day tally of co and a virus cases at more than $26000.00. a city in crisis mode london is being his heart by the army colonel variant of the corona virus. it has all ready overtaking delta as the dominant strain here, driving up infections and forcing the mayor of london to react. wholesale emissions are going up, but also stop absences. our guide up are by massive a level. so i've taken the decision in causal taishan with our partners to declare a major incident today. the measure was last taken in january and allows local government to work more closely with emergency services. it's not just a capital that is in crisis for several days now. the u. k. has witness to record case numbers. in response, the government has stepped up its vaccination campaign. almost 3000 locations across england were turned in to make shift vaccination centers on saturday. the

you case on the current search has prompted germany to impose tougher rules on travel from a number of countries including the u. k. but restricting international travel, it will only slow the spread at best. dutch prime minister mark router on saturday announced a lockdown that will limit gathering over christmas and close the shops, restaurants on cultural then use also feel mowgli air. we need to intervene. now we're to prevent a much worse outcome. the lockdown as a precaution for that's the complicated story we have to tow. shoppers rushed for some last minute purchases before the measures came into effect, lockdown or none. the w h o expects amico to become dominant in the countries where it has taken hold. scientist war and the search in cases could further burden overstretched health systems and lead to staff shortages across many sectors. there's a look at some of the developments in this and demick gemini has put the united

kingdom on its list of high risk cove countries, meaning types travel restrictions starting monday, arrivals from britain will need to quarantine for 2 weeks whether they are vaccinated or not. the world health organization says the owner can vary until the cone a virus is spread and faster than the previously discovered. delta variant, the w h was that however weakens severity remains unclear. the variance has now been discovered in 89 countries worldwide. in the u. s. a virus, a demick is getting worse at the delta and only conveyance continue to spread. the overall number of confirmed cobra. 1000 cases surpassed 50700000 on saturday with some experts in that countries are ready of a bed and health care system could collapse. for more harm now joined by our correspondent christine wonder in amsterdam. hello, christine. the netherlands lockdown is already in effect. what's the move in amsterdam? hi, edie. so i'm, there are a lot of people out in about say,

in the streets of amsterdam today. a lot of them are tourists who are now scrambling for what to do because a lot of their plans have been affected by this new lockdown that's come into place i visited at what was supposed to be a christmas market today. that's basically been taken down. i, within hours radio since the pro prime minister spoke last night, very angry people, disappointed at this was supposed to be a time for them to, to make a lot of money essentially. but you know, because of this announcement, everything has to close. little kids, disappointed. they can even do things like ice skating in the outdoors. and so there is a lot of disappointment. yeah. and people just making do what, what they can outdoors as you can see happening around me and behind me. disappointments are, i guess, quite understandable. but what made this locked on necessary, christine? eddie, it is it is omar con, ensure to am, i was in the netherlands and not very long ago about 3 weeks ago. and already then

it was clear that infections were rising. in fact, hospitals in the southern provinces limber already reporting that they are covered wards were at high capacity. and that it did necessary such as it may solicited some kind of a lockdown to, to slow the spread of infractions. of course, the idea back then was that if, if that lockdown came into, if it was a light locked down back then that it would free up at least a space for christmas celebrations and, and for the christmas holiday period, i to go as planned, but omicron has obviously thrown in a curve ball and now we see that infections continue to rise 3 weeks ago. i'm only con, was detected here and it's expected that between christmas and new year, it's going to be the dominant variance here. so we are looking at a government that is looking to, to, to, to do as much as possible to sort of slow the spread of fictions to allow the booster all out. there is an 85 percent vaccination ratio, but less than 10 percent of adults have received a booster shot. so this is really

