Matter to you. Really what ever is. It. Made for minds. Coronavirus doesnt discriminate that was a common refrain at the beginning of the pandemic. But people and systems do in the u. S. The virus is magnifying existing social ills and inequalities statistics show that black americans are more likely to die from the virus than whites. Worldwide it is america 1st in total cases and dads experts point to the countrys lack of pandemic preparation and the Political Division over prevention measures. With case numbers gradually falling once again can the u. S. Ward off another spike of infections and jets that fall disproportionately on its most vulnerable. Hello and welcome to georgia covert 1900. S. One foot in one foot out depending on the very weak u. S. President Donald Trumps response to even his very belief in the Novel Coronavirus seems the change of the pandemic may remain an inconvenience for the president but for Many Americans its a harrowing saga. Around 40000 americans are still becoming infected with covert 1000 every day nearly 200000 people in the usa have so far died from the consequences of or with the virus the worst affected are poor u. S. Citizens especially africanamericans and the system at the beginning of the pandemic nobody expected it to go like this not even the u. S. President. Initially played down the danger of the virus ignoring the warnings of Health Officials. Its going to disappear one day its like a miracle it will disappear looks like by april you know in theory when it gets a little war miraculously goes away i hope thats true. But the number of infections has risen rapidly and the u. S. Has become the country but the most coronavirus cases worldwide. New York Hospitals were pushed to the limit shortly after individual governors began to lock down their states in march trump raised hopes that the country would open up soon im also hopeful to have americans working. Again by that easter that beautiful easter day. Meanwhile americans have had to deal with wildly differing statements like to get in trumps advice often blankly contradicts the recommendations of his Health Officials in this way he ignored advice to wear a face mask in public for a long time instead he made fun of his democratic rival joe biden for appearing in a mosque at her memorial day event on top of this trumpet spread misinformation for example that children are immune to cope with 19 or suggesting that injecting disinfectant could work as a treatment. And then i see the disinfectant but not. In a minute. Injection. Or almost a cleaning dance it sounds interesting to me so my dont think lazer he explained there mark was meant ironically when the number of cases rose in june and july after the initial easing the president adopted a different tone. Resuming his daily coronavirus briefings trump expressed the recommended Wearing Masks and i will use it even recommended against going to bars and i say if you can use the mess. Then this moment came another surprise us journalist robert woodwards latest book rage hit the book shelves the books that trump new coke at 19 was deadlier than the flu in february i mean you name it goes through air thats always tougher than the touch another touch you dont have to touch things right but the air you just breathe the air thats how its passed yet so thats a very tricky one thats a very delicate one. The message was a Perfect Point to tuck for by. Your own president ial election takes place in early november over 109. 00 out of comp ain appearance in michigan biden summed up his views. But experts say that if youd acted just just one week suitor 36000 people would have been say it reacted 2 weeks sooner back in march 54000 lives would have been spared march and april alone. And so do us a remains the country with the highest number of infections in the world the number of unemployed after months of lockdown in many states remains high. Lets take a closer look at just how disproportionately the pandemic has hit american communities. These numbers are from the midwestern state of wisconsin where white residents make up 80 percent of the population but 67 percent of infections are by comparison black residents make up only 6 percent of the population but 11 percent of current infection and close to 20 percent of deaths. A similar just similar disproportionality with hispanics we should note however that the ethnic category hispanic can overlap with white and black. Or white lets dig a little deeper into this with joshua garone hes an assistant professor at the university of wisconsin in madison where he studies the sociology of Public Health josh good to have you with us help us put this disparity in perspective why are minorities more likely to get covert and die from it in wisconsin. Well the answer to that question is really based on the intertwining of racism in capitalism in the United States if we take a step back and you really think of any group and you limit the places they can live and you limit the places they can work and you limit their transportation and you limit their wealth and you do that for a long enough period of time you segregate them and then you introduce a pandemic these are the sorts of effects youre going to see in any group and thats what weve done in the United States weve racialized that weve created a racial hierarchy and this is what weve done to black people to brown people to Indigenous People we disenfranchised them we just invested in them this invested in their neighborhoods in their workplaces we have literally destroyed their homes their businesses their livelihoods really their lives their bodies and we have done this over a long period of time thats the American Experience thats the american experiment and if you keep running that same experiment over a long enough period of time you were going to get these same results over hundreds of years youre going to get these results when a pandemic emerges the pandemic does not