Brent and the fact that most people say they are not surprised by todays verdict what does that say about the nonotion of an indndependent judiciary in turkey .

From the economy to people, many people who suffered serious covid19 symptoms and survived have rehabilitation challenges. Apart from the physical ordeal, the psychological repercussions can also have longlasting effects on patients. We met one survivovor who is ony gradually getting back on the road to recovery. And breve. The lung test of the rehabilitation clinic is still exhausting for this covid19 survivor. These are very positive results. Im glad. She is making great progress. She was admitted to the hospital with bronchitis and a severe fever. Her initial coronavirus test was negative, but she was later diagnosed with covid19 with severe pneumonia and was put on a respirator by a doctor. It feels a first like water running into your lungs. I was terrified and feared for my life. I almost had a heart attack. My heart hurt for hours afterwards. I screamed and cried. I was in real trauma for several days afterwards. She has lived with the diagnosis for the past six weeks and has spent the last two here. Shes one of a handful of ex covid19 patients. The others here are recovering from cancer or surgery. Therapy here consists of physical exercise, breathing sessions, and methods of relaxation. She spends a lot of time here on the cross trailer. It has only been three days now i have not had to sleep so much and lie down during the day. There is this strange, extreme tiredness. Tiredness and a longlasting loss of taste are typical symptoms after covid19. What is surprising for us is that the damage done to the nerves massively limits our patients mobility. The psychological strain is also severe. They survived a lifethreatening disease, and they keep thinking about what could have happened. She spent a lot of time thinking about her father. He was in hospital with cancer and the coronavirus in the spring. She was only allowed to visit when he was dying.

More and more former covid19 patients are being admitted to rehabilitation in germany. Health Insurance Companies have started covering the cost to ease the pressure on hospitals.

That was not possible for weeks. She plans to continue testing regularly, but for now, shes looking forward to life after covid19. Brent dozens of countries have launched Contact Tracing apps in an effort to keep the virus contained. It has been exactly one month since germany ruled out its own app. Tonight, we want to ask is it working . To answer that, my colleague is at the table with me. What do we know . Has it made a difference . Next theres two Things Health experts are looking at. How many people have downloaded the app thats one thing. In germany, 16,000 people have downloaded it 60 Million People have downloaded it in the first month. Its about 19 . An oxford study said in order for an app like this to be effective, at least 15 of the population have to use it. Another thing experts are looking at is how people are using this app. Are people registering that they have tested positive, and is this information being passed along to other users . The problem is that the app in germany is very data privacy oriented. They dont store user data, so its almost impossible to have any real statistics on how people are using it. Brent if you are not storing any data, that is proof that it is very conscious of data prprivacy. Is that a hindrance to actually prevent the virus from being spread . Yeah, data privacy experts are praising the app for how good it is in that field, but it definitely is a hindrance to how researchers and App Developers can look at how the app is working. In other words, the question of if the app is working brent we have to assume it is working, right . Everything is based on estimates so far. There is no evidence that the data privacy is actually making it worse. Some people are even saying it is more functional because the real important figure is how many people are using the app. Evidence says in germany, 16 Million People have downloaded the app. In other words, the more data privacy, the more people download the app, the better brent yes, big yes, less big brother. You downloaded the app on the day it was released. What has been your experience . I see you are still looking healthy. Thats right, and i still have my privacy. I downloaded the app, and it was pretty easy. You do it once. I have a low risk assessment. I have, like, a green box on my phone that says that i have not come in contact with someone who has the virus in the past 14 days. Thats a good sign. There were some problems at the beginning. Its at exposure login was not possible. When i went through the steps to turn that on, it did not change how the app was set, so i could not figure that out. Hopefully, that was not my fault, but there are reports of users experience being less than ideal, but so far, a lot of people have downloaded it. Brent thats good. The trust factor is really important. As always, thank you. A classic novel about berlins early 20thcentury underworld is enjoying a 21st Century Movie makeover.

He has just gotten out of prison and wants to get his feet on solid ground, but there is a monster that wont let him. The director transnsposes the protagonist to the present. The protagonist who cannot catch a break is francis, who becomes a criminal. We want to tell a story about characters. They demand innovation to understand where they are placed in a society. It is also a story about what it means to be black in a white majority society. Brent in the gaza strip, lockdown restrictions have been eased, and palestinian Football Players are practicing together again, and that includes a team of young amputee players, many of whom were injured in the israelipalestinian conflict.
