a wonderful life. earlier body received a visit from his rival conservative, cassandra, your cast little cast, had conceded defeat just a little over an hour after the post closed. you look in a folder full, i will as much as we can get our legitimate differences. him said, we want to continue contributing to our homeland. he must all once again unite all chileans. gavin conservative presidents of us dam pineda who also opposed, bought each rush to make the traditional conciliatory phone call. for the 1st time in 40 years, there will be a president who will attempt to change to this free market economic model, which millions of chileans believe is responsible for extreme social inequality in this country. i think if we, on every, with patients with their new president but a leg that wanted to pages of congress, which is split between his supporters and his opponents with me that he's going to

have to include consensus. and that big the question, how long will this enthusiasm last but each acknowledged that he faces serious economic and political challenges, but for at least a short while. it was time to celebrate a victory that symbolizes a huge leap of faith by the people of chile. to see a newman, al jazeera santiago that spring and have a father who's a journalist and latin america, political analysts to georgia, now from london by ascribed. good chevy with us, sir. ivy. what's behind botches? resounding victory and this one off? was it a vote of confidence in him at his policies or more rejection of his right wing opponent a deal bose. what happened was that more people came out to walk in to run off. it was for cost at $300000.00 more people would come out to watch in areas were mr. cars was popular. however, $1200000.00 people came out to one and run off huge,

huge amount of people in areas where mister body. but boy, he campaign campaign really heavily, but also in our, as when you were very popular, how did that? because he is of chile, somebody out a copy, tell them about bonnie's and dissolved. so this 1.1000001.2000000 people made a huge difference. i gave him this huge, big 3 michael victory. why, why did these people vote for him? because he moderated, he says beach. he managed to get the support from, from a precedent and michelle joshlett, i'm from a residence to catalog which is very important because they belong to the motor. a window of their christian democrats under social is body, which is a moderate that we associate had party in that we party in chile. so these combination of factors, what happens is that this is big, both the biggest turns out for a run off in the heat of her chilly. she did the moccasins and the pulse because

she era seems 1989 at done me that you speak for him. he can being heavily been more than pot of chili will. shiki was it big week, he managed to get roll from all the parts because she didn't have boulder for him and putting all that together made it puzzle for him to have this huge mark, which is a multi margin. as you sit right in the introduction, he is in the he's your t is run, it of inexperience was highlighted by his rivals, right throughout the campaign. won't. will a bartch presidency look like? is the country now set for huge social change? well, he has moderate, did he says be he comes of the radical if he says he canceled the coaches will been to students of 2011 against him now are going, president sheriff can be in his 1st period on the 2019 as social unrest. he was one of, if he does and that's how he'd be his political career. he had a ride, he got his speech about reduction of poverty on increasing employee and,

and also increasing their patient for the poor people in the country that treat to some kind of wary i'm on economy who was saying who we need, economic stability. now he has moderate, which is be he's going to go ahead with some of his radical changes, but at the same time, he's going to maintain a market economy, obviously, because he knows that this, that he's got the markets, he's been going, the government will have to be able to implement these changes. he has to, we incorporate the labor for the central bank in t critics have on up to 2.5 percent off of the glove, some in the economy and he needs to get that back. okay, go look, if i li, meek, i think it says lumpkin economic output chill. how long will the public give him to bring about the change that they expect? what are some of the potential pitfalls that law had for him and will his 4 year term be enough for him to make a difference? that's a very good question. there won't be

a husband. there's no question about it. people are going to speaking to start the changes his trade away. he has to make alliances in the congress, but also the same time goes, it goes deeper in the safety of the moment. he's discussing a new goals, he do sion that would replace it being a shake warranty tuition now and the political if, if the new constitution where many people from the live have a great, you know, my of numbers within did. but it assembly come up with erotica constitution, he's going to have to implement a radical program, but at the same time, in the senate chamber, an indifferent as jim. but he's going to have to make alliances where more moderate force is to be able to implement these changes, especially the christian democrats had the mother socialist party. and every species could, we'll have to. and actually he did that during the 2nd campaign he, he moderated his be, he said that he's going to read pathway, rest, paid the market economics, but he states that the air increase of the labor force will enable the economy to, to revive. so he won't have a honeymoon, people will just take him to implement certain changes his straight away there for

