it was an especially touching moment for alison because he lost his father recently facon brazil in a tragic drowning this year. all that you are up to date up next is all covered $900.00 special and reminder you can find much more on a web site that has details the top college arena mohammed that's watching. the fight against the coronavirus pandemic. has the rate of infection been developing what does the latest research say. information and context the coronavirus update. on t w. how does

a virus spread. why do we panic and when will. we just threw the tap. and the weekly radio. if you would like and the information on the coronavirus or any other science topic you should really check out our podcast you can get it wherever you get your podcast you can also find those at. science. in india some covert 900 patients are developing a rare but dangerous infection dubbed black fungus you call my cosas. typically stuck in the airways it spreads through the body affecting the sinuses old lungs then bones and body tissue the fungus can also attack the eyes and brain. if left

untreated it can be fatal. i'm big physical and nice to have you along it's important to note that black fungus is extremely rare in india it normally affects around $100000.00 people a year according to one study that's less than one percent of the population but now because spittles are reportedly diagnosing it in patients every 2nd day in these ongoing 2nd wave of patients are especially at risk because their immune system is weekend and that may be contributing to the rising cases of black fungus in india. all of a queerly is from the european excellent center for invasive fungal infections in cologne 1st of all what are the symptoms of a fungus infection. well the symptoms of cosas that infection is unspecific runny nose fever but then it might turn into a specific sign and it. gets across and across will look like

that is why it's actually cold fungal disease it's not really a columnist it's a different class of fungi but it looks black on the skin if you explain what actually happens to a patient what they go through what they experience well best fungus all those who really you know are destroying tissue imagine that there is a science to this caused by the fungus that doesn't stop there but it actually moves into the boom and it might destroy bone and then move into the next neighboring organs and tissues and it could be. there for patients are reported to me and set well i woke up in the morning and couldn't see anything on this one i was actually not painful because it destroys nerves. ok it's not painful but the consequences a severe i mean can you can you treat it and can you treat it soon enough to

prevent something like that happening. well if you feel it you can treat it but it's difficult to get the right point to exactly understand what's happening because the symptoms are specific you could treat it with either surgery or with follicles that's the end of it's directed against directed against fungi or you combine both but you need to be really really fast at all of it tell me why it's such a problem in india right now i guess there are several reasons why this is one respect before you come across as which is a well known respect or is diabetes and specifically uncontrolled diabetes means that very high levels of blood sure are glucose at your blood. that triggers the invasion of the tissues of the of the phones. in india and the region

of message number of patients with diabetes who are at risk or mentally even without her own. another reason i say is the exposure to the fungus the fungus lives it's saw oil decay material. you'll will be more exposed to soil in the rule area of the india then you are for example in the area and journey with climate is completely different and. another reason. that i envision. for my colleagues in india and other countries is that they use steroids for example to get cool with 19 under control and haitian steroids increase the lot of

sugar they mimic a diabetic situation. that the pounds will take advantage of so all of us should people be wired in other parts of the world where coronavirus case numbers are also high in other parts of the world the real problem is not that large as we see in these asia india. the reason might be that fungal infections are not that frequent in other regions north america europe for example south america has a different pattern of. like osis has so far only been diagnosed in a tiny minority of patients we don't know on africa actually the australian will be very similar to. the old with a lower number of your so it's different regions of the planet have different

fungal infections. and all of it just lastly this was something i'd never even heard of before the show is that something that makes your work difficult i mean getting the funding to research is something that's quite fascinating it's something that's not frequent but. something like it. yeah that's true it's infrequent and for these. infections there's almost there is almost no way to get funded so it's heavily underfunded that's one reason why we only have basically 3 drugs that we can use against these fungi which is wait a while a number that's too little and it's toxic drugs quite some of them ok we'll have to leave it there thanks for your time today all of a can easily and the european excellence jennifer invasive fungal infections thank

