Guys for a career serving the rich and famous and. Welcome to news asia its good to have you with us imagine for a moment being locked up in chains in a small room eating and sleeping there unable to leave for years only because you have a Mental Illness it sounds medieval but its happening in modern times in as many as 60 countries across the world according to a report by the end you Human Rights Watch in asia india china and indonesia are just some of the countries where the practice called shackling still exists here rights watch report in indonesia alone for example some 57000 people with Mental Health conditions have been shackled at least once in their lives people like this man on the island of bali locked up in a small cell for 2 years for having a Mental Health condition he comes from a poor family and his 94 year old father still works the land. Poverty a lack of access to Mental Health facilities stigma over Mental Health have something to do with it but in the end it increases the suffering of those already dealing with this trauma this is what the 48 year old you saw in the video said to researchers when they met him i feel sad locked in the room i want to look around outside go to work plant rice in the paddy fields please open the door please open the door. Lets get more from professor hans falls he teaches of the university of sydney and is an authority on Mental Health in indonesia i welcome professor polls now when it comes to shackling in indonesia is it by and large the only choice most poor families have as a means of dealing with Mental Health issues or are there other reasons as well. Thats a good question only choice of course a bit of a flexible conception one major problem in the many other countries in Southeast Asia and actually elsewhere in the world is to lack off of a tip its availability of Mental Health services and its often also a problem that that can be quite far away to praying someone to a Community Health center or a Mental Hospital especially in rural and remote areas in Eastern Indonesia it can be quite a distance away some just more than a day travelling and that obviously is a problem many poor people do not know that the link with Mental Illness day only note at the english on who can be quite believed your and sometimes on islands without provocation unexpectedly someone who. Cooked a house on fire killed life stock so in damage its this whole thing a problem especially if someone is attacking neighbors or destroying neighbors property delhi they going to be liable for that that much so in their mind that doing something about it but indonesia did banish acting way back in 10077 and since then it must be said indonesia has introduced a number of programs including a Community Based abroad to tackling the problem do you think that these initiatives are sufficient. They are moving very much in the right direction things are changing in a way to section all Mental Health of the ministry of health picked. Playing as a central problem because then to solve it they need to solve it me to create a much better Mental Health care system but also a much better general Health Care System and one of the things that has been introduced about 3 years ago is the minimal standards for the Community Health centers and this is a major innovation in Innovation Health care that are over 7000 in the whole country to every where the accessible for everybody now in the minimal standards to have to meet and this is assessed on an annual basis is to have to visit at home every individual with severe psychosis or schizophrenia to see how theyre doing that often have health on ts people from the community that trained them in Mental Health the symptoms to recognise them and then to report if they find someone who is shackled or. In the Mental Health care dept has brought down the number off people in check that over the past 678 years with this hof that its down. To about what this a tree is a 1000 people hope is a bit more at this is a very effective measure you know im not sure professor balls what would you say it needs to change in indonesia to prevent shuttling from occurring. A couple of things that happens often at very rural and remote areas is poor people poverty everywhere in this world is bad for Mental Health and bad for Mental Health a Family Member so if you offer to go help secondly the expenditure on Mental Health is quite low or about one percent of the Health Budget and if that spending could be increased. Very vile come through it what is happening and its making quite a difference is a voluntary Association Like the Indonesian Community for the support of people with schizophrenia because definitely not enough doctors it takes quite some time to educate psychiatrists stepped in and providing support to individuals for schizophrenia and care are not that often better in the cities spezza represented at the half are very Important Role at a las thing is what theyre already mentioned is that the Community Health centers are tasked to take care of individuals for severe Mental Illness and that is how relieving them of thank you so much for joining us professor pauls thank you.

