and of the people on friday a fire tore through an intensive care unit and goodreads state crematoriums are running out of wood for the dead for those who have lost a loved one to covert 19 there is no dignified way to say goodbye many blame the government. i really would have been a big failure mode you should be of the nation for somebody to be who cheated you don't feel and wondered if you really felt that it was going to i. wonder if i didn't know you don't die who are you going to lead everything. from. an international relief effort is underway to help india fight its devastating 2nd wave. and for more on this i'm not joined by w.'s new mission gys while the mission just horrible awful things that we're seeing that tell us how the

vaccination campaign is going how how can that help. to the backs of the units and to. the well as people between 18.5 what you are trying to mangle what jap today but this would be stretching the truth in a fashion because many states what you do actually give jazz that this is what we're talking mathematician many others to use it in some of the hardest hit areas like. the quest. species and just because it just didn't know what to do with that many people who sign up for quite the backs of them to see that they cannot get them out even though they're little good they just do not have doors and some private ones but they have to charge a fee and manufacturers are selling it to them what a higher price. now india is of course

a major vaccine produces so how can it be that it struggling to provide its own citizens with that scene's when i met her. in you have a house or ordering these vaccines one time let me just what are those out january 1 needs your back to set in india which the use of the manufacture of the vaccine said that they were not given enough funds that they were falling behind also in the us was blocking drama due to that was crucial to the supply and not what does happen please that has changed us a lot of ways as well as ease with this we have. a bastard interact with his expansion of the trade you must also know that the government insists that it does have are not those as there are concerns of the need to focus not advantaged. and yet those getting the vaccine right now are still the lucky few how's it looking

for everyone else why you are in delhi. well right now i'm at the only place in this very back seat should have gotten the word out how to find which hospital in the marines had allowed this is manufactured i have to stand. by and watch them this bad higher price don't insist on going through. but these not just not available only also can be right now all getting access to the fact remains to be as it concerns about inequality many women abstraction at this. correspondent nations as well thanks so much. let's take a look now at some other stories making headlines around the world. for a monday australia will ban anyone who has recently been in india from entering the country including its own citizens and residents rule breakers face fines or even jail time the government says the move is necessary because of the skyrocketing

number of infections in india. at least 24 people have been killed in a car bombing in afghanistan's logar province more than 100 of those a wounded the attack comes as the u.s. and nato allies begin formally withdrawing troops from the country after a 20 year war with the taliban. in paris clashes have broken out between police and protesters demanding stronger labor protections thousands of demonstrators are in the streets to mark international labor day although many rallies have been scaled back to the pandemic. and all star teams in germany have deployed thousands of police officers across the country in preparation for possible violence may 1st demonstrations so far gatherings have been peaceful with people marching for and against issues spanning the political spectrum in berlin 5000 people are on the streets where rallies have turned violent

in the past particularly after nightfall. and delhi is at one of the rallies in. judea tell us how are things looking way you are . it is looking peaceful right now the demonstration has started just a few minutes ago it took some time for it to start moving because police had asked participants to respect social distancing and it is quite a big demonstrations there thousands of people more than one had been registered for the demonstration and so the square where the demonstration started was filled with people and there. now slowly marching you can see the head of the demonstration behind me ok now we can hear we can see and hear there's obviously a lot of people there all therapies have coded related restrictions in place for today are people respecting them by and large i. think you can also see that

behind me most people are wearing masks social distancing is sometimes a little hard to perform there are a lot of people here and both the organizers and the police have asked people to observe social distancing and they have mostly stuck to it but sometimes it's been tricky polices have to wait for the demonstration to be ready with people maintaining this and seeing for it to start moving u.k. so it's loud but it is peaceful 'd what are the police expecting for the rest of the night jr. the police wasn't particularly worried about this particular demonstration this year because there were many protests across the city today also by coronavirus deniers and the police was more worried that some unexpected demonstrations would happen today that they were really not prepared for there are over 5000 police men around the city and many are here at this demonstration one

issue may be that at 10 pm the curfew comes in place here in berlin demonstrations and inspected to ends by 10 pm and when and when people were if people were not to go home after 10 pm then the police have said they will have to make sure that they do hopefully that will not create issues later. thanks so much. and it's to kenya now way reporter has been injured after police fired tear gas canisters at a crowd of demonstrators in a moment that was captured on camera camera our east africa correspondent was covering a protest over coronavirus. sions job losses and police brutality with her camera man when she was hit twice mariel was interviewing a demonstrator at the time director general of the local journalist organization for the region and amnesty international have condemned the incident and amnesty is

