of inc, on home sick, a sagal as will i and i don't know if i had known that the boat would be bad, small. i never would have gone on the trail. i would not have put myself and my paris in that danger. who caught it? the theme of myrtle thought he was leave who love unsung to the hospital on the liberty of the give them i had serious problems on a personal level and i was unable to live there, but it went and got it. you want to know their story. you so my grants clarified and reliable information for my grants. ah, did a neighborhood volunteer group and measure it? many spaniards ran errands and organized food for those in need during the pandemic . they were honored by the e u parliament for their efforts. welcome to the cove at 90 in special

report long cove. it can lead to severe mental health problems. we talked to psychiatrist leo share about just how severe and why plus, how dangerous is the so called twin demick, a simile tiniest, wave of covey, 19 and influenza infections. and can it be prevented? but 1st, we visit a group of graffiti artists in zimbabwe. damn murals, tell the stories of women and girls during the pandemic. at the studio in zimbabwe capital herrera graffiti artists are working on concept to help stimulate debate on social issues made worse by the pandemic. out there focuses on problems affecting women and girls. they 1st

visualize their ideas with sketches on paper and on the computer before they said to work on the murals or as in san every imagination of our future and re imagination of our contemporary life. and also, i'm going back to ox, additional knowledge systems, you know, and there's been a lot of getting the comp time to realize that. and they, we, we, we took halves or took conclusions that were used like, like 200 is ago branded is a good that have been passed them through that through generation. so that showed us on the importance of traditional knowledge system. the graffiti artists have been painting, murals on the streets of some of her are, is poorest neighborhoods. their imagery incorporates the faces of influential women . the hope is to inspire young women and girls who have been negatively affected by

the pandemic. in zimbabwe, the number of teen pregnancies rose sharply during the lockdown. over 4000 girls did not return to school. when they reopened in early 2021. girls and women's rights advocates say the arts are an effective way to communicate and to spark change based on the learnings and experiences with head out from causes 19 the needs to be a concerted investment in developing messages that are relevant threat messages that i informed by experience and evidence message is that hi me as the power of the us. both the visual and performing arts to propel messages around goals writes out to propel messages that ensure the protection of girls to also are put forward messages. i've had guardian sexual into productive health rights and information.

the pandemic is also shaped. zimbabwe is urban street culture. through the fashion collective fabric party, young people are exploring issues around identity that took a back seat during the pandemic. that in the car with he said down hell, but enough time to look into the internet and so as going on, so we'll call bless ourselves in his face. it was yes that i know by now after that lead out we identify or how do we create an identity for them? by wednesday, kosa fabric party is developed into an art movement that brings together graffiti artists and fashion designers to explore new possibilities for collaboration. when people spend 2 years log down when missed that element of a community in element with way can call up on it and work as a collective. people used to do that through covered who did it online. but soon

after college people realized the importance of college. what i soon learned corner to west. at the height of the pandemic, the artists raised awareness of coven 19 by painting murals, encouraging people to follow health regulations like wearing masks and social distancing. they drew on the star power of influencers, who they painted wearing masks like the artists planned to keep working with the concept to spark conversations about what humanity can learn from the pandemic. o respiratory infections increased dramatically during the cold season. that was even tree before the curtain of iris appeared on the scene. the influenza virus in particular can lead to severe illness. together with the rising number of caves, 19 infections experts, a warning of the so called twin demick. but it's possible to take preventive measures. hm. the

global number of new infections and deaths due to coven 19 has studied since the end of august for the past several months. the v. a for and be a 5 on the chron sub variance have driven most new cases. but scientists say a number of worrisome new subtypes are also fueling the pandemic in the us, but also other places. they include 3 types that together now account for around $1.00 and $7.00 newly reported cases there in europe. a lineage detected 1st in asia has grown and prominence in the u. k, which has a top notch surveillance system. experts are tracking the possible rise of still others. and indian scientists and authorities across the globe are chasing data on a troublesome variant dubbed x b, b and singapore estimate show it could now be causing over half of all cases

