a window into their life that you will never, never see me accompanied research team to the pacific to conclude the language of wales starts june 4th on d. w. the a crisis reaches far beyond public health concerns corrode of ours locked downs. i've been feeling a surge of unemployment in india, which experts say could log out last dependent. also coming up in the signals of either global to me, to show you what's behind the wild, weak currency. and we take a look at how the world's hunger for timber was driving, illegal logging, concerned, and welcome to develop while the pandemic itself is taking

a devastating toll and india in terms of the number of death, it has also recovered on the countries economy. unemployment is soaring with millions added to the jobless list in recent weeks. and the last locked down by various states has led to a spike, the unemployment rate, which has almost doubled to just on the 15 percent. now that is the highest level in the year locked down. so for many people to leave urban areas for the villages, but they cannot find jobs in india for more in those that's bringing dw corresponded media, arrive in more by needy, who in particular is affected by this. so primarily the data which is reflecting right now is showing that the unemployment has and the unemployment also lot of factories have don't normally fmc deal. and lot of the strong,

small hospitality industry is completely dated and evolution industries can review dieters. everybody across the spectrum has been a factor wherever needs to step on can do that, therefore of right from the population to little population each and every sector. close the spectrum is impacted by this and maybe some, say the root of the problem is actually not pandemic. related but actually it stems from a time before the health crisis. what merit is there to this claim? oh, actually it has a lot of merit in it because in 2016 the government in india came up with the monetization and why they called me got a video roared shock artifact. and after that, in 2017, we came out with a 10 services tax. so they can, we never bought time enough to recover from both the shocks. and after that we have

seen the solution in multiple sectors and there was unemployment or high and then came over. so yes, before, even before the game in india, they didn't call me, was these eliminating, i'd already have week are we then looking at a long term problem here, then right. no. the problem in india is normally the unemployment. the unemployment has diener trouble before also. but not investment is also problem. normal sectors have already thought that they do not look at recovery. autumn will be sector which is the highest employment giving sector in the country and said that they have seen a lot of 30 percent of business in this in the 2nd we've itself. so this is going to state but with this power b and then the vaccine challenges and they want to put challenges. unemployment is just a part of the media. ryan, my bye. thank you. now

the world of crypto currencies is used to wild weeks, but this one has been wilder than most on may, 9th bitcoin was worth more than $58000.00 must just 11 days later it had slept, slipped to $40000.00. now that's a loss of the 3rd. on wednesday alone, bitcoin posted its largest one day drop since march last year with losses across the entire sector, approaching one trillion dollars. i brief rally faded quickly with more losses piling up today. for more of this, let's bring in bruno. alright, movie all now. sorry. moving on, ned, been 9 months since a huge explosion devastated the port of the lebanese capital bay route, as part of the pledge to support reconstruction. a delicate delivery has not arrived in germany, almost 60 containers of hazardous waste released by the blasts that couldn't be

disposed off in london. the congo ship are more and he does heads to the container, port of the hymns, often after some 6300 kilometers at sea. on board 59 containers filled with toxic material from the lebanese port of bay root. the nelson company and northern germany will dispose of it over the next few weeks. its managing director says they deal with hazardous waste like this every day of their industrial chemicals and household chemicals like industrial hydro, clark acid, but also nail polish remover toilet cleaner and other substances. they seek out uncontrollably and mixed together. we sorted them according to laboratory analysis and repackaged them upon allusion is wanting to find noise back on august 2020, a devastating explosion ripped across the port of the route and much of the city.

the destination killed more than 190 people, an injured over 6000. initially, the containers will be stored at vill hymns, haven't in the village of the house. after that, they are toxic contents will be destroyed by using things like high temperature furnaces. odo kramer has founded a citizens initiative. he's afraid of having the toxins so close to the village. he feels badly informed and doesn't believe a landfill is suitable for the poisonous cargo and goes, how many do you, what quantities are we talking about? is v as even designed for that. are there any floor plans here or extraction systems? is the fire department involved? is the civil protection involved? and we're the, we asked toxic waste expert man for exam 10 from greenpeace. he thinks disposal is a good idea. it's certainly better to have these materials properly evaluated,