calling on kenyan authorities to investigate. and we spoke to mario earlier and she described for us the moment that she was hit by the canister. well i come our colleague john to and i we were together. a little square in front of the national archives here in nairobi which is in the central business district it's a popular gathering people whether sitting you know just enjoying the freedom day and also also watching as activists by gathering 40 activists more or less. came there to protest very peacefully also always reminding themselves to abide to the rules and you know maintain social distance they were demanding. improvements or support by the government especially for low income populations in there will be especially affected by the call that 19 measures and the pandemic and the lockdown especially so we were there we filmed that and we saw we heard

a shot and we thought ok what's going on we saw the tear gas and then we saw also the police and so we also felt of course that we you know inhaled it so you know it affected our eyes and our noses but then. we dispersed and then later on when i thought it's a bit calm you know we just tried to get out of the way. we interviewed a lady who was also a protester and it was just us interviewing her and nobody else and then of course always people gather when you do interviews with a camera so then some people came up and we continued the interview but then we heard another shot and there was police right behind the lady and they were pointing at us and we just wanted to go you know get out of the way and we tried that but then i the next thing that i heard or felt was you know another shot and then i just felt like this burning pain in my thigh and you know i saw that this kind of stress of this to guys that you know launched from a real weapon so it's not just you know they don't throw it it's really

a weapon so it's really strong and the impact was really strong so yeah that's what i that's what i experience today. now for most of us posses have been out of the question for a very long time but in the city of liverpool that change this week off to more than a year of club closures 3000 people are allowed to pack a warehouse for a rave the pilot event was designed to study whether current virus restrictions can be eased without triggering new outbreaks of 19. it was a big day as for britain's music scene. that all of us are excited we're all on the verge it is really doing ok we're going to see a little if it will it took so we're just ready for. a little bit overwhelming because of that we haven't been around this many people in so long and it's just it's weird to get back in the way excited a bit nervous bomb excited. the

revelers talk to test negative for coronavirus twice ahead of the event but once inside take a party without restrictions. it's been so long that this happens every day did it feel like we get this again to be like this yeah i've been i described to you that retreat back there are so many people. without must see with our souls it is so so so long so it feels amazing. scientists are using this trial to test the safety of large gatherings on the lies and data on the movement of the crowds and air quality inside the venue britain has vaccination more of its population than any other country in europe and the hope is that os with the help of experiments like this the hard his apparent sector will soon be back in the groove again. you're watching

news life from berlin coming up next our technology magazine shift i am and you confuse mackinnon on behalf of the whole news team here in thailand thanks for watching. important news. smoking is healthy post designs are good for the beings global warming doesn't exist. you don't believe those well not yet completely redid my mind. the industry is controlling your thoughts eric

tends to lean. to rail. it's not easy to spot. the great books of the 20th century. present day hoaxes. and who's behind the. manufacturing ignorance starts may 3rd on d w. virtual reality could revolutionize the sex industry what's already possible what is being developed and how might these changes affect us digital technology and sex i want topic on ships today. let's be honest despite my personal and foozie as i'm for technology in general i have not taken. very seriously for me it is a nice market for a very special clientele in japan however the concept has really taken off even

special stores here where you can have completely new experiences with losses is there perhaps more to the idea after all i took a look at one of these stores in tokyo. in tokyo district as the heart of manga on the main computer games alex runnings and the pornography the company soft on demand alone operate 70 special b r 6 stores in japan it's one of the largest producers of pornography films in asia . here you can see employees faces to keep things discreet i asked to book a one hour of the hour package it costs almost 1000 yen about 8 year old all garage to open these cities have venues like this. can be rented for up to 3 hours there are 3 different options reclining chair reclining mat. i chose reclining match.

my booth was on the 2nd floor i'm one meter 93 tall and felt pretty claustrophobic on the way out. in the booth i found the aa glasses handkerchiefs and telephone slippers and countless options it was a little bit confusing to be honest. the lot of people you don't know that either because 50 percent of people come here so they have a special service for that i will call for help. the stop help me set up and stop of ya feel the films i shot from a subjective camera angle so depending on the where the u.s. seated are lying down you will be watching a different film with a corresponding setting. you can see your own virtual body so this video here wouldn't have made much sense if i had been sitting upright. the sex industry would not be going to those technological length if we didn't

expect to profit illegal porn streaming and private providers have resulted in considerable losses in recent years gamble only time will tell whether the op one really does offer a way out of the crisis more and more videos are becoming available online but what's the attraction. no mortal in tokyo is one of japan's leading producers. when you watch a p.r. on a t.v. or a p.c. screen it's usually from a bird's eye view of the real v.a.r. emphasizes the experience much more. of a. customer feels as if he could really touch the girl that he has real eye contact or that he can feel her breath next to his ear. so the media it's a completely different view or perspective to a standard movie that. i found the unusual perspective unsettling.

