played important role. ringback more promising news in the battle against covert 19, modern us says early results show its vaccine is nearly 95 percent effective. but there are warnings against complacency and transition delays as u.s. infections rise by a 1000000 in just a week. more people may die. if we don't coordinate hello, i'm barbara starr, you're watching al-jazeera live from london also coming up on the program. paris

congress chooses a former world bank official to be the country's new president. it's 3rd this week, and al jazeera obtains recordings of one of the world's most wanted men, trying to negotiate unison from prosecution. hello, welcome to the program. there is more good news in the battle against covert 1000, but also warnings to the world, not to let down its guard as infections continue to soar. the u.s. pharmaceutical firm modernists says early results from trials show its vaccine is 94.5 percent effective, far exceeding expectations. we looked out about $20000000.00 doses of the vaccine at the end of this year. and we're looking forward to making about $500000000.00 to a $1000000000.00 this next year. but that is going to be

a 247 operation. it will be maternal alone solves this problem. it's going to require many vaccines as we've been saying for a while, but we ought to be able to do our part from here for. this is really important. well, it's just a week since pfizer by own take announced its vaccine was 90 percent effective. it means the u.s. could have 2 vaccines also rise for emergency use next month. and modernise does not require ultra cold storage. well, obviously a vaccine can't come soon. enough. infections in the u.s. have risen by a 1000000 in just the past week, taking its total to more than 11000000 cases. the head of the world health organization says the new vaccines are encouraging, but he is warning people against becoming less featured and this is not the time for complacency. while we continue to receive encouraging news about corporate 19 vaccines and remain cautiously optimistic about the potential for the new tools to

start to arrive in the coming months. right now, we are extremely concerned by the surging cases we are seeing in some countries, particularly in europe and the americas. more from alan fischer in washington d.c.,, we heard that the head of the w.h.o., specifically singling out the americas. but the u.s. is a case is really soaring, so i guess news of no one but potentially 2 viable vaccines is definitely great business for the u.s. . exactly, and it comes against the backdrop of surging cases. the u.s. has seen more than a 1000 deaths every day. for more than a week, it has increased the number of cases by more than a 1000000. in the last 60 years alone, a number of states are reintroducing law. don't schools are being closed restrictions are being placed on large gatherings. all of this to try and combat what is seen as the 2nd wave of the coronavirus,

where the numbers are putting pressure on hospitals in many states across the united states, but also an intensive care units as well. there are a number of tones in cities that are seeing their health services are at breaking point with one or 2, suggesting the have even passed that point on li being sustained by front line workers going above and beyond the call of duty. but anthony has become the face of the fight against corporate here in the united states. says while the vaccine is good news, people shouldn't relax just yet. the virus is not going to stop and call a time out. while things change, the virus is just going to keep going. the process is just going to keep going. this is something that just is now going in the very, very strong right direction. the vaccines are effective. we want to get it approved as quickly as we possibly can. we want to get doses to people starting in december, and then we want to really get the ball rolling as we get into january, february,

and march. we want to smooth a process for that and the way you do that is by essentially having the 2 groups speak to each other and exchange information. so you remember a week ago when the 1st vaccine was announced, donald trump suggested that that announcement had been delayed until after the election to heart him politically. the president, whose country in the oval office. well, he's stuck a different tone with news of this new vaccine saying that people, historians should remember that the breakthroughs were made on his watch. joe biden has been speaking about how he would reenergize the economy ports covered once he takes over in office. but warned that unless he and the trump administration start acting together, then lives will be lost. more people may die if we don't coordinate, look for my chief of staff, ron klain,

and bore vaccines import solution to your vaccinated. so how do we get the vaccine? how do we get over 300000000, americans vaccinated? what's the game plan? it's a huge, huge, huge undertaking. but dinner says it hopes to get $20000000.00 doses of vaccine boat into the country before the end of the year. they would be targeted frontline workers and also those most at risk. the madonna virus also has a longer shelf life and can be stored a room temperature for longer. so that means that doctor's offices, for example, could be used as places where the vaccine could be administered. so all of this is good news, but of course not for the more than 245000 families here in the united states, who over the last name on this have lost loved ones to coronavirus. el official

with the latest there from just outside the white house. allan, thank you, president elect, joe biden has been laying out his plan for reviving the pandemic battered u.s. economy. biden spoke after consulting business and labor leaders as plan includes a minimum wage of $15.00 an hour and only awarding government contracts to companies making products on u.s. soil. he urged congress to pass pandemic relief legislation. as soon as possible. peru's congress has chosen francisco sagacity to be the country's new president. the former world bank official will be peru's 3rd, the leader in the space of a week after winning the confidence vote through has been in political turmoil

since the impeachment of a popular president about scatter last week, which led to mass protests, his successor venue, and maybe no less than just 5 days before resigning on sunday. after 2 people died in protests against his government. we're joined now via skype, by a long assistant professor of international law at the never see that the pacific a law school in the lesser thank you so much for joining us here on al-jazeera. it's definitely been a very tumultuous week in peru, so 1st that the president is impeached and then someone is put in place of him, the interim president. and then he's effectively got rid of after 5 days. and now we have another president in your preinterview when you spoke to one of our, my colleagues, setting up this interview. you said you predicted that by the time that we spoke, there would be a new president and you were right. so how long is it going to last you think? well, thank you barbara. it's a pleasure to be here. i think hopefully he will continue his,

his mandate until the term ends in april and we have the new elections that are set up. but i do want to point that technically he's got, it was not impeached. he, he was the victim of abuse of interpretation, of constitutional law. but if we ever mean it is, we've mentioned he was a popular president. this is martin, this guy who you say was not impeached. so just talk us through what the reasons behind all this instability have been. so why, why did the rest of the political establishment choose to get rid of martin discover? well not think this car was the one passing through reforms for anti-corruption is measures would curtail, parliamentary immunity and his so called impeachment was actually a response by the congress to abuse a provision of cruz constitution that exists for when the presidency is vacant.

