i guess with ah, ah, this is al jazeera ah hello, hello raman, watching the i was there a news our live from our headquarters here in doha coming up in the next 60 minutes . you as president joe biden, wards of a surgeon cases of the amazon barian saying it's critically important for people to get vaccinated. also rescue operations on the way in the philippines after it was

slammed by one of the most powerful storms of the year. johnson, the parties i pressure grows on the british prime minister party suffered a crushing defeat in a bi election plus i'm alexandra buyers, that the cats are balloon festival. here in doha, i'll bring you the birds, i view of efforts to send tourism to new heights. i had of next year's fifo world cups and he said to the source code 19 is once again impacting leaves and competitions all over the world. liverpool will be the new council, 3. 1 for 3 of the plan has positive and 9 other printed games are called or i welcome to the news. we begin with this warning from g 7 nations that the alma called barian to the biggest current threat to global public health. now they're

calling for better coordination amongst countries to find the current. viras pandemic. dr. bartons, as the spread of the very end in the us, will accelerate into the new. yeah. he says the unvaccinated will be worst effected . it's here now, and it's spreading. and it's going to increase for own vaccinated. we are looking at a winter of severe illness and vaccinated for themselves. their families and the hospital will soon overwhelm. but there's good news if you'd rather than a 100 booster shot, you're protected from severe illness and death. well, the u. k has reported a record number, the infection for the 2nd day in a row. more than 88000. the whales is closing all night clubs to helps flow the spread. and france has banned non essential travel from the united kingdom by anyone who isn't a french citizen or a resident where we challenge has more from london the 1247 year

staff from london brought its usual bustle to paris. but soon, these trains may be mostly empty from saturday, frances limiting travel to and from the u. k. so only those with compelling reasons . french nationals, residents and their families, all arrivals have to isolate truck drivers. they are exempt, it will say salvage adult. you get your blessing damage. this is the framework that will be put in place, which will allow us to further type in the next to slow down and reduce as much as possible the arrival of a mac on various cases in our territory so much. during this time, we vaccinated that the booster shots spent for the 2nd day running the u. k. has logged a record breaking number of new cases, 88000 on the cronies, spreading through this country faster than any previous various forest. johnson's government is focusing on the vaccine boosters, as it principal weapon that and urging people to think about where they go and who they see. we don't want to make your choices for you about your social life. well

closing things we all saying is people should be cautious and they should think about their activities in the, in the run up to turn to christmas on the streets of london's west end. those i spoke to didn't seem overly concerned. just put me off to project. get it. i get, i mean, i thought, you know, i'll get in. you just go to live. you can't shut yourself away. forever. have you any plans? no, i haven't. i may just go to the states and actually mary poppins trying to stay safe, but still trying to live a normal life. but plenty of others are changing their plans at this to star shortages because of infection. and business is a suffering again. it is canceling performance if restaurants, cafe in nightclubs, losing booking. and unlike before when they have government financial assistance to

help them cope with this, this time, their own their own, sorry say one in 5, hightail cancellations at the moment. it's people that ship against their christmas party is people not working from home and not traveling. james, bainbridge runs the white heart hotel and well in north of london. he wants the government to think again. we've had a lot of help and it's been, it's what kept us going and it's been well worth it if it was to stop. now not happened. that's a wasted. what's the point of getting this far as far as we have that will be taken away and for businesses to them fail? it's all so very familiar. another wave of infections business is in trouble again . another christmas in dowse cove. it is the unwanted gift we can get rid of. we'll reach helen's out 0 london. now the center for disease control is recommending that americans choose other current virus vaccines over the johnson and johnson job. now the cdc says the single shot is less effective than those made by montana and find

that the rare occasions lead to take a course of crossing at least 9 people have died from those quotes in the us. now, out of more than 200000000 fully vaccinated americans, 16000000 have received the johnson and johnson champ. now, the johnston johnson vaccine has been manufactured in south africa. it's government has promised to denature on to 1000000 doses, to other african nations that's get more on the cdc recommendation for me to mila in johannes. good, what one does, how you might say the mixed messaging might affect the vaccine rollout, not just across south africa, but across the continent. well, especially considering how important it is to have that roll out across africa and how these vaccines are needed across the continent. for the meantime, the south african health authorities and sciences is saying that there's been no alarming data. well, i think you know that they should not use j and j. they do appreciate what's come

