1:03 pm
risk. how gay and noise lam with one other. this is not the best situation. i have had to evaluate whether to leave like last year, when i could not do this or to take only to risk. and i have taken a risk at event number one and though mary randall half way across the globe, australians of also facing christmas with our micron cases here have sold to new records, fueled by the variant residents doing their best to keep safe. we had our mom, we've done the rapid antenna, things that were being effective, we can sang as much, lee ready, but with oma chron already racing. santa claus around the world, many seems set for another unmarried christmas. on joining many in the studio now is the w political correspondent, finding a young says, i mean we've just heard and a report. there's so many travel plans being disrupted with the surgeon army con.
1:04 pm
what does it look like in germany? so what kinds of restrictions have been imposed on people wanting to come here for the holiday season? here, germany is very worried about army kron and they are beefing up their travel restrictions. they've added more countries to their list of high risk areas as they define them. adding the united states in spain and portugal to that list that already includes the u. k. in south africa and some other south africa, southern african countries are that'll come into force from saturday. what it means is that any one arriving from there, we'll have to self isolate for 14 days, irrespective of their vaccination status. so it's pretty tough. it also means an automatic travel warning from the german foreign office. and, you know, these kind of restrictions are a real problem particular coming in just before christmas people we've seen a p c r test being required from visitors from the u. k. that's created some havoc
1:05 pm
for those who, who didn't get the message in time. some of them not able to make their planes a lot of empty planes from the u. k. arriving in germany today or on another front . the leaders of germany and the netherlands have been appealing to people not to travel across that border. of course, it's normally completely open. people visit each other's country all the time. this year people are saying, please don't do that. i only bit of good news. neighboring austria is not on the high risk list. a lot of people want to go skiing over the over the christmas period so that that could still happen. so what does it mean for the type of christmas that people can expect in germany? this see, i mean one thing is not being able to see your family members coming from abroad. but what about for those of us in germany? what kind of restrictions are people dealing with in the next couple of days? well, it, it varies in different parts of germany. but so what we're tending to is,
1:06 pm
you know, smaller groups at the moment the central government has essentially been appealing to people to reduce their contacts as far as possible. some places have already brought forward before christmas, or what is going to come in, certainly from the 28th of december, namely, a limit of 10 people, only meeting in private settings. as long as they're all vaccinated tied to restrictions still for the unvaccinated. going to be an unusually quiet christmas and new year this year. and pretty unusual christmas day as well in cologne cathedral. you can even get vaccinated on christmas day management. yeah, i think many people would not have been able to imagine that i did away simon young . always get to talk to you. well, many hospitals in europe are once again being stretched to their limit and staff are more burned down than ever. nevertheless that they're trying to bring warmth, enjoy and to patients who are spending christmas on the wards. he w christine went, were visited belgium's leanne at central university hospital. and has this report
1:07 pm
tis the season, but much of the jolly has gone. there are more masks than santa hats, a never year. another variant, a never cove at christmas. at this hospital in the belgian city of the age, vaccines mean it's better this time around, but they're not sure how long that will last. this time, last year this hospital was overwhelmed with cove at 19 patients. it got so bad. some of the i see you patients had to be airlifted to neighboring germany. the situation is under control for now, but the stars here are bracing for our micron. this is the coven ward, and staff here are hoping for the best, but they are preparing for the worst and keeping a nervous eye on, on the cron infection numbers. we're hoping that it won't be too far because we know a soda 3 don't have all the stuff we would need if it was very,
1:08 pm
very big. and we will do our best help. lucas have had a grueling couple of years. the hospital psychologist say's the uncertainty is making it difficult to cope isn't the whole lack of faculty, but the latest. i don't see that people, the nurses or doctors are afraid to do because they're more anxious that this might gone forever. that this or a petition just won't stop back because in the end when varying chase's the last a lot and it comes in race it a dog which is very exhausting. cancer is assess it truly, please don't tie it as they are nursing staff will, as they always do, try to lift the spirits of those in hospital this christmas. but that's particularly tricky with covert patients. they're isolated and can't have visitors,
1:09 pm
but they will be a special surprise on christmas morning. we have some kids who are writing from cos every year since i'm here since years and years now writing the cost for the phone and the morning of christmas we put the coffins and let them in and get it and casting a hello. i thing about you stuff have created an oasis of com and key here, but they know it probably won't last long. outside infections are spreading fast. nato a round up of some other developments in the pandemic. britons prime minister boris johnson has suggested that people give the gift of a booster jab for christmas. the u. k reported another record of nearly 120000 new infections on thursday alone. the u. s. has loosened rules on health care workers.

