is this is the job and assume how i see it. and that's why i left my job because i tried to do exactly this every day. my name is adding to and i worked at the w. 2 bases eat up the news, a shot coming up today. the 1st ever drawn attack on an indian base game tempest used to jones to bomb the installation. it's the 1st time jones have been used in terra and india. is it a sign of things to come? and tackle the challenge plus really states to your scene. hesitant. hong kong comes up the innovative ways to incentivize people to take a lot of jobs. and in bundle asian people rush to get out of the capital tucker as

it entered a strict code on a ladder. flock down the i'm british manager. welcome to the w news a show. glad you could join us. and peter officials in india are investigating what has been called the 1st ever joined attack on an indian military base authority said ted risk used to drones to drop explosives on an indian air force base in the northern jump. one region, 2 soldiers were injured and a building slightly damaged in the attack on sunday. police blamed a pocket on back relatives for the attack. and from what i'm joined by journalist and defense analyst either shook lar from a quarter gritty in southern india. the for the 1st time ever a drawn attack on an indian air force base. how concerned that product is

oh, well, no, it's not a sort of a serious military threat. but the simple reason that there's a limit to the size of the drones that you can create, or it will create across the board in the pockets on region of jumbled up. you know that, that the border is just about 15 kilometers from the jump. be very heavily defended both from the bucket some night and from the indian side. and if a larger drone that carry a really damaging payload that will be able to blow up a whole lot of names and so on. if that were to come across, it would be quickly picked up by indian a defend radars and guns and brought down quickly. but jump being very close to the border and the groans being very small. they can quickly sneak across for

a quick attack, or even in the, as in this case, a suicide attack, where they decide to go and go into a building. and you know, to that extent there's a limit on the damage that can be done. so it's not a hugely sort of, it's not a huge matter for concern, but still nobody likes a space. so it will be created for then oh, what about what is that, that you could use a drawn swarms for example. i'm not the 1st time that we've seen a military application of drones. and the new nami is also in the past demonstrated . it's john give me abilities using small drones, but to attack specific targets. is that not what you told for the authorities here, especially if it is and lead to doing this? yes, i mean, it is a matter that they will give their attention to. but there really is not very much that can be done about it because these drones small, they are cheap. they are available to their risk. you know,

markets on having down on groups like the last story by the jesse bomb month in the last 2 months. they are under sort of surveillance from the bach, assigning military as well, and so did the really laboring under sort of a lot of screens. and they're still trying to make themselves relevant by attacking indian dog. so on the one hand, it's good for the deed is good for them all, much if they can, but make a sort of an attack that is, but the den seen by their following is an attack on an indian dog it. but as i mentioned a little earlier, there's a severe limitation on the amount of damage that they can do. so to that extent it's, it's, it's sort of, it's something that will continue. it's something that has happened in the past as well, not against in a base, but again, you know,

trying to get guns and weapons across the border right through these grow. so to that extent, this is something that the indians will have to find ways of dealing with we have about 30 seconds left. how concerning the fact that you could potentially be talking about commercial commercially available drones that could be potentially useful attacks like this? but yes, that's the, that's true, the commercially available, they can even be rigged up by sort of the amazon has to do with that amount of damage. but as i mentioned, the amount of damage they can do is severely constrained. and that wasn't really a huge cause for white glove. i mean they were that, i mean thank you so much for joining us and the use of drones to attack military targets. it's also the subject of a documentary on our youtube channel by the w's chief international editor,

richard walker. richard discusses the dangers and concerns around the military use of drones, and also the use of artificial intelligence to make them more deadly. the many southeast asian nations have been slow when it comes to inoculating their populations against covered 1900, especially when compared to europe and north america. some suggest this is because of the initial success at containing the virus over another reason is vaccine hesitancy. hong kong is one territory now offering incentives to try to convince, hold out to get jobs. this lottery has a prize. few in hong kong can pass up real estate yearly, half a 1000000 people signed up on the 1st day. the grand prize, a one bedroom condo, the catch, you can only win if you're vaccinated. the apartment lottery can motivate more people to get vaccinated. it might not be too helpful, but it can provide,

hoping. still not everyone is swayed by the sky high jackpot. that's not really for me. if i'm fit to be vaccinated, i would do so more than what i suffer from high blood pressure, like glucose level and blood liquid level, my doctor advised me not to be vaccinated. to others, though, are now rushing to schedule their jobs and taste by a slew of new incentives, cash gold bars. even cars offered by private companies, eager to get the economy moving again all with the backing of the government. my funds. so we all share a common goal to restore normality to hong kong possible by boosting the vaccination rate so that every industry can do more business on pi, go hong kong dealer. but hong kong slow vaccination rate is not due to lack of

supply. hundreds of thousands of unused by on tech doses may be destroyed if they don't enter arms by august. so what's behind vaccine hesitancy in the city? there's the fear of side effects and government mis trust. but nearly 600000 people have been vaccinated in the last 2 weeks, as dreams of winning big turn heads, and change mines. now, another reason people are not being inoculated is because of a shortage of actions. this is true in taiwan, which is suffering a new outbreak. they're barely 7 percent of the population have so far received one dose. the government does take an extra steps to protect essential workers, such as garbage, collective, the, it's the familiar sounds that accompanies rubbish collection in taiwan. a cool to action. while in other parts of the world,

