9:05 pm
i now only went up and. so live big this is the apple of the preliminary and then i'm in a balcony now. speak that. he. died losing babies and dogs is a critical part of the come painted eliminate the disease so the training of veterinarians is vital. he is doing that that maybe you know here. you have a laboratory here to us this thing for the animals head you know if you. are not
9:06 pm
and it's one of several laboratories all over the country but me she's like that me laboratory it helps the other laboratory so you for the. sick so we teach them how to cut off the head of the biting i knew all and how to put it in the appropriate container and to bring it here and then that would be best and what he's doing is transfer you towards we're told the press are. making a dirty window. and then you could hold it up to the light and see if you've got enough. or you're doing is taking off some of the excess also depending upon how the animal was killed sometimes you can have a lot of blood associated with the brain you know one or need a lot of blood associated with this you want a nice single layer ideally of neurons. more than ninety percent
9:07 pm
of the human fatalities are caused by the dog this is one of the reasons why i want to prioritize the research is to improve our diagnostic capability a vaccine on the global market for dogs wholesale prices less than twenty five cents us do the comparison to health economics are clear vaccinate dogs you relieve the burden of human rabies vaccinate people it's the incurable one and if we vaccinated people forever. changing course was the sign precisely to teach veterinarians and to feel to do a proper diagnosis this is important because we need to know where i'd atheists we did most number of cases where we need to provide more support and we need to prayer eight days intervention. a delay in treatment due to poor diagnosis can be fatal if that was the real world you killed it's whether you are going to burgle heights or. one of the biggest challenges in regards to rabies is just the basic
9:08 pm
concept of neglect why are we in the collective disease and unfortunately from the standpoint of human communicable diseases such as h i v or tb or influenza some individuals in the geo political. basically decide not enough people die or rabies. but too many people do die afraid beings here at some hospital the bike ten exceeds up to seven hundred by victims a day and without crucial treatment many more would die. dr ferdinando goodman has been treating people dying of rabies for over twelve years. this is where patients with rabies are use already made dead.
9:09 pm
once patient gets in he is locked inside and he can no longer leave the room until he dies we allow the relatives so look at the room we can come in now because there is no patient look at house call and how there is no jurist. we just have windows here so we have had many rabid patients who jumped from this window they escaped and they might by. other people. i particularly remember this twenty year old pregnant female eight months first baby. the husband didn't bring her for consultation how it said their hospital they brought him brought her to develop. so this is what this is only call
9:10 pm
us at doc's specialist so if that doc specialist you find anywhere in the philip is there specialists in they treat rabies the treat appetite is they treat me in cells so that's one brought her. to the village got to that that specialty is the two months after he had get money festivus eyes and seeing them so that he sees my dad it was too late so their relatives the friends told him to bring his wife to son last are all for the proper treatment hoping that we can still do something about her condition but of course we know it's a case of radius is one hundred percent fatal so the very young wife died in this rule and i remember in the nurses gossip there were barely knew that. less than a year's time the husband might be looking for another wife because he was still young and he was good looking.
9:11 pm

9:13 pm
thereafter pastore was able to replicate his successes in other people not only in france but also around the world. mean i. got up on my. last week. i'm going then but what i meant by saying. it was. nothing. that was. never meant for this is we've been betting on for those people. but they asked for it in the east after bush i'm going to come from and we don't want you know fourteen things that they want to be ordered to. and they've been there for the police eight really twenty one and still get what i know would be.

9:22 pm

9:24 pm
been in. there's a feeling of choking and this is why there's. because of the paralysis of death row . and the difficulty of. struggling and just the madness it's because of the infection in the central nervous system. every time there's an a.b.c. . i get. my. due in there i do with this. and that good me of five. so. it is important that even a laboratory aide. appreciates that what he. did the prevention of such.
9:25 pm
in the fights to eliminate rabies in the city betsy and her colleagues work closely with the local community they need to engage everyone including traditionally. an important role in that area. you know beyond that some so much. in the philippines there are specialists. in our faith healer or. people and seek. with a traditional healer before coming to a health care facility so this is the challenge we face when it. all
9:26 pm
appropriate treatment when a patient would go first there there has been a move. through the department of to get them into. the prevention and control program i believe in. i mean that's going to. be. good. if you're going to. be. in the d.c. . this is. meant to be the. the.
9:27 pm
us. government. and department of. department of agriculture department of education. they said. that being. said when. it's a program. doesn't. mean that. they have. about all the.
9:28 pm
question they had they damn well. thank god in the. traditional view their. contribution. to the program going to. be made maybe then you. might deny the program i. mean. some of the money. you know.
