[000:00:00;00] i think i'll just the way i medians of chinese around to knock down to stop the spread of the worst corona or so break this here. ah, other unconventional, this is just their law from don't over coming up. last call got on the thresh, i've got on a struggle to start the taliban to dance into the southern provincial capital.

wildfires continue to plays for a fixed day across turkeys coast and forcing with government to think international . how the use sanctions on the nicaraguan president's wife after a crackdown on candidates were planning to run for the president would begin in china where millions are confined to their homes. due to sweeping corona, virus restrictions to find the worst outbreak this year. the delta variant has been blamed for the surgical 30 cities in 19 provinces. lunging the capital of the eastern junk soup province is believed to be ground. 0 of the nation wide flare up . a 3rd round of testing is underway for more than 9000000 people. hospitals in the city of suspended outpatient appointments. so we all look at she's home. most of the cases were found at lucas airport and nearby areas and were detected from high

risk figures that replaced under tight management and control in early stages. most of the confirmed cases were found among the was placed under centralized quarantine and home. my solution among the hub said, is the scenic city of john tier all attractions and jung jace have been closed. tourists being asked to take a coven test before leaving the city. an outbreak of the theatre also led to a spike nationwide is traveling, returned home, and begging has been put on high alert. testing has been ramp, dump anyone arriving from a city with confirmed cove in 1000 cases has been banned from entering the capital . flights trains and buses from those areas have also been hope it katrina you has more from aging overnight. authorities recorded 61 you cases nationwide. that brings the total to more than $400.00 cases discovered over the past 10 days. now previously this year we had, we had other outbreaks. these were sporadic isolated outbreaks. what's more

concerning about this particular outbreak is how wide spread it's become very quickly. it's now reached 16 provinces. in the space of 10 days. there are a number of major classes for this outbreak. most of these cases are identified in the city of nudging. now the source is said to be a group of janitors, who became infected of the cleaning of flights that came in from russia. and this cluster has grown to about $200.00 or so in lunging, another potential super se, better event that they've identified as also in jung judge. as you mentioned, one of the most popular tourist hotspots here in china. we had 2000 people gathered in one theaters space, and many of those people did test positive to curve in 1900. the delta variant currently in china, it's the pete travel season. it's the summer holidays. so authorities have told families, look, you've got to cancel your trips, you've got to stay in your home city's major transport links into major cities, including the aging from affected areas have been canceled. large scale events have

also been counseled in crowd capacities have been reduced as well. businesses are concerned that they will be told to shut down in some cities and entertainment then use and jims have already been closed for an indefinite period of time. and people are concerned that this will further damage china's economic recovery, which has already started to slow down at the end of this year. and locked down in thailand, capital and more than 2 dozen other provinces has been extended. as the delta variance pushes up, the number of cases 20 non provinces have been classified as dark reads on citizens in these provinces, a band from traveling to other parts of the country and must adhere to a strict curfew. thailand is also experiencing a major shortage of vaccine for more on this is tony cheng, his line for us in bangkok, tony on the vaccine shortage front appointments now for people to get their vaccines being postponed. so how bad is this shortage,

and how long will it last was very hard to know. frankly, the government's been quite secretive about where the shortage is coming from. but what we've seen over the course of the last couple of months is that signed by a son, the company which has been licensed by astrazeneca to produce the vaccine here in thailand. i should mentioned this not just for time, but so many countries in se asia has been running well below capacity. the seneca in secret papers released has defended themselves, saying that they were initially the orders that initially came from the tiger were much lower than those that are now needed. but science by science was also a company which was a controversial choices, a vaccine producer. because it had no vaccine production experience. that said anyone here in thailand who criticize the process will try to investigate who is finding themselves in quite a lot of trouble because it is a company which is ultimately owned by the king. and if you criticize the company,

you in effect, criticize the king. but i think we're seeing now the problem of putting such a vital vaccine production in the hands of a company that isn't very experienced because lots of people are being told not just here and buying cope with around the country that their appointments for vaccines are being postponed indefinitely. we have seen this happen in the last couple of weeks and more productions come up. we understand that the government is seeking thank students from elsewhere. they've already signed deals with pfizer madana, but we're not expecting major shipments of those to vaccines to come in until the last culture of this year. and i think at the moment they're just trying to concentrate their efforts on the urban centers where the delta there is a real problem. ok, tony, if we look sort of regionally, there are record numbers of deaths now in malaysia and extension of covered restrictions and indonesia. but some countries in many countries really and

southeast asia are avoiding full lockdown like the ones in post last year. why is that? but i think this year, they realize that it's not just the health issue they have to contend with. we've seen real economic problems here in thailand and indonesia, malaysia, a lot of which stemmed from those low downs were you know, people were stuck in the homes 1st 6 weeks, 2 months and everything just ground to a halt effectively here in town. and the government is very keen to keep, even if it's just a trickle of business going on. while actually many people here say they would be very happy to go into full load down. they wanted that to happen in april when this current wave really started to take a grip and a lot of people. so the government should've reimpose the conditions, the harsh conditions of last year. the other differences then there was government support this year. i think many of the governments in this region

