live from berlin coming up next the devastating effect of the coronavirus on brazil's poor and the vaccination drive in france in the week in reports on the spicer thanks george. training kids. that you love. with extravagant outfits and glitter glitter glitter. the fighting against prejudice i don't call cable like i did nothing else just dancing and for

recognition. we are little stars on the great stage. struck me 17 to. cut. this week on the world stories in russia vaccine tourism becomes a business model what is the price of freedom in sweden during a pandemic but we begin in brazil where just as it has everywhere else the coronavirus pandemic is hitting the poor especially hard many have lost their jobs that are struggling to feed their families. gomez starts her day early

she gets up at around 4 am worried about having enough food for her 4 children to have breakfast. i wake up with the feeling of being in agony i jump out of bed in the 1st thing i do is thank god i'm alive i look at my children and think to myself today i'll bring home some food for them i leave the house early to fetch bread there are days when i consummated should bring them anything but they run out of a night. gomez lives in a for valor of around a 100000 people in sao paolo here and across brazil unemployment hit a record high last year this community association helps people living in marginalized areas to find work. we had an 84 percent increase in demand for employment after the government's imagine c. 8 ended the number of people seeking out help tripled because so many people didn't have any support anymore and it. up. in december government

ethical. no match. for adults live in the home of sylvia hayes us she's a cook and the only one still to have a job but it's just one day a week she used to cook in other people's homes but they let her go for fear of infection. that this pandemic is difficult it's going to leave all of us starving and that's apart from all the damage it does to your health look at this q we're all in the same boat the. problem of the melba with a shortage of vaccines and hospitals overwhelmed it's hard to see a way forward for people in the lowest social groups who are trapped by both poverty and disease. despite a 3rd lockdown france has one of the highest rates of covert infections in europe the government is trying to contain the spread of the virus with a massive vaccination campaign.

places like these are the new beacon of hope for the french the star disaster just north of paris is one of more than 100 new huge vaccinations and just across the country all of us can handle a combined effect this is a mega operation we are now able to administer mass vaccinations in this center we will inoculate about $10000.00 people per week them neatly organized the chinese are part of a national effort to end this crisis. people here are relief they're finally getting help the stadium is located in france's most destitute departments and sunny which has also been hit hardest by the epidemic with about 800 new infections per 100000 inhabitants each week. that as well and i really hope to finally see the light at the end of the tunnel it's what we need things have been very

worrying for a year now and although we try to make an effort and stay reasonable it's getting very difficult to live without social contacts but since i do put the department of sense and me is very badly affected by the epidemic the numbers keep skyrocketing it's like time they do this if it's not already too late a faster vaccination campaign is key to the country's latest strategy to fight cope with 19 the government just decreed a 3rd nation might lock down but it's only a 4 week lockdown light and this time people are even told to spend more time outside this very ologist is not sure that will be enough to bring the epidemic under control. by good people longer booklet after all where x. today we will need to vaccinate 10 percent of the french population with 2 jabs for the spread of the virus to start slowing down. now by the mall

forward to being able to travel again in future israel has said it will open up to people who've been vaccinated. the 2 departed from frankfurt today go. they're among the 1st 18 tourists to pull the 4 day trip to moscow. their return at the beginning of may for a 2nd job. then dutch are coming to you can't count on getting a vaccination in the near future in germany to be honest i think we're being sensible the more people are vaccinated the sooner we recharge immunity that. the media are out in force to meet the would be vaccine knees russia's government is happy to get one sputnik v. to be a top export 60 countries have certified it for use the european union is more hesitant doubts have been raised about its efficacy so the kremlin could see vaccine tourism

as good publicity. tour operator world visitor welcomes the business or yeah. sure operator we at least have work for some of our stuff and generate some revenue as we otherwise wouldn't have and for russia it's peor and solves a couple of german problems as well. sputnik the is available to all russian citizens free of charge but only 30 percent of them are interested a quick straw poll shows many welcome the fact that germans are coming to moscow for their shots. we had almost a depression if they got problems of vaccines in germany they should come here i don't think it's bad. that. they should come to russia we're the best. with them let them have their vaccinations our vaccine is very good. group even though sputnik field isn't even certified yet the next few weeks will see quite a few more vaccine vacationers. heading to moscow visitors says bookings are

surging. sweden has taken a unique approach to the corona virus pandemic that governments lockdown polly. he was much lighter than in neighboring countries though the death toll is quite high the approach still has its supporters. sweden seen as the land of sweet liberty for those chafing against coronavirus closures curfews and mandatory masks while most of europe has been in various stages of lockdown over the last year swedes have been skiing shopping dining and drinking restrictions in swedish restaurants mean giving customers space and closing at 8 pm i think we have taken away a round hole for the tables so we have one meters per bank gun jimmy head waiter at

the concern and restaurant in stockholm says sweden's done it right what tourists from belgium from crawls from him learn from czech republic they come we're taking you we were a case you. just feel the freedom the architect of this model state epidemiologist understand now we did basically the same as many other countries we did it sounds like a different way what we're all trying to do i think sweden has tried maybe a bit more than not a system to pinpoint what exactly we do we need to close the technology different way has seen sweden record a far higher death toll than its closest neighbors finland and norway a comparison he rejects they are they all flyers sweden. compare very much more true belgium or stray even germany and sweden is among the $5.00 to $10.00 countries with least excess mortality is europe but sweden's care homes in particular were hit hard last year and still now hospitals warn intensive care

units are nearly overwhelmed take masks for example understand mel doesn't believe they're very effective so on public transportation writers are urged but not required to mask up during rush hours few appear to do so some feel that's a failure of the government's covert 1000 communications strategy at least journalism professor christian christianson says the lax approach to mask wearing exposes inequalities in swedish society endangering especially minorities you're seeing people who are probably in lower paying jobs service industry jobs must take public transportation their trains in the morning day in day out with hundreds of people in a small container i think it's reasonable to ask like you know might that not be a possible public health problem if they make it more tight that everyone should make you should wear a mask that would be very important and maybe we could have spare some life so

a new emergency law gives the government temporary power to impose a lockdown but it hasn't been used well polls show some swedes have lost faith in their country's approach to stuff lloyd blood isn't one of them he still trusts in ender's techno here a person like this different kind of way to handle a crisis in the world we did it in a way where people still could have a lot of their freedom and for me freedom is really important blood support isn't likely to fade quickly last year he immortalized the epidemiologist on his epidermis.
