Downplayed the sweetest most of condition we go to london for the latest. And be speaking to. Champion time to take entrepreneurial nico rosberg giving his view on how the court could affect racing. Welcome to the program. Walked free from prison after australias highest court overturned his convictions for child sex abuse the Senior Catholic Church figure was serving a 6 year. But had maintained his innocence the now 70 year old cardinal was the highest thats the clinic to have been convicted of sex abuse when he was just over a year ago. Got one and roger men are joins us from sydney for more on this roger what did the judges have to say in todays decision well this was clearly an important and extremely controversial judgment by the Australian High Court 7 judges you know mostly found that there was reasonable doubt about tool tells guilt and there was there for a significant possibility that an innocent person had been convicted adding that the witness evidence was inconsistent with the complaints account as they put it now this refers to the main issue in this entire case which goes back to the alleged Sexual Assault of 213 Year Old Club boys and patricks cathedral in melbourne back in the mid 1990 s. The defense had always argued that it was not sufficient tucked hale to commit the offense is between a high over that timothy after the sunday mass when he was fairly in the congregation on the cathedral steps and his returned to the sacristy where the alleged offense were supposed to have taken place that is the crux that caught the case and they are the judges clearly found in a girls fate or with george brown had also been used as a symbol of the wrongs of the Catholic Church what are supporters of Abuse Victims saying about his acquittal. Well this is clearly and remains a highly contentious issue in australia many victims of sexual abuse regarded girls conviction as just deserts full of archbishop of melbourne and sydney but others have argued the pale has been turned into a scapegoat or whipping boy for the wrongdoings of others on the other hand the lawyer acting for the father of one of the alleged victims said today a client was in shock and he was furious about the acquittal and the child abuse Survivors Network in australia said it was displayed and heartbroken that cargo door felt had successfully challenged his conviction for sexual abuse so clearly the wounds inflicted by this case have shown no signs of being yet brother or not speaking to us from sydney thank you very much for that. Britains Prime MinisterBoris Johnson has been moved to intensive care in a London Hospital after his caught on a lot of symptoms worse and johnson has been in hospital. Over since the weekend he destined positive for corona virus nearly 2 weeks ago since being admitted he has tweeted that he was in good spirits and remained in touch with his team downing street has said foreign minister dominic robb will be deputizing for him when necessary the democrats want to big boss is following developments in london good morning to a bigot what is the latest on Boris Johnsons condition. Well as of this morning barish we havent had any updates we know that he was taken into intensive care as a precaution but of course we also know that if somebody is taken into an intensive care unit at this moment of crisis it is definitely serious for a lot of people they will be very very anxious to hear the news of how the Prime MinisterPrime Minister exactly is doing to get it was only last week the Boris Johnsons aides were saying he had only mild symptoms and the Prime Minister himself said he was feeling a lot better on friday and now hes in intensive care its been quite a turn for the worse in a short time. Well yes indeed it happened really quite quickly so throughout the whole week last week straight and also Boris Johnson himself they maintained that he was in charge of a fast that he was briefing ministers that he was basically leading the fight against corona virus and then of course it came as a bit of a shock to the nation that he was then delivered into hospital and now into intensive care so really quite a Rapid Development to have been media reports that downing street might not have been quite so open as they could it be and when it came to how Prime Minister bush johnson was really doing already at the end of last week that he was actually already getting. Around to getting worried but this is nothing that they have said publicly so this is just a media speculation the other of course the other alternative the other explanation could be that maybe the Prime Minister himself would have been in denial that he feels hes quite strong very resilient and that he wanted to work through as theres wanted to plow through wanted to lead a country in this real moment of crisis and simply maybe did not listen to his body and did not listen to the symptoms and that it took him as well by surprise so we will not know at this moment in time but those other 2 those would be the 2 explanations i think. That was the democrats want to begin in london lets get you the latest developments now in the global accord on the virus pandemic the global death toll now stands at almost 75000 over 1300000 people have been infected with the virus worldwide yet in germany the number of confirmed the Coronavirus Infections has now passed 100000 the fold highest caseload in the world israel has announced a complete lockdown over the upcoming holiday china has reported no new deaths from the coronavirus over the past 24 and the 32 new cases the country reported from people who did tunde from overseas theres been a rough couple of weeks for the world of sports including formula 17 races have been canceled now there