12:02 am
a newly elected president joe biden has warned it will take months to turn things around his chief of staff says the trump administration had no real distribution plan for the vaccine. the process to distribute the vaccine particularly outside of nursing homes and hospitals out into the community as a whole did not really exist when we came into the white house as everyone american has seen the way in which people get vaccine is chaotic it's very limited we've seen this factor all over the country where millions of doses have been distributed but half of that has been given out so the process of getting that vaccine into arms that's the hard process that's where we're behind as a country and that's where we're focused in the biden ministration on getting that ramped up that's what's not have us in jordan in washington d.c. and draws 25000000 cases it's a staggering number it is a staggering number it's one in 14 americans has been infected with this disease
12:03 am
and of course the death toll has soared above 250000 americans who have died from this virus and now there are variations of the virus or variants as the scientists put it which really does increase the pressure on the new administration of president joe biden to respond to this pandemic as quickly as possible there have been numerous reports all over the country of vaccine shortages of people signing up to get the one of the 3 vaccines that is currently available and then showing up and finding out that the vaccines in fact are not available there are communities that are dealing with overloads of hospital beds with cases and not being able to take care of people who are sick with other illnesses it's really become a true true crisis as we heard the new president say just this past week and biden
12:04 am
has said that he wants to make having his his 1st priority and the mosque said to be made mandatory on all airplanes and trains. well that's because one of the things that public health experts have said from the very beginning is that if you can't physically distance yourself from others if you have to go out in public one of the easiest ways to keep this virus from spreading exponentially is to basically put up a barrier and in this case a cloth mask if you're not able to get one of the more scientifically designed scientific masks and popularly known as the end 95 mask this is something of course with the airlines and train companies and other modes of public transportation really suffering economically through all the only way to really help them is to get passengers back into those seats but those are also enclosed spaces so to basically try to square the 2 concerns requiring people to wear
12:05 am
a face mask if they're going to use one of those modes of public transportation seems to be the way to try to help these airlines and the national train system try to survive what is going to be a long economic crisis for these industries and how likely is it that biden will get his 1.9 trillion down a congress. well certainly this is something that the by an administration wants but of course this is also a matter of negotiation not just between the white house and members of congress which is of course a separate branch of government but it's also going to require a lot of negotiating between the members of congress themselves there are some republicans who are cold already complaining that. the supplemental aid bill that was passed in december hasn't even been distributed yet so why does the new administration want even more money but there are congressional democrats who say
12:06 am
and they're backed up by the incoming treasury secretary janet yellen that if this money isn't spent as quickly as possible it's going to make it much more difficult to help the u.s. economy recover down the road so the sooner the money is distributed this better off everyone will be of course it now comes down to a matter of negotiation and there's really no way of predicting whether joe biden is going to get a $1.00 trillion dollars that he says he wants president jordan thank you very much indeed. israel is banning passenger flights in and out of the country for a week to prevent the new covered 19 strains from entering its borders from $2200.00 g.m.t. on monday any international at a special permits will be allowed to enter or leave the country israel has started to see a promising drop in cases. of the country it's not on is due to expire at the end of the month are a force that has more from west to iceland. this is just. the israeli go
12:07 am
than something that's. has not been done during this and make. the deputy attorney general as to whether would even be legal prevents israeli citizens from returning home but yet during the course of a cabinet meeting on sunday we understand has now been approved that from monday midnight no. arrivals and no exits through israel's main. would be allowed unless there is special permission granted in exceptional cases this is an attempt to stop new strains coming into the country to a time when the vaccine rollout program is going at a much faster pace than anywhere else in the world already we're approaching any 30 percent of the population as a whole being vaccinated so there is evidence of the vaccine starting to work what they don't want in israel is for new strains which might escape the vaccine to
12:08 am
militate against some of those effects and also there's been some political pressure on benjamin netanyahu as well when it emerged that it's even been in a tent to prevent people coming in without a negative coronavirus test in the proceeding 72 hours that's something that was eventually put in place just yesterday on saturday and is now being superseded by these much more stringent regulations. ultra-orthodox protesters have clashed with police in 2 major israeli cities after regulators tried to shut down religious schools. 1 police moved in to try to close the schools for violating coronavirus lockdown restrictions 5 police officers were injured and at least 4 people were arrested demonstrations against street to coronavirus measures in the netherlands and also descended into clashes with police officers used water cannon to disperse protesters in absolute terms museum square there from kaho samer

