And makes clear under what circumstances schools in kindergartens might be shut for politicians. This is about ensuring public support and keeping parliament in the loop innocently. In all these Health Protection measures which are going to be hard over the coming months, we have to take people with us. We cant just impose them by decree, it can only be done with dialogue. The law, the new laws should main events such as demonstrations can only be banned if experts agree, such a move is proportionate. But already plenty of people are saying, such legislation cuts too deep into basic freedoms and its aims are insufficiently clear. As to more about those objections than simon, because on the face of it, this sounds like its just clarifying the current situation. So what are demonstrators about . I think up for a lot of people, its really about letting the politicians know that they are hurting. And of course people are suffering as elsewhere, particularly Business Owners or people who have to rearrange their lives. And obviously families have been heavily disrupted, but a lot of these hard core protesters are a real corona skeptics that maybe some with links to the far right. And as far as this piece of legislation is concerned, it doesnt actually prescribe any specific measures that the government has to take. It just puts any measures that they do take on a more solid legal footing. So from the governments point of view, they would say this is democracy in action. So briefly then, simon, how much support do these measures have amongst the public . Well that the lock down, the geminis in at the moment has got very significant support about 54 percent. Anyway, over hoffa, germans say they think the measures that are in place now the limited lockdowns are sufficient and appropriate to deal with the virus. Indeed, 18 percent say they dont think the measures go far enough. So theres a lot of support. And i think thats been pretty solid throughout the last 8 months since weve seen the government having to take some extreme measures to deal with the pandemic. I simon, thank you, simon. You. We can take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world. Thousands of antigovernment protesters gathered in the thai capital bangkok as lawmakers rejected their demands. This week heep sweeping changes to the constitution. Demonstrators want the Prime Minister to step down and curbs, on the power of the monarchy. Chaotic protests a day earlier left more than 50 people injured. The u. S. Federal Aviation Administration says boeing 737 mags jet will be allowed to fly again. If planes are fitted with new software, the aircraft was grounded in march last year after 2 crashes killed nearly 350 people, ugandan president ial candidate and pop star bobby wian has been arrested again this time while campaigning, police had warned that candidates faced arrest if they broke dive lines, limiting rallies to 200 people during a pandemic is the white folks to replace your god as long ruling president that ethiopia, where government and rebel forces in the tea grab region, have both, are both claiming military successes. The government of the Ethiopian Army says its winning on all fronts. Troops advance on the regional capital, mckayla rebel leaders say theyre inflicting heavy defeat. Some government forces. Both sides are resisting calls by the International Community to cease hostilities amid fears the conflict could draw in other countries. As more than 30000, people flee ethiopia for Eastern Sudan to escape the fighting. The Un Refugee Agency is warning that a full scale humanitarian crisis is unfolding. Speaks for the u. N. H. C. R. And joins us from geneva. Welcome to d. W. Lets start with the situation on the ground. What do you know of that . Thank you very much. Very, very few details coming out as far as the tikrit region itself is concerned. There is a communication blackout. What we are hearing in terms of the stories that refugees are bringing on the other side in Eastern Sudan. Theyre telling us that the 30 or more the 30000 refugees who have fled so far with a daily average of 4000 of i think in Eastern Sudan, theyre telling us that they are fleeing from heavy clashes. And they have said in a rush, many of those who are saying they dont have much on them in many mothers and their babies on their backs. You have stories of families, separation and the number of desperate jeffie just continue to increase day by day. So if this fighting does not stop, many more could be on the run for their lives. Now, given that backdrop, or youve just outlined for us, i wonder what you make of very if European Defense minister who told me yesterday that this conflict is not a big deal. And that aid agencies dont need access because it will all be over soon. For us humanitarians, i mean the safety of civilians is paramount. Thats why i been asking for access and insight. That degree region have nearly 800000 in 3 individuals in 4 refugee camps inside the region. There was even before the conflict started, we had around 100000, people who were displaced, utopians who were displaced. Thousands of others who depend on who are from humanitarian agencies. Have been asking one for the fighting to stop. And secondly to excess, because the worry is People Better now out of food and supplies. And the fighting in the last 2 was very close to one of the refugee camps, literally refugees, and are worried. And they maybe some of them have already left that location. The problem is we dont have access. Thank you for joining us. From the, i was just 2 months left in office u. S. , President Donald Trump is causing more International Alarm by ordering a sharp reduction in american troop numbers in afghanistan and iraq. America has 3000 soldiers in iraq and 4000 500. 