that was, that was another shock and still also had diarrhea. she hadn't seen her brother for a long time and found out that he was living under the bridge. high diary decided to take action. she wanted to help her brother and many other addicts, and caboodle almost every one in the city of 4 and a half 1000000. know someone whose life has been destroyed by drugs rehabilitation center is located in western could boil, is dead. her son was once in eric himself for 30 years. he suffered from harrison dependency. but with high diaries help, he managed to kick the habit. now he manages the center in her absence. meet is not an addict. he has been here ever since high diary found him as a young child in a garbage can on the side of the street, most likely abandoned by his family. push to do both patients stay here for about 4 weeks. there is

a lack of closely medicines to their withdrawal symptoms, so patients usually have to make due with cold showers. well, they also have a lot of talks and music sessions. the high diary also has in mind the time after the rehab, she also runs the restaurant, taj, big room. all employees are recovered addicts, the world helps them lead drug free lives and brings new perspectives. mohammad hussein is one of those who manage to turn his life around stuff. this is a special place for after it's done so we can feel pretty safe here. i'm very happy to work in this place because here in the restaurant is just different. almost like a family, there was a strong on the on the, on the some take of 10 to the venue. the restaurant received threats from

extremists also because it is run by women. hi diary has managed to build what she said out to build. but the situation in afghanistan is unstable. it was crawl of international troops is underway and should be complete within the next few weeks with her. but when her phone i've got on her, i'm pretty pessimistic about just gone to the future. it seems totally really co cheeky as my the only one who can look to what's the future of the taliban that at that are radical muslims. that devil? no, not danny women was and d as the mommy lane and the future is uncertain, but at least for now layla hi diary knows what she is going to do. so part those with the drug addiction and couple for as long as possible. tough. some more news headlines in brief, hundreds of indigenous people are protesting a controversial land reform bill outside brazil congress. the proposed legislation

news the the the ah, the finally teaching take the trip again. ah, my normal 9 days is doing his 99 pilgrimage on the way of saint james. during the corolla virus pandemic, the root was close to thousands of pillars. the now minority has rediscovered his why do these? because the way of st. james is a journey, not a destination. focus on europe. 60 minutes on dw,

i was able to say matters to us in that's why we listen to their stories. reporter every weekend on dw ah, how it takes me into feels jewish life in europe. oh, that's what film producer and his phone and journalist kogan man, and more exploring, building into history and the present. i would never do. it can be live so openly and so freely constantly and to remind

myself because i grew up in a completely different way to fraud. it's for the jewish in years. the 2 part documentary starts july 5th on d w. ah, you're watching the w news asia coming up today. what happened to taiwan once, a paragon of how to tackle the pandemic. it now faces covert terrace. with most of the population, unvaccinated and living under locked down, we take a closer look. and in indonesia which resources is more precious chin or fish, that depends on who you ask as miners and fishers based off plus preserving pakistan's peacock how concert conservation is managed to save the 1st one spacing population decline. the

news i melissa chant, thanks for joining us. time one, why is such a success story throughout the 1st year of the kobe pandemic? at the start of 2021, you could count the total number of deaths on your hands, and then things went sideways. the country of 23000000 has seen a spike this summer with more than 14000 cases. and based on the latest information on thursday, 599 deaths, less than 7 percent of people have had their 1st vaccine injection, which means hardly any one is fully vaccinated. d, w is when you li has more roaming in and out every day. 39 year old mister jim deliver 300 orders a week. the reason cove it outbreak in taiwan house brought him more orders, but he had to take more risk things over 90 percent of the population. my can have

a think about the needed little this. i know i live with my 5 children, my wife and my mother. you asked me if i'm worried about them. of course i am. i had so many children and i worry that i might get them infected plea to lose johnny . bravo. the father of 5, he have no choice but to go out and make money. so i hope the government can offer food delivery drivers, vaccines as soon as possible. but you know, we're in contact with so many people. dozens, if not hundreds, every day by many are still waiting. while the vaccination program for abilene started rolling last week back things that taiwan has received to date can only cover one 5th up as 23500000 people were getting emails. there isn't enough vaccines. the portal, you know, we have an vaccines, can we do math explanation?

