4:02 pm
modi says the government is looking at whether nitrogen plants can produce oxygen instead one coded 19 treatment center in new delhi has started producing its own oxygen enough for 20 patients at a time i believe. there is a shortage of oxygen in delhi and when we are completely dependent on supply chains in cylinders then these problems are bound to our right it is a great idea to overcome that problem we have created an oxygen generation plant here in simple words it is a kind of oxygen concentrator only with greater capacity we can give oxygen to about 18 to 20 patients at any given time with its help. well more help is arriving from overseas cattle has sent 300 tonnes of oxygen canisters personal protection equipment other supplies india's vaccination drive is in full gear the queues along with those is not always arriving on time and it's a purana was one vaccination center in new delhi. we are in one of delhi 76
4:03 pm
public schools which are being used as vaccination centers i am getting my vaccine after trying for days to make an appointment all adults everyone over the age of 18 was eligible for a vaccine from saturday but delhi like most other states doesn't have enough i have had to wait for more than 3 hours in a line like hundreds of other people to get this dose and dia is seeing children it is not just of vaccines but of life saving equipment of oxygen international aid is continuing to arrive the indian air force is using is airlifting cryogenic oxygen tank is from germany delivering it around the country but people are still dying because of the shortages the southern state of karnataka is the latest place where 24 car than 1000 and other patients died after their oxygen ran out the shortages the pressure on the health care system is why india supreme court
4:04 pm
is asking the government to consider imposing a nationwide lockdown but not before making the arrangements for hundreds of millions of daily wage earners people who have to work every single day to survive so that it won't. impact them like the nationwide lockdown that the government imposed last year. well doctor of in the soyuz chairman and chief surgeon the liver transplant is to institute a lead investigator in medications to treat current 1000 patients and he hopes india's dire situation will be under control in the next week or so. i think to an extent the scale wasn't anticipated and wasn't talked. in december or january that b. would have such a massive 2nd. but example of my hospital which is a 1000 beds caught in every care hospital in going down daily we normally use about
4:05 pm
3 to 3.5 metric tons of oxygen every day they are now needing to use about 11 metric and somehow we are managing to get in about 6 to 7 metric tons every day so we are still falling short by about 4 or 5 and that's means we have to cut down the use of oxygen within the hospital we have to reduce the number of oxygen beds that can be available for call of patients so it is a very difficult situation how long that will take is the 1000000 dollar question i wish i knew the answer but we certainly hope it's going to happen in the next week or 10 days certainly non-code care is suffering the elective going to be cases among the noncombatant diseases are being postponed these people are not being admitted however we are carrying on with life saving liver transplants we are just not doing maybe 20 or 30 percent of them which don't need immediate surgery but the rest of the liver transplant us and carry on but this is that the country's premier hospital may not be the case everywhere. now the world health organization is
4:06 pm
considering whether it can approve chinese made vaccines for current 19 emergency use the decision to authorize or reject sign of farm and sign of actions will have an impact on global supply which has slowed because of shortages chinese companies are facing intense scrutiny for not releasing detailed data on their vaccines efficacy china has distributed 100000000 doses of sign of ag and signed a farm to 67 countries most of them in asia and africa let's talk now again to simon clarke head of division of biomedical sciences and biomedical engineering at the university of reading he joins us on skype from oxford simon great to talk to you again as far as the w h o's understand why now. well i guess it's because there is a very large demand for vaccines right around the world desperation so really the world health organization is trying to clear any barriers to use as quickly as it can of course some countries are many times any time tree is able to authorize
4:07 pm
the vaccine or it's only that after a lot of research but there were questions over the chinese vaccines when it came to efficacy no. yes there were and there has been a lot discussion with its use particularly in south america. just because it's perhaps not as effective as other vaccines doesn't mean it's completely ineffective and if we need a vaccine and we don't have. great access to all of them we would like then something is better than nothing how do we know or do we know that the 2 chinese bank scenes how they are behaving in the countries that they've been taken to. well in south america i think it was chile there was coverage free from some chinese people but the vaccine wasn't terribly effective so it is it is difficult to tell because you have to be able to expose the if you know our history or to to or not
4:08 pm
have any infection challenge we have to see how much the vaccine holds back so it's still early days but the vaccines trying to. go look be as effective as say your or united states we're now seeing a situation or a scenario playing out around the globe literally simon where certain countries they seem to be on the precipice of sending vaccines to india because of the dire situation going on in india and also i guess in pakistan too does that mean that we might be in a situation where say rich vaccines successful countries start sending their vaccines to countries that are still suffering but then they have to accept using sign of farm or sign of back because they maybe get a 2nd or 3rd or even a 4th wave because clearly 1000 is not about to completely go away no it's not and there is a possibility and it's really
4:09 pm
a political decision as to whether or not they those countries except that they will have to explain to their populations why they done it and expose those populations to throw the rounds of infection so it's a tricky one simon since we've got year talking to us on the news in the last hour or so we're learning that the e.u. drug regulator is starting a process to evaluate pfizer and the bio on tech. to be given to 12 to 15 year olds what's the logic and how would that work. but the logic is that teenagers are. coming down to 16 so they're trying to fill in that gap 1215. regulator approvals so they can stop them passing it on they used children they are children of that age are extremely unlikely to get sick but for its own merits there's every chance they could act as spreads and that's why schools get used so if we can stop the ok we must leave it there simon taught in the u.k.
