oh, come to tech, told me about hackers, paralyzing tire societies, computers than elsewhere. you and governments that go crazy for your data. we explain how these technologies work, how they can go in for. and that's how they can also go terribly. watch it now on youtube. ah, few contracts, few customers, fewer employees. that's a situation that many companies find themselves in since the pandemic in this makes program, we want to show you what people are doing to get out of the crisis. welcome

to our new coven. 19 special. with the can in germany, 50000 employees are missing in the hospitality industry. most of them found new jobs and other sectors. during the pandemic, our semen gra time is the how specialty. but the head chef is forced to prepare it by himself. during locked down many kitchen staff left to make up with a shortage. the restaurant now opened later on sundays. to save on the number of shifts. the hotel is hiring new staff and trainees from all over the world. though to left or not coming back during lockdown, they found jobs and other sectors i spoke to from there from our fall line, it's really noticeable. we've had to change our schedules and i do use our, our car manual home in our kitchen. we couldn't everything fresh,

so we can't offers many options as we blank. and i have to rely more on inexperienced staff. that's the problem with dealing with. and i don't know any kitchens that aren't looked leather staff well, but we have to somehow make the best of the situation for him with moving both of us, all of them off for the hotels owner. the staff shortage means a loss in revenue. one we can do, he often has to turn down large events and he doesn't do weddings anymore. even though the demand is there. ya mortishaw, why? frenzy for, and what happens if there are regular guess the quote been coming to us for years. and we, i tell them, i'm sorry, and we just can't accommodate you on barclays. that would be terrible. binda we were, i'm really, sally. so are my employees all it that we just can't offer certain things at the moment or due to the staffing situation? i thought, i thought, honest a name could. shortly after russia invaded ukraine,

the hotel took refugees, offering free rooms to ukrainian women who had fled the war. 5 of them now look at the hotel. it's a chance to start a new life in germany. lilia ruby is now in charge of the breakfast. buffet. she has big dreams. now crazy whoo. yeah. i was a cook in ukraine, but of course i didn't prepare german dishes, floors, and emerald, but i'd like to get to know the recipes and start cooking them, which some yeah, sure. we mainly have men. why came the kitchen in this matter? and natasha. this machine, i'd like to change that and one day isn't a headshot myself. in the interim. yeah. but could you, i would check for one. i'm can you see the hotels executive assistant is the boss's right hand man. it's usually a desk job, but now he has to help out wherever he's needed. it's the only way to cope with the staff shortage after a 5th of the hotels employees gave their notice. if i'm wrong,

i'm jumping in no matter where i like it and i can't imagine spending the whole day sitting in my office in front of a computer from 9 to 5. i need the change of pace and lots of our staff are doing the same. helping each other out to retain staff and attract new employees. the hotel ensures that everyone gets 2 days off after 5 days on the job. they're supposed to avoid overtime, and at the end of the year, everyone will get a share of the profits. as well as bonuses of up to 2500 euros for people who've been there at least 5 years. the head chef hopes the measures will attract new staff. should i, healer clearing the of it, may be. some of the employees who quit during the pandemic will come back. maybe they'll be those people who say, you know, working retail really isn't for me. gastronomy was not so bad. it was actually quite nice. i've been in this business for almost 37 years. i don't think i'd have

stayed so long if it were the worst job in the world to go from civil career. in the meantime, he's doing his best to help the next generation of chefs. as a member of the examination board of the brandenburg chamber of commerce, he supports apprentices wherever he can. another way of fighting back against the staff shortage. next to morocco. for the past 6 months, morocco's bodies have been open in june and july alone, over 3000000 tourists came to visit the north african country. all visitors had to prove that they were tested and vaccinated. ah ha. morocco is a country with rich cultural traditions that attract tourists in droves and tourism is good for the economy. in morocco, it wants accounted for 10 percent of g d. p. historic cities. traditional crafts

and beautiful architecture have made this north african country a highly desirable destination from the desert to the coastline. that is until the corona vars pandemic plunged the tourism sector into an unexpected crisis . the government made some tough decisions, but although they were bad for business, they were the right ones, says the secretary general of the national tourism confederation in casablanca. the mark up here, this is or x time aqua morocco made some very brave decisions that they perhaps to the detriment of certain economic indicators. but they were the right decisions for the health and safety of americans. and anyone on moroccan soil focus, of course, on some of the famous jemma elfin are square and marrakech is normally a bustling tourist magnet. during covey times it was practically deserted. nationwide, the tourism industry lost the equivalent of about $9000000000.00 during the

