cabinet, a theme right, a very prolific and influential member of bars. johnson's cabinet, mat hancock, of course, instrumental in setting government policy, government rules on the code of ours pandemic. and in broadcasting to the nation now finds himself in breach of those very rules. and you might think that a person in his position photographed on or showed on cctv and a picture in an inappropriate embrace within an aide within his own department at a time when that sort of place physical contact was expressly band as a matter of public health might have committed perhaps a stackable offense or a resigning offense, but he'd be wrong. he isn't going mad. hancock, instead, as you said, issuing a statement apologizing, saying a terribly sorry for letting people down so that he remains focused on his job. tap, tackling the pandemic. now, bars, johnson has accepted that and said it's the end of the matter. it may not, in fact be the end of the matter. we'll have to see there's a wide, a context here. of course,

a questions will undoubtedly continue to be asked about the hiring practices that allowed this person the aid into the ministry of health gina to call gina color. dangelo is her name. she was hired last march as an aide and then promoted to a non executive director at the time they were scrutiny of it. it was clear they were friends, they met each other at oxford university, although the department says now that all appropriate procedures were followed wider than that. in the last few weeks, mister hancock was the subject of rather damming testimony. when bars, johnson's former senior adviser doubt dominic coming, said he should have been 515 to 20 different times during the pandemic. for a whole string of alleged failings, there has been scrutiny about health care contracts handed out under his watch inappropriately. some say to acquaintances, to friends on one occasion, even family members, all the health secretary and just a few days ago, a watch that message was revealed sent last year by boris johnson, the prime minister describing hancock in his department as quite hopeless. but all

of that together, and it's not surprising that hopelessly untenable is the way the opposition describes currently met hancock's position during the hall there with all the nations for us from london. thank you so much, jenna. or meanwhile, more than half a 1000000 people in a straight is the biggest city, have been put again under locked down. sidney is now bouncing an outbreak of the highly infectious delta various of covered 19 how the visuals have told residents and where it is. and for central suburbs to stay home for a week, there are now 65 cases and the so called a bondai cluster that flared up last week, restrictions across the states from south wales have now been extended until next month. or indonesian health authorities a scrambling to expand hospital capacity there after daily infections. his new high, more than 20000. the number of death is also rising. that with a record $143.00 fatalities reported on tuesday. 3 hospitals in the capital jakarta,

and also being converted to exclusively treat corona virus. patients around supreme neither ali has any harmony, has not received a dose of the country's 1st locally developed curve at 19 vaccine. how many called the development a point of national pride trials of curvy iran barracka began in december. supreme nita has outdoor the use of us and british made vaccines. 83000 people have now died from curve in 1900 in iran. study has found that a blood test to detect more than 50 types of cancer is accurate enough to be used by doctors. it was developed by the u. s. company grail and look specifically for chemicals that leak from tumors into the bloodstream. it can identify counselors that are difficult to diagnose and the early stages like head and neck, ovarian and pancreatic cancer, scientists found the test correctly detected cancer and 51.5 percent of cases. often before any other signs or symptoms appeared,

they say finding counts as early as one of the strongest ways of beating the disease and say this test could have a profound impact. well, let's now speak to dr. eric kline. he's the chairman of the gates mon, you, logical and kidney institute at the cleveland clinic and also a fast offer on this with that. she joins us now from cleveland in our hire doctor, congratulations. hugely exciting news. i see this still needs to be tested and actual screening trials before being rolled out, but could be potentially see this becoming a part of our regular checkup. i believe that we can this is a whole new way of screening for cancer. currently we screen for individual cancers like prostate breast, colon cancer. this would allow screening for multiple cancers in a single drop by my understanding this is so free dna testing, right? so non invasive, which is already being used for other purposes as well. and i know it can be quite expensive. can you give us a sense of the cost of a rollout him whether it would then be available to patients in poor countries

potentially well, currently i understand the grill has made it available just in the united states for an out of pocket cost of $949.00, but eventually i could see it being used worldwide. that still sounds like a pretty, pretty high number. is there a plan then to try and make it more mainstream to potentially subsidize something that could be useful for so many people around the world. i, you know, there are a number of companies in this space and there is a consortium that will. ready be addressing affordability, and access, and so forth. so stay tuned for that. ok, doctor, i was taking a look at the numbers and as i was saying, this test identifies when cancer was present and 51.5 percent of cases and then only wrongly detected cancer in 0.5 percent of cases. so in practice then, does that mean testing negative doesn't necessarily mean you don't have cancer, but testing positive. does that give you been a good heads up?

