more weight and grab the toss now what the arguments are from republicans is that this is an unconstitutional band-aid with in the affordable care act and they are seeking to overturn the law by declaring it. caused it to shoot all at stake 20000000 americans and their health care coverage this would include preexisting conditions this something that was not protected entirely before as well as allowing those who are under the age of 26 to say the parent's health care so this is something that is important to many in the united states at the same time many conservatives again looking for the protections of freedoms not liking this mandate is required under it and well we have certainly heard challenges before the supreme court before what's notable about the court now is that is more decidedly conservative given the recent appointment of justice amy kone barrett by donald trump in recent weeks. the vatican has found

8:16 pm
this hour celebrations have been taking place in azerbaijan after a deal was signed to end weeks of conflict over the nagorno-karabakh region amenia will have to hand over control of 3 districts to a very forces prompting an angry reaction from protesters there. and as you can see police and crew have fired tear gas to disperse protesters who've taken to the streets angry over the impeachment of former president martin this hour you're watching live pictures now from the capitol this all comes as congress is sworn in the interim need a manual marino who will stay in power until july. and the latest republican led legal challenge against the affordable care act is taking place right now in the u.s. supreme court ruled in $28000000.00 americans could lose their coverage if the legislation known as obamacare is and the many. well clearly the most pressing health care challenge in the united states right now is the curve of 1000 pandemic and as president elect joe biden starts planning his transition he's
8:17 pm
prioritized the announcement of his coronavirus task force that speak to dr angela restless and she is of all are just at columbia university's school of public health and she joins us now on skype from seattle and washington thanks for being with us dr rustiness and i was looking at the list of names it's quite the lineup of doctors and health experts and so what biden promise to focus on the science but it feels like that self is a bit of a political statement. i think it is one thing that has really characterized the trumpet ministrations coronavirus response is that it really has been largely led by people who are politicians or policy makers and not so much by the scientists who are on his white house run a virus taskforce so as a scientist myself it's really refreshing to see that the by an administration is placing science and medicine. in front of everything i see one of the fast things that biden has promised as well as to push for a mosque mandate that he'll have to try to get passed in many states and given how
8:18 pm
politicized ma square has become in the u.s. do you say much uptake i think that probably the central challenge that president elect biden is going to face in implementing any of his coronavirus measures and especially something like the mask mandate is going to get buy in from especially states that are led by republican governors that have opposed masks pretty vociferous lee in the past i think that right now it's absolutely critical for biden and his team and the task force to establish working relationships with those governors to ensure that they are on board as well with that that's what i want to ask you more about that doctor because i notice as several others have tried that many of these talks with members and mostly from the american coasts where many people version how do you get the red states in the middle of the country on board what to what steps do you take to get that. i think that's going to be a huge challenge as well i think that there's
8:19 pm
a couple things that can be done about this one is that biden himself has a long history of trying to work across the aisle and actually getting measures passed during pandemics or epidemics public health crises including the 2009 h one n one pandemic as well as the west african ebola epidemic he has been successful and working with republican colleagues to pass those large aid packages and by very difficult political climate so i think that biden himself is going to be really instrumental in building those types of relationships i think the other thing that needs to happen is that this task force is told people right now they've already recruited a couple advisors from outside hopefully they will recruit more advisers including from those red states in the midwest to help reach people and get that message out to get anything done really the biden team will also need money right and with the resistance that we're seeing from the white house in accepting his win the money
8:20 pm
seems in short supply because there's transition funds haven't been released so what now on that front i think that is a huge challenge and that's something that's very difficult for me as a viral it just to project given that i have no expertise and i think really we are in a very unprecedented situation in the u.s. where our current president has never really challenged it's of the election and this way so strongly i think that it's it's going to sort of be a wait and see situation but it's really imperative and i hope that eventually these court cases will play out quickly so that those transition funds can be released and so biden can get to work dr ross messiah i have one last question for you which is beyond the moral and ethical arguments that we had joe biden already making what kenny actually do before january 20th. well i think that again the communication is going to be the key i think that the american people
8:21 pm
have been hearing really mixed messages and in some cases outright misinformation or incorrect scientific information or public health advice from the current white house or the trumpet ministration i think that sending out a clear. unambiguous public health message to the american public is going to be really crucial to buy and be able to hit the ground running on day one on january 20th and that doesn't really cost that much money it just makes sure that you know they just need to make sure that everybody is on the same page and terms of the advice that they're giving to the american people will talk to under rasmussen of religious and columbia university school of public health great to get your thoughts on al-jazeera thanks for being with us dr. news of a potential coronavirus vaccine has been raising hopes around the world but it's also raising questions about who will get it and how much it will cost the makers pfizer and by-n. tech say they have the capacity to produce nearly $1400000000.00 says by the end of
8:22 pm
next year they priced it at just under 40 u.s. dollars for 2 dose course in the u.s. but they have not promised to make it available on a not for profit basis that's provided criticism from rights groups especially as imus say it could generate about 3500000000 dollars next year but by when tech has assured the buyers it will be priced well below typical market rates and that will differ across the world french president emanuel mccrum says europe needs to come up with coordinated security measures off to recent attacks there mike brown took part in a virtual summit with the leaders of austria germany and the e.u. all 3 nations have experienced attacks in recent weeks he says the schengen areas open border policy needs to be rethought. well the polls have closed in jordan where people have been voting in parliamentary elections the global pandemic has worsened an already struggling economy affecting millions more than 50000 security personnel were deployed to make sure mosques are worn inside polling stations

8:27 pm
with their country's interests gets 6 years on the case has not been resolved. an important factor is the lack of independence of those in charge of investigating this case the prosecutors and judges all of this makes it impossible to finish this investigation. the reluctance to follow the money has caused the country to lose a $1000000000.00 worth of financial aid from the european union among other institutions many say the lack of transparency moldova shows that here anything is possible for those with money and suddenly al-jazeera ok moldova. chief palestinian negotiator society has died after contracting cover 19 erekat served as the palestinian chief negotiator in talks with israel for more than 20 years jamal child takes a look back at his life. so i bought a car it was a familiar face in palestinian politics for 4 decades throughout his life israelis