4:10 pm
could still chance of a simon thank you very much. latin america is struggling with a high demand for coverage 19 banks seems to only a small number of people have received them in argentina recorded cases of now past 3000000 with few other options to respond the president is reimposing restrictions and curfews as daniel swine flu now reports from point a virus. the numbers keep rising argentina like the rest of latin america is suffering a 2nd wave of covered nineteen's infections and deaths the government has imposed a further 3 weeks of new tougher lockdown restrictions a nighttime curfew and schools returning to online classes here thora to say their main aim is to relieve the strain on hospitals or you don't say that you're not normal nor today the house system can cope with another patient not one more we've reached our limit the number of contaminated patients even if it doesn't go up has reached its breaking point it's overflowing we can keep extending measures every 15
4:11 pm
days or 2 more years but what we've got to do is test and vaccinate. the arrival of vaccines has been slow to sporadic the argentinian government says it's doing all it can to find new supplies but so far any a small percentage of people have had both jabs the elderly and those with already serious health conditions in the meantime the only other option is to keep asking these people to be patient and cooperate. people need to be more aware and realise that our hospitals are full that the health workers are exhausted and we only to understand what we as citizens need to do to fight this. there have been demonstrations against the government measures the argentine economy already facing severe difficulties before the pandemic has been hit hard and is it the mustn't get out we're trapped in a situation which we understand is for our own good but we've got no help from
4:12 pm
anyone to help us fight through the. the constant requests to pack up early stay indoors keep your distance have become for many an annoying drood in the background even though they understand that it could be a matter of life or death 3000000 infections is a grim statistic in a horror story that also includes growing unemployment homelessness some poverty figures that will only keep rising until the coronavirus is brought on the role. primarily to 01 of cyrus. one of mean mars rebel groups the kitchen independence army says it shot down a military helicopter near the town of mobile fighting between the army and ethnic armed groups has intensified since the military seized power in february scott hytner is monitoring the story from neighboring thailand and has more on the rebel groups claims. it's from the kitchen independence army and they're one of the largest most powerful ethnic armed organizations inside myanmar and they have
4:13 pm
claimed that they shot down this helicopter they're saying it was a most likely a shoulder launched guided missile that brought down this helicopter they're claiming we haven't heard anything from the tatmadaw that's the official name for the military in myanmar this is part of this escalation we've seen of fighting between armed ethnic organizations that really occupy the borderlands or are surround the center parts of myanmar there are many different groups but the kitchin independence army is one that has really kind of been engaged in heavier battles more frequent battles with the army since the coup on february 1st so this is i guess kind of the latest round if you will they claim pretty soon after i would say maybe 2 or 3 hours after they said they brought down this helicopter which was 10 am this morning that they did in fact bring it down this again they say is retaliation for air strikes that happened overnight sunday into monday today and then also on monday morning they said they were tabulated because the
4:14 pm
helicopter involved was attacking position their position but also they said earlier in the day there were fighter aircraft doing the same. last most ill to come for you here on the news hour including these stories calls for a ceasefire to hold the kirghiz order as those who fled the fighting start returning home. we'll hear from the investigative journalist maria ressa who's won a major international award for her work. and in sports for a decade long waits to see football fans are finally able to celebrates the title victory. turkey's foreign minister is leading a high level delegation to libya for talks with the unity government the defense minister and intelligence chief are also going along turkey has been deeply involved in libya it back to the un recognized government of national accord against the warlord. my trainer is live for us in tripoli nic what is the turkish
4:15 pm
delegation trying to achieve there. well i think this trip is they're trying to achieve what they what they invested in beef with the previous government now for remember the turkish government and the libyan government the previous government signed a maritime security agreement now the maritime agreement expanded both of their. territory in the mediterranean the security agreement consisted of training programs other currently is turkish troops on the ground but the turkish support and was very significant in pushing back more logically for a half 2 years military campaign after launched a military campaign in april 2019 and the turkish support sort of balanced the tower on the ground and and it is believed to have helped lead to this cease fire
4:16 pm
those currently ongoing in this political this political deal that brought in this new interim unity government so i think it signifies a. a lot it signifies how much turkey invested in libya and also last month the interim prime minister out to meet the beta was in church he signed a couple of m o u's with the turkish government and turkish companies including in developing the . electricity services and also in development and construction services so i think the turks have a lot invested in libya they want to grow their influence here and so this part this this visit is sort of to grow is sort of to make sure that that happens thanks very much money train to the reporting live from tripoli prosecutors in france say there are no grounds to pursue legal action against the country over the rwanda
4:17 pm