pandemic. vulnerable businesses like hotels received support. $220000000.00 have been allocated so far. first and foremost, to save jobs. now, there are high hopes that things will pick up again, citron restaurant, global, that of course, i knew that it's a global approach. the pandemic that's now enabling a sustainable economic recovery wrong. typically we're seeing a powerful resurgence in the tourism industry and no doubt about it is a the settler crease said dorothy in marrakech, the tourists have indeed returned official statistics report that foreign exchange revenue increased by a 173 percent compared to last year. the covert infection rate appears to be stable as confirmed during an interview in august with dr. fif more lay said one of morocco's decision makers on corona virus matters. halbrook him in hell not ship. according to yesterday's statistics,

we had 1600 active cases in june. last year there were 2010000 sitting here. the virus is barely spreading any more. and as you can see, lots of tourists have returned to d tolan not to make moroccan tourism more internationally competitive. it's joined number of countries and introducing an electronic these are is now less paperwork at the board of the immigration. morocco has also simplified it's closed rules for travelers can nurse for those wishing to travel to morocco used in eden negative p. c. r test. even if they had a vaccine pass. now we've decided that people with the vaccine pass. i don't need a chassis when she's jo, for the pandemic, wasn't all bad for business. domestic tourism actually increased dramatically in 2021. it rose by 69 percent with foreign tourists now returning to visit a numbers are expected to hit record levels. was so feel

a little bit insecure. her we like since tourism was coming back to more foreigners morocco's opened the borders loudly drew her. yeah. or people from all over the world. so we're yeah, so i've read from another wave of, of it. i had him, neural any new surgeon infections would also hit the roughly 2 and a half 1000000. traditional crafts people here at the start of the pandemic. some felt it was unfair that the tourism sector was given higher priority when it came to government handouts aimed at safeguarding jobs. but they to recognize that their income depends on a healthy tourism industry. and how the tourists feel about traveling. are they worried about a new wave of infections? album, mother isn't. i don't think people have had all 3 shots need to worry. okay, so yeah, i think covered 19 is here to stay and we'll keep spreading from just another

command and we just have to get used to it and learn to live with our we're dorner, shaw, his opinion appears to be widespread. and that certainly giving morocco's tourism industry, others are people all over the world are trying to recover from the economic damage caused by lockdown. i reported a mako acoya took 3 young nigerian carpenter is trying to rebuild her business. ah, burglar ron's, these carpentry shop with her dad and doing so well. when covered heats the business reality changed, including clothes in a carpentry academy for goals, a project she is passionate about. well, committed to delivering quality furniture for her clientele. bees with cove id sills decreased, but she had workers to pay cars and we had to felicia down the dallas for lockdown

. so that's a fully shut down. and everything bought me one particular bon on lessening political doing that. her isn't turned on was to have sars minova the one me i didn't get paid. i curse if i had to go good soon and on what it was, more of this just get through this, this of why of this get to the survey and of the teaching part ended. the couldn't teach anybody, nobody could come out to learn at that point. so it was just more survival covered was horrible. dusty the mean, you know, at the beginning, classical video was terrible. nobody was thinking about buying furniture or so at that point. however, more people began to work from home business also moved on line a little respite. at least when you're home you tend to see all the things are over at your house. you know, you're so far as not so good anymore. so people are starting to get so close again . then there's the workstation and everybody wants their workstation from home. so

we had to, well, you have to adapt. so we had to start doing more work tables to our grades. our whole though the academy dream is now stored. 22 year old adela, an intern, and university student is glad to be here. given bull was some hope on inspiring younger female carpenters. a car, a scene of all 4000. can i go through to just leave my fil, filed frank f, as in papa in it are more about making do my hands than sit down somewhere and half do defalco integrity. google experience to decline in her customer bees as less people wanted furniture or had plans for long term furniture. but it give them time to utilize wisely available resources. corporate tachi sauce managers be closer. we did not know how prices are skyrocketing on

