rachel attacks in us history for much too long. the history of what took place here was told in silence, close to the people looted and burned tulsa's, thriving greenwood district. a prop account of the dead was never completed. but some estimates say hundreds of black americans were killed. those now living in the cities say the president's visit was a vital for racial justice. and it's important because there's a beginning of admittance. there's a beginning of, let's speak on these things and try to deal with this so that we can grow and move forward. we need his prize and if we need for people to continue to learn about the race massacre and to continue to invest, to really help us move forward. looking back is one thing, but thinking about what's next is sort of the big part of it. like, what are we going to do to make things right? what are we going to do to improve our community, bud and has stayed clear of the commitment for reparation to survivors and their

descendants. that says his administration is aware that more needs to be done to address racial inequality. the u. k. government is hosting a global vaccine confidence summit as international leaders look at ways to improve uptake of covered 1900 vaccines. their job hasn't been made any easier by online skeptics raising doubt about the safety of inoculation. one coordinated campaign appears to have targeted the bio tech pfizer vaccine by offering payment. the social media influences were willing to spread misinformation me. on his youtube channel code to watch man presents his take on current affairs. a couple of weeks ago he received an ominous email, commanded eigen influence agency based in london, contacted me, which is not unusual on but what was strange was in the very 1st e mail, they said we had some information here that we would like to disseminate. i will

pay you for it. at the time, they asked him to discredit biotech at reference, supposedly secret inflammation that allegedly proved hundreds of people have died from its vaccination. he played a long and took up their offer to find out more of the gulf. don't know how late he got further instructions saying, for example, that my post should come across personal opinion by that i should not back in my sponsored posts, which by the way is illegal in germany. you got that. i should say that i came across this information myself. i was in the round the world youtube is being offered money in similar circumstances, like leo casa, who lives in france. we are at the center of, of something going on like information war. and people need to be super, super cautious of what they read about when they hear about france's health minister responded sharply to these attempts to manipulate public opinion because

they thought not when was the vast majority of french people want to be vaccinated in. and i don't think anyone from, from that or abroad can dissuade the frames with such a negative communication campaign that they told me to call for the business. according to research by german broadcaster, a r d, youtube is from other countries have already spread the dubious information in india. for example, one of these. so here, there are 2 companies who production attempts this present in youtube, or is also seen warning view as against what he calls the dangerous vaccine. se blow to the mountain forget, there are lots of famous people out there who do almost anything for cash. and it's dangerous, especially when it comes to things like collections that influences are being paid to place certain messages. go out and feel good on the board shopping to play daniel loafer, an editor of germany's net politic. not all new side has been researching the issue because and the thing that this company doesn't even exist in a british commercial register, a dummy company, that doesn't happen to have

a doorbell at the address provided clinton did, is that we found it's customers same by and large mostly to be russian line. mia co, dutchman stopped researching the topic. the supposed agency apparently figured out he was leading them on and cut all contact dw pablo fully aliya has been following the story for us to join us in studio. hi pablo. we thought that report that the agency that's responsible for pushing these rumors appears to have clients and brush up that are going to extreme length here or to discredit the biotech pfizer vaccine. why is that? well, it's, there are many reasons for it from the report start back to talk. so they're targeting this vaccine that was developed by germany and the united states. now, as we know which one of the main vaccines which are being used both here in the european union and in the united states, let's not forget the russia has its own vaccine. the sputnik v vaccine. now, french investigative media have pointed to the similarities between the did it this,

this information campaign and the official twitter account of russia. sputnik b. and we're going to see in effect, this tweet here. now a lot of what's on the feed is based on planes like this one which day where they attack m r n. a vaccines like the by on tech, pfizer and modern and vaccines. now, part of the issue appears to be dr. sputnik. the vaccine hasn't been approved for use here in the e u or in the united states to very lucrative markets. so one of the motivations could be to essentially sort of discredit their rivals, of course. now just last month, they used foreign service warned, against quote, state sponsored vaccine, this information campaigns from russia and china. and then a report that you concluded that moscow and beijing were aiming to so mistrust. and they were saying by, because what they're doing is trying to make, quote unfounded links between shots and deaths in europe and promoting russian and chinese vaccines superior. so how do you combat rumors like?

