U. To take in around 400. 00 miners can you tell us more about what exactly they agreed on well theyve agreed to take in those 400. 00 underage miners and thats a 1st step since there are more than 12 pozen people currently without a roof in morea camp into conditions weve just seen in their reports and among them more than 40000 children another 400 children will be relocated within the European Union and the situation was dire already in moria and its now becoming dramatic and thats why both both france and germany will try to convince other e. U. Countries to also take a more migrants from last fall so lets have a listen to what im going to marco the german chancellor had to say. Right.

Us President Trump is under fire again for his handling of the coronavirus in a new book veteran Journalist Bob Woodward says trump deliberately downplayed the danger posed by the virus and has produced an audio recording of the president admitting to doing so at a News Conference President Trump defended his actions he maintained he was not lying to the public insisting he did not want to cause panic nearly 200000. 00 americans have died so far and certainly im not going to drive. This country or the world into a frenzy and we want to Show Confidence we want to show strength we want to show strength as a nation and thats what ive done and weve done our lets go right to washington now do you have a standing by for us there are high abbey so how is the president s explanation for misleading the American Public on the coronavirus spend of make going down there. Well so we heard him there say that he was just trying to avoid causing panic and he was tweeting rather rapidly earlier even downplaying the reaction the outrage to these audio clips by saying woodward didnt release the tapes earlier so how terrible could they have been really trump has also said he didnt want to jump up and down saying there was a problem while there was a problem and we now know he understood that that he was aware of the deadly nature of the disease but was comparing it to the seasonal flu and he insisted the virus would be gone by summer that it was all under control but this audiotape shows he knew just how pressing the situation was and he simply was not conveying that to the American People certainly theres been some criticism of course considering what hes been saying but the white house and his administration are certainly spinning it differently well the democratic president ial candidate joe biden has come up pretty strong on this what is he been saying. He called it quote almost criminal that this is a life and death be trail of the American People this audio of trauma saying he was downplaying the pandemic is from march 19th to me but he continued to hold rallies after he made these comments to woodward rallies without social distancing rallies without encouraging people to wear face masks and even within the last week we heard mock biden for wearing one so the democrats along with the president ial candidate joe biden will certainly point out of the president not only lied to the American People but hes continuing to ignore the pandemic now that even as his advisors told him just how devastating this pandemic could be and now with more than 189000 americans dead the devastation is a reality unfortunately but how worried are republicans actually do they think this could further damage the president s prospects of getting reelected. Ill talk to a little bit about the latest National Polls show that biden leads trump in almost every category except the economy he does lead trump when it comes to the Coronavirus Response or what americans think that the better candidate would be to dealing with a pandemic but we have to remember this poll was conducted before all of this and we also have to acknowledge the fact that trump is fighting back some other criticism hes facing heavy backlash after reports last week allege that he insulted american soldiers who had died in combat and that he disparaged wounded veterans a poll also shows by the leading trump by 4 Percentage Points amongst military voters again that poll was also taken before these stories came to light so will this all of this be the knockout punch that takes him down in november all observers have watched him dodge crisis after crisis in the past as a candidate and as a president and he may very well do it again. Who have been reporting from washington thank you. For lets get a recap of our top stories here on the deja vu the leaders of france and germany have agreed on a plan to take in 400 refugee children from greeces morea migrant camp a massive fire has destroyed the facilities leaving 12000 people homeless.

