territories unconsciously or. al-jazeera. where every. now. this is al-jazeera. hello i'm adrian for the get this is the live from doha coming up in the next 60 minutes u.s. pharmaceutical company but claims that its covert 19 vaccine is effective against the u.k.

and south african variants of the virus but the data is only preliminary. they denied it states will work on 3 fronts to promote innovation resilience and adaptation by the administration vows to make fighting climate change its top priority as world leaders meet virtually to deal with the crisis plus. immediately and police still surrounding i mean yes you know i want peace ugandan opposition leader bobby wian says that he is still under house arrest hours after the high court ordered security forces to leave his predecessor's. added look at what's changed in the 10 years since egypt's revolution calling for an end to poverty unemployment and corruption. in sports english premier league side chelsea have sacked to manage it frank lampard the chelsea playing legend fired after just 18 months in the job following a call run afford. one. the

u.s. pharmaceutical company says that its coded 19 vaccine appears to work against new coronavirus variants the early findings show a success against the u.k. variant but the vaccine is less effective against the south african variant the mutated strains are more infectious at a spreading fost in a number of countries pfizer is also said that it's faxing appears to work on the u.k. variant and gallagher is live for us on this from miami and he tell us more. well what we know adrian is this is a shape shifting virus and these mutations are popping up all over the world what we're talking about in particular are the variants 1st found in the u.k. in south africa now modernise says against u.k. variant their original vaccine is effective but against a south african one it may be 6 fold less effective although they say the antibodies will still offer some protection now the company which was one among

among the 1st to develop a vaccine says out of an abundance of caution they are now working on another vaccine specifically to treat this south african variant they say that may come in the form of a booster so once you've had the original injections number one and number 2 that goes to make up something like a year afterwards and be on a case by case basis it is i think a reflection of just the challenges that the medical community is facing but i think potentially good news for people that are worried that the original vaccine does offer protection for these 2 variants all the big pharmaceutical companies here say they are working on various different vaccines to treat these mutations as they come and go meanwhile here in the united states president joe biden has just put a travel ban in place that was taken away by president chuck just 2 days before he left office what that means is non u.s. residents from 26 european nations the u.k. and ireland brazil and south africa will not be allowed to come to the united

states that it specifically to tackle these new variants in the u.k. version of those variants have been found in 20 states here so i think. it is potentially good news they say the original vaccine does offer some protection and they say they can get this 2nd boost to one out and as little as 42 days only gallagher reporting live from miami and the many thanks indeed and we found some effects in ologist vice president of vaccine research and development of blue with biologics he joins us now from an arbor michigan good to have you with us again sort of a donor says that it's very soon appears to work against you variance that's good news is good. yeah it's great news that all these variants that you are seeing here and then all of covered by the vaccine and all of the vaccines actually because the immune response is. not vaccine isn't using it's similar to other vaccines out of

vaccines therefore any good news from one place is good news for the others on the point that we really have to make sure that everybody's understanding is that we are not losing the protective a c. off the vaccine because of these funds there are a variety of bill in indiana live a lot of protection but still we are protected against that so there is no issue with regards to escape vaccine escape on and end this case so when they think and i do that would like sorry i just want to pick you up on that point before you make your 2nd point there when they say that the vaccine is less effective against the south african variant what does that mean. it means that you maybe need more immune a stronger immune response to tackle this that this virus but to still divide us is susceptible to the immune response. like other variants sort of the origin of the virus there's some kind of resistance but you need still basic a c.

might not to be 90 percent it could be going down to 70 percent but that's not so easy it's an issue that we have to deal with but this is not really putting us on a down ward kind of away from the vaccines that are being developed like now but if the event if the virus continues to mutate as it seems to be doing does this mean the coded $1000.00 vaccinations will become almost like the flu vaccine something that you get every year. yes there is that there is an issue he added that if the virus continued to change the question is that how can we really stop that that notion or that movement toward a new audience that will disappear i think that is one area that we have to be careful that we have to be to attend to is the distribute the. virus on