that's correct. this test will not find every cancer. on the other hand, the value here is that it will find a lot of cancer is for which we have no screen currently. so it will find a lot of cancer that we don't find now. right, can you talk us through a little bit of what that means? i understand that it's really critical that this test actually means you can actually find it at an earlier stage, potentially. yes, potentially. so for the common cancer that you mentioned had neck, pancreatic ovarian. those are cancer is that generally presented advanced stages when patients are symptomatic and the burden of cures high, the amount of treatment needed to tie and the courage not very good. so if you walk across the entire cancer spectrum, it's true for virtually ever cancer. the sooner you detect, if you're early or you detect it, the easier it is to cure the more likely it is to be curable. so this test will detect many more cancers than are currently detected. now at earlier stages, and the hope is that that will translate into better survival of costs. as you were

saying earlier, this is cell free dna testing for our viewers who are familiar with what that means . can you explain a little bit of how that was? sure, dna is the genetic background of all ourselves, normal and cancer cells. when cancer cells die, they should their d, n a into the bloodstream. and cancer dna looks different than normal cell dna does. and furthermore, cancer dna from a liver cancer looks different from a kidney cancer. so this test which uses the same technology that was used to sequence the human genome callbacks generation sequencing can detect not only the presence of a cancer signal, but it can with high accuracy, almost 90 percent accuracy predict which oregon system cancer started from. so that will also be very useful in expediting diagnoses. absolutely. dr. eric climb the, the 1st author on this very exciting research. congratulations again dr. and thank you for joining us here on out of there. thank you. thank you. scientists and

israel say they've made a discovery that could challenge established evolutionary history. they found burns from what they're describing as a new type of human or such as from tel aviv university, say the scull, and the lower jewel could be around 130000 years old. national rom, la homer, named after the place where the buttons were found, may have lived a long hide hungry sapiens for more than a 100000 years. it's believed they had a large or large teeth and no chin. and they have also been ancestors of the neanderthal. i spoke to him may, she's a physical anthropologist in the department of anatomy of the fact the faculty of medicine of televi university was also part of the team who made that really exciting discovery. and she explains the significance when we have started this research, we were very surprised at what we have in our hand. and we knew from previous findings, other folks that were found in, in our region that since 200000 years ago,

the only hope that lived in this region was homeless up in like us. so we were quite sure that this is what we, we will found it fine. and what we found out is that the combination, the unique combination of straight that we have does not fit any other group that we already knew from the region. and even more. it is very similar to fulfill that were found in these ro, dated much earlier to $400.00 south and years ago as well to those from europe, which are referred to prina under towels. and then we understood that we have here and our cake group that lived for hundreds of thousands of years in this region. and it must probably contribute is their contribution to later in the, under the population that lived in europe. so it means that the, this,

the source population of the european and toes is actually from bill event, rather than from europe. all colleges and historians are divided about new concrete pathways for taurus on one of the world's most important monuments. some say they would devastate to the acropolis angry. but as john, wrapping his reports now from athens, the work actually aims to restore what it originally looked like. the acropolis in athens receives thousands of visitors a day. they climb cobblestone puffs built in the 1950s to reach the open space at the top. and here they are now met with a broad pathway that takes them to the temple of athena, known as the parthenon. this pathway of poured concrete was laid down in the past few months and it has outraged many seasons visitors who say its breadth and the material it's made of disrespect besides. but those we spoke to liked it. but i thought that what they do have was sort of it didn't feel like it wasn't in

place, but it didn't fit in. you didn't really know it as like an ice or anything like that. the critics suspect the new perfectly aims to further commercialize the site by catering to a big increase in the number of tourists from cruise ships. my knowledge, curtis is in charge of restoration work at the acropolis. he says he's merely restoring the path to what it used to be in the medallion by nothing down and been during the great part of the night festival, 10000 athenians a day. we're able to enter through this gateway. that's what it was designed for. we simply restore it to, to inertia when i took over the restoration, marcia, i realize this was something that couldn't go on. it wasn't the number of visitors who had access that concerned me. mainly under the day they deserve to see what was here, rather than some idea restore his head in the 1950s. that's se in the concrete pathway corresponds to the width of the original entrance to the acropolis for the past 20 years entering and departing visitors have been confined to narrow wooden walkway,

which uses only one of 5 ancient doorways. but in classical antiquity all fine for use similar tenuously and the ultimate plan is to restore access through all of them. grooved stones left exposed, serve as clear evidence. this was the original width and the concrete is easily removed because it sits on plastic sheeting that protects the bedrock. perhaps, most importantly, the new pathways a part of the plan to enable people with disabilities to access the site. and the new elevator now makes this possible use numbers from the em as ever. we've been talking about disabled access to the acropolis since the 2004 will mpeg. so now we can say that any disabled person in the world who wants to visit the acropolis can now do so. this broadening of access is still a work in progress. once the gateway is restored, a grand staircase will be 2. it was only half built before

a war stopped work 25 centuries ago. only then says the man in charge of the project will people understand the acropolis as it was designed by its original architect. jumps up las al jazeera athens while still ahead here on al jazeera, they enter the payoff series with the west wreck or the find out where this and a chelsea is headed next for its coming up shortly. ah, ah news . news. news.

