More on this from the w. Financial correspondent charles it lamie in frankfurt is it fair to say that this tax cut didnt work. Its clearly not been the huge success that the German Government hoped it would but i think its too early to say if it has or hasnt been a success there are a lot of differences if you look at the state of between and history is so things like retail sales of clothing and shoes things like that have really fallen a lot about 25 percent in july but on the other hand you do see increases for example of online sales or sales of food so there are big discrepancies between and histories and it also could be that it takes a little bit longer for this to really filter through down to consumers but obviously theres still a lot hanging over german consumers there are about 5000000. 00 people still on part time work schemes there are others about 6 percent Unemployment Rate so theres theres clearly a big overhang for people still and good to be a threat to the broader economic recovery it certainly could be we heard a lot of optimism from the German Government from the economy minister about the economic recovery but Consumer Spending was really supposed to be that pillar of the economic recovery other parts of the German Economy exports are going to be really dependent on what happens to the rest of the world businesses are still facing a lot of uncertainties so theyre going to be less likely to invest so german consumers are really supposed to be driving.

He was born with only logical disorder visual impairment and have troubles with fine motor skills. The 9 year old studies in the 2nd grade of a Government School along with children without disabilities. The school does not provide in the discretion educate are the crucial resources he needs to study. As a result he is all moot. Entirely dependent on his mother for his education. That is challenging enough right now the shutting down of schools during the call that lockdown has put him at risk of missing out on formal education and. Mucking about talking about impaired to other children disabled children are lagging behind in studies now even more than before but they are facing many problems he cannot see properly what can you understand from a small i phone screen and sometimes there are Network Issues too because of which he cannot attend the classes there the lack of inclusion in the Education System for children with disabilities has never been more pronounced than now. According to some recent surveys majority of students with disabilities are finding it difficult to cope with Online Education at the same time many nongovernmental organizations which address the needs of these children and provide them with academic support are also reeling under the impact of college 19 and the Lockdown National association for the blind in delhi is one such organization that helps children with visual impairment and multiple disabilities to build a foundation in learning so that they can lead to join me in school its one of them dormant were not receiving many donations now. So were not able to pay our staff or provide the facilities for the differently able to. Warm up with what weve also not been receiving the funds we normally get from the government from everyone many are experts feel that during this pandemic the special needs of students with disabilities have been completely left out from education policy which any we kept them on the sidelines. Has shifted to online wards and systematically were not ready to cater to them you would because a bit early days it was inaccessibility go on and engender the Information Communication Technology use it all and learn those were disabilities not ready developed and ive been seeing them there are also issues all nonavailability up internet. Despite all the hardships he faces kartik is a likely and happy child like other children he has one deed to be a doctor another be a single. The Education System all that to him to be more inclusive. For more lets bring in christine comment shes with the United Nations Childrens Fund unicef welcome to g. W. Christine give us an idea of the global scope of the pandemics impact on the lives of children that already physically and mentally challenged. And there have been 19 children everywhere are at risk surgery and physical disabilities are at a high risk without mitigating actions of course and that affects them disproportionately on the one hand immediate high risk of complications from comit Underlying Health reasons and yet at the same time information on how to protect themselves from introduction may not be in a format they can understand additionally support. Including on how education have been suspended just when the children meet and most and parents who are themselves struggling under the pandemic may not be able to step in or they may themselves fall ill with code that. Children with preexisting market teams are also least likely to benefit from Distance Learning solutions when schools are closed so they me and they are at risk. And all these factors can lead to increased stress fear and sense of isolation as actually i mean difficult for them to understand the changes and how life christine mental and physical impairment of children are a challenge for them and their families even under non pandemic circumstances now that the whole world is concerned with not contracting the virus to the concerns of these kids with special needs go unaddressed. In the fact of permits are affecting to disproportionately as i said the poor and the most marginalized children and there you are at it is that and our banner will situations are affected most like children living in cook communities and put countries and girls in particular children operated and living in countries actings or children with disabilities and it was not an impact like long as the consequences of undamaged risk plunging them further into hardship or marriage and labor many children for example may never return to school as they have to support their families and when schools are closed they may also become my marriage because many have dependents whom years as their only or. Similar children on the move to live in camps or added settlements the situation is particularly difficult this nearly impossible for them to protect themselves from the pirates and have the same time most likely to be excluded from support and Education Services or learning. So this looks at exactly what needs to be done them to improve the current situation. This is an unprecedented crisis which requires unprecedented solidarity and all of Us Government and the puddle and just the surgeon so you essentially must ensure that surgeon communities not only recover from the crisis but also become more brazilian with the future and this requires urgent investments in education and Child Protection and help in your situation. And whats also very important is that we listen to children and young people and were along to design a Better Future and overcome this crisis and prevent this from becoming a sustained type rights crisis forseen common of unicef thank you for your insights. And now its over to our science correspondent Derrick Williams who is hard at work and string your questions about the coronavirus. How efficient are saliva tests. Pretty much all of the experts agree that that fast simple accurate testing is a cornerstone of fighting the spread of coke at 19 but the conventional Testing Process has some some major disadvantages weve all seen that medical professional takes a swab that that looks like its like days long and they stick it way down your throat often via your nose i havent been tested myself but people i know who have been say its really no fun at all which is why the news that saliva tests are now being authorized for use is is pretty important stuff not only because saliva samples are easier to acquire and new methods make them cheaper to process but also because at some point at least you could potentially take the sample yourself and just send it in and removing the sample takers from the equation doesnt just get rid of a bottom bag it also means fewer people being potentially exposed. But how accurate are spit tests can they can they can pair or 2 conventional swab p. C. R. Tests that they get it right around 95 percent of the time well if you trust its developers the most recent saliva test to gain emergency use authorization in the us is highly accurate the Research Team behind it says that their tests agree with benchmarks swab tests over 90 percent of the time now that data hasnt been Peer Reviewed so it still has to hold up to scrutiny but but if its correct it could be a real money. Stone and work aimed at slowing the spread of the disease through really wide scale regular testing fast accurate step tests would for example these are common conscience when it comes to sending kids back to school because it would help us detect and control outbreaks much faster. And finally for every villain there are heroes to fight them in the ongoing going pandemic that would be all the Health Care Workers battling the coronavirus and helping those affected by it and how can we show our appreciation for the work well 2 siblings in california had an idea. But the dedication of Health Care Workers across the country siblings probably in an montage but decided to give back to San Francisco area teens launched cards for covert heroes working with schools and local scout troops they quickly collected over 260. 00 cards and sent them to people working on the front lines can you see from their faces that a small out of a triage met with a smile 10. 00 gift card can go a long way to encourage them and to help and they do they have ahead of. The tech savvy teens have also created an ecard option they personally deliver most of the cards to hospitals themselves on their website they share their heroes reaction to each little surprise. During these times of darkness and uncertainty we want to try to shine some light on that we do have true heroes working on the front lines who are trying their hardest to save peoples lives and thats all we need right.