1:17 pm
a closer look also on the show. semiconductors are in short supply around the world that has automakers rethinking their sourcing, especially as the new corona virus very and threatens more supply chain problems. hello, welcome to the show. i'm seen beardsley in berlin or supply chain issues have plague businesses for months. now, micro chips are among the items most desperately needed, and among those hardest to find, especially for automakers. even basic car models need at least 50 semi conductors. they control everything from gps to air conditioning even rear view mirrors, and not to mention safety and comfort features that you might find in more upscale cars. according to one estimate, 11000000 fewer cars were to be built in 2021. due to supply chain bottlenecks and that sums up to around $210000000000.00 in miss sales. now the vast majority of semiconductors are made in asia. that makes the u. s. and europe strongly dependent
1:18 pm
upon imports to get those ships. and so now many automakers are exploring partnerships which producers to make their own semiconductors. some experts, however say it's too little too late. they blame the industry for t shirts are short term planning and it's lack of investment. of more that i'm joined by reggie biswas, he's executive director and asia pacific chief economist at i h s. market where she could have you on the show. is it fair to say that these automakers were perhaps short sighted by not really securing their necessary supplies to something is an absolute vital component. i think what we've seen during the pandemic is something quite exceptional. and it's brought out these supply chain vulnerabilities for order made or makers, it hadn't been there in that kind of form before. i mean, what we've seen is lost production in 2021 of millions of order units. and that's meant that demand has been much greater than the ability to supply. so we're
1:19 pm
seeing a new kind of problem for the auto industry that they haven't seen in a similar way before. so i think they're reacting to that and of course it will take time and whether it's true their concept of building their own semiconductors plants, which is obviously a highly complicated area for them to move into. or another possibility which is being suggested by companies like intel, is that they will build factory specifically for the order industry to help alleviate some of those concerns about disruptions. and i think at a government level, we're also seeing a lot of action to try to reduce that vulnerability of supply chains. reduce the supply from asia in the u. s. for example, the u. s. government's pushing ahead with a chip act that's going to put in about $50000000000.00 us dollars to help ship
1:20 pm
makers build more facilities in the u. s. and in the e. u. a very similar projects underway to try to boost the production of chips within the e u. m to about 20 percent of total requirements. so these kind of actions are signaling that both companies and governments are trying to reduce t o supply chain vulnerabilities. and he won the league concern if i may interrupt them. so you just mentioned asia there. we've seen that china has just locked down an entire city. she on of 13000000 people. it's shown how seriously it's going to go against any sort of outbreak. china, of course, a major manufacturer for many, many companies. these supply problems are going to continue. is that fair to say? well, i think even leaving aside the situation in china, which obviously is very concerning and has a lot of potential implications for supply chains. if this were to spread more widely, but even even leaving that aside,
1:21 pm
this backlog in areas like semiconductor supply is still going to continue in to 2022. even if the situation are dependent might, improves through the year. so i think we are looking at a 2022 with continuing problems in the auto sector. and if on top of all of that depend emmett creates new waves and use plot tractions. then clearly the risk is that you have a whole new set of disruptions to supply chains, not only for semiconductors, but potentially for many of the areas of manufacturing that are critical for industry as well. so we are very much looking at those downside ris for the 2022 outlook if this omicron very and turns out to be a big disruptor, and we'll have to leave it there, a jeep as well with i just market. thank you very much. thank you. speaking of supply crunches, wholesale gas prices in europe briefly spike this week after
1:22 pm
a russian pipeline began reversing its supply to germany. russian president vladimir putin now says the move is not political, although it does can side with right coincide rather with rising tensions between moscow in the west. the europe was already facing a winter of high gas prices due to lower supplies. some now fear the tensions with russia are going to make things worse. guess from the jamar pipeline usually flows from here in siberia to germany, but flows had been falling since saturday. on tuesday, the gas stopped and began to flow back in the other direction. the more than 2000 kilometer long jamara pipeline links natural gas fields in siberia with poland and germany via bella rose. it's one of the major routes for russian guest to europe. some west on politicians and industry experts have accused russian president vladimir putin, of withholding deliveries to europe and mid political tensions over ukraine and not string to something that he denied during his annual news conference for the vol to
