in europe are smashing all the record, the step into the venture. just don't lose your grip. the treasure map for modern globe trotter's. go for some of europe's wykard breaking and also in book form the basically the w as a show coming up today. vaccinations in the midst of a corona about a surge, dinah, and begins about nations as a 3rd wave of infections threatens despite a lot of control. but is it already too late? and does the country have enough vaccines, plus deadly flooding and landslides, post tens of thousands from their homes. and 3 days of rain sent rivers overflowing, turning low line areas into makes. and

the feel of young women showing how heavy metal can be muslim to ah, i better better do welcome to the, to the news asia, glad you could join us. thailand has begun and ambitious vaccination program in the midst of a 3rd wave of nuclear on about us infections. millions of doses of locally produced astrazeneca and imported sign of vaccines are expected to be given this month. the goal is to vaccinate about 70 percent of the countries more than 66000000 people. by the end of the year. so far, only about 2 percent of the population has received at least one shot of the vaccine. and gentlemen, from bangkok is frederick paul from the frederick now montague, nation for freedom. frederick was also until recently, based in the region as

a journalist, a frederick, the government plans to vaccinate 70 percent of the population by the end of the year. but doesn't have enough vaccines. well, that's indeed the big question that many people are asking here has been some delays in the roller campaign of the backs and the weeks and weeks. and it seems that there's kind of a bottleneck of action by on the other side, the government seems stamp adjusted. now an audit additional supplies, not only from the local manufacturer, is any cost that is producing in tolerance, but also from other international companies like madonna for something they also talk to john from johnson. so based on now additional mexicans and the goal is still reachable. i would say, but really difficult. critics have accused the government off a complacency they're saying it should have ordered enough vaccines last year. it's out of do the critics have a point?

i think the government would have audits, and it's quite possible that the best and robot would have been asked and it's a very difficult issue to hear. and you might know that the company that is producing astrazeneca is owned by the king and one very outspoken politicians opposition policy pointed out to that's and yes, been actually huge with the less majesty lot. so there is not a real open debate about it. if that's a decision off the government has been right or not, it's very difficult question here. and and with that in the background, you also have a situation which only about 2 to 3 percent of the population has actually received one shot of actually and why is this vaccination figure? so law i mean you, you shouldn't just tell him so hard if you look at other states,

you're in the region and you see that they also have very, very low rates. and look at the they also haven't vaccinated a lot of people look at the space here in the region. maybe it is because it came here or strike much later than in europe. and us talent had the and i make very well under control. we were on the case this year and it was actually around the countries it managed quite well. but this changed in the last weeks and maybe the government also hope that it's not a big issue here. but now unfortunately, we have another way which is much stronger than the way before, and that's the risk that this gets out of control. so the issue became much more pressing. and it looked a couple of weeks ago. have briefly frederick, which areas in thailand was tit backup. it's really much attacked

and also the surrounding areas of bangkok. so we have here in buck runs 1000 cases, new infections every day. the whole has about 2001 big cluster of the presence here. and so we have presents here that have around 50 percent or prison as effects are inspected. some even more. and this is indeed a huge problem. government fixed for a bank off. thank you so much for that industry longer at least 16 people are dead and more than 250000 homeless. after heavy rains battered large parts of the country. some 10 of 25 districts in the country have been effected by flooding and mudslides. many people have also been left without power in this national disaster that has seen troops deployed as rescue personnel in several areas. the roads have been turned into rivers in many parts of south western through lanka.

the disaster comes after days of monsoon, rains and heavy rainfall last month. the result has been devastating for many thousands of people. don't let me and my daughter 2 days ago, it has affected people in this entire area, some sort of refuge and relief county. i will be along the nano boxes i got. the armed forces have been called in to help coming out food and other essential suppliers. the navy has also been rescuing people stranded in remote villages. with the vast areas, inundated thousands have been driven from their homes and into shelters. more than 100000 buildings are without power. more than 800 homes have been

destroyed. relief agencies say many sources of drinking water have been contaminated because septic tanks have overflowed into rivers. and that's a huge, clean up operation will be needed. shillinger is hit by the monsoon, twice a year. it brings rain vital for irrigation and power generation. but it also damages property and cause of loss of life. of course you say the rains are beginning to ease and that water levels appear to be receding. but landslide warnings are still in place. in many districts, the in neighboring in this region, years of conflict have further worse than a drug addiction problem. the regions main addiction treatment hospital alone registered a 945 percent increase in cases in just the 3 years between 2016

and 20. 19. most of those affected people in the 17 to 50 years, age group, constant security lock downs, fears of torture, and porch on top of employment. a seen as the prime drivers of drug addiction for on a bart is just 20 years old and she's a drug addict. she lives in kashmir and northern india, where a border conflict has been smoldering for years. when a friend of hers was tortured and murdered right in front of her. a few years ago, she was traumatized. he said to submit a rule something close by it. you could just leave your mind get out of this being. so i started this all this from cody and pain, all that. and this was the beginning of when i became thousands of young people in kashmir, just like for on the spiral begins taking simple pain relievers,