9:29 pm
i had. way back when i was still a child. and she was not tended to by a doctor and. that had an imprint on me and with the loss of the family. my it became an advocacy on my part to do work fired. when the time comes so this is the right time i believe with. and with the. ministry. executives in the province of the minister. or the village yes we will we will let you we have to achieve that. to achieve this goal of rabies elimination. teams dive into the next campaign.
9:30 pm
careful. for the mindful of the whole game for every single dose of. one hundred percent. to eliminate rabies in humans it must be eliminated in dogs. dogs vaccination rates of even seventy five to eighty percent can achieve this as part of the campaign. vaccinations are provided for free.
9:31 pm
living was not. ok when i was about vaccination of dogs displaced an important role so jan lived here and so with our other staff are working together we're just dividing ourselves into groups so we can maximize our presence here. and you. know. most of them are now. before. the only covering up about thirty five percent. but last year we get to seventy percent of the population.
9:32 pm
and they want it with another to get there and i'm. ok. if we're going to. see. and be about. what. is the biggest megaphone you've been you know big. number. and then. you know being. a little bit baby been a bona households. so ben. at the time that we established that it didn't need
9:33 pm
a search that far from it. the problem of this or diseases that people get from us was not to recognize it was not appreciate that that's an important burden. to public health and. the time that we were doing. research and finding the burden. not to like rabies and showing that it is as important as many other infectious diseases in the philippines and in fact in the region we were able to raise the awareness of people and appreciation of this issue and makers policy makers both in the ministry of health and the ministry of culture of this problem and that they need to address this problem and to invest more and that is why do you think that he was hoping to get people not before.
9:34 pm
we got. something this. can be oh. well i was going to make it and i'm. not. going to have a brain that. tricks every day. we can give you the. first last question when most of us we get. with the campaign in the north pole. things it says for the challenge is to spread it across the philippines rabies can be beaten the science the medicine exists they key is to apply it successfully and prevent unnecessary deaths because when
9:35 pm
that medicine is not given in tank the debts are unbearable. for. a lot of. or maybe again i'm bored.
9:36 pm
i know. you are so nice a lot of me a ton of you me but only to big no no i got a. call and it was a long. someone has. a name but the day he got in a good lesson. i learned the. oh no move. on no. no no no no but. we
9:37 pm
are going to be going to moon being up or something if you going got it up was you know the good old and up in the bit with us in those. people who. did have a. good fellow. who know him being with us imo. if. he. goes in will. be no no.
9:38 pm
no no i well i'm the one. going. out. that there may the stage of illness within the last forty eight hours they will fall into fits of madness and struggling and then suddenly they will become lucid and you're able to speak to them and that is really the hard part when you'll hear them. share their thoughts about their fear of dying and why does this ever happen to him and it's for him or her family and that there is a thought any hope that he can be cured so this lucid moments also are very moving . you know you see the humanity and the hardship. and that the patient feels and then they will again fall into fits of madness when you see
9:39 pm
that they're like out of their mind that i'm dealing. oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh. oh. oh oh oh i see in the end if my mind numbing you don't know what i was feeling. very night we're going to. say both sides. in the. business and the. most logical but women. who suddenly one hundred
9:40 pm
percent turn in the us and. out of. one of them who would. be someone there saying you know how walk. on simple must. have been set up again. so you can walk around without your governing body. it's all so. hard on him because in some point enough i thought it was about him when i mean when i'm going across the simple. problem with. number one. ok. we've seen him seen. patients at their suicide because of that feeling of despair or it's this stage of to see.
9:41 pm
9:42 pm
well. people died of disease because they were or one of the priorities of research is to bring this to the forefront and convince international leaders that this is something that is manageable it's this kind of approach central place vaccination where people are alerted days ahead of time both by loudspeaker and by leaflets and they voluntarily bring their dogs here volunteers will vaccinate them and so it's a win win for the community for the people it's a it's really a way working together work to get rabies control in a country that has a large burden of the disease. they've seen. a few hundred human neighbors cases and some animals suffering from this disease that this is
9:43 pm
my motivation for continuing to work on the prevention and eventual elimination because i know that it is possible that a country an endemic country like the fifty. three beasts from the animal stores and eventually they do it and completely eliminate human to ski. athlete of blocking them out we can. find a couple of them that people i don't mean that bunnies and i don't feel bad.
9:44 pm
that i'm the mother of one pack or the sea so my. family not about. the glad i wind of is that i know a guy. i don't know. and i know i'm mad. now my cabin. i be from. again a pushover survey. it was there for face. value so that. i now named ahmed yassin there were a lot. of.