out of the united states, but they say investigation. continue to show that it's safe. and now we also have that announcement of $2000000.00 vaccines j and j vaccines being manufactured in south africa to be, to be distributed across african countries over a one year period through the african union. and that's the spite that c d c advisory, a recommendation that they should look at other types of vaccines rather than j and j. but of course, you mentioned this does contribute to the issue around mixed messaging as well as hesitancy back. couldn't sell that for big sell africa began to roll out with astrazeneca that was halted abruptly because of concerns around efficacy. now you have an issue with j and j america saying, well, maybe we should hang on for a moment while we investigate that. african scientists are saying it's fine and also are expected to, in the coming days of to a trial with j and j and health workers will then perhaps roll out

a booster shot of j and j to the general public. so me to put it all in perspective, poor countries on the african continent have no choice but to have the j. j vaccine because it does the job, it's easily stored, it's easily transportable. you mustn't down play. the effect is effectiveness of the vaccine that has saved millions of lives in africa. and that's the main message from health authorities in south africa, specifically, but talking to the broader continent in south africa. the way it has been a search numbers in terms of people being, if the infected by colbert 19. but what is key and what has been emphasized is that there's been a low hospital admission rate. so scientists are saying the vaccine is keeping people safe from severe illness, death and hospitalization. and this is why they want that roll out across africa. presently, only 7 percent of africans out of a population of more than 1000000000,

have been vaccinated for a number of reasons. and as you mentioned day because the lack of access, the capacity to perhaps vaccinate people, transportation, while at storage facilities, j and j can be stored at a lower temperature than other vaccines. it's only only require one dose, and this is what makes it just an easier vaccine for many people across africa and the same way. so that's because, well, in terms of manufacturing, next vaccine will come into play and also remembering that just months ago, so that for go was manufacturing jo vaccines and exporting those vaccines to europe . and there was a mass of outcry about africa being neglected. so this really is an opportunity for south africa to contribute to that african vaccine, the roll out plan. but again, it comes down to how willing people are to be vaccinated, given again, that mixed messaging as well as access to the vaccine. and just how much these

2000000 vaccines will contribute to keeping african safe for me to mila job is big . thanks very much for the update. let's bring in doctor son j a and a nick a. he's silent pictures, diseases, physician and the australian national university joins me via skype phone camera. thanks very much for joining us. that's just me the conversation all ready for what we've already been hearing because the priority of the vaccine rollout and africa was want to get everybody globally, no matter where they, they were jobs and the j and j job is a one shot wonder with few storage problems as we've just mentioned, but the, the issue is about its efficacy and the fact that it is slightly weaker in its potency or effectiveness. and therefore you may need that 2nd job some time in the future. we'll look at against delta. it's even a single dose seems to be quite difficult if acacia sort of the 70 percent class ballpark with over 80 percent effectiveness against serious disease and

hospitalization. that's pretty good. i do actually wonder though if it is better off being a 2 dose vaccine for its prime immunization course, because they have shown on that a booster will increase. the antibody level then increases that protection against severe disease. but look, it is a very good vaccine for all the reasons that were outlined earlier. you can use the single dose, it's much easier to store than be m r n a vaccines like by the end, madonna, because of the mixed messenger and coming onto the us is, are a problem that job could be regarded as the poor man's vaccine. and therefore, may well be suited to low income households, who for one reason or another won't or can't get a choice of a vaccine or big also because of distance and travel. oh yes, i think it's a big problem. now the j and j vaccine has the similar technology, this ad, no bar aspect of vaccine to astrazeneca. and in australia, where we have astrazeneca, we've had mix messaging and poor messaging,

