post i've talked about the light at the end of the tunnel when referring to roll out of the vaccine so this could be done why it's the only thing is that we don't know how long these tunnels to ease and the panda anything far from being over there still is some tough months ahead are going to die out and there is a process continuing process from people who have done to prove their handling of the panda knew by the government are from anti factors that being said to set up sharon's plan to good vaccinated and has mr say he was hopeful that the vaccine would be made available to the general public by me 2021 when i did i mean political correspondent thanks very much for that. meanwhile britain has become the 1st country in the world to authorize the coronavirus vaccine developed by astra zeneca and oxford university it's the 2nd vaccine to receive emergency

authorization from the u.k. or thorazine after the biotech pfizer jab trial data suggests the latest vaccine is less effective but easier to store and transport authorities say they plan to start rolling it out within days britain is struggling with a surge in virus cases that are threatening to overwhelm hospitals. i'm now joined by john campbell he's an independent health analyst an educator and joins us from colorado in the north of england dr campbell thanks for joining us this pandemic is hitting your country and so many others very hard at this time how important is this new vaccine really is but this new vaccine is the best news we've had in the pandemic it is going to change the situation entirely now in the united kingdom we're going to start a mass rollout of this vaccine from the 4th of january we're going to be vaccinating a 1000000 people a week from that point and that's certainly going to build up as the logistics and infrastructure develops and as well as that what we're going to do is we're going
12:06 pm
to give one dose of this vaccine and then wait for 3 months before we give the 2nd dose so that means an awful lot of people are going to start to get a fairly good level then unity straightaway without waiting for the 2nd dose but of course it also means we can vaccinate many more people so it really is going to change the situation in the united kingdom and in time in europe. but this this that saying this new one oxford astra zeneca vaccine is the 2nd but it was already saved in trials that it's not as effective as the bio on take size of one is it good enough. it certainly is good enough anything over 50 percent is going to be efficacious but we had the manager and director of pfizer making a press announcement just a few days ago saying the efficacy of this would just be as good as the pfizer in the middle of oxy now we don't have the scientific data or not yet but it's looking very promising and the key seems to be in the gap between the 2 doses so giving a longer gap between the 1st and the 2nd dose seems to increase the efficacy so
12:07 pm
a lower we have efficacy figures of like 62 percent 70 percent up to 90 percent depending on the dosing regime what he says is we're found the right formula and we should be up there with the others so we are expecting high levels of africa state so yes it is good enough and we believe this vaccine is safe as well and that's that may sound promising john carroll independent health analyst thank you. thank you. let's take a look at some other stories making headlines this hour the post breaks a trade deal between the european union and united kingdom has been formally ratified by be used top officials in brussels the 1200 page agreement is being flown to london for prime minister barak's johnson to sign and head of the u.k.'s complete departure from the block at midnight on thursday. rescuers have worked through the night looking for survivors of a major earthquake in central croatia it was the 2nd quake in 2 days to hit the

organization for migration who joins us from sarajevo thanks for joining us it's been a week since the leaper camp was shut down where all the people from the camp what kind of conditions are they facing now. well we have to groups we have the 1st group of about 900 people that as you pointed out spend a night in buses in the state of the nation to relocate them to but in a new location drawn each also halted due to local cultists and then we have here in anger of votes $500.00 people who have joined altars in schools under buildings and make sheep games and forests around b.s. and been a club or show each of the 2 towns closest to the we still have no solution for the people that are scouting to be sitting uscis to him and then his refugee council have been providing too many their insistence to these people doing and i say that they had no shortage of food food and water but obviously this cannot continue we
12:10 pm
cannot keep people in buses for about an incident being the situation as block politically as it was yesterday when your precious halt went on and what role is the e.u. taking in a situation. well the european union has made a lot of efforts to bring the different actors in both units across not to get it or to find a consensus as to where these markets accommodate the e.u. also is providing all the funding for the centers that are still in existence but of course at the end but they you can bring people together you can try to exert pressure or convince people that it's for us but it's the local politicians at the end they need to come together and decide where he's michael and it's going to the house that it's only a local decision that can bring it look at this point so what needs to happen to improve conditions for people that. well it is this is the sort of the solution from a place where you can see the single we need to establish one or 2 or 3 of the new
12:11 pm
have to do with the nation's interest in both you had to go into where we can house 900 people that are currently stuck in these buses and it's to make the 1400 people 1500 people squat in abandoned buildings and it's the day considerations there we just need to have the location decision by the authorities and i went and install our there's an european union stand ready to immediately start working to make any new center operational in a safe and secure environment like it's to be but that is the solution and that's has been exactly the problem that the political consensus or even political decisions taken east and subsequently blocked by i know of dorothy so unless we can block that and trying to go to see a solution in the scope of basis of people would be content to stay sleeping on site in terrible conditions. or i paid a vanda of from ireland thanks very much. thank you for having me.
