maxine that is michelle retreat he believes many others in india also prefer to wait and watch. and the low turnouts and lack of long queues attacks in mission centers seem to be proving him. india is lagging behind its saxon mission targets which could be riot the country has now made the vaccine available to everyone above the age of 45 another reason could be to count all vaccine based in a meeting with state leaders india's prime minister very into more the emphasized the need to talk to the east of vaccine doses. we must take the problem of lack of very serious. every back seem based it is also a waste of someone's right to vaccination we cannot destroy someone's rights. i mean putting it to provision the high rates of vaccines being wasted part of the problem lies in the parish ability of the vaccines each vaccine vial has 10 doses

and once opened they must be used up within 4 hours if 10 people do not show up within that period. the remaining doses must be discarded. maximization centers like this one see there are simple bees to counter based we only open the bio when we have been waiting to be vaccinated as some people call difference so we call those who did this to get a vaccine that we would make sure we have enough. people under $45.00 and not officially eligible for inoculation opinions are divided on whether they would take the job vendetta incomes. people might each can't keep waiting for the vaccine we can also get covered we should all get vaccinated as soon as possible but. we are young and i'm going 5 i'm fit so there's no need to go to work. once my is comes into that because they are different get me going and. for now the

government is hoping for a big surge in the number of vaccinations and has put its exports on hold a stop raise indeed infections me just cause a shift in gear in india's vaccines. father reported she joins us now from delhi. does india even have enough doses to ramp up vaccinations even more. the indian government has repeatedly emphasized that they have not completely vaccinate each individual is it in japan and at this point it is everyone about the age of 40 pray in india and then maybe he didn't do the scheme by the fact that india has its exports as well as donations all the orcs flood astra zeneca vaccine on board and this is a vaccine which can get as ordered be exported or donated millions of dollars as of

and this is why the team that they must put this is the case for them who would do it to meet sure that enough indians get that needed somebody to geneology it there have been some reports coming in that there has been slightly better done out amongst people about 45 and only edition of the joint for the government has said that all public and private vaccination centers much to leave open not all of these true leave turn alternatives including politics. so what has led to the recent increase in cases india is seeing at the moment though how did all the usual suspects are not taking enough because that are gathering strictures travelling more so there is mobility overall and all of these things run counter to quell the distortions of course but all of this was also true in family and the average cost in factory workers i don't trust cows and bloodying yesterday and yes it was 17000

cases so some other children that have come up by john discharged if that didn't you could have something to do with it that cost spending good that have been found a standard 100 happened detected in india but perhaps it is an undetected spread which is causing this stops why you cannot. have international implications tell us about that mr. most schools talk of how the last 2 months in doubt it's almost an excessively as you would expect. program was a back seat which means that seen a friendship and we did it tens of tens of millions or do this or didn't do when he did by the country however the fact that doing that nobody wanted is having an international impact and has already been consumers actually on constant collaboration what are some line tools as to what are countries i just call that put example enabling me but i started exactly the same journey in general even when

we in don't need to do what is back and you know it went on to order 2000000 more than decent oshawa not so they're not evil and you let the boys do it was an out of the vaccination trade lives on there not sure when did we get the 2nd north so it seems the flu want to use up once in the us though it is not a good tool to machination drugs off. minister just in delhi thank you. india ma deposed leader aung san suu kyi has been charged with violating a colonial era secrets role the un special envoy has warned of a possible civil war as clashes between the army and pro-democracy activists intensified crowds have gathered every day since the army seems part 2 months ago security forces have killed more than 500 government opponents thousands more have fled to neighboring thailand. and more we are joined by journalist dave corner

from kuala lumpur malaysia dave sochi 3 of her deposed cabinet members as well as an australian advisor all charged with violating the official secrets lol what do you make of that. yes so them as well as on some suchi to well this is a colonial era law and the way these clearly are laws in myanmar 30 written a way that are so broad and it's so vague that you can twist and turn them to make just about anything a file ation and that's you know we don't know the specifics of what she allegedly did here that would lead to these charges or same goes for all of them but they can clone our laws are in to make it easy to make almost anything a violation and look she was charged a week ago according to her chief lawyer and her chief lawyer just found out about it 2 days ago so it just shows you how ridiculous the system is a man on b.m.r. does not have an independent judiciary so the military in the end can bend and twist things to get the result that they want. a u.n.

