Carpenter cant perform at his usual venues because. Hes delighting retirement home residents but shows especially for the. Fellow im terry martin good to have you with us the European Union has joined the race to develop a vaccine against. Pledges worth almost 7 and a half 1000000000 euros. They were around the world joined the european commissions pledge conference on monday as the world wide death toll from the buyers exceeded a quarter of a 1000000 Commission President is calling it a victory for Global Cooperation but the fundraiser was just as notable for the no show lets start the pledging the e. U.

Germany was one of the leading donors pledging over 500000000 euros the money is earmarked for International Health organizations and Research Networks in a bid to speed up the development of a vaccine many Scientists Say it could be 18 months or more before a vaccine is ready for widespread use and when it is more money will be needed to ensure it can be produced in large quantities and distributed for a fair price around the world. Todays sprint was a great start for our math the marathon is the way i had know we need everybody on on board. United nations secretary general antonio caetera she described the funds as a dime payment he said that to reach everyone everywhere the world must raise 5 times that amount. Or earlier i spoke to mohamed when nero parola just from len castor university in the u. K. I asked him how the 7400000000 euros are going to be help us play the coronavirus. I think vaccine are really very expensive also says south mainly the development is not really too difficult and its less time to relatively cheaper to do but the main media are insular structures required is to take up a bill or to use it in such a way that it wants vaccine become available it is manufactured in the shortest possible time and it is just too good to have any corner of the water and this became even more importance of this knowing team because we know that diseases many infectious what you would have one country in the ward is still reporting a disease that i mean didnt start would be hanging on d the board at the same scale as it has been back in january so therefore the effort is we really have been started to ramp up back up ability and have a last resort says that once we need to have the fly we have the resources there. And i was mohamed when they are from Lancaster University in the u. K. Whats going to round up of some of the latest pandemic news around the world right now german state premiers are expected to approve a plan to allow all shops to reopen and get this League Soccer going again with new zealand reporting no new cases for a 2nd straight day Prime Minister just send down dialed into an australian Cabinet Meeting to discuss reopening borders between the neighboring countries malaysia and india have begun to ease part of their law down measures but both governments have urged caution as cases continue to rise and thailand reported its lowest number of new infections since march 9th with no new case and no new deaths. Lets get some analysis now from christiane hes a spokesperson for the World Health Organization in geneva mr lynn maya were hearing a lot about lockdown measures being relaxed infection rates dropping etc is the worst of the pandemic behind us. Unfortunately i dont think we can say that its very normal and very good in some ways that the lockdown measures of the nice people. Will not to be able to hold us for much longer thats our looks and we need to bring back some normal normality to life and get the economy of course restarts it or not damaged too much but the problem with the coronavirus with call it 19 is that its not like a water faucet its been turned off and does not want dripping anymore to the contrary its actually tripping quite a bit still the infection rates and they the infection rates have been lowered but that means we still have to be in sexual rates and we still have quite an amount of cases we still have people in emotions rooms who still have severe cases and we still have unfortunately deaths from coronavirus but what will be happening now is that we need to learn to live with the coronavirus at least for the foreseeable future in case we have a vaccine so we need to learn to deal on a daily basis with it where do you see then the biggest risks the main problem areas in fighting this pandemic right now. Well 1st its the infections that insert itself and it comes down to the testing because the more we test every suspect case the more we know and see a complete picture we hear now reports from Different Countries in the world that there might have been cases even early on when we didnt even know there was corona circling it that much could be possible but we need to look into this but again the testing of every suspect case would be highly important to understand the picture we face of every country around the world and when we know this and we know how to respond and we know how to hold events what to do in schools how to bring children back how to long to open a business again this is has an impact on everyday lives looking at europe what do you make of the way that germany is dealing with the crisis particularly its eagerness to reopen schools and the economy. Ok so bringing children back to school is really important because its bringing normality back to their lives but it has to be done in a step by step approach the whole reopening has to done in a step by step approach cuties a little bit your morning to how your cases are climbing again or not and