Been set up because some hospitals can no longer admitting texted patients italy is the country with the highest number of cases outside china. All of it really has been under quarantine for weeks now schools have been closed since the beginning of march but for the students at the German School in rome this doesnt mean they get extended holidays teachers are doing their best to have their students studying from home using smartphones and tablets and the principal at thomas hat is being very resourceful in order to keep the young ones motivated italy correspondent visited the school to find out how its all working out. Its a. T. M. And the roads are free almost unheard of at this time of the morning in the italian capital. But nothing is normal in these times of the coronavirus this is the unusual empty parking lot of the German School in rome. Headmaster thomas hart is one of the last people still coming in daily he welcomes me with a new way of greeting. Hope team our means team is a match one of 10 everyone else has a home. Thats almost 1000 people the school has 88 teachers and 830 students including my 2 sons a whole series of disinfection measures have been introduced to protect people from contamination. Going on as are hundreds im supposed to be touched any more as germs communing for several days. Theres a great sense of uncertainty everyone here was taken by surprise by the rapid spread of the corona virus. But had the atmosphere we thought that it was a long long way away. He said then we began to notice how fast it was spreading. From just the number of pieces of meat to all of a sudden very different figures. It was. Thomas hart now has the huge task of organizing remote lessons for the entire school from kindergarten age to high school. All the teachers have to familiarize themselves with the new Digital Teaching platforms. And this is not necessarily that simple. As the many to turn off the same for everyone. Even the microphone has to be protected against the virus. Thomas hart and his colleagues are preparing lessons for the coming weeks. Its not easy to ensure discipline at home. Is very difficult for the people structure their day. So we created special instructions so that parents can help their children especially primary level also to help the older students plan their days. I was hoping to talk to people about their new daily routine. But since they are stuck at home and worried about being infected that didnt work out but im a lampert who was classes from primary to High School Level was willing to invite me into her home she says that managing the virtual classroom is anything but easy. There are many technical challenges what format should i use to post a video online while the pupils be able to open it you have to prepare instructions its not so easy to answer questions and solve problems if students dont quite understand something special. She is using the internet to rearrange the courses and is producing her own videos for teaching latin so more good morning class today were going to be looking at the accusative plus infinitive maybe i should get a bit closer is that better. For her older history students she is prepared an audio chat session. She knows that shes got some tough weeks ahead. But shes also communicating one to one with students who need advice like my son for example for him and the others its a whole new territory. We have so much free time and have to manage everything i was so its easy to do very little or nothing at all it wont hurt if the school gave us more structure. The change situation has had an impact on absolutely everything in the country supermarkets are controlling the number of course tumors to decrease the risk of infection and the queue outside looks quite different 15 years they have to stand one metre apart only 10 to 15 people are allowed in the store yesterday i had to wait almost an hour. And. This feeling of being short in is getting too many in italy. To me too. How long we have to cope with this situation. According to official statistics only a few people in russia have contracted the corona virus so far in the city of. One particular group stands out in the fight against the virus the cossacks can roughly be translated into free worry out or free man these descendants of former military horse men have declared war on the invisible enemy threatening the health of their fellow russians. Russia. Prepared to take on any enemy including the coronavirus since early february he has been in charge of the special patrol by the euro. Facemasks in their neighborhood. People for signs of a cold. Is an ottoman one of the heads of the. People here recognize them by their uniforms and some of their recommendations on how to stay healthy are just as old fashioned. Traditional remedies. And keeping to basic rules of personal hygiene when people come in from outside they should wash their. Clothes. With because we care about the faith of russia. Holy water along with them for extra protection against the virus. Authorized by the city but in russia often supports the state Security Forces and unofficial guardians of public order. The next morning teenagers try their hand at a paramilitary drill from the late 18th century defended the borders of the russian empire since the fall of the soviet union kosek identity has had a revival anyone. Being patriotic conservative and ready to fight is. Served in the soviet army in a close 2nd munity he is in charge of their childrens military education he says it makes them stronger and healthier. We cause arks arent afraid i cant own a virus we are a prince of thats why its important for the kids to exercise and have a healthy lifestyle. Theyre often outside for 4 hours straight that toughens the russian needs a Healthy Society not just physically healthy but morally healthy. And moral health includes Orthodox Christian faith. Now my dear. Even traditional close sack hats have to be taken off for prayer. But the co socks sense of their role as a patriotic a lead candidate times border on the extreme including when it comes to the corona virus. And one that we believe that our immune system is stronger than the immune systems of immigrants from asia because of course extradition lived on the border of the russian empire and cottages and protected russias border. And we also get strength from the Russian Orthodox church where we believe that god is with us cossacks are and have always been the warriors of christ because like you. Were in the me. The authorities generally give the co sachs a free hand and applaud their initiative after all they are consistently loyal to the russian government but people in your catalina book im so sure about the vigilante patrols. Who they think they are not doctors if they can diagnose anything the child we bring up an astute obviously i think everyone goes crazy in their own way. Who knows what the cost x. Have come up with this time. Its probably better to ask them that. Of an office proud to be able to hand out face masks on the patrols theyre sold out many stores in russia and though there are more and more cases in the country he is convinced that the corona virus wont take hold here. Demick in russia where there was the most rigid from good Preventive Care and a Good Health Care system. Go to the doctor but there were but its better. Than treated. The action man hopes that the other kosek organizations will join their fight against the virus soon even though it sometimes worries he could get sick as well he feels the fight against the coronavirus is a duty to his country. Meanwhile of the cossacks have decided to stop kissing the cross when praying out of fear of the coronavirus we move on the 2 greenland islands in Northern Europe completely covered by an ice sheet right now Climate Change is causing the ice to melt the process is slow but unstoppable and it is attracting much attention because buried beneath the ice lies a treasure of Mineral ResourcesForeign Companies eager to extract them however locals are afraid that they will be ripped off.