which led to relatively poor uptake of the astrazeneca vaccine, especially amongst the younger people. and the everyone was focusing on the very, very rare risks of a rec hi, low risk of a very rare condition and the very low risk of death. rob been looking at the benefits of it. and i think it's really important that people understand that these are good vaccines, they do have serious side effects, but they're really rare. and the benefits outweigh the risks. so what? well, so while sort of the developed world is told to take whatever vaccine comes its way in terms of a boost of the u. s. advising sort of a mix and match approach to boost to jobs. what's your opinion about sort of a mixing in the matching of various vaccines? well, we certainly know that through the u. k. studies and they've been studies in spain and other parts of the world. and places like canada have been mixing and matching

vaccines that it's not interesting to do. it's a sad thing to do. and in fact, when you mix and match, particularly that's presented, followed by 5, you get extremely high antibody levels. so there's nothing wrong with it. in fact, the european medicines agency has just recommended johnson and johnson as a booster for people who've had one of the m r in a vaccine. so it's definitely a thing at the moment. does any of the advice coming from europe resonate closer to home where you are in australia because it's still a great deal of vaccine hesitancy in one wonders? why? yes, i think a lot of it started by started off with the fact that these vaccines have been produced and rolled out in a manner more quickly done than ever before. the quickest vaccine that went from start to finish prior to code 19 was month. it took 4 years,

so there was always some suspicion them with the astrazeneca johnson and johnson, the clothing issue, where the risk of death is really one from between one in a 1000000 to one in 2000000. and the risk of getting clots from koby competitive compared to these vaccines is 200 times higher. it just hasn't been conveyed quickly and properly enough. and of course, we've got the choice of these other m r n a vaccines, which don't seem to have that same risk of clotting even though that risk of quoting, unless it is so rare. dr. sunjay or that on a i k. i thanks so much for joining us from cambra. thank plenty morehead, here on the news are including 11 years after the spring began into museum and people are back on the streets calling for great to change and install the latest from the 2nd ashes test in australia. they build a school against england. ah,

officials say 5 people are being killed and one of the most powerful tropical storms in the philippines this year. more than 300000 people have been displaced in southern and central regions. the storm is weakening of slammed into the coast on thursday. winds of up to 195 kilometers power knocked down power lines and rich roots of homes. drill. linda can has this update for manila menu of the areas hits since then actually have lost power communication lines. so there are very little information coming from province. it's like late, for example, saudi go, behold, province. and even earlier at the press conference by those who are part of the national disaster risk management office, they themselves admit that this is quite critical. at least, you know, one 100000 people have already been effective. 100000, be hundreds of thousands of people remain evacuated and,

and the point is still in the areas of allow and province, which is expected to leave the philippine area responsibility by tomorrow there on saturday morning. but again, the most critical part here. now, according to the government, is to figure out how to send preposition 8 and military responders from different from, from different parts of the country to areas that they are most needed in 2013 and spice. one how young happened, which is the strongest storm to ever hit on record where more than 7000 people died and left millions more displaced. the philippines was able to in a way, institutionalize disaster and response operations. but the panoramic has made that difficult, for example, all of those who have been evacuated residents from many communities can not really stay in evacuation centers in temporary shelters for too long. that's because of the government's self imposed minimum health protocol because of the core with 1900

for them. that makes it very difficult to provide social distance thing in february shelters like schools for example. that's one. and also many of the areas hit since last year. for example, around this time typhoon van call. these areas are coastal and agricultural communities that continued the fair, the brunt of last year's devastation. and of course, the impact of this recession, which has been seen as the worst in decades for the philippines. so many of these communities worry not just about survival now, but how they can actually go back to working again because they fear that many of their farm lands their boats for fishing have been destroyed. and they are now very much dependent on aid from the philippine government. at least 19 people have died in japan after a fire in a psychiatric clinic in a socket. it's been that number will rise. the police are reportedly investigating suspected awesome victims were thought to suffer from heart and lung failure for