but then increasingly merged into stronger drugs. i started taking a high end of drugs here doing after that this just and gotcha and wanda and all that, all i've been and even, i don't know, many of the drugs i just wanted to relieve might be the situation in kashmir has been tense for decades. pakistan, india and china old fighting over territorial claims. the kashmiris who live here are the ones who suffer any kind of work for a youth initiative. she understands the hopelessness of many which for her also stems from the kashmir conflict. lincoln, us, the all schools are posing us through the goals, so there is no walk for all students because internet service is not available for them. so that may lead to a stress and then that will probably get there. and now some rehabilitation

clinics in the region funded by the government, physicians like dr. was off a con, one to help young people escape their addiction, but their needs overwhelm what his facility can provide. just know i was evaluating my vision and he was reporting me that he has last night off his friends and their their died in last one year because of that word doors because of other things. and if we lose our young people in the say, definitely it is very painful. the clinic has been advising for on for a good 2 months. she realized here that her current path could lead to an early death. well, the girl that wanted to do that was that want to do that. so idea is, is that i gave a self and then the system, the end part that i need are medical treatment. i need a counseling, a proper guidance. 5, i could come out of this for on i have not touched any drugs for 2 months

now. in the midst of all the troubles in kashmir, there is still hope o rock group in indonesia is challenging stereotypes, not just about women, but also about islam. the band known as b o b is specialize in cash metal. they're already well known in their home country, but their dream is to break into the international market. the head banging in a he jap. ah, there's nothing unusual about that for this band in jakarta. b o, b o noise, the voice in english have been together since the early teens. this is their 2800 single school revolution blasting indonesia tricks education system

that i need. the one thing you go to using like a diary to me and the other girls. it's a place for us to be high and share happiness with other people. and then the money come, get it to go, buy, know what? i'm like. the band formed in a small town and west job a providence in 2014. but recently they began to attract international attention. they receive prey from the likes of the guitar is from rage against the machine. and the former basis of nevada. the hope is that they'll be able to collaborate with other american bands and play california coachella and other festival. the, the right to the talk is not always mean easy. the village they grew up in. it's very conservative and their parents initially had all the plans for them. mamma can come in our village girls playing metal music is uncommon. how many girls that our age already married are engaged?

but we tried to gain trust from our parents by performing on tv stations out among other things on the web. and then the, the tree. they managed to win over their families, showing them, and that they can be both muslim women and members of a successful heavy metal bands as already there's more and our website. we'll see you here tomorrow, but ah, the fight against the corona virus pandemic. how has the rate of infection been developing? what does the latest research say? information and context? corona virus on the 19th, special next on dw future wars w's. richard walker explores the evolution of digital warfare,

making military law more efficient and deadly decisions. those algorithms survive. interest scenarios. absolutely no. future wars starts june 10th, w. the children may seem well equipped to deal with cove at 19. but the pandemic is leaving, it's mark school closures and isolation from friends are bad enough, but some kids are forced to face the pandemic alone. research shows over a 1000000 children have lost at least one caregiver during the crisis, robbing them of critical support, and exposing them to poverty and abuse. me i'm

painful and nice to have you. on the pandemic has put some kids in an extremely risky situation. as you'll see in our report in a moment, india's emerging from a deadly wave of infections. it's claimed tens of thousands of lives and created a broken generation children and teens orphans and exposed to not only emotional trauma, but exploitation for 9 years now, the people that had worked with children from under previous communities on a daily basis. she deals with children who have experienced creek laws and are forced to grow up before they're ready. but since the outbreak of who with 19 their numbers are growing, children are being made to quit education and take up household responsibilities and are also being pushed into child labor as their families have lost income. secondly, since they are spending a lot of time at their home, now many cases of child abuse are also coming up. having already been

disproportionately affected by over 19, many children are facing another tragic fall out of the found on it. many have lots mothers or fathers are both leading them extremely one of the since last year the angel, a pretty work has provided support to 13 children who have been offered you to call the one team by helping them settling with their extended families. so no opposing the founder of the organization says that while children who have been often how much tougher and need immediate attention, a more holistic approach is needed to address every child in distress. there's a lot of conversation about it often, but honestly, on the ground it's such cases are probably 5 to 6 percent. the other 95 percent cases that we're looking at is where the bed, the very best of these children are pushing them into sexual trade. transactional effects and child labor, the real issue to these to look at the vulnerability mapping of which child is in

massive distress and which side needs more support that there is a need for a more comprehensive approach is something that an iraq can do. probably the head of the daily commission for protection of child. right. also, i'm looking for something for 3 things need to happen. one, these schemes that provide the financial assistance to these families so that at least the basic subsistence is insured. the 2nd thing that needs to happen is the government have to explore ways of keeping the children in school, the toward either ensuring a livelihood for the family. what ensuring that there you start in different existing schemes of the government could be a russian or whatever. but ensuring the, the family has adequate means as an immediate urgency that the commission has started a health line for children in distress. back at the center pre p says that many children she meets with are in crisis right now. we've got a home because of it years of hard work that we and the children had put in seemed