a trying to do without having to reach deeply into their pocket. thank you that tony chang, there for us in bangkok. officials in the us say the delta variant of coven 19 is spreading like wildfire. and the past 2 weeks, cases increased dramatically with hospitalisation and some states reaching record levels. the biden administration has a lockdown is unlikely, but things will get worse before they get better. and to galico points from miami. as the number of coven 19 cases surpasses, 35000000 in the us, the delta variant continues to be the dominant, more contagious strain of an already deadly virus. hospitals in states like nevada, mississippi, an arkansas or a surgeon, is mostly unvaccinated patient infected, with a delta variance seek treatment. with the push to get more people vaccinated, increasing and urgency, there's

a renewed effort to treat the vulnerable over before. no, god, i swear i think i've been stayed in this house for the housebound, all those to afraid to go outside programs like this or a potential life saver. forget all the stupidity, all the, all the anti vaccines and all that. and where they get their information that is completely wrong. so i knew a lot of nurses and in my family and stuff and everything. so and people have died. so it's just the way it works in florida, which so its highest number of daily cases on record. last week testing sites, a once again, seeing long lines. this state now accounts for one in 5 new cobit cases with hospitalizations hitting a new high according to the department of health and human services. more than 10000 people a currently being treated here. many of the younger than seen before. despite those staggering numbers, the states governor is refusing to mandate month's quarters or allow local

officials to put restrictions in place to prevent the spread of coven 19. there'll be no restrictions, and no mandate in the state of florida. wow. meridian have been are, and will remain free to choose what's best for themselves and their families. in stark contrast, officials in san francisco announced a new mask mandate regardless of vaccination status. louisiana 2 is reinstated, it's mask mandate effective from wednesday. but despite the di warnings, large events are still being held across the us. officials say another round of tight restrictions is unlikely with only around half the adult population fully vaccinated the course to increase that number a growing while vaccinated people can spread the virus if they get a breakthrough infection. the odds of them getting sick in the 1st place are far

lower than those who are on vaccinated. and in fact, places with more vaccination generally have left to be. over the past 3 weeks, a piece of vaccinations have steadily risen, particularly, and mostly southern states that were lagging that many. this later search is a tipping point and a realization. the vaccines are the only way to beat the virus. and the galico al jazeera miami, florida. oh, i taliban has pushed further into afghanistan. gosh, got golf city, and had fears that may be the 1st provincial capital to fall to the armed group. the capital of the southern helmand province has seen heavy fighting and frequent air strikes. and saturday is one of the number of cities under attack from the taliban. charlotte, bella, susan campbell, not in a choke. it was just you when you was to. this is a square inside the city and we just captured, it says this tell

a boat to decide whether to go off the 5 of the countries ex presidents, the corruption in the end, it was a spectacle. only 7 percent of the electra voted 9 out of 10 of those you did did vote to bring their lead trial. you could have been the most important that i think that the most important thing here is that in p c. c. in this country, the 40 percent of the electoral vote for the referendum to be legally binding it so far. sure. most met. i do believe that corruption has been prevalent and passed administration, but many of why should have both be needed. the justice to be done, just as i believe that the people should not be consulted on whether to prosecute a president or not. the government should just apply the law especially as met because constitution already allows fritz presidents to be prosecuted, opponent to current president under as men will look over the doors. said this was just political theater in turn,

his party accused electoral authorities but not putting out enough ballot boxes or information for the referendum to be a success initial national. but it was, it's not a question of budget, but as well they didn't have enthusiasm for the vote and they don't have in these the ask them for democracy. the main question of the referendum was also changed by the country supreme court ruled. it wasn't legal to direct the folks of the past president tried this thought, seem pretty clear you want the judiciary to investigate these men. but it turned into something quite different. have a listen. all you or all, you know, in favor of the pertinent actions to, to take a process of shedding light on the political decisions made in parties by political actors. it goes on, but you get the idea. it gets pretty hard to see what you're actually voting on. so now it's too low, but what if anything, with the referendum main heading food? my general impression is that the precedent does not want to start as something similar to

a transitional justice process. even thought he promised that during his campaign, and my fear is that if he had not done this during the 1st 3 years of his mandate, that he's not going to change with a referendum in which only 7 percent of the relation participated. there is some talk of a truth commission to deal with a wide variety of past transgressions. if that's form ms. effective will probably have less to do with this though. the will of the president john home and how does it or mexico city. ah, this is al jazeera and these that drawings the delta variant has being blamed for the coven. 19 surge across 30 cities in 19 provinces and china. non generous, believe to be ground, 0 if the nation wide flare up. among the hardest cases,