9:45 pm
from cool brisk nose and fuel roots. to the womb trying cruelties of southeast asia. we got more shallow slow espouse a frame affecting
9:46 pm
a year ago i pulling away towards the southeastern coast of brazil still a few showers as we go on through the remainder of monday there for that eastern side of power thirty four celsius the average a sense him will see temperatures forward in quite sharply as we get to choose it's twenty two degrees and still looking little the wet side shows they continue to drift into southeastern parts of brazil temperatures not up in knots for want to satirise to around seventeen degrees meanwhile into the caravan showers along the spouse of the rain moving into central parts of the caravan big area cloudy easing of a tools nick a regular costa rica towards panama based on his rifle the last around his besom really heavy showers into the greater antilles jamaica could see some really big down pulls as we go on through the next couple of days that could lead to some flash flooding in the possibility of some mudslides in a similar picture to the southwestern corner of the us a closer to have hurricane
9:47 pm
rosa making its way across northern parts of california that will eventually just push up into the fosse out west of the us into arizona easing a little further north west towards colorado actually right around the fall codice we can see flooding rains over the next couple days. the weather sponsored by cattle and race. were. i have dedicated almost my entire professional life to the bench and fight against corruption and what i have heard is that we need champions we need also to shine the light on those shampoos and this award bridges the gap that existed in this. nominee you're in favor of from here on shined the light on what they do and to
9:48 pm
have not shine a light on your hero with your moment for the international space award two thousand and eighteen for more information go to isa war dot com. this is al jazeera. hello and welcome i'm peter dobbin you're watching the al-jazeera news our live from our headquarters here in doha coming up in the next sixty minutes the full scale of the disaster begins to emerge in indonesia as mass graves are prepared on
9:49 pm
the island for the tsunami and earthquake debt. deal sealed friends again a new trade agreement between canada mexico and the united states donald trump describes it as historic. iran launches missiles at sites inside syria it says it's striking back for the attack on a military parade. also ahead preparing for a difficult divorce the minister in charge of brics it says the entire u.k. government machine is getting ready for a no deal. top story so far today hundreds of bodies have been buried in a mass grave but indonesia is bracing for many more mass funerals in the days ahead as it struggles with the aftermath of an earthquake and a tsunami international help will soon be on its way to the island of sort of we see where the official death toll is now at eight hundred forty four but the final
9:50 pm
toll is predicted to number into the thousands a fourteen day state of emergency has been put in place across the island of so the way see where many remote areas are still cut off while the eight hundred of the dead have been in part to only a handful from the region of dongola which remains isolated there's no road access and no airport in dongola but again our coverage here on the news are with this latest report from wayne hay. three days after the massive earthquake and tsunami this is what is left of the city of palu much of the city of more than three hundred thousand people has been destroyed rescuers are trying to reach those who might still be alive. with hospitals damaged the injured are being treated in the open and the airport is doubling as a field hospital it was also badly damaged in the quake the military has secured it to allow aid to be flown in and the injured else. so that is. what
9:51 pm
the earthquake was so powerful all of us run out in a big group we were shouting people were screaming god is great people were repenting. as more bodies are recovered graves are being dug for mass burials to try to prevent the spread of disease those who did survive a disparate me trying to leave. we have not eaten in three days we just want to be safe. we have been here since yesterday we need to fly there are eleven of us we haven't been allowed to board. the indonesian president has been trying to reassure the people of that help is on its way. we will send as much food as we can today by hercules aircraft directly from jakarta. these are the problems we're trying to solve as well we're expecting fuel to get to politic day because special flights are being sent there because one of the main challenges facing
9:52 pm
rescue workers has been the lack of heavy equipment to dig for survivors for now they're using whatever tools they can find or their bare hands to try to get to those buried under the rubble. just gone eight pm in indonesia away in haiti is live for us in the capital jakarta way in what for days now since this disaster hit and they've still to reach those outlying isolated areas is that their number one priority. yes it is and getting the equipment and the right personnel in there to achieve that very ng piece yes you're right there are some areas that they still have not managed to reach and some of them even outlying areas there is a particular part of the city that the government highlighted today in a media conference just a few hours earlier on monday where some nine hundred houses have all but disappeared beneath the mud when the earthquake struck some of them sinking some
9:53 pm
five meters into the mud they simply can't get into that area they have seen it but they can't get in there peter to assess exactly how many people were there at the time of the quake how many people may have managed to escape before the houses started collapsing around them and indeed how many people are still trapped in there may be alive or indeed casualties as a result of what has happened there so that is just one example of exactly how difficult it is for the search and rescue workers to reach some of these areas little known some of the parts of the place where the earthquake and tsunami struck that are further afield so very slow going and there is a long way to go certainly that is the message that is coming from the government that is partly why are they have accepted now this offer of assistance from eighteen countries the indonesian government confirming that they have received an offer of assistance and they have accepted it so they can get the people and the gear that they really need carter but there are issues with the airport in the