create new realities on the ground in terms of the racial realities of the United States it simply exacerbates the existing realities the existing inequalities and thats what weve been seeing in the country and thats what were seeing in wisconsin especially in the city of milwaukee just want to set the social benefits play a role or the access or lack of access to social benefits such as Health Insurance or paid care paid top paid leave time i should say. Absolutely its enormous and thats enormous universally but again what weve done in this country is that we have created a racial order in which the people who are most likely not to have access to those benefits which are not universal anyhow are ethnic and racial minorities so they are people they are brown people people of color engage in as people they are on average less likely to have access to those exact benefits and as as as anyone could guess if you dont have access to health care or Health Insurance if you dont have access to some sort of secure income a guaranteed income or to food or to housing or any of these things you are going to suffer when the pandemic hits that carves out the basics of life in many ways and creates these difficulties and some people one might argue this is about more about poverty urban poverty or Socio Economic status you would say that those 2 things Socio Economic status and race here in the u. S. Are much more tied together in tethered together and thats why we see these results is that fair to say absolutely from the beginning thats the history of this country is the intertwining the tethering of race and and political economy of race and economics you cannot understand the story of the United States without understanding how racism and capitalism are inextricably connected and have been from the start or i just room with the university of wisconsin thank you very much. Thank you. All right now its time for your questions to our science correspondent there williams. Can you can track covert 19 through a blood transfusion. In general diseases that primarily affects the respiratory system are not known to be transmitted via blood transfusions and according to National Health authorities like the w. H. O. And the European Center for disease prevention and control there have been no documented cases so far of that happening with copd 19 despite that reassurance lots of people have worried about this question i think because of the reports that the virus can cause blood clotting particularly in later stages of the disease but it looks like that symptom though indirectly driven by the virus is actually probably directly due to 2 deadly cascades that it sets in motion in the immune system that lead to hyperactivity in blood clotting cells not by viruses in your bloodstream that said since a few studies have shown traces of virus in a small percentage of blood samples from people who are caught at 19 most organizations that take blood donations are now also taking a lot of precautionary measures as they collect it theyll probably now check your temperature before you donate for starters and you should also expect to fill out a questionnaire detailing your travel history if youve had over 19 and when how you felt in the last 4 weeks and whether youre aware of any possible exposures and of course if you test positive for the virus any time within a few weeks after donation you should definitely inform the collecting agency all those precautions i think make sense but but in general if transferred. Common way to pass on this disease i believe that by now we have heard of of many cases where it happens and we happened. All right our science expert Derek Williams there with the answers to your questions and finally how about a coven free flight thats what it least flag harry out tallia is promising some flights between rome and milan are going to be tagged only for passengers who have tested negative for the coronavirus they either undergo testing at romes airport or they show proof of a negative test in the last 72 hours before departure ill tell you says it might expand the measures to other routes as well. All right and thats all for us from this 1000 special if you want more you can check out the dedicated coronavirus section of the deeds of the website w dot com thanks for joining us and as always well see you next time. Im lecturing in missing free assistant Distance Team a feature of mobility the wheel is. Worn leastwise 19 appears to be fleeing from the brakes on the elements ordinary car is firmly fixed ones are back on the block and there are really no alternatives. Made in germany. To the point of strong opinions clear positions International Perspectives. Things are getting in. Basically strains between the e. U. And china are the 2 sides have been hoping to sign a landmark investment deal in reality though theyre hardly on speaking to us why find out also the point shortly. To the point. Of being 60 minutes on t w. A mensa patient compatible with. Most muslim women choose between their faith and selfdetermination. Thats why in the preamble to the militant feminist looking dude i dont want anyone to tell me that the russians were ahead stuff or not. Women are striving to reform their islam with traditional prejudices. From. September 24th on t w. Is this what the future of transportation looks like probably not and hes not a time soon but when todays inventors and visionaries look at the streets sidewalks highways and even Agricultural Land of the present they see vehicles that could soon be dusty exhibits in museums in the midst of change and thats our theme today are made from a to b. The mobility of the future its good to have you with us. Well theyre among the most popular Passenger Vehicles of the present s. U. V. S what began as a bare bones military vehicle the Sport Utility vehicle or as u. V. Is now with the most popular set of wheels on the road todays versions may be better engineer than