1:23 pm
him with by them, they lie all the time that they mix everything up. gas from supplies all are requesting gas volumes, under current contracts. and not only that, not right, it's also increasing the volume of war. uh, we mean ships that contract spokespeople for our w e and uni power, which among gas prompts, biggest gas by us and germany set the russian company was still meeting delivery obligations. but measurements show that gas volumes flowing through the m, our pipeline have been reversed. some western politicians believe pooty wants to put pressure on not string to it's another pipeline which is set to deliver gas from russia through the baltic sea, directly to germany. germany has not approved the pipeline yet. some experts believe the kremlin is deliberately reducing flows to drive up gas prices in europe, and speed up the approval process. experts warn that consumers in western europe
1:24 pm
need to brace for even higher prices. more cold weather in europe over the coming months is going to drive up demand. and i'm joined by hitting lawyers side. he's director of energy climate and resources at the raise your group, that's a political risk consultancy, and thanks for coming on the show. you know, russia says that it's meeting its obligations here at the same time, some in europe are crying foul. can you help us understand what is going on? it's thanks for letting me know. so one of the main problems is, of course, one size that we're meeting all the obligations. the other side is saying we're not having enough gas. so what's happening is gas is meeting probably it's minimum annual obligation, so they have long term contracts with customers in the u. and they are meeting that, but they're not sending any further gas. so if you want to have receive more gas because it's cold, for instance, or you're a customer who doesn't fully contract, it's annual gas supply, then it's hard to get that gas because i'm really isn't sending more gas in. it
1:25 pm
absolutely has to the moment. the question is, of course, whether it gas isn't sending the gas because it can't or because it doesn't want to that we're not entirely sure sure of. we don't really know where the gas form is sending all the gas. it can or where that is actually withholding. and that is sort of the mystery here in europe. problems, of course, the gas market is tight. we do need more gas and energy is coming from markets around the world by shipping to europe, but it would be good if it came to us from russia or so. europe says the 2 is playing politics here and says the same thing that the you is playing politics with north street to. is he not correct there? well, i mean, no seem to, and it's, but it says the notes from 110 years ago. they are highly political projects. you are linking to major consumer producer blocks together with the physical pipeline infrastructure. it is political by nature and this politics when it goes well, it's good, it's a big producer, consumer and it improves politics. but of course,
1:26 pm
when politics get sour, as they are now between russian europe and the west general over ukraine, for instance, which of course, is the gas trans, it routed traditionally, it was then as things get complicated and that is the issue now. yes, both sides are playing po takes. however, the approval process that has been put on hold is a commercial one. and this is important to keep in mind that the approval process with a bonus next are going to in germany, is a commercial process. and all stream to gas from has to comply with the european market rules and in its current form, it doesn't. so that is a separate process. but then of course, there is politics that the german government, the americans, brussels, they have become skeptical about the political liability of this pipeline. not just its commercial liability. or i think last time with your age group. thank you very much. thank you. and let's go now to some of the other global business
1:27 pm
stories making headlines. united airlines and delta have cancelled more than $200.00 christmas eve flights. they say the spread of the new oma tron variant is taking a toll on flight crews and ground personnel. the airlines are trying to reboot travelers as soon as possible. tick tock has surpassed google as the world's most popular website. that's according to cloud farrah tech from the tracks online activities. more than 1000000000 users sign onto scroll, tick, tock, monthly, mostly children and teenagers. tick tock was launched by china's bite dance intel has apologized for angering the chinese government after called on suppliers to avoid goods and services in the sheen john region. the united states, the european union and other countries, have accused china of a brutal crack down on the muslim league or minority and the use of force labor camps there. and finally tis the season when many indulged their sweet tooth, especially chocolate. and especially here in germany,
1:28 pm