to have gone waste or home. we are now trying to get them back to their studies and 2 different activities. we are trying to heal them and had them come out of the difficult situations. they will still briefly says that despite their best efforts, it will be a long while before the children are able to cope with the heart. and the trauma that the band make has inflicted the rain sure is a clinical psychologist and works closely with national and international agencies . she joins us from london in india, they're talking about a broken generation. are we seeing this elsewhere? absolutely, it is occurring elsewhere. but your question is always seeing as and i think people are focusing much today. detriment. so for every adult who comes to covert, you would have often heard for their children and even fall grandparents, where it would cost us an older generations. you have cameras and caring grants,

parents for children dramatically. and we need to show from alan's to them. and just what sort of magnitude are we talking about in some parts of the world? well, it's high, we have a paper coming out from the launch, which is a couple of weeks that tries to create a model to quantify it. but it's related to the for tennessee weights, the size of families and the burden of codes. and that kind of pushing we are seeing figures will probably be in excess of the auto 1000000 children and growing and growing. we know in countries with hydrogen to more to fix it and very often gravitates to low income countries. so looking at countries like india, as he said, south africa when it's true coffee usa, i'm across new k in brazil. many, many countries across the conference is

a global phenomenon. while another concern is the public seen often inches, clothes and children sent back to their communities. what, what happens then? well, it's a complicated story because we know that often digital probably not going places for 5. we noticed before the panoramic and sadly amongst the h harvey, academic, we saw him mushroom, where we do have very good evidence. the family care is best for children. so we, we are looking at programs to close or from the job and to the families. for example, and gander, this an excellent program and in wonder but the plant closure is very interesting issue. so we could jump now and support the families we. we, complet children go unsupported with no resources. and maybe some of the policies on child care and child care in the supplemental rocks,

absence of adult care needs to be bought and focus with resources we, we, we shouldn't forget that this is a cause of casualty. as well. lorraine, have we learned anything from other pandemic? absolutely. so in a boda and in, in h r v, an 8, we saw the mushrooming of children and a huge phone ability. we also know that the bulb and extends lifelong. so once you've lost a parent or a child experience, often hood, we know that it matters to dyess. if it's a grandparent, if a mother, if it's a father and we know the, a multiple life double opening, multiple loss in both really poor you for the child. and we often are the age matters. her younger the child, the more dramatically affects and care responses are crucial for the immediate care

and the ongoing, sustains care and all kinds of disruptions like schooling and will be a need to be tags. if the child again. we also know that if you do pushing vengeance, they work. so we have to be very cautious of poor quality care of it, accessible violence and abuse of such children. and having national and government supported good program and with a short plan from children. a, the rain share their clinical psychologist. she joined us from london. thank you very much for being on the show today. pleasure. time. now for our science correspondence, derek williams, the end of your question about how the buyers with tex young adults. oh, does cooper 191215 minute. oh, oh, there are 2 fence. it's this,

this multifaceted question that i'd like to talk about. the 1st is of course, the straightforward issue of what the virus does physically to an average young adult as compared to someone who's older and they are the statistics. tell a pretty clear story. coded 19 mortality increases dramatically with age. let's look at recent data from the us. more than 4 and 5 deaths there have occurred in those over 65 and fewer than one into 100 reported that had been and people under 30. but as vaccinations rise among the elderly in countries like the u. s. doctors say that the average age of patients who are being hospitalized with the disease is dropping dramatically and that many of those younger patients will end up with conditions like crippling damage to the lungs or

the heart. so although cove at 19 is a lot less likely to kill a young adult, there are still really pressing reasons to get vaccinated because getting it can have devastating long term health consequences. the 2nd important asset of this question is, is the pandemic, emotional, social, psychological, and economic impact. it's affecting everyone of every age, but is experts say in many ways hitting young adults especially hard and, and that a key time in their lives. there are no warning that due to lock downs and other measures, generation covert is facing shortfalls in opportunities for, for crucial self development. many young people are rising to the challenges but, but psychologists and other therapists in many places like like here in germany are

also currently being overwhelmed by this tidal wave of young adults in need of help. and. and a lot of those professionals now say that even the serious toll taken by infection in today's young adults could in the long run, be overshadowed by the impact covert 19 has on the groups mental health me eric williams there. keep sending any questions just use to argue to channel. finally, some good news for residents of delhi and will by the government is easing lockdown restrictions. there is new infections in india full to a 2 month low shopping centers. reopening with some restrictions in place, public transport is operating again at reduced capacity. restrictions came in april law through india was with most severe corona alp right. the date in india,

one of the worlds was 2 countries with around 29000000 registered cases. despite easing restrictions, authorities are wanting residents against living down infections, maybe falling, but posted related deaths remain at high levels. thanks for watching. stay safe and see you again, sir. ah . the news. the news? the news?