their predecessors they are still expensive large and not very economical critics say they clog up traffic and pollute the air they are a huge earner for the Automobile Industry just why are s. U. V. S so popular what is it that fascinates so many drivers my colleague multirole a common way to take a look. Faster. Stronger. Bigger. All of the worlds people are crazy about s. U. V. S. Or with being used as a status signifiers. Just the greatest feeling of driving around in the flesh. Other problems that they cause. They know youre. Trying to. So lets get into gear and check whats behind the hype why is the world so obsessed with s. U. V. S. 40 percent of all Passenger Vehicles sold worldwide are some form of s. U. V. Thats more than twice as much as just 10 years ago just. In india in the e. U. One in 3 new vehicles is an s. U. V. In china its even more in the us its almost one in 2. Producer perspective it makes a lot of sense to produce a car that looked like it here because theyre able to extract higher margins high Profit Margins than it will be not much more expensive to produce manufacture but they will be able to. Like price like 4050 percent higher so Companies Profit from the s. U. V. Hype but thats only one side of the story because they wouldnt build them if people wouldnt buy them like crazy. Shrink when the s. U. V. Boom started in the us he helped Major Car Companies sell more of the. As a Marketing Consultant and if you ask him the secret as to why people are so attracted to s. U. V. S is rooted in our brain. To put it very very simply our brain is made up of 3 different brains the cortex the limbic system and the reptilian brain constantly talk to each other but each of them has a different job. The cortex is responsible for wrestle thinking it helps us make decisions solve problems crunch numbers everything thats kind of complicated limits system is all about emotions. And the reptilian brain isnt charge of our most basic instincts it makes sure we have breathing controls our sex drive and our fight or flight response s. U. V. Is red julia is a. Do you know car bible and reproduction im stronger and more powerful than you i mean if you come with a little car and i have a b. S. U. V. And we crash. Youre going to die and im just going to have to clean a little bit my issue with the media projecting this image that the world as never being so dangerous all 7 point one magnitude earthquake has hit Southern California is massive Tropical Cyclone triggered a tsunami militants have attacked the Stock Exchange building you want to be in a small car when those of us work around you know you want to be an s. U. V. Thats. The road Building People took. Is known. As u. V. s appeal to our most basic instincts and skull makers target exactly those but of course s. U. V. Drivers would never admit that theyre just following their primal urges they give a more rational justification. If you look at surveys as to why people are buying s. U. V. S many will say because theyre safer and yes if youre in an s. U. V. And you crash with another car youre less likely to die. But s. U. V. S have a pretty high center of gravity and that makes them prone to rolling over which is actually really dangerous and also kind of obvious. They know the reality is that the higher you are the more chance you have to roll over is more dangerous to have but it doesnt matter the rate you know brian as i say i feel stronger when youre on top of might be Something Like a lamb space so by the time most cars get taller imagine youre in a smaller car in fact fake and you see all those higher car taller cars than you might be incentivized to get the color car to just do it right then and not be like intimidated by other people that. People who drive s. U. V. S want to feel safe even if that means putting other side risk the front bumpus off many s. U. V. S for example are so high that. More likely to suffer serious head or upper body injuries in a crash so s. U. V. Drivers are gaining something here at the expense of others and thats not just the case for road safety. Board and more s. U. V. S in the fleet which means you have much leverage than the small cars and therefore they are higher yet the actual silt will any fuel any gamble any more then you have to do it. The growing number of as you visas in fact the 2nd biggest cause for the rise in c o 2 emissions since 2010 ahead of heavy industry and aviation. Emissions from other types of Passenger Vehicles actually went down over the same period. And all this is not really news to us we know s. U. V. S are bad for the environment but its just too easy for us to brush aside these concerns. Cortex things about abstract and complicated things that way in the future like Climate Change and how we can prevent it our emotional limbic system however is more of a live in the moment kind of person and like self fleshy that brand us u. V. Looks and wants to drive off in it now and this instant gratification will often outweigh the distant an abstract concerns like Climate Change to tell me that the environment is going to be bad in 1520 years that didnt really connect with me ive been there in 15 years so you know so we have to make people realize. That was used today and what they can experience today as some consequences of that today. And people around the world realizing thats more and more that still doesnt stop more and more people from buying s. U. V. S or industries and up to it but you know i just want you not to talk about trying to go i mean you have to talk about putting them down yes now you got me going to should be sacked. Because she tried to. Do that than me you didnt just. Need to have factored into taking direction and like more efficient engines more electricity growth but also worth more cars. And also shorter distances travelled. The villain preacha soundly capable of rational thinking and yet why its to like the very things that are bad for us. All right if cars can be seen as an extension of their owners egos what should we surmise about those who want to ride smaller more efficient electric like this little guy created out of sheer utility and definitely not sex appeal we sent our reporter to switzerland to talk to a man whose vision of the future is much more practical and emotional. 