The near total ban on the porch and well bring you a live update from most. Of the program. A strong earthquake has struck in the aegean sea causing extensive damage in greece and turkey so your thoughts is say at least 12 people at dad and or 100 injured the tram struck off the aegean coast with the epicenter just north of the greek island of some quake caused several buildings to collapse in the turkish resort city of izmir rescue efforts there on going. I dont know this woman was almost buried alive i dont know how rescue workers are racing to free her from the rubble of a collapsed building one of many that came crashing down in this turkish resort city on friday. I. Am told the ground had shattered you can think in that moment all you can do is try to get out everything was collapsing around us luckily our building stayed intact but we were really panicked and managed to get out at the last minute. The earth shook for at least 25 seconds according to some witnesses after the quake struck deep in the ground beneath a jillion saying. It was followed by 67 aftershocks with the premise felt as far away as athens and polk area. I was in my shop talking with someone it felt like we were on a road everything started shaking while i was watching our building shaking i saw this building collapse. A small scale tsunami flooded the streets in some districts sending debris inland and causing further damage. To. The greek island of some us also suffered casualties damage and flooding with the foreign leaders of both nations pledging to help one another. Seismologists have warned that potentially powerful aftershocks should be expected for several weeks to come. And straight to turkey venditti dorian jones joins us from istanbul welcome dorian lets start with izmir then whats the situation there now. Well the citys still kind to come to grips with his devastating earthquake his one most powerful tool struck turkey in recent years and the effects were amplified by its Long Duration which violently struck struck many of the buildings all across the city sending millions of people into the streets in panic and on top of that theres many tsunami that inundated coastal parts of the city added to the problems and fear. Is near the citys main. 17 buildings had completely collapse and rescue efforts are now going on to try and recover any survivors in them what is the latest from the rescue dorie. We speak rescue workers are now trying to pick carefully frew the rubble of the collapsed building the buildings this is an extremely painstakingly and dangerous job you have to move very slowly at preventing the risk of further collapses on top of that the citys been hit by dozens and dozens of aftershocks which only adds to the danger this is going to be a long painstaking job expected to last many hours possibly even days but there have been some. Rays of hope as it were with some survivors already being recovered from the rubble. The search continues through the night. Oh absolutely efforts in fact intensifying as we speak rescue workers from across the country have been sent to help with those efforts the turkish army have also been deployed. To those rescue workers. This effort now is in many ways a race against time as well because the longer it goes on the less chance you have of finding people alive i mean efforts are being continued to be redoubled and that will carry on through the night and in the coming days ahead now this is a region that is prone to quakes. No absolutely the whole of turkey is prone to powerful devastating quakes in fact in 1909 just outside the provincial city of his mit was hit by a devastating quake which claimed over 17000 lives again the sight of claps buildings apartment blocks strewn that city and again were seeing again fallen collapsed building so turkey does have this experience of having to live under the shadow of of deadly quakes but it also has allowed turkey to develop a very large pool of expertise in rescue operations and turkey is now drawing on that expertise as we speak and all this while the world is in the grip of a pandemic how has that complicated matters. Well that certainly is another factor given the fact now that you have hundreds of thousands of people on the streets finding some kinds of refuge or im being congregated together in large numbers turkey is in the grip of a covert upsurge and this will only add to the concerns of that epidemic but for now at these people are just trying to find some safe place to spend the night thank you for that story in jones in.