it turns out that germans eat an average of 9 kilos of chocolate per year. that's about 90 traditional sized chocolate bars and back puts the country squarely in 1st place globally for chocolate consumption. close 2nd. the swiss. a christmas is the main season for chocolate. germany's chocolate ears have sold 160000000 chocolate santa's this year loan. all right, that's it for me. and the dw business team will be back in a little bit with more headlines in the meantime. fun is on line t w dot com slash business between beardsley, thanks for watching. ah
1:29 pm
1:30 pm
reactive in a clever way with a there. i'm david and this is climate change briggs, it's sex. happiness in 3 books. this is the book for you. you'll get smarter for free. dw books on youtube with women's bodies are pretty impressive when you think about it. a complex symphony of hormones means that women can theoretically conceive once a month. most mammals can only for pregnant a couple of times. a year. i find out more about why women can be proud
1:31 pm
of their bodies and how they can back suppose their own super powers. i'm in good shape with shame, right? like a dime for some days, you just don't feel like you are shining bright. the passion is familiar, ah, many women don't even need to check their calendar. it's as though the body has its own in a alarm clock. a few days before your period begins, the food cravings set in. what makes us need to snack as though our lives depend on it. we ask doctor rica, ham man, a gynecologist and nutritionist in high so met
1:32 pm
him. yeah. to speak for m dot on. we get food cravings, because our hormones fluctuate during our cycle, aba before the immense was just before menstruation starts estrogen levels drop again up, find a eastridge, intends to rain in your appetite, heat em them while progesterone, which is relatively high and the 2nd half of the cycle makes you hungry. oh, that's at the i didn't petite thought on and, and a lot of women get food cravings, as a result you, i'm for you to fall into office. the highest will now hm. on in spite of another aspect is the happy hormone, serotonin. level to lean towards the end of the cycle. serotonin levels, drums, yahoo, high calorie foods like candy and snacks with a high sugar content can cause brief spikes and our happy hormones and boost our mood hooks, homeowner and stagnant on some quotas go through again. but when the craving is hate, it's a good idea to avoid candy and chocolate and reach for not so dried fruit, which also boost our happy hormones. but snacking every now and again isn't the end
1:33 pm
of the world. although proper elberton authorities of our body is firing on all cylinders and because of that, because it's processing so much, we have a higher basal metabolic rate and are therefore burning more calories. machaela beam for power. hm. well, by although this is different for all women and doesn't mean that we can all eat as much as we like at the end of cycle lanka says sick losses, thus a shame. but if we do find we've put on weight during our cycle, it might be nothing to do with snacking, but rather porter retention is the thought of i. estrogen can lead to water retention. and because progesterone levels are relatively high and the 2nd half of our cycle, our tissue and blood vessels are more permeable fees, which makes it easier for water to be absorbed by the tissue, and it will come back use for caffeine. jenkins. coffee also leads to water retention. so cut back at this point to comment because it might sound strange,
1:34 pm
but the solution is to drink lots of water because that has a dire reddick of fat. that's what you have to do. a lot of money. malcolm's little . you can reduce water retention by drinking lots. what about bloating as of the alphabet about was elk bloody is also a result of hormonal changes. it's another symptom of res, progesterone. in the 2nd half of the cycle. it inhibits boa motility, which gives bacteria more time to process nutrients to digest. i informed dana phone so that in terms of attrition, it's a good idea to have a high fiber diet to boost digestion. danish exists all ballast of christ and again, drinking lots. if you're eating a loan of fiber, such as whole grain prod, out of raw fruit and vegetables, and drawing brutal dates, dried fakes, pools. musa. yup. i'll talk most or they also boost digestion dealing. the ford also on diet and exercise apple 12 fleeing on fish,
1:35 pm
owls question giving. that's how to deal with bloating, but what about cramps? they can be awful, but we can also do something about them. then of course, their stock until i would always say to women her suffer badly from menstrual cramps. they should boost their magnesium intake in the form of whole grain on the harness as well, which are very high and mac glossy. i'm on a tight fuel magneer. ocoee of yahoo rocco is also good of the fun of my natural looking to see which foods you can integrate most easily into your diet. also, the muscle thought of spear went on. it's also worth avoiding animal fats if you're prone to period pain, brought because there's what's called erica donek acid in animal fats, which can exacerbate inflammation and pain of madison thought on, come the antidote, or omega 3 fatty acid muscles. and in the omega i've had saw on, instead of reaching for painkillers, it's worth trying to increase omega 3 in take in the form of nuts and linseed oil.