0 emissions no accidents no traffic jams then getting from a to b. Will be safe healthy and relaxed maybe. Ill give it a try. This is a prototype and a clip there is testing it he teaches at the university of in switzerland his work focuses on the future of mobility. Oh why are you driving such a tiny car theres only room for 2 the range is small so why doesnt it because thats the future. But i think we need them ability revolution i think and micro mobility the more intelligent use of cars cities and space is the only way to preserve mobility. What do tiny cars contribute to that. Only occupies one 3rd of a standard parking space thats one aspect of another is that its electrically powered so its more sustainable and average Car Occupancy no days is 1. 00 people and the car spends 93 percent of the time just standing around so this car is perfectly adequate for getting about in town. Were bought instead if the whole thing would not have a better more ecological. Part of it although i dont even like summer an alternative but i live in the countryside so i have a long ride into town but what i see the future is intermodal that is ill take public transport sometimes take the car to transport stuff or go out with my children plus electric scooters and other new things will come along and theyll be a whole range of Mobility Solutions and tiny cars a one element past. Perfect. As for drugs like a toy car. This is so how will we be getting around a few years from now even one example so i want to go to berlin in the future well have apps on a full on the. Platforms where you enter your priorities efficiency cost sustainability. And when and where you will get corresponding recommendations including an itinerary. That my smartphone will tell me where i have to go and when and which means of transport ill be using refined it will deal with payments as well leaving. Them to says we should do away with Combustion Engines in cars and hes shared cars rather than own one. I have the impression that its still a long way off people want to own their own cars and keep the cars theyve bought for as long as possible 1015 or 20 years and they run on gasoline something that is your vision simply unrealistic if we dont always be some private only shot of cars but its unthinkable to cover the entire planet with private cars even with everybody owning the room in terms of climate protection out of the question. With. The coronavirus pandemic has seen people shift away from often crowded trains and buses and use their cars more. But clay been there is a champion of public transport as part of the mix is his vision already obsolete. The industry was already going through a process of transformation a team has led to a slump in sales. And change and reinvention has increased dramatically. In the sense a lecture of mobility can be fun it doesnt mean doing without all the good stuff as many people still seem to think he also says theres no way around it. Or right of cars will look different in the future chances are they will also sound different a lot of us probably dont give it much thought but the noise is a car makes matter not just for the gear heads love the sound of an engine revving for everyday safety if you cant hear it you might not know its coming and thats why sound is being programmed into electric cars which are otherwise almost silent finding the right sound thats an art. For sound designers Combustion Engine noises are as complex as symphonies. And they provide the basis for developing artificial motor sounds for electric cars at present they sound like this. In between were going to consider the mating call of a stack. Of country or a tiger whatever is not the chirping of a sparrow. Office mature sound like that does something to a driver men are said to meet bellowing noise that signifies. Time of greatest does this buzzing sound 0 india doesnt have such an immediate and powerful impact but it could come to signify another kind of power thats expressive in its own right and of power. The challenge is to develop that power for electric cars. To move really cheat. Disempower. Car dealer benyamin davidge says a timid buzz just doesnt do it for him he loves the full throated growl and roar of 500 horsepower. Feeling. Thats just part of it for many people with. The big engine big sound great sound. That means performance passion fun behind the wheel when everything good and exciting about driving as you head into the sunset in your sports car to move on and going fast. But how can a letter vehicles be fitted with a truly authentic sounding fake sound. In this were going 151617 kilometers an hour the noise is minimal im going to tweak the sound quality. Ive just boosted the higher frequencies. A new e. U. Regulations says new electric cars will have to be equipped with an acoustic vehicle alerting system which makes a sound at low speed entering reversing the. Its not that the e. U. Wants to make the world sound better and cooler for us all its about safety you have to be able to hear if an electric car is just 10 meters away heading at you or 20 kilometers an hour. And the sound has to be distinctive and easy to hear this was fish could of. Sound designer just want to shape the experience of those inside a car as well as outside its also about branding. The spot im 50 years ago most cities had a special distinctive sound and it had to do with the substance of the cars the sound was authentic just like i also came to stand for stability and safety those times over now you can fake everything so you keep wondering does anything actually sound like what it really is is. Driving