you might expect your garbage to be picked up in high pay residence, or expect you to drop off their trash to the truck. something that's continued even during the corona virus pandemic. the motion i was on those on your on board vehicles all have a public address system to remind the public box when we reach a collection point, they should wear their mask and maintain safe social distance thing to avoid crowd infection long to get i'm not but the routine for 50 for road sanitation worker hanging. when has completely changed these days, he has quite an extensive to do less to prepare for his day at work. it's all part of the time when he's government's efforts to protect its essential workers from cove at 19. the islands doesn't currently have enough doses of vaccine for all it's trash correct is. so it's having to take other steps to protect them.

ah. yeah, you can, by all these extra protection, get a giving us that this recent virus outbreak is very serious. only around 7 percent of taiwanese residents have had even one dose to vaccine. and with a population of 23000000, the territory has a considerable way to go. nevertheless, hanging when the government, together with the help of the public, can sorted out speeches type pay use after all, the capital ends. immortal city. residents are very cooperative. i feel safe working here. it lassitude like this, the government hope is when ensure a clean bill of health for its essential workers and a clean bill of health for streets or in the salvation already sweeping, locked on in bundle, others to combat the deadly decides of over 1000 infections,

started on monday, and if a sparked an exodus of margaret buck us from the capital taca, tens of thousands of people crammed themselves onto ferries of the weekend to cross a major river and get back to the home villages before the restrictions kicked in. over 19 infection started to rise again this month, more than 2 thirds of new vita spaces in taca out of the delta barrier and and to speaking at an overcast driven terminal south taka ready to board a 50 migrant workers express their frustration at the situation that i'm heading home. what would we do during this lockdown? it's better to start with my family in the village. everything will be closed during the lockdown. there's no point sitting idle and imprisoned in duck. i'd rather spend time with my kids and parents at home. we have to accept reality. there's nothing else we can do with simply victims of this bad

situation is of course more updates on the corner of tuition in asia, on our website come forward slash a show. we leave you today with the footage of a 2 and a half me to the crocodile who surprised the girl on her doorstep early sunday morning and i left the official struggle to capture him, but did so eventually. this is how things played out and see more of the the,

[000:00:00;00] the in the fight against the corolla virus pandemic. how has the rate of infection in developing what those, the latest research information and contact the corona virus. nazi 19 special next on dw, it's about billions. it's about power. it's about the foundation of the new

world order. the new silk road to china wants to expand this influence with this trade network also in europe, conflicts are inevitable. consequences unpredictable as gateway to europe starts july 1st on d, w ah, what a difference a year makes football fans follow the european championships in some places, even without masks the bands are playing before live audiences and people are traveling again. but it's all of that a good idea. just over a year ago, the corona virus made the world shut down,

brought death and despair. i'm seeing young patients, old patient, people of all age ranges, who are just incredibly sick. and you can even hear it now that as i'm walking through patients rooms in the hallway, you just hear oxygen. now the, our vaccines and countries where many people have had them more than half the population in the worst country, the u. s. in britain, that's even 2 thirds. after more than a year of code 19, we've become familiar with complex medical terminology, difficult biological concepts. but we also realize it's not going away that easily . britain and the united states are having trouble convincing more people to get vaccinated. jo delta, very and spreading rapidly and vast regions like africa

still lack of ac scenes. is it really time to celebrate the welcome dear cove at night his special i'm chris, kolber and berlin. life is beginning to return to normal in many places, as the worst of the pandemic looks like it might be behind us. but there are spots in the world where it's a different story, like an australia where several cities are re introducing restrictions to try to contain new covered $900.00 clusters. some linked to the delta varied sidney darwin has begun. new locked up while other cities are re introducing mask. where are the 5 percent of australia's population have been fully vaccinated? now the shows dealing and living with the virus is still necessary for now covered 19 isn't gone. that's good. more on this from julian tang, he's a vi ologist and

a clinical micro biology professor at lester university in the u. k. welcome to the w julian for more than a year. the current of iris has determined the daily lives of people around the globe. now you've been researching respiratory viruses for years. how is this virus different so this far as is not really behaving much differently from a typical pandemic virus that entering a totally central human population, i think was different about this far as now is the way we can actually study it in real time. and also track all the different computations as well as the case number . the death rates asians magic. this symptomatic transmission infection plus also the vaccine development and the anti virus trials are being developed that for this pandemic that the current of ours is not as deadly as a bowl, for example, nor is difficult to combat of h i v. nevertheless,

it has triggered an unprecedented global crisis. how exactly? so h, i be tends to attack a certain group of the population. and the bill again is very geographically confined, whereas the, my team is really started everybody from every country or the socio economic status individual. and also getting the healthcare will get trapped to them. so this is a facet spreads very much one of the vein of influenza. the measles, for example. we also turn cause asians back to construction. and it's very transmissible preceptor magically which is different from the previous saw as far as back in 2003. and also different from things like small folks and, and the bullet to some extent. because it can actually be transmitted up to 5 days before some, some onset, and some people never develop symptoms at all and kill those for the virus. and i was seeing penetration into the, in the population in primary school, secondary schools where these children mixing classes of 20 to 33rd day, 5 days