the spread off the virus while the virus is spreading almost a freely in the community we have to block it the more the viruses but i think in the water mutation we have to tackle this problem of spreading the virus and trying to stop it is very important because if the virus is not to spreading into a community then the chances for having more and more of the asian and mutations would be much less so therefore we could look at this as as. yes thought maybe often our eyes on change on issues and also that the new technologies which is a great news the new technology kind of spawned to any vaccine escape vein a short period of time and we can get a vaccine that was tackled that problem but definitely the issue of the spread of the virus in the community needs to be attended to by everybody it's always good to

talk to so many thanks indeed only for us and that. in michigan thank you. germany's government is increasingly concerned by the spread of corona virus variants their entire hospital in berlin was put under quarantine on saturday after an outbreak of the u.k. variant was found the health minister says that it's adding to the urgency to approve more vaccines he says that iraqi elaters are likely to approve the vaccine developed by astra zeneca at the university of oxford this coming friday after serious thought it came in berlin says the number of daily cases in germany continues to decline but officials say the danger of infection remains high the main concern emerging now from ministerial circles me in berlin birds elsewhere in germany too is about the new variant 1st identified in the united kingdom the minister had a good hand who works in the chancellor alongside anglo-american on

a day to day basis where he told german news outlets in sunday evening that he has no doubt he's certain that the new variant 1st identified in the united kingdom will very soon overtake the original coronavirus in become dominant in this country that explains the haste with which the ministerial circles here have tried to intensify locked and sort of said that people need to wear masks that can withstand a virus better that can protect people against the virus better why they've extended lockdowns why are they keeping schools shut wherever possible all because their belief is that the new variant will soon dominate in this country and because it's so much more infectious that's why they're taking their precautions. he zealand's 1st community coronavirus case in months was likely spread during quarantine a woman tested positive just days after completing 2 weeks of mandatory quarantine

after arriving in the country it's believed that she caught the more infectious south african variant of the virus from another traveller inside the corinth team facility that the case has now been given confirmed status it was a probable cases today it is now a confirmed case we know that the person's husband and he had researched negative i would say i outlined this morning it's a very encouraging development that we can also confirm that the strain of in fiction is the south african variant and the source of in fiction is highly likely to be a fairly rich a neat during the person stay at the pole in hotel and australia has halted its travel bubble with 2 zealand in response to the new case anyone travelling in the next 3 days were be able to skip the 2 week ornstein. mexico's president and those manuel lopez obrador has tested positive for covert 19 the 67 year old tweeted that he's being treated for mild symptoms and will continue to work for the

presidential palace as a little has been criticized for his handling of the pandemic that's killed nearly 150000 mexicans the country has the world's 4th highest death toll. job losses during the pandemic opin 4 times higher than those from the 2009 global financial crisis that's according to the international labor organization which says that more than 8 percent of global working hours that's equal to 255000000 jobs were lost last year women have been more affected than men and jungle workers have also been hit hard it's not all bad news the report says that is covered by 900 vaccinations take effect most countries will see a recovery in the 2nd half of this here showing on labor is the director of the employment policy department of the international labor organization says that many industries won't see a turnaround until the 2nd half of this year we actually have

a sindhi core range of jobs and was found been destroyed in the last year pe teacher a 'd daughter sectors flank of the accommodation and we had some contractor manufacturing so some service sectors and men factors were hit very hard to compare to the bits we have to try to actually include those workers from the rural sector samples the informal economy as you are there are so heavily affected by the call with 9 kiran but in the case of a rural economy because of the nature of their work they are relatively speaking less actually exposed to the cold in 1000 related impacts on the labor market compared to the urban sectors but again informal economy is what you really have to be affected by the crisis because of or street thank you look the measures. we actually expect that the 1st half of it this year is faster in the what advanced countries in europe and the u.s.

continues to be very difficult to so we expect quite a significant to the level of the working our losses priss thing the 2nd half of the 1st half a year so we cooperate on the horizon you know our view will be the 2nd half of the year. it's possible to come on this news hour including the challenge of climate change for the netherlands one of the lowest lying nations on us. on the edge of the atlantic in the city of st louis in sinegal in what is a huge disco world heritage sites being destroyed by the rising you should find out it's white people you're struggling to cope with a changing climate. in sports a new team but the same story for n.f.l. superstar tom brady and here with that and the rest of the baseball for middle east . world leaders have been addressing a summit on how to adapt to climate change one of the biggest challenges facing