00 in afghanistan by mid january. This will be cut to 2 and a half 1000 in each country. But mr. Trump is facing opposition from leading republicans and from nato. The sun could be setting on the u. S. Presence in afghanistan. American soldiers have been fighting here since 2001, helping stabilize the country after overthrowing taliban rule, but suffering the 2000 deaths over time. The numbers have waned. Now outgoing president , donald trump will reduce them to a skeleton force thats raising fears among afghans over the future. Security of that country. In my opinion, the withdrawal of foreign troops from afghanistan will cause the taliban to escalate their violence across the country. And it will also cause women to suffer but u. S. Forces withdraw from afghanistan. It will create a power vacuum, and the taliban will escalate the violence in a bid to seize more political power. In afghanistan. As u. S. Troop numbers to fall and extremists have gained in strength. This attack on couple university earlier this month killed 22 people. It was claimed by the socalled islamic state, which has emerged as a rival to the taliban. The taliban themselves have stepped up their attacks on Security Forces and civilians violating an agreement that foresaw the withdrawal of all u. S. Soldiers. By may next year, criticism of the latest drawdown even came from within the president s own party. Really important here not to have any or shirking changes with regard to foreign policy. Neither afghanistan or iraq would be in iraq. The u. S. Military presence was greatly reduced after the defeat of isis in 2017. This is increased the sway of neighboring iran and militia groups aligned with ted. As u. S. Soldiers head home, they could risk leaving the field to americas adversaries. Has been battering Central America with high winds and torrential rains. A storm came ashore in nicaragua, that has killed at least 6 people, forecasters say, flooding and landslides are still a big threat. Its the 30th storm so far this season, Strong Enough to have been given any hurricane are you . The storm roared ashore on nicaragua, as caterpillar and coast packing, 250 kilometer para winds and leaving chaos in its wake. That this is the 1st hurricane ive seen in my life. And its one of the strongest and most destructive hurricanes ive ever seen in my life. Because homes of thousands of people have been evacuated to shelters, and the area is still reeling from an equally powerful storm. The same stretch of coastline was devastated by hurricane etta just 2 weeks ago. Where running out for this atlantic Hurricane Season record. But its record breaking and every sense of the word it has turned out to be even west, and we thought it started earlier and is going to end even late. This unprecedented season is focusing more attention on climate change. Scientists say its causing where stronger and more destructive storms. November usually signals the end of the Hurricane Season. Something that cant come soon enough for people here. But thats it. Youre up to date, ill have more at the top of our database. Covered 19 special is next hour with the fight against the coronavirus pandemic has the rate of infection been developing. What does the latest research say . Information and context around a virus update. On t w every journey begins with the 1st step and every language of the 1st word. I looked into the pillow case in germany. Sure. Why not born with the chefs . Its simple mind on your mobile and free d. W. B. Learning course. German made easy has the coronavirus already found a way to beat the vaccines. And you take action in maine has led to mass killing in denmark. The new strain doesnt appear any deadly good to humans, but it does raise serious questions. What we have to value is over time, as for the flourishes of the difference in transmission or clinical severity over the reserve, the implication for diagnostics of rexx, which were a long, long way away from making any determination of the crime. The reason for concern is that mutations have occurred in the viruses by protein. Thats the very target of the most developed vaccines. Officials have since discovered the corona virus on make farms in half a dozen countries. But the biggest producer, denmark is hardest hit, and its become political with the agriculture minister, stepping down after the government admitted it didnt have the legal basis to order the nationwide colic. There are more than 1300 main farms in denmark. Many of them are in the minister palette of the office, including piano paid, arsons. The virus reached his farm in early september. He clearly remembers that day and going to cornea. It was like a wave passing through the stables. It began at one end with the animal, sneezing and losing their appetite, and it kept spreading. But one week later on the following weekend, it was over. The animals were healthy, again. The new mystery going to be on a patterson also contracted the virus. Now to be on the safe side, all of his 10000 mink will be culled. He never imagined that denmarks meant farms could develop into hotspots. It is thought that the corona virus stems from the animal world. It is believed to have 1st jumped from a bad species to humans via the pangolin in china. On denmarks make farms, it is now jumping back to animals from humans. Once a mink is infected, the virus spreads to almost all of the animals on a farm in less than 2 weeks. Viral and just are concerned about this extensive transmission. Anders from scarves team analyzed the mutation on the mink farms and found it matched the virus found in some people in the region who fell ill. So we can see exactly how the virus spreads. It comes from humans, it is transmitted to minks where it spreads on mass and mutates in a manner we dont see in humans. And then it jumps back to the human population and thus to the rest of the world. Every 3rd corona case in Northern New England can already be traced back to the mink farms. Exactly how it spread is still unclear, but with ever more mutations in circulation, especially those from animals, the pandemic will become difficult to stop. A vaccine could lose its effectiveness and the people who have been ill might not be immune to the mutation. So we would never achieve herd immunity. And that is why culling task forces are now rapidly traveling through denmark. The animals are killed with Carbon Monoxide in boxes like this one. There then immediately incinerated, along with their valuable fur. Protective gear is mandatory as any animal might be infected. And here, we have to kill 39000. Monks on this farm will be busy for 2 and a half days. We have 30 workers, 5 vets, and a standby team of 5 to 10 men here. They will need at least another 4 weeks to work their way to all the farms. A total of 160. 