on monday them address high court in the southern city of chennai said india's election commission is single handedly responsible for the 2nd wave of the coronavirus elizabeth piron an al-jazeera you daddy. white house correspondent kimberly help it has more on why the u.s. is releasing millions of doses of the astra zeneca vaccine the u.s. is sending the astra zeneca vaccines and we should point out there not even a use in the united states and that's why there was pressure given the fact that 53 percent or more of the u.s. population now has been vaccinated with the dirt of the pfizer even the johnson and johnson vaccine there were real questions about why the stockpile was just sitting there when other countries particularly india right now are in crisis so responding to that global pressure the white house announcing that it will be releasing this vaccine and we should point out that given the fact that it hasn't been approved in

the united states it is going to be going through a strict quality control procedure are processed through the food and drug administration but again this is something that has been announced just in the last couple of hours by the white house press secretary and also we should point out that in the united states not only is 53 percent of the population been vaccinated but in some cases in urban areas now there is more supply than there is demand and so as a result of this reality here in the united states the white house making the decision that it was time to act and send some of that to other countries that are and struggling and need the german chancellor angela merkel says europe as a whole is looking at what assistance can be offered by new limits and. above all we will 1st see how we can help india we are now working at full speed to see what extent we can send oxygen producing equipment down the whole of europe is doing this i also spoke about this today with the portuguese prime minister who now holds

the european council presidency we want to do everything we can to help india. we're joined now by skype by dr karen ranker and john he's an n.h.s. surgeon and also part of team halo a group of medics and scientists working to encourage the use of vaccines he has family in the strait they state the region of india worst hit by kobe 1000 they say much need for being with us of want to ask you 1st of all about your friends and your family there how they're getting on. so you think the most my friends and family they are safe and they're not require a machine to ask you to thank you staying safe but it's just worrying not being able to go out and see them because typically our go out to india at least 2 or 3 times a year. and what about the health care workers there are you in touch with people and and the situation they're facing what kind of protection do they have. so i think a lot of healthcare workers maybe haven't got access to vaccines and i think it's you know not being able to get access to vaccines protect themselves or speak on

the front line you know also not being able to provide the full of the service that they're expected provide patients you know patients are sharing hospital beds running out of oxygen running out of you know basic requirements that you need to support critically ill patients and now you've been part of the operations over here to do with with kobe and. what's your impression of why this has been so serious in india. i mean i think it's a stark reminder to many countries how if you let your factions run out of control you know you can get buried sinew taishan ins and you know social distancing mask wearing it's been proven to work and the opposite has been proven you know to a negative outcome in india where social distancing in mosques and they're actually hasn't been aided to or hasn't been as effectively and as results you know you can see the scenes you're seeing now and that's also been in

a similar replicated in brazil where the health care systems or from the verge of collapse as well and the help has started to arrive at least as being promised how much difference will that make and how quickly can the government that take to take control of the situation you know i think is you know fantastic that other countries are chipping in and providing aid support to india because you know this is a global pandemic and you know if you drop a black ink in a bowl of water the it doesn't stay in one area it's pretty strong water so you know if india is not under control the world is not going to get rid of this pandemic so he had the fires all the pandemic have to be put up everywhere for us to go back to normality so the quicker everyone provides a 3. to vaccination rollout and the quicker we can look to go back to some semblance of normality how much is a lack of information being part of the issue that you think. you know i think it

stephanie you know big issues well in america you have the c.d.c. in the u.k. we have the n.h.s. websites and other sort of government led top down initiatives that can help to draw public understanding of vaccines and you know explain things and hopefully you know change the tide and make people aware of the need for vaccines and why and when and how they can actually get vaccines and why they need to search the distance in all these things and i think those sort of infrastructures public health initiatives and drives those educational policies that are there maybe not so rigidly you know i did 2 in india and you know various things where i think one of the things is probably lack of funding for governments hospitals and so i think it's very difficult to gets this white print message out to billions of people in india dr rangarajan thank you very much indeed for joining us thank you the european union is suing the pharmaceutical company astra zeneca after delays in

