how is this going to work yes we have prepared for quite a while and it works the way that our customers they present the cars and documents in dover and then they they sell across and as they sell across the fence we offload the data to the french authorities that then that checks their customs declaration to everything and then they tell us who needs to go to check to customs check and who can just continue the journey into europe thank you very much as so that all this has been prepared of course and there are trucks taking goes through but about tens of trucks in the future will be checked and there is a particular parts of all these harbors here and ports are said to part with those that have to undergo checks will just have to sit and wait till till the customs us rubicam so he's talking there about the fact that there will be more checks and paperwork but what do you say the fact that there is a trade deal that that is a positive giving businesses on both sides more certainty now. of
12:04 pm
course there's more certainty because no finally and we know this deal was struck on christmas day so at the very very last moment there is more certainty of course because it least finally companies on both sides of the channel need to know what they know what they need to do and which papers they need to fill in and how all of this is going to work out big companies will not have that much problems like the car companies for instance honda in swindon they said they'd need as $350.00 trucks per day coming through here going back and forth for their parts you know they can organize this it's all the electronic then and they were going to have to undergo checks but mix loads. animals and food food stamps they will have more problems and it will of course not never again be as easy as it used to be in the past and are of course it's not just afraid to bracks it also means the end of the
12:05 pm
frame movement for people what does that actually mean in practice for people in the u.k. and you. in the press in practice it means of course they can still come through here we saw cars rolling off earlier and they come as tourists they can come as tourists like everybody else in the world people from the us a trail is anybody and but they will have to have fees if they want to stay longer than $90.00 days they can't work anymore in the european union they can't settle down here anymore and so it is a big change because many people live on both sides of the channel here they were just going back and forth all the time taking jobs here and there that is over and so they use their losing their rights is european citizens same of course goes for citizens if they want to move to britain now it's going to be very complicated and maybe impossible lots of paperwork so it is the start of
12:06 pm
a new life for both sides for the e.u. here on this side in france and for the british on the side of the channel here in the back of us did any of correspondent barbara vale reporting for us at the beginning of a new era there in dunkirk france. and let's take a look now at some other international stories german chancellor angela merkel has handed over the presidency to portugal germany's presidency ended on a december 31st in a video message markel wish to portugal every success and said that germany would a support portugal to the best of its ability the presidency rotates among member nations every 6 months. or days after buses were meant to drive them to a shelter a 1000 migrants are still stranded in a burned out camp in bosnia if you never left after protests from residents in the village where they were meant to be going the migrants are struggling to survive in freezing temperatures without heating or adequate clothing. and

microsoft says hackers recently access to some of the company's source code the tech giant assures customer data is safe and that it systems weren't used to attack others as part of a hacker campaign against a thousands of companies. pope francis has been absent from the traditional new year's eve thanksgiving prayer service this year due to back pain he was replaced by a cardinal who read the end of your prayer instead of another cardinal will lead friday mass in place of the pope who hasn't missed a major papal a vent in years. and countries around the world are rolling out a vaccination programs in an effort to stop the spread of the corona virus but many countries including the u.s. and germany are falling far behind projected roll out goals the vaccines are currently available require people to get 2 shots and of those come 3 weeks apart but now many experts say it would be better to stretch the waiting period between
12:08 pm
doses to 3 months that would allow more people with some resistance to the virus britain is the 1st country to announce that it will delay the time between the 1st and 2nd dose. for more i'm joined now by john at campo a medical teacher and author in a carlisle in northwest england happy new year to you thank you for joining us the british government religious started vaccination with the newly approved oxford astra zeneca vaccine on monday from the beginning they planned to delay the 2nd dose to get more people at least their 1st shots do you find this to be a good idea. yes very much so when they look back at the data from the clinical trials that were done on the oxford vaccine they found that 3 weeks after the 1st dose people had 64 percent protection against getting an infection which of course is great but they also found out that no one was hospitalized 3 weeks after the 1st dose of the oxford vaccine so this is protecting against severe disease and
12:09 pm
hospitalization unsubscribing death this is the really important thing because the health service at the moment in the u.k. is under severe strain it could be overwhelmed shortly so we need to keep people out of hospital and all the data should so so far is showing that one dose of the oxford vaccine will do just that what are the risks involved and because surely some people who've been promised a 2 vaccine regime who only get one will think well i'm not getting the full deal am i. that's right they're not getting the full deal but what we need to do is protect as many people as quickly as possible to prevent sids severe illness on people going to hospital and people dying now the immunity will be boosted when people have the 2nd dose of the oxford vaccine it will go up to perhaps 70 or 80 percent but the key thing the immunity will last for much longer but because we're in a state of national emergency it makes perfect sense to give as much coverage as possible starting with the people that are most vulnerable and stopping them getting sick
12:10 pm
and stopping them getting hospitalized i believe this is the absolutely the right thing to do at this time and astra zeneca has approval in the u.k. as a game changer i can we expect to see it also approved in the european union. well i really really hope so the european medicines agency as far as we know are not actively considering this at the moment and i really don't understand what's going on here that needs to be proactivity because europe has preordered 400000000 doses of the oxford astra zeneca vaccine and they need it desperately i really hope this is sorted out and in the meantime the british government has also advertised advocated the pfizer vaccine should be given as a single dose as well because that gives 52 percent protection against getting the infection and it looks like it gives 90 percent protection against getting severe disease and hospitalization so i think this is something the national origin is on the into and the international groupings need to think of really urgently to give
12:11 pm
one dose of the pfizer vaccine to be going on with and then give the 2nd dose within 3 months john campbell thank you very much there for us from carlisle in england. let's turn our attention now to some of the latest developments in the corona virus pandemic the world health organization has granted emergency use it to the german us developed by on tech pfizer vaccine this is likely to lead to more countries launching vaccination programs in the u.s. vaccinations have fallen short of the government's target for 2020 and less than $3000000.00 americans got the job instead of the plan to $20000000.00 by the end of the year meanwhile 3 quarters of england's population are now under the strictest level of pandemic restrictions the u.k. has seen in nearly 800-1000 deaths for 2 days running and in a sports news manchester united a striker edinson cavani has been banned for 3 matches after using a racist term on social media the striker from oregon i had
12:12 pm
a posted the message after he was congratulated for scoring a winning goal in november the money later deleted the post when he was told that the word is considered racist in spanish the company didn't contest the english football associations charge that his post was quote insulting and abusive but he said his comment was only meant to show affection. while many people couldn't wait to see the back of it and last night the world of bade farewell to 2020 and said welcome to 2021. there were the usual fireworks displays and light shows like here in new zealand that's pretty american story in berlin what with current of virus restrictions in places in many countries like germany people stayed at home such as in london a stern warning. her off her place later in the area there where others have gathered. correspondents around the world have been
