Place since the corona virus outbreak. Last along with the pandemic east africa bassos a paper of. The insects a devastating crops across the region experts warn this 2nd wave will they give poses and preceded to threats to Food Security. And im Christine Wonderwall come across Europe Countries have begun easing their current a virus restrictions even amid fears of a possible 2nd wave of infections were bringing you updates from germany the u. K. And frogs where people are now allowed to leave their homes without a permit and many shops and businesses have reopened france currently has the worlds 5th highest death toll from coke at 19 with more than 20. 6000 fatalities. The streets of paris looking more like their bustling selves on monday morning after 8 weeks under a Strict Lockdown french citizens are finally back on the streets a tentative reopening with most shops allowed to welcome customers and many people returning to work. I think its still very risky for the population but costs are rising for companies so we need to go back to work. No no im not afraid everything should be fine of people respect the distancing rules i took the metro this morning and people were really considerate. Traffic on the paris metro is lighter than normal masts are now mandatory on all public transport and signs advice commuters on how to maintain social distancing citizens are now allowed to travel up to 100 kilometers without filling out a form to explain why primary schools will also begin to reopen this week the loosening of restrictions is based on encouraging numbers like theres a cline in daily coronavirus deaths but authorities warn that restrictions could be imposed again. Virus would get out of control again as opposed to risk for the health of french citizens we would be implemented lockdown measures. And differentiated way as we did initially. Some regions remain red zones such as the northeast of the country including paris the area is subject to additional restrictions for example parks and gardens remain closed our thirtys have also urged those who can to continue working from home. The hope is that caution will be enough to further reduce the spread of the virus allowing friends to continue on the path to a full reopening. Is bringing in correspondent lisa lewis who is standing by for us in paris hi lisa so this is a snow reopening of the country its not all happening at once. Absolutely as you mentioned as was mentioned in the piece we just saw before hand france is now divided into green and red zones one red zone is the overseas territory my york where no restrictions have been lifted so far here in paris there is an additional rule in the morning rush hour and in the evening so 6 hours a day you need to have an additional certificate saying that you need to take public transport if you want to take it otherwise you have to pay a fine of 135 years and thats also because here in paris the spread of the virus is still quite fast and authorities are quite worried about the situation. So how did things go today quite smoothly i must say according to a recent poll 2 thirds of the french are quite right about the lifting of restrictions and you could see that most of the Public Transport Network was not actually at cracking point there were only a few people taking the metro taking the trains there were some exceptions though for example on line 13 which flings cents on the new francis pursed department to the center of paris and where many people actually have to go back to work on that line additionally there was a technical problem this morning thats why the 1st few trains were really part about apart from that most trains were quite empty people have been reporting that there are a few people take a creator to taking trains and there most of them varying masks and trying to keep a distance from each other lets talk about the economy for a bit shell which is expected to have permits what is president menem a crime and his government doing to get people back to work. Well the government has already put 110000000000 euros on the table to cut those who are struggling because of the coronavirus that is that money will fly in and temporary unemployment it was all it will always hope companies that are struggling these companies can apply for subsidies or government loans and dont have to pay employees charges on top of that the government is now working on 3 specific packages for the car industry for the Aeronautics Industry and for the Tourism Industry to help these sectors that are particularly struggling at this very moment and also theyre working on a stimulus package to get the economy back on track in september thats when they are hoping that the economy will completely reopen again hand france ok thats lisa lewis reporting for us in paris thank you u. K. Prime minister bars johnson has doubled down on his plan to get britain back to work this time before the house of commons he says the nations sacrifies as brought a close to rebuilding and reopening the country restrictions such as physical distancing are still in place but the plan calls for a gradual reopening of schools from june 1st mandatory quarantine for International Travelers and a recommendation to live face mosques in Public Office restrictions. Germany has noted a rise in the Coronavirus Infection rate for the 1st time in weeks the reproduction rate for the virus is over one meaning the number of infections is now growing officials are keeping a close eye on the number as germany moves to rollback lock down restrictions and reopen its economy its a clear indication of the countrys difficult balancing act as it attempts to return to normality. Waiting has become the name of the game in germany and not only at supermarkets the virus reproduction rate has risen again to 1. 00 now and like much of the nation is waiting to see the effects of easing restrictions. But no other than 3rd its important to me to once again draw attention to the fact that we are now in a new phase of the pandemic and it will now be necessary in easing restrictions that we ensure safety so following the basic requirements that means keeping our distance wearing a mouth and nose covering and having consideration for others. Thats very important. With guns because the outbreaks at several slaughterhouses have meant the plans to relax restrictions have also been put on hold in 5 german districts where the number of new cases in the last week exceeded the new agreed maximum why to questions about Living Standards for workers have also been raised elsewhere in germany there are some signs of normalcy a shops and restaurants reopen but on the streets fatigue and frustration of getting louder thousands of people demonstrated at the weekend accusing politicians of infringing their rights concerns are growing that the protests are being used as a platform for conspiracy theorists as well as far right extremists. Obstacles about her picks in claims hateful stereotypes theories that either result in a scapegoats or in a kind of world villain who is supposed to be pulling all the strings people spreading this want to stir up conspiracy theories that havent gain much traction before. Anyone who spreads Something Like this want to divide our country and turn people against each other. Dimension of monday meanwhile saw the opening of felons current virus Treatment Center albeit weeks later than 1st planned but as germany anticipates the impact of relaxing restrictions the hope is that these beds will remain empty. Ok for more on the story from germany we are joined by our Political Correspondent emmanuel. Had a see you emanuel so how concerned are officials here about that infection rates going up. Well you know this weight has been fluctuating in those so they can use them collected on weekends for example so we talking about partial they to hear we have seen the reproduction rate going up and down around one over the past few weeks so its being at 1. 