as they did, than packaged and sent here to be properly disposed of the 2nd factor. but john gene also says germany can solve the waste problems of an entire region. the 3000000 euros needed to dispose of this waste came from the port of bay route and the european union. right, let's returned our story to a wild. we crypto currencies are having. and let's bring in, bruno restaurant to for more on this is a partner lecture partners in zurich, bruno great to have you on the program. now, us regulators are signaling tighter scrutiny for crypto currencies. china band institutions from providing crypto currency services. are these the main reasons behind these wild swings we've been saying? good, good afternoon. well, i think the, the main reasons for the swings. there's a lot of finger pointing after having has been going as one of the best performing asset classes in 2020 even mosque is being named 1st promoting it and then

pulling back on that statement. the chinese authorities in discrete and hearing on the regulation, also in the us. those are clearly reasons that are mentioned. the main reason that could be the cause is the d leveraging of financial counterpart days because they went to high end leveraging and had to sell off some of the bits going all coming at the same point and creating a major decline. that is one of the reasons that is not also mentioned, but that could be seen. one of the, one of the reasons they're, the people who are saying that the swings could be part of a growing concern among investors. that the time of money is coming to an end also . well, i think it's clear that biscuit was used as an alternative for inflation hedging to gold. what became clear now is that is clearly a risk on investment with

a lot of potential. but at the same time, i think investors now realize the volatility being an issue did normally with a t at the time that you needed potentially being an issue. the energy consumption . i mean, all of those elements have been brought to the surface, which might have investors reconsider. and especially the ones that went into the crypto currency as an almost certain way to make money. and those were the last minute investors. they will definitely be scared away. and could be an indication that some accesses in the market are disappearing. burner i want to touch on the, on the issue of scrutiny again. what do you make the fact that tighter scrutiny? how does that actually add to credibility of crypt this occurrences? and for example, the stands the financial institutions towards these asset classes. well, i think a critter, currencies have the,

the same advantage as disadvantage. it is that they are outside of the system. that is clearly something that you authorities on like whether it's for the protection of the smaller investors or whether it's for their own protection. it's clear that they do not want to see that's continuing. everyone is talking about the currency, so it will come eventually. the way i think you could look at it is like in 1975. when the video was announced, there was a struggle between better much v h s, and video to thousands. we knew that the video would come, but we didn't know which system would eventually prevail. and i think that's a situation wherein which crypto currencies it might be a state controlled crypto currency that eventually makes it to the market. but we are not there yet. strata of lake field partners, thank you for your thoughts. thank you. illegal logging in the south american country of sara nom is a longstanding problem and it's getting worse as the world hunger for lumber

increases with china, india, and taiwan. all big consumers. much so much is sold online companies which are hard to track. now there is also evidence that all the 40s are involved in this trade. not so long ago, these logs with giants of the rain forest, hundreds of years old. now, most of them destined for china, but the former dutch colony of sir, and i'm not seeing an economic benefit as more than half of the logging is illegal . seron i'm, it's estimated to lose $100000000.00 euros the year due to illegal logging. the money goes straight into the coffers of criminal cartels if they want to fail. this is one of the many port from which timber is being exported according to my informants. this is the place where most of the timber is shipped and exported illegally bought every year, sir, and i'm produces nearly one and a half 1000000 cubic meters of wood. the timber is mostly sold on websites like

this, making it very difficult to track down the companies buying and selling china and india, the biggest customers. the authorities try to keep an eye on illegal activity using satellite images and drones, but controlling the millions of heck as of rain forest in serene m is next to impossible. and even if they discover illegal logging, it's difficult to take action. corruption is endemic. whenever the ceci hold that is meant to be the concession holders, the people who cut and ship the would people who carried out inspections here in the port. they're all involved in the chain of the legality. when a recent find of 100 containers filled with illegal timber, suggests that public officials may also be involved in the illegal simba trade. when the whole was discovered, customs officers had already sealed the containers for export and that's

a show. thanks for watching. have yourself a success. the news? news . just fight against the corolla virus pandemic. how has the rate of infection been developing? what does the latest research say? information and context? corona virus, not because of 19 special. next on dw, you ready to get the nice places in europe are smashing all the records step into

a venture. just don't lose your grip. the treasure map for modern globe trotter gover. some of europe's wicker break insight into book form o i was still learning about because at 19 we know it came from an animal. what does that mean? they also need the jap how the very friends can become carry isn't the disease. and in rare instances turn into a risk corona's me safari pot, susan shelters have started inoculating ates lions and wolves to protect us and the

