The coronavirus lockdowns have simply been brutal im announcing a coded 19 Response Task force. On domestic and gender based violence. Domestic violence is rampant in russia for example where up to 40 percent of all Violent Crimes occur within families and reports suggest the cases more than doubled last month. Pope francis has meanwhile asked the world to pray for peace within families as the lockdowns endure. But experts say that women need to wreck to systems.

Welcome to our coven 1900. 86 for joining Us South Africa is gradually easing its lock down which was widely considered one of the worlds most severe limits on contact and outdoor exercise kept more families inside and resulted in a surge of violence at home. Life is returning to the streets of cape town but the sale of alcohol and tobacco are still bare and tensions are rising.

And im joined now by kelly opium in jiro who leads a u. N. Effort to curb violence against women and Elizabeth Ali shes an expert in Reproductive Health at the institute welcome to you both. Lets start with you we just looked at south africa but this uptick in Domestic Violence is a global problem and whats driving it. Thank you. Just these a global phenomenon we know that one city women face globally physical or Sexual Violence and in the majority they face these fightings may need them an act of violence but what they really want to emphasize its not just the mess the vitamins they meet the movement the other movements they have clearly indicate that its. Against women and they see its a form of violation that the happens everywhere at home at work at school when women get the are on their way to school and to work and will drive its much deeper and it doesnt have to do with some. Bad actors and acts it doesnt have to do with some drag them acts but the cash to do with power and control and how abusers success control although they fatness and women men get out in their lifes challenges facing families go beyond Domestic Violence and into womens Reproductive Health care the good luck institute says a 10 percent drop in Reproductive Health care and low and middle come countries due to the coronavirus would put modern contraception out of reach for a projected 15000000. 00 more women unintended pregnancies would shoot up same for newborn deaths and thousands more women would die during pregnancy there are also be 3000000. 00 more unsafe abortions elizabeth want to turn to you here theres a bracing numbers what are they look like for women and families. Youre right they are shocking numbers and this is just wish that 10 percent decline we dont know if thats what were going to see or not thats potentially a pretty conservative estimate of how services are going to be distracted because what we see here is that policies lack of access and redirect resources that are all going to threaten womens ability to access these services and its not its not going to play out equally in all countries and all women countries that are to have Strained Health care systems are going to suffer the worst consequences and people who are marginalized and all who are he had trouble accessing the service is those barriers are going to be further exacerbated during the 1900 and i mean this is really playing out in a context. Im sorry that you mentioned redirected resources is that what it takes to get things back on track here is basically redirecting those resources back to their original purpose here was there something more that needs to be done at a time of these lockdowns. There is a lot more that can be then i think there are 5 key actions that can be taken that are not just about resources its about how were using those resources the 1st is we need governments to declare and make it clear that sexual and Reproductive Health care is an essential service that women can access this care during lockdowns without fear of legal consequences for traveling for care we also need to protect and should we need to protect and strengthen the supply chains theres concern as the Global Disruption in supply chains and so we need to focus on how those are working at the national and regional level to make sure that sexual and Reproductive Health pharmaceuticals are making it providers and patients we also need to we need to dispense our pharmaceuticals different so we need to allow women to access contraception without a prescription we need to decentralise the distribution of those commodities and we also need to consider multipath just senses a contraception so we need to change how were providing those services to figure out we can also think about innovative models of care and that can be really important this time as an option so theres space to integrate and think differently about how were providing our care and then i think the 5th and really important point is we need to focus on the unique needs marginalized and honorable occupations that we need to make sure that they are not being forgotten when we are trying to ensure thats actually part of health care is being protected in this moment. Briefly what in what you do you get the sense that societies are taking action to do more against Domestic Violence at this time briefly if you could. Need to do much more especially when we know that Service Providers right now they face immense challenges and if we consider that. The basic Service Providers are wins hogan they jaish and that big have been struggling with financial state even before call the one thing what they face right now is even for them to close down themselves and we dont know in one year or in the long which women charge and they say should screen big hit in place to provide services for survivors so we need to provide support to the womens organizations to continue providing these services but also what we need in the longer term is. An increased. By did i look to programs that respond to violence against women and girls in the longer theyre all right we have to leave it there hell you can enjoy with u. N. Analysts but solely with a good Market Institute thank you both very much. Now its time for your questions its going our science correspondent there. Rushes or hi its a symptom of coverage 19. The w. H. O. Recently included rashes and skin discoloration on the fingers and toes and its official list of less common symptoms for a covert 19 they can range from from high of like groups of red bones to the larger flatter lesions to a to a condition that affects the feet that superficially resembles frostbite whats being dubbed. Toto it still isnt clear whether the virus itself is causing these symptoms directly or if they can be triggered by the bodys immune response theres also still a lot of uncertainty about how common different kinds of skin reactions are in different groups of patients and and also on the timing for when they show up studies are ongoing. Which medical professionals are responsible for and to painting a patient i couldnt find an unequivocal answer to this question but i can tell you what i did learn intimidation is one of the emergency procedures used to treat patients who are experiencing severe respiratory distress some emergency medical clinicians are trained to carry it out in life or death situations in the field because it involves placing a ventilating too deep into your trachea though its obviously much safer to perform an integration in the hospital where patients are sedated before the to Business Service so so i assume an anesthesiologist would generally carry out the procedure or a properly trained Critical Care physician. And before we go some.
