abandoned the strict 0 cove had policies it had upheld for so long article authority to say the current wave will continue rising into next week. china began dismantling it's locked down and testing regimes this month coming the last major country to move towards living with the virus. be generous practicing their balancing skills on a frozen river in the middle of the city. after 3 years of constant restrictions on freedom, many of those strangers to the new situation of ha, ha ha. we're afraid of the virus, especially because we have a child. we don't want him to get too close to any one and we really go out. many chinese are struggling with the government's messaging until recently, officials issued regular warnings about the virus. no, suddenly it's not supposed to be so bad to pick one. it's a challenge with the core problem. people are making themselves afraid. in recent years, the government has had good intentions,

but exaggerate to the danger of the virus. awkward, normal life out site seems to be returning. the streets are busier, but saw to are the hospitals. as the rapid spread of the virus makes its mark on the health care system, staff are completely unprepared at this emergency room and b ging it over flowing and overloaded in the corridors, the deceased lie on hospital beds on the floor, a completely exhausted elderly lady. she has covered according to her relatives outside. some one brought his 80 year old parents here. oh, we've had a check up and we're waiting for the results. know if had a fever for a week, the temperature goes up and down all her. since the end of the 0 corbett policy official death, tolls have hard to come by. botch in front of the crematorium. there are long lines

with houses. we can only briefly take pictures with the smartphone. police are on guard. if we were employees of the crematory, or tell us they are much busier than usual, the virus is spreading at a rapid pace. you can see that in the big cities, according to one epidemiologist, it may only take a month from the beginning to the end for that to occur with $6070.00 even 80 percent of people being infected. so we know the oval timeline and that this narrow window of opportunity to, to have actions. now that would save people's lives. then when officials have pledged to expand clinical capacities like here at the sports hall and to ramp up the vaccination rates among the elderly, many of them are still not adequately protected. according to scientists, only 3 injections of the chinese and activated vaccine offer protection against a severe course of the disease. and there are severe weather warnings for

millions of americans as a huge winter storm moves across the united states. freezing arctic air is bringing blizzards and icy winds to much of the country, and that as people rush to get home for the holidays. this is been quite a once in a generation storm. the threat of heavy snow ice and dangerous t. hi, vince has already prompted some states to declare a state of emergency this really very service, whether we're here or goes from oklahoma, all way to wyoming to wyoming, to maine and several contra crunch. i encourage everyone. everyone, please he to local warning. dis the weird read that has destructed holiday plans for millions of americans, frustration, news,

as thousands of flights have been cancelled every year. we try to spend christmas or thanksgiving or something like that together. just, you know, to keep the family connected. so it's, it's really important. and many of those staying home. i briefing for record breaking, quote, dan preachers. if you're not bottled up gloves, i had a nice or a booth, probably some under the law long johns or whatnot. you will be called. the storm is sweeping through the french united states and heading east forecast as worn. millions more will. 5th har, shredder in the coming days. and very pleased to welcome matthew caput she, a meteorologist based in washington, d. c. matthews. tell us a just how bad the storm is. yeah, most definitely is fat for like 3 or 4 different reasons. so we've heard the term bomb cycling before. but what does that mean? basically this door is radley intensive by so quickly, this evacuating air and out the top as such

a rate that it's sucking air in the bottom from all sides. when eastern side we're seeing warm weather, a lot of rain from the eastern sea, we're with a lot of wind as well. yes. you about 90 kilometers per hour, but the bigger issue with that on the east coast. washington c. philly, boston new york. is that the rainbow ball then rapidly fries in cars and flash fries later on to dangerous robin on the back side of the system, you have cold air pull down from siberia in canada, causing temperatures near minus 40 celsius over the place in between that class of the year masses causes snow and blizzard conditions. and just how dangerous is dangerous, is it for people when temperatures are dropping so low? yes, i think it is both how low they get and how quickly they get any errors and see the last for is a lot of folks will drive to work with rain and fresh water on the ground and drive home when it's basically a skating rink, a sheet of ice because of how quickly that the water on the ground freeze. that's one concern in eastern areas. in western areas there seen the coldest temperatures

over the central us, like resent minus 30 minus 40, a feeling even colder. and the other issue to that temperature with the wind will make a feel more like minus 50 to minus 55. and he conditions like that only takes 5 minutes to get frostbite. 10 minutes for ivan virginia, and we're advising everybody who has to travel to have an emergency kit with blankets and everything you need in best jackets in your vehicle, just in case you break down because otherwise it could be deadly back. so a potentially very dangerous situation. indeed, i'm after today we've been reporting on severe weather events all around the world . can you tell us how much of a role climate change plays in the storm that we're seeing in the united states? yeah, most definitely. that's a really good question. any time we have a big event, it's good to try and figure out if there's a limb to climate change. what i will say is we often see bomb psych loans, often east coast of united states each winter. it's pretty typical november, december, january, always you're able to see bombs,

items one piece of potential climate length. if there was to be one, is that the polls the north pole is warming faster than the waiter? what that means is that the jet stream that river winds in the upper atmosphere has to go farther to balance out the warm equator. and the cooler polls. so as can go farther, because it's weightier, you get more extreme weather, more extreme air masses like wars right in the east. really cool down in the center, us and stronger mid latitude, side bone. so if there was a way that would be it, it's probably mostly random but, but there could be sort of more favorable. argy withdrew her thanks. 5. thank you so much for explaining all of that. that's matthew kabuki, a meteorologist based in washington, dc. and your sports news now and katara build the 2022 world cup as the 1st carbon neutral tournament, even building a temporary arena in a push for sustainability. the idea was to dismantle it after the tournament and ship it to another country that needs the structure. of course that only works if

it actually happens. it hosted some of the world cups, biggest parties, but now state stadium, $974.00 will be dismantled. the 1st ever temporary venue at a wealth cup got its name from the 974 shipping containers that we used to construct the arena. organizers say the ability to take apart and rebuild 974, makes it more sustainable than other stadiums. bought fif, his own study revealed the initial construction actually had higher greenhouse gas emissions than permanent stadiums due to the use of carbon intensive materials. it only becomes more sustainable if it is re used at future events. and there are no guarantees that that will happen as prospect gov. i don't think it will be rebuilt in another country. it will be there are rumors that say it will be donated to a developing country, but i think it's impossible. it's very difficult in terms of building a stadium oh,

down the concert august that sporting mega events have place that great to focus on sustainability lately, but there's no doubt consol 2022 has had a massive carbon footprint. the country built 8 new stadiums at a cost of some $6.00 and a half $1000000000.00 of the cook's children. so it could be a good thing for sustainability of the lobby. but i don't see how it is sustainable when you're spending billions of dollars to build them, their culture called korea immediately though that 974 could yet become a prototype for world cup stadiums. but 1st, it will have to see more moments like this in another parts of the world. just before we go, let's get a reminder of our top stories at this hour. a shooting at a kurdish community center has parked unrest and central paris. 3 people were killed in the attack and several others wounded french, prosecutors say a 69 year old sus act was taken into custody. and a murder investigation is underway. and hospitals in many parts of china are