the delivery of coated 19 vaccines it's accused the company of breaching its contract to supply enough jobs for the block astra zeneca says the legal action is without marriage and that it has complied with the agreement and talks about lawyers in paris with more on why the european union is making this move. they might be wanting to put more pressure on the british swedish pharmaceutical company to speed up the delivery of its doses they've also come under quite a bit of a criticism from member states for the slow rifaximin roll out in the e.u. which is a seen very much as being the commission's responsibility the commission saying that that slow rollout was in part due to the fact that they just didn't have enough astra zeneca doses at least not the ones that they said they were promised 30000000 doses of astra zeneca were delivered by the company in the 1st quarter the year that's far short of the 120000000 doses that the e.u.

commission say were promised under the contract that it signed with astra zeneca now that is why they're launching this legal action the you commission says that astra zeneca simply breached its contract and also failed to find other ways of making up the shortfall for example the commission said that astra zeneca could for example have diverted doses from the u.k. where those doses were being produced to the e.u. when needed now astra zeneca has responded to this legal action they say that there's no merit in it and that they look forward to being able to clear their name in court italy's prime minister has revealed at the biggest postcode stimulus plan in europe in the hopes of rebuilding one of the worst hit economies much of the $265000000000.00 aid package will come from special you funds with the money due to be spent on digital innovation and environmental projects draggy said the plans

study is challenging coded 19 social distancing guidelines adopted across much of the world researches at the massachusetts institute of technology say people who maintain 20 metres of distance from others indoors a no more protected than if they socially distance by just 2 metres that's because forest droplets mix with body heat and air currents in the space to rise and travel throughout the entire room no matter how socially distance a person is a study argues it's more important how long you're inside with an infected person and how far away you are it suggests opening windows or installing a proper ventilation to keep the air moving and prevent transmission on the issue of indoor transmissions one being considered in a number of european countries as businesses and schools reopen students in france have returned to primary schools despite a recent increase in infections and some fear it could lead to a rise in cases but amicia dodger's

a senior scholar at johns hopkins center for health security joins us live from pittsburgh in the u.s. state of pennsylvania thanks very much indeed for being with us so what did you make of the mit study. not a whole lot if you look at this study you have to remember that this is a mathematical modeling study in one of the assumptions in this modeling study is that instantaneously someone with covert 1000 that their breath those droplets mix throughout the entire room and that's not reactionary true so if you look at the epidemiological data of how people get infected we're not seeing people get infected 20 meters away we're seeing people that are in close contact that's where that that transmission is so i don't really put much stock into this i think this isn't really something that fits with what we see on the ground when we look at case by case contact investigations of how people are getting infected we would have a totally different epidemiology of infection if people were getting infected regularly at 20 meters apart so i don't think that this is anything that should change our

guidance or change the way we're doing things with this with this virus coming there's also been in the u.k. a letter by a group of 22 scientists they've written open letter arguing that mandatory social distancing and facemasks should be scrapped from june this year the time that's when the u.k. is due to. take the final step out of lockdown if you like what do you make of that suggestion that that that those social distancing measures ought to go at the same time of the end of knocked down. so it really all depends upon what's going on in the u.k. so if hospital capacity is something that's no longer a threat because so many people have been vaccinated is community spread is something that is of the past and not ongoing i do think you can start to ease up on some of these social distancing measures it really depends upon what the situation is in a given country and i and i do think as more and more of the population is vaccinated these social distancing measures are going to evaporate as people are able to to go about their lives fear from the free from the fear of covert 19 and