as we come into the winter time. now we are starting to see further increases in size, curvy to activity, and so, and part of that is being driven obviously by these different on the cron variance and another infection as compound and concerns the flu. earlier in the pandemic measures that slowed the spread of the corona virus also helped people avoid getting infected with other pathogens, like those causing the flu. influenza acts as kind of e to is a respiratory infection. so the measures that will put in place to reduce cov, it transmission also impacted influenza transmission. so when we reduced our mixing with people when we reduced our international travel that also reduced the ability of influenza to spread. but as the urgency of the pandemic subsides and measures relax, flu cases are also rising again. both diseases pose

a particular threat to groups like the elderly, or people with underlying health conditions and also to health care workers. though they may not be an elevated risk of severe disease. if they fall sick, then they're also increases absenteeism from work which has important implications and for the workforce in its ability to the health care system to operate. and of course, there's also potential risks that some health co workers can infect their patients as well. in an effort to head off the worrisome scenario of a twin demick during the upcoming winter healthcare authorities from the world health organization and other institutions are now spreading. a simple message, timely vaccination against both diseases can save lives. so far lung cove, it has been associated primarily with extreme exhaustion and who pain that research

is also wanting. if hidden risks, more and more suffering are experiencing depression and even suicidal thoughts, we talked to psychiatrist leadership about the development of the fisher can long of an increased risk of suicide. is there any data or evidence to support this? that i know a logical data is supported in between long corbett and suicide. however, many symptoms of long corporate eyes. this actually is to say that the restore is sidled behavior, for example, many bit bogus long call with a depressed. it has been suggested that at least 50000000 people at least 50000000 people around the world of his long corporate developed depression. and in those a depression is associated with suicide on behavior. how might long lead to suicide

of thoughts? many studies over many years had shown as a physical pain, a little suicide. they'll behavior. it depends on the on individual perceptions. some people who have pretty severe chronic pain, i'm not suicidal while some people is relatively mild and may become suicidal. also at people's lives long corner, it frequently has cognitive impairments. and many studies have shown that quote impediments. i so say that this flu side, they'll be it, could it also related to new logic who changes in the brain after record infection is that our suggestions are called wireless ne and use in europe, inflammation, and inflammation in the brain. and it may affect more behavior and

obviously a physical house. so yes, it is, and they here is a long call problems. i feel like a neuro biological changes in the brain. in other words, corbett may add coil load, corbett may, has, and neuro biological basis. so what does all of this mean for policy makers? what needs to be done to address the situation? first, i would suggest that more research needs to be done if it's possible that long. corbett is not a really one disease when it's not really one condition, it may be a group or a medical illness. it is very possible, obviously, honest, and may just need to make sure is it always long for it and get an appropriate medical help. and obviously psychological health. thank you. and if you,

in the corona virus pandemic, and the ukraine will have made it clear how crisis prone global trade is, supply chains collapsing well, transport costs are rising dramatically. as a result, more and more companies are bringing back home production that was previously outsourced to other countries like china. the offshoring of past decades is turning into new ensuring as these 2 examples from argentina and straight. in december, 20 twenties, between the 1st and the 2nd wave of coven 19, the american giant whirlpool and its president for latin america. the brazilians, while carlos breaker, decided to set up a washing machine factory in argentina and export from there after a 20 year hiatus. the plant was inaugurated this october con local, should committed that up and with the emergence of the pandemic,

it has. and with the political repercussions that we are facing today, she has a need to make sure that the supply chain will not be broken if something happens far away, has increased us at all. like at dina, this minister for the past few decades, the phenomenon of offshoring took place by which industries from america migrated to china. during the pandemic, there was a shortage of freight, and with the war fuel became more expensive. the new buzzword is near shoring. an opportunity has opened up for those manufacturing nearby. not they'll do the diesel pit. i have no doubts about that to should i lou. but to do this, we also have to generate not just productions, but knowledge, sand to ask that by manufacturing here in argentina is that we're bringing knowledge potential. what they sal, this is how competitiveness is created. see, are competitive desi. that is not only about cause it's is meant to put coastal whirlpool had just $160.00 employees in argentina. now there are $500.00. the

