Plus a novel way to ease the pandemic and to stress. How the corona virus has forced one brass band to change its tune and turn it stage into a yoga studio. Our brian thomas good to have you with us today more European Countries are reimposing tough coronavirus for. Directions as the continent grapples with rising infection rates spain has the most cases in europe some 860000 Central Government has declared a state of emergency in the capital madrid and doctors there have told d. W. Theyre preparing for the worst. The lineups continue to get longer in front of moderates health care centers. The workday should already be over for doctor but shes making time for a quick interview outside her clinic the authorities have banned doctors from talking to the media however she wont be silenced and she remembers only too well the disastrous weeks back in march when margarets Health Care System collapsed. Did not get him or do not want to experience that again the government has to do its homework and must keep its promises and more personnel thats the only way well be able to master the situation and protect the population. The number of those testing positive in madrid has been increasing dramatically for weeks but instead of dealing with it the conservative Regional Government got in broiled in a dispute with spain through a lng center left government. Epidemiologists. Together with 600 Health Care Experts released a report accusing Decision Makers of not having learned from whats happened in recent months. Their actions are simply negligent and they arent intervening the pandemic has worsened again since the end of july and they are apparently hoping that the problem will go away by itself. After 1st declining to deal with the accusations that the big step u. T. Minister of health is ready to state his case despite about 10000 people having died so far from the disease in the spanish capital he sees no reason to be selfcritical. So without magic it is a safe city it has a fantastic Health Care System we already saw that in spring and considering all measures taken we certainly should not disregard the possible social or economic consequences for citizens in the last friday the Central Government finally imposed a temporary state of emergency in madrid effectively over powering their Regional Government since then strict rules have been imposed again locals are only allowed to leave the city in exceptional cases the virus would be less destructive if ill put it titians actually did that job its a sentence that you hear more and more on the streets of madrid people are increasingly tired of a political system in which power games seem more important than pragmatic Crisis Management and they hardly see any sign of improvement. Doctor at all it isnt done yet she takes a short coffee break 3 hours after her shift was supposed to end and will then attention 2 more patients. Shes worried that the coming days will even be longer for her and her colleagues. And. Lets get more now did abuse young philip shows who put that report together for us thanks so much for that report and good to see you young philip spains capital madrid again europes a coronavirus hotspot it has an infection rate more than twice the National Average or can you tell us whats whats driving that. Well thats exactly the question everybody is asking in spain at the moment why are we why is our capital of the most affected regions in europe one more time and its also a question that i asked the Deputy Health minister at the region in madrid some days ago and she was probably quite honest but also somewhat disturbing he said he simply has no idea some people say that it has a lot to do with a spanish lifestyle with People Living very close within the family its also often i think in that very close with him and their families because of limited resources but i think thats only part of the problem i think the main problem is really the catastrophic political Crisis Management a lot of people say the Regional Government is just as prepared as it was in spring there are no more trace. Employed. Health system is very weak so a lot of people say this is the main problem is that most of the local government was opposed to the partial lockdown that the federal government imposed on the dred i can you tell us more about that. Its west Central Government it seems to be the last resorts to declare a state of emergency now because the Regional Government refused to take any serious action even when infection numbers exceeded 1000 new infections 100000 residents so in the end they even tried to challenge any action in courts restricting any movement in madrid so the Central Government in the end only saw the option of declaring a state of emergency and effectively over powering Regional Governments what about the people in madrid John Philip Howard how are they dealing with whats becoming a very difficult situation for them the onus on the one hand and on the other hand all the new restrictions well i think its not excited to say as such traumatised population theyre just really terrified to be traumatized again we already saw horrible pictures in spring and people feel they could see the same pictures this week next week or in the coming weeks but they are not only the straights they are also very confused because nobody really knows which measures are in place at the moment and which measures im not in place i came into the city by either the Central Station and they were actually no official controls but they were also very few people at the station anyway but i think its not only that people straight they are also very angry at the government at the Regional Government as well as its Central Government john philip shells thanks very much for your reporting and that interview lets get you up to date with some of the other developments now in the pandemics the city of munich germany has been added to the list of coronavirus hotspots in germany after a key threshold was hit monday case numbers have surged in the country in recent days triggering tighter restrictions and many urban centers.