every farm and on. so we just launched our we have to manage the best we can still optimized clemency. and then put, the outer logo says a dream for the academy is not entirely lost as she plans to have more girls in turning lenin to become carpenters like her and grow her customer reach across teeth and internationally in some sectors experienced a bit during lockdown like the book trade in columbia, that's ironic, considering that according to the o. e. c. d. columbia has one of the lowest reading levels worldwide, on average. colombians used to read fewer than 2 books a year. but that changed during the pandemic. at the age of $22.00, in the thick of lockdown, and stuck at home, gabriella potter started reading books and thoroughly too,

with notes in the margins and sections underline. so she wouldn't forget anything. and that was made of bank verger clock. hello. you know in 2020 i think i read about 40 books. i see. and i love me 202021. i read 60 here in those me in ring just journals. $35.00 according i, and so far this year, i've read $48.00 or 2 lead of having studied mathematics. gabriella potter loves numbers. but during the pandemic, she developed a passion for literature. she doesn't keep the books on shelves. she stashes them in plastic storage bags to protect them. mostly books from independent publishers. jennifer agreeable, as i found way was i find these publishes some exciting which are more quick is i'm more than what glad cornea is on their unique books. if created a community of readers such as kitchen, oklahoma, my others such

a passion for detail that i haven't found anywhere else. and they have especially good customer service. kimberly you talk to real people, that's what sets them apart on orlando. there are 70 independent publishers in columbia. they're little known among the general public. but during lockdown they posted record sales, publisher ed guy blanco thinks that's down to their flexibility in his as he could . ok. we're always struggling actually. we're always trying to reach our readers in different ways and in this and then his empathy, right. so in the totally unexpected hammond the global pandemic, we will prepare a until now and then that mean our job, easier in his brit alcohol going up on the regular oil books from these independent publishers give a platform to new voices on the colombian literature scene. but during lockdown, customers couldn't browse in bookstores. sales mostly happened through social media

to lit daughter foods. you know, we did it get it worked really well for many. it was a lifeline or not because it put them in direct contact with their readers or through posts on instagram, facebook and even twitter. or that's how i sold books was ridiculous or not for a major garage? yes it is that transaction commerce, yet bookstores that were able to sell directly online, also did well during lockdown. readers could even communicate with each other on the stores. websites giving recommendations or reviews is us yourself and into the surprising thing. was that for bookstores, operating on a national or even international level, that own sales went up despite the fact that the doors were close, a strength of several. and we weren't expecting that a social networks also helped, but our that was, i see that this was the only thing that we've dalia. the selection in this bookstore comes from independent publishers. it mostly sells political books about

critical thinking and social movements. i don't predict like, well, the people behind these publishing houses, let's say they're not interested in making a profit. plaza cape was, was got nancy sacrifice on money and to get lots of books into circulation to which a lot of people say more and more ciocca, who's the, all these great books behind me form what we call our independent corner or dep indented gabriella part i started reading as a child. her favorite book is gargoyle by andrew davidson for her books or an alternative to the internet. yeah, my letter as, as ellis, i'm in fact i've noticed how addictive social media can be and that i need to distance myself from. it does it come with that end result meant that fucker love afloat, but it really helps to have a book in my hand. just don't be reaching for my fine. go ahead on learning think i don't do it. i know it's cliche, but it really does help push it. but oh, see agile out in one thing. and to feed her healthy new habit,

she needs lots of new books and she's keen to buy lots more if nothing else to support independent publishers. ah, and now to mexico, 1600000 people there are suffering from long cove it. but the mexican government isn't shelling out enough money to treat the health consequences. her my raymore fell ill with coven 19 in august 2020. and she still suffering from symptoms now, for a long time, many of the doctors that she consulted simply didn't believe her. the 39 year old had to spend a lot of money seeing specialists until finally she was diagnosed with chronic fatigue and your logical disorder. and muscle pain in that mid there, malaria glare to for my entire body was shaking anatomy. and just walking to the

bathroom was a huge undertaker. i arrived completely exhausted, a shower, sitting down in bed. i still have days where a shower sitting down because of exhaustion era. her partner takes care of most of the housework. although myra has made a good recovery, she still needs help with many every day tasks. her breakfast consists of a cocktail of drugs and she's by no means the only one. at least she has a partner to help. many in mexico feel left alone with their problems. says are medina also has long covered after losing both his job and his partner? he set up his self help group or more nautical monique air. no one's talking about these things about what can happen, and so your family partner, friends and others, and start to feel skeptical. so and think you just imagining a dinner element, what is good of that could be assessing, been down below group on facebook now has 6000 members. although an estimated