mankind it's hosted by the netherlands brings together more than $120.00 nations along with $98.00 global bodies while previous summits of focused on the causes of climate change this is the 1st on coping with the effects nearest presented at the summit suggests that hof a 1000000 people have been killed by extreme weather events this century the u.s. is promising global leadership president joe biden's climate envoy john kerry is making his 1st appearance of the global summit last week by an agreed to return to the 2015 paris climate or cools. as in biden knows that we have to mobilize an unprecedented ways to meet a challenge that is fast accelerating and he knows we have limited time to get it under control but that reason united states immediately rejoined the paris agreement and we intend to do everything we possibly can to ensure that caught 26 results in an ambitious climate action in which all major emitter countries raise

ambitions significantly and in which we help protect those who are the most vulnerable service company helka joins us now live from washington d.c. company tell us more about the bite that ministrations ambitions on climate change . well i think it's notable the special envoy for climate change john kerry there as he spoke that it's not only a shift in tone with the biden administration from the previous trump administration but also it's a major shift in policy on tone it was notable that john kerry spoke in terms that were rather contrite apologizing for the policies of the last 4 years and knowledge ing that by the administration believes that the united states and its leadership role has really lost some precious time in working with the global community to combat climate change and its result is promising to do all it can moving forward

into that and what is promising to do is to sort of have some sort of strong achievements at least by the year 2035 it's promising to transition the united states to 100 percent renewable so not only are we seeing these very defined benchmarks but also we're seeing the fact that there is not only this announcement of rejoining the paris climate accord but also internally within the united states we saw in the early days of the administration the announcement that the counseling of the federal permit for the keystone pipeline now given the fact that this was a job driver this is controversial so well this may be too that the international community is welcoming there is controversy domestically for some of biden's policies given the fact that while he is promising if jobs are killed that new jobs will be created many would argue that during a pandemic this is simply not the right time as the u.s. struggles to rebuild its economy so certainly these are welcomed words from john

kerry but domestically there are still some challenges the biden administration is facing a white house correspondent kimberly how could reporting live from washington could be many things. dutch prime minister has highlighted the challenges due to global warming faced by poor nations in his inaugural speech at that event if we fail to act climate change could push more than 100000000 people in developing countries below the poverty line by 2030 but also one that lets for us here to climate adaptation is a matter of pure survival and a large part of my country lies below sea level as you know the netherlands is a small densely populated and resourceful country so we are very ambitious but we are reaching at the same time the limits of what climate nature but also the environment can cope with so business as usual is no longer an option for my

country and for many others in the same situation whatever amount 0 steps and the hague. well we've been listening to 30 world leaders government leaders in the last couple of hours and they all make very strong commitments to put money in the into climate adaptation as of course it's significant that the $2.00 largest emitters china and the united states are involved as well but of course this summit comes at a very crucial time when all the countries are struggling with the covert 19 pandemic and that's of course immediately the 1st question will they actually put this money in climate friendly investments and that's where a lot of people are worried about so that's why for a marker to the prime minister of the nat'l and sab climate should be at the heart of this covert 19 response so the 12 trillion u.s. dollars that worldwide it's black to put into the recovery of economies should go

to climate adaptation at least part of it it's very important because especially also in an adolescence the country is 30 percent below sea level we've been struggling here not only way to change in weather storms but also drop and rising sea levels. from the climate change conference earlier stop filed this report about why people in the netherlands are concerned for global warming managing water has always been a matter of survival for the dutch if it weren't for the 22000 kilometers of dikes a large part of this land would not even exist but increasingly the country's defense against the elements has to be strengthened against rising sea levels and storms the often low house has lived on the water for decades and after documented in the effects of climate change in his own country and around the world he says too much time is lost. it is quite possible that if nothing happens.