you very much. time to as a more of your questions now over to our science correspondent eric williams. why aren't injected vaccines manufactured as a single unit instead of having the vaccine in the syringe separate this is a great question one that i've never really actually considered before right now most vaccine manufacturers are are filling and shipping multi-dose vials of vaccine that contain between $5.15 doses on site at the vaccination center or at the doctor's office staff then have to painstakingly draw them into syringes in a complex time consuming series of steps where we're a lot could actually go wrong due to human error and and there are a lot of other issues with the vial system not least that once the seal on one has

been broken all of the doses in the bio have to be used quickly leftovers can't just be stuck back in the fridge for use later so so since everyone is getting their own syringe anyway why aren't machines just pretty filling them directly as a single unit instead of putting large batches of doses in vials 1st prefilled single shot syringes are already the norm in some parts of the world for vaccinations against other pathogens but that there appear to be 2 primary reasons why the older vial system has been the method of choice so far for the mass 19 vaccine rollout the 1st is speed with manufacturers churning out hundreds of millions of doses it's simply faster for them to squirt 10 of the time into a single vial that it is to fill 10. separate syringes with the pandemic in full

swing getting as much vaccine as possible out there has been vital and the 2nd factor is cost until now single dose prefilled syringes have been more expensive to produce but but many manufacturers say that's changing and that pre-filing syringes is actually more efficient because then you don't need millions of medical grade glass vials so so when demand for 1000 vaccines begins to slow i think that you can expect prefilled syringes to grow in popularity because they have so many advantages. the u.s. centers for disease control is no longer recommending face masks for fully vaccinated people but the c.d.c. says mosques are still recommended in crowded settings like buses planes and

hospitals and anyone who isn't fully vaccinated will still have to wear one over half the u.s. population has received at least one dose against the current buyers. dancing is often about intimacy getting close and connecting foreign concepts in times like these but not impossible as these creative guys explain whether online or in the open air. at the earliest each one downside home hold everything. in the world but since the summer of 2020 there's been meeting at the former temple hold airfield a huge public park not far from the center of berlin. big field. that can be a lot of people and we can feel. close north which retail felt here today it is really beautiful there is really kind of a connection no. there's

a neutral connection. it was here the 1st moment of call and i have about if you don't know. what school is going on so we would comply and you know what places that useless read me. that would be me to stay clear with my mind then go doctor and save the. euro land based choreographer alvin called came up with the idea for the on line down sessions he calls a duel so pleasure. who's been staying with his family in canada also down since along with the participants from around the world. and are streamed online so anyone from anywhere can join in and. really about their their own journey and then because we tap into the research

together we tap into the music together we create the community so this is what i really enjoy is that we're all taking ownership of where we are and then we need to gather with the music and the guy. whether you're here in a berlin park elsewhere in the world they are down together. i want to know where alpha got those shorts thanks for watching. these happy she got a spot at cologne institute for inclusive education. here people like jenny who have mental disabilities are trying to be education specialists they know the issues mentally disabled people deal with 1st hand. academic track. for people with

disabilities closer. look. india. having an address is a fundamental right that's long been denied to residents of slums a digital pilot project uses mobile data to get the child it's an address. for me the foundation is this videos fight off anything that wasn't going to top it follows an easy path to the we've got a good look. at it. in 60 minutes d.w. . look closely. listen carefully. don't know listen to this today good.

discover who. subscribed to documentary on you tube. today we're going to meet several people who have intellectual disabilities have signed up for a 3 year program looking trained in this education specialists at the university level. the candidates are being interviewed today here at the institute for inclusive education in cologne.

the program is aimed at helping individuals who have disabilities become more fully integrated into the academic world and to help them meet more independent lives a total of 50 people applied to be admitted to the program. there's a lot of competition the best and i don't know what to expect to get one if they go back to that but i'm excited about that after it is instituted we want to promote inclusion in higher education. you know find. out i said i'd be like a different sort of professor at exactly the university lecture me out there like that a lot. ok here i am you were born in the wrong

war yes i speak 3 languages. persian kurdish german wow. i suffered from oxygen deficiency early on and i caused some visual impairment in my optic nerve but my disability is not an obstacle for me it's just. wish people would give me more time to say things. if you. want to hear them advice been living with this disability for 28 years now. i've had a lot of ups and downs that normal people haven't gone through but i can get along fine when i have to. just. most of the candidates have jobs and workshops for people with disabilities i don't think she knew she worked there until they find out what the given excepted for the university training program.