a allowing the system to catch up in that sense as well as to allow hospitals and to be able to make way for, for what is expected to be an onslaught as the infections here continue to rise. did you correspond as christine manuel? thank you. now, hong kong is seeing it's fast parliamentary elections since e crackdown on approved the progressive movements by age in. we just hours to go observe, as i see in an assumption of the low vote at 10 out with just some 20 percent cast on the ballot. many hong kong residency b. c. the process us need a fair, not democratic, is a 1st legislative council elections in speech in imposed se been national security law on be formed. the electoral system on the news only candidates, considered he trotted to china, can run many opposition. candidates have been silenced, jewelled off let the territory, hong kong leader carry lamb was one of the 1st to cast her votes. she denies accusations that government has set voter turnout rates, but i do have sarah key

a target for this general election of a legislative council. one is to ensure patriots administering hong kong. and i think that objective has been met through the design of the candidate eligibility video committee. did of you correspondence? phoebe. com is in hong kong covering be election high. phoebe only so called patriots are allowed to run in this election. how does a candidate prove to be a patriot? well, there is basically no mocking scheme for the candidates reference. a new fat ting, body headed by hong kong senior officials is responsible for screening their candidates, according to their speeches and behaviors are basically throughout the lives to determine whether they are patriotic or not. are to see whether they are not possibly of our late or national security and are the requirements under that basic law on so on addition,

only on greater power has also been given to an election committee separate probation, all eyes. so that is an additional hack to on, to be like a french whole, to screen out any candidates who are not deemed as patriotic according to the official standards. so how are people on the streets, reacting to this feat requisite well, with almost all major opposition parties absent from this election, many of his supporters, especially the young people, are no longer interested in casting their boat. as i'm standing outside are one of the polling station here we haven't seen long line, and i outside the police station are and like pro democracy support us are no longer interested in the polls, which is a huge contrast to previous elections in hong kong history. and i'm like, the government is stepping up at 1st to our booth to turn out rate because a ton of ac is at the core of on the election day. and we'll be, i'll lay

a kind of a reflection of the legitimacy and the representativeness of the election that the government armed over free rise for public transport. and also setting new polarization at the border, hoping to attract more people to vote. ah, but then we, you spoke to some of the photo state. they express their like reasons why they felt or not to vote. so let's have a listen. you're my case. i sound too soon. i voted no last election, but i'm not doing so this time because no candidate can represent my opinion. i thought of, you know, diana forties falsely claimed that the electoral system has been improved, but in fact it's become more totally terry. so i don't want to vote you, she says she oh, i supported in the past and now in jail i have no interest in this. she is paula. as all the candidates belong to the similar political spectrum. europe though, so de la, most of the candidates this year are patriotic china and hong kong. i support them . i hate to hi johan goal. one thing i vote because i support those who can stabilize hong kong and bring us a happy life. instead of triggering chaos, armina,

phoebe maniacs of his not vote in their how strong is the opposition movement still? where the movement has been lost, she suppressed 17 percent. her imposition of the national security law. and for example, in this election, we have seen various forms of resistance, half also been banned by the authorities or that under the new electro systems de authorities, criminal lies open courts for boy caught up the election that are caught warren's, was it, or even issue to ex, out activists who will cause more, ignore out ignoring the election and casting blank. those so on, people are not allowed to light openly, like calling for any risk dis, into the new elections and are many, are active as and leaving vickers to now in jo ann detention. so it's very hot for them to sustain the momentum. but i think some of the members as to resorting to

otherwise i'll love that institution. okay. did of you correspondence? phoebe. com. thank you. i was 5. yes to the day since germany's 1st major islamist tara tak. i'm a christmas market right here in berlin. e commerce in advance is being held in the capital to remember the victims, the attacker hijacked the truck, entailed the driver before plowing into crowds at the bright sights plants christmas market, killing 11 more people. another man died a few weeks ago from injury sustained that night bring in the vet told to 13 the attacker, on a summary was a food to nation asylum seeker who was known to authorities. a few days later, you are shot dead by police while on the run in italy. ah, the christmas lights are on and the roots festive at the market and berlin's pie chart plots. at 1st glance, it's hard to see any trace of the terror attack 5 years ago, lou,