she level of the century which is 18 years which is one generation so that would be catastrophic it would mean that. would. be more and have to be. the dangers not only come from the sea but also from the river us that are swallowing more rain water than before storms like these are increasingly common over the dutch lowlands the strong winds and high waves are threatening the country's dikes that were built hundreds of years ago only up until here and now have to be meet us higher a race against time as the climate is changing more rapidly than predicted. in 195-3000 died in the south of the nataline's during floods after the disaster large dams sluices and storm surge barriers were constructed the moslem clearing 4

the capitol to the senate this was a little over a year ago but for the 1st time in american history this ritual is to be repeated against the same man. this marked the beginning of the chain of events that led to impeachment. joe biden declares victory in the november election but his opponent donald trump refused to acknowledge it and declined to concede if you count the legal votes easily when instead a sitting president mounted of their religion campaign against the result deeming the process fraudulent and contesting it in dozens of courts all in vain. the supreme court including 3 off trump's picks simply ignored repeated requests to take up any of the cases and an increasingly frustrated president focused in on preventing the vote being certified in congress that it will keep pressing his vice

president to abandon his constitutional duty and prevent certification once again in vain let's get back to work in a series of tweets he urged his supporters to come to the capitol to protest it will be wild he promised and when they arrived the article of impeachment alleges that then president incited them to riot now it is up to congress to confront this egregious assault on our democracy and after this we're going to walk down and i'll be there with you we're going to walk down because you'll never take back to our country with weakness you have to show strength and you have to be strong be seen so it's alleged by a majority in the house. was a direct consequence of trump's words and actions in contesting the democratic vote

as if it's not enough that he sent an angry mob down the mall to invade the capitol didn't try to stop it and a police officer was killed i don't really know what else you need to know some senate republicans say they've already made up their minds not to impeach the 1st chance i get to vote to end this trial and do it because i think it's really bad for america for others are keeping open minds it's your article of impeachment that was sent over by the house suggests impeachable conduct but we have not yet heard either from the prosecution or for that from the defense in the last trial then president trump was confident of the outcome is confidence in the decision up or a public and controlled senate was not misplaced only one republican registered to vote alongside the democrats but just over a year later the dynamics have changed and democrats have a slim majority in

a senate that will act as jury healing and unity will only come if there is truth and accountability and that is what this trial will provide and if a minimum of 17 republicans vote to convict these could be the last pictures of donald trump holding any form of public office mike hanna al-jazeera washington bruce fein is a former u.s. associate deputy attorney general he joins us now live via skype from washington d.c. proust good to have you back with assume the senate will convene to decide upon the rules of the trial once the articles of impeachment been handed over what might those rules look like. first of all they have to set a time for beginning the trial which at least tentatively seems to be february 8th an agreement hammered out between majority leader schumer and mitch mcconnell the

former majority leader now when you go for the the actual details of the trial one of the 1st issues that has to be confronted is whether chief justice john roberts will preside as he did at the prior impeachment trial when the president was still in office of the constitution is silent on who presides when you would are hammering articles of impeachment against someone who is no longer the president of the united states by own view is that the chief justice should preside because the important new gravity of the circumstances need to have a solemn independent party preside rather than a partisan which would be the case if the chief was not there after all we know this is really about 2 fold things one whether mr trump will be capable of running for president in 2024 continued to divide the country and the and room for years

and whether we set a standard of impeach bill conduct that will deter any future president from imitating mr trump's wrecking ball to the constitution and that's why i think the chief justice should preside with other garda other issues they will set the ground rules for calling the live witnesses you know and how long the trial will continue the length of cross-examination the closing arguments including a meijer issue of when and how they will take up the question which will surely be raised by some of the republicans if there is jurisdiction to have an impeachment trial against a former president the only precedent came in 1976 when. the secretary of war resigned even before articles and pietschmann were voted in the house he made the argument that since he's not in office he's not a civil officer and therefore the senate could not try him that argument failed by

a vote of 37 to 29 and the trial went forward but a secretary of force not the president and the president in senate procedure is not as binding as it is in a court decisions ok so that's what we are looking forward to the next few days as we see the details of the trial procedure to be hammered out that is true now with the senate you control the democrats they have the authority to decide for themselves without republican concerns they want those details bristly they say that they want to try to begin on february the sentences have made it clear that they want this to be over with quickly and so they can get on with with with the other important business like the pandemic but despite brewery 8th give the president and his legal team enough time to prepare doesn't give the prosecution's enough time to prepare. well we have new evidence that's unfolding every day as you may recall just in the last couple of days we have further evidence of the