that's the 1st layer protection for all of the people that something that tie 16 have continued the virus and the insistence on developing domestic vaccines. my have delayed is faxing acquisition strategy, and it was our mis judgment on last year. not being able to for seeing that there will be such of actually shortage. and we might have being a bit too confident about what we could do in terms of our own. don't actually develop their back c, l, e, z one. how one is faxing company has finally reviewed its phase 2 clinical trials this month and has apply for taiwan. emergency use authorization. it could be taiwan hope, whether it's applications or not. still remains the open question, but at least there's sufficient scientific

data to think it might be efficacious in such regards. it just to have it approved in case of need to so we can use it. while the pony is fasting, you're still waiting for authorization. the government is trying as fast to secure more overseas jap, so that people like mister chang, will no longer need to worry that they and their families could get infected. joining us as dw when he li and ty pay, who filed that report when he, let's talk about this domestic vaccine and trials. how events and robust is highlands farm industry? i mean, we hear about the big players in europe in the u. s. and generic production in india, but taiwan. does it even have a reputation for cutting edge medical r n d? so actually it's high. why now have 2 companies developing domestic koby nightenback things one is mentioned in the report. another one is nike bio medical

. these 2 companies are relatively small, but companies like manage and you have some experience working with leading organization such as us national institute house, for example, at how thing go developing vaccine against gay. and oh, so it's just now a successful re child for the inter virus last week. so this time, this company method manager is developing the go back thing also with in cooperation with us national institute of house space to trial data looks really good. the expert safe, however, is how protective it is still needs to be examined. now, given tie one strategy to bed on a domestic farmer producer, as well as getting too comfortable with its cobit free status. are people demanding

accountability from the government? so yes, 2 people here in high want to criticize the tony government for not getting enough vaccines from overseas things. that's how why, why, why is developing its own coming? i think back thing. we still haven't gotten things from overseas as well, but if we look back in march or april, now was actually a modem out of the come back thing coming again and it's oh, it was open for public to get the native for people who were willing to pay for themselves how ever during that time we all knew that there was actually no co been almost no coby hearing. i wonder and people feel the urgency and also didn't feel the pressure to get vaccinated. some people even feel that as them come back. thing

was not protected enough and they were rather way for modern vaccine or 5 or vaccine. so that is why we cannot only live for the government here in taiwan people. oh, so how's the entire atmosphere here that there was no urge and people and the government back then also told, told the public that pie one had time to wait when he lee. thank you so much for joining us. thank you. the whole to industries are clashing around an island in indonesia where lucrative tin mines have moved off shore, threatening the areas rich fishing grounds activists are trying to stop the mines, moving out to sea. but in a place where a good paying work is hard to find, the mines have their supporters as well. a cluster of boats like an offshore

village. but this is a mining operation. the work is the board. these pontoons, dredging, the ocean floor in search of tin indonesia, the world's number one exporter. but for many, it's now too tough to find 10 assure and they will find something that's getting harder to mind turned on land. so i have to mine it, see, but there are no more tin resources left on the land that you will each point. so uses the pipe to suck up saying from the sea bed. it's then sifted to trap the glittery black granules of 10 or but local fishermen say they catch and their livelihoods a suffering because of the mining. they say it's destroying the underwater fish habitat and polluting that once prestige waters. and done by young coming to mind

is impact on us is incredible. what you can tell by our shrinking catch. we used to get 10 kilograms a day, now only to kilograms at all. so got it all while while most fishermen sympathetic to the minus flight, they still demand an end to the activities. but i got some of my we know those miners of fighting for their lives and we appreciate that. but what they're doing is wrong that i fell off. years of lands mining has ravaged many of indonesia islands living craters and highly acidic lakes behind. but despite the damage and the difficulties, the rising price of 10 is even bringing many people back to the business. somebody on any of my motto is as long as they're mining, there's hope because this place is heaven. as long as sand exists, 10 will always be the one. and if international demand for 10

remains high, indonesia will likely have plenty of mine is out at sea. and on land in a remote and dry corner of pakistan near the indian border, a wildlife sanctuary has protected a complex ecosystem for migratory war birds. it's a place for swimming goes to storks, to pelicans live and it's where conservation is. have made special efforts to save one rare boom of a bird. the splendor as display of the indian blue peacock fanning out his feathers, trying to attract the attention of some nearby heads up. the striking birds live in the wild in just a few remaining places. and this is one of them. the rent of coach was love century in pakistan's remote for pucca region. but deforestation, and recurring drought threatened even this last habitat.