9:54 pm
affected region we're told the runway isn't completely trustworthy how do they get the kit from where you are into that area. that's one of the big challenges certainly the airport is operational it certainly was closed for some time after the earthquake and tsunami struck it is open again though yes there is significant damage there there are cracks in the runway or at least on part of the runway but military aircraft have been able to land there and have been able to take off so they have been able to deliver aid and equipment and personnel to city and they have also importantly the nat'l to evacuate people from that area some of the injured people that need to get out of there to get some urgent medical attention commercial flights still haven't begun operating to and from pile yet no doubt that will come in the near future which will in turn also increase the flow
9:55 pm
of search and rescue personnel and aid groups into that area and some of the heavy machinery that we've been speaking about has now arrived in that area but again only a few hours ago early on monday some more heavy equipment arrived from neighboring provinces but the authorities on the ground there saying peter that it is certainly not enough they need to get more there and they need to get it as fast as possible is there a sense as well where you are when that the emergency rescue people or the next wave of rescue people when they get into the region they have to kind of plan for what happens next because if it goes to seven or eight days it's not just about feeding people perhaps it's about water borne diseases it's about people falling ill because they haven't been getting the right diets they haven't been drinking clean drinking water. yes and we're already starting to see them prepare for that or take action we're seeing mass burials as i mentioned before graves being dug to prepare for mass burials because the bodies are
9:56 pm
literally beginning to pile up in some areas now and they are concerned about the spread of disease because of that it's partially because of religious reasons as well but also because of health implications and what you're saying also comes back to coordination as well peter it's all very well for the government to allow all of these aid organizations assistance from internet from foreign countries some eighteen different countries offering assistance which has a say has been accepted but it comes back to coordination there is usually no shortage of personnel in this region when it comes to natural disasters it's very easy to get them there generally from neighboring countries like thailand malaysia et cetera but coordinating them when they're on the ground is the most important thing and that will be the next phase as well how do we coordinate all of the staff there all of the equipment and supplies that are arriving into pollos city for
9:57 pm
example and get it out from the airport to the people that need it most wearing for the moment thank you very much and are thomas is imposed on his way to parliament. like so many others out same as trying to reach probably you can't fly there on commercial planes direct and anyway once you get there there are no cars available no fuel no food no water all those things those supplies things that we need to take in and we're far from the only ones of those in this huge queue of traffic trying to get the pride throw in a city that's a six hour drive away from poland where here in the nearest place that we could see all those in these miracles are trying to get you to drive to probably because they're worried about relatives they want to take their own supplies in but this is just the starting point asked for conditions in that city well all day on sunday the military was digging big graves mass graves and many hundreds of people will be buried in dollars on monday indonesia's government meanwhile has early on monday
9:58 pm
said that this disaster is of such a scale that they now welcome foreign aid that is significant with a long book like the few weeks ago in the eighty's government said it was able to cope on a very different this time around they are welcoming foreign aid they want to get as much as quickly as possible so as well as all these people once they get fuel in their cars driving. by on a personal level the official foreign aid should be reaching that city. moving on to other big stories so far today donald trump the u.s. president described the old deal as a job killing disaster now he sealed a new three way agreement with canada and mexico we're talking about the replacement for nafta it was sealed following late night talks in october before a u.s. imposed deadline was drunk came to office promising to scrap the original deal that had lasted for twenty four years so what's different well this one will be known as the u.s. mexico canada agreement and it will cover
9:59 pm
a trillion dollars worth of trade in the region beyond that the details are still emerging canada has agreed to open up its dairy markets to the u.s. and the u.s. will not apply tariffs on canadian car manufacturing. the agreement is expected to be submitted to the u.s. congress in the next few days all the parties have welcomed it donald trump took to twitter describing it as a wonderful new trade deal with canada to be added into the deal already reached with mexico he's calling it a historic transaction we're covering this from all three countries don't hold and will join us live from mexico city in toronto will bring in dialect but first let's go to washington and my colleague roslyn jordan ross what's the difference between nafta or what nafta was and what they've come up with well put basically you what you're seeing are more intellectual property agreements especially on things involving e-commerce here seeing an opening for the first time of canada's dairy market to the u.s.
10:00 pm
farmers that was something which nafta did not provide for and you're also going to see a rise in the pay that workers get automotive products which is something that could be not so much to the benefit of mexico where workers are tended to be paid considerably less than workers in the u.s. or in canada but one big thing that does not change in this late breaking deal between the u.s. and canada is the tariffs on canadian steel and aluminum imports those tariffs still remain trade officials here in the u.s. say that those are being dealt with in a different venue and that this new agreement which is supposed to replace nafta would not address those concerns daniel in.
