and it makes unpleasant, we always decided to question a leading official who's trying to protect william me out of it since commission human rights to what is suspect conflict in 60 minutes on dw the vaccines at turning the tide in the pants amec in europe and the us attention is turned from adults, 2 children. some said they should get the jap, that shouldn't a limited supply effect seems go to people in poor countries. after all, kids rarely develops, of the cases of covered some parents, a voice safety concerns, pharmacy and say the shots are safe for mine. it's time to vaccinate the young,

the i'm bent as all and welcome. before we tackle that question without 2 guests today, let's take a closer look at the numbers to get a better grasp of just how dangerous cove it is for kids. there are 14000000 miners living here in germany since march last year of a one and a half 1000 children and adolescents were hospitalized due to the corona vice. about $350.00 of those developed and inflammatory secondary disease of the infection called pim syndrome for children, died from covert. and let's just compare those numbers with influenza in the 280900 flu season, about 7 and a half 1000 kids under the age of 14. well, hospitalized 9 died to explain those numbers. let's talk to julian tongue. he's a console there. ologist, an honory associate professor at the university of lester young. dutch is the president of the german society for child and adolescent medicine. thanks to both

of you for joining us today. let's stop with you. you and the standing committee on back the nation in germany have concerns about backdating children against koby to what are those concerns? well, it's not so much of metal concerns with regards to the explanation. it's rather of putting things into context and of comparing potential side effects and the effects of depend i make on children such. and as you pointed out, initially, already, we only have very minor pandemic on children with regards to health and still we don't know what are the long term consequences of that explanation. and therefore, we educate that church when interest should be expedited, and that the children who are living with who are at risk should be expedited as well as long as the cannot be vaccinated themselves. and finally,

in all the other children and young lessons, there should be an individual decision making process which they are cheap. what they are pediatrician to find out whether they are actually willing to accept the vaccination and whether they are aware of potential side effects and how they think about it. okay, you, so you're worried about the long term effects of this pandemic on the you know, the effects of the virus or the vaccine. but what happens if it takes so much longer to vaccinate all out at old, our main concern within the population? because you vaccinating children at the same time or we haven't vaccinated all the adults. doesn't that mean we're going to be in lockdown a lot longer and have even longer term effects the kids? well, i don't actually think so. first of all, the alternatives to explanation in children. we have well,

the template testing facilitates in germany these days. plus we have, we know a lot about hygiene roles and we know about a lot about making qu, faith, so explanation, this solution to children. in particular, if you consider that only a minot, minority of children can be vaccinated, we're only talking about those between 12 and 15 at the moment. so at the end of the day, it can also considering that much more prone to in detecting somebody else. and to transferring the virus to another person, it may be wise to, to ex and nate adults, especially adults who are in the field of education, to make sure they don't transmit the virus to a church and you in your less concerned. why is that? can you explain that to us?

yes, i don't disagree with what's just been said. i think that's a very reasonable approach. my concern is that the vaccines generally for children, is fewer suspects of rule compared to idols, the more efficacious. and we also a lot of otherwise healthy children getting longer with symptoms about 5 percent of them in the u. k. now, so it may be the experience of the bars in different countries is different, especially since germans controlled the virus. so well compared to the u. k where it's basically uncontrolled. so the actual chase names of the higher that that's what been higher and the risk of complications has been high because you can see the very poor control virus in the community anyway. so i think the context is different and the u. k hunting, rolling out the primary school. when's vaccination program many years now? less to where i work, where i am and moment as one of the status of that and also in austria

in the u. s. now i've also instituted this private school vaccination program at the time, pete, it took the children from severe disease, but also the adults have contact with as well. so that kind of overlaps a bit with what the previous speaker has been saying, but the u. k. approach from the u. s. approach is more wide and you want to vaccinate the healthy children as well with healthy idols, which are those children guessing, among the complications that we are seeing as far as sort of children. how dangerous is the weight for kids? while adults, why not forget the jap 1st? i mean those are still the priority. so i think we don't disagree of the i think the rest of the policy because we see more complications in them. and they do seem to transmit more frequently. but shouldn't do transmit inside us shit. high dollars, which is the same as adults. and if you don't detect the transmission because often