But with his vast array of fabricated friends he could help just about anyone. Else bringing in psychiatry as their own john biology of Indias National institute of Mental Health and your sciences 1st of all is a 6 stolen effective treatment for chronic loneliness. You know. Its very individual my beeper some it may not be post some rather it depends on the need for social dutch as you were mentioning the need for physical proximity which has decreased to doing to knock down times saw are its one of the reasons looking at it but then again. It depends it depends in societies cultures about its acceptable to and whether it can be a replacement for the human touch our human proximity what about. Pets have actually been studied of over the last 6 months theres been a lot of studies especially with cats dogs fish. And they have classically been seen to improve the Human Connection its seen to relieve depression anxiety loneliness and specially when youre not able to meet others to help you to stay connected the feeling of human the feeling of being a human is retained so pretty useful measures and have been studied quite much indeed so how else would you advise someone whos feeling lonely and forced into isolation. I think virtue of the d. M. Have really taken up. The speaking virtually here and staying connected to at least 4 by keepers and its a means to keep one thing that we keep telling people who are isolated are in quarantined that that make sure that at least to talk to one person beat a stranger and one persons ability and whatever hobbies you have i think the lockdown and all that situation have given us plenty of opportunities to knowledge of that and thats a real real way to stay positive so text being given a very spirited a British Survey Shows one in 10 people experienced loneliness before the great low down 2 weeks in that rose to one in 4 young people with 3 times more likely to feel those feelings why is that i mean i thought young people spend most of their time in for their mobile phones. Yeah i think as you rightly said corbett has brought to us the real difference between a digital interface connectivity and human connectivity we have been doing some work on the concept of touch hunger like we feel hungry for food to people water we also have that hunger that can become chronic and especially in this unprecedented situation when we are not able to physically need people no matter how much virtual it is and that affects specially people who are in you know that a dollar since we were young because human touch social touch affectionate touch are very important in stages of Human Development and mostly that will be affecting the young and also the older people those who are of up at the pipe its the i like the core and the season starts i just want to point out a point you used in one of your papers you you said all of humanitys problems stem from our inability to sit in a room alone whats wrong with us. Yeah i think thats something which really made me reflect when i wrote the code that youre mentioning from my paper on social that lesion and the internet. I also mentioned that we need to confront the loneliness into saudi chewed basis you know the reliance a quite subtle so i believe that this break some part of this break was needed and its a critical balance between knowing how to ski a spend time with oneself versus socializing and if either of it is not enough then thats the problem so one thing that the lockdown at the core of crisis has also helped us and is trying and understanding how can we spend time with ourselves you know having a saudi chuka having enjoying our hobbies reflecting on us and thats one b. Which really we can use to deal with this chronic loneliness not only in the pandemic but even after that really briefly after the pandemic what happens then when people ditched their dog or that sexto womans Mental Health speech such an issue. Of course i think this is just the tip of the iceberg and the beginning were looking at next 6 months to one year Mental Health issues are going to race. I as a Mental Health professional my person take will be that people will try to at least you know they will learn to spend more time with themselves virtually medium could be a medium of communication and of course things like beth you know as youre mentioning exalts or even robotics theyre even butchers about it Artificial Intelligence these will come up gradually in mitigating the lonely they will have to leave it i dont think. Thank you very much for being on the show. Thank you. Now if youve got any questions on the coronavirus write to us are now you tube channel is al science correspondent there. Are many countries that seem to have achieved had immunity. The answer to this is a result in doing now but its still worth talking about herd immunity again at at this point in the pandemic just a reminder herd immunity is what we all want its the Tipping Point when enough of the population is immune to the virus that an infected person on average infects less than one other person so the number of new infections falls on immunity can come either from having had the disease or receiving a vaccine it doesnt matter which most estimates say herd immunity will only be reached with cove at 19 when between 60 and 70 percent of the population acquires immune status and that could prove hard to reach especially if im unity to source code to proves to not be a very long term and those whove had it or in those whove been max unaided which brings me to the country that i want to talk about im sweet which last spring swam against the lockdown tide by largely leaving society open there and it was hit pretty hard by the virus and return although reaching herd immunity it was never explicitly part of its governments coronavirus strategy its logical to expect that we would possibly see an effect in a place that had such high infection rates for early on so are we seeing one well interestingly maybe despite its looser restrictions the average daily number of new cases in sweden remained quite low throughout the summer even when they began rising again and many other European Countries were. Tighter restrictions thats not direct evidence that the beginnings of herd immunity could be playing a role there but its a tantalizing hand that it might be but its no more than a hand.

Im Rebecca Richards welcome to the program kurdistan is in political crisis after the countrys Electoral Commission and the results of last weekends parliamentary election the poll handed big gains to production president s who are run by and 2 establishment parties violence erupted overnight on the streets of beijing the capital of the Central Asian state and made accusations of mass vote buying campaigns at least one person died in the clashes with Security Forces as protesters stormed their way into government buildings. Outside protesters scaled the offensive kick it stuns president ial office building. Inside portraits of the president unceremoniously destroyed. Large items are removed from rooms.

