Challenges to Media Companies and they offer new opportunities to distribute their content from Community Building to pay walls. How can media organizations optimize their revenue models in the digital age . Joining our discussion this week on world stories. Another Strict Lockdown in france, fighting indifference to corona in turkey. But our journey begins in the usa. The city of el paso, texas, is one of the countrys corona hot spots stretching hospitals and Funeral Homes there to their limits. It paso is on the border with mexico, but no one is talking about the wall anymore. The pandemic is raging here. Numbers are soaring, right . Now we have about 241. 00 cases. Now, to contrast with about 45 days ago, we only have 30. But a lot of those people that you see going into these tents behind me. They will wind up inside our hospital, have authorities are already arranging to move patients to other cities. If the hospitals become overwhelmed, planning for months of strain, we have to make sure that we are ready for this winter. Not only here in el paso, but also around the country, resources are finite. There is already a backlog in dealing with the dead. Referee generated more outside the hospitals serve as makeshift more tarries. Funeral homes in the past so are so overwhelmed that families sometimes have to wait a week to burial off to one funeral. Director sam, selves are struggling to cope with this is the level of stress is very high because it is not comparable to how it used to be some months ago we had around 30 services per month. Right now were having around 18 reasons for me as this is where the economic effects of the pandemic can most clearly be seen. Downtown el paso seems abandoned by some money of all works just around the corner. For him, the president ial race is not over yet. North of President Biden is not going to be the president of the currents going to be donald trump. He feared his business might be hit by the pen demick, but now he has orders until july next year. Republicans, he says, are good for the construction sector. Despite his support for trump, he has his own opinion on covert 1000, specially after he tested positive. Everyone is going to get the virus and were going to fill up the hospitals, testing as well enough. The crucial instruments to avoid to this problem may get cordy nates 10 Testing Centers in the past. So he works for a private company that is being paid by the state of texas. But his main concern in the pandemic is not political. I dont have fully knowledge of what joe biden is planning to do in his administration. But until now we havent had any kind of difficulties with the current administration. I dont think its a matter of resources. The main concern is how to communicate to the people what to do or not. Trump supporters biden supporters to different sides that seem to come together. In a past 10 European Countries have reacted to the drastic increase in chronic infections with curfews and lockdowns. Frances new regulations are strictest of all impressions from paris even under lockdown, the french are taking to the streets as opposed to during the 1st 19 wave schools here are staying open, but teachers dont feel safe. We have between 20. 25 pupils per class. We are trying to impose social distancing, but in our classrooms, we can, it may still have a distance of 40 centimeters between each pupil. She said the moment simmers, you said you say we were hoping the government would reinforce sanitary measures, but they havent or at least not sufficiently. So we dont understand that. We fear the government is abandoning us to lash out. They are getting support from their pupils who have been blocking school and chances, and posting videos online that show a lack of social distancing. Also, unlike during the 1st private 1000. 00 ways, more shops open and large parts of frances industry are still up and running. And yet, this is still one of europes strictest. Lockdowns, with people only allowed out one hour a day and only within a radius of one kilometer of their homes. Most french think the government was right to confine them, but many criticize the method. I dont understand why big supermarkets are no longer allowed to sell books, clothes or toys, just because small shops that sell the same things are closed. The government is just not good at explaining itself, and this will cause lots of unemployment and bankruptcy. Why are they leaving big supermarkets open about closing small shops . Megastores often take in hundreds of clients and small shops, only one or 2 think theyre much safer. And yet the government is staying the course. Even though the spread of the epidemic has been slowing down. In turkey, despite an increase in infections, theres been widespread indifference toward the corona, regulations. The government is trying to change that the city of 16000000. 