more infected adults also it may be a lack of payment rather than a true matic. not infectious type of infection. if we know for the rest of ours, that's including which ones are children of really major effect is a reservoir of the roof irises and hoping to decades, you know, with powerful ours the i've never seen the revised as well as the ones are. so the current of us is running viruses from come code are really no different in that respect. we know from young children and parents experience that children the 1st year of life use a lot of kids in and that's also all the time with creep from the light is because of this kind of non immune infection with the seasonal spirit viruses. what about the u. s. strategy the julian way, where children are already getting fascinated, possibly crossing a line at the expense of battles. yeah, so there's literally political,

it's about this sometimes earlier. and there is a interesting ethical dilemma here, whether you vaccinate children, to protect the pedals more than the children themselves. this is a, this is a good way to go around around. so when you have long have it in, children, was term debilitating, giving several case reports in the case, certainly with children can't remember what the doing can't get out. bad can't walk, can't be used to suck, can be quite debilitating. the child themselves. but then also the sped 2 adults and i was supposed to get located at move, moving children to instead of the can get located with collecting life changing illness. and that's also a reason to vaccinate. i think children in a more rapid manner. the last thing that i fully do with, i'm just saying that to be the rational. so why they're doing it, what you can maybe following suit. you can i ask you another question. the pfizer by and tech faxing was tested on just over

a 1000 children and adolescents in some scientists to saying that far too few participants to detect rest side effects. that's right. i mean that's, that's actually the solution we made with. well, the nation problem, for instance, the seneca shop a, they didn't pale and so to speak, their initial studies. but we, we only heard about the long term consequences and the side effects such as term bosis in the arteries being conveyed to it after after a while after so many patients have been connected. so at the end of the day it will be safe for many families to decide upon vaccination or not having a vaccination after they've seen the that the courses on, on

a large scale. certainly that's, that's that, that might be a reassuring point for many people. okay, great to get your take on that. you're the president of the german society for child and adolescent medicine and consult they're all just from the university of lr julian tang. thanks to both of you. thank you very much. that's part of the show where you get to ask the questions is assigned, corresponded derek williams. paul, if you have 19 without knowing it and get it back, seem to be as vers side effects. oh, the short answer to this is pretty clearly. no, but the question has a couple of layers that need peeling back health care authority. recommendations focus mostly on whether or not people who have the disease and for covered whether

they can be safely vaccinated afterwards. and the answer to that is they can and they should be but authority recommendations are a lot more fuzzy when it comes to people who might have an active preceptor matic or a symptomatic infection at the moment that they get a shot. however, i did track down opinions from a number of experts on the topic and pretty much all of them thought it shouldn't make a difference in terms of symptoms so. so they believed it wouldn't cause adverse effects. however, some also thought it might possibly have an impact either positive or negative on the speed and the strength of your immune response to the vaccine. if you've been exposed, don't get vaccinated and tell your quarantine if you have been infected and are a symptomatic or pre symptomatic. even if the vaccine doesn't pose

a threat to you there's, there's still a problem which is that view still pose a potential threat to the health workers who would vaccinate you so to protect them . wait for a couple of weeks to make sure that you're in the clear me . they say fancy, you again say ah, oh, several good and wide wayne industry, mr. progress. and again, well, be a couple late in burned in south africa. people with disabilities more likely to lose their jobs in the black lives matter. profess shine a spotlight on racially motivated police might think marriage is being legalized in more and more countries, discrimination, inequality, or part of everyday life. for many why? because life diversity make up your own mind.

the b. w. need for mines, young rock and immigrants. they know the police will stop them. they knew that the route is not a solution. they know their flight could be going back. he's not an option. peace ma, i'm on and the other day are stuck in the spanish border area. alongside of other young people there waiting for a chance that will probably never come. shattered dreams starts june 18th, on d. w. every journey begins with the 1st step and every language. the 1st word. niko is in germany. germany.