i have a learning disability so it takes me longer to memorize things i suffered from a lack of oxygen and that destroyed some of my brain cells. it's just something that i have to deal with sometimes i think about it point a bit and it's not always easy for me to come to terms with it. i munch is blind for a long time he's been looking for a job it's more challenging. i need more work please. sound proofing material coming if you will. that since monday february 22nd 2016. i need more again.

cheney enjoys he choppiness most a workshop. turns out dan snyder is a chance there i got a chance now to teach people about what life is like for those who have to civility said to me in the not only am i think that's really exciting find that. florian lives in his own apartment and his mother's house was not as they used to say probably never learn to walk. do you recognize these photos. that was in lipstadt the right before they put you on the ventilator that you were breathing for several days with the help of the machine. and then things slowly started to get better. oxygen deficiencies among infants can cause serious problems in development florins mother has learned

to cope with the situation based father has not. i think it was incredibly difficult for his father to accept that florian is the way he is. or was at that time. if they wanted to for very long the i think he always wanted a son that he could do things with like roller blading or playing football but when florian was growing up that just wasn't possible. now how did you deal with. it was tough very difficult. but i said to myself he's my son it doesn't matter that he has a disability he's my child and i love him just the way he is or don't.

come when i look at pictures from when he was younger. and then think about all that he's accomplished in his life. yeah it's pretty amazing. come on now stop it. start trying to. communicate with her it's hard for me when i think that a problem i had when i was born can. make such a big difference later on. everything's good c'mere. that's really not ok when i look back on it now it's really just. a thought i think

you've done so well flow just a few minutes can change your life forever. new clues just a few minutes. weeks later ministre disappear technical university unclog decided to join a training program. were very impressed if you know you sound happy yeah. and i just want to say that i'd really like to have you on our program i'm so pleased yeah you know i'm glad. that workshop was like jail and i had to get out. and now you can then. dad congratulations. yeah yeah. yeah. yeah yeah. for the last month or so he's been saying that he's the 1st college

student in our family. that i kept my fingers crossed that this would happen and now it has clicked the. mayor come out. right in there and i wanted to say that we were all very impressed with you and we think that you'd make a good education specialist and we'd like you to join us. i have a training position yet. 2 almost all of the trainees have attended special schools but not a university challenge the educational opportunities had seemed limited that's going to change some. of the games and in this whole way we have classrooms on the right and left if you cannot go to the output in some cases the professors conduct

seminars the can last up to 90 minutes before pleasure. is that what we're going to do and we had a lecture like that in the 3rd semester in a room like you see here on the phone often for that is so we stand up in front of the class and teach i think right now for 2 of. you. participants will face a number of the challenges in this program by. the time you have 3 years to learn the road course it'll go by quickly that. i have tons of questions but i think this may be the longest job title in the building by the social worker and social education specialist i would have to say and this means master right. master of science guy with

a master of disaster when i get a must in my brain shuts down that's all it takes place not to get this exercise is aimed at helping you to get to know each other better now and then it's called the triangle of common ground. no 15. 2 group begins by sharing their likes and dislikes like the world would but that is something that was. simply they have much in common. was it that's great a friend of mine does that new music yeah. right but then of music there is a guy there who i like everything and i think i like writing. it. down try to write this down there tried i don't like writing i mean either. yes. and we can also write about what he will be i'm having common.