animals experimental vaccines is specifically made for them. the conservation is to say, we brought the so now self by our respective nature, hosting animals ever closer to humans. ah, a team of experts met for the 1st time this week to help develop a global plan to stop despite of diseases from animals to humans. meantime, russia has developed the 1st corona virus vaccine for animals, releasing an initial batch of 17000 doses, researches in finland and the us are working on similar jobs. this cat is a pioneer all be at an unwilling one cache other cat is one of the 1st recipient of the 1st ever cove. at 19 vaccine for animals is owners, daniel, and say they signed up for the vaccination just to be on the safe side. all

of us, all our cat goes outside a lot. sometimes he doesn't even come home at night because he's doing his own thing, but he lives with us. so we're always concerned, he could bring an infection home with him. we plan to start a family and heard that cove. it could be dangerous for pregnant women, so it's better to be safe. it doesn't hurt the cat, believes and look at the vaccine will provide these cats with immunity from the corona virus for at least 6 months. according to the doctors here, subordinate would, animals can show respiratory symptoms of the disease problems breathing a cough or a loss of their sense of smell. essentially the symptoms are the same as they are for people just in a much, much lighter form watching. i guess missing that i'm pretty willing but it's not the symptoms themselves that are a concern here. the world health organization has warned that animals, including minx could become carriers for the corona virus and even pass it back to people. last year, 17000000 minks were cold. in denmark,

after some of them caught cobit 19, the russian made vaccine called carney vac. cause could prevent that. according to developers, the country's veterinary and agricultural watchdog ross, it was not as or began trials on rabbits, dogs, cats, foxes, and other animals in october. now they say the job is ready for mass production. what soon as mentioned about the way the community vaccine was developed as a preventative measure, something aimed at the future in case there are negative situations like the development of a mutation that can be passed between different types of animals. we shouldn't forget that any measures for disease prevention for animals prevent people getting sick as well, because around 70 percent of human diseases come from animals. numerical, behold, it all driven. the vaccines developers say there has already been demand for the job from businesses in several european countries, including in germany are said it was not sore. recommends the vaccine for animals

kept in close contact, including at for farms and zeus. they say that for now, pets like these cats are very unlikely to become a risk to their owners. tell us mit and place it into the iteration of institute. are we taking things a little too far? it's almost fascinating animals or is that the strategy that we may need to beat this pandemic? i think we have to define what animals we actually mean. if we could talk about pets, for example, i mean pets get infected from their infected owners, but there is no single documented case that pets actually transfer the virus back to humans. the situation is different for, for producing and the most like for example, mnc there at the infection in mnc farms originates from yeoman's, but then mink replicate the virus to a large extent and then are able indeed to re infect humans. so there are documented cases in that aspect when it comes to pets. how much of this is money

maker would you say, and how much is essential in terms of pets? i think, i mean, dan, that the prime procedure and not to infect them is to keep a distance if you are infected yourself. so if you are, are in isolation, then keep away from your pets as much as possible. i don't think there is an indication of from explanation of, of pets in terms of, for producing animals. the situation is a little different. there. we have the possibility that the virus replicates growth in deep in these farms to very large extent. and this can suffice to then re infect humans. so makes a nation in this particular setting might be one of the options. of course they are others and the preferred option for me at least would be mixon 8 humans into 1st place so that humans are not alone, no longer posing a danger for any most, whether they are pets or whether they are for producing animals in for producing

animals, we have seen the situation that the virus because it, it replicates it multiplies, so much at variance gets elected. and some of these variance could, at least, theoretically, indeed pose a problem. so there might also be an indication from x in eating, just kind of most to avoid the appearance of these variance. and a good point, we should think about the animals as well. of course, a lot of fun animals, they're all ready pumped with antibiotics to prevent the spread of diseases. and that's had all sorts of adverse effects on our health to i mean it and the situation with farm animals and corporate 19. there is no reason for concern as far as we can see, livestock and poultry are to a large extent or absolutely resistant towards this virus. at least this is true for, for a pix, and it's true for a chicken and ducks and turkeys. candles show