Its the roost now where tens of thousands of people have once again taken to the streets of the capital minsk to protest against hardline leader Alexander Lukashenko Security Forces have detained hundreds of demonstrators opposition groups say look shango rigged elections in august and must up though. The people of minsk have reached the boiling point. Here ill tell you must they stand a fascist then yes i will remember him for my whole life for once more they took to the streets to demand president lukashenko step down. Only to be met by the full strength of Security Forces. Sunday saw some of the most violent tactics yet from all 36. Who sent military vehicles into the center of the capital. Groups of black clad mosques police were filmed running towards protesters. Opposition news sites and this witness footage of them pulling protesters to the ground. And dragging them into black mini buses the scene seemed to clash with those film just one day earlier when president lukashenko met with his jailed political opponents to discuss reforms. Shouldnt really be focused on the constitution. Im trying to convince not only go supporters but the whole of society that one needs to look at things more broadly. The Bizarre Television meeting did little to dissuade many from participating in sundays protests. Because he wants to look like the kind lead on this so that the elderly in front of the television think that hes really ready for the dialogue with the opposition over the thing. Hes just a terrorist talking to his hostages and hes trying to sell that to us as negotiations. Demonstrators have vowed to continue taking to the streets until president lukashenko steps down. Im joined now for more by the valorous in journalist. Following developments for us good morning to you thanks so much for coming in the protesters have been taking to the streets for 2 months now as weve seen in very large numbers do you see the demonstrations continuing at their current levels. Well yes there is a lot of anger and basically no demand of the protesters was matt so i imagine people coming out to the streets again and again every sunday of course the protest might change their form they might get institutionalized in and they can then you form and then you wait but i imagine people are still very much mobilized and very much she know demanding change and they just disagree. Ok now over the Weekend Edition go met with jailed activists in the prison where theyre being held what do you make of that. Well that was his attempt to show that hes ready for the constitutional reform but many people do not believe in this because the wall switch on and to who is considered a National Leader she wasnt charged of this kind of consideration the reform from her side and a person that the politician and the. Group was a kind of working on these changes he was jailed so at the same time look at trying to show that he is ready for this reform but we can see that while he just wants to get this kind of process under control and people clearly understand it is kind of look at us and not the way to kind of deceive people you know to to. To introduce his own kind of process and all of this quest but people do not believe him. Well another group thats looking at the serious long was a seriously along with the people of bogus or the you learn ministers theyre meeting today to discuss possible new sanctions on belarus do you think that will make any difference in minutes. Well i think thats what many people expect on the yesterday nearly 600 people were detained him anywhere badly injured they were hospitalized with broken bones stun grenades were used people were shot with rubber bullets so we are coming back to the situation of august during the worst the thousands of people where detained so i think people just expect justice they want Justice Justice they demanded it no criminal case was launched into they have to investigate and that russia tests of their courage has so i think the only way for people to kind of get this justice is to see that those people who were responsible for the election of reagan for brutal oppression brutal repressions and by lots of the police. They people of these people would be somehow punished by the by sanctions or International Investigation so thats what many people in belarus do expect indeed. Journalists coming in for us today thanks very much for that thank you all scientists who spent more than a year studying Climate Change in the arctic ever turned to base to evaluate their findings German Research Research Ship palash down has docked at its home port of an after completing the biggest study of its kind.

Their destination is the polar region the aim to gain new insights into almost wished the changing climate. You know told by the ice breaker ducked into a huge ice floe and looks into the ice. The scientists set up their state of the art instruments to money toward the flaws lifecycle from its formation to its credible destruction at the end of the arctic summer and. The arctic is heating up at a much faster rate than the rest of the world we see a dramatic change we need to understand that process as the arctic is an integral part of the Global Climate system if we dont understand whats happening in the arctic we cant predict the climate an hour later toots thats what were here for we need to collect the data so that we have a Solid Foundation for basing political decisions. From their floating lab the scientists took water samples examined the arctic flora and fauna measured the sea ice and launched weather balloons all in extreme conditions for months they worked in total darkness at times the temperature dropped to almost minus 40 degrees celsius getting supplies through to the researchers was a constant challenge but everything went according to plan until the grown up and damaged threatened to undermine the complicated logistics chain to pull ashton was forced to temporarily abandon the flow and head to the no vision port of. The call up let me out of that. We faced huge challenges because of the pandemic we were forced to replant the entire logistics how to replace the crew deliver supplies and refuel the ship we had to complete and we organize the entire process its a unique situation and were happy we found a quick solution or set of data. Back at the Flow Research activities were resumed as expected rising temperatures credulously melted the ice until in late july the flow finally broke apart. The group scrambled to safety how quick meant. In the last 12 months they have collected over 100. 00 terabytes of data which will take several years to evaluate but one thing is already clear the polar ice is melting and at an even faster rate than the scientists feared.