the seller has more than took you we have got this firework out in a saudi building in kit award in a city very close to the main station. a station in the middle of the city, and at the 4th floor, which was medical clinic and it, it seems that it's used for psychotic treatment. fire broke out there, about 20 meters, 20 square meters were burned, and the other upper floor. also, they were effected by the fire and i witnessed mentioned that the fire had been on 10, 20 am a fine and within 30 minutes, the fire department was able to put off the fire about the number of victims indicate that on monday, the 4th floor was affected but also the upper floors also forces familiar with the case. they're saying that an eye witness mentioned that

a man in his sixties was holding back and he dispersed the liquid around that time. and that's how the fire start to go. this is why the police are suspecting that is a deliberate arsenal act and they are now checking if one of the injured people is actually the austin is because the respected the arson is now investigating the issue as a criminal act. they have also collected many forensic evidence is and now they're in the stage of analyzing all this data. the missionaries he built in haiti 2 months ago have all been released. it's not clear if the ransom was paid for the 17 americans and canadians, some of them were children. the gang had demanded $1000000.00 each of the christian age workers. the final 12 released on thursday and they were captured in october after visiting northridge near the capital portrait prince troy gathered. they were treated role to be well. i am still waiting to hear the rest of their story.

i'm sure they weren't treated supremely new life. haiti is hard, even it's best and aids have not received any details. i think if there had been any severe problems, any injuries or any illnesses that they had, we would have probably heard 11 years ago, a fruit salad into his he set himself on fire in a desperate and fatal act. the protest leading to what became known as the arab spring, but more than a decade after the revolution high unemployment still persists in the country, tennesseans and marking today by protesting both for and against the president nearly the suite heis. i either called a constitutional referenda for next july, a yeah, he sees pool towns and moves. a painter called a cou, alysia boatman jose, you know, from tunis and obviously whoever comes out onto the streets has got an agenda. so

what are people demonstrating about what areas of the city they're demonstrating and dan turned to nicely in the center of the capital. there are 2 demonstrations happening. there is a smaller pro case site demonstration that's actually on avenue hobby book keeper. however, a much larger protest is building outside the avenue by a movement to call them. so citizens against the crew that currently being held by, by police. and this movement is it's quite diverse. we're seeing political leaders, policies, and they are demanding that they can demonstrate on the avenue, which is i, conic. this is where the last stage of the chinese revolution happened. this is where people fought and demonstrated to the authoritarian president. but lee,

at the moment, they haven't been allowed to move forward. and johnson, the mood is assertive rather than angry. but from what i've seen, firms social media videos that the guy is building amongst the m t q protesters. it does see that there are 2 main issues, isn't that as one is the economy and one is the politics of the country. and both things have been both issues have been very uneasy ones, the politicians, to navigate over the 11 years since the fall of the full, the president, that ali and the start of the arab spring. the the journey that tunisia has been taking has been a very rocky one. a teenager has suffered a number of setbacks. the revolution walls, an eco site is sasha economic movement. i did demand was for bread. and in

subsequent years, people have been demanding the same thing. they want prosperity, they want jobs, but the politicians haven't been able to find common ground in a way to achieve negotiates how they develop policy and improve the economic situation. also remember in 20152016 tunisia suffered a wave of terrorist attacks most made sibley the attacking seas and the budget museum, which meant that the country lost a lot of its business to tourism. and since then, you know, things have gone down hill, we're seeing negative growth in the country currently at. she's since july 25th in chi sides. freezing of parliament. we're not she see in the ryans in inflation and prices of food and ordinary products that going up an up until asians are, you know, they are angry and hungry. well, if you see it will continue to watch those protest sat through the day, of course,

but of elisia ultima into this you have prime minister boast olson is under more pressure after a crushing by election defeat. the conservative party has lost the north shropshire seats for the 1st time in almost 2 centuries. the liberal democrats will speak a 100 m p. 's. johnson's own party voted against her time district to create the virus measures your position accused the government of playing politics with public health. this is what the winning candidate, hello morgan to say beta testing times for our country and a chest as we know to well have instruction is teetering on the brink. with economy is in a precarious state, with people's livelihoods at risk. our country is crying out for leadership. mr. johnson, you know, leader and sort of taking action to support structures, pharmacy. you spend your time miss living there. nice. know how you and your office party during locked down tonight, the people have no structure. have said enough enough, they have said that you are in fits late and they want to change or join by under