we've removed the ability of the virus to cause serious disease hospitalization and death through vaccination. then what's interesting is that the c.d.c. in the in the u.s. has given updated guidance for people who've been vaccinated where's the u.k. hasn't and it's so said you know things like requirement for mosques might change if you've been vaccinated it does it on the mind that the message that the vaccines are effective if you don't then at the same time say actually you can now stop wearing masks indoors if you're fully vaccinated and so on. i definitely think that there has been a lot of underselling of these vaccines these vaccines not only prevent you from getting serious disease or being hospitalized or dying they also prevent you from spreading this infection to a large degree and we've seen that include countries like israel so it's very important for an individual to know that this vaccine changes their personal life that they get their life back they can do activities free from the worry of covert 19 that they've had for over a year so we really have to talk about how these vaccines benefit people personally what a value they are to people in order to persuade them to get it some things do change

and i do think the c.d.c. guidance is cautious but it does it does say that if you're fully vaccinated you can mix with other fully vaccinated people without a mask you can mix with certain unvaccinated people you can travel without worry all of that is really important too to set the tone for what the world is going to look like after you've been vaccinated and that does drive people to get the vaccine because it is a value to their personal life just to return to the to the mit study a nation didn't think it did much but did it did it highlight the issue of ventilation which perhaps has been a sort of one thing that was ignored in in when people brought in new measures to combat kevin 1000 that perhaps the issue of interaction wasn't sufficient understood originally. at the very beginning of this pandemic there was a lot of concern on surface transmission we had people that were cleaning their mail cleaning their groceries and that really wasn't how people were getting infected and i do think we lost the opportunity to talk about the transmission risks in indoor settings and one of the ways to decrease your risk in an indoor

setting is just to simply increase the ventilation and that can be as simple as opening a window that's going to decrease transmission so i think that this is something that's important and we want people to take the actions that actually have an impact on their risk for covert increasing ventilation in indoor settings is something that is important i do not think in most situations oh people can get infected at 60 feet away or 2520 meters away but in general if you can open a window when you're around people especially unvaccinated people that's going to decrease the risk of infection to amish to thank you very much indeed for taking the time to talk to us appreciate it thank. the u.s. justice department has opened an investigation into the louisville kentucky police department is offices shot and killed a black woman found attain a during a botched raid at her home last year it had death sparked widespread protests against police brutality and racial inequality mike hanna is live from washington d.c. and mike a 2nd investigation announced by the attorney general what's bodman mistrusting trying to achieve. well it's making very clear indeed that it will

bring the full weight of the federal government into investigating allegations of police misconduct particularly with regard to the killing of african americans this is the 2nd justice department investigation that's been launched the previous one in minneapolis which was announced last week and the terms of those are the same the attorney general has instructed the justice department to investigate whether there was any wrongdoing in the death of taylor as it was with the death of george floyd which was announced last week but very clearly what is happening here is that the biden administration is using every weapon as disposal to investigate the spate of killings and importantly to the attorney general merrick garland said that he has received full cooperation from the police in minneapolis and he's spoken to the police in louisville and they have pledged their copper corp to him as well so this

is a co-operative venture but very clearly the biden administration is going to get to the bottom of all of the shootings and meanwhile the anger still growing over the shooting of another black man in north carolina. indeed yes well with yet another shooting this happened last week in the elizabeth city north carolina andrew brown was reportedly shot in the back of by north carolina deputies now what has happened there is that his family after days of asking have finally been allowed to see the body count footage of the shooting now in north carolina a body cam footage is not public domain you have to get a court order to see it now the family are absolutely incensed because having gone to see the body count footage they were shown according to the tourney only 20 seconds of hitting the video which they say did show the man being shot in the back

by the deputies however they are still insisting to see the full range of body camera footage and certainly this is something that is going to continue to cause disruption within elizabeth city and why the north carolina yet another shooting of an african american i cannot thank you very much indeed in 2015 this zeke a virus swept through the americas causing severe birth defects the world health organization declared it a public health emergency zeek a virus made it as far east as the cape verde islands off the western coast of africa before suddenly disappearing nicholas haq reports from the capital prior on the aftermath of the zico outbreak 6 years on. alice was not the child her mother expected larger was 3 months pregnant when doctors told her she was infected with zeke of iris and that her unborn daughter would suffer from lifelong disabilities realizing that alice will never have
