Continuing to suffer the highest official death toll in europe it faces a long road ahead a return to business as usual maybe many months from now. Britain slowly begins to ease its coronavirus restrictions our correspondent charlotte parts has been reporting on the developments there she sent us this analysis from london. Almost 2 months into the lockdown and the Prime Minister made clear that there will be no grand reopening of the economy anytime soon the highest death toll in europe and the Prime Ministers own near death experience with the virus have made Boris Johnson choose a slow careful and conditional approach on how to ease the lock down baby steps towards a new kind of normal and only if the reproduction rate of the barest stays down. Johnson cant afford mistakes on the way out of the locked out too many were already made on the way in when the government reacted slow and. Now a recent poll has found that britons believe that their government has handled the crisis worse than other major countries so far though as Charlotte Potts and london here in germany the corona virus infection rate has risen above the critical value of one that means every 10 patients are infecting 11 other people on average the countrys Public Health agency says its too early to draw conclusions but that the infection rate needs to be closely monitored this comes after many lock down restrictions have been lifted cafes and restaurants have opened in northern germany and warm spring weather has brought more people out onto the streets and into parks. Now the rise in the infection rate in germany has also coincided with several clusters of new cases in Meat Processing plants the outbreaks have led to the temporary closure of 2 companies employing hundreds of contract workers from Eastern Europe our correspondent sent us this report from one of the affected towns in western germany. Animals are no longer being slaughtered here but goods are still being transported this large Meat Processing plant has been shut down at least 190 workers have tested positive for the corona virus the real number of workers infected is probably higher and thats provoked a backlash especially against the working conditions where a subcontractor employs hundreds of workers from Eastern Europe. They take used the need of people have to work 60 hours a week and more people who have to live in rundown mold infested cramped conditions who are carted to work and back in packed buses and vans its dangerous and thats why i am protesting the other reports of poor Living Conditions for these workers are nothing new but now the infection rate is rising and that affects everyone who lives in the area the Regional Government relax the lockdown conditions or we could go but not in the town of khowst felt. He got out of that all the way i think that and this wave of infections this exponential wave of infections will hit cosell yeah thats been getting lots of calls from local people and we are really scared and a local politician wants to show us why she takes us to a nearby village just a 15 minute drive away where many Eastern European workers are housed. In that look they write all the names here the. Names on the door are all romanian this man says he lives here he wont tell us his name but he says he comes from soup you a city in transylvania hes not wearing a face mask and tells us the house has been placed under quarantine. Youve got until. The politician calls police to tell them that other people from the house are moving freely around the village and going shopping. Local officials turned up half an hour later than up and also very much like i assumed that these residential buildings had already been tested and that they put people who have been infected and people who had contact to them under quarantine under the border is over that it really doesnt look like that theyve only just started testing and thats very late this is from about 3 good local people who are deeply concerned more than ever. Lets have a look at the latest developments in the coronavirus pandemic u. S. Vice president mike pence is isolating after his spokeswoman tested positive for corona virus pens has so far tested negative Health Officials in the u. S. State of new york are now investigating dozens of cases of an inflammatory illness in children which has been linked to cope with 19 spain has registered its lowest daily death toll since mid march the number dropped to 143 on sunday and yemen has reported 17 new cases bringing the total of total number of infections there to 518 people have died there so far as more countries begin to lift stricter coronavirus lockdown measures some governments are making face masks mandatory and for many its taking some getting used to but for the Deaf Community having everyones miles covered means they cant understand what others are saying. When the indonesian government made Wearing Masks mandatory phys ridden knew it would make life hard for one completely deaf she relies heavily on lip reading for communication so the professional seamstress took matters into her own hands. I made normal mass up the stars. But then i tried to make the masts with the clear windows. I thought it would be difficult to make the masts with windows. But after a few tries they turned out to be nice and useful. This which proved fruitful better ridden and her husband whos also do if have already sold more than 200 of the windowed masks and of begun supplying buyers all across the country user reviews have so far been positive. That. With ordinary mastery people with hearing loss can guess what one is trying to say. Because they cant hear lips move and we communicate with others. I have many friends with hearing loss and this innovation is very helpful. And it was. A sentiment being echoed around the world in belgium these deaf students are calling for transparent face masks to be more readily available they also want them to be used more widely and in the community they say its not enough simply for diff people to wear them when you go to net 100 people. In the Current Situation with the coronavirus there are sales people for example at the post office or at the pharmacy who have masks the problem is excess ability when it comes to deaf people thats why we need more people to wear transparent masks. For the hearing impaired mosques can add to the anxiety of living through a pandemic and as they look set to become the new normal at least for a while many in the Deaf Community hope they will become more inclusive.