are growing concerns about the Financial Impact in a moment ill speak with former formula one World Champion turned nico rosberg about possible effects of the pandemic on the racing world but 1st heres a look at how rosberg has been pushing for change in motor sports since retiring. This was nico rosberg back in training 16 the machine to strive to have just won his trust from you know one title. Shortly after he announced his retirement from the sport. But hes kept busy since colling it creates his love for innovation and sustainability has made him turn to new ventures rosberg is a big supporter of Green Technology and email and he has invested heavily in crimea ear and hes the cofounder of the green tech festival in berlin a platform for anyone to showcase their Sustainable Technology but the krona virus pandemic has forced rosberg to put some of his Business Plans on hold the innovator in him however sees an opportunity in self isolation. Is just not practicing where is the real negative thoughts come you can learn to center your thoughts again think about your breathing not just comes your mind a higher form of awareness maybe thats exactly the challenge the work needs right now. Bigger roseburg joins us now from his home in spain where he and his family are in lockdown due to the pandemic good to have you on you have a big following on social media and there are many people will be looking to you for inspiration during these trying times based on the skills and experience from your professional life what advice do you have or. Well the for example i mean i did a i did a challenge is now on social media its called national one week and its really to apply some discipline into your every day and my main message is that progress equals more happiness so if we can take on challenges where we progress in a meaningful way it really helps us to keep mental well being so my 1st challenge was meditation and my 2nd challenge im announcing today on my social media is going to be another very last one you speak about discipline i mean discipline comes easily i would imagine to a person of your caliber with the focus that is required for formula one are busy but how does one acquire discipline if youre a normal person. Actually discipline is very difficult difficult for me im not so disciplined that im quiet when i get into stuff like at the moment reading the reading the news all day long and i really need to force myself to discipline and it comes because ive learned what is good for me from a mental well being point of view and so i know that discipline is really going to help me happy youre doing the meaningful stuff so i started my day this morning actually its 7 oclock with meditation and then i dont jump on the spinning bike for an hour and then i jump into the interview with you so ive already done some some nice meaningful progress this morning with the support and that does me a lot of good i can only recommend a lot to everybody so hopefully people can follow that advice because like you talk a bit about if this was inevitable we were going to talk about every one of the seed reeses consumed because of the corn about us brick what do you think should happen with the rest of the season. Well nobody knows i hope that they can still stage a couple of races maybe they can become a little bit creative and do a double header on weekends where maybe saturday goes one way and sunny goes the other way around the racetrack and that could be a nightmare but the problem is no nobody knows when the 1st race is going to be held of course it helps that we can help hold races without spectators is that will allow some races to happen sooner because that will allow us to that with the limitations of not having more than 100 people in one place or some like that races can still be held so thats a little advantage apart from that the Biggest Issue at the moment is the financial situation for some of the smaller teams because the f one circus needs all teams to participate if 2 or 3 smaller teams drop out then its not really a great sport anymore is a start and not enough teams competing and not enough teams in the grid so that is the main focus at the moment to help the smaller teams financially im glad you talked about the Financial Condition of their fund because the larger question really is for the entire sport as to how much trouble f one actually easy and i mean there are some estimates that about 55000000 dollars in revenue could be lost i mean what are your views on the. Thats true that a lot of revenues will be lost but at the same time if one is already implemented measures not save a lot of Money Development has been halted and postponed so thats going to save a lot of money and theyre in discussions for many other things so theyre doing the right things then and separately from that theyre what ive been very very proud about is how if one has shown that they are absolutely leading the way and theyre the most skilful engineers in the world and my x. T. Mistake is for example developed a breathing a super short time frame and that got certified by the n. H. S. As well very rapidly so d as we speak its already possible for it to be saving lives and then further to that top seventeens in the u. K. Together are doing something called project bit lane and together theyre developing a ventilator components so thats also going to be a huge help to the u. K. And to the rest of the world and im very proud of that morning for were at some point the corner about us our brick will be brought under control but what changes do you think well see in communities and businesses after that the main thing is going to be social distancing thats going to stick for a while i believe and so