already said the young margaret, go to the coaches, the birds will try to leave when they don't find enough water near the to migrate to find the loss and many on table to return my company up us to see what those a major crisis here should be. the boat on gosh gotta be it. but now the p fell coming back. thanks to the efforts of wildlife conservationists who provide water for the birds all year round. bunny, joanna, we bring tank is full of water for me. see. and we distribute the water here for these birds funding up in we're trying to return this place to the p files natural habitat. so we can keep them here. local. they're also playing a part in ensuring the p f. l survival as new villages and hamlets encroach onto

the century. they've also increased the inviolable food and water. yes, hi. there many that i came here 6 years ago and saw these birds in a miserable condition. there's nothing to eat or drink bonnie and i used to live in miffy but left my work there to come here and see these birds. and they're not strong. seasonal rains have also helped the p f l population a decade ago, and it's low point of 200000 birds today. conservation is can barely count them. so if you like, i'm sure we have millions of people. we're protecting them and god willing in the coming years the results will be even better than orbits emilita. so sites like this a clearly on the way back, a success story for peacock conservation in pakistan. that's it for today. we leave you with pictures from tokyo as the city prepares for the summer olympics,

which kicks off and just under a month, it's been a fraud and delay journey. thanks for watching and see you tomorrow. bye. with the news . the fight against the corona virus pandemic. how has the rate of infection in developing? what does the latest research information and contact the corona virus? because the 19 special next on dw, the house of your very own from a printer computer games that are healing my dog

needs electricity. explains, delivers facts and shows what the future whole living and the digital world shifts on dw me the could be the difference between life and death. between a life fever or a stay in intensive care. we know that obesity can lead to severe cobit 19 complications. askin high blood pressure or diabetes. so is our diet, our destiny? could eating few animals and more plants be the solution? when you study suggests it could come down to survival of the vegetarians.

and what kind of could be $900.00 special? i'm monica jones and i am a vegetarian it's true. been one for more than 30 years, even though my family then insisted that it's important to each need a common notion in those days. so now there is a study that says vegetarians could be in better shape to deal with a co, with 90 infection. let's find out why. the idea that diet has a role in preventing disease has been around for decades. i've has the dictum to eat a range of foods, including fruit and vegetables. today, the outcome of a covey 19 infection appears to be the latest in a string of ways in which vegetarians may fare better. in terms of health. recent us study published one of the british medical journals publications looked at how being predominant, the vegetarian impacted the severity of a covert infection. people who mostly followed

a plant based diet with found to be 73 percent less likely to develop a moderate to severe case of cove. it if they did get infected tough compared to those who ate the high protein, low carbohydrate diet. it's sort of embedded in a huge discussion of how the help the big problem has. how do we find this out? and this is a interesting study because they use a population which is likely to, to be effective as co it. and i'd like to, to expose to cope with that. that is really interesting. the participants in the study were from line health care workers in france, germany, italy, spain, the u. s. and the u. k. more than 2000 doctors nurses was to record what they ate, whether or not they got cove it. and if they did, how low and severe their illness was. those who follow predominantly, plant based diet,

were much less likely to get seriously if they became infected. even when age an exercise, habits were taken into account, what we eat also reflects who we are more broadly. in western countries, vegetarians are also more likely to be well educated, health, conscious, and female. these factors all have a bearing on the outcome of a covert infection from minor crucial point of view. it's always, i think it's worrying about nutrition is generally not a good idea. it's, it's, in most cases the diet is fine. if you sort of get it from a balanced and go to one extreme or the other, i think that there is to push people into eating disorders is, is often versed and in the benefit form could the, for years that's been a debate about the relationship between lifestyle choices and disease. privet is just the latest reason to do so. and it shows that a healthy diet doesn't necessarily protect against disease,

but it can support immunity. for more, i'm joint bashing crookshank. she's professor off a bio medical sciences, and an immunology is the university of manchester, a very good to have you with us. and going by this report, i suspect that you are a budgetary and perhaps a beacon actually, no, i am no carrying or v can. i do re a predominant lay plan base diet. so, but i do enjoy confessions mates as well. okay, so it's not all that bad but died related health issues. they suddenly have been quickly recognized as a huge risk factor. what exactly happens to our immune system when our diet is not healthy? well, it's not really surprising that diet has an impact on our need system. because if you think about the ability to find confection on the ability to get nutrition from