news with me. ah. ah ah, it's time to sport and his bar. southsea,

thank you so much here go. i have advanced the quarter finals of the copa america mattress united edison kalani was on target for them as they beat bolivia to know foul malik reports a year ago. i can now look for or to the knockout rounds of the copper america. but after picking up just one point from the 1st to game, there was still some way off there best as they faced, bolivia enquire, but luckily for them, the bolivians made things a little easier by scoring a 1st tunnel phone go. oh yeah. lewis warren tried to double the advantage off the break. his f, however, was maybe a bit too ambitious. his strike on that it didn't think of any bed much better though. the manchester united done nothing from close range to the la to nil when

the result leave your life force in, grew paid if they end up finishing their they'll face brazil in the last state. massive improvements will be needed, however, to win a match up like that. paraguay have also booked this vote in the quarter final. they back to, to new when over chilly, who themselves are already through? on the grounds, the mood you got power going to the gold and they sealed the victory after winning a 2nd half penalty with new causal miguel armor on converting with ease. the result means this still with a chance of topping group a. so here malik algeria, palestine and book there spotted this. here's fee for era cup in cap har. basic here to 51 went over to face, often a qualifying playoff. 16 teams will take part in the fee for air pap, which kicks off this november a tournament is being used as a test event for next year's world cup. and counts are and they only clippers

a bounce back in there and be a western conference plan on series against the phoenix suns. fall, george scored $27.00 points to lead the clippers to $169.00 to win and game 3. the result in phoenix is record of play off winning streak of 9 games and but they still leave the series 2 games to one in 4 is on saturday. and that way it seems better that you don't know what the results are going to be, but i love our approach. i love the way we come out because if i could change our ways to get it done, like when fortune estimating the sparse tennis down the raining women's champion, smoke, how of his pulled at wimbledon due to injury. the 29 year old tore her calf bottle and may wish for her to miss the french open. the remaining world number 31 the tournaments when it was last held in 2019 olive joins world number 2, naomi osaka, who also withdrew from wilmington earlier. this month due to mental health issues.

international standard. even the trucks been modified to meet the w. c regulations, but after this 18 stages, over 3 days of rough roads through bush forest in savannah, 7 times well champion, sebastian air has some of the fastest time so far it is a favorite to win driving between the stages draws a crowd to the local teams used to dominate the podiums. now it's hard for them to keep up with world class technology and budget. but with more than a 100000000 people expected to watch, it certainly puts kenya back on the world rally stage. malcolm web al jazeera, my ruby, kenya, and the material canadians are back in the stanley cup finals for the 1st time

starting in 2024. victoria getting bureau port ah, after a successful test flight last week, the company behind space ship net, jude has sold more than 200 tickets for flights and it's space balloon. if all goes to plan the journey starting in 2024 will involve a 2 hour cent. above 99 percent of the atmosphere. passengers will spend 2 hours on the very edge of space before the balloon makes is to send to the ocean. i think you probably think about the pitches of rocket launching. that's not how i would describe that right there. hi geez. this is completely the officer. so you're going to spend about 12 miles and now you're going to space at the speed of cycling that allows the vehicle to be very smooth and gentle. and the capital itself is very roomy. initiative that left on face perspective is in competition with companies

including virgin galactic switch brenson and space ex l. musk for the space tourism market. but it says it's offering something differently. virgin galactic charges passengers up to a quarter $1000000.00 for 6 minutes of weightlessness. space perspective says it's trips cost half that price and last 6 hours. but without the 0 gravity experience, it says there's enough demand for every one and predicts a booming industry in the years ahead. we get our study where a walner now a marketing company, market research company and they live on the market for a kind of like what we're doing is on the order of 250000000 callan budget and have done their own studies for this kind of like their thing, 500000000000, the 700000000, whatever the right number is, the market is huge. and if you can afford the sky high prices, it promises to be

a trip. it's out of this world, victoria gay to be al jazeera, beautiful. here i'm not set for this news out, but don't go away. i'll be back in just a moment with you. a be part of the debate is self defeating and posing in the us or in the u. k. because it will just come back again when no topic is off the table. what we wanted to talk about were these learn white men talking loud and clear. dream where a global audience become a global community, jumping to the comment section, and part of the discussion there are, like i said, the metric efforts to silence fell opinions on the online, based on al jazeera in 2020 new york city was the global at the center of death and in this from the corona virus. like many cities, the panoramic has altered, the metropolis is very fabric. hundreds of thousands of floods,