even if we go to a restaurant is going to be fewer people their tables are going to be spread out i think were going to see until the until the last in comes maybe because thats very important to keep this virus under control its unlikely that its just completely going to disappear. But in the longer term do you think the pedia of lockdown and i solution that many people are going through something that you yourself and your family are going through we see a change in the way we work in our daily lives and we put our with our professions for example. Here in spain weve been under home lockdown since 3 weeks now so im not even allowed to go outside the gates so here in spain that theyve taken the most extreme measures im not complaining because i have a nice garden here and so were actually very lucky because were able to have a nice family time actually but a lot of other people are certainly in a very tough situation more the question again i forgot sorry do you think that theres going to be moving forward to change and rich in how we interact with our professions. While i have my in my it might seem more like 1718 people back in monaco working on all my affairs and and we were even doing a lot of. Video conferencing they were together 7000 people honestly it works really well and what im also seeing is that people really appreciate being able to work from home a little bit more so i think thats going to be a trend which is going to be accelerates it because of this and any last but thank you so much for speaking to us thanks a lot. Thats it for now well see you in 45 minutes. Combating the corona pandemic. Where does research stand and. What are scientists learning. Background information and. Our corona update. From the covert 19 special the next on d w. Im doing great big thing in all the time. How to handle on new lives in times of the corona pandemic d. W. Reporter. Just like everyone else and shes looking for answers and thankfully with the help of 2 leading experts youre the perfect person to talk to the support of these folks thank you this is not life as we know it but were all in this together our new web series. Now is the time to listen to the experts scientists are our best hope to end the coronavirus Pandemic Research labs around the world are racing to create a new vaccine the idea is to simulate an infection while avoiding the possibly severe symptoms of covert 19 once vaccinated our immune system should destroy the virus if we are exposed to it according to the w h o there are currently more than 60 teams of scientists working on a vaccine under normal circumstances it would take more than 10 years for the times to Previous Research efforts there is a chance this process may be fast tracked with human trials already underway in some cases but scientists agree that it will still take months until a vaccine is approved. This is your covert 1000 special. D. W. News im Monica Johnson berlin good to have you with us when will a corona vaccine be ready a vaccine that enables us to resume our lives without restrictions while protecting us from the disease im afraid we need to be patient and keep our distance for a while longer and let scientists do their job like here in berlin where a Biotech Company comes up with promising results. Berlin is empty. And those who can are staying at home. But these Lab Technicians cant work from home for them there is more work than ever the chemists at the j p t Peptide Company are regarded as systemically important. Since what theyre producing here could speed up the search for a Coronavirus Vaccine. Were creating peptide based tools that enable the Vaccine Developers to monitor the immune systems of patients in treatment and to track them over a certain period of time. And to listen to what insightful some wanted to. Peptides are amino acid chains that make up proteins this Company Creates hundreds of thousands of them and assembles them so that they resemble the coronaviruses most important surface proteins. The scientists have been working on this project since january their work will contribute to research about the possible effectiveness of a vaccine. In the race for a Coronavirus Vaccine some scientists are focusing on the development of vaccines based on messenger r. N. A. Or r. N. A. This involves injecting a person with the instructions for part of the virus this would then spur the body to partially produce the virus this in turn encourages the immune system to develop antibodies. Then if the real corona virus strikes the person would be well equipped and able to defend himself or herself. Whether that will really work is whats being tested with the tools being developed here j p Ts Technology has already been used in the fight against the zeek of virus and ebola. The berlin based company is indirectly involved in the race for a vaccine sense it belongs to bio and tech a German Company at the forefront of the vaccine race but for j p t its not about competition. Its drovers fight its always good i think thats the wrong way of looking at it at the moment. Its really about getting a vaccine onto the market it doesnt matter who does this in the end its about making a contribution and maybe being among the 1st to do so but right now its truly about fulfilling the ethical duty to help. The technicians here seem to feel the same way. Yes absolutely one can you think you can contribute to making people healthy or even healing them thats very motivating. Yes oh yes sure but i do have mixed feelings on the one hand im afraid on the other i know i have something important to contribute its exciting. It certainly is a new test could be ready soon and many are placing their hopes and the effectiveness of an m. R. N. A. Based