Im poland bush and rights activists have converged in the capital warsaw following a week of mass demonstrations as you can see from these images there was a heavy Police Presence as well as they defied coronavirus restrictions to take to the streets angry about last weeks a Court Decision which bans abortions in cases where the fetus has congenital defects even poland with a new total ban abortions women in the country can now only legally terminate a pregnancy in cases of rape or incest if their lives are in danger. Lets join correspondent caught in the polish capital warsaw welcome livia 8 days of protest now what do demonstrators hope to achieve. Well they dont really have very cute him on so for 8 days now we see them using very Strong Language to basically tell the ruling party law and justice to leif. However the protests face part has published some good months earlier this week they were pretty broad though so one of them is for example to implement human rights again in poland another is to dismiss the government and another is to have independent courts again. So now that the court has has actually passed this ruling just does that issue and there are is there more to come. So the Prime Minister much more of us key said today that he would like to implement a madmans to the abortion law as soon as possible basically the courts ruling is not yet it will be binding the moment it will be published and when its published its not necessary to change the law or to introduce a new law but by changing the law or by implementing an amendment there can be more specific ation on when abortion is legal or illegal. Right so that this is your house and its not going to go away soon im now this this this protest has happened despite government appeals for people to stay at home because of the coronavirus pandemic what a protest to saying about that supposed purchases mostly say that the government has provoked them to go to the streets so its not their fault its the governments fault to create chaos thats what they say like this and times like these and you can see that people are not comfortable in the streets everyone is Wearing Masks but obviously theres a lot of people and contact is to stocks to be avoided. Im disease generally a contentious issue there in poland or something a problem to this latest change im sorry what what prompted this court action about abortion. Right so basically this is how its into presents for all the summer the Government Coalition had a lot of struggle and it is seen as a political decision the court as we said before is not really considered independent anymore and its seen as as basically a present for the idea largest in the government the very far right idea lodges right alluding of course us in warsaw thank you so much. Well that was some soothing brush strokes to take your mind off the coronavirus of a food landscape ive been shot if theyve been healthy its on display for an option in december at the fainting nicholls counted in los angeles is expected to fetch 30000000 euros its a busy year for sales of work by the 83 year old hes now britains most expensive and living artist. Thats it youre up to date of next year on the doubly well have our latest covered 19 focused and ive got all the latest news is available around the clock on the website d w dot com more world news for you at the top because of good. Combating the corona pandemic. Where does research stand. What are scientists learning. Background information and news. Hour carona update. 19 special next on d w. And. The both new training. Innovation and education. But this is one game we cant afford to lose the World Food Programme fights and go worldwide helping people help themselves my goal is 0 anger. Immunity has been on everyones lips since the pandemic began. As infections are. Proteins in the bloodstream that pathogens and. Production depends on the of an infection. From. A reduction in antibodies than the. Evidence that some people dont develop immunity. If you can prove. My trips to brazils island paradise of for a nano j not only was completely stress free. Actually i had to do a blood test 1st pretty high those kind of these always if i leave these Lab Test Results for my trip to paradise here it says antibodies i. G. G. 5. 78. Thats more than 5 times what i need even though i have had coded 19 im allowed to travel. I quickly packed my things so i can set off the next morning. My camera man one pablo and i probably became infected with the coronavirus right at the start of the pandemic when we were filming we were in mn now swear the Health Care System had collapsed this is the only flight this week that takes off for the island. Sitting next to me is some pio a business woman shes been there 50 times. My life is starting again. I not know jane i know nya is the most beautiful place in the world. She may be right. Like everyone else on this flight carolina has had the coronavirus. We must now stand in line and pay an environmental feat strict rules for entering paradise. The island has been virtually cut off from the outside world since march 2 to the pandemic according to our guide. Were now the 1st tourists and want to thorny say is an absolutely coronavirus free part of the earth one big plus the beautiful beaches are empty. Before the island was to. Nature preserve it was a notorious prison camp and before that the base for war ships built on ancient volcanic rock. When the pandemic started in march and their own year was cut off from the rest of brazil a curfew was also imposed. Only the fishermen were allowed to go out. In order that no one starved. Islanders felt a new sense of solidarity. With the. Authorities gave us diesel fuel we used to go out and fish in the end we gave away our entire catch to the islanders for free. Now known years Crisis Management has been exemplary thanks in part to random checks the island has not had a single case of coronavirus. Oh i ask you right even if more tourists come we probably wont have a corona Virus Outbreak weve taken a lot of preventative measures such as allowing in visitors who have already had coven 19 they have this picturesque coast almost all to themselves. A privilege that at least somewhat compensates for what theyve been through. I survived to the coronavirus it wasnt easy now its time to make up for it we have the island almost all to ourselves ill probably never again experience a paradise like this. At moments like these the pandemic feels far away. But just how immune are you if youve had the coronavirus ditto bhattacharya joins us now from the university of Arizona College of medicine hes an associate