but market trader max miller will never forget of that day. he barely escaped with his life when the truck plowed on to the site and destroyed his stand far my knowledge of my bank. i was working when i heard a loud noise. and he sounded like a dumpster being rolled away, told me that the was of all a humming noise in the background. and i turned around and saw the truck. and what happened with lit up did it go because in my wife and i ran to safety, been in to be fair with men of all completed in 13 people were killed in the attack and more than 60 wounded. the horror is not forgotten. this fight, this max miller has opened a new stand at the christmas market. he prefers not to show us because he doesn't want publicity. how did you find the courage to return to the scene for the ball from the school? i would say this is the best way of dealing with trauma. the i was in therapy and

learn how to cope with my feelings and to be in, but it will be with him for the rest of my life. when my children asked me nothing wrong daddy wanted, what was on that day the sea, i'll probably stutter a little before i can tell them the story. i'm soon come. we saw many visitors have mixed feelings about being at the christmas markets. there is a holiday atmosphere, but also a sense of grief, especially at the memorial to the victims is up in law. if you look chill running down my spine, i can't put it on. come on where it says on the monday list, because when you see the lights and smell the hotdogs in that you kind of forget the bad things for awhile and my court appointed a horrible, but you can't change what happened. giving in to the terrorists was never an option, says traitor max miller and his colleagues agree. then as a so i thought linda, it'll always be with us august. you can't forget something like that for the short of to you to try out. but we all said,

we have to keep going and not look back. you listen by them on the phone in the memory of the attack will never go away. but to day, the christmas spirit has returned to berlin's pride, shide plus that's all for now up next wild stories. the week in reports, we'll have more weld headlines at the top of the off stay with us. and if we get, you can get all the latest news and information around the clock on our website. that's d w dot com. thanks for joining us. state you in posts this more coming up in a live and on demand content in language courses, video and audio. any time anywhere. the d. w

media center, the w's crime fighters are back africa. most successful radio drama series continues this season. the stories focus on hate speech, cholera, prevention, and sustainable charcoal production. all episodes are available online. and of course you can share and discuss on d, w, africa's facebook page, and other social media platforms, crime fighters, tune in now. we're good. ah, ah, this week on well, stories do hannah's bug fighting the corona virus. a dispute over a coal mine in britain,

but we began in ukraine. there was international concern about the deployment of russian troops on the countries east in buddha. how i residence in the border region, handling the threats this muddy trek used to be an international crossing from ukraine to russia for alina and her neighbors with family and friends on both sides. it was a lush like that. yeah, no up at all. i want to check what kind of why they've put up. yes, yes, it sparked why i call you j tucker. says, and they've cloud this strip to catch people. you try to cross with it lowered a few signs, some fencing and some barbed wire or whatever. it might not look like a particularly well defended frontier between 2 countries in conflict. but it's certainly a big change of people in this part of eastern ukraine, though, until a few years ago could drive across the border without much is showing a passport. was the last year that was my neighbor,

has his elderly mother down there on the russian side. it's only 6 kilometers from here. but now he has to do a huge loop and travel 10 times that to pass through the board to post the motion. as in you, when the boat offense was 1st built few years ago, helena tells us relatives would come and stand on both sides to talk over the barbed wire. it's this closeness, these personal ties that mean that many here aren't ready to believe that armed conflict with russia is even possible for us on the gym, particularly we hear all the scary things in the news, but i just can't imagine it affecting us here. there's no animosity between us. nasha met him as a milligram. that may be the case, but the tanks in the troops are definitely there. even if they're still some 200 kilometers from helene as border village with u. s. defense sauces, warning invasion, could be a reality within months. very earnest terms is gulf don't. we've been expecting of russian innovation since 2014, and they're always flex in their muscles. and. and i think this is just an attempt