riders considered critical workers out and about despite the coronavirus lockdown i only had what. i currently have i think they pull it out of my account it does feel like a moral decision. is specially now with peak time winter and often time is when we have most deliveries and when we are off it most rewards as well she admits that it's common among her fellow riders to bend the rules sometimes the widespread sort of attitude is so if it's not going to happen i'm not going to pass it on or i'm not carrying it. it's kind of like sweeping under the rug in favor of your own personal life instead of really considering the global situation. government discussions reportedly underway about whether to offer fixed payments to anyone required to self isolate only serve to highlight what many say is an abject failure of test trace and isolate measures that the prime minister once promised would be world beating it seems britain's pandemic never stops breaking new ground highest
12:11 am
death numbers record hospital admissions even its own deadly variant and while the vaccine rollout is currently the most advanced in the world the current lockdown is also projected to be the longest one yet this in part is why recent government research shows that only 17 percent of people with symptoms are coming forward to be tested and just 11 percent of people actually self isolate when asked to do so by n.h.s. test and trace in many cases these are the lowest paid who can't afford not to go to work. there is no point in testing and less you can get people to self isolate because that's where you stop transmission we now know and actually we've known for months and months that the very people who are the most exposed to this virus who are those on the frontline and low paid for example i care workers can't afford to
12:12 am
sell isolate and literally they are in that really difficult position where they have to choose between self isolation and putting food on the table so laura is not alone among society's least well off the cleaners carers and supermarket workers short of being physically ill herself she says if told to self isolate she'll instead go on delivering food to british doorsteps she has no choice john how al-jazeera london brazilians have staged a 2nd day of socially distanced protest against president shy of are so narrow some protesters were referred to while others drove through the streets of rio de janeiro honking their horns and calling for person hours impeachment brazilians have grown increasingly irate at the slow pace of the country's vaccine rollout journey began last weekend. but then i feel as if brazil doesn't have

a government brazil has been left to fend for itself we have psychopaths in power and the time has come no one can take it anymore we're not going to wait for a 1000000 of our people to die for people to rise up nobody can take it anymore. because there's all this horrible fake news that is deceiving people and the president's disapproval rating is greater than his approval gather strength we have to get rid of that guy ross brazil will go under he will prevent the economy so impeachment now out with paul sonora. mass testing has begun in hong kong for thousands of people in neighborhoods sealed off because of a corona virus outbreak the city is struggling to contain an upsurge in cases over recent weeks a similar concern in mainland china which is seeing its biggest wave of infections since march sarah clarke reports from hong kong. health authorities have sealed off hong kong's densely packed district of jordan after a surge in infections those living in around $150.00 buildings have been forbidden

12:26 am
determined the al-jazeera. that's rich and now to our guests on the situation in tikrit samuel detection is a journalist with a reporter joins us by skype from. in ethiopia so give us an idea of whether you confirm any of the reports that come through from the reuters news agency saying that there be no reports of abuse of. female refugees in the region i've been speaking to half a dozen people in the past week there echoing what's being reported by reuters there are many many people that are suffering in terms of not just sexual harassment but literally running out of food and all kinds of stuff that still conflict. and again people are desperate and get many people are still going to the sudan and we've heard from the u.n. last week that that. saying that the people i may see it in begging for
12:27 am
a that's not available that was paid for granted from the the in high commission for refugees what are they prospects about improving any time soon. the government is insisting they're sending donations donating products to the region but there are many many people that are still starving northwood no medication this has been a conflict there for the almost for the last underlain 100 days. and i don't know how much is enough to help this people but again it's a very desperate situation that's being caught by all sides and if he were to actually live apart from his office says describe the the operation there is a stabilizing mission at the men but is it your impression still fighting going on what's happening with the with the leaders of the tea p.l.f. and so on. i think the bigger fight is over but there are many small fights all over the region you know the people of soldiers are passionate soldiers they might
12:28 am
not have the skills but they're fighting on and the government is responding and many people are being affected and again many places are being looted historical sites are being destroyed including a famous mosque in that will grow. refurbished by the turkish government it's been destroyed and the government has said they will go and fix it but i don't know if they took the government actually has enough resources to keep on fixing what's been destroyed and what has sustained so many tourists that's been going to the to to to the right which has suddenly stopped as about the people who have had to leave where they ended up nicely. many of them have headed to the sudan many are coming to the other side of ethiopia including the region and also coming to addis ababa there are many many people that are attempting to just leave the region because i guess it's an area that's in conflicts that's been depressed that's been

neglected and there are no jobs many companies have been looted many factories have been destroyed again it's a very dark. you know era of this conflict some of the touch of thank you very much unfettered international thank you. and there's more still to come this hour the difficulties of educating during a pandemic how the coronavirus is further widening the gap between rich and poor. and putting a smile on faces of kyrgyzstan as children doctors battle a poorly funded system to treat their patients. and the italian champions are not backing down as head of to retain the title collection coming up in support.

of. one eye much of europe is colder than usual and snowy this u.n. year for example wintering ground which govern many birds is not looking to ticket lee bad to be honest however that is the direction which will the storm systems are now going that's reached in europe right across the baltic states that's the general tenor of things where the comes in from the west gets stormy to the mediterranean and turns right and just goes up to western side of the black sea this is now a blocking area mosque is not as cold as it was for example but in plenty of snow on the outs as more to come in the balkans been snowing in the british isles as well then you get the sun that's cold overnight but it's quite acceptable to add by day for those because of that sunshine but here's the story of vilnius rather overcast here the wind only slowly picks up but today you could see significant wind sure what you've got snow snow and snow with a pretty consistent round about 0 or just below a pretty nasty bitter winter but it's just this limited a real notice everyone else sees an improvement day today the exception might be

