drinking shortage mean that you're gonna stream black gold. oil thomas' starts december 4th another covert vaccine, a whole full us pharma company. as its jack shows 95 percent efficacy in trials. that as many countries are tightening, the measures trying to rein in. the also coming up farmers in australia are bringing in the best harvest in here's what they're facing. serious questions of how to sell it on. chris colfer. welcome to the program. and then there were 2 u.s. farmer firm has declared trials of its coronavirus vaccine can do those show it is

95 percent effective. it's the 2nd company to announce successful trials after fires there and biotech last week, and still take time for the actual vaccine to be certified. but already there is the question. will there be enough to go round taken pfizer and madonna are both hoping to distribute a 1000000000 or more doses this year. huge numbers when you compare it to the likes of germany's cure back with just aiming to produce up 240400 1000000 doses in 2021 and the prices well, they're very massively u.k. based astra zeneca is planning to charge the e.u. perhaps as little as $3.00 per dose. johnson and johnson is a bit more expensive, but the 2 frontrunners pfizer and madonna are expected to charge significantly more . mostly because there are more expensive to produce is yet to say how much the can

do that will cost. now despite positive preliminary results from a 2nd covert vaccine candidate, medical experts are urging for caution and patience. many, many questions still remain. 'd about the direction of action, the impact or severe disease it back on its in some populations, especially the elite, as well as there are those events beyond dies. so we also hope that the jennet, the trials, will continue to collect data, because that's really going to be important for us to know about. it is not done getting through to these experts, but that's also what we have in our base case scenarios to our base case scenarios . he said this soft patch, especially in europe, the contraction in the 4th quarter, some stabilization in the 1st quarter next year. and everything is based really on this vote. see on this vaccine being rolled out in the course of the 1st half of next year. if this doesn't happen, then we're in

a completely different play. then we would do not talk about a recovery in 2021, but really a long lasting signees. let's try to stay positive here. i mean, even if the vaccine is there, it'll take time to distribute it will obviously take time to vaccinate all the people. how much of a challenge is this interim phase interim phase? we're in this interim phase already. and yet we see that this is a challenge. just see what the german government was discussing, namely it possible, making the lock on matters even stricter. we just last weekend we had austria going for a strict a lockout. now in europe we even have sweden interest rate to lock down. so you know, that is this typical saying awful things will 1st have to get worse before they get better. i think this is very typical for this interim phase in which we're in right now. a very tough winter. and then with the, with the silver lining after the big scene in the 1st, half of next year,

we would have the prospects for people to really hang in there and then get, this is the recovery. but currently the really short term outlook is not very positive. just thank you for your thoughts this morning. so the development of a covert 19 vaccine seems to be making hopeful progress. pfizer has launched a pilot's delivery program for its experimental product in for us states, one of the global plans of how to distribute a vaccine are also on the way. but just 6 officials call it the mission of the century. we want to see what it looks like at francis because the airport. this is where the global airlift began at france's largest air freight. how about child tickle preparations for transporting a covert? $1000.00 vaccine are in full swing. hundreds of thousands of doses have to be stored at very low temperatures, then shipped from here to destinations around the world. it's

a herculean task for from hong kong in charge of the airport's pharmaceutical freight section. you know, one of the temperature inside his mind is 52 degrees celsius. mine's a c. is possible, but not easy to see in this if is a hind, the scenes, airlines are also gearing up for the global airlift. thousands of planes and workers will be needed for the operation. it's important to keep things running as smoothly as possible. we check each step. deliveries are in the right place at the right time. once a consignment gets the green light, it has to happen quickly. the vaccine must be kept deeply frozen in a complex logistics system. even as we know they'll be a lot of traffic arriving at lossie because it's the major cargo airport in france and europe. but the planes will also have to land in other regional airports close to where patient delivery is needed. something like this listing the vaccine still

not ready for markets, but test runs are under way for what the aviation industry calls the mission of the century. british discount airline. easyjet has posted to the group's 1st ever annual loss as a result of the devastating impact of the coronavirus and them on global air travel is jet said it lost about 1400000000 euros in the past business year. passenger numbers have been cut in half to 48000000, travel restrictions slammed the demand and revenues. plans to fly 20 percent capacity during the 1st quarter and gave no outlook guidance to do what it calls short term uncertainty. for more let's cross over to frankfurt and our financial correspondent, chelsea delaney shells of the 1st annual loss, an easy jet's 25 year history. tell us more well, it's not a surprise given the state of the airline industry since march easyjet,

like all airlines, is facing a big discrepancy between the huge fall off in global travel and in the still high cost that it's having to incur. like many airlines easy jet has had to pay out hundreds of millions of dollars towards customer refunds is still paying many of its staff. it has tried to cut expenses. it's announce plans to head up 30 percent of its workforce. it's been selling off and some of its aircraft, but even with those measures, the company's cash position is still 20 ling so many analysts believe that they will have to seek some sort of help on the quiddity in the months ahead. not jones, or there is news of hopeful covert vaccines, which of course could be highly beneficial to the whole travel sector. what do you suggests, plans look like for the months to come? is he just being quite cautious on the months ahead?

