yes the vaccines are about saving your life but also the lives of the people around you our white house correspondent kimberly allocate explains that this is an incentive based approach to easing restrictions. just prior to joe biden making that address to the nation there or here at the white house he did in fact have his team of public health officials speaking to reporters and they said this is exactly what they hope the effects will be of this lifting of the mask guidelines for those fully vaccinated the public health campaign has really been successful so far new numbers show us that more than half of all americans have now received at least one dose of the pfizer mcgurn or johnson and johnson vaccine and the hope is is that this trajectory will continue but what we're seeing in the united states is that now it seems to be a case of more supply than there is demand because of that vaccine hesitancy in

some communities that's why the public health officials and the president are hoping this lifting of the mask mandate for outdoor small gatherings will be the incentive that people need to go and get the vaccination themselves brazil's senate has launched an inquiry into the government's handling of the current virus pandemic nearly 400000 brazilians have died from cope with 19 that's the world's 2nd highest death toll the probe will determine whether federal or state governments committed criminal negligence or corruption president variable sonera has continuously downplayed the impacts of the virus while also posing lockdowns as well as the use of masks monaghan a camp is joining us from rio de janeiro's you 1st tell us about the senate inquiry monica. yes well there have been several accusations against the government about the way it has been handling the and make and the accusations are the president also not or has downplayed it

calling it a little flu has not used a mask has fought mayors and governors that have been posed restrictions in order to protect the population he has also spoken out against vaccines the corona vaccine from china and also the pfizer vaccine pfizer had offered brazil vaccines last year they were turned down and at a certain point present edibles amount of said that the reason was that they were the company was not did not want to be held responsible for any side effects and he mentioned that women my world and or people can turn into alligators so he has done a lot to convey to make people not trust vaccines not really comply with safety rules and those are the things that are going to be investigated and also the delay in starting the knock you lieschen campaign and why has brazil's

regulator rejected requests by several states to import russian vaccine. well that isn't our friend situation. the reason that the health people that were the investigators that work in brazil's health regulatory agency what they say is that there isn't enough proof that this vaccine is safe they tried to visit the plant in russia and said they didn't have an access to it they also said that they weren't given enough documentation to. assure people that there would be no problems with this vaccine so that is basically it's this is really due to safety measures other than it's not a politically motivated reason ok monica thank you so much for that update from rio

f.b.i. has opened a federal civil rights investigation into the killing of another unarmed black man by police in the us state of north carolina the announcement comes after an independent autopsy revealed andrew brown was shot 5 times lawyers for brown's family say the fatal bullet struck him in the heads they described as the kill shots officers were trying to arrest brown on drug related charges but his family says he represented no threat to them as he tried to get away yesterday. what. those 3 gunshots and all that well enough that was enough. it's obvious you just want to get away. and they can shoot him in the back. to j. wyndal gordon who's a baltimore maryland based trial attorney who's joining us via skype thanks for your time with with us on al-jazeera so we saw the family in the clip just

a moment ago and they were expecting to be shown the full body cam video on monday but the lawyers said that this was delayed by several hours reportedly the sheriff's office tried to redact parts of it then the family was only only shown 20 seconds why do you think that is. obviously they're trying to cover something up i mean their conduct based upon what has happened in the attention that they receive has been very unprofessional it's been very dishonest and quite frankly just reeks of something very sinister and that i'm looking forward to hearing and seeing what it is that was so. damaging that they refuse to show it but when you lead someone to believe that they're actually going to see the body worn camera footage and there's all this build up in this already anticipating this anxiety families are grieving and they muster enough courage to see this video at this one

time and then you all of a sudden you take it away from him by only showing them 20 seconds that's that's not a good thing long a lot of days when police can can do that engage in that type of activity so there's going to be a blow out from this and i would say that those attorneys gave a master class or how to take over the narrative and put the case in in a in a format and in a position that suits their their their advantage the there is no well with their right but here's the thing a county sheriff says that he does support the release of the body confidence but also said that the encounter took less than 30 seconds and i'm quoting here a body cameras are shaky and sometimes hard to decipher they only tell part of the story who do you think that the body count is actually protected the police officer the public or or what is it. i think that body cams provide witness testimony yeah they're shaking because they're on people's bodies that's why you have multiple body cams out there because there were multiple apps as out there but

you could still discern what's taken place in the camera you'll be able to see exactly what's going on unless they've been tampered with and the longer they wait the more someone is going to suspect that they've done something to compromise the integrity of that footage the bottom line is they need to disclose their footage right now because right now elizabeth city they're looking very incompetent at this time and they really need to get it together they do need a court order however to disclose that footage do you think that that court order is going to be issued i mean that is by law in the states yeah i mean all the just needs to see is the paperwork i mean the whole world is watching so without any undue delay any reasonable judge will sign off on the paperwork it's a very important case now and now that we've heard that the that mr brown was shot in the back of a hit is extremely important and the public has

a right to know what do you make of the fact that the the f.b.i. has now said that it's opened a civil rights investigation into the shooting i like merrick garland is doing with his justice department since his appointment by president joe biden i like the fact that they're taking the initiative to get involved in these types of cases so when you do have these little hamlets in north carolina or wherever they may be who think they can continue to do things the old way you have the justice department come in and saying you know what you can go ahead and do what you're doing but we're coming and we got next and when we have next we're going to go with the gusto so they can either do it right the 1st time or let the justice department get in and they're definitely going to do it right this is a this is a brand new justice department and then that plan ok j. wyndal gordon thanks so much for speaking to us from maryland. thank you for having me now the united states is ordering its non-essential embassy staff out of

are due to hold their 1st elections in 15 years next month but al-jazeera has learned that president mahmoud abbas will delay the long awaited votes citing is really restrictions in the occupied east jerusalem that's despite israel saying it's not interfering with the ballots and as harry false reports candidates have been struggling to counter skepticism from voters in occupied east jerusalem this is defined as palestinian political activity the kind that can result in a rift and in recent days has put on this day there are new israeli security forces to be seen new crowd either just 10 prospective candidates for the palestinian legislative council trying to infuse a population that hasn't voted for 15 years and doesn't expect to now it's. to convince them and to be with them to bring in their to a new hole for a new is that this. isn't. a hoax yes i hope so.

but if residents of occupied east jerusalem have a shared such hope it's been fast evaporating what elections. what elections are you talking about when you were excited about the respect to take. because i know that is that there is an unknown yeah i can expect that it. to tell you the truth i'm in a paradox between going to elections as a palestinian to show that i'm not. with a purpose in a state or with my people to go to the election of that i believe that it's a it's a mess it's a game for the on the political level that they may cancel it in 2006 elections did take place in occupied east jerusalem as in gaza and the west bank is right allowing the voting under last minute u.s. pressure now the palestinian authority has reportedly given israel a deadline of thursday to answer its demand for a similar guarantee an israeli official told us that so far israel has given no

response and. without to roussel and without the participation of our people in the city of jerusalem without the ability to campaign as in other areas in the occupied palestinian territories there will be no elections al-jazeera understands that the palestinian president mahmoud abbas has already decided to postpone the polls with the official announcement to come at a factional meeting on thursday one thing we heard again and again on the streets of east jerusalem was that if the palestinian authority wanted to hold an election it shouldn't allow an israeli know let alone the sheer lack of an israeli response be the reason not to do so the suspicion being expressed is that the real reason is internal and political the palestinian are could a newspaper reports of the decision to postpone followed intense pressure from the united states and arab countries concerned about the consequences of a strong result for the armed group hamas which controls gaza rather than a democratic renewal most now