years that he has for president won't be in of obviously it will depend very much on whether that she not decided to we're late left. we neither, but she's going to have to study straight away. the mike as i speaking him to respond and mom's in that market economics. so there is stability of the economy comes back again as i said to you, different slumber, 2.55 percent of the economy economy, according to the central been how he needs to get that. but there are many people from believer falls. well, probably because of it, but that he has to get people but to, to work on the same thing. he has to reduce an employ. she has to combine market economics and radical social policies. that's going to be very difficult for him. i, he's going to need a lot of support for all the political forces weaving. dad, she didn't congress to be able to implement. he's having a program, but have enough i'm, he's stuck straight away. have him any thanks. wanted to have your father in london . plenty more to come here. all the usa including battling the alma kong

surge, the top of u. s. infectious diseases expert warms that holiday travel will only make the very and spread worse. the un special rumpled her accuses me on mars military leaders of crimes against humanity. and it's 4 primarily teams are set to decide if football can continue. despite a record number of code. 19 places among players with 12 people have died with the omicron variant of corona virus in the u. k. according to the countries deputy prime minister dominic rub is refusing to rule out new restrictions ahead of the winter holidays. britain has reported record levels of code. 19 cases with officials warding the full effects of the latest wave are yet to be seen. let's go live that alonda now to sierra, jonah whole can tell us more. so we're seeing this soaring infection rates are jona,

is the government going to bring in more restrictions over the holiday period? or to look at those numbers and to listen to dominic rob this morning and to listen to the scientists, you'd have to think bars. johnson must be considering new measures, new restrictions. the only question is, when does he do it before christmas, or does he do it after christmas? because the scientist to say that come the new year that could easily be hospitalized ations and deaths in the several thousands per day if something isn't done very, very soon to limit that and all of this puts the prime minister in an extremely awkward position. he's effectively caught now between the science and m. p. 's, and cabinet ministers on the right of his own party, who revolted in large numbers last week against covert measures. and who will do so . again, they say more time is needed more data to be collected, to study the effects of amik on and decide how best to respond to it. and there are

already open whispers in this group that the problems as time may be up if he doesn't stop doing things the way they want things done. and in terms of cobra, that means no more locked downs, no more destruct disruption to the economy. a prime minister meanwhile, is reported to be considering a range of options with a decision that really needs to be made this week options all the way from. so the guidance only very light touch suggesting that people limit that contacts all the way through to kind of locked down like restrictions involving no mixing in doors, no hospitality, christmas effectively canceled. we've seen it all before. this as the prime minister is on the fire, once again, the holding looks very much like a garden party during last year's lockdown. what for the fall out? can we expect from that? do you think? well, it just sort of draws at the so called party gate,

christmas party gate stroke story, yet further people were like it. of course, it adds to bars. johnson's problems overall. a photograph obtained by one of the newspapers that shows mister johnson and his wife carry and a whole range of aids and officials, 19 in all enjoying a wine and cheese in the downing street garden in the summer after a summer afternoon. last may, it was a moment when dining street had previously set the 15th of may, no social gathering took place there now presented with this evidence. and now saying, look, these were work colleagues meeting in a work setting. it will all form part of a downing street appointed investigation into the alleged social events of last summer. but as i said, it just adds more and more to voice johnson's problems. he's all 30 already diminished among his own. m. p. 's. but with the public as well because of all of this. and as he prepares, potentially to asked him to observe yet more rules, yet more restrictions. this is the last thing he needs because it presents

a picture again to them of a government that isn't prepared to observe the rules themselves. how does this john hall reporting live from london? joe? not many thanks. indeed. hospitals, hospital staff in france say that there intensive care units are being flooded largely by those who are unvaccinated against cove. at 19, frances government spokesman says that they expect to see 4000 patients and i see you wards with cove. it's 19 by christmas. the country's record of more than 60000 view cases in a single day, france, us band, all non essential travel to the u. k. israel is banning at citizens from traveling to the united states, canada and 8 other countries. because of concerns about the o micron variant of the corona virus, the measures will take effect tuesday. israel is largely closed its international borders out to the new variant a emerged last month. the country has experience experiencing a 5th wave of infections. many americans are reconsidering their holiday plans.