they have still expected capacity to fall quite a lot in its current quarter to about 20 percent of its normal capacity. but they are striking a bit of a tone of optimism. the c.e.o. said that on the day that pfizer and biotech released their vaccine results, they saw book the booking should up about 50 percent. so they still do see demands being quite strong. once these vaccine restrictions are once these krone virus for sections are lifted, just a delay in frankfurt. thank you. and now to some of the other global business stories making news to join the s. and p. $500.00 stock market index on december 21st at a market value of almost $387000000000.00. tesla is the largest company ever to be added to the index over 10 percent on the news. as the listing should boost demand

for the stock air, b.n. b. has filed paperwork for its initial public offering that shows the home rental company lost $1700000000.00 in the last 3 years. there being media has also been hit hard by the pandemic. the company is expected to go public in december and hopes to raise $3000000000.00 by selling shares. chinese telecoms group qual way is selling its budget mobile brand on or to a government backed consortium of 40 companies will figure for the transaction was revealed. but media reports claim it's about $15000000000.00. yes. sanctions mean hallway needs funds for research and development to become fully independent from american suppliers. it's tossed really on now in the country has suffered through years of drought, devastating agriculture and large parts of the country. now it seems, condition has conditions have improved with farmers bringing in the best harvest in decades, but they don't know where to sell it. as the country's biggest customer,

china has hit australia with imports. the grain stands tall as far as the eye can see. it's a historic barley crop, false trail, young farmers estimated to come in at more than 11000000 tonnes. early season rains have convinced many farmers to plant to the edge of their paddocks. and now it's paying off. a lot of people in this district have not have that a crop or a worthwhile crop since 26 days is a lot riding on this particular crop and the weather. the weather was the non for us to turn around positively early, like, generally in february and set it up for a great group. and we are in the middle of the what is one of the best crops ever. but there's a new problem. australia's largest customer, china has put terrorists on australian barley as well as timber. the step is widely

seen as we tele, ation. after australia had pushed for you an investigation into the origins of the corona virus pandemic. australia has also criticised china in other regards. recently the australian side has openly violated basic norms of international relations repeatedly taking wrong actions and words on issues involving china's core interests, such as issues about hong kong and taiwan, and grossly interfering in china's internal affairs. these practices have seriously undermined the mutual trust between the 2 countries and it poison the atmosphere of bilateral relations with the control it joe. it remains unclear how the international dispute will be resolved. meanwhile, australian farmers are looking for other markets and to sell their products domestically. after all, they want to cash in on their record crop. it's about to be christmas in

fight against the coronavirus pandemic has the rate of infection in developing. what does the latest research information and contacts on a virus from every go into poverty line. despite coming from a new family,

the pop star wants to become president. he's a god. this is credible story. starts to some of the worst possible choice for doctors tree arch when they have to decide which critical patients to admit to an intensive care unit and which to turn away to most probably die. it happened in the 1st wave in bad italy. other countries may be faced with the same situation in a 2nd wave intensive care units and nearing capacity and some health care workers are at their limits. when too many people get sick or loved ones, getting the right care may be out of reach. for the hospitals,

better prepared this time. well this next belgian hospital, the c h u has reached its limit. it's transferred at least 40 patients to other hospitals within the country and abroad. the hope is that other european nations remain in a position to help out, and that health care systems aren't suddenly overwhelmed for the start of a journey that could help safe life's this. babson covert 19 patient is about to be transferred to a hospital in germany. 1st patient for today is quite easy for us because he's next and to be to say that if so he's grieving but you have to money for everything particles. so carter forget the blood pressure, the countries and some of the patients and everything was. so that's a little bit challenging us, such as the theory, the 59 year old, freddy needs intensive care support with the wards filling up here. and yes,

he volunteered for transfer to monster in northwest germany, because he can speak german and he gets how are you on 5? thank you. god. during transferred friday, worse, the breathing mask. this plastic covering his mentor, protect him and everyone around him. belgium has become the epicenter of europe's 2nd coronavirus space. yes, in the french speaking part of the country has been hit especially hard. that too many sick people. not enough bat's doctors here. fear that soon have to decide who will get treated and who won't go on the air european countries. and we normally have all we need to say should patients, we don't want to do words that we usually do at the moment. we're still managing, but our biggest fear is that in a couple of weeks we'll no longer be able to cope to help prevent such a situation. belgium has us germany to take over 1000 patients like freddy at the

moment. infection rates are much lower in germany, finn here in belgium, but the situation is unpredictable and could change at any time. we have very good, happy that we can help at this moment in time is to have to pass at the end. belgian capacity to give our viewers an earring, a possibility, so good that we can have known as an ascent perhaps in the future. germans have to come to belgium, fold all the question of european for the very teeth. it's good neighborhoods and it's really close cooperation. in just over an hour, freddy and the crew will have arrived on the other side of the bullet or providing some relief for the hospital here, yash, which is now able to take in another covert 900 patient. the death toll is still rising in belgium, but there are fewer bad, sulky, applied by covert patients than during the peak over, a week ago. you infections are rising in the u.k., but they stay constant in italy and spain and even fallen slightly in germany. and