13 at the moment doesnt necessarily mean that the hospitals would reach full capacity or over capacity just now but of course these are come so that its not decreasing the loosening of restorations so means more social interactions and therefore increases the risk of infections as weve seen over the weekend with new infection cases in Nursing Homes in thurman for example if we are weeks maybe even months into into this pandemic is the political Political Class here in germany united behind the government and its handling of the crisis well not really at the moment at the top of the government we see the great qualifications social democrats and conservatives showing a united front of the moment but if you look at other political factions for example the festa Position Party the far right theyve the divvied up in arms against the restoration measures the shops being clothes etc stating that this was a breach in Constitutional Rights we also have to lever as of the a p who are also now the biggest promoters of the measures implemented was the Vice President of the bundestag a liberal who talked about massive arrest to actions against fundamental rights i quote him and the leader of the liberals in the region of the range of thomas kerrys even joining a far right protest last weekend. Weve seen a growing number of protests in germany against lockdown measures to what extent do they reflect public opinion. Well theres certainly a growing concern within society that fundamental rights are being stomped upon with those measures however this seems to be an antagonism between conspiracy conspiracy theories sympathizers and to vox and a majority of the germans who are quite happy to follow the measures the Safety Measures in place at the moment you can see Industries Many people are Wearing Masks in public transports Industries Even if its not a composer read there and there are so happy to work from home when they have the possibility to do so and those people the majority of people are quite concerned when they heed the positives of people who gathered to protest with ultra spectum social these fancying measures for example ok thats the menu which has a with the view from berlin thank you now many parents around the world has been struggling to balance the new demands of childcare and home schooling on top of their jobs and surveys show its mainly women who are bearing the brunt of that work at home during the pandemic those findings are raising a question is the crisis eroding important gains in gender equality. Sometimes happiness is simply a trip to a reopened local playground a rare moment of respite from constant crisis mode after 8 weeks of parenting through a pandemic. Kunsan mom im a mom can you do this mom its not working mommy i want this i want that all i want. Im fair. With daycares and Elementary Schools closed across germany the pandemic has made motherhood and around the clock job again for many moms it means the challenge of managing both the kids and the office at home. During meetings and video conferences shes right there the whole time its very distracting and hard to concentrate when he does have to whenever i was busy with him i was worrying about work and the things that i couldnt get done and you have to mans from work its a really difficult 6. Months with this i just feel torn between child and job. For many women its often the career that suffers between working from home housework helping the kids with their homework and acting as their School Teacher or task that primarily fall on women. Sociologists say that while many men do offer support its women who bear the brunt of unpaid care work. Right now were seeing a real regression in terms of gender equality because we didnt finish the job before corona hit by making sure that both highs hold and paid work and distributed between men and women. Working mom or housewife or both at the same time some worry the pandemic could be reinforcing traditional gender stereotypes were already seeing that women struggle more neck careers as a result of interruptions and part time work this has negative repercussions both in the short and long term. Right now the playground gives these moms a well deserved break but sharing the burden of this crisis requires a more concerted effort from everyone. Part of the political fallout of the current if i spend them it is delayed elections in a number of countries among them poland its ruling law and Justice Party was pushing ahead with the president ial vote for this past weekend and so mounting a big pressure of course the party to postpone it critics say this back and forth is an example of the way the law and Justice Party has been chipping away at democracy in poland most notably the radical changes the party has made to the judicial system e.

After all the local swarms were monitored and predictions were made months ago how come things still got this bad well i think there are a couple of things there so the 1st thing is that at the start when the local 1st came the government responded quite late and then another thing is of course what we saw in the reporters at the very little equipment a few helicopter a few planes and a ground stop to deal with locals and another thing is the climatic conditions. There have been rained here since december even outside the normal rainy season and basically just have allowed the locals to breed in kenya and ethiopia places where they havent been breeding before. So in kenya where you are the hope is that the swarms will abate by june or july 1 of the experts saying about how realistic that is. Well that is the hope because in june and july that is when farmers you expect the next big harvest. And there are basically theyre saying that there are several challenges to this 11 thing is that. That of course that theres very little equipment the other thing is that that of course with the corona crisis as weve seen in the report as well there have been. Theres that has posted logistical problem and the 3rd thing is also that. Its a regional problem so even if you fight the locusts in one area they can still migrate from another area like for example somalia which has no way of no means of fighting the locusts so the u. N. Is talking about Food Security being created 10 and preset into crisis what needs to happen to avert a major hunger crisis in east africa. Yes so the food and Agriculture Organization have said that they need about 153000000. 00 u. S. Dollars to respond to the crisis and which is basically in 10 countries across africa the middle east and parts of asia and they have about 70 percent of this so the hope is that they will be able to help governments to fight to prevent the worst the other thing is that. With the krona outbreak here there have been theres also the problem of the slowdown in the economy so they have so so they have basically so one thing that they maybe have to do is basically put together the measures combined measures of how they want to help people affected by the economic downturn due to the current outbreak and the locust ok thats cool reporting for us from kenyas capital nairobi thank you and for more analysis klasky data on east africas locus invasion visit our website at www dot com.