president's corrupt intent here when he was plotting with a junior official david clarke and the justice department to see whether he could fire the acting attorney and therefore. he and prevent. the georgia legislature from certifying the votes by saying that there was an active criminal investigation underway when there was not and that's directly revelle relevant to the portion of the impeachment article that accuses mr trump of approaching the secretary of state in georgia and asking to falsify election returns to find an additional 12000 votes for him at the threat of criminal prosecution if he did not and with this new evidence i think senators may change their mind as to how much time is needed to have a full airing i remember right now in the the radar screen is a little bit off impeachment because the trial is away and the news cycle as 24 hours periscope to it it's not brought but i think that even though there is that

initial feeling that the trial should be swift when the evidence is there and the american people aren't gauged that that understanding may change especially when i believe they'll be new evidence of members who participated in the storming saying that they certainly were following orders of mr trumpeting and when we have evidence of the fire extinguishers that naives the hockey sticks and the poll of polls that were in the hands of the audience that he was speaking to when he said you've got to stand up and fight you can't be weak and what is that other than an x. or taishan to go up and try to stop the vote count by the feis present tense which is exactly what happened 1st who was going to talk to you many thanks to to being with us bruce find that in washington d.c. . the indian army says that there's been a mine a faceoff between its troops and chinese forces it happened in the cooler and

there were scenes that's gripped the world's attention for 18 straight days millions of egyptians demonstrated in the streets and squares of the country's cities ultimately bringing about the end of president hosni mubarak's 30 year rule the the protests began on january the 25th with wholesome social media platforms for people to take to the streets demanding freedom justice and bread. those calls by unarmed civilians were met with a type of police brutality that was synonymous with the mubarak regime consequently the demands and chants shifted to a simple and very clear one. shaab you read scott in the rom or the people demand the form of the regime. on february the 11th it's felt or solo the faults were boxed up the site and the country's military generals took charge despite attempts by the army to maintain power they were forced to allow the

country's 1st ever free and fair parliamentary elections to take place those were then followed by a vote for the presidency which resulted in the muslim brotherhood parties mohamed morsi becoming egypt's 1st ever democratically elected president. throughout that time social and economic instability became the norm egyptians had begun experiencing political freedom but living conditions remained bad regular and it tricity outages and the never ending fuel shortage crisis led many to direct their opposition to egypt's post revolution president discontents continued to rise and in 2013 supported by the army and police another mass protest took place will be it's far smaller in size and. shorter in duration than that of 2011. the protesters said morsi had to go because he failed to deliver on the goals of the revolution his supporters said it was the counter revolution that had been sabotaged the morsi

presidency and was now behind the unrest it's led to transpired that most of the crises were in fact manufactured and the violence which rocked egypt streets had been encouraged by a deep state but lots of traverse the gains of the gen-u. 25th revolution. the removal of morsi by a military coup in 2013 installed on the general abdul fatah has sisi as either an ultimate the president it. since assisi came to power in egypt has become the world's 2nd largest borrower from the i.m.f. in 2014 the country had a foreign debt of $46000000000.00 today that figure is more than 125000000000 poverty levels in egypt have increased just a clique and more than 50 percent of the country's revenue is spent on trying to pay back its foreign debt. and c.c. points to infrastructure projects like the expansion of the suez canal and the

construction of a new administrative capital to justify the loans but he's also found money to build several huge new palaces and buy a new presidential plane amongst other things but here ok actions that have enraged the egyptian public the vast majority of which lives on or below the poverty line 10 years on in cairo's tahrir square is a far cry from what it's looked like egypt is not the country those who protested dreamed it would become and for tens of millions of egyptians they have little in the way of freedom justice and broad. al-jazeera. time now on the news hour for sports here's andy thank you so much enjoyment for price and jim on coach thomas circle except to become the new chelsea manager at the london club firing frank lampard earlier on this monday former chelsea pile i am part of only been in the job for 18 months but a recent run of all form in the league has left the team in mid sable the club and spent more than 2 $100000000.00 on new players ahead of the season is former

arrival at manchester city pep guardiola says club owners need to be more patient every manager you know needs need time need time to you know to to do would do would you believe or make feel the players that does a medal or the other we believe in these who go through in this idea. and that is an exceptional few few places in the or in the world because all the boards and the owners and the ceos and as for the were results immediately middle and middle well joining is now is the one extending from the digital sports network the athletic rafael thanks so much for joining us of the chelsea's owner not known for his patience but were you a little surprised by the decisions fall apart now i was surprised by the timing because frank lampard had of course won the cup game against luton just the day before but unfortunately the patients i think had already started to run pretty