by a lot in france, let's bring in get moxon anesthesiologist and head of the pop out of intensive care medicine and intermediate carrot and university hospital. based on those trends, would you say europe's 2nd lockdown is starting to work? yes, i think this is fair to say because we had to do rise this in the, at the end of the week, but it's not an exponential rise anymore. so we have sort of a plateau and we have to see the next days. but obviously these are the 1st on the grounds of the successful lockdown. and what about the hospital situation is, is europe doing a better job? it had lng hospitalisations in this 2nd wife. it is more difficult this time because we have more stuff, you know, almost sickness and current seeing. but yes,

i would say so because we are trying to be open and ready for taking any patient but also due to the other operations which are necessary as well. so it's sort of the other way around, is that not? not as bad as far as the patients situation goes, but as far as style thing goes more of a challenge, is that what you're saying? i mean they were the patients. i mean, in the mortality of our ventilator disingenuity who was 50 percent in the 1st wave . and i mean, we have done a lot of research and we have now a lot of experience how to handle these patients, how to protect our stuff. so i do hope that the, the outcome of the 2nd wave is better also we have some medication out xom it as though. and then days of year we do more anticoagulation. and if hopefully less and some both us but still have very sick patients and it's very difficult to treat

them and they always need very long time to treat. so they do ration of treatment as it's really weeks in i.c.u. . so this is very unusual. will it come to triology again in europe like in, back to mo, italy well, i, i'm happy to on. does that for at least for germany. i do not expect that. we will have the situation off tree os because we have still a couple of thousands empty beds available. we have 12000 emergency capacity evade ago, which is then obviously needs stuff from other parts of the hospitals. but having no this flattened current and lined, i mean i do expect that we have a lot and we have today 3400 i.c.u. patients. let's call it 9000 treated in germany. i do expect more, but we will not be in the situation of 3 hours because our politicians,

our government has done the knocked on measurements early enough. so germany is in a good position. would you say to help out other countries when it comes to taking patients? and that's where this way, i mean it's not that we have even the largest get, the city has an end. but obviously in europe we need to support it. and for an example, yeah, and also hysteria. there is that the only us, you know, as we do in minsk that there's no coordination center for dutch and patients. so whenever these 2 countries need support, they go to directly to this, to our colleagues and then, and they're looking without haitian that capacities available. and these patients to these hospitals, which make sense along those border areas, of course,

here in europe and in germany, tell us what the doctors and nurses learn the 1st time around. well the 1st time around was quiet and user situation because it was a new virus, a new disease. it was basically everybody was afraid of getting devices ourself. keeping in mind that in italy, for an example, in the 1st wave around 50 percent of the head of the stuff in the hospital is infected. and so we had to learn how to protect ourselves and what are the specifics of these patients. now we are basically in a more robust and experience situation and i really our teams are doing and super job because they basically they just finished the 1st motown. and now then the middle of the 2nd one and they, so it's really tough, but they're doing a super job and treating these patients day and night. 247. and this is really

great. it's good to hear. and also good to know that hospitals themselves, a safer place is what, what do we need to do to be ready for the next pandemic? i know it's very early to ask, but what do we need to do? we've learned a lot of lessons already from this pandemic. yes, you're right. we learned a lot and we have to make sure that when the pendennis, although we still remember that we, we had to learn our lesson and bring this all into reality. so one example is that we need more stock basically fall the protection gear for fall and medication and trucks. we probably need in europe at least a production side of all these carry in cotton and crucial stuff. and not only a production side as well in the world,

maybe in china already. and also what we need more and more network. so i think this pandemic really did point out that we need to make more out of the potential of the digitization. so we need it, for example, in intensive care. we need national and european networks supporting each other, like we do it here with telemedicine for example, to make it really happen that the same quality of care is basically delivered elsewhere in europe and a pox on one university hospital. thank you very much for your time today. my pleasure. take care. the u.s. says its experimental vaccine is 94 and a half percent effective in preventing the new coronavirus. a late stage trial involves 30000 adults, including many high risk or elderly people in alice is based on 95 infections among

the to spencer received either the vaccine or of those only 5 infections occurred in those who receive the vaccine, which is administered in 2 shots about a month of pot and that now has you over to our science correspondent, eric williams has been looking into the questions you've been sending us on our you tube channel. what about long term complications over 1000 disabilities in the future? doctors are especially worried about the impact of heart damage in patients since tissue death and storing there is permanence and poses lifelong health issues will obviously only know the long term effects of covert 19, all survivors when much more time has passed. but there are already indicators that those effects will be significant. the doctor who treated british prime minister boris johnson last spring, paul, the disease this generation's polio. it's

a sobering prediction that implies that he at least expects long term disability related to covert 19 to brokaw ahmed and lots of other experts agree with them. i've been fizzling for any other developments on the virus. go to our web site, www dot com slash
