Well, its tough. Yeah. I mean you, as you can probably tell, i wasnt quite old enough to experience it myself as a football fan, but there are some things that just kind of football folklore that you know. And, you know, encountered anyway and of course everyone seen plenty of playing clips of maradona as incredible footballing skill. You know, one player who has always been a massive fan of maradona as hes gary lineker there in the striker who played against him in that world cup, in 1906, in that game where maradona school of the hand of god go. And then, you know, the one i mentioned off was regarded by many people as one of the best post of his time and has released this statement on twitter. His tribute to Diego Maradona, he says that maradona was by some distance the best player of his generation. Arguably the greatest of all time off to a blessed but troubled life. Hopefully hell find some comfort in the hands of god that gary lineker tribute to his personal hero Diego Maradona. And im sure well be hearing very many more personal tributes to a legend in the world of sport, from many other top down exporters are going to the news that this has just broken. This is a sad news now, as you outlined, he dominated international football. Also, Club Football is he indeed the greatest footballer . Weve seen. You know what i mean there are 2 current contenders. You know bobby vying for that tods as well playing at the moment. Christiane, of an i was a little messy. But you know, in very many peoples eyes, Diego Maradona is generally genuinely untouchable. Like i said, hes revered as a saint in the already very religious city of naples for the, you know, service is he rented to napoli in the syria and also in international competition. And his nickname in argentina is dios, that means cause hes really a diety in the world of sport. Theyre very, you know, whats the before i let you go, whats behind that fervor . Because i dont, i cant recall or see now fans expressing that type of its not a love, its devotion to the sportsman. Whats behind that . Absolutely. Well, 1st and foremost, its obviously his very singular talent. You know, in the case said in his tribute, he regards marriage on its, weve been easing the head and shoulders the best player of his generation. He did things on a football pitch, which fans players, coaches footling, enthusiastic, had never seen done before, and probably never dreamed to have been possible. The way control the ball the way you moved around the difficult pitch. His obvious love for the game that he was playing, all of those things. And when you combine that with the pride which people in naples feel for this napoli, the pride for which argentinians feel, you know, for the National Team in a sport which is so loved in that country. Then you know, you can kind of come to understand just how it is that maradona is a figure of such stature. Thank you so much for coming in greatly appreciate it. And just to, were a recap for you. Diego maradona, a towering football legend has died at the age of 60. His attorney announced he died of a heart attack. Donna was the captain of the argentina National Team that defeated germany in the World Cup Final in 986. He had been in poor health in recent years, and earlier this month he underwent surgery for a blood clot in his brain. Were going to turn our attention back here to germany where german shows on the americal and regional leaders are meeting Via Video Conference to consider changes to the partial lockdown that went into effect at the start of november. While theyre looking for an approach that could allow the country to ease restrictions ahead of the coming holiday season, the number of the new code infections has leveled off this month. But Health Departments have reported a record 410 covert related deaths. In the last 24 hours reports indicated authorities could extend the partial lockdown until just before christmas. Were expecting an announcement from chancellor merkel any moment now. All right, and before that, lets bring in our d. W. Political correspondent, michela mikaela. Americal chancellor angela merkel, i should say failed to convince state leaders last week she made a pitch. They didnt really buy it. Do you think they will close ranks this time around and present a united front this evening . They will because before this was leaked to the press, this is the draft theyre sitting over right now. This time considerably more. Coordination has gone into this. Clearly, all sides have recognized, particularly the chancery that they need to present a united front when they talk about what they initially called the Long Term Plan stretching into january on how to deal with covered 19 and how to allow for a bit of breathing space. So people actually can have a christmas and what looks pretty certain at this stage after theyve been sitting together or well actually in front of their screens for some 4 hours now, is that there will be a break from this partial lockdown to a certain degree at least in the sense so that families and Close Friends can gather that up to 5, or maybe even up to 10 adults can meet from different households. Children are discounted. So and another requirement we might see implemented is that the Christmas Holidays start a bit early. That all School Children have their 1st day off on the 19th of december, so that there is more of a cooling off period, more of a kind of current teen opportunity at least before they might see. Their grandparents shops are due to stay open. But quite clearly the message here, once again, that the onus is on the individuals responsibility to make sure that all unnecessary contact as theyre called, are avoided. Why do restrictions need to be taken right now . Well, although germany has managed to successfully come out of the exponential phase of growth, that was uncontrolled growth in case numbers. And were actually seeing those decline to some 18000 new infections in the past 24 hours. As you mentioned, theres a wreck or number of deaths, 410, and also the intensive care units are beginning to fill up here in germany. And that was the aim all along to keep infection rates at a level where the Health System can still cope and germany has been dipping in and out of that red zone