But so far in you its like are profiting from their islands Natural Resources. And move if there are lots of mining was opened in 2009. But theres no been no discussion prior to how are we going to mine on that sort of resources among the Common People i think thats. So thats missing. Greenlands capital new is thriving. But almost one in 5 greenlanders little blue with the poverty line. Thats why alston says local should benefit more from the extraction of the islands resources. Many here agree. So you should be profiting from this. Its our country thats been. Poor we should get to keep the proceeds. Just like in other countries you know. Greenlanders have been taking to the streets protesting against Foreign Companies dominating the islands mining sector. But the nations minister of Mineral Resources insists only major corporations from China Australia and the us house what it takes to get the job done you need to have the knowledge you need to have experience of operating your life. And you also need to have fun being the necessary father to. Make sure compliance or ricki lake. Also find this infuriating at home he discovers that the ministry is again allowing multinational corporations to explore large areas on the island for Natural Resources.

In a society that can be happy. Wilson wont give up he hopes that once hes got his mining license he can start extracting gems by next year. He thinks agreements in europe people need to be more assertive. Because some have been calling so many. Its like a lot of mindset. I see it all in all but generation to have the world we need to wait for the government for something to happen it. Also says its time to ditch this mentality and finally reap the profits of the islands Natural Resources. Do not at any cost of course over exploitation after all along with Global Warming has severely harmed the islands pristine nature.

This they trip cost 100. 00 euros. About 75000. 00 tourists visiting chernobyl last year despite radiation exposure being around 5. 00 to 10. 00 times higher than a normal day in germany. The contamination levels differ though which can be seen clearly at socalled hot spots in these areas there are more radioactive particles which is a huge health risk this clearing is the 1st highlights but also radioactive hotspot the Geiger Counter measures nearly 7000000 sievert a return flight from frankfurt to new york would be 0100000 seniors and weve let you know where were they dont just sit over here after the exercise was exiles and this is also their service so its fine if you like 10 seconds thats not if you are going to be disloyal from the heart thats going to drop out of us if youre not going to do it with her and to extend a lot of humor im a tries to counteract the groups easy feeling.

Ever since it was covered by a giant sarcophagus the radiation has been decreasing for most of the locals whoever chernobyl remains a to boo even 30 years later i can feel this thing. And be grateful for those people who want to know that part of the story but this is a good idea that after so many years they didnt forget about this era and got it from. Before they can continue to turn the tourists each undergo radiation test with original soviet whitmans. Contaminated objects cannot leave the exclusion zone for the what looks like from a museum the Machine Works there have been occasions in the past where visitors have to leave their shoes here but they everythings fine. Back in the us. Let me welcome you in because the. 50000 people used to live in this showcase Housing Estate from the socialist era just a stones throw away from the reactor. Project once used to be a prosperous city. And a tells anecdotes that recall those times but theyre all the remnants too but the most popular photo setting on the turf the abandoned Amusement Park a perfect space for the selfie audience and for instagram where the still life. Yeah those perfect heroes such a typical modern gift welcome to my thing a world yeah exactly to the visitors this place seems surreal devoid of people and deadly silent its more a memorial than an Adventure Park buzzard are from bosnia is also in a more somber mood now. And the city seems empty and. You know the emptiness i mean. That feeling like you see hear birds sing. Neither do i so you know. That we are hearing them all the lack of. Gets me back to those pictures and the commensurate. Protein looked before and now we see and its not. Seen by. Many to remind us that the church. Projects the consequences of a Nuclear Catastrophe are clearly visible and many visitors might grasp its extent for the 1st time. Thanks to the turn the site of the worlds worst Nuclear Accidents could have a meaningful future again. Imagine a job where you dont have any colleagues you never see sunlight and you cant even use your cell phone might sound like a nightmare to some but its the dream job of middle slavin there it is responsible for maintaining a Nuclear Bunker in that sex capital of prag and after more than 40 years the doing what he loves middle class is showing no signs of slowing down. This is the. Work place. Deep down below a park. Near dead works as a janitor in an atomic bunker hes always ready for the worst case scenario. You know in an emergency you just remove these floorboards. When you put this insulation rubber in place and shook the store. Every day not that ensures the bunker is ready for a Nuclear Attack even though the cold war ended 30 years ago. There are 48 never used toilets 2. 5 kilometers of hallways as well as 260 year old diesel generators for the air ventilation system. I move the engine every day so the pistons dont get stuck. 20 meters above not a sound of the underground activity can be heard on pragues part of course the hill hardly anyone would guess what meandering tunnel system lurks below. To this day the czech capital maintain some 900 bunkers. The one underneath para course the hill built in the 1950 s. Is one of the largest it is laid out for a 5000 people all prague bunkers are fully operational. We gain from filling this bunker up with concrete. In the bunker i mean all the money that was spent from this was wasted. So we keep everything that we need to there. And you need someone like me. Who doesnt mind working on his own 20 meters below ground without natural. And cell phone reception. At least hes got his parents to keep him company. And i like these bunkers i paid that this you know. Look i see things ive done so i have a special connection to this place. A bunker hes been taking care of for 49 years now only rarely film crews come here to shoot movies. All his life net that has carried out bunker maintenance in case of nuclear war though he wishes there was no need for that. People could shelter here for 3 days. But once theyd return to the surface theyd find everything in ruins. I hope humanity is wise enough but these bunkers will never be needed. Ned that has started training up his successor. For now its still his dream job and if hes never needed he knows at least that the world above has done everything right.