Its about the environment still but Society Still about us on the brink spoke to some leading experts in the field. Just. As. Many schools closed their doors in march has covered 19 swept around the globe. 6 months since have posed unprecedented challenges students suddenly cut off from classmates and thrown into Remote Learning teachers navigating new technology and parents burdened with extra responsibilities. Some schools have chosen to keep holding back Classes Online other students and teachers are making a joyous return to their classrooms as a new school year begins. And they still insist im happy that the school is started and because i havent seen my friend and my teacher for a long time. Weve been locked in our houses and i forgot how the normal schooling looks. In the schools as a fundamental importance that theres nothing that can substitute schools so from our point of view. This is a huge joy to reopen our gates to our 1200 pupils. But the reopening is also a major safety concern how to bring millions of children and teachers back into schools or keeping them safe from the virus. As some schools struggle to reopen to make up for lost time others remain completely empty the picture varies greatly between countries as our correspondents around the world can explain here in uganda capito com Public Schools remain closed what you see here is a reflection of whats happening across the country right from elementary level to University Level classes remain closed the government is not sure when to reopen schools now especially with the rising cases of course 1000 now many teachers of already lost their jobs while youre on the government try to introduce lessons of radio and television but sustaining that became a challenge so many families have already described 2020 as the last academic year. Students are back in school throughout the whole of china including mohan where the epidemic has started its students need to wear masks there are social distancing measures and staggered schedules but otherwise schools are supposed to go back to their normal curriculum here in beit would the capital of lebanon the core of a 1000. 00 pandemic is not the only crisis that faces the educational system right behind me is an exhibit of the school out of 160 that were totally destroyed or damaged due to the collusive a 2 point explosion why the school year is only a few days away the destruction that was caused by the shock waves that explosion aggravated the calamity and residents already suffering from an unprecedented economic crisis. The German Government is ruling out a 2nd lockdown confident that the current testing tracing and tracking capacities will be enough to contain the current levels of corona outbreaks in the absence of a tangible Health Crisis and with the economy recovering faster than expected there is now an all out debate here in germany over whether the government wasnt too cautious in the 1st place a loud minority has been taking to the streets over this nationwide schools remain open but when it comes to the question which conditions like must apply that still regional patchwork. In march the kenyan government closed schools and colleges nationwide a certain measure that affected 17000000 learners across the country including among tribal communities as data when used interest reports. 2020 was the beginning of an exacting new chapter for vincent too Little High School but in mid march in response to cognate team the kenyan government closed all schools including Higher Education the measure disrupted the lives of nearly 17000000 students across the country for 16 year old too little its meant hiding his family cuttle out in the wild rather than to seeing an education. Develop us that was really exerted to do in high school because i have never been to boarding school. But i was frustrated when i was told schools would be closed now i miss the interaction with students and sharing ideas when the school. Long Distance Learning comes with other challenges to lead to simply doesnt have enough time for studying certain and i dont know its just wake up look after cut into something you know you can do cant concentrate when you try to study so much you fall asleep. On a daily classroom would be your boss and students for children even more until the kenyan Government Council of the 2020 academy kiya due to the coronavirus but for these must Say Community one qualified teacher is all that they have. 22 year old danny my side he usually teaches near the tanzanian border but now he has taken to for the cheering home village. One of your living in a Community Like bees they know saw and saw is a teacher and we have to have the kids otherwise the kids will miss our old form crossing the muscle. But experts believe theres a lot of walked down before schools can sift through the reopening kenya. I think the false point would really be training teachers once weve done the training then we need to look at our infrastructure for example if all building was able to accommodate a group of 20 goals how can we use its now tropical more due to less goes to a number of us do social distancing. When no schools remain closed for the foreseeable future. But its yet another day of hiding cuttle for too little counting down the days until hes able to resume his dream of an indication that perhaps over time could change his life so lets speak to david evans hes an economist with the center for Global Development david at these clothes is likely to have a lasting effects for countries like kenya these are likely to have enormous implications for these students lives and for the country as a whole these kids arent learning a lot of them have parents whove lost work so the students are working and the longer theyre out of school the less likely they are to come back to school once they reopen i dont lessons especially will be working and now i ask why do i have to go back to school and whats worse during the a bola crisis in sierra leone another example of a long Term School Closure School Closures led to a sharp increase in adolescent pregnancy so these can really be devastating to students you have something weve talked about earlier this week on the program that limiting the amount of encounters that children and young people have with the authorities can cause all sorts of problems we talk about africa that globally children are missing out on education all over the worlds. Its absolutely true at the height of the epidemic more than 1500000000 students around the world are out of school its an unimaginable number and even though some are coming back now there are many that still remain out a lot of kids dont have access to Good Information Technology in low and middle Income Countries fewer than a quarter of homes have access to the internet and so imagining delivering effective Online Learning effective European Union<\/a> and the situation was dire already in moria and its now becoming dramatic and thats why both both france and germany will try to convince other e.

And now its time for your questions to our science correspondent derrick williams. Just kovac 19 transmission change depending on whether its in that or if its hot and dry one of the great hopes last winter here in the Northern Hemisphere<\/a> back in february and march that covert 1000 would prove to be seasonal hasnt hasnt really panned out and in the last months a lot of researchers have come out with with often conflicting messages about about where and how environmental factors are influencing the spread of the disease any direct links between the war temperatures and transmission of the virus seem to still be pretty pretty tenuous to me but increasingly researchers are coming to a more united conclusion that the humidity the amount of moisture in the air could be playing a pretty big role in the spread of sars code to both those indoors and out in the evidence is mounting that dry air makes the virus spread more rapidly one new study out of australia claims that when a relative humidity falls just one percent in 1000 cases could rise by 7 to 8 percent the explanation on offer is this moisture air causes the aerosols and droplets that an infected person coughs out to grow larger as they absorb water vapor which makes them sink to the ground faster but when the air is dry the opposite happens then the virus containing droplets shrink as their moisture is absorbed by the surrounding air that makes them lighter and more likely to drift around at head level and be inhaled by someone else another. Dr that could well be playing a role when the air is dry is that it also dries out your nasal passages and theyre your 1st line of defense im against airborne pathogens like like sars co 2 when they dry up it also makes it easier for those pathogens to gain a foothold. Derrick williams that now so from this called 900. 00 special until next time take out. The. Story so that people are also for information provide. The means they want to express g. W. On facebook and twitter and facebook today in touch follow us. Life on earth whatever come. But. Coincidence. Or the improbable happened.