finn as far as the owners concerned. had some decent results last season but the big push towards competitiveness is fast sharon charging for the primary target was concerned security of the top 4 consulate there is you know all these things didn't happen if anything chances are regress and that's why i think it was on part time and tell us a little bit about the man who we expect to take care of it's almost sequel how will his character fit in at chelsea do you think. it's an excellent question and there's no straightforward answer because to most of our is widely recognized as a top manager but he can be a little bit stubborn and abrasive and bof a document where he worked before his recent job but person to man indeed and in france there were issues with subpoenas he did have a falling out with a sporting director and dog when he did that performing up with a sporting director paris of the transfer policy and of course chassis as

a manager you not ever really in full control as far as the clubs why the strategic decisions are concerned so there is a worry at the same time i think chelsea have looked at his work on the pitch and decided that that risk if you will is worth taking because his teams tend to play some really good football he's very babblings approach and very attacking and success usually follows so bit of a risk i think as far as the peace in the wider political landscape or chassis is concerned but definitely i think an improvement as far as bringing out a team that will be collectively much more cohesive and tactically sophisticated i mean the club are spent a huge amount of money in recent months do you think he would have sought some assurances that there is money for him to spend when he takes over. maybe but i think the main reason why he and other german coaches indeed are in demand is because they don't tend to work in those ways they see themselves as coaches rather

than managers they are used to working with the resources that hand and improving them making individuals and teams collectively better through the ability of giving them tactical instructions technical instructions and that's one of the reasons why i think they seem to be very much in the man at the moment i don't think you would have come in there with a shopping list of saying you know i need a new striker and you need to feel the need to need to defend he not more junk conscious work like that i think the attraction but of course as a soldier a minute ago he does have some strong views and if he feels that the club is on a completely different page you has no shyness and making that voice heard and that makes him maybe slightly volatile appointment certainly in the mid term perspective so it would be very interesting to see if he of a club can sort of find a good compromise to work together for more than just a short spell roughly 100 star joining is from the athletic thank you so if it's on

rafa. now n.f.l. franchise the san francisco 49 ers have increased their stake in premier league team leeds united the 49 ers now and more than a 3rd of the club that's promoted back into the english top flight this season leaves its wealth in the league but the american backers have their sights set considerably higher. you want to win you want to be competitive you want to show you belong you want to compete for the ice level trophies and championships and for us it's 1st assuring we belong back this competing in europa and and eventually is competing in champions league that's the goal of a new team but the same story for n.f.l. superstar tom brady the 43 year old be playing in his 10th super bowl this time with the tampa bay buccaneers after 2 decades with the new england patriots and in his 1st season with tampa be caught about in the books to a $3126.00 win over the green bay packers in the n.f.c. championship gang and i'll take on reigning champions the kansas city chiefs the

super bowl $0.55 he played at sampras home stadium. but we spoke to us sports broadcaster michael colson about the latest chapter in brady's age defying career. i think it's absolutely huge that there aren't many quarterbacks the n.f.l. who have even had successful seasons at that age and to join a new team admittedly a pretty good team that was just lacking in one or 2 things including a quarterback who wouldn't turn the ball over and then them to the super bowl it is an amazing feat and when you look back at brady's time with the patriots in and how many super bowls and how many conference championships games he's been to it's something that's really unmatched in team sports in the us i think what he had in bill belichick his coach what was a kind of perfect symmetry and he was able to adjust his game to whatever game plan the patriots were using in a given week which often changed dramatically unlike most teams in the n.f.l.

and year by year so in some years they were a running team when they had randy moss they were a deep passing team apt to that they were short passing team and brady adjusted brilliantly i don't think there are many quarterbacks who read the game as well as he does which is a huge part of playing the position as much if not more so than having the really strong arm that a lot of quarterbacks do and it took ian bruce ariens his new head coach a little while to adjust to each other but i think what we've seen in the 2nd half of the season and in the playoffs is that brady and areas are pretty much on the same page on cheese that will mark the one year anniversary of kobe bryant's death the basketball legend was killed in a helicopter crash at the age of $41.00 brown spent his insights once a year playing career with the l.a. lakers an old same's in the league sets a mark the dates of the next 24 hours. ok that is all from a friend and many thanks indeed and finally as they say all the best news program