to when political concessions probably 20 to 3, but then in a politician are in, in the border town of mill over this. not much of that shield evidence with russian and ukrainian border guards, barely metro part along the boundary which runs down the middle of the main street . but even here were many locals can see russia from their windows. it's cold and economic worries rather than russian tanks for now. a still weighing most heavily on people's minds law last year. how can we be in danger if the board is right there, we would have seen something already. yo, i've only seen those russian tanks on t b, but we can't see or hear them here. yet. no tensions here. so as negotiations between washington and moscow to resolve these tensions go into overdrive people on the ground, this new crane seem unwilling to believe that the threat of war is real till they see those russian tanks with their own eyes. ah, the only chron variant is causing a surgeon corona,

virus infections, especially in south africa, where it was fast detected. the mayor of johannesburg wants to do everything she can to stop it from spreading farther. johannesburg at night is a party town. there is no social distancing, no masks, no registering of guests at claps. local may am pull, pallets is not happy with the situation and is taking part in a police rate the on the confident of call, the 19 isn't looming for wave of call. then i'll number the didn't happen, we very concerned about compliance. he called and regulation the music is turned off and the club closed for these guests. the party was over long before the midnight curfew, but pellets, his job is just getting started. she is the 1st black female mayor and johannesburg city that was once the dream destination for gold prospectors. but now,

as the city in crisis pallets there wants to stop this trends. but now the pandemic is causing her further concern. she is to prepare the city for a 4th cove. it waif, a lot of systems already in place. i have also seen gaps though, that need to be addressed, particularly around making sure that service delivery continues in the covered era . and we need to strengthen performance management, particularly where officials are having to work from home. i've heard rumors of people working from home never coming in. and there's no real means of seeing if people are delivering and on what they've been applied to do. and so such things need to be a given attention to ensure that the 4th wave does not hit the city as hard as previous ones. palatez trying to convince people to get vaccinated. only one and 4 south africans is fully vaccinated. although there's enough vaccine available here

in the so wait or township the vaccination rate is particularly low. they say that to a nuclear foxley ted, you'll get some diseases like cove with native made their phase because some of the different rooms do this. they do, but listen, they get sick. the uptake is very low and the research has shown that in terms of cases that are hospitalized that end up with complicated disease. a lot of them are the ambassador nathan pilots is a single mother and a doctor. and she fears the pandemic will take up much of her time ah, almost all the residence of toledo, a city and southwest, in brazil, vaccinated against the corona virus. this is despite president wilson, our stance. he long denied the pandemic existence. ah. just

a few months ago doing the rounds. here was a grueling task for emergency doctor jose. i proceed. oh, so bow. so now all empty these beds were once occupied by critically ill coded 19 patience the corridors. the hospital in the brazilian city of toledo is deserted. emergency beds now in the storage room, it's the result of what might be brazil's most successful vaccination drive quite a bit, but we used to have 40 into bacon patients here. now we don't have any hot, and it's very rare for us these days to provide that level of intensive care. the cases are also much less severe than before. so we can think more carefully about how best to treat those who are sick and to give them a better prognosis. maybe some i know, but tonight in southwestern, brazil is home to some 143000 people. corona virus was right here only

a few months ago, like many other parts of the country. the severe health crisis was followed by one of the fastest and most efficient vaccination drives in brazil. american pharmaceuticals company, pfizer recently launched a long term study and laid out over the course of a year. it's observing what happens when everyone in a city is vaccinated against covey. 19 hello, everyone. over the age of 12, including 13 year old anna, will be given the full dose of some a doubt, mobile app, romanella. the mother tells us that her whole class got vaccinated with no bad side effects. she answered almost every one continued to go to school as far as she knew both vaccination isn't compulsory. there just hardly any skeptics here. the city council president is simply relying on people's willingness to get

vaccinated your vehicle? yes or no? got a dog. i doubt that anywhere else in the world has so much expertise. and so many vaccination centers, if we had enough vaccine before, give us enough 100 percent of the population would have been fully vaccinated long ago course we have a tradition of vaccination status of us in ourselves. the sample to st. block, we took them toledo is serving as a test lab for the rest of the world. in a year or 2, many questions could be answered here. under which conditions do virus variance develop among vaccinated people? and how long does protection last? at this to later hospital, there's growing hope the pandemic is finally coming to an end. in britain, a new mine is to be built in a former coal mining region. climate acts with a trying to stop its construction mass, many residents in the area. hope it will bring new jobs