pleasure reliability safety and authenticity can this dont be designed to suggest all that. Well it does seem like everything can be imitated reproduced or fake these days the often quite convincingly or the battery or Combustion Engine cars still roll along roads but if the entire journey were virtual across a virus has decimated global terrorism theres one sector that stands to benefit from the pentagon and its associated travel bans are a Virtual Reality industry after all just because we cant travel doesnt mean we cant be transported. Headfirst into the Virtual World can we really go on a journey without travelling and how does it feel im giving it a try. Ive always travelled as a reporter but ive also travelled a lot in my free time ive backpacked through asia and australia. And im starting to get itchy feet again. Over the side but times have changed. I take a trip to the i. T. Experts at the university of hamburg french dynaco runs a Research Group studying human computer interaction zz im going to take a trip in his Virtual Reality laboratory. Teleport at the touch of a button i can fly anywhere i desire automatically. Crashed and. Im back at the old guns a rock formation in the australian outback. While. The view is incredible. But its not australia i cant feel the hot wind or hear any animals. I travel to the all goes almost 20 years ago we spent many a night out in the open it was a journey outside of my comfort zone and one on never forget it was hot and not all the animals were friendly you can ever have virtual experiences like that ok. We mostly experience things with our eyes and ears you have no sense of touch or temperature here to include all the senses youd need to wear special equipment like a david suit data gloves and lots of cables thats not what were aiming for and its not really available yet anyway because it is but Virtual Reality does make more extreme traveling possible i can take a drive on the moon for example or i can climb Mount Everest things i could never do in real life. In the gaming industry as a cussing and shit Virtual Reality towards in one game well traveler my avatar randomly land somewhere on the planet so my job is to figure out where i am. The Tourism Industry hardly uses Virtual Reality as a tool but its stealing with other problems at the moment due to the coronavirus pandemic and the other problems lie ahead technology is moving forward at every rapid pace many believe that in the not too distant future will johnnies will become competition for tourism in the real world. In the next 510 or 20 years and well have Virtual Worlds that you wont be able to distinguish from real life at least in terms of sound insight as much so that means well have to develop a new sense to know if somethings real or not exactly. Its interesting ethically i mean i always have to tell people that the reality is virtual real and were always having problems like that today i cant tell if the nooses fake or a photos have been retouched and b. Are technologies of the future will bring them to a whole new level. Mixing up realities that wont happen to me its easy for me to tell that this journey is virtual its great but i feel sick now i need to break out. Sometimes your movement in the real world doesnt match what youre experiencing in the Virtual World it can lead to a conflict of the senses youre visually experiencing Something Different than the body is and it can lead to feeling a bit queasy that was exciting but id rather travel in the real world this year im going to go on a bike till its good for social distancing and good for the environment. And while were talking about 2 wheelers what comes to mind when you think about a motorcycle rally early men clad in leather you may be behind the times the fact is more and more women are heeding the call the open road and in recent decades theyve carved out their own space for clubs rallies and group rides with their own Market Brands are beginning to take notice. Well documented by one thats long been dominated by men. The fish is a women only event they want to break the stereotype. Thats its money cannot win by money you know your children partner at home called friends you havent seen for a while get on your motorbike and head to pet for lads to do something thats just for you. For years ago they were called to make founded whats now europes biggest women only motorbike festival petra let. Her aim was to get more women interested in motorbikes and to connect them with each other. For fun calling every year we see a handful of women who dont have motorbike licenses and who arent into the scene but the next level they have a license and come by motorbike at home. And having an impact on the market since 2011 the number of women with motorbike licenses in germany alone has risen by around a quarter to almost 5000000 and. Still more than twice as many men have motorbike licenses the industry remains very male centric. Its difficult when you go into a store i wanted something for me with different sizes and i was kind of intimidated their only guys in the store there guys they dont like even talk to you or if im on the road with my friends. To introduce themselves to my friend but they dont even like shake my hand thats been in my home to see all awareness is growing and as a target group were taken more seriously but theres still a long way to. For the motorbike market gets more female friendly especially in terms of clothing so nothing since attention to it. In the past women were often just used as decoration to sell much to buy. But thats changing slowly and the industry is taking note women by kids are a force to be reckoned with. These women are born to be wild the global Motorcycle Market is riding high worth some 100000000000 euros in 2000 to 18 its expected to keep growing and thats some pot to women. 2 wheels 4 wheels big car or small louder quiet transportation and travel is changing and were getting from a to b.