why not learn with him? it's simple online, on your mobile and free t w e learning course, nikos vague. german made easy. the, the time now for arts and culture and coming up, no mission is impossible for clay nation sensation as will take a look behind the high speed scenes at the filmmakers, paris studio. and the wonders of nature. german filmmaker, yon huffed homes in on his home country in breathtaking time with oh, come to arts and culture focusing this time on film and photography. and we'll

start with photos taken somewhere that's generally the opposite of glamorous teenagers bedrooms. but beyond the piles of smelly socks and the slamming doors, kids rooms are so much more. they can also be a safe haven or more recently a quarantine. so german photographers, fairly and pizza, went on a mission to capture these important spaces and their inhabitants. a young person's most intimate space is their bedroom. it's a kind of transition zone between childhood and the adult world. everything happens here and not only in pandemic times, and it's a place that's off limits. most people, especially someone with a camera, but photographers, feely and pepito were granted access to take portraits of kids in their rooms in different countries. the result is the project in my room. the things i taught it started in 2019 with 2 or 3 kids in cologne. we asked them about

their situations at home, their family and their room. how may i go into some of i have a and then in late 2019 we were in asia and the situation with hope 19 was starting to escalate and we saw that it was spreading on yes. and then we took photos of children and singapore in their bedroom, thought can that and thing are poor for golf yet. and the answer month in, in large format, prince like pop star posters, feely and peter present the young people in their rooms. these forgotten heroes of the pandemic. ah, ah, when i was, for instance, the fashion photography do, portrays fanny from cologne as a princess in the bedroom, she has all to herself, even the time that a lot of kids have to share their rooms with their siblings. but i'm an only child, so i had a space just for me over this past year. and i would it's

a place of your own that you can withdraw to where you spend most of your time. of course i can see that where you have a lot of experiences for the very 1st time on. and when i think about that and reflect on everything that's happened there. and i think it is a pretty cool place to be reminded a bit of your own use. of course. how was it back then? are things very different now? i don't think much has changed. i recognized myself in these room, although they were a busy, heidi or someone will be the best or little volatile type. and unlike in the past, these rooms are connected to the outside world via the internet. still even children with the most privileged backgrounds are at risk of getting lost in the long lockdown. them as in the snacks, all these headlines lamenting what children and teenagers are dealing with stuck at home all the time. but it could have been possible to better support children from

poor families. you know, everyone has the same opportunity and isn't behind hard on her mission to live with their carefully stage portraits, feely, and peter want to give kids a platform nice, challenging time. and they want to show that the pandemic crisis made this generation strong. with a girl named julia told us that she very consciously spent new year's eve alone. she leaped candles and danced on her own hands and said, it was a wonderful experience. and i think it's great that kids have created new ways of dealing with life. and these pandemic tire size in my room documents a generation of young people who've perhaps learned not so much at school during this time, but a great deal for life and about themselves. animator, victoria age, allow also spends a lot of time in a small space. the stop motion,

films, and loops he create in his studio, have gone all over the world. you might know him from his instagram profile paragraph where his followers, number, in the hundreds of thousands. this is american actor leonardo dicaprio in a way. you've never seen him before in stop motion, animation action. this is the work of french director victor agilent, who makes animation films and ads in his paris studio. i really like stop motion animation because it's something very tangible you can, you can touch it. you really feel what you are doing. i mean with, with your hand pictures and creating stop motion animation for 13 years. he taught himself how to do it after studying film in the capital product. you put that in the position. you make this movement, you take a picture, you make it as

a movement, you take a picture and so on to try to redo the original movie you have in mind this 5 2nd clip took 2 hours to make his animations cover a wide range of themes. including this film featuring a 3 d superhero. ah, other clips are simple loops made for fun, for instagram. ah, this animation highlights actor tom cruises, sons from his moving mission impossible. the artist earned his money with animated ads for big international companies. the victor trying to find a sense of humour in his everyday surroundings. this is where he gathers ideas. the