main shafts and pitts could these soon be back in operation. there's a good chance they could be says div credit. he was a minor for decades and he loves his job. he was responsible for ventilation and all the culprits in white, even a small town in northern england, including this one. that was the best job i ever had in my life. miners look after themselves on the ground because it's such a dangerous, healthy fish. when i came out of the mines, i didn't find that on the surface call was last produced in 1986. and then from there that was the lush coal mining in cumbria know that her plans to start mining cool again for steal production. the see bit

here is a veritable treasure. truth, an estimated 750000000 tons of coal lie under the water. if you want to steal you need call the 1000000 tons of it out there on the job. why bring it from broad? when you've got it, many british steel work still use coal. there are new technologies which is hydrogen to pursue production or recycle old steel. and these are constantly being improved. but they have yet to replace call. the council has already given the go ahead for a new calorie on this former factory site, but climate activist carol would and her husband robin are campaigning against it. the climate change agenda is just so urgent now. i mean, we are actually seeing the impact of climate disaster and it's not, it's not in the future. it's happening now. and we haven't got any wiggle room. we

absolutely need to keep this colin ground. this is the position of the new mine over on the marsh on site. and that's where that light is on the top just over there, over there. but div credit is my things. yes. take about the new plans, every one and reviving the many tunnels of the past. the this map shows that mining was ones everywhere in the past. call the ship from here. but now there are just a few private boots. the old industries have died out making the region one of the poorest in britain. many lucas hopes the new mine will bring back jobs. so the battle goes on between locals, who hope for return to the all times of high employment and others who want to move forward to a better, more environmentally friendly future. ah,

female power on the 77 percent courageous with creative women, athletic women with ladies. yeah. i did a lot of different descriptions. why? depends on the was asking. the 77 percent next on d. w. ah. place of luxury for the powerful and feminist it's absolute.

a lot of things. so yeah, i have a lot of different descriptions before i am events and i was asking i knew oh. 7 music in very, very important to me because one, it's easier for me to express why i am express my feelings, the things that i'm thinking about my day to day life also music heels, so it heels, me the singer. it also heels. people will listen to what i play and what i see. the reason i'm a diverse i do so i can thing coral oberon from the traditional because of course i studied music is as

a subject. and i studied music ology from africa and also from european side. and because music is a universal language, i can explore and do more. so i don't limit myself. sometimes it's so important that you have to have your own self esteem challenged by youth, not by other people or somebody else. coming to say a comment on all you look like that or you look like that. you have to, to, to have this self awareness of look and beautiful. just doesn't matter where the abs or not a good point, belly or whatever the thing that counts how. how do i feel in my book i i always believe that traditional instruments help me to guide me from where i'm

coming from. i always believe when you know where you're from your destination and your direction of where you're going, makes it very easy to navigate. because i'll always have to relate from where i'm from and where i'm from and when people support you from where you're from, you're good to go. indeed and if the by the metal, welcome to the 77 percent. thank you. thank you for having me. i'm really excited to hear you so beautiful. thank you. i mean, you've done quite a lot. what could you highlight? so you could say in your career, i think it's the creativity of the maintainance of my cultural beliefs and i think the music history, everything. so i'm really happy with everything that i've accomplished sofa also worked with the of calls all of them to africa, lead them and say he must have had an influence on your craft. yes. all. if i used

to always say that you know of him by, there's always this moment where you are, you have to be in the crowd and then you're going to sit at the back and then you wait for people to come and take you from that back and put you in front. so i've always taken that as a thing. and today i feel like i feel really honored because i had somebody calling me for you. think of you and see please can you come through and i was like, oh my god, somebody sees the the, the things that i do and they appreciate. so i'm really on it of course you've been nominated for civil awards with them. some of them. yes. as symbol musical was, was nominated 2 years in a row, and also this dive in musical lud then. yeah, i think those too, and also when now we wait for this year busy in the us town. but you know, you are not new to control the see. i mean,