a week and bring the vice home to the parents so that i don't care is and i was seeing much much more of a focus in the population vaccinated yet. now the younger population being more affected by the current of ours is one of the things that has many people worried when it comes to the delta vary. and how worried are you about this mute? so this for the reasons one is like it's actually breaking through the double dose vaccinated individuals in the population to come a time when the vaccination of the older people have been mostly completed. so there was still seeing some breakout sessions there, but now is focusing on the younger people. and the young people are the ones who are still working and driving the economy as well as in full time education. and also seeing an emergence of long coded in a greater way than previously. conspiracy was obscured by deaths and hospitalization cases. but now we see lots of long civil, emerging fish,

50 people having hard coded to get long coded. this may become a chronic help to burden on the society during when the current virus started developing these varian, word among scientists was well, variance are more contagious, but probably less deadly or less likely to trigger severe cases. is that still the case when it comes to the death of area? so it's hard to say at the moment and now we've got, you know, delta plus with the delta a y won carrying the south african for 17 and mutation. if these parents keep emerging and changing as we tried to assess and it's very hard to actually find severity in a very different way. but one aspect we haven't really picked upon now that we did, especially last year, was this idea of antibody dependent enhanced. but i just wondering whether the previous community given by vaccine or national question to the original who had virus, might be wrapped in a different way to these new

a variance that may actually allows me to have severity of illness based on that baseline of immunity induced by the previous one, virus special immunity, or the vaccines which are based on the original virus. that's something that we need to look into. now, scientists have learned a lot about the current of ours in just the course of one year and quickly develop effective vaccines as well. what are the things that researchers do not yet know, and that they're specifically looking into ok, so the system has come out from you about the mixed vaccine regimen. which shows that if you give wonders of astrazeneca 1st and then a 2nd, those are the 54 weeks later you get a very good level community. so this mix and max fact seems, seems to work quite well. and even the reverse order seems to be quite effective, so that will help hopefully, broad. the vaccine options globally, of course, the money reflection to try and this. the other thing is whether reinfection or brakes infections also have

a kind of higher risk or lower risk of long have it. this is just natural section for the 1st time. we're not sure what the consequences of reinvention would be, because a lot of infections, a milder, we don't know whether that actually increases or decreases the risk long have it as well. doing in your opinion, have mistakes been made in research that might have contained the extent of the pandemic briefly if you would. yes, i think all european north america realized that it could have acted earlier and will dramatically, from southeast asia. and so that in australia, new zealand locked down the virus earlier to give time. so the fact seems to be developed and distributed or product ministered. so the countries like australia, new zealand, and soc is in countries, they've got it right. in the 1st part, the pandemic. now what we seeing is an increased degree of action hesitancy and refusal in those same countries that actually did very well controlled the virus, because they see the process less of the threatened vaccine probably affects that

change. and that mentality needs to be made to place everybody from ongoing reputation virus on the generation of new variance to tang of less than versity. thank you for your thoughts and now it is time to put one of your questions to our science. corresponded that williams paul. oh, new cove. 19 variance just grew stronger and stronger over time. oh, this is a tough question to answer because it assumes that evolution is predictable, which it isn't. mutation happens randomly and virus genomes, as they replicate, and the physical changes that those genetic changes end up causing the virus is what we mean when we talk about it evolving a tiny fraction of those mutations by just by sheer dumb log,

they'll provide variance with evolutionary advantages of some kind, a big advantage, as we've seen, for instance, with the alpha and the delta variance, as far as covey to is. if a variant becomes more transmissible for some reason, but trans miss ability can increase for a range of reasons. one is say that a variant is able to get yourself to make a lot more of a, than your average work today. sorry, cubby to virus can. another would be if a variant were able to remain viable, longer in the environment, hence increasing its chances of infecting someone. so very different reasons. same effect. see what i mean about predicting this stuff. so when you say stronger and stronger, which i assume means causing worse and worse disease, then you have to start by asking whether doing so would provide

a variant with evolutionary advantage or some time and, and it's hard to see how it would a lot of biologists say, a more optimal combination of trace for a virus is to grow, eventually more transmissible, but at the same time, less deadly. because if a pathogen doesn't kill people, they're going to be around to spread it to others, and they're more likely to let down their guard. and in fact, each other with it. so, though we can't predict with any certainty what future stars covey to variance, well look like many experts expect them to spread more easily, but cause less severe disease. could well be that within 10 or 20 years, getting over 19 won't be any worse for the average person than say, catching a cold is today. but because evolution isn't predictable,

that's just the hopeful guess me evolution isn't predictable. well, that's all for this edition of code 900 special for more information about the pandemic. you can check out the covert 900 section on our website at w dot com until next time. thanks for watching ticket. who's the news? the news,