simmons from the town of when in shropshire. andrew, i mean a kicking and a hammering. call it what you will, but my word, it was a resounding defeat. an utter humiliation really for britons. conservative lead government most certainly some people describing this as seismic in political terms. hello morgan. you just heard there that describing it as rudy north shropshire. up sending out a message to boris johnson, who she named directly at saying the party is over a dick there at christmas parties. this time last year. and the pandemic was really, really biting into people's lives. and the outraged that christmas parties should happen in government circles in downing street real outrage over that, that was an issue that was profound here. another issue was the rebellion of

conservative party's body members over a coven measures. and then of course, at the central issue here, which was o in partisan the m p who breached a government roles with lobbying, basically representing 2 private companies are being paid for it. a try to influence government policy, which boris johnson approached in a really strange way because he wanted to try to lift the suspension of this m p. it didn't work out. it was a bought job and it completely back fired on him. now, these issues are piling up is, isn't really a case of just a midterm blues here. and of course, you know, you've listed that whole, you might say herb as an index. she might save all of the problems that the current cars have to party. and the government have had to deal with it's chairman oliver dowden says that the public wants us to focus on the core job. and 11 does what's

going to take priority right now, because obviously the electorate across the country, you know, once very positive results and, and a government that's in control of the situation, both politically and intensive the pandemic, medically as well. yeah, i think you have to cast your mind, but that's it. 2019, just 2 years ago when boys johnson was my prime minister in a wave of popularity back then, that the one of the many mantras was taking back control at now it's perceived the course johnson is losing control or not just a of, of policies, but also his own party, and this, this resounding message you've got from of this constituency really is along the lines of look. or is johnson get your house in order? you walked down when high street talked to people and you really get the message that there's a real offense taken particularly about this christmas party affair. because,

you know, was a shopkeeper down there who, whose mother, what was not seen by her family for a whole year at that time in about christmas, were when she was very stray pully, and dying in hospital. that was the time when this is christmas party took place. so this sort of sense with this sort of emotive sort of issue a getting at what is a really a, a die hard, conservative mentality, both politically and, and the inside of the people living here. going back to centuries. that's turned around a people haven't just as many fear stayed away and became apathetic. they've actually gone out there and voted against that their party against the whole way of life. in many ways, this was a leave constituency. leave the e u, during breaks it. now they voted in of it into parliament, sub one in the liberal democrat party, which is dead against rex. it,

which was dead against rex. it's so it's the so many aspects lives which are extraordinary, lot to think about, certainly across the you can definitely in when there andrew simmons. thank you. well, still had hill now just there are china hits back at the us run of a special beijing treatment. is that muslim? weakest inch in jane and written thief in the history of mexico. we learn more about the flower that signifies a star to the holiday season. around the world and with him from home to have a song football career about her b as women have money. ah hi there, thanks for joining in high pressure continues to be in charge of cross northwest or

parts of europe. so that's deflecting systems. i'll put the precipitation on now. this system is going to go rate over the republic of ireland and the united kingdom, but a plume of moisture for western areas. scandinavia. next up we've got to talk about the temperatures. they're starting to fall. so for example, saturday london, 8 degrees that is slightly below average, but get used to it because that's how the next few days is going to go. your 5 day shows as just a high of 4 degrees on wednesday and night time temperatures, or they could be sub 0 as we had wednesday into thursday. but there is some warmth to be had as we look toward iberia this pocket. here seville at 21 degrees, it's been bang on average with a high of 15 across the balkans. we do have some cloud that's going to generate some showers in the bit of snow as well. so sophia bulgaria, just looking to pick up a light dusting, but the energy really over a turkey and the eastern med so disturbed weather here through the van really raw feeling day and it's stumble just a high 6 degrees. rain will turn to snow,

for example, in ankara. and for the top end of africa, we've got some showers brushing up against the northern coast of libya and egypt on friday that your.