when you look at your social media handles, for example, instagram, your picture view posting new, then this has really divided your fun bases, especially bucking in bob with well, for me, i feel like we have a tradition is africans, if you see most, in most africans, people sometimes in villages or still don't care about wearing any clothes. they were animal skin and the pride, the culture like that. for me, i feel like odd is supposed to speak in, in, in certain ways. that tells a story behind the story. when i look at some of the pictures for some of them they took about, we have been displaced as people, as africans where we have everybody all over the world. because of the hardships we go through from our b, from our big kids. so such stories, sometimes they have to be very provocative to be able to express that so people can understand exactly how much depth there is in that story. so

i look at it from the history point of view from the cultural point of view, and from the telling the story point of view. so there's a lot to do with it. well indeed, we after 7 to 7 percent of what they think of showcasing their body on social media . and let's have a look at what they have to say. well, i think that nudity, in general, is not something that we should put onto social media because social media is abroad cause nowadays. and it's very important to remember that social media has a lot of audience. it's got a lot of reach and especially when it comes to go, children, we have you or just children in general, we have to be very careful as to the morals and the principles of passing on. at some point in life, i would want to be employed some yeah, maybe i'm going for interview to linda, my opportunities, you see. and at some point in that you know, a little a, if we have family. what if our children see such pictures of our community is to be today? i think maybe it is fun and creative like the whole process of taking,

taking pictures of videos, most of the so called know the i tend to see as i've so many different views over looking at it instead of given either way. but then there's also no d, t, we can therefore, so again, took over the last week that when somebody, i took the text of the beta some clothes that you're putting on, you know, the question is, how is it in the printed? what's the messaging around it, and how is it use as a form to communicate what they've been? but you've seen the different reactions to this topic, which is a very sensitive and vertical. i mean, what? well, well, 1st of all, i like to say before the missionaries came to invade us, we didn't have worries about what we, where our mothers is used to just walk around with everything showing and it was

just did nothing to do with sex or how a woman looks or the appeal or it was just a way of life. there was nothing to it. this is why i use it in my artistry sometimes. okay. and then there's a story about if you want to say and, and if you want to project a very provocative message, you have to literally say the weight is, that's how i know the to comes out is like burying it all. you have to literally go there and buried all. that's how you say the story. yeah. but clearly many african societies still critical about this is a 6 and the body. i mean, why do you think now it's right? time to pick about such things as failing public. ok, so i feel like we have put sex like it's very, very important. i know it's important in the aspect that we, we have children through sex. it's not as important. it is just

a part of what is supposed to happen in a relationship. it's not the most important thing. if you, you can have sex but not to have the rest of the things in the relationship. that's not a relationship. so i think we need to talk more about our positive energy, how we directing our stories to the right to the right topic without just saying ok, i've seen their skin so they must be immoral. i think that's the most where people use the immoral part. you are immoral because you have shown us the skin from here to day, but we also see immortality even with the people wearing suits and ties. and so i think we, we value too much sticks and, and we make it like it's something very, very, very, very important. but it's just one of the things, well, a someone who is very famous of windows

t. how do you handle such controversy that come your way? normally i try to hear people out and then i tried to explain. if somebody asked me in a very nicely, then i'll explain what it actually means in some people actually say, oh, i didn't know that this is what you're talking about. now that i do, i appreciate it and then some people will just ignore it. so you can never make everybody happy. social media. everybody has their own opinion. you though. ok. i'm speaking of to booth cleopatra who is the 1st 21 in uganda. many of the to q i, people live 6 people avoid harassment from all those views and the public. she believes talking about pumps and gender identity as mid some people are more tolerant to what sexual minorities, what's her story? ah, petra, come, google is no ordinary ugandan, identified as a boy at birth, campbell felt she was in the wrong body. fisher yesterday, in for as

