ah, ah ah, ah, health officials in the us sideline, the johnson johnson crone of iris job over rare cases of blood clotting. ah, clubs, the harmony watching all is there a life my headquarters here in doha, also coming up the you and says all sides in ethiopia, we're guilty of committing severe human rights violations and calls for an end to the conflict 11 here since the arab spring tennesseans are back on the streets calling for greater change. first johnson,
5:01 pm
the parties ada pressure grows on the british prime minister as his party suffers a crushing defeat in a bi election. ah, welcome to the break m g 7 nations, a warning the amok on variant is the biggest current threat to global public health . it's calling for better coordination amongst countries to fight the crone of iris pandemic. president joe biden says the spread of the very end in the us will accelerate into the new year, and he says the unvaccinated will be worst effected. it's here now, it is spreading, and it's going to increase for on 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,
5:02 pm
you're protected from severe illness and dead. the u. s. and as for disease control is recommending americans choose the pfizer or maternal vaccines instead of the johnston, johnson job. and it says the single chart is less effective and in rare cases can be 2 fatal blood clotting. south africa says it'll donates around $2000000.00 doses of the j and j vaccine to other african countries over the course of the next year . well, my color shows me now from washington d. c. for the very latest. the american presidents statement was ready for the american public, but it does resonate beyond the borders of the usa. but how about is the situation at the moment where you are? well, the situation's dire to put it bluntly. the statistics are absolutely frightening. over the past month, the incidence of the corona virus is increased by some 40 percent at present. there
5:03 pm
are some 120000 new cases being reported every day. in addition, the death rates being rising sharp as well. some $1300.00 americans are dying each and every day. now, health experts say that this app surge is being driven by the combination of variance. both the delta variant and the newly discovered army kron. so these are definitely driving the development, but what's also a major factor in here is politics. the red states, those that supported for president trump are 40 percent higher in terms of infection rates than the blue states. those are the ones that supported president biden. so there's a clear political connotation to the spread of the corona virus and to this increase in figures. hence, we have president biden repeatedly asking all americans to get back survey to get
5:04 pm
a boost, a shot. but at the moment, some 40 percent of americans still will not or cannot get vaccinated. of course, there is an option in developed western countries to choose the vaccine that you want if it is available. is that option available to every american mike across the us? well, that's a very difficult statistic to find out, j and j has being used very widely within the u. s. there are some areas in which j and j is the only vaccine available, specifically which ones very difficult to ascertain. but the point is that this recommendation to use or not use, preferably j and j from the cdc, obviously not from the white house, the white house, just acting on c d. c advice. now, it must be made clear as well as that the cdc is not saying that j and j is in effective. it is saying that it would be preferable to take one of the 2 other
5:05 pm
vaccines available to americans, should they be available to that particular person? so it is a issue among those who refused to get vaccinated, saying that, well, now you are saying that that vaccination should not be used, but the big impact as well perhaps, is globally. you mentioned there that south africa is going to the native large number of j j vaccines to the rest of the continent. remembering that only 7 percent of people on the continent of africa have been vaccinated and kill you have he repeated statements from african politicians and leaders saying that they are having to survive on the crumbs from at bonds countries, tables. the issue that a backseat that now in the u. s. is said is not preferable, being more widely available in africa just goes along to bolster that particular argument. mike had a washington dc, thanks very much for the update. well, for me,
5:06 pm
the miller has more from johannesburg, experts in south africa saying that while they do recognize global daughter, that this recommendation may be premature in that south african data shows no adverse effects based on studies in south africa. we're currently health workers are taking part in a study around a booster shot of the j and j vaccine. and they say that we know adverse effects and there aren't any alarming signals to indicate that perhaps they should put j and j on hold. in fact, health expert to say that in the coming days, they may make an announcement around allowing booster shots of join j and j to the general public. they've also said they've always known that they are certain risks around vaccines, not just j, a j, specifically blood clots, but these are very rare. and that essentially the benefits of the vaccine, even that one shot of j j outweighs the risk. and so still urging people to get
5:07 pm
back to native, even with j and j, while america, the cdc, specifically may be saying, let's rather look at an alternative instead of using j n j. so for the moment, south african saying, or experts health authority saying that they are confident the daughter they haven't had and will continue using the back vaccine in this country. france has been non essential travel from the u. k. but anyone who isn't a french citizen or residence in butler has moved paris, pull the french government's decision to find all non essential travel between france and the you. k from saturday has caused a lot of disruption and disappointment for people in both countries who are hoping to spend some of the holiday season with the family and friends. so lot of people have had to cancel their trips. others have been scrambling to try and get a plane or a train before those restrictions come into force. and we've been speaking to some of them here at the cross channel train terminal in paris. lot,