00 farms are affected and there are suspicious cases on many more millions of makes have yet to be called peter pan and barack is an expert in food safety and there were no seats at the World Health Organization in geneva. Could you explain to us 1st of all, whats actually going on in the mix . How is the virus mutating . What happens is that we put into any population, human virus, and thats our cove, eat 19 birds. And of course just virus. This human virus has not lived up to the me and environment and therefore traumatization. When jumping from one meaning to the next indeed speak many forms, it mutates and try to adapt to the new and vitamins. And thats what we are seeing. We have the virus, you know me and allowed to space from one week to the make over a period of time. Ok. But the question is, could these mutations which occur in the spike proteins which are used to enter a host cell and are also targeted by most of the promising vaccines that are in development, undermine the progress that weve made on a vaccine. Thats very difficult to say because these mutations are difficult to predict and we have seen so far and the traumatic, weve seen one famous cluster finding variants in denmark. And he says that these will tend to indicate that it so would be to listen sibyl sensitive to potentially seeing bit early days when he had much more studies to to get better understanding of that. But what worries us is the potential for another mutation, another variance that has not yet its a pia. And that would be much more problematic with regards to a vaccine or will be more or easier to translate between him and so is the potential for one day, one patient coming out that hes not nice. Well and that not so nice. Could that occur in any other animal . Yes, you can look in any anywhere where the virus is allowed and appear to me. Tate wins jumping from one to the even if and only if you dont. And thats more nicky. It will happen in a population than where it continues to see create between humans and more likely to happen in ink. So for cows, goats sheep, it doesnt from initial studies, it doesnt. The virus doesnt seem to be in 15 cattle of peaks or sheep easy if he, if he cant its, its very difficult if hes not at all it up to these miners and therefore jumping from one count of the next. So when peter next would be a difficult process, i mean most likely the virus will die off and i are not marriage. Thats why in the me operation, it seems to be very well transmissible in between makes and therefore it has to jump quickly between one need to the next in these big farms or in and it has not been seen. C 2, its much more likely to have all that much species where its not like the 2 to 2 in favor is very modest or to translate between and humans. But why is that happening . What is it about that makes and to me it seems to have since there is spread 3 trucks and belongs very similar to the human wants and therefore the virus and its already an easy way to, to, to answer me response really sorry. And we use ferrets. We use their baby regularly as model animals when we just call them american citizenship. So its not surprising that meat has these natural affinity and society leading to the virus. So is this the right approach . Killing all of us makes its seems to be the logical approach. Because the only way to avoid it is to either protect the meat from the virus, meaning protecting the farms. The viruses that infect all these farms or protecting the humans who are working on these farms. And what we have seen in past months is that these seems to be very difficult or impossible. And therefore, the only logical solution is to remove that makes it and barack romney. Thank you very much. Think you could dogs spread of 19, a study by the university of crown and on the adam lucien school of Public Health shows living with a canine can increase the risk of getting a virus. Has one doctor has to take extreme hygiene measures with their pets, as its not yet clear whether owners were infected by the animal or from taking it out for a walk in public of into our science correspondent, gary williams. Now hes been looking into your questions on the corona virus. How long does immunity last . Once the disease is overcome . Straight off the bat, no one can really answer this at this point, but that doesnt mean that it isnt worth talking about on this is really a key question, especially with the vaccine approvals, apparently, just around the corner. Because immunity in people who got the disease will also sort of set the goal posts with the immunity that we can expect a vaccine to provoke. Although the 2 arent necessarily tied really closely to one another. Knowing about one will at least allow us to make a stab at guessing the others. So this is what we know so far about immunity and people whove recovered from covert 19, were over 10 months and, and so far as far as we can tell, very few people have gotten that a 2nd time just just a handful so. So thats positive that indicates average immunity could last least a year as long as with other coronaviruses that are less deadly. Possibly even 2 or longer, which was the guestimate force for sars. There have been worrisome results from studies that showed levels of antibodies falling in people who recovered from code at 19 just a few months later. But most experts say you shouldnt focus on that because thats to be expected. We focus on antibodies so much because theyre one of the easiest markers for us to measure. But there are many other aspects to an effective immune response. Ultimately, for societies at least the 1000000. 00 question, is it really how long an individual is immune after catching the disease . Itll be how long unity lasts after people get vaccinated. Thats what will determine whether or not we reach herd immunity only then will the pandemic. And ive been fizzling for any other developments on the virus schedule website, w dot com slash i would not take a but close to the book.
