see if the rail science it's not easy to spot i'm saying one thing and history is saying another. the great books of the

20th century. present day hoaxes this is phil and who's behind. this kind of the navia is on except it will not be the last manufacturing ignorance foxtrot's made through on g.w. . hello and welcome to new fresh edition from in good shape here we are again are you male or female or do you define yourself differently i'm asking because we want gender equality you're asking why is this question so important if you're sick or need to see a doctor that distinction might be the game changer men have

a higher risk for developing heart disease but women are more likely to die from it with regard to mental health problems you might be unlucky if you're a man according to statistics more women get depressed this could be because doctors are less likely to think about depression in men and therefore don't treat them properly as a man or woman what you have to know when it comes to health and what do we doctors have to do to ensure that there's equality in medical treatment that is what our show today is all about let's take a current example the novel coronavirus research suggests that men fall ill more frequently and more severely. today i'm with your play he's a biochemist turned writer he has written a lot of science books and he's a journalist thanks for having me today when we take a look at the cool grown up and make it seems that the men are the weakest sex in this case this is really true when you look at the. corona virus outbreak actually

there's some data now from the city of hamburg and romney and they clearly show that. among the people who die from the virus the men are in the majority it's about 57 percent of the people actually men it's because of their lifestyle they have more heart disease they have more problems with their lungs because. among them and that makes them weak and prone to get the virus and a severe. infection leading to i will talk to your place in more detail in just a moment one thing is clear there are many biological differences between the sexes then it's also clear that diseases take different courses and have to be treated differently but a lot is also due to our behavior women wash their hands more often and they eat more healthily men on the other hand think that the body simply has to function and

what about as doctors we treat headaches. but do doctors care about if the patient is a man or a woman this question could make a difference between life or death. just never imagined she'd wind up in hospital yet she recently woke up at night with back pain later the next morning she was diagnosed with mild cardio infarction she had had a heart attack it's far from given that you were survived says cardiologist. heart attacks are still regarded as something that men get even though it's the number one killer of women yet women symptoms are often misdiagnosed. we've even seen women and their doctors who thought it was influenza. fortunately irises doctor who is a woman herself thought it might be something to do with her heart duffed that's

normally a routine consideration with men making a diagnosis we have to make sure it's always taken into consideration with women as well. it's not only our hearts that beat to a different rhythm there are many other differences between male and female that's due to our genetics. women have 2 x. chromosomes in each of the body cells while men have one x. and one y. chromosome and there's the chromosomes control a person's hormone levels which differ between male and female and as well as influencing our sexual organs hormones also have an effect on our entire organism. the proportion of fat in a woman's body is fundamentally higher than that of a man it actually confers no benefit at all on men as male fat isn't deposited around the hips. instead it collects around the liver and the abdomen.

that's why men are twice as likely to develop type 2 diabetes as women are. on the other hand women have broader hips they're more likely to be knock kneed and their knees have less cartilage this can make them wear out faster. it's why 2 thirds of all knee replacement surgery is carried out on women. women's immune systems are also more likely to over respond to pathogens that's why they're more prone to allergies asthma and arthritis and when prescribing medication for these and other illnesses a doctor has to take these differences into account after all medicines that are highly effective for men might be of no use to women others can have a stronger effect on women then on men that applies especially to beta blockers the

consequences can be dangerous incorrect prescriptions can have negative side effects and even a. choir detoxification. did speedy come in people rarely think that side effects are overdoses could be the cause of their symptoms. and that's why women aren't getting the right advice on why side effects might be ignored to begin with. but apart from medication invasive treatments such as heart catheter exams pose higher risks for women including even start lost. their blood vessels are more sensitive so there's a higher risk we might injure them that's why we insert softer tubes that are very gentle to vessel walls. in heart catheterization a cardiologist inserts a long very thin tube through an artery or vein to the heart the doctor uses it to

locate the constriction which triggered the infarction. here a plastic tube or stent is being inserted to widen the constriction. because women tend to have more problems after receiving a stent landmass a uses digital imagery which allows very precise measurements that shows him how big a stent needs to be. the thing is this is the best i think that's just coming into focus now that women's treatment has to be done just as well as man's. and that's why in the past it was certainly the case that the focus was more on the men either starlost was lucky she got swift treatment she wants to stop smoking and lose weight she know understands that women also have to keep an eye on their heart condition. the quality of the sexes is

