bob way, in her words, she is always told, from the perspective of the great man, whether it's even moving and the robot mcguffey. my responsibility is to tell, is involved with the story in a way that it hasn't really been told before the ordinary, everyday life or the people i'm writing about patina. got out of darkness, mice and bob way on algebra. me a warning against current, a virus complacency and weld health organization experts that come through the opening up way too quickly. you've made a very premature run, rush back to full normality and i think we're going to pay a price for them. but you guys for minutes as the people must learn to nip with the

virus is to as discarding mask and lifting other restriction. ah, my money inside this is out there alive from day. so coming up, increasing concern about the advances made by taliban and vices. enough, got this down off to foreign troops, pull out your peers. prime minister defense launching a ministry campaign in t grey where hundreds of thousands and now enduring a found the world health organization has worn to governments against eas, encoded 19 restrictions too soon. criticizing what i call a premature, rushed back to full normality. several countries in europe are relaxing roles, despite concerns about the highly contagious delta variance. the w. h. o says the

pandemic isn't yet over and further waves of infection could arrive later in the year. of the countries of the month, because we still have nearly 1000000 cases week 1000000 a week in the hook up. it is an over am and the same in europe and europe in region. we've half a 1000000 cases week like this thing has gone away. so i sometimes have this sense that everyone thinks it's all over and we're just getting on. and to an extent, i understand the sentiment. understand why people want to feel that way. but for a lot of the world, unfortunately this thing is only getting started. we just need to be a little more patient. remember last summer where we had everything got good and then everyone kind of relaxed. and then we kind of arrived in september, october and ended up in huge trouble. i think that's where we're going again with a much more transmissible variant this time around. and that's the issue. well,

that warning came on the same day. the u. k. prime minister confirmed most cove at 19 restrictions in england will be lifted in 2 weeks. people won't have to wear face mos in most places or maintain social distance sick. or johnson to admit the move could drive up infections, but says people have to learn to live with the virus. so you guys go reports from london. on monday, a solid start to the day for the prime minister, commemorating the 73rd birthday. if you case national health service, i've been event honoring the organisation and the efforts of its workers during the pandemic. that always took the prime minister's life nearly a year. and a half since cove, it arrived the lock downs and restrictions that was since put in place have become part of daily life. but the time to discuss those protections is close by according to the government. because of the u. k. successful vaccination program, we must be honest with ourselves that if we can't reopen our society in the next

few weeks, when we will be helped by the arrival of summer and by the school holidays, then we must ask ourselves, when will we be able to return to normal, well, the government has said that where mosque would be a question of personal responsibility. the drastic human cost has left some reticent to quit wearing them altogether. for the foreseeable future person, i'm probably going to keep it on because from kind of mind, more about protecting and looking off the others that might be more vulnerable with it. it is good that i put it in the power of the people in a way, but i personally think they should still be on. now if a country braces itself to repulse the last and social distance thing, questions remain over really what's best the sake of public health. and the prime minister himself has been under pressure by members of his own party and the restrictions as quickly as possible. make of the economy. he's prepared to do that

despite a 74 percent rise and infections in the last week alone. the increasing pace numbers have had many of the medical community worried about the outcome of on blocking later this month, especially as hospitalizations have also been rising. we are an experiment in itself of how do we live with high vaccination rate, a new barrier delta, lots of children who are unvaccinated under the age of 18, and case numbers increasing, as well as a significant unlocking. there are lots of things happening right now that make it difficult to attack. so far, children have mostly escaped, the more severe forms of the disease, but they are unvaccinated and more at risk of a new delta variant that is currently dominant. the problem that we have right now is that this government is allowing the virus lose literally those on to the children to do whatever it wants. they're just letting the virus. so this is, this is hurting unity by the by go the other course. the concern is that the u. k.

could become a petri dish and you very and that would potentially be more resistant to the current crop of vaccines. but now the vaccination campaign has been a success, the worry or the progress coming undone while the pandemic is still very much with us. so need i? yeah, go, i'll just, there are london a spring in doctor dennis nash. she's a distinguished professor, happened to me. ology at the 15 of us in new york, he joins a spy skype. money, thanks for joining the program. what do you make of my crimes comments? all countries making a very premature, rushed back to full normality. i agree with, with mike ryan w h o, i do think there are some situations in different places around the world that are opening up prematurely. the really important thing is to ensure that prior to opening up their high enough levels of vaccine coverage so that you can protect as many of the most vulnerable people in a given society as possible. and that,