the face that we are really fundamental for lice is a very, very intertwined. and we know that a very typical western diet, it's high and low in vegetables, can call something called met, inflammation. this is where you are, you get to balance, and you have a kind of a low level inflammation, which surprisingly makes you less able to deal specifically with infections. so you are more vulnerable to cope it. so it is well known that western style diet is famously unhealthy, lots of sugar sausages, you name it all boosting as you just said, our inflammatory levels, which is bad for our immune system. but why then, has cobit 19 caused such havoc, income trees like india, where a vegetarian diet is so much more widespread? well, you've got to look at all the different factors that come into play there. unfortunately,

we've got a lot of poverty in jail. got a lot of overcrowding, so that means it's very easy for the inspection to spread. you may have people who are malnourished. you may, people who have other infections make from less able to fend off the disease. and we have issues around m, a lack of treatment, resources, oxygen, etc. so there's an infrastructure issue there. so cove, it's not just about how many diets also by looking at the other way you can mitigate your risks. looking at how ventilated your spaces are looking at how much close compacts you've got with people and the pipes that you did right now. if people watching this start to panic and sink, oh my god, i have not been eating healthily. i have to change for last year. british prime minister boys johnson launched and eat healthy campaign as part of the united kingdom fight against the pandemic. how long does it take to have any effect

anything you can report there already? well, i'm not sure how much it having in the u. k. probably. i'm not aware that he's looking at that, but certainly we know the in, in just for the 6 weeks time, you can really see a huge impact on your immune system. print, changing your lifestyle, just bringing it a bit more variety into the food that you eat, looking at how you kind of get your exercising little bit more, not sitting at your computer screen. all say those sorts of things can have a really quick effect. so simple to do that we can all do it. it sounds really easy, but i'm just wondering, is there a one size fits all healthy diet and lifestyle? i think the good, well, the variation cuz some people are more predisposed to conditions than others. however, the very simple that such is looking at the variety in your diet and looking at

just being a little bit more mobile. i'm not talking extreme exercise. looking at you stress levels. these are things that we can all do and the very least they improve are wealthy. now obviously, i mean to, to have a healthy diet to exercise. all of that is fairly much common knowledge and certainly in parts of the world where people can actually afford to have a healthy life style. they still don't all do it. i mean, if this doesn't make us change our habits, what will well, i think that we have actually seen some progress in that and just changing our habits. because we've seen a lot of people now that they were forced to stay in doors. they really salt the times that they could go outside and they've been exploring their neighborhood. they've been trying to find the green areas. there is more curiosity about what we can do to stay healthy. so there is more of an interest in that. so i think

optimistic actually that maybe now we can start to make a difference, but we need education campaigns so that people know what to do, what to eat, and how to get those things that can make them feel better. what did you have for lunch? just to follow you because that's one way. one way to do it. she know she crookshank, the professor of biomedical sciences and immunology. is that much as the university? thank you so much for your time. thank. so if a healthy lifestyle protects us from getting seriously ill, what about some mis healthy habits? time for your questions. now, over to derek bull crew that nicotine protects you from covered $19.00 oh, a little over a year ago. what's called the nicotine offices made headlines when, when

a couple of studies suggested that tobacco's best known, active chemical might help to protect you from getting poet 19. the hypothesis was based on what the researcher said was a disconnect between the number of smokers coming down with the disease and the number of smokers that should have been coming down with a disease. since then, however, there's evidence from other studies that when adjusted for other factors, smokers likely do get cobra 19 as often as non smokers. and what's clear is that when they do get it, it's more likely to take a serious turn that really shouldn't come as much of a surprise, i mean, pandemic, or no. pandemic smoking is just terrible for your health. and at least the groundwork for many of the co morbidities that are associated very clearly with

more severe cove at $900.00 outcomes. there is an interesting aspect to this question. however, that still being pursued, which is what effect nicotine might have when given to people directly, rather than by having them inhaled smoke from from burning tobacco. there are a couple of different studies looking at things like whether for instance, nicotine patches applied to non smoker patients. and hospitals might affect the course of their covert. 19. some researchers think the chemical might interfere with or block the receptor that the virus uses to enter cells. and that it could therefore contribute maybe to a future treatment in some way. but the studies i found looking into questions like that are pretty small scale and they haven't yet released findings. so i wouldn't count on

a really convincing argument for it anytime soon. in derrick williams there and he'll be back tomorrow. of course, that's all from this addition of our cobit $900.00 special. thank you so much for joining us, and to stay healthy. ah, the news? the news. the news, the lose. lose.