00 in which the corona virus is spreading. And one of the teams that are fighting to stop it was the last image on is a dentist, at least she was until the pandemic started it. Shes been a contact traces since march 1 of around 35000 in turkey. And here in your book, seen from here, the size of the city kelly scary. And i sometimes wonder where this endemic is headed. But as a doctor, i have a responsibility. I try to think positively and knowing that i help people this would motivates me and keeps me going there on the tracing team manages around 10 households a day. They work in shifts almost around the clock. The goal is always the same. Track down test and isolate those whove been exposed to someone with 19 and all of this as quickly as possible. Googles 1st case today is the collects is all family. The mother recently tested positive. Now the father has symptoms, trouble. Could you call a close up closer . If the test is positive, gergen will also try to trace his call texts. The whole family has to stay at home for the next 14 days. After each visit, protective clothing has to be changed. Job is time consuming and strenuous, but its worth it. She says. As in many other countries, peoples vigilance here has slackened in a recent survey. More than half of the respondents in turkey said the coronavirus does not affect a worry them. And critics also blame the government for this lack of concern because the Health Ministry no longer reports the number of new infections every day. But only the number of symptomatic patients john uncuffed, angelo, of the opposition c. H. P. Says the government is hiding. The real scope of the pandemic is thought so slim. Here in istanbul alone, the number of cases is 20 times higher than the tally from the ministry of health from. Im saying this with regret, but the figures and information weve given are not correct. You know, john is on her next house call. She does not want to take part in political discussions. She knows the debate about the numbers, but doesnt want to get involved that more and more people disregard. The coronavirus rules frustrates her being, which is surely good. It makes me sad. We are putting so much effort into this work. But whats the point . If so many act as if nothing can happen to them . And if this doesnt change, we wont see an end to this pandemic sticky because it goog and hopes that she will soon be able to work as a dentist again. But she also knows that her new job will be needed for quite a while. Germany is currently in the midst of a partial lockdown. Schools. Stores and businesses are open, but the government has restricted social contact among people. Many oppose the measure. Lynn alexanderplatz, in the popular shopping in strolling a safe distance, is not guaranteed safe. Politicians think thats why there are compulsory mosques even outside thats finished its own for i find it terrible. Why should i put on a mosque out here now . When nobodys working behind me, you have to be able to bring fresh air. Im with mine at all. No one i do not find it. Ok. And moss testament puts on in certain places because i mean that its really going outdoors what its actually supposed to happen in public buildings. I understand that church train everywhere, but not here in a Public Square in cuts to politicians need to explain more clearly what theyre doing to combat the pandemic of gun think in my view, the whole thing doesnt only depend on the politicians. The whole thing is a social, like many others in a democracy, people have to support it in some form or another. In the law. We will have to live with this far or somehow. And we actually need a social debate, how its going to look at exactly what can go through with mobile storage, because dont talk so much, something has to be pushed through. Now, will it go on like this, with the wave get higher and higher. And of course one has to austin question, what we still have to do not to lose do for news and what did not mom doing even more hardly possible for the restaurants and cafes in the capital. They have to close for a month. Again, this can be seen almost 5 kilometers away in the trendy district of friedrichs, on there are usually hundreds of people in this public extract, tourists, but also learn as i think everyone who is not affected is fine with it. So i dont have any big problems to do without now for a while. But also only because i dont walk in the Hospitality Industry and have nothing to do that. I can understand that people are angry and secure and that i asked iraq to stop some possession. I dont like thats left, but will they show up the same time . Most restaurants have invested a lot of money in hygiene measures, some officer to go to at least a little money and your life when its no longer forbidding your career when youre finally allowed to pursue it. Its your opinion when you can finally say it is freedom more important than homeland. We need artists in exile, living in berlin, march 20, 9th, in the dark. Dark mode is meant to protect our i preserve our batteries and help us sleep better. But researchers arent convinced the dark old really do the fall today in 60 minutes in the light of Climate Change africas mix of whats in store for the buck. What existed for the future, the books conquered to make a city the most to get insight, culture. Im an author and witness to world events. You know, thats all it was the hardest decision of my life. Because if you can talk on banking to germany, it was like a child and half blind told me