a very, very limited susceptibility, which also doesnt post a problem at the moment. so i mean, in terms of that kind of animal, i think we are on the safe side towards that intervening in nature in general, got us into this mess in the 1st place. couldn't more intervention increased risk? i mean, biases are part of nature and the function of ecosystems. i mean, it's true. viruses are proud of nature and humans are proud of the animal kingdom, initiated environments. so basically i'm, and this is what biology is all about. but on the other hand, i mean, they have been interventions in was pub, wildlife populations that are beneficial. if you have a defined population and a defined pathogen, a defined infectious agent. this could work. and examples are, for example, rabies fox mediated rabies, which has been eradicated in century or by bait,

immunization of foxes. classical find fever has been eradicated from wild boar, also in central europe by bait, immunization, and in the past has been eradicated globally. but i mean, these are special situations and i fully agree i don't thing that vaccinating wildlife populations or any intervention and wildlife populations. gibson gives a better situation. i think, i mean, it's more the change of human habits which, which is required to avoid the spill over events, but even to spill over events that happened probably irregularly. i was a part of nature where you mentioned we should all get the job. a lot of us off is that some other way we can change our behavior to lower this risk. i mean, it's difficult to define clearly the interface between wildlife and humans or livestock and humans, but definitely lowering risky contexts,

whatever they may be, is definitely one of the major measures of a decrease in risk. in general. this will also decrease, decrease to risk in these bill overs that is has to do with direct contact with animals. it has to do with going into wildlife habitat to strongly interfering with wildlife populations interfering with bio diversity. so this is a whole range of measures that actually need to be taken into account to us by the night president of the lovely institute. thank you very much for being on the show today. you're right about come as far as vaccines for humans go. here's a good question for derek williams, our science correspondent. oh, can you mix doses of different scenes circumstances have really. ready kind of force opinions to shift some on this issue. to give you an idea of how complex it's

become. let's look at the situation here in germany until a few weeks ago, mixing and matching vaccines was pretty for bowden here because the only safety and efficacy data that we had came from trials involving 2 dose regimens of the same vaccines. and because diverging from bad would mean sailing into kind of uncharted waters. then, very rare cases of serious blood clotting event sought to be caused by the astrazeneca vaccine began popping up in younger people. and that prompted authorities here to reevaluate recommendations for people under 60, who had already received a 1st dose of astrazeneca and them for the 2nd administered toes. the authorities now recommend using a messenger r n. a vaccine like the one from pfizer by on tech,

a brand new spanish study now indicates that that regimen is both safe and maybe even a lot more effective. but, and the weeks before those results came in, the authorities had to make a choice. and they decided that one risk, which in younger people is very rarely developing a serious blood clot after a 2nd dose of astrazeneca that, that outweigh the risk of mixing and matching vaccines. in general, most experts seem to think that receiving a follow up dos that's different from your 1st dose shouldn't re pose major problems. still, health authorities are pretty conservative and they want really a lot of solid proof. a recent british study looking into some combinations, indicated that mixing and matching, while apparently face, also sometimes provokes more side effects than 2 doses of the same vaccine. and

other studies looking at a range of different combinations or ongoing. and we should know a lot more by the summer in derek williams. there, i'm ben for all and thanks for watching. stay safe and see you again. ah ah, ah. the news, the news? the

news, the the, the to the point. strong opinions, clear positions, international perspective. the past 10 days i've seen the worst violence between israelis and palestinians in years a deadly flare up between the israeli army and the militant group that has peoples a world over asking middle east crisis. what can stop the cycle assigned to the point in 30 minutes on dw,

in good shape to metabolic motor bodies. our liver is our main metabolic all here. that gets rid of many talks. the consumption of alcohol and fruit toast can certainly help the whole thing, fatty liver and throat. so how can you protect your liver? good shape, 90 minutes on d w. oh. the cutting through the noise where i come from, people are known for being fair. new york can be loud, and people tell it like it, it, they call it the concrete jungle, the melting city that never. it's this energy that makes it feel like home. but amid the hustle,

it's important to listen and pay attention. because it's not just the loudest voice, this can be heard. we all have a story to tell. i see it is my daughter, the journalist, to go beyond the. now i'm based in europe and my work around the world. but my instincts for me to tell the story has what is the heart of the story? why does it matter? what impacts they focus? if you want to cut the noise to get to the truth, my name is tara kelly, and i work with me ah ah