when the president resigns or, or suffers an incapacity of some sort to remove him from office unconstitutionally . so you say he was removed on hans and usually correct me if i'm wrong. you seem to say because he was trying to dig around on the corruption that want to suzy's, is pretty prevalent in the peruvian political sphere in light of all of that. then what do you make of the international response to everything that's been happening in peru? well, he, he was removed because he was fighting corruption, even though everyone except him prove that he should still be investigated himself . as you say, corruption is prevalent and no one has the benefit of the doubt. the interesting thing about the international response, though, is that it's funny how it took a few days for the international community to discover that there had been a coup in peru, not just an impeachment. the lines between impeachment and cool blurring in latin

america and peru is not the 1st one, brazil, honduras, and paraguay of all experience similar phenomena. we're going to have to leave it there. but certainly it will be interesting to see how this story develops in peru, and i guess how the reaction to it across the world develops as well for the moment assistant professor of international law at the university that they perceive the law school in lima. thank you. now al-jazeera has obtained recordings of one of the world's most wanted men trying to negotiate a new unity from prosecution. the billionaire financier joe law is wanted for the major role that he played in the multi-billion dollar one. and the be fraud scandal in malaysia, interpol has issued a global warrant for his arrest, but he's still on the run. mary ann jolley has this exclusive report which has flash photography at the start. he was once 2 tourists for his different lifestyle, luxury, real estate and super yacht, all bored with one m.t.b.

to that color air, had, was it because it was able to fly over saudi or space, or bahraini or space is an important 1st step in solving that rift. i'd like to see that get done before. if we end up with office, i'd like to see that get done in the next 70 days. and i think there's a possibility for a cut us foreign minister also spoke at the forum and said there are no winners in the blockade. we are hopeful this at any moment. and what, what we need to like now is to have a serious engagement in a good faith with the other countries. and this is what i was prepared to do at any time they would be ready for this. they would see it at the ready for this and as i told.

a few days before news about many communities that have been submerged, started to come out. there were reports that the focus was largely on manila and nearby provinces. and even at this point, there are still many areas that remain inaccessible. over 50 cluster villages and gay and province are still inaccessible without connections to the many cities surrounding it. this is why relief operations had to be done by air. it's been almost a week since by foreign vanco struck, and more than 83000 residents have been displaced. in province alone, this is a very difficult time for the philippines. this is the 3rd typhoon to hit the philippines in 3 weeks. the biggest one was by pulling gone over a week ago, which left thousands of people homeless and now by phone. what makes this devastating is how quickly this situation turned into

a humanitarian crisis. government resources are stretched and the countries do reeling from the economic brunt of the coronavirus friend demick military officials say it will take days before they will be able to access all of these cut off communities. and only then can they assess the full extent of the damage of by foreign vanpool in the country. el salvador's government has the cleared unofficial red alert as hurricane approaches the 2nd hurrican to hit central america. this month iota has already calls that a station in colombia before strengthening to a category 5. that's the highest level, honduras, nicaragua, and guatemala, have all been conducting mass evacuations. the region is still recovering after being hit by hurricane 2 weeks ago. scientists in mexico have uncovered the largest collection of ice age, mammoth skeletons ever found in just one place. the bones were found by

millennia under the dirt. a chemical solution is sprayed to help preserve the integrity of every fragment, no matter how small a load of this center has been working at this dig site for 3 months. today, she's carefully piecing together a pelvic bone that once belonged to an american camel load. this is one of dozens of restoration workers who have been specially trained for this massive archaeological project for many here, it's a once in a lifetime experience that i've been making, i think that up and up and i never imagined i would be doing something like this welcome with bones. when i go home, my family always asks what we discovered today. it's a very cool experience. the 1st discoveries at this site were made last year when construction workers broke ground for a new airport at a military base just outside mexico city. today, a 1st of its kind partnership between scientists and the mexican military has led

to the cataloguing of hundreds of individual specimens of have mismarked, the mandolin, accredited to the military high command has instructed us to provide all the support of us to get those in need we supply resources like laser scanners lancer phase drone flights. anything that's needed for the study a year on there are now 230 digs, sites just like this one. and the team see there's still plenty more to find. as you can see, we are completely surrounded by the bones of ice age mammals just in this area alone were standing there, or at least 2 sets of mammoth tusks. but there's also the remains of giants, lots, saber, tooth tigers, and many other species that have been extinct for thousands of years. once a specimen has been cleaned, catalogued and reinforced, it's prepared for transport. scientists and government officials say the plan is to showcase the assembled skeletons at a museum inside the mexican capital's newest airport. scheduled for completion in 2022, manila, little al-jazeera,