By Morning Light the cleanup begins but anger is still burning over sundays parliamentary elections with claims of vote buying. Preliminary results declared to progovernment parties the winners. But it seems the countrys Electoral Commission has had enough on choose day it canceled the results altogether its unclear what happens next but having toppled its president twice before kick a stone is no stranger to political chaos. Following this developing story for us as Moscow Bureau chief. Yuri why these protests happening now. Well its all about actually about alleged manipulation on the one hand and corruption on the other hand in this very poor pulse of your country and its also about a power struggle between the old president at a time by it and the new president jeenbekov who has been leading the country since 2 and 2019 the former president at time by was put in prison for 11 years after the new one the current president. Was elected relations with his successor just back up and with the coldest parliament every simply been tense and is those are the tensions that are bubbling to this sort of face after the recent parliamentary elections 16 parties but dissipated only a small number of parties the received seats in the Parliament One of the main parties has close ties with the family of president didnt back off and the 2nd one is this is he added with a nother influential clan a clan is the opposition sees the election as an obvious for old and is demanding a new vault writes a quite complex situation there what does this mean for the wider region well just like all countries in central asia rebecca kurdistan is a poor country which can cause its instability and unrest in bishkek may have a domino effect to duty and resolve problems of that of the country has with the neighbors recently in may of this year for example on the border of kurdistan and had done there was a shoot out because of a disputed territory on the border last year in the fall there were also armed clashes clashes with the job is done and of course the poverty interest and also makes it in a breeding ground for the socalled Islamic State like other countries in central asia. What do we know about whats happening on the ground now and whats expected in the coming hours. Well its quite difficult to say what is exactly going on in the streets of bishkek i would say its summarized in the one word callous after a night of protests the lido off one of the losing parties south of that a peoples government would be convened in kurdistan instead of the current government and a new Prime Minister would be appointed at the same time government representatives in 3 other regions of kyrgyzstan have reportedly also resigned the opposition to this has appointed inhumane for the capital bishkek as well as if they had all these States Committee for National Security and finally one of the former members of parliament has declared that hes now the new prosecutor general and promised to arrest everyone involved in the large scale fraud which is what he calls of elections the opposition however intends to remove from Office President jim beck of budge and back off for his part call to the whole thing a coup attempt and called an opposition parties to remove remove their support us from the streets theory were shattered speaking to us from moscow thanks very much but u. S. President donald trump is facing a backlash in the wake of his hospitalized patients recovered 19 in an elaborately staged return to the white house he made a show of appearing without a mask and address the American Public in a video with defiant comments that have angered medical experts it was a determined donald trump wearing a mask who emerged on to the steps of the hospital. 4 days after he shocked the world by announcing he and 1st lady melania had tested positive for covert 19 trump was back. After the short helicopter flight to washington from across the white house lawn and strode up the stick case he made a point of removing his mask over in a salute to the departing a crew. And that was encourage meant for the other 7 and a half 1000000 americans who have been infected by the virus dont let it dominate you dont be afraid of it youre going to beat it we have the best medical equipment we have the best medicines all developed recently and you going to beat it i went i didnt feel so good and 2 days ago i could have left 2 days ago today is going felt great like better than i have in a long time i said just recently better than 20 years ago dont let it dominate dont let it take over your lives but doctors are not convinced. That the president may be in a honeymoon phase as i call it of course in 1000. 00 disease in the 1st its me me the viral thing for the inflammatory phase we look for warning sign around the 708 and when people can actually do a lot worse require a lot more oxygen and you may get better or at that point may get a lot worse and ill be around the weekend those words will not be enough to deter the president in one of his many tweets on a day of high drama chum pledge to be back on the campaign trail suit. Dahlia is an expert in infection hes not out of the woods yet what what do you make of the assessment of his situation. I think hes improved and responded to treatment but we know when somebody that its elderly somebody thats obese and its just been released from the hospital that you do have to watch them and monitor them for several days after that discharge because people can worsen so the next couple of days its going to be important to make sure that the president doesnt have any recurrence of his symptoms that hes not becoming short of breath that he can progress through his activities of daily living without any major problems so we will be watching closely to see how he does it is recovery. Of course the president has also come out and said that people shouldnt be afraid of covert 9 tain is that setting the right message do you think you know its sending the absolute wrong message 1000. 00 is killed over 200000 americans its it is something that we still have to really be vigilant about because if we start to let the guard down if we dont do the correct actions in order to control this we will continue to have more people dead and we are already seeing surges in parts of the midwest where hospitals again are in trouble so we have to just take the commonsense precautions to keep this level of the level of the virus to a manageable pace and thats where it masks face coverings not going to mass gathering social distancing all of that its really important in developing a system to test trace and isolate which we sadly still cannot do very well in the United States the president made a point of taking off his mask when he was saying after leaving the hospital what did what message does that send as the commander in chief and the president of the u. S. It just shows that hes willing to put other people at risk there was a photographer there on the on the on the patio with him that likely got exposed weve seen him take a drive around the Walter Reed Hospital with secret Service Agents who me exposed so this clearly is the wrong message the president is contagious for at least several more days he needs to be wearing a mask and time hes in the vicinity of anybody else to protect them from being infected by him. The president has also indicated that he wants to return to the campaign trail for more live events hes still infectious do you think thats advisable hes not going to be able to go anywhere for probably 4 or 5 more days because it takes about 10 days from symptoms to render yourself noncontagious so i dont expect to see him how i dont think anybody would actually permit that to happen in their state but i do think it probably will return to the campaign trail after that it will be interesting to see if he has the energy ability to do to do it but to do it and hopefully hell learn from the fact that he it was an event at the white house a calm Supreme Court announcement that led to a lot of these cases and hell modify his political rallies in the future so that people arent getting infected after rallies i think this is something that hopefully hes learned of this is this is a virus you have to take seriously and put mitigation efforts in place if youre going to have people gathering.