a heterosexual woman, because i'm into maine. but in terms of gender, i do. i didn't try the transgender woman. apparently my hands on my buddy, i'm on the same like what was on my passport. can book with the 1st know and transgender ugandan to be issued, a national id, registering her with a different gender than the one she was given at birth. she called it a big win mainly because uganda is widely said to be a homophobic society for me, it's more main task. it's a huge, more made it difficult. it feels like i'm done it. i've done me and i hope this ticket i'm think yeah, you know the fact that as i turned into a woman able to, i did that she'd save that things. it's means not that things that it shouldn't have been that that, that time for it like, i feel like i'm wearing a kronos and uganda. many algae beauty q i, people live secretly to avoid harassment from authorities and the public. but come

to go as public about her status. she believes talking about her transgender identity has made some people more tolerant towards sexual minority. that's why i want to live now. i'm transgender. i talk about the different secret, if on my way it's my, it's my instagram, it's on all my for sure. i don't hide about about it and that's about it. i try to leave open the problem for them. and so you know what? there's nothing wrong with me and i don't think you should do something. you don't understand somebody who is fighting for more inclusive uganda on her social media accounts. she calls for society where everyone is free to decide who they want to be. i exist, i'm here this what they look like, a new plan for me. can you account for me when they go to like a hospital level? if i have an in my passport, can i go and i might be able to lake bright health. why pap smear, when they feel when you have been i, since, as a country kind of look at that christian fee,

does it count all you've done done. become much like gender and difficult to come to terms. you know, people include the different counting people like what the government era and you actually called hum, offered dates. can you live in because it's not being born. kimberly says, i'm speaking out for people like her is not an easy task. but she remains convinced that changing society. i take one little push at a time. that was really interesting in by 1st i would like to hear your thoughts on that story. well, i believe everyone is created equal and you should feel free to be whoever you where you are in bob and probably will come in. but we're in the country. we don't allow jan. how do you feel that transgender is or gaze, or lesbians? although the, this will, of course, is the same as in, you know, with their leaving is secret life. but we have, as in bob, when was very popular,

was the transgender, and he's very, i think everything, but we love him, her just not a woman. and she's, she's just living a life so ok, let's come back to music. the global funding because really cost hovel across many systems including used mean her very difficult. several lives in the equipment outbreak. many artists have had really difficult to perform and you included how have you been able to manage all this? well, the panoramic has affected the sector more than anything i think. and we have come up with different ideas of doing online shows, which obviously not the same as being in contact with the audience. we love it when people are shouting and screaming and sweating. but that is not been really happening. but as for the travel bun, we are very unhappy about that because then it, it stops us from touring,

from being in other countries to do different shows. i personally didn't stop. i was traveling through the pandemic. i did everything i could to make sure i don't stop, which means i had to follow every particle from every country i was going to. and if i have to current i know get a p c r. i did that so that at least i can continue to make music into what i love . well, thank you so much, bye moody for hanging out with us today, and we wish you really all the best in your endeavors. thank you so much for having me. the international travel bonds against many countries in sub saharan africa caused he took the bits our own in the money is driving right into it. check it out. aah! and when they emergence of the coven 19 on the con variant led to an almost immediate imposition of travel bonds. 2 countries in south africa,

africans reacted angry africa is not new to being left behind. singled out or just being ignored in times of global shad crises. we just need to look back to december of 2020, to be reminded how did sometimes happens at the time us secretary general antonio parish ones. that vaccine nationalism was moving at full speed. he was of course, referring to the hoarding and delays with intellectual property waivers. of the vaccines from wealthy countries. 12 months later, that's today. the results are in full display. a recent report from doctors without borders estimates, there are 500000000 excess doses in the united states, even if every eligible american got a booster. the same report goes on to say that 241000000 doses could be wasted by g 7 and you countries alone in 2021. now of course, these countries can do with their doses what they want, but when you consider that only 76000 people have been fully vaccinated in chad or