well, what's interesting is that the online monitoring group called a center for countering digital hate. i spoke to their ceo, he's the founder of it and he gave some very interesting insight. so that's like a listen. and then we can talk a little bit more the platforms themselves, facebook, instagram, google, youtube, that are critical in spreading this misinformation. they are all american and of course the legislations that can most effect the regulation of those companies. american. however, your ledger says you've additional services act, the u. k. is like just like you for the online services bill. there are things happening around the world. i think corona bowers, i'm the backseat misinformation have really crystalized for people that a small number of individuals just 12 in our analysis can produce an enormous, enormous amount of misinformation that can undermine the buyer security, not just of individual nations but of the entire world. so sumi 12 people is, is what was mentioned there to account for like the majority of this misinformation,

some of the names andrew wakefield, my sounds familiar to some people. he's the founder of the anti vax movement, the modern anti box movement. and also another big name, robert f. kennedy junior. that's right. and nephew, of course, of the former us president john f kennedy. so seems like social media companies. they're at least partly to blame for some of this misinformation. these rumors how they responded. well, they claimed that the social media platforms said that they do remove millions of posts which violate their policies on spreading harmful misinformation. and they say that they're also introducing features like, and we're going to take a look now actually one that was being used on facebook and twitter. it may or may not come up for the moment, it isn't coming up. but basically what it does is that before you re post something, and if you're forced to read it, because often you'll see you'll receive a, you know, a message or a mean and it has a headline. and it may be interesting to you. and then you'll just forward it on, well basically what it does is it makes you stop. you have to read the actual

article or say at least that you've read it, click it, and then you can send it on. so it sort of slows up the process and it means that you don't have to send it so quickly. there's also an issue with regards to where at the social media platforms are based. many of them are based in the united states. so there's also an issue to do with legislation and whether also the actual social media put on their user guidelines. certain rules should be in place and that should essentially stop the spreading of misinformation. so, multifaceted issue there and quite a complex one to deal with. all right, very interesting reporting there are reported public fully list. thank you so much . now, in fact have long been a part of the diet in asia and africa in europe. not so much, but habits are changing and as more people turn their back on animal products, some see of market developing. the european food safety agency recently approved meal worms as a human food here. and the new industry is already flourishing, with farmers hoping to transform insects into another source of protein for

european, even if just a nice one, large health or visit one of germany's largest insect fonts. the protein of the future is being grown here in a factory building in a village in southern germany. the farm is called 6 feet to eat and they're raising mealworms here. these tiny insect just over 2 centimeters long could be key to feeding the planets. in 2nd part to succeed in rich and protein living up to 70 percent of their entire masses protein. in addition to that, they're also rich and healthy. omega 3 fatty efficient. somebody like fish, fish, except with fish. you have a 2 percent sharon mega 3 fatty acid on when for somebody and some inside my especially the meal in ice housing over 14 percent. they have to be 7 times as much

for me. i said so quick to see 5, literally millions of insects are being raised here. mealworms crickets, grasshoppers. each breed with very particular needs, like steady temperatures of up to 40 degrees. the insects live for just 4 or 5 weeks before they make their way into a fridge fall into a deep sleep. that ends in a roasting oven, packaged and sent to stores, restaurants, or straight to consumers who are currently paying premium for the product. but with the u. paving the way the company hopes to produce cheaper soon kept sending up in these in new york city. there were some insects ideally suited for ethical factory farming would like me one more quicker than i currently establishing some level of automation in our processes to get away from a lot of the manual labor that is currently needed. and that's a way to cut costs. allison, but it will help bring the consumer prices down to push this bond can when the