that is possible because lets not forget the whole idea of the lockdown was to flatten the curfew remember the terms it was to spread out the cases over an amount of time we never said it would stop like cut off it would spread the cases out over an amount of time and thats exactly whats happening right now so with the step by step approach of all of it all a little bit more cautious see if its working to see if not too many cases are rising so that the Health System can cope with it that the hospitals can talk with it and then open more and open more and open more where this leads in terms of for example of a patients or what the now mallets he will be in august and september and october is difficult to say right now. Germany seems to be doing well if you look at the relation between infection cases and and death rates thats because thats needed a leading situation in europe. That that is good to see although of course every death digitally is deplorable is still in my thank you very much for speaking with us that was christian then miles from the World Health Organization in geneva thanks for having. Well as part of the gradual lifting of germanys lockdown hairdressers have been allowed to reopen this week for many here in berlin it was a welcome relief after some doit yourself disasters. After so known few here will ever take a wash cut and blow dry for granted again hair salons in berlin have reopened after 6 weeks of enforced closure for some customers it was really high time. I was cutting my own hair and it started looking awful but yourself i messed it up now the challenge is for both stylist and customer to wear face masks so that its going to please remove the elastic bands and hold the mask to your face. Now youve taken it off. So i didnt brief are you crazy. But it seems to be working. To as you can see im desperate my last haircut was in november yes we are here. For years. For. Ali and his coworkers are fully booked through the end of the month walk ins are out of the question. Now that people know were open again the phone has been ringing off the hook from morning till night but thats fine with me im glad. Plastic curtains provide some protection between customers during shampooing the new regulations are being strictly obeyed what matters is that the salons are at last open for business again many in the sector depended on state assistance she once said that she financially speaking its not the best situation but i think many are in the same boat and so many people have lost their jobs so i really cant complain. With them is the way i made good use of my free time for those ive never had 6 weeks off before. Furious for ive been very smart. Behind a new 6. Finally theres hair to be swept up again even wearing face masks at least people can hold their heads up high again. This is my personal lockdown is over at least as far as my hairdo goes thank goodness. Germanys look turns it is meeting today online that is to discuss the very future of its business with almost all flights grounded the german flag carrier is in dire straits and needs a bailout the question scuse me question is how much money is the government prepared to give to look turned and help big a stake to they want to help shape the companys future but will discuss details about possible bailout im in a personal take a look. Has been doing. Tons as flight shed fuel hasnt been this flight since the 1950 s. But its set to stay this way for a long time 90 percent of the German Airlines planes are grounded so wont ever carry passengers again. The carrier still has around 4000000000. 00 euros in liquid assets that is slowly but surely drying up around 60 percent of lufthansas costs a variable when its planes dont fly it spends less on fuel but thats not the case when it comes to employees thats why 2 thirds of them have been put on to short time work. The airline says it needs to get its planes off the ground again but even if they are allowed to fly there are challenges to overcome questions or need to be answered around seating with so many people potentially being crammed into confined spaces for example should all planes be altered or should all the middle seats and some rows just remain empty. Expects a significant drop in business flights in future his most important source of Revenue Companies have now seen that meetings can also go well by video and that a trip to the airport isnt always necessary. For more this was taught to under the bed hes an Aviation Industry expert and joins us from her what do you think is going to become. Good morning terry i think in general you can say its fair to say that most times it is better prepared than other big carry is going to really record turnovers recently and record profits and theyre still in much better shape than any other has had even problems before the krona crisis that said this is of course that huge the serious problem crisis for most times as well which sleep early on said is losing 1000000 euros per hour so i think its a certain issue of thing that most times it will survive this and might even be coming out strong at the other end than it was before in the context of the moffitt of the competition and of course its absolutely essential today that they reach a good deal with the german state i guess so losing a 1000000. 