1:36 pm
for example. this often contains added d ha, a fatty acid with many health benefits. nutritionists recommend $200.00 milligrams of it a day is also advisable to avoid alcohol. it has a dehydrating effect and is likely to worse and cramps. coffee is also unlikely to help. it makes blood vessels contract, which also exacerbates cramps. it also inhibits iron absorption and many women who tend to get heavy periods often have an iron deficiency because eisen of telephone photo. we kind of saw iron from animal product better. so i've got, if you're vegetarian or vegan, there are plenty of foods that are iron rich such as pulses and oatmeal of rotten if you eisen and titan, green t black t, dairy products, and coffee inhibits iron absorption. women who menstruate need approximately 15 milligrams of ion a day. vitamin c helps the body absorb it better. so to sum up,
1:37 pm
eating carefully can help you manage your menstrual cycle, and so can taking it easy and relaxing. when you have your period, the bodies working extra hard, so be kind to it be male bodies are put under a lot of strain during pregnancy. so does that mean the younger, the better? well, some women are starting families later in most o, e c, d states. mothers are almost 30 when they 1st give birth. our report has have been asking themselves, is there an ideal age to have children? let's start by breaking down the science behind baby making. first, some facts and figures,
1:38 pm
a woman's fertility changes as she ages and not for the better. the american society for reproductive medicine says, women's best reproductive years are with, that's not just because the number of next decreases with age and the quantity of the acts that are left to kill rates. one important change in this respect, the number of genetic abnormalities in a woman's x increases as she h if so from a biological point of view i time my pregnancy perfectly, hold on a sec, eula. actually, the belief that after certain age of fertility suddenly plummets is the major misconception. research a gene twinkie discovered that most studies on the subjects faith data from french records that are hundreds of years old. but then life of very hard, there were more of a lot of diseases and medical treatment was pretty primitive. no wonder feel women
1:39 pm
were getting pregnant under certain age. more recent studies painted different picture, new data show that at age 27, the chance of a woman getting pregnant within a year is 86 percent. by age 37, this chances only dropped to 82 percent. so there's actually very little difference in terms of fertility. okay, okay. maybe anna. but research has also shown that women over 35 are also at more risk for other complications like giving birth prematurely, or immediate interventions when they give birth. older mothers are also more likely to experience a ruptured uterus or develop diabetes. sure, there's no denying that being older when you give birth puts additional stress in their body. but there could be benefits to a 2016 study. the u. s. found that women who are older when they had their 1st
1:40 pm
child were more likely to lift to the age of 19. so delaying motherhood might even help you to live longer. all right, all right, so maybe we shouldn't just look at the age of the mother to be come to think of it . an expert i spoke with told me we encouraged a lot of unnecessary fear by always talking about childbearing risks. when women are past a certain age and speaking of fear, mental health and emotional stability are also really important during pregnancy and childbirth. according to one psychologist i talked to feeling like you are ready to be a mom is key. it's much more important than the number of years that you have lived for me. it took some time to develop the calmness and confidence i needed to be a mom waiting allow me to approach motherhood with a state of mind that i just couldn't have been my only friends. along with
1:41 pm
a certain amount of financial security that maturity was the big plus when the time came. well, that sounds good anna, and it seems to have worked out well for you. however, a few years ago, a canadian study found significantly higher rates of postpartum depression among women who gave birth between 35 in 44 when compared to younger women. there are many reasons this can happen, of course. one reason is that statistically, as a woman grows older, more complications can occur during pregnancy and childbirth. but it's also possible that higher rates of depression among older mothers, i, biological phenomenon tied to age and child berry. that's interesting. although post natal depression is fairly common regardless of the mother's age. so
1:42 pm
waiting isn't necessarily a bad idea. and i found another interesting aspect. according to a danish study, all the mothers are less likely to subject their kids physical and verbal abuse. and their children have fewer behavior, although that certainly doesn't mean that all young moms i impatient, all won't buy parenting. i felt ready to be a mom, even if back then i didn't really know what that involved. well, raising a good human being as always a tough job, no matter what age you are. that's true. and having support and a good social network are crucial. and by the way, women should be able to decide for themselves whether they one children or not. they should be equally free to decide how they want to give birth. unfortunately, not every woman has the advantage of being able to do that. and sometimes
1:43 pm