challenge lies in bringing the ideas back to the studio and turning them into many works of art. the finished product isn't always what he expects. sometimes i didn't notice i did some move of some as a move, and after this time i kept surprising myself. and victor continues to surprise his fans as well with his unique and unusual classic form of animated photography. the. we're heading outdoors now into the german countryside, which for documentary filmmaker young huffed as a world in and of itself. every pedal, every when you beat fascinates him now with a new book and a new film have just hoping to share his fascination, especially with their germans, who often travel outside their own country to experience nature. spectacular nature images from germany.

the probably me finding something positive in the pandemic is almost cynical job and it's, but of course, the fact that we all had to stay home means we now value the nature that surround or homes or villages and towns even more because we've spent more time here than usual, for instance, many germans have come to appreciate germany's north sea coast over the past year. thanks to title activity. it's one of the most bio diverse habitats in the world with about 10000 species of animals and plants. nature filmmaker young hoss, has filmed the migratory birds that visit the mud flaps by the millions. says nature in germany has great diversity and a wide variety of habitats. his cinematic journey took him all over the country, which he describes in his book. it's titled high much the tour using a german term, meaning home or homeland. a word not everyone feels comfortable with because it's

been misused by far right. nationalists, refund the money for most of us. the word hi, my triggers. a pleasure and cozy feeling. so we shouldn't just give it up to the wrong groups who appropriate it for themselves. when i use the word high, i want to draw in those who simply want to experience a positive feeling with their homeland and put the proven, you know, leave live in northern germany, the epitome of homeland nature is the, he's a natural paradise. that's actually, ma'am, made here. everything is interconnected. the smallest animals benefit from the dunk, the big ones. the insect develop a new drug, things flexible, had it done, beetle flowers, sophisticated strategy due to a lack of nutrients. it doesn't produce nectar. instead,

learning pollinators with just color and shape, the bumblebee falls for the deception. it doesn't find food, but helps the flour by taking pollen with it. young half is passionate about making nature films. his protagonists are animals and plants that are native to germany. and he highly, it's just how special they are. by using time lapse and extreme slow motion techniques, he makes both slow and fast processes visible to the human eye. oh, come for, i'm still driven by a curiosity about nature and a child like joy. i don't need to go looking for rarities or peculiarities. i'm fascinated by the connections between the species. and you can observe that anywhere, even in the smallest package of nature, you can almost do it on a balcony with a few of them by come. for his films, young husk sometimes sits in a camouflaged hunter's blind for days. but his brain are rare and beautiful. images

of those who knows we have earth worms in our country that grow over half a meter long and listens bruce forest floors in the black forest eating spruce needles and big who's the biggest earth warm in europe? the who knows that we have square earth worms that live under water on the bottom of streams and rivers in lake from z. my, my favorite earth warm as of course, the green earth, one warm we encountered a clinics, a lake and film day. but native nature which also feeds us is threatened resources are limited and the habitat for animals and plants is endangered. young huffed sees it as his task to draw attention to that over shot the mark. and we're only slowly realizing that because when we leave our house visits, green smells good, is flushed and beautiful. and you can hear birds singing because it showed him. and it's not so easy to see that there are significantly fewer birds. and that the bird

songs are more monotonous, because individuals from the orchestra of individual soloists from the bird world are now missing from the field. that's the case with almost all species. and it's something we need to be aware of. and we need to sort out our social order and get to a point where hopefully we live more sustainably in this country. rubia helped me not to go here long. oh yon her work is a plea to not always go far afield to see nature quite spectacular. things happen in germany to even on a small scale. oh and we're expecting more spectacular things of the 70th berlin international film festival. kicking off this week. more on that and the next arts and culture for now, here's a little appetizer, some red carpet highlights from the last 70 years season. me