where the system could get overstretched. And thats why this pos, a lockdown was implemented. And it isnt really showing the kind of easing everybody had hoped for quite yet. In our reporting, thank you very much. Today marks the uns International Day for the elimination of violence against women. And amid the coronavirus pandemic, reports of Domestic Violence are surging. U. N. Data shows there has been a 30 percent rise in reported instances of abuse in countries such as france, cyprus, and singapore as lock down measures forced people to stay home. Even before covert 900 hit. Statistics showed that one in 3 women that experienced physical or Sexual Violence from intimate partner at some time during their life, violence against women is also a human rights violation. And in peru, gender based violence has been a problem for years, but just one percent of the abuse cases reported there last year led to convictions. Women say the countrys Justice System is failing them. When mikaela, performer and teacher with 20 years old, she was raped by a theatre instructor using the excuse of helping her to explore art. He made her remove her clothing and then assaulted her. He did the same with 16 other students. For 3 years, the group has been fighting to have the man prosecuted. Despite the allegations, the peruvian Justice System concluded there was not enough evidence get a letter saying that your case of sexual abuse was closed due to lack of evidence. That makes you listen again. In this and believe what you were told the 1st time, you made the accusation that youre lying, that youre doing it to get attention and that your life is not worth it. In peru, gender violence affects all social classes. Equally. Viruss experience inspired these 2 books. Shes a Television Presenter and also a victim of gender violence. Her attacker was her former partner, her case is still waiting to be resolved. Impunity is like a cancer that eats he walk and kills you. Because it doesnt allow things to change. Its not enough to punish only violence the ends in death. We have to focus on that slap that we have to focus on psychological aggression. Because if we are only going to react when women are dead, its too late. In peru, 66 percent of women have reported being victims of violence are not to contraire us is pushing the parliament to address the issue today, a member of congress. She was brutally attacked by her exboyfriend. Now she promotes an agenda to end the violence inflicted by the state itself. Institutional violence in a situational violence is violence perpetrated by state agents through the Justice System. For example, police officers, prosecutors judges, and medical examiners. There are many cases of people who report violence means that at the time of reporting there riddick to minors, to blame it, and then subject it to more violence. Images the causes they look at. Were seeing there have been cases in which the police have accused the victim, and this victim has ended up being victimized again and again and beat him at the payment maybe in 1. 00. Of the 60000. 00 accusations of abuse against women reported in peru this year. Less than one percent lead to convictions in this palace of justice instead of offering impartiality on laos, impunity. And our minder of our breaking news story this hour arjun time football legend. Diego maradona has died at the age of 60 after suffering. A heart attack at his home in florida underwent surgery for a bleed on the brain. Earlier this month is widely regarded by football fans around the world as one of the greatest players of all time. Youre watching the different events live from berlin, stay tuned for more court of our business and talk over 1000 special program thats coming right up. The fight against the coronavirus pandemic has the rate of infection been developing. What does the latest research say . Information and contacts the coronavirus update. Nineteens on t w. N. U hears us, were going to review in her last years german chancellor, well bring you a man and youve never had to have surprise yourself with what is possible. Who is medical really what moves and want to talk to people who follows her along the way, admirers and critics alike. How is the worlds most powerful woman shaping her legacy . Joining us from eccles last hour, as vaccines receive approval and become available to the world, the next questions, ethical, such as, who gets the vaccine 1st . Not only do we have to take into account which age groups to prioritize, but also which jobs . Frontline Health Workers around the world are already demanding better protection. And how should distribution work around the world . As it stands, rich countries are already preparing infrastructure and buying up future doses by the billions that leave poor countries already grappling with Inadequate Health care systems. Struggling to secure their own the Fair Distribution of a Coronavirus Vaccine looks to be one of the major challenges of the coming months. If not years. The World Health Organization who will hear from later says the world cannot afford to get it wrong for time is running out to prepare a framework for getting any vaccine to everyone who needs it. Its a huge achievement for the scientists at the university of oxford. Together with drug maker, astra zeneca, theyve developed their own corona virus vaccine. Researchers say its most effective when patients receive a half dose followed by a 2nd full dose a month later. The developer say it offer several advantages over competing vixens, it can be stored at refrigerator temperatures for more than 6 months, making it easy to distribute and astra zeneca claims it can be produced more cheaply than other vaccines. The company is now seeking emergency use listing from the World Health Organization. Its really excellent to see that the high advocacy that were now getting at these trials, coupled with the safety, billeted to manufacture in large doses. The billet to feed into existing distribution networks, vaccines that already are in place around the world. Because all of that to get this vaccine and other vaccines as well is whats going to really make a difference. We have to get a lot of people. Astra zeneca is the 3rd western drug company to report success with their Coronavirus Vaccine candidates. Recently German Company biotech in partnership with pfizer and u. S. Based company, madonna presented m r n. A based covert 1000. 