in my view, makes it really important to say we can, you can tie, opening up to achieving certain levels of vaccine coverage and do it in a phased way or incremental way. so for example, when 40 percent of coverage is achieved with the vaccine workplaces can reopen with certain restrictions. and when 60 percent coverage is achieved, there can be fewer workplace restrictions, or maybe we can begin to move to outdoor sporting events and things like that. so it's really important to tie, opening up to achieving, you know, high levels of coverage in the population and doing that, as opposed to just saying, you know, individuals to get back seed really makes this a challenge. and a problem of, of the collective. it makes everyone in the population think, you know, in order for us to move on, we all need to work together to achieve the high levels of vaccine coverage. so what is high enough? do you think the u. k has met bad threshold of high vaccination rates?

because that is what bars thompson is counting on. well, last they looked, i think the u. k. is gotten to about 50 percent coverage with and thinking about fully covered with 2 doses of vaccine or one dose of a single those back seen. i think that clearly we're seeing a search in cases in the u. k. and that suggest to me it's not enough. and while we haven't yet seen surges and death rates there, we're beginning to see increases in the death rates while they're still very low. they've probably increased 2 or 3 fold over the last few weeks and to me that's something to watch. and i know they've said a deadline of july 19th to to fully reopen a lot can happen in 2 weeks. a lot of people could be vaccinated between now and then i would really like to see rather than set an arbitrary date. you know, forrest johnson to say, if we can achieve, say 70 percent coverage between now and then. then we can begin to think about

opening up. do you think, mr. jones? not the point though, when he says at some point we've got to just live with this virus. i do, i do, we do. we all need to move on. however, it's not something you can just say in a vacuum, need to consider that and balance that against the real risk that it's posed the population where there's low levels of vaccine coverage. and you know, very infectious in transmissible variance, and some of the low levels of vaccine coverage are in vulnerable populations in the u. k. i think they've done a very good job reaching the elderly and other about owner bal populations and, and that is showing now is there they're able to absorb a fairly steep surge in cases without a comment. surge and in depth. and that's very good. but that's not to say that that there couldn't be a surge. and the only way to avert those kinds of surges in depth and

hospitalizations is to get to a high level higher level of coverage than what they are at right now. where you get a lot of transmission happening and that could that could p keep a lot of people at risk. thank you for your time doctor dennis nash speaking to us there from new york. thank you to i've got his daughter who's government is sending reinforcements to the north of the country where taliban fighters for small than a 1000 troops to flee across the border. advance is waiting fears. the military will collapse once foreign forces complete. they withdraw in september. well, the group has been fighting and winning across afghanistan, districts shaded in this map and orange, a govern controlled contest. the districts are in green. the areas in purple are fully on the taliban control. this means taliban fighters may have surrounded population centers, including strategically important cities. the number of districts and who controls

them is the speech of though under chappelle has this report. things are quiet at bagram air base. once the nerve center of america's longest running war, 100000 us troops were here during the course of the past 20 years. the final once leaving quietly on friday, the afghans are in charge now. but the question is, which atkins and for how long? shopkeepers nearby are worried about more than their source of income for the pollution while the thought your issues affect our sales. it's not a problem for us if there are 4 enforces here or if they leave. but the fact that the tele been taking over the district at any moment affix or work now on. if i thought of sales on very good i, most shopkeepers won't invest in these shops because they are worried about the country's future and don't know what will happen. they are also worried that wall will break out. other shops in the southern province of kandahar are closing in families, leaving as the front line approaches. and what is now more clearly

a war between the afghan government and the taliban. taliban fighters are making inroads in kandahar after taking over abandon outposts the fighters share their spoils. elsewhere in couple province, us army vehicles and weapons, which could potentially be used in the fight against the afghan government forces. founded by our capitalizing over that vacuum which has been created by the withdrawal. so that is why we have intensified the, the conflict and are having fast battle field games, particularly in the north of a blindness done. this will. these battlefield gains will definitely strengthen the taliban position in any coming negotiations if that is to happen. and as well as this has thinned, shock waves from the morale perspective within the government, rank and file across the north of us can

a stand government troops of surrender districts without a fight more than $1000.00 fled to neighboring ticket stand on monday that prompted touching president m o molly ross, man to call up 20000 reserved troops to the border with afghan. a stand. it is quite quite remarkable. the collapse that we have seen during june and now into july. beyond, beyond this of their the either the best expectations of the taliban or the worst expectations of the afghan government under the here. and the americans, the tele bonds making gains every day. so where does that leave afghanistan in the post us era and are chappelle elders here? the u. s. embassy in the iraq capital baghdad has shot down a drone nearby heavily fortified green zone is defense system 5 full bus of holly power, bullets as it approached the compound. elliot, nice, 3 rockets hit us base in the west of the country. no casualties are important.