speaker secrets recent in place. but what about all those people who can't stomach bug on their salad or their pastor? this while they can go to the noun, becca, quote, heinlein is a baker in the back, and he has been specializing in interesting ingredients like spelt or insects. his insect bread contains 20 percent me a warm flower, its pricey at over a year for a small loaf. but customers have quickly taken an interest as a given say, a positive, but we were positively surprised, especially with regards to our older customers. we thought that the younger generation would be more likely to try out something new, but in fact, it was the overseas room and that got really excited about life. and many even tried to hold me a ones to then, of course, the reason enough for the baker to hope that his store stays busy and

customers are enjoying more of his experiments or d, w. news. asia with melissa chen is up next to thank you for watching the news. news, news, news, news, news.

news, the news ah, to me or not to well. what about a sharing economy? changing thinking is changing the economy to create something new. b, nomics magazines and leaving in germany in 60 minutes on d. w. the in many countries, education is still a privilege. comedy is one of the main causes some young children work in my job. instead of going to class can attend classes only after they finish working.

millions of children all over the world can't go to school. the we ask blind. because the education makes the world more just the make up your own mind. w made for mines. the news. it's been ongoing quest for the spring began in 2011 people stood up against correct rulers and dictatorship. the hope for more security, more freedom and more dignity have their hopes been fulfilled. 10 years after the

era spring, rebellion starts june 7th on d. w. the you're watching d, w, use asia coming up today. why are so many women in east asia choosing not to have children? we take a closer look at the declining birth rate in the region and why governments are so worried with a dispatch from taiwan. up to 80 to 90 percent of the 20 been girls still haven't got married to 40 years ago. the group may already have have 22 or 3 children with thing delayed marriage and child bearing. plus the afghan government and the taliban if not by choice, but by necessity find they must get along at least on one major project. and elephants on parade in china, where are they going and why? it's

a mystery dumping wildlife experts. the news i melissa chan, thanks for joining us. china's announcement earlier this week about a change to its family planning policy to a maximum of 3 children per couple. grabbed a lot of attention, but it's not the only country in east asia facing a demographic crisis. south korea, for example, has spent billions of dollars trying to convince families to have more kids. japan's crisis has gone on for decades with serious economic consequences and tie one as well faces the same problem, dw, when you li reports from ty, pay. in taiwan, your babies are born each year. last year it had the fertility rate of less than one child per woman. if the trained,

if not reversed the negative population growth, put half a huge impact is the economy and society. family demographers, seeing john said, much of the problem comes from changes in lifestyle. this year say up to 80 to 90 percent of the 20 something group still haven't got married. the 40 years ago, the group may already have have 2 to 3 children with thing delayed marriage and child bearing. john also thinks that traditional concept in east asian americans have made women more cautious about deciding to get married hunker. taiwan probably has the best gender equality in east asia, but that is only reflected outside of the household like in education or workplace where women are more equal to men. ever in household, the workload mostly on women in terms of house for chow, racing and elder care responsibilities, hold on a sudden shop and still has been an obstetrician for 11 years and thinks that he

wants society. you should give women more flexibility in their life choices. this may be after a fisher about your master's degree, you can be pregnant and then go back to school for a ph. d. we don't necessarily have to follow certain life sequence from schools graduations to marriage and child bearing. she also supports the coupling of marriage and child bearing videos. there are so many, we made my clinic that don't want a marriage. they are hoping they can have a child that can't use the large official insemination for a single women so they can have their own child. i feel bad wish a lot of the in terms of what the family should look like for you. well, the nation's low fertility is cause for concern. it can also be an opportunity for taiwan to reconsider the tradition row of women in society. an opportunity for possibly a change for women now, as well as for future families. joining us as

d w when you lee, who filed that report when ye, the women, you know, why are they choosing not to have children? there's a lot of reasons. brazen cow i grew is the expert that told me about there's a delayed marriage, entire one. so that, of course, if for people in my, in late twenty's like for example, friends around me, they are on there. most of them are married. and for my, a close friend of mine who just marry last year just told me that she does. she doesn't want to child because there's so many expenses, they have to take care of the child's education and maybe to find a babysitter. so there's just a lot of burden and then they have a lot of concerns on financial deviation. now declining birth rates,