genocide of the rwandan government published a report last month saying france was aware genocide was being prepared ahead of the massacres in 1994 for more on this line to paris and my colleague natasha bucklin attention was the back story to this. well in 2005 a number of human rights groups here in france including an organization that represents the community here filed a legal case against a number of. unnamed members of the french forces who were serving in rwanda at the time of the genocide in 1904 under a u.n. mandate now in this legal action and the human rights groups accused the french forces of complicity in the genocide of crimes against humanity because they said that those french forces had basically failed to protect thousands of tutsis who had been hiding who had fled to the hills around the basara village in the west of
4:18 pm
the country in fact this legal action actually said french forces of bands in the area for 3 days effectively allowing hutu led militia to come into the area and massacre thousands of people now what the paris prosecutor though has said is that there isn't enough evidence in his opinion to continue with this case now it may still be taken up by the investigating magistrate but it does seem that that is unlikely in the case is effectively dropped how significant is it that the prosecutor stop the case now. well the decision really comes at a very significant and sensitive time for relations between kigali and paris they've been strained for decades over these recurring questions over what exactly was for answers role in 1994 accusations that the president francois mitterrand at the time a supported the hutu governments are questions over whether or not france could
4:19 pm
have done more to stop the violence well 2 very important reports of come out this year one from kigali one from paris and both of those report into france's role of the time say france wasn't complicit in the genocide persone bears a lot of responsibility for the violence bears a lot of responsibility for turning a blind eye to what was happening they could have done more to protect the many people the thousands hundreds of thousands of people who were killed and now those 2 reports sony are a step in what is being seen as a rapprochement or a diplomatic rapport from or between president mark rohr and president gar may in rwanda between the 2 countries that is something the macro has made a real priority of his presidency he wants to see relations improve between rwanda and france and he is in fact expected to visit kakali later in the end that would be very significant indeed for
4:20 pm
a french president of this time natasha thank you very much natasha in paris. staying in europe through british unison marking 100 years since the creation of northern ireland for nationalists though there is nothing to celebrate they want the entire island of ireland unified under one irish lag to simmons' reports from belfast. the drumbeats of the flute mark little island 100 years of existence and the marches in defiance of code that regulations celebrator into a street away though you can see the underlying mood isn't happy when. these protestants feel like costs there's a lot of people in the hollow of businesses they're not they're not criminals or they're made i'd be. frost's apostate as well as a cultural about that i think if that was even a threat of irish unity that it will be focused on on the street and maybe a lot more. teens views are i code by fellow band members marching all over
4:21 pm
this vast units housing estates on the outskirts of. the police trying to get them to disperse. but they march on under surveillance from above this isn't code it's a mock up 100 years since the birth of them all and it's aimed at the political class is hope the protestant church far perhaps. it's a call for a return to the sort of hardline thinking of the late reverend ian paisley a firebrand preacher who founded the democratic unionist party that. he had given and year after year on the want to keep on government and. the need the need there needs to be any structure rappers out in the working class people and tend to step down that's one of the reasons for the ousting of alim foster 1st minister and do you prefer leader she may be replaced by evangelist edwin poots sitting beside her
4:22 pm
here he's a minister who's blamed catholics for spreading kovi. in west belfast republicans have a resentment to the 100 years celebration after the partition of holland and thousands of deaths on both sides that ensued and so more instability ahead on mcbride thinks he lost his wife is a liar a bumbling lady 28 years ago and has campaigned for unity and i would just. just encourage him just to paint. our politicians to start to get around the table start to govern this place with us with with a sense of just wanting to improve life for everybody not just their own particular trade or their own particular organization or group or community where they're coming from you have to make it better for everyone as long as people like dean feel alienated and others feel empowered the risk of violence still hangs there
4:23 pm
good northern ireland. and andrew joins us live from the studio in belfast i mean andrew just looking at your reporting out of belfast and dublin all the big issues that have been circulating for generations now this still there there's still red hot issues. they certainly are peter it has to be said that northern ireland has enjoyed 23 years of peace remarkable effort into that good friday agreement and by by and large it's held together fragile at times but northern ireland was born of conflict and what we're seeing now is effectively a power vacuum and that sort of thing leads to tension and we're seeing as you pointed out the protestants themselves the loyalists unionists much the same thing they're intertwined all feeling pretty isolated now that's for several reasons warm
4:24 pm
the fact that irish unity is back on the agenda now there is an important part to this because demographics it's very likely that a census carried out this year when the results come out next year will show a majority of catholics protestants will lose their majority that's really a given that that will happen the only question is when and that doesn't necessarily mean that there would be a vote in favor of irish unity but the clock is ticking on it and sooner or later 510 years perhaps some say that's likely to happen so that's worrying people furthermore breck's it that issue is huge right now right across northern ireland in the sense that that sea border that trade border between the u.k. and the european union right down the irish sea not just the disruption is bothering people it's the symbolism it's the fact that protestants feel that their