just a 1000 in burgundy, then the question of moral responsibility really comes into play. these vaccine. iniquity, reflect long standing social, economic, and political inequality between wealthy and poor nations. these inequality is manifest in empathy response as well. in march of 2016, the l. a times published a peace headlined, why you probably didn't hear everyone talking about these major tara attacks. the piece went on to describe how attacks in african and middle eastern countries had gone and noticed that as belgium and france were also reeling back from violent and deadly attacks on home soil. now the world watched as social media giant pushed hashtags and special colored profile pictures in support of the european countries . the world also watched as monuments all over the world war covered in digital, french, and belgium flags. and unfortunately, that's where the empathy seemed to run out. that one, no flags, no hash tags,

or more prayers to go around. it is impossible to care for everyone's problems everywhere all the time. but when you get become so easy to not care about, most of the problems coming from one part of the world. so often thank you. it's for but passionate educational overview. if you want more content, more heated debates took out, are you to know when i head over to somebody land there we see a bunch of passionate young female eclipse fixing another taboo of sort them playing basketball is a porn in the sight of many traditionalists numberless with girls out of charlie's in the running against the social norms, we met them on the court. practicing lay up under the baking sun of some molly land is hard work, but sportsmen like half star oma don't seem to care. when i come here is,

is basically what i the best moments of the whole we because i love basketball and i've been playing for 9 years now. the only annoying thing is like when we're about to come inside here is just like people make some noises. some say something half, so my refers to intruding boys. this basketball court is closed off from the public, but that doesn't prevent some boys from trying to sneak in or watch from a distance. they are very strict towards religion, but i feel like it only be used for women because men go out to do whatever they want. a lot of these girls have to stay are home per clean. a lot of them don't have jobs to go to as they're in the employment rate. here is very, very well the time that they're training is that the only time that they have some sort of freedom. a jamar hammered is a boxing champion and a professional basketball player from the u. k. lab. after graduating, she moved to smiley land to encourage sports among girls. now she's managed to set

up their 1st international match ever against key booty. it's some feat, considering the ministry of sports previously cancelled and or female football match alleging bureaucratic problems. but i, on believes officials bowed to conservative pressure and were looking for an excuse to prevent girls from playing sports at somali land as a conservative society. some believe women and girls shouldn't play sports at all. he did that. you well, if girls are playing alone, it is okay, but not together with boys. it's normal with the play alone but not with boys. our religion doesn't allow that. very western culture says that as normal, but our culture and religion don't support that. just the logistics are a struggle with very few basketball court surrounded by walls like this one i on and her team also face harassment on the streets and on social media. if there were

around the street and get recognized, will be respected in the way that they should be respected. it's a very dangerous game that we're playing in general as full. but just as the team from liberty arrives, i don't get the call from an intermediary to the ministry of sports. they won't sanction the match. it's a massive disappointment. it's a massive disappointment to me today, to national community communities that helped us the, you know, to the part of a company that allowed all of this to happen later live music club in the capital r k. so the 2 teams make the best of the situation by enjoying the evening together, but it's only a temporary distraction from a crushing disappointment. i just hope things change. maybe in can. yes, this is not the case. you know, they need to have better connections to better people. that is going to be better. i am mohammed though it's far from giving up. she says she'll do whatever it takes

to see the go compete on the court. even if it takes another 10 years. tough times for these goes, what makes it even harder somebody land israel recognized as a sobering state and is not but of international or even olympic committees. that lack of the resources create difficult surroundings. fingers crossed big thing, but they push on to keep your heads up golf. it's time to wrap up the sure hope you've enjoyed every bit of it. we are eager for your feedback. so get in touch on facebook, youtube, or on our instagram channel. as all this will leave you with some music, and of course miss no better choice today than been by the motto. so here she is in her song, volcanic enjoy and bye for now. i