company invested $52000000.00 to produce $300000.00 washing machines a year and exports 70 percent to brazil. and the rest to south america, it is also reinforced its presence in mexico to supply the united states. quite a few argentine companies are taking advantage of near shoring. like ceramics, alberta, t. it's owner martine rappa. lini says that between 2019 and today it is quint toppled its exports to chile, bolivia, paraguay, and uruguay. their blossom afforded them. we have pushed hard on chinese and european products with some targeting lower value products. and europe targeting higher value ones, yield opa up and under a lot of road to them are short on that de la, those to war. and the pandemic had a big impact on the increase in logistics costs, and also on inflation. because they've been lame, flashy on. according to rap illini, european,

ceramic companies have doubled the production costs due to the increase in energy prices. gina, in china has had an impact, but the greatest impact has been on the logistics level. the containers that were around $2000.00 before the pet damage, now cost $20000.00 to $25000.00. those prices have dropped again, but they're still much more expensive. but as you, but while it would your mccardle latin american countries with some industrial development like mexico, brazil and argentina can take advantage of export opportunities in a region traditionally focused on the extraction of raw materials. the economist in university professor leandro mora from scene, analyzes the phenomenon of near shoring local. it is all legal viewed as a reconfiguration of global value chain, only, whether it be near showing or french showing started before the pandemic cases. what did the pandemic do? was it accelerated, everything because there was an increase in demand post pandemic,

one that supply chain, we're not prepared to respond to more often seen. so to study by the inter american development bank that confirms that latin america could replace 10 percent of chinese exports to america, argentina must reduce its 83 percent inflation. but despite everything, whirlpool believes in its new factory. but they also hope that the cost of freight drops after the pandemic. i'm the newest on, on, even, it's not him yet. and pre pandemic levels are mas endless, but it's not at the peak, like it was during the pandemic. bedroom at the market has restrictions and thought and the restrictions are very harsh was 40. so can that is why investment in year shoring is continuing to accelerate. yesterday, august, the pandemic is still having an effect on the global economy. oh, do you have any questions about k, the 19? ah, science correspondence, derek williams has fiances based on the latest research and analysis. right, to k,

the producer at d, w dot com this week he answers the question, does the data show that natural immunity is stronger? than vaccination. oh, in berlin, at least it seems like every one and their mother currently either. has coven 19, has just had it, or expects to have it soon, regardless of their immune status. i personally know people who've been vaccinated for times who subsequently tested positive for the virus. and i also know people who've had the disease too, or even 3 times even people who are up to date on their vaccination. some alma chron sub variance are simply really, really infectious. and the fact that coven 19 is so widespread in so many places

has made it impossible to provide simple answers to questions like whether natural immunity is stronger than vaccination. after all, most of us in 2022 now have our own long, highly personal history with sars covey. 2 and the vaccines that were developed to fight it. but even in the past, it was hard to nail down and, and compare the power of immune responses. some studies conducted mostly during the delta era, suggested that disease induced immunity was more powerful against that variant than vaccine induced immunity. was that there were others that found just the opposite. um, there were also one showing that the 2 were roughly comparable. the rule of thumb before our micron swept end was sort of that being infected was roughly equivalent

to a single dose of vaccine. but since it hit last winter, those variables have changed. the average person and many parts of the globe, well by now knowingly or unknowingly, likely have been exposed to our micron and it's family of sub variance repeatedly. it sounds unclear, i know, but there are things that the experts do pretty much all agree on. one is that attaining some level of prior immunity to coven 19, whether it's through vaccination, or, or through infection? that that reduces the chances that you'll catch it in the near future or catch it again in the near future, as the case may be. a 2nd. is that if you do get coven 19 after previous exposure or vaccination, then it's a lot less likely to be severe. i'm number 3. is that most

experts say that people who've been both vaccinated and infected. so what's called hybrid immunity, that they in general exhibit more durable and more potent levels of immune protection. and. and finally, there's one last point where the pros agree, any prior am unity. they say whether it's gained through infection ordained through vaccination, will provide some future protection from severe outcomes m making face mask, some protective clothing, collecting food and distributing it to those in need. volunteers from the neighborhood association, so must tribble and madrid lend to hand wherever they were needed. during the pandemic and created a social network. the association received an award from the

