Hungary ruling in Roma segregation case 'unfair' - PM Orban

Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Orban on Friday said a Supreme Court ruling awarding damages to schoolchildren from the Roma minority who were put in separate classes was unfair and pledged to change the law to prevent any future such decisions.

 

Orban, who has gradually assumed control over many aspects of life in post-communist Hungary, sparked protests in Budapest when he hinted in January that the state should disobey any order to pay restitution to the Roma, and train them instead.

 

The case concerns an elementary school in Gyongyospata, an eastern town that has been a flashpoint of ethnic tensions. The Supreme Court ruled on Tuesday that it had given substandard education to the Roma children after confining them to the ground floor.

 

It ordered the school district and the town to pay the students a combined $310,000 (254,182 pounds) in damages, confirming a finding by ombundsman for the minority, who reported in 2011 that the Roma had been segregated for years.

Deputy Ombudsman Vaska Bajramovska-Mustafa: Bribery and corruption in prisons have been a long-standing problem.

By taking advantage of the benefits and benefits of prisons in the country, the convicts themselves use these methods to gain some benefits.

According to the Deputy Ombudsman Vaska Bajramovska-Mustafa, this phenomenon is widespread and involves both convicts and employees of prison institutions.

 

The benefits apply to a mobile phone, better conditions in the cells, use on weekends and more.

But the problem is that the convicts themselves say so in informal contacts with the ombudsman, but there is no official complaint or grievance.

According to Bajramovska, the reason is that the prisoners themselves will deny themselves the privileges for which they give bribes.

 

According to the "tariff" for a mobile phone, it depends on the type of phone and ranges from 50 euros and up.

 

One of the forms that has been established in the communication for gaining benefit with a mobile phone is the conversation between the convict and the prison staff.

If he wants to ask in hidden form how much that service will cost, the prison officer returns it with the reply: "Well, I told you 50, 100 or 200 times" which in translation changes the price, namely whether it is 50. 100 or 200 euros in against service.

Greece starts widespread testing in Roma camp after outbreak

Greek health and civil protection authorities have launched an operation for widespread testing and contact tracing in an area in central Greece where an outbreak of coronavirus infections have been detected.

 

The civil protection authority said Wednesday that consecutive positive infections had been recorded in a Roma settlement in the central city of Larissa. Ten new confirmed infections were recorded on Tuesday, including seven people in the same family.

 

The local outbreak led authorities to implement a plan that will conduct widespread repeated testing in three phases, with the first tests on Wednesday, then repeated on the seventh day and on the 14th day.

 

Positive cases will lead to quarantines of city blocks or neighborhoods, or to people being transferred for quarantine in a medical center set up in the area for this purpose, the civil protection authority said.

Greece implemented a lockdown early on in its outbreak, a move which has been credited with keeping the number of coronavirus deaths low.

 

The country's death toll currently stands at 152, with 2,744 confirmed infections and 32 people hospitalized on respirators in intensive care units.

Covid-19 and 5G - a conspiracy theory that worries

5G theory is not the only conspiracy theory associated with the new coronavirus.

Some people have mistakenly linked the pandemic to the Bill Gates Foundation, while others have linked the virus to biological weapons created by China or the United States.

 

When time is of the essence, "people are motivated to find explanations that give them a sense of purpose, even if they are false." So, they are looking for models that do not exist.

 

"We need something under control," said Ani Sternisko, a researcher in social psychology at New York University. "Perhaps it is more comforting to have a comprehensive secret that dictates the severity of the virus than to acknowledge that the world and humanity are affected by it," she said.

 

On the other hand, if people believe that Covid-19 was created by the so-called Deep State or by telecommunications companies obsessed with profit, that's a problem for everyone.

 

The problem was sparked by a mistaken viral video on YouTube on March 12, 2020, posted by the anti-vaccination group Health Parents, in which a doctor on a disciplinary penalty named Thomas Cowan linked 5G networks to the virus, claiming that urban areas are most severely affected by Covid-19.

 

The video was deleted, but not before American singer Carrie Hilson shared it with 2.3 million followers.

There is no scientific basis for linking a 5G wireless network to a cowboy-19.

5G is the latest generation of wireless networks that is faster and more efficient than previous ones.

 

Like 3G or 4G and 5G, it is transmitted via radio waves, an undamaged part of the electromagnetic spectrum. 5G is simply confusing and that confusion creates uncertainty. And conspiracy theories come with uncertainty. If the relationship between 5G and coronavirus has no evidence, why do people still believe it?

 

Conspiracy theories appeal to people for a variety of reasons. Van Bavel believes that "people often want someone or a group to be blamed", while Merkel notes that when scared people are eager to explain, they are angry and look for a target for their anger.

 

There is also a social aspect to conspiracy theories. Sternisko notes that a sense of unity over a common cause can attract people into conspiracy movements.

 

The idea that you really know the truth also helps people feel "special and unique."

 

"People are also creating conspiracy theories for different purposes." Some people want attention. Others want to advance their political careers or influence public opinion. Many want to make a living by profiting from uncertainty.

"I think any group that has a reason to promote themselves will jump on this," said Merkel, who warned people to watch out for current pandemic profiteers.