still had on the algebra long ways, the code 900 vaccines in venezuela. why the government says an international sharing scheme is failing a citizen. i'm putting the brakes on the popular ride hailing up questions surrounded by china. saw the regulator ah hello, we're hanging onto the heat across western canada or into the pacific northwest of the us. not quite as hot as it has been recently on police to say, but it is still pretty warm nevertheless. but the main weather concern over the next day will be some very wet weather, just around the northern plains. and of course, that very heavy rain that we have down towards the south and east they live the showers continue, rod across the gulf coast. much of the deep south seeing some very heavy right and

of course, elsa will make his presence felt as we go on for tuesday, wednesday on into thursday for tuesday, some heavy rain that just around the plains towards the midwest. thinking a little further south was, as we go on through wednesday, that will ease over towards new england towards new york. that eastern side of canada comes out. so that'll run across the panhandle and push up towards the carolinas. over the next few days had already brought some very heavy writing across jamaica. now making his way towards that western side of cuba to make a sing $99.00 millimeters of rain in only $24.00 as $88.00 millimeters of that fell in the space of only 6 hours. that is around twice the july average rainfall. wet weather will continue to make us way across western cuba and up across the product, please. ah, the bank energy and say

to every part of our universe or small to continue the change all around the shape by technology and human ingenuity. we can make it work for you and your business. ah, the me. watching out 0 mind to the top stories this our world health organization has warned government against eating, coven 19 restrictions to soon criticizing what

a cause. a premature rushed back to full, no manatee. it says the pandemic isn't over yet. further waves of infection could arrive later in the year. while the warning came as the u. k. prime minister confirmed most kind of 19 restrictions in england will be elected in 2 weeks. people wordpress to web based mos in most places or maintain social distance thing or job for admit and they could drive off infections. i've got a strong government sending reinforcements for the north of the country off 2000 if it's troops fled across the board to touch. it's don taliban fighters have been gaining territory, raising concerns about secure seeing once foreign troops complete withdraw in september. if europe yes, prime minister i be asked net has defended the decision to cite rebels in the northern te gray region speak to parliament. he described to grand forces as a danger to the west of the country, leaders into gray,

se they're willing to accept a federal government sees far if certain demands on it. catherine, so i reports now from this number by i got up because the prime minister be responding to questions from members of parliament in the session was mainly about his power on economic development. but the crisis in t k was also be called their gender. and what's the future relationship between the federal government and the t p. s? can there be sustainable peace and to growing up and is there the possibility of to grain forces taking their flight beyond the grain borders? the prime minister gave more reasons why the military was deployed to the region last november, saying that the grand forces had an expansionist agenda to destabilize the country . with the good to go to hell plan, they prepared an army, but they didn't stop there. they started encroaching on the rest of a t o p and started to destabilize the entire nation in all sorts of ways. this is quite dangerous, and at the end of the day,

it would endanger the existence of the nation. it's considered as a threat to the government to declare the war over in late november. but things have changed. the rebels have taken the capital macalester and other areas in the region. so i think with less expected was the speed with which the t. d. f transformed itself from a mo bile disbursed gorilla force into almost a conventional army that just marched and not only on. the humanitarian situation is dia, the u. n says more than 400000 to grands and now suffering from farming. electricity and telephone lines have been cut. the air space is closed and infrastructure including important bridges, have been destroyed. family, say a political dialogue is necessary, but does not appear possible just now. the government doesn't recognize the t, d, f,

as the legitimate authority into gray doesn't even seem to accept that it exists. and the t d f says it doesn't want bilateral talks with the government. it believes that a national dialogue is necessary to save ethiopia. so i think we're far from anything beyond immediate humanitarian troops, if that that the grand leadership and its political party, p l, f. have given a list of demands for these via it ones, among other things, the federal government to recognize it as the legitimately elected regional government of the guy that may be difficult, that ministration of prime minister has already labels dpi left and it forces a terrorist organization kathy employee all to 0. i dissolve of us. armed men have kidnapped a 150 school students in north west and nigeria. witnesses say the attack took place over nice at the high school near could do in a city. and a separate incident. 8 people were abducted from a hospital in nearby zaria city. that's been an increase in mass kidnappings for