as corona virus case is serge, there. new york reported its highest number of cases for the 2nd straight day. but officials are resisting another lockdown out of zeros. kristin salumi reports from new york. a week before christmas and break through coven cases are forcing the cancellation of several performances from the rockettes annual holiday show at radio city music hall to harry potter on broadway with the alma cron variance spreading rapidly. worried new yorkers lined up to get tested among them, the vaccinated and boosted broadway. actor katy roper, it's been really scary with the new very, very, very scary and i definitely when it gets, as it more i've had a couple of friends as positive as not good. new york city has a 90 percent vaccination rate and some of the strictest vaccination requirements in the country. so despite a new record number of daily infections, new york's mer says more lot downs won't be necessary. we have better treatment

than we've ever had with one of the highest levels of vaccination anywhere in the country. and we have the ability to get a lot more people vaccinated or to get them boosted very, very quickly. still, many americans are reconsidering their holiday travel plans. nationwide. hospitalization rates are also on the rise, though still well below last year's peak. clearly when you travel there is always a risk of increase infection. but if people need to travel in want to travel for the obvious family reasons during this holiday season, if you're vaccinated and you're boosted and you take care when you go into congregate settings, like airports, to make sure you continually where you mask, you should be okay. health experts say, even though alma chron appears to be less deadly than the delta variant, it spreads more quickly, and that could spell trouble for the nation's health care system, with hospitalizations, also rising, particularly in areas with lower vaccination rates. kristin salumi al jazeera new

york. that's brand simon clark. he's an associate professor in microbiology at the university of reading of the u. k. he joins us up from there now. good to have you with a simon. as a microbiologist, what we're as you most about the o micron variant, the way it's growing, the very fast growth rate that we're seeing in the u. k. and around the world. that main stocks, any attempt to boost populations with immunity or even vaccinate them in the 1st place are lagging behind a virus which is spreading incredibly quickly. and of course, it takes about a week for, for a base or vaccine to start to get to stop because any appreciative immunity. so we really are in a situation where we are playing catch up all the time. is there any way to stay safe from this therein of the virus given its remarkable ability to spread,

i mean vac season boosters help to prevent serious illness, but do things like mosques, social distancing, and hand washing all the things we've become used to have any impact on our ability to avoid it, will they probably have a small impact when you add them up together? you start to see more effective protection, but not all those things will, will make you impervious to the virus or invincible in any way. the only sure fire way to, to make sure that you don't know you're not at risk, you don't pick up. an infection is not to meet the body. that's obviously absurd. need recoding because even members of your own family you will meet. they will come into your own house, you will meet them somehow. so things like social distancing, ma, squaring, even vaccines. they're all about reducing people's risks, not eliminating them. and what about those facts seems

a lot of us getting our boost jobs right now, but it isn't going to be possible to tweak vaccines to give better protection against the on the chrome variant. it should be yes. and it should be relatively straightforward, but it takes about 3 months to produce any of the vaccines that we use currently. and then we've got to find out as well, whether they work or not. you know, they said to me because they are different molecules. and the question is, does it work as well, could conceivably work better than what we've had before? i could just, i know, said, could mutate again though, before those vaccines are ready. i mean, could, could you try to get into something even worse than on the chrome? yes, it could. mutation is always possible. every time there is a replication event. every time one new virus part can, he's made. there is a chance, small towns, but

a chance that in your area and who's being married. and of course, because there are billions of trillions of these events every minute, right around the world. you end up with occasionally troublesome, new variables like mix. simon really got to talk to you many thanks. sunday to being with us. talk to find them. in reading. south africa, the president said, roma poster has recovered from coven 19 and his back at work. he's been in south isolation in cape town since testing positive a days ago from a post is expected to check a cabinet meeting. later on wednesday. police in the philippines say that more than 200 people are confirmed dead and the aftermath of super typhoon ryan, thousands of soldiers have joined rescue workers to search for survivors in remote areas. i'll just here is general alan dog and i traveled from sort of our city to sort of the island where the title in 1st made landfill the philippine village. she invited her story recognizance flight over the eastern part of the mindanao region