1600000 people in mexico are suffering from long covert. the government has not made any funds available for examinations or treatment, says amadine as group works to raise awareness of the problem, particularly among government officials and departments. medical doctor giorgio fine uti believes that the apparent lack of interest among politicians has more to do with the health service, not having the capacity to deal with the problem. eric, one or 3rd law, see all of these patients really need to be referred to the relevant health care systems and they've been but those institutions, they just aren't in a position to deal with all the problems that arise from this illness goes a line for them either mexico's public health institutions say they have treated 878000 people for post coded problems and have

a 188 facilities that offer comprehensive rehabilitation. psychologist marta lopez who takes care of long covert patients, assured us that multi disciplinary medical teams have been created as well as online therapy to target the problem about their, their, at their grad, a mask. one thought that valley apart from providing more medical consultation with these types of patients, if a long covert rehabilitation courses have also been carried out, all that kinda spicy causes are accessible to all your patients can simply join in from home. well, the next day that i saw the course of but the government is still refusing to recognise long covered as an illness. that means that public health bodies can't write patients of sick. myra has no health to be closer to the university where she lexus and psychology. even so the one our daily commute, combined with the teaching is tough. it's 3 times

a strenuous for her as it would be for a healthy person. and the strain is exacerbating her symptoms when not islam is not, but it's a little you're no longer the same person and that's hard to understand and to cope with it each day a fresh sized because you know, your life wasn't like this before. but that during the sickness and everything suddenly changed like you like and now you can no longer live without hope from others. oh, do you have a question about the corona virus assigns, edited derek williams, gives you the latest research and analysis. sent derrick and emailed. i writing to cover producer at d. w dot com this week, his answering this question from seth underwood. oh, is the pandemic now claiming only as many lives as a bad flu season? oh, a lot of experts hate comparing influenza to cove. it because it paints the current

epidemiological picture with a very broad brush and because there are so many vague factors involved in trying to nail down the data, starting with the fact that reporting on cobra 19 mortality has been really spotty in many places and, and complicated by factors like light, clear attribution after all, just because someone is testing positive for the corona virus, when they die, it doesn't necessarily mean the virus is what killed them, especially if their elderly patients. um, similar problems apply to defining flu mortality. many of its victims aren't killed directly by infections with the viruses that cause influenza. but instead by the pneumonia that getting flu can lead to okay, i got at least some of the car, the outs out of the way. and you all know now how much gas work is involved,

but let's see if we can come up with some kind of an answer to your question. based on the data that we do have to start with flow mortality according to the world health organization in the years leading up to the pandemic. influenza killed between 29650000 people annually. and really bad years. therefore, around 650000 people died of it. now cove, it, i added up the w h o statistics for weekly corona virus, deaths in 2022 and came up with around 850000 for the 1st 6 months of this year. if you double bad for the fall calendar year, then it would add up to a prediction of around $1700000.00 deaths due to coven in 2022. so roughly 3 times as many as

a really bad year for flu. this is of course, over simplified and kind of cheating because cobra 19 waves are, are dynamic and they're ongoing and they're unpredictable. um, you might have noticed on that graph, for instance, that the most recent statistics show the global death count from the disease is currently lower than at any other time since the beginning of the pandemic. since last april, cobra has only been killing between around 10017000 people world wide every week. it's a positive trans that is at least partly due to higher levels of immunity and populations due to vaccination, previous infection or both. but. but even if that positive trend were to hold steady in the future,

we'd still be looking at the corona virus causing at least as many annual deaths as the number attributed to flew in a really severe outlier year. and probably more, boom in the next program will show you how school children from around the world are getting back to school of student teachers and parents. prepare until then. bye bye. ah ah, with

ah, with to the point a strong opinions. clear positions, international perspective. it's nothing short of a route. ukraine's 2 across the counter offensive, his expelled russian troops from a large sway of territory in the northeast of ukraine. at lightning speed,