dave and what should i write that we both have muscle spasms 1st more so than let's start like this keep it simple. to do no offense but there is some things that i don't like to talk about this. though i do when i have as much you can talk to me normally it's just worth of the. killing in fabien quickly find out that they have a lot in common and not just a disability. now discover more like. 2 months later the training program is moving model who wouldn't follow. it's been here i'm the university instructor here. i'm doug my bros and i. want us

and over there other students and with their little shy. the students start by introducing themselves to one another crazy a month where are you from indonesia i am happy. that. you have this very common and other forms of welcome everyone i'm really glad that you're here today for our joint seminar. supported decision making. positions. to get fired and so on we'd like you to tell us a bit about herself so. if you want. for example whether you'd like to start a family as it is shown by my top priority right now is my career at. the last is done and once you get a job and then figure out how to do it here's how to invite what i pick can be a lot of fun. so i'm ready for anything with which i was awful.

good where you guys can explore different options of of them you can say i'll do this seminar and then this one and this one all the way there we can do that too but because of our disability our choices are limited to have different produce from for what the. postscripts have learned a lot today was. the fall of the seminar i was a bit nervous i hadn't had a lot of contact with people with disability it's not even a school. understand that so it was unusual. but every night the seminar. for talks to us openly and that was really impressive for them if i were to get up early the shift that i think we were a little shy at 1st just stood in the corner. and then they started asking us all kinds of questions. i thought the seminar was great and we got a lot out of it. going on. the program participants have to get used to one

source of experiences that include speaking to a group today actress and performance coach if you need to do list to help them develop their skills. up to a month or. so sure in the us it's good to have you folks here i'm pleased to be here. and i really do looking forward to this. meeting you. go hey what are some of the things you can do to make a good impression on your audience in the you know in perth you have to present yourself with all farsi. what do you mean by authority of the public this make you go to show people that you want to tell them something it's like you're saying to the audience hey look at me i've got something important to tell you. both yes i smile so you draw attention to yourself. right ok very good what else

has parts not. all this punch but now you need to be a bit spontaneous and teach people in a way that's not boring and make someone to interact with you and taxi to. the middle so can we say that you should try to make the best impression possible. as something that. would evolve as a script that well there's no right way or wrong way to talk to an audience i use a lot of different techniques and each of us here today will do it in their own way . it would really be a shame if we all sounded the same that wouldn't be interesting and no one would listen life is brick. and one is also now i'd like you to tense up some of your muscles keep breathing naturally don't make it to tense out ok

ok let's do the biceps 1st tense the muscles and keep holding it for 15 seconds says it all on your mark get set go. on hand release that does get the kept breathing normally right ah that's a good exercise isn't it now. each of the might to 1st presentation in front of the group. or the 1st they're meant to fly all over people need is freedom but you can't find that freedom with me. we laughed a lot together and did a lot of stupid stuff in there to comfort the boy but in the future the word we has no meaning for you. i often go out and look for

a place that belongs only to us where no one can disturb us the time i spent with you was wonderful but that's over now and it has no place in my future. i'll wait for you at the next traffic light the next red light. and i won't start my car without you thank you. in the way. that sounded natural well not exactly well done that's the way to do it. was powerful stuff i found really powerful. one has to decide if you can set up the lectern anywhere you want it raise it or lower it so that you feel comfortable when you speak. you don't want to keep looking down 1st of all that's important for proper breathing and 2nd you can make better eye contact with the audience feel and what i want to tell you florian and this is important for all

of you set things up before you get started. high. wait wait they can't even see you yet the 1st week ok you're standing by the door because that you've just come in so now i'll guide you over there ok ok without him because i was a good. start you told. leave her. alone without. me or you know move. haha now to our was. oh.

yes. i. know me and i'm not sure how many check the fact 8 months now to become friends tonight a man she wants to and she said tease me hubby tennis could be so damn pain it always work from the center line you can feel it with your feet. it's time for the next cut you miss it now find the centerline. of the missing step back a bit. oh oh. it's not a matter of a year. so what do you think 2 of the great. goodness if that mean we have to fill up the lines now conceded new.

