11:08 am
scientists say he's suffering from a different strain of the virus and unlike his 1st infection the 2nd time around he didn't have any symptoms researchers have suggested that patients who recover from the corona virus are immune to re-infection but antibody levels can fall after a few months the world health organization warns against jumping to conclusions based on just one case well judy fisher is an associate research professor of microbiology and immunology at the georgetown university medical center she says this latest development suggests re infection in patients can happen without any symptoms being present. it's so it's not so much a mutation as the virus is error prone when it replicates mistakes get introduced into its genome and over time to virus sort of drifts away so that there are distinct families and that's what appears to have happened in this case it appears that he was previously infected with with a variant strain that was circulating in the u.s.
11:09 am
in march and that the most recent. re infection was with a newer strain that's circulating in europe currently what it means is that it confirms that even though people do make antibodies while they are infected which is a sign of immunity that waning immunity may allow them to be infected again the interesting thing news here is that this was actually caught by a screening a mandatory screening at an airport and the single case do not have any symptoms at all so it's very difficult to extrapolate that to the whole population but it tells us that it's possible that that for just infection does confer protection against severe disease but it clearly does not mean that the that once a person has recovered that they are protected from ever becoming infected again and it's clear that they may be able to transmit virus to others even though they themselves are not showing any symptoms and that germany has issued travel warnings

11:19 am
suspected of containing undeclared nuclear material the agency has accused iran of sanitizing facilities where inspections have been denied this visit comes as the u.s. is pushing for u.n. sanctions to be reimposed on iran for alleged violations of the 2050 nuclear deal that washington pulled out of 2 years ago when it sounds big track correspondent back he is in the capital tehran for us as a just how have those talks been going well the 2 men gross the the head of iran's atomic agency you've been speaking for about 2 hours its relationship between iran and the organization has been tense of late now but we are hearing that this is now a new chapter between the 2 in the relationship going forward but there's still that contention about these 2 sites that the i.a.e.a. has said that iran has stopped access to for that for months now back in june the
11:20 am
i.a.e.a. passed a resolution supporting proposed boy united kingdom germany and france demanding access to these sites now iran's position has been that these throughout these 2 sites a military sites they are not part of the j.c. fury that's a 2015 nuclear deal and also the contention is that the intelligence about these sites was given to the i.a.e.a. by israel who is not a part of the nonproliferation treaty is not open to. us but now iran seems to have changed its mind we're hearing from iran's atomic agency that they will grant access to the sides as long as the one for questions about them so that's going forward but of course iran's nuclear facilities already are and inspection monitored 24 seventh's online so that does sound constructive indeed but where does all of this leave the new kid deal at south.
11:21 am
well the nuclear deal is still in place iran is still party to it they have reduced their commitments to it but this meeting does take days of the time when the united states is trying to reimpose sanctions any sort of noncompliance with the with the i.a.e.a. from iran side will be used by the united states to try and drum up support for those reimposition of those sanctions because right now the united states doesn't have the support and other countries in the world and they're looking at iran and seeing how this meeting goes yes iran has scaled back its commitment to that 2015 nuclear deal something that iran says that they are within their rights to do the nuclear deal allows them to do because the other side and look keep them to their commitments so the greenman distiller on but if those sanctions are reimposed which is unlikely iran does have the options option of leaving the j.c. pure way but we don't think it will get to that right now it's about how the meetings with rafael grossi go with iran is
11:22 am
a high profile he's the head of the atomic agency but he's meeting foreign minister jihads raef and also will be meeting president hassan rouhani will be watching very closely indeed a setback there for us in the iranian capital tehran thank you as. well now the u.s. brokered deal between israel and the united arab emirates may be souring after less than 2 weeks u.s. news website actually says now reporting the u.a.e. called off a meeting with israeli and american officials after prime minister benjamin netanyahu opposed the sale of f. 35 jets to operate dubey abu dhabi has been trying to purchase the advanced fight is bunk u.s. policy dictates israel must maintain its military superiority in the region u.s. secretary of state mike pompei o is expected to discuss the details during his trip to abu dhabi nation this week . well the e.u. has called on russia to launch an independent and transparent investigation into the poisoning of opposition leader alexina valley doctors in germany have confirmed