envoy has warned that many may be on the brink of a civil war is that serious. when you look at how the situation has deteriorated during the past few weeks the massive uptick in violence the security forces attacks largely on unarmed civilians. now we may see more on death and groups potentially getting involved in the fight and different fronts the fact that students and office workers from the main cities have been going to the jungles to get a sense a crash courses in guerrilla warfare all this just shows you that this really does have the potential to turn into a full blown civil war how quickly we get there is a little difficult to say but as this develops we could suddenly be looking at suit shortages. the public health care system in myanmar which even before the pandemic was greatly under resourced well now it's barely functioning that could get much worse. this could absolutely turn into

a complete humanitarian disaster and myanmar countries who just a couple years ago people were talking about the potential for well now we have to wonder if it's going to turn into a failed state before it does what would it take at this point to resolve this crisis is there any chance for talks a dialogue. there's still time but the countries that haven't taken the steps are take the steps necessary to do that so many haven't done that yet and time is running out if you look at the un security council well you seem strong steps being pushed from western countries u.s. u.k. france but to other countries that have veto power russia and china have not allowed any strong actually come out of the u.n. security council would either of those countries do anything individually china could make a difference here china's got some leverage here but china doesn't seem to have an interest in doing that they haven't shown that yet the association of southeast asian nations which is me m.r.

is a member of they could they could have some real impact here they generally have a policy of noninterference in each other's internal affairs but lately we're seeing stronger statements coming out of members such as singapore indonesia philippines malaysia thailand but they're going to have to really do more and they going to have to step up the pressure politically soon if it's going to make a difference. from kuala lumpur malaysia thank you very much for this as mine. let's take a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today because in hong kong has convicted 7 leading activists and politicians for taking part in anti-government protests they include veteran pro-democracy politician martin lee and media tycoon jimmy lai they face up to 5 years in prison the verdict is another blow to the flagging democracy movement or. pope francis has begun celebrating the christian holy week of easter b.'s a letter mass and sent peter's cathedral in rome the traditional foot washing

ceremony has been councils and other events of the weekend will be restricted. japan has cancelled a leg of the europe olympic torch relay in osaka this city is seeing a surge in infections the relays making its way across japan observers have been told not to share the tokyo olympics begin in july. the european union is coming under fire over its treatment of migrants for years now thousands of asylum seekers have been living in human conditions in greece 5 islands near the turkish coast are known as hotspots where refugees are housed in overcrowded accommodation most of the children cannot go to school that the e.u. says turkey should make the migrants take the migrants 5 year old agreement but critics say the deal is a human rights disaster sunda reports from the audience of lesbos. a prominent

guest at the e.u. says most notorious migration hotspots well here commissioner is a human suntour the mother overly camp in a guarded convoy earlier this week and journalists were given a rare opportunity to visit the nurse or parts of the overcrowded facility scenes of women exercising in the spring sun starkly contrast these pictures from last winter when residents had to hold on to their tents well the sea flooded their homes. we need djoko from the democratic republic of congo he tells us he has been here for 16 months we are living like animals without documents i've had my asylum interview already but haven't heard anything since this. feat we face. more than 13000 people are stuck in these hot spots in the north of gene islands as part of a system designed to help greece cope with high numbers of irregular arrivals as part of the e.u.'s 26000 migration deal with turkey greek authorities with the e.u.

support have to examine whether each person arriving here has a right to asylum those whose claims are rejected must return to turkey and as long as asylum seekers don't have an answer they can't leave the islands critics claim this model is simply not working creates a situation of deep injustice because people are kept in some cases for many years in the home. and the conditions are appalling they're really not effective and if we look at the courts of order to report on the hot spots for instance they show that extremely expensive and not serving the original purposes of rapid decision on cases instead of setting up appropriate infrastructure to deal with asylum cases in a swift manner 5 years on from when the deal was signed authorities are operating