00 an hour 1000000 euros lufthansa wants the government bailout money clearly but do you think its going to have to give up some control over the company if it gets it and thats a hugely difficult and sensible question especially for most towns out i know this work quite well and he is really the prototype of the blueprint of a private enterprise who has actually led lufthansa 3 private company to the soaring heights even like last year still and now for him its a sheet of horace you know rio you have to give up his own on the ally and to have politicians sit on his board and rein in on his decisions so thats a really very crucial question how this is arranged and the fans if absolutely keen and very extremely keen to not give all of their hands too much of that entrepreneurialism weight and that when this is all over and people do start flying again what will air travel look like. Its a certain thing that it will look much different there will be many scenarios discussed in the industry even as we speak and look at times you just mentioned in your report earlier there was discussion about middle Seats Remaining 3 times as a band and this is from yesterday when they no prescribed applied to the past as to whether moscow already so that it was heath little be given out if theres enough demand theres probably very important for the island to be comically and theres no proof that it will increase the infection risk for passengers but overall the whole process of flying of how you arrive at the airport go through many new lady is Health Security in the future will definitely change the Passenger Experience probably for ever and to a spate an Aviation Industry expert in hamburg thank you very much for talking with us. Now for a brief look at what impact the current virus is having around the world Vice President amazon has resigned after the Company Fired whistle blowers who had raised concerns about coded 19 in its warehouses to embrace said the dismissals were quote evidence of a vein of talks city running through the Company Culture in april hundreds of amazon employees in the u. S. Went on strike over conditions. Venezuelan Authorities Say theyve arrested 2 u. S. Citizens among a group of alleged mercenaries involved in what caracas says was a failed in beijing government claimed the group wanted to capture venezuelas president Nicolas Maduro and bring down his regime. Many European Countries have closed their borders to try to curb the spread of credit and the effects are having an impact on some communities more than others lock down measures in france have hit migrants particularly hard many are in the northern port city of col a from where they hope to cross the sea to england conditions in migrant shelters were bad before but many say the law down has made them even worse. Lisa lewis visited migrant shelters of northern france and spoke to people there about how the countrys response to the Coronavirus Crisis is affecting them. Theres no let up in Police Procedure even in these times of coded 91 or whatever were asked to move on because we want to film whats been an almost daily routine since 2018. Migrants are told to move their tens a few meters once the police have left. The migrants put the tents back no one here wants to film their face but the migrants told us they feel harassed. Like you they dont see it as human beings they dont respect has been i think it by 41 if you dont wake up when they come they take away your temptation then we have to ask aid workers for a new one and wait for up to a week trying to observe social distancing here is difficult senator conditions are bad you know imposed by the were not allowed to go into town this is the beginning of a pandemic weve been stuck in these camps way some of us were taken to shelters or we had to stay up to 4 people in a room thats illegal. The migrants try to support each other as best they can but thats also more difficult these days this is where the college jungle was until 2016 readed was demolished at its peak some 8000 migrants lived in this camp conditions were bad but migrants managed to set up an infrastructure of sorts and they were able to help each other out now the authorities are trying to prevent the migrants from constructing another jungle by building fences like this one. Aid workers have had to reduce their staff at the come by half they say the governments response isnt helping the situation. This is a real step backwards for migrants human rights theres no legal aid for them any more evacuations continue the migrants keep getting harassed by the police you just saw people stand together in this crisis but these Vulnerable People are being left behind because you were the real you but Authorities Say that medical teams regularly check up on the migrants in the comes and that the evacuations unnecessary use of all. Were offering shelter for up to 750 migrants so you can get medical care. 353 people have already taken up that option hugh. The migrants are being evacuated every 2 days if they are camping illegally we need to prevent them from settling. In aid workers say there arent enough shelters and many of the migrants would rather stay here and try to cross and i never give up ill never give up one day i will get to england my dream is to become a doctor and have real freedom but a nice house and a nice life nice life mangas wants to join to have his brothers who have already settled in england but the corona pandemic has now made reaching the other side of the channel more difficult than ever. Did obviously lisa lewis who filed that report joins us now from paris lisa your report shows the difficult situation migrants and refugees are facing in northern france or the camps theyre prepared for a potential coronavirus outbreak. Well thats a very good question there were 3 con