vaccine. The whole world is waiting for a vaccine but even though at least 60 teams of researchers around the globe are working to develop one no one expects a rapid breakthrough because producing a vaccine goes through several stages and that takes time and i know 1st step the virus and its effects on the human body and allies this is necessary to determine the composition of the vaccine potential vaccines are 1st tested on animals and later on this procedure is followed by testing human volunteers. I fall those tests are successful vaccine has to go through a lengthy approval process and only after that mass production can begin this process usually takes up to 15 years but thanks to new Technologies Development can go a lot faster today. And for more im joined by Klaus Scituate take president of the Power Institute thats the German Federal institute of faxons and biomet since good to have you with us so 1st of all i mean should a covert 1000 vaccine be fast tracked and if so what stage would be best to skip definitely we have 1st tracking the development and theres nothing to skip or rather to combine which means are we given. Poorly conceived to to the developments and to our regulatory authorities and in terms of lets say shortening the Development Time what were doing is. Focused number of Animal Studies that have to be done for example general pharmacology toxicology or defining the dose in animals that will be applied to humans in the 1st have and then of course we also have to combine clean contrivances so there is discussion with some of the developers would combine phase one phase 2 of is 2. 00 and 3. 00 and increase maybe the number of general subjects that will be involved in these studies but we need to be very careful with the assessment of the development as usual but of course we concentrate focus and shorten time or what time of course is off the essence of all those studies underway at the moment which one is the most promising you say. Well i think we need a variety of cough to a vaccine development. Currently and also the devote as per times in is our need fixins and also back to vaccines because they have the advantage that we know exactly which parts of the Genetic Information and Safety Information of the perfect can be included in the vaccine you know this from purpose or Research Work also at the poorly conceived to. Respect seeds and in that respect i think we say. Ok but what about the Production Capacity of developing a vaccine is one thing but then once we have it will there be enough for everyone and shut everyone get it. I think 1st of all those who are tourists who get it 1st and freeze for severe courses of covert 19 but also the risk for being infected may be morris and others and number 2 man effect will be no issue specifically the army and in the back since can be manufactured in a large amount of those is quite a short time were talking about a 1000000 doses or so within a time period of 4 weeks thats the river vantage of these new legs in platforms as we say and by the time we have a vaccine the pandemic will quite probably have peaked out we actually working on a vaccine for a future pandemic. Yes we are i think we learn really from the bowler. Africa were taking these kind of learnings to the development here of course to vex him but we will use that time in any case to develop these platforms so that we are ready and the quicker ready than this time to have a vaccine if the next and then they arise and i professor to take there from the German Federal institute of vaccines and biomed since thank you so much for your time thank you. Now time to address more of your questions and please do keep them coming on you tube on facebook on twitter or via email because our resident corona experts g. W. S. Derek williams stands ready to provide some answers. Ringback ringback ringback ringback ringback the w. H. O. Says getting vaccinated against pathogens that cause respiratory ailments like pneumonia is always a good idea particularly for the elderly but unfortunately vaccines against a bacterial infection will not prevent you from getting the covert 19 pneumonia caused by the corona virus because its a viral pneumonia so a vaccine against a bacterial pneumonia wont stop it many Health Authorities are currently however also recommending getting vaccinated against the flu that will prevent you from getting covert 19 either but it will hopefully cut down on the number of severe flu cases that end up in the hospital occupying a bed that might be desperately needed by a covert 1000 patient ringback ringback ringback ringback ringback. One thing thats really crippling us in this pandemic is that we dont know exactly who has had to cope at 19 and the known large number of people have gotten it but dont know they were never tested because they had mild symptoms or they had maybe no symptoms at all thats incredibly Important Information because it could tell us who is no probably immune to the corona virus its information that Going Forward is going to be essential as we try to get our societies back up and running and thats where an Antibody Test comes in the works like this when its infected with the pathogen your body forms these proteins called antibodies they are part of this immune response and the antibodies it makes are tailored to that specific bug those antibodies remain in your system that if youve gotten over the elders helping to protect you from reinfection an Antibody Test is diagnostic for detecting. So and then to buy a test for covert 19 could tell us if you had it in maybe didnt even notice it if thats the case then you would theoretically no longer carry the bug or be able to infect anyone else and bukit get back to work.