red to the $29.00 countries that have closed all schools because of covert 19 the ones in blue partially closed and the destruction is far from over this month 258000000 children have been unable to attend school because of the closures or children in more developed parts of the world have been able to continue classes remotely many without access to computers or the internet have been unable to learn here in chief antonio terrace mark the international day of education on sunday saying it's a fundamental right that must be protected to avert a catastrophe it's only going to go ports. the school year unlike any other they've known stockage class is mandatory hand sanitizing and of course one vital piece of uniform the facemask the one the number of infections in any given area becomes overwhelming they too are forced to close students then left at the mercy of their home circumstances especially those from households where parents are still going
12:35 am
out to work said it has a mini me that i am a mother and i also have a job to do so i'm worried about leaving my kid to learn at home during the pen demick i don't know if she will eat on time and study by herself staying at home alone without the company of her friends may also of course and psychological problems and i feel sad about this. with parents taking on the role of educate his juggling their work and teaching has left many fearing for their children's futures digital learning has taken over the classroom but for those who have children with special learning needs that can mean an extra expense on already strained household budgets minver pilot i have a child who needs a special assistant he has autism he needs special assistance and special school one day per week is not enough for him he's in a 3rd grade he doesn't know how to read write or spell. the economic fallout of the pandemic has had far reaching consequences for children around the world as well as
12:36 am
losing out on their education many are being forced prematurely into work in order to support families. every day when i come back home my hands smell like gas i take a shower have a meal sit with my father and then go to sleep i go to work from 9 am to 9 pm i work for 12 hours and. i didn't want the chrono pandemic to affect my studies as i want to finish them to become a pilot and make my dream come true educational experts predict that 10000000 of the world's most vulnerable children will fail to return to school and they're urging the international community to do all that is possible to prevent more lives from being disrupted and to get educators vaccinated faster so schools can open sooner rather than later it has and understood what's more the role of the just be able to is not just the role of instruction and. knowledge it's their role as
12:37 am
essentially leaders in their communities in many regions around the world really they must be good to keep in touch with the students as you say and what is happening that's something we should be really cherishing. the pandemic may have exposed the inequalities in education systems around the world but also the role that educators have in students' lives which goes beyond just teaching so hagar al-jazeera is being more about this so a charter contest or katherine how to say she joins us from cork in ireland by skype thanks very much indeed for being with us as always you say with the main psychological effect for children of these school closures you know it's not the same psychological effect for every child as you heard in the reports there are why huge differences depending on poverty and even gender so at a very basic level the loss of structure and routine has
12:38 am
a huge impact on children psychological well being the last the seeing their friends the loss of key people in their lives their teachers and it's important to remember those teachers are the 1st line of defense in terms of safeguarding against neglect and abuse so there are so many aspects of this from beginning with social learning and rostock to protecting against neglect and abuse and you talk to people around the world about this what sort of things are they telling about the height the risks that they're highlighting from from the closures. well within south africa has remained closed for an extended period of time and for many children there attending school is there one chase where they can access the meal so they may be at home know their parents may be either unemployed or so going out to work so you can either have financial hardship or lack of supervision there is lack of access to electricity for hours at a time the lack of access to devices and internet so the education is extremely
12:39 am
patchy and what it's doing is it's taking any disadvantage that our vulnerability that was already within a family in just magnify means many times over and if you use that look at yemen schools were closed for quite some time and after the 1st wave schools began to reopen in october and what we're seeing are huge overcrowding within classrooms and many children didn't return so for many children this is their premature ends to their education we have increases and to mystic violence substance abuse gender based violence and sexual abuse and early child marriage and child labor. there are so huge restraints now clearly that as you say there's a kind of a difference between outcomes if depending on what people's background is but all the things that parent could parents can do regardless of their income and that
12:40 am
might help children get through this period. yes definitely so the biggest protective factor in any in their relationship with their parents so there is no money involved in this this is simply the bond between parent and child parent child interaction so there are very many practical things that we can do system for children so providing structure and routine time for play a time for connection time out sites to protect and mental and physical health exercise and just really trying to be together as a family and fostering a sense of normality and you know we can either amplify the panic and stress that many of us feel or weekend too soon really trying to keep things as calm and relaxed as possible as a whole and they are being protective factors for children's mental health and i have talked about some of the detrimental effects of the pandemic has had on on children education and do you see any game as of hope is there anything during the
12:41 am
pandemic in terms of education that's actually been positive it'll well what has been really wonderful is to see the adaptability oh so many schools many teachers and for and for very many children they have a doctorate really well to remote learning and there are some families i work with who their children are striving they're spending more time as well when they are seeing their parents more there 'd is reduced stress and pressure and people schedules are much camer and fewer activities leaving more time for a play and exploration that free play and exploration which we know is really positive for mental health katherine harris and we'll leave it on that positive net thank you very much indeed for taking time to say ok thank you and decades of political instability have badly affected k. stands health sector clinics lack funding and basic equipment despite this health worker has a meeting a challenge head on and providing life changing treatment stratford visited