impact of countries, economic output, the fuel workers, you have, the less your economy will grow and that's the concern here. so what is the government of taiwan doing to convince people to have children so the government is trying to help couples to raise their children from age neuro to each stakes. i raised the child racing stuff, the be also increase the capacity of public child care centers in preschools. it has also increased the special tax deduction for those who have children age under age 5. so these or, or to help ease the parents burden and also to ease their financial. jason has tie one, considered other options such as welcoming more immigrants of course years to a lot of boys is calling for a well coming more immigrant. but this is not

a priority priority for the government. however, the government has been trying to check highly skilled for intelligence and lose their related regulations for these for him. professionals, which may also help improve tiwana population structure. but as i mentioned to the government focus more on helping parents to raise children. and of course we've mentioned this is a challenge facing east asia in general. tell us a little bit more about some of the other countries. japan, for instance, face this problem, the very earliest yes, there has been a low history of total for to if you're re decline in japan as started. if there is a force in 2000. and it happened to even earlier than its neighbors, like taiwan or south korea to pass low for till a to read how to lead to the aging population. that even the population decline more than 25 percent of the population in japan or h. c. over $65.00 with japan,

we have japan as an example. so conscious like taiwan, the south korea and even china do need to prepare well when he lee. thank you so much for joining us. thank you. we mostly see the afghan government and the taliban in conflict. but sometimes cobble has no choice but to cooperate with the militants. one of the country's most important hydro electric dams is an example of this complicated relationship. kaji ki dam provides power to more than $3000000.00 people in the country south, and is run by government forces, though it fits intel upon territory to the point that the insurgents even charge locals for the electricity generated by the dam is just another example of how the decades long conflict plays out in the most extraordinary ways. flying into a vital source of energy and income. ca,

jackie dam on the hillman river is under siege. it's controlled by the can government, but surrounded by taliban rebels. the only way government forces can get here is by air. a perilous journey run about. the taliban has attacked this area with heavy weapons. sometimes they've shut down to military helicopters as close to the dam. make the hydro electric plant provides energy to millions of people. many of them live in areas beyond the government's control. the electricity of this power project is distributed to all of a key district. and it's clear, there is a threat from the taliban and other challenges. so the government cannot collect the electricity fees. they're going to be the number it's the

taliban. the tax is electricity in areas of controls which use about a 5th of the plants capacity. the blurred boundary between combat and cooperation is something workers here experience every day to reach the facility. the need to permits a government id and papers issued by the rebels. louis phil polarity could be, we think danger on the way home and back to the down. we are crossing the front line between the government and the taliban. and several times when we were crossing the fighting started and we were caught in the conflict in the area. if it were what your food was that the taliban may tolerate the hydro electric plants staffers, but they give no respite to the government forces, guarding it from there. often lonely and exposed outposts through what they were

surrounded. if we don't have a way out by land, we have to fly 1st to kandahar, then some of the soldiers go to alaska. got couple guns are and other area. i can look. i'm a conflict with compromises. as foreign troops prepared to leave afghan to stan, perhaps the country will see more sharing of not just electrical power it's being called the longest distance migration of wild elephants recorded in china. a herd of 15 wandering elephants have embarked on a 500 kilometer journey after string from a nature reserve in china's south west. they're now on the outskirts of the major city of quin mean, where authorities are rushing to try to keep them out of populated areas. an epic truck through southwest and china destination unknown. no one certain why this

heard of 15 wild asian elephant strayed from a peaceful, national nature as in united province. one theory is that their leader lacks experience and lead the group astray. other experts say the journey is the result of human development. and that the elephant of searching for new habits, half, whatever the reason that track has become the longest distance migration of wild elephants ever recorded in china. that is that this is the 1st time in history that we've seen anything like this. it's never happened before. so everyone is trying to figure out why it's happening. we need to observe the elephant further and study them movements and have the group set houses, 16 animals that to turn around and went home. and the baby was born during the track. the herd has moved through villages, broken into bonds, trampled crops, and caused more than