york. to middle standing if you're. sorry you don't believe him he's not a bit sorry i know he may mean it was. going to ok your up. at the club. today but i think you. know when in fact being each other brother without disabilities or they get him quited with them if you get in ice road they sound. great thanks like this something. oh. yeah we know we've still got time on just roll my chan down that if you go we'll push you. on for but us today so let's look at what was it like for you guys growing up as twins. because of his disability and some of them false and so none.

of the strong powerful i think i had a few advantages i think of if you just by the end of our example at school he used to have a lot of problems but our parents always tried to raise us the same way they still do games the. bible they made sure that we both did things together d.d.'s fishlike convocation off we go way up in the mountains if you meet a who're of avoiding any of what i'm going to take him up there whether he wanted to go or not i lived so that we could all share the experience socially and of course we had the usual squabbles that all brothers did for coffee. just like us but i didn't get to be boring when. as a. little bit of turf it's completely different for every one. facet of our father more or less favored me over my brother to be honest. i didn't have any say in the matter and i didn't ask my father for any special favors or floor

when i was little. and that's what he does and it wasn't easy to get out of that situation because later our father just wasn't there for us. but i think that this brought flooding on and me closer together. and now we get along just like any other brothers do that someone wouldn't let us know. afterward flowing through not about that conversation in accounting early. in now realizes how much he misses his father. he wonders with he should contact him and tell him about the teacher training program. there were a little me he always wanted me to change some how will do things differently quote

him for me but i want him to see that i've come a long way all by myself. had done that wouldn't have happened if i didn't have a disability so it's sort of a blessing in disguise your 1st place of my it's i think if you really love your child then it doesn't matter how he's developed because then you don't say ok now with this program he's had a positive development and if you were still in the workshop for example then i wouldn't regret it then i still would have done everything right but that doesn't really change anything that's when it's him with his dad could say right now that he regrets leaving us but that doesn't make up for all the years that he was gone and so now to this is really the answer i'm sure well i just want to see how he'd react to find out whether he still cares about. i needed to have that when i was younger it doesn't matter why he left us i just want to find out whether he still cares. but how would that help you. do you still really need that.

thank you. is to conduct. a search and now it's getting closer and closer and it's just making me crazy how many miles. of that i'm also really excited and sometimes all that makes me cry. that's how i get the emotion out of my system both. but that's a natural reaction. you're not an actress you should just be yourself. it's good to see people as they really young. back after that i don't want to screw up the seminar and we won't because we'll work pretty well together and help each other it'll turn out fine i. cannot in months now this

group has been trained to become university teachers been studying each patient and improving their public speaking skills and. i'm doing the introduction tomorrow for for i'd like to read it to you and then you can tell me what i need to fix. for sure thing what you should run through in this. i'm taking part in the training program at the institute for inclusive education. this 3 year full time program is unique in europe. it's a participant complete program and pass a final exam tell behind it is education specialists at the university level.

to get through today's the day we're all excited and so are you but probably less than we are. anyway i'm pleased to be able to present to you the 1st in our series of seminars it's called my world sharing our expertise on disability. mind to mention can some people may know this but i'll read what i've written down here we are loud and we wanted others steal our rights i think that's important to me and to the rest of us that they come take away our rights and stand up please. i'm right here but don't stand in front of me i won't be able to see the audience. so now we're going to play and get to know your game and i think i'll say my name and make a motion. is an exact thing go ahead i'm crazy

a munch on this and your motion. i'm the loud. and that's your movement. and i'm quiet ruth. loudly quiet route brave. and intelligent is that there. is still joe there and right now i feel like i was a burden to do this job oh. i still can't get used to hearing the word lecture but i'm working on it because it would. do you think that we're all different from you. was not at all this is the this is did you do a lot more things than i did that. you've got all these habits which i don't have

it's mostly next year all 7 who begin teaching courses in social studies medicine design was. wonderful as they want to understand what life is like for us and we can explain that to them. and when you do that it triggers something positive inside you. prefer move all below. can forward to doing this it's a great job for him to come to him but not go follow that up. i think that the students. learn a lot to hear that you know. he patted you sound off absolutely. wouldn't be.