a major issue in politics or working in social life all over the world at the same time the differences between men and women have been examined down to the tiniest different. for example a study with 5000 persons found that men funnier than women this is maybe because humor is an important criterion for women when choosing a partner this was found in a study young marriage chance maybe this is why men often display their humor more strongly but everything has its limits for example when a man gets a cold then all fun comes to full stop. it's a phenomenon half the population is affected and they're all man women might get a slight cold in the winter time but man end up suffering full blown influenza. but why are men by their nature not as robust as women immunologists have

discovered that men and women have different reactions to infections. there's evidence that it could be true women's and men's immune systems seem to function very differently. and does has to do with hormones women have lots of east region that stimulates immune cells to react quickly that's why women's bodies can fight off an infection faster and more aggressively than men's bodies which contain high levels of testosterone. as men have way more testosterone in their blood than women do we know from various studies that testosterone has an effect on the immune system several studies have shown that testosterone is the reason why men get the flu more often than women. you might come to the conclusion that man with extremely high levels of testosterone would get sick more often but the opposite seems to be true. high testosterone levels metabolize some of that

testosterone into extradite a female hormone and that in turn has a positive influence on their immune system. this means that men with high to stand strong levels are well protected against infections and are less often sick than men with low testosterone levels. men also have a genetic disadvantage. even the difference in chromosomes influences their immune systems. of a lot of antioxidant and immunological processes are coded on the x. chromosome which means that when you men like this are white chromosome. that's another reason why we're much more susceptible to infections. so hormones and genes determine that men fall ill faster but do they get sicker than women do.

actually their scientific evidence to suggest that the opposite is true and women get hit harder than men do. many studies about the differences in pain between men and women the conclusion was that women experience pain more intensely and. what's more the intense immune response that women experience puts their bodies under a lot of stress and that can lead in the short term to even stronger symptoms. but men are more focused on their pain than women are so they suffer more when men get sick they concentrate on every symptom like a scratchy throat. there's also another reason why men get more infections than women they wash their hands less frequently than women do and washing your hands is the best way to kill viruses whether you're a man or a woman. i'm still talking could

be. just more squeamish than women. who have a tendency. to lead a life that's not very healthy. you find among. there's more folks who have a leg of exercise and the eat more unhealthy food and the repercussion is that. have more medical problems and that they might even die earlier than women in almost every country in the world men die earlier than women here in germany approximately 5 years earlier in russia even 10 years why is that so russian men love to drink vodka and even if they appear to be very strong and healthy some of them drop dead because they wrecked their liver

and that is a problem in russia actually in all societies men have a tendency to to be smokers to exercise less and also they have more accidents and that's an explanation of why the life expectancy of men is lower and this is true in all societies to get to the bottom of this phenomena and you went to the island of sardinia in the mediterranean sea why sitting here there's one village in the mountains that is very peculiar because. men lived to be about 100 years for the life expectancy amongst men extremely high i can say it's one of the highest in the world and the other thing is men and women have more or less the same very high life expectancy

in so then you know there was a environment with a lot of exercise because men many of these men would look after the sheep with the weather young so they would be in the field for many many months per year every year they would hardly drink wine they would eat a lot of vegetables and so that was a combination of very healthy food and no smoking by the way and this created a situation where men could really live to become a 100 years old so behavior and lifestyle have a stronger influence and biology the genes were always overrated there's no real biological explanation it really boils down to the way of life what can every man in regard lives where he lives in the world do to lead a longer and healthier life it is very interesting to see what the men into dina did when they were young so they wouldn't smoke so my advice is quit smoking eat

healthy foods mostly plants and you should have a lot of exercise and if you follow these things. you do a lot to to have the full potential of your own personal life expectancy in one of the cover stories of the most famous magazine here in germany you claimed that men who live in the family and take care of the family live a longer and healthier life but isn't this just boring. at least then you could say it's boring for a longer time more boring days but i think also on the same time you have more days full of happiness because if men live in and healthy and good relationships they have less accidents they take less drugs they have better foods they're not that stupid and so i think the really the.