a $1000000.00 of losses. but now the elephants are approaching can ming a city of 7000000 people? and wild chinese social media is full of post and videos of sightings, a task force of 360 people. and 9 drones is busy tracking the heard, desperately trying to keep them away from the most populated areas. that's it for now. be sure to check out her other stories on d. w dot com, forward slash asia, or on facebook and twitter. and we'll leave you with more pictures of the wandering elephants lumbering around china. thanks for watching and see you tomorrow. ah, the news, the news

the fight against the corolla virus pandemic. how has the rate of infection in developing? what does the latest research information and contact the corona virus off the coven, 19 special next on dw. and me species. an expedition look into this

company or research team to the pacific to the language. it starts to pours on d, w. me, facts being made in pakistan with chinese know how this factor in islamabad aims to produce 3000000. those is the across the border in india, infections and death spiking due to a new mutation packet on health ministry has detected at least one case of the new very end from india known as a delta variant. experts warn it's likely more contagious. will pakistan's vaccine push be enough to stem the tide with what time to cope with $900.00 special i want to jones and berlin. thanks for

joining us. now. the good news 1st, the number of new infections is seemingly going down in pakistan though the accuracy of the data is in question and how sustainable is this downward trend given that neighboring india is grappling with an aggressive variant. it may all depend on pakistan's ability to ramp vaccination across the country. and there's a lot of catching up to do the it's a busy day at the rabo pin d vaccination center. every resident over the age of 19 can now register to get their job with vaccines bought and donated from china and allocations from the you . in back to kovak scheme, pakistan has now secured more than 18000000 vaccine doses and it came to get them out into the population. initially, there was quite a bit of vaccination hesitancy here. but many have seen what happened in india, and they're worried. who came to the end of the, the next wave?

this coming could potentially be the worst yet when we watch videos about what's happening in india, in the people scrambling for oxygen and ventilators, we get scared that it could be like that here. so it's important. everyone gets vaccinated, so now you go ok. i would say that every pakistani should get the corona vaccine. otherwise we'll have a similar situation as we see in our neighboring country of india. we need to avoid what's happening there in the formula. they need to wait till it says people were very good. they were unsure about the side effects and all. but now there's awareness and people are coming back from a to pakistan, desperately needs to increase at the vaccination rate. so far, only about 2 percent of the population has had a shot. infection rates have been declining over the last few weeks, but the country has only just come out of lockdown feed. there's been a loosening of restriction. markets and mosque are once again busy

but in some places miss about the corona virus persist even with them on when it cannot be. and i believe that while the corona virus exists, it doesn't harm us inside the mos when we come here to pray. a 100, it is candid on the wrong the come inside the mom, this is got home and i believe that corona can't come inside it was to leave in your what in many mosques, masks are worn and social distancing. rules followed all over if the goody highest people to take care and follow what the doctor say so that we can avoid what's happening in india in the ok. yes, i will say home with pakistan recently detected the variant responsible for the recent rapid spread of new infections in india. but even if infection rates go up again, doctors are competent that a crisis like the one in their neighboring country can be avoided. we have arranged

almost 2 to 3 times of our routine services. in this hospital we have extended our ice used from 18 banks to 50 birds in recent days. and similarly, the number of oxygen port number of what regions birds have been increased to 234. meanwhile, everyone here is hoping that these new resources won't be put to the test. of a more i joined by a hush on actor he's associate professor of youth right, institute of pharmaceutical sciences and national infectious disease specialist at terminix, international in pakistan. so very good to have you with us and we have a case number's going down there. hospitals also seem to be well prepared for new cases. just all of that mean that pakistan has the corona virus pandemic under control. will you still did the counter go over it 900 his it has been including all over the world including parmesan and with