4:25 pm
britishness is being taken away so also the referendum in 2016 when northern ireland actually voted in favor of staying within the european union yet against their will they were taken out and their representative party the majority is the democratic unionist party the d u p and they according to many people made a mistake in backing boris johnson dermod ferrets or an irish historian picks up from their. since the brazen referendum in 2016 the do you pay in particular have put all of their political eggs in the basket of bars johnson's strategically that was very unwise it was a very foolish thing to do and they have ended up running out of political road and that is a crisis for unionism and it's clear that a different kind of unionism is going to be necessary as northern are marxist 100th
4:26 pm
anniversary if it wants to continue with its political creed and its ideological. determination to remain a part of the united kingdom it is going to have to figure out how to make that case in a very different way. yeah that's a really interesting point how can the d u p pick up its it's already lost its its leader after a coup against her and now it's trying to move more in a popular direction that's going to be hard line addressing the sort of people you saw in my report earlier now what will happen well several things could happen shin fein which is gaining ground all the time might scupper the whole thing and the whole dire the whole situation of of power sharing and devolution could go out of the window for a while or there could be an election sooner rather than later there are elections
4:27 pm
june next year and the do you piers losing ground machine phone stand to win that and also middle ground could put pressure on do you people as people start taking away moving away from the do you peon going towards the middle part is that will mean again fortune fame that could be snap elections because of all this so many variables and that leads to insecurity one final thing though out of all of this a opinion poll which puts 33 percent of northern ireland people voters age in favor of irish unity and 44 percent against it wouldn't take much for that figure for unity to rise specially in view of the demography but the situation among these people is also a question of who is in the middle and who are the people in the middle one in 5 people living in northern ireland don't see themselves as nationalists they don't
4:28 pm
see themselves as eunice they don't see their religion really matters they just want. decent future a safe future now about one in 5 could grow and grow will they be able to be in the european union will they want to be in brics it run britain that's a key issue and that growth of middle ground is a very important thing 100 years on and drew thank you very much andrew symonds there reporting live for the news out of belfast. time for your world weather with everton however seen some nasty storms across the deep south of the u.s. once again some lively showers with some tornadoes wrapped in here particularly into mississippi that's going to continue driving its way further east with the winds continuing to push him from a southerly direction here so still some warmth there around the eastern seaboard they see getting up to all humid 30 degrees celsius more showers more heavy rain more lively storms possibly more tornadoes embedded into those storms driving

4:39 pm
do is that the regime could offer any solutions to those challenges does the drive for that have to come from nigeria given the relationship between the 2 countries going back generations well you know the. did there are many of wary that if we look. you will air. the story. among the poorest people those who have been actually left out by chance for the. who actually took their provide the wrong comes fired of of factions within member of. the discussion is. as well as with all of their nature is not on the good i live. but it takes he says well
4:40 pm
finding solutions to all of the population because these book edition. did not get any seeing what they have. been the way that they go and there are some of the last 10 years could have become a much more dangerous situation and spread to other countries across the so whole region. well the question is again though. today the 'd transitional military considine certainly believed to be inside china he may be seen as the solution by france so us. sane and regimes but certainly not a majority would soon be checked and population so the question is whether these. national and there are some flesh on that credit in dead kids we could move into a new situation and certainly get some more of what seems to be the most lately
4:41 pm
scenario is. the transitionary terry concentrate to achieve that we've done by where it was the deed was the same reaction this event means and in this case yes you have to be extremely anxious about let me come next because the army would speak in charge the change in army won't be a very. alien countries of course. as well as all the food in the western sahara will become much stronger we associate book overarm primarily with nigeria but as a reaction to what's going on there is there a chance here of a book or her arm starts crossing regularly and often borders because some of those borders in that region of very very porous but presumably nobody in the sahara region wants book or her arm to get a more damaging up
4:42 pm
a deeper footprint if you will across neighboring countries outside of nigeria. it's a weird the up in the inmate chair we are a number of skirmishes seen in charge on the course because of the time not a situation in china. we would expect of a child to now me and not to be. responding as before the same cushions dukie issue again he said he's maybe. you know. me i said reset as well what he sees we over the years on. because a book or 2 groups we have been in western sahara. you know i mean different kind of grievances some kid he really took to the jihad the agenda and so on and so that's what the here must be in the west and
4:43 pm