first impression it's really very detailed a little bit weird to watch to be honest because the woman in that clip i just saw she appears shoot this distortion is linked to the distance between our pupils which is different for every person the images are set to a standard distance but if this doesn't correspond to the eyes of the person wearing the glasses the proportions will be distorted. the filmmakers of soft on the amount produced that was in this studio everything here is why. this ensures that the background is in this directing and allows the producers to better direct of us focus. on what. we had to do and my mother the strength of b.r. is that it enables different forms of interaction was taken the could allows you to get to a place you couldn't get to before so into action is the magic word this combination

of technology and emotion is something that can be found most of all in japan according to not alina hi the british author and podcast the focus is on ethical issues related to digital technologies. amazing innovation and. if you think. a lot of people in a lot of places you are very expressive of their affection for technology and you may end up going into a great relationship ok i kind of love my smartphone too but that's as far as it goes somebody observations already enable you to build your dream papa does that really create deeper connections. being able to configure a virtual partner like in a computer game and having custom made avatars thanks to computer generated images this is a future v.a.r. producer yasha moto finds promising. it will be possible to design individual body parts such as breasts waist or hips to create your ideal woman with

the help of c.g.i. you have a. sex therapist dr michelle paid to refine this technology problematic he says even normal porn films already create unrealistic expectations in his patients. you're somebody. and now we're reaching a new level here the user can actually select his or her ideal partners body. but the consequence of this would be that any real life partner would end up being compared to this fantasy product. how does it constitute missing lots. not only not high also worries about consequences this comparison can hand she researches ethical issues surrounding digital technologies we have an old. human being and believes about it's actually quite a complex issue if you end up real beings humans trying to emulate. themselves

in order to look more like that's the reality count models real people trying to look more like virtual of a tot's sounds pretty dubious to me but they are already reports about people having plastic surgery for that reason cutting edge technology and the sex industry seem a good match for not a few has long been a driver for technological advancements by the passion boss the author of the erotic engine is certain that without tomography the internet would not have grown so quickly not convinced well yes some examples online payment systems without paper on size the payment would be a simple and secure as it is today online streaming without with streaming software developed for pornography sites media platforms would struggle to deliver news clips online advertising without advertising from sec size many free internet services wouldn't exist and now we are even in the development of sex toys

experiments are being made but virtual reality and for once the products on offer are not mainly targeted at unmet we are what. this explanation of surprise is from an ad by dutch sex toy manufacturer the company offers a vibrator that can be linked to v.r. glasses by an apple special vibrations which correspond to what's happening in the film or transmitted by the gadget. of course there are similar products for men to for example virtual made a device for men that works with. b.r. and real time sensors and promises a realistic erotic experience. such devices can also be linked using apps and controlled remotely by someone's partner possibility that some couples find appealing. but i think nothing that enables us to relate more fully with someone else especially when so many of us are at

distance or for instance in a pandemic if you looked in different cities and it's going. to express your desire for the other partner and a different way and so i think it is designed to create a connection in a way that people want and that's one. sense of the cover of night and pandemic began digital adult entertainment services have become more popular well direct physical contact is rather difficult at the moment especially for singles the u.s. point website caught up as reza says up to 25 percent more hits on that site this year and if people really miss physical contact that's why resource is currently being conducted about how to make virtual experiences even better one promising possibility special suits that simulate touch and warmth. and technology when paired with yassin could be really powerful because it gives us a physical it's a physical sensation that he. to digital touch and that's going to be much more

plentiful and much more real and physical. and just having some. auditory. soft on demand in tokyo is currently working on integrating additional sensations the goal is to eventually include all of our senses in the video experience. at the moment we're testing new technologies to make the v.o.r. experience even better this a lot easier for example we're working on a technology for smells like a woman's mouth to thank you. well feel taste prospects seem busying already offers the possibility to slip into other characters or other bodies or for example to playfully change sex if we are not amiss. the sense of anonymity can give us a great feeling of freedom to disclose and to be honest and. able to express things that we might otherwise and difficult so i think given the actual reality office

that possibility it is very possible that we can be more insular that could technology really help us to better understand our own sexuality and so to gain a better understanding of others in real relationships it's an interesting thought if you like i don't know i might not be wondering all of us will not only want to have sex in our bedrooms but in the dream worlds that are most exciting for us on that one instance that. that would be one way i could see virtual reality providing exciting possibilities for users in everyday life. not just as pornography but for couples as well you know not service you know so come on. to be our sector is expecting the market to grow to 13 and a half 1000000000 euros by 2022 and this includes sex products after all many people enjoy exploring new options we are very adaptive as humans and we can learn to find all sorts of things that exciting and erotic and normal even the amount of

time to get used to it so yeah i think a lot of us will end up expanding our sexual records income this that remains to be seen we're quite a way are really natural looking and i and i think a certain point we might end up singing but in the other direction and once in real physical human contact with human beings. what do you think what do you try adrià sex to technology and feelings go together share your opinions with us on facebook on d w dot com if you want to know more about. a reality check out our you tube channel that's it for me thank you your next hour.