every like 1st we're thinking we have in terms of if you have learned a lot, hospitals are very big and yes, you can see that if there are no control now, but if you look toward the stairs it's still on the alarming site. ok explore. a the alarming because certainly we hear from the world health organization that when it comes to the number of new cases, there seems to be a discrepancy between those that are confirmed and those that may not have been reported. how worrying it said, well there's the, there's a good question. i guess in august on many, many patients they go to the local clinics, many are not counted. many like did a huge difference between d and, and so the count undisturbed the number they are not included as good if you,

if you talk about them, but still did issue of him to medic, people, they said no medications is also high. so we assume that the suspect is they are much higher than the child a border. ok. and especially a symptomatic infections of people with that don't, don't show any symptoms that obviously also keeps spreading virus which is dangerous. how big a role would you say? just to cope with mutations play in pakistan right now. this little impressively bug is done have been voting. the full, you know, sequencing from the start of the damage and a tanks to the national institute of health august on which was led by millionaire dr. medic. um, we reported the the okay,

the and the reported the brazilian variant we reported the saw that the convenient and this, these millions do have role in, in the spread of covered in buckets. on last week we heard around then, you know, sequencing in august and 7 out of 10 were south convenience. one out of 10 was the indian 1000000000. and in last 36 hours, we have around for more any of the. and so it is, it is the don't fall off deterred them, but still be very and question him. ok, so vaccination is key probably to keep all of those in check. and the vaccination rate however, is still very slow. is the reason for that that people basically refused to get vaccinated all the other problems supply perhaps if you talk about delete, you'll see that on 3 percent debt bucks done is the candidate now but,

but to hear the population in august, the news huge. it's around over 200000000 people, and definition in pocket done now. today is around more than 300030. so we are doing all of this and it has also been commercially available now. so we hope that in the near future we will be able to go back now. right. commercially available means it costs money to get vaccinated. yeah, mostly in a more than 90 percent of the 3. but still, if actually development has divided between the age groups and professional life. so the healthcare workers and the, the other professionals, they were a candidate 1st. but who cannot be done? he can go and, but she has it right. professor actor reporting here about the situation in

pakistan right now. thank you so much for your time. thank you. thank you so much. now, one thing is, certain vaccines are key. the pandemic has for science to react quickly and develop vaccines that can stop. sorry cove too, but can they do even more than that time for your questions though, over to our science correspond derek williams. oh, you could 19 except for some pretty to few other types of grown up viruses. the pandemic has turbocharged research into corona viruses. we've learned a huge amount about them in the last 15 frantic mines, including in an area called a cross reactivity, which involves how the immune system can react to similar structures on the surfaces of different types of viruses. in other words, how your body might not have to learn everything from scratch about

a pathogen if that pathogen reminds it of a bug. it encountered in the past, say, because it has similar spite proteins. all corona viruses have spikes. theoretically, at least, that means that teaching your immune system to recognise, sorry, cubby tooth by proteins, could maybe also help it recognise and prevent infection with other corona viruses . if the spikes are similar enough. among others, a study published last month by researchers at johns hopkins university in the us shows that the idea isn't far fetched. the researchers looked at the response of what are called t saddles, which, which play an important defensive role in immune system response. and the study reported that after people were given the vaccine against over 19, their

t cells also responded powerfully to a related corona, virus that causes colds. the assumption is that cross reactivity was providing some protection. there's still much to learn, but a lot of experts thing to work, being done in the fight against stars covey to will lead to a real revolution and how we address future corona, virus threats. some even believe we're not far from developing one shot vaccines that will work against a wide range of corona viruses. lots of attempts to make one are already in animal testing. in now who says bank holidays are a waste of time in the united kingdom. any one away, 800 could get a shot on monday, waiting in the some 1000 spent this bond call a day to get vaccinated against co, with 19. well, not much distance keeping

a new trend, perhaps. that's all for this edition of covey. $900.00 special thanks. for watching, stay safe. who's who's the, the the, the,