e parliament for its work. we went to meet some of the volunteers of familiar walk for leah on yet to morrow. as she makes her way into her neighborhood association during lockdown, paula meadows became the headquarters for locals, who rallied together to help their fellow neighbors. meatica. i thought they created an organization called so most 3 bu we are tribe. and as i said, i don't, many people are. we began by coordinating all the help that was needed and our neighborhood went out such as shopping for vulnerable, elderly people, going to the pharmacy or walking their pants. one day a company contacted us and said that they had a batch of dairy products that they couldn't use. look at a, they asked if we wanted them, and we said yes, bring them over. you know that they did it by and then we distributed the milk and yogurt and so on for another fame. so yes, yeah, come on before. so,

julio came to some us 3 blue every morning to help out before going to work. as a lab technician in the gregorio madeline your hospital at the height of the pandemic. the modern young was overflowing with more them of loving 100 covered patients with hundreds more turning up every day. looking mild man, what impressed me was the silence. the manion hospital is normally allowed and lively place, always bustling with activity. but during the pandemic, it was his client as a cemetery, and there was a kind of horror we'd never experienced before. even many people were deeply affected by what happened then. and still r. okay, though, i worked in the emergency unit and we go, we didn't have enough face masks when the pandemic hit a mascot. yes, there just wasn't enough material for them. yeah. what again of that november 30th, another founding member of so most 3 bo is out to the ana pup. she decided to act

after hearing of shortages of face masks and protect of clothing for health and essential workers. i mean, i was tellico stood up and i've always loved sewing ago. so i found some tutorials and how to make face masks a may put out. this was our last i, when i used my daughter's bed sheets to make them go, whoa this hour. now the 1st person who wasn't for a mosque was a bus driver that i made. they did the promethean, that's when i started an, an est gdc most a little boy. they walked up. i set up a whatsapp group of women who knew how to say, let's get better. we got in touch with health workers who didn't have masks and gowns out by the and got to work is i get going of what he was manuel alvarado. if we made these masks, the fruit sellers and grocery store workers coming off of that he, us a, is that these were nice for young people, the initial vocal. we made these ones with cartoon characters for children or whatever. and lots of kids had a hard time understanding what was going on. like when i woke up ira adriano wasn't scared, even though she delivered masks to people working in miss central services. but if

he, if a doctor became sick, many people would suffer thousands merely. so i didn't think about myself. other than cell. one of the most important aids provided was the distribution of food to the elderly, struggling with lockdown. and families unable to go out because they had come down with covered 19 again landra hagi. danielle mac westhal. i wanna ask reba ferrante boa coordinated all the food that was packaged and sent out from palomares. look at the new awkward uniform court. i'm you and often them the few of if you had cars from a few to people, was heinously. here's where we set up, laid back in the salon. this time over there was a free then will often a for did here and over. there was rice, lentils, things like that, all along in their category. who i ping, cbs diverse. be prepared more than 8 tea food baskets a day for families with that's a lot. have you ever lucas and therapist the whole apartment buildings had come

down with cove. it have again, we left the food at the main entrance and the residence handed is out. we couldn't go inside elderly people's hands, so we left the food at their front door. jamara. then we called them to say we brought the food to buy more. you are only contact with people, was by phone, the name of contact, the connie for whatever other kind of funnel is took out of their list for these are the flyers. we 1st made with phone numbers on them when we put them in our cars, say that the police wouldn't finest for breaking, locked down the highlight for so most 3 bu was receiving the european citizen award from the european parliament or say last no, russell. this gave us the award and though you can read about it online, i love it. last year in march, members of the european parliament came to a park near by to give us their recognition. and in november we went to brussels to collect our reward on every corner from yandell was so most to be blue no longer

exists, its legacy lives on in other groups that serve smaller neighborhoods. in the vi, eastern district of madrid, the center at palo met us is a resource that supports vulnerable women, but they still distribute food to the elderly and help people who are suffering the impact of long cove it. ah, that's it for today. see you next week on the coven 19 special, till then stay healthy. mm hm. ah, with