professor in immuno biology what are your results on immunity shot. Our results. For at least people with mild infections the course of the immune response seems pretty much as we would expect for most types of acute viral infections where after you clear it just certain period of immunity our study fall without antibiotics in especially protective and bodies out of the course of about 7 months and our studies show as many others that those antibodies continue to be pretty used for as long as weve been able to look is there any indication that it could be more than months it could be years. Yeah i mean when i say 7 months i dont mean up to 7 months i mean at least 7 months you know the pandemic hit our state fairly late and so we just dont have any participants who are infected any earlier than 7 months but if you look just by parallels to the 1st sars coronavirus which is the most similar virus weve seen. Those antibodies people who saw 1st sars kind of arcelor continuing to be produced now 17 years after the fact i dont know if this will be quite that long but you know i think a year or 2 seems like a reasonable minimum estimate that sounds quite optimistic though because of the coronaviruses have shown that immunity can drop off after you yeah i mean i guess the question is whats the best prior whats the best analogy and so you know genetically and in terms of the nucleotide sequence of the virus its really most similar to the 1st sars coronavirus so i think maybe like the best way to hedge your bets is say its probably going to be something in between you know a year or so which is what the common coronaviruses induce and the 17 years that weve seen from the 1st sars crowd of ours you know ultimately you know the crystal ball and so theres really no way to take a short cut here theres no way to know until we just start to follow it out to people who get the virus badly though have have shown that they have more antibodies and they have them for longer whats that tell us. Well yeah i mean theres a lot of things that go wrong people who end up with severe disease in the early stages of an immune response theres a huge amount of inflammation and uncoordinated signals the kinds of things that we dont normally see so theres something strange going on presumably the levels of virus certain are on the amount of the antibodies for the use are also higher and so you know its going to come take a little bit longer for those antibodies to come down in people who have very mild disease and if you are in a box you know whether or not the people with severe disease will actually be immune for longer is that something i think we still need to see because again a lot of things dont really work right in the severe phase and so it could affect some of the long term antibody production we just dont know whats this all mean for a vaccine because a vaccine provokes an antibody response of course yeah i mean it was actually very optimistic about the africa see the potential of the vaccines as in so far so you know one of the things that we have noticed is that you know that you get this nice stereotypical pattern of antibodies and they settle in are pretty low level and based on the epidemiology weve seen so far i mean it seems to be protective im sure you want to get to re infections in a little bit but it seems like pretty low levels of antibiotics are still protective the vaccine to be seen so far i mean all the onset of these turkey intestines here in the u. S. All exceed the normal immune response to natural infection and so if the natural infection can induce immunity im pretty optimistic that these vaccines will as well many things we still need to find out how long will the vaccine immunity last for and what are the safety effects all those things but all of the early indications ive seen so far make me very optimistic about the university of arizona thank you very much thank you and bring you up to date here of the latest on for more than 200 countries and territories on covert infections. The numbers show new cases doubling in 39 nations and increasing in another 94 countries stayed at the same level in 8 countries 55 nations have seen their new profit of covert 19 cases decline i know the 9 are down by at least half and 6 countries have reported no new cases for 4 weeks in a row heres the bar graph showing the statistics of past weeks the fight against the corona virus will be over when that whole chart turns of blue so its going to take some time. Now its up out of the show where you get to us the questions to our science correspondent eric why. Does improving ventilation make confined spaces like restaurants safer to operate because we now believe that aerosols play a role in covert 19 transmission at least in enclosed spaces adequate ventilation would appear to be a key aspect of lowering risk in public spaces like restaurants and bars but also schools but whats adequate exactly well thats pretty hard to nail down but because we tend to spend longer periods of time in those spaces than we do for example somewhere like a corner shop the general consensus among viral legis and airflow experts can be boiled down to the more outside area you can polish the safer you can make those environments so instead of asking whether improving ventilation can make restaurants and bars safer its more accurate to talk about whats called the air Exchange Rate which describes the number of times that the air is replaced in a room over the course of an hour i read a quote recently from one of the experts on air flow who said by. Easing the German Government on keeping schools open that really opened my eyes about the complexity of this issue he said that it doesnt matter how effective air Exchange Strategies are if someone who is infectious is in a room the ear can only really be cleaned if they leave it in other words transmission risks in spaces like bars and restaurants can only potentially be reduced by air replacement systems and even then they have to be pretty High Performance to make much of a difference but those risks rise again the moment more customers come and spend time in those spaces because the chances rise that one of them might be infected and shedding virus. That will covert 900 special for information about website dot com and click on the coronavirus of like. Ico africa. They have a Bad Reputation but they play a key role in the ecosystem. Which is a very much important in the Community Environment im calling them new toys and take on many species are in danger that the project to kenya seeks to protect the unloved scavenger that means above all talking to local people eco africa.