00 big scenes, which the companies claim are almost 95 percent effective. Vaccines developed by chinese and russian researchers also show high reported efficacy some have already been approved for mergence use. The next challenge is going to be to get enough people immunized fast enough to have an impact virus. And that does take time, simply takes time to manufacture, to get distributed, and then to get into peoples homes. It cant just not. So the more vaccines weve gotten doses the reach of the scenes, weve got, the easier its going to be. The question remains, how can the vaccines be distributed in a fair way without discriminating against poorer nations . Thats the challenge facing because with 1916 Global Access initiative or kovacs with industrialized nations having already secured around 1200000000 doses for themselves, the task is daunting. But we can now speak to richard, may he go from the World Health Organization, immunization and Vaccine Development program. He joins us from brazzaville in republic of congo. Thanks a lot for being with us. So lets just talk about this kovacs coalition for getting the vaccine to the poorer countries of vaccines getting close to as kovacs is still a lie, 4000000000 under funded is kovacs. Going to be ready for this vaccine when i think 1st of all, we need to clarify that the core of us was set up to make sure that looking at countries, including the majority of africa. If you can get access to that lot and sit in some goals off, at least we dont have facts in those this if we can, i do not countries yet of 20, but you are so we can. d get a fundraising that overstates it, or it said to raise up to 2000000000. 00, maybe end of december 2020, is it 1st. Then we dont see that at least the preliminary date that we have sure that, that theyre going to give you reach something very close to terms of where youve gotten your 10787 countries involved in kovacs already, which is, you know, a lot of countries, but theres one notable country that is not involved and thats the u. S. I mean, can this program succeed without the worlds biggest economy . Well, i think that has been because the debates are out there on that, that he does the show on t. N. T. , the at least played vaccines too. Unless you look country through that mechanism can be a cheat. Because if you look at the number of that, there are 2 cooks today we have 189 countries and presenting close to 90 percent of the global have supported the initiative. Saw as much as we have, now. The u. S. , the United States of america to join i think thats how we work this down so far. Its a really good sign also either its, you look there, you know, im supporting. Got this reaching up introducing these are seen at the same time. Yeah. Is there any hope that under a biden presidency that the u. S. Might get involved when i think its good to predict so which direction we go . We do hope they change it in the next. It might of course, send it different signal and shit. So how confident is the director that porn ations are going to be able to get access to the vaccines they need . Well, i think nobody can be 100 percent. Sure. And this is even greece, as you know. And i said during the g 20 summit, that there was a release that some of the country articulate, i forgot me, may not get i did say time that other countries saw, i think we are continuing to push for that. And to make sure that many countries in the region we see in the same time. But there is very little guarantee at the moment that we think this is why we need to continue to do that. If i focus or to me go from the World Health Organization, thanks for joining us on the call. 1000. 00 special. Thank you very much. Speculation. And that is the part of the program where you get to ask the questions, youve been submitting them through how you cheat channel. So now lets put one of them to ask science correspondent eric williams. Its covered 19, now endemic. When i read this question and i thought ok, its time to talk about the elephant in the room. The fact that despite all of our fondest hopes, this virus is not going to fizzle out and go away 1st. Lets define endemic the way were using the word here is and its epidemiological sense, which describes when an infection is more or less constantly present in the background within a specific population and geographic region. But it also implies that its in a kind of steady state, which hope in 1000 is not at the moment. Its still spreading fast and furiously in many places all over the planet. One of 2 things could happen next. When enough people build up immunity to it through infection or vaccination, covert 19 could become an endemic disease or it could just apparently burn itself out and disappear like sars dead. But not thats not going to happen. In other words, at this point, if we could say that the disease wasnt dead, that wed actually be farther along the road towards returning to life as usual that we are. It would mean covert 9000. 00 was no longer out of control, but was a disease we had tools to cope with. Well develop those tools eventually just like we did with aids and influenza. In fact, probably a lot faster, but, but wiping the virus out entirely at this point would take a massive planet wide strategy like the one that wiped out smallpox and has nearly vanished polio. But projects like that take high levels of cooperation between nations and they take time. So who teen is going to be with us for the foreseeable future . To some extent, at least for how wall will depend on us. Science correspondent eric williams. A vaccine for cover 19 could be just around the corner, but how willing are people around the world to actually take it . In a recent survey published in the journal, nature shows around 70 percent of respondents would take a vaccine when it became available. People in Asian Countries like china, south korea and japan lead the way in terms of their readiness to get vaccinated while last for portions of some Eastern European countries. For example, like poland and hungary say they dont want it. But what about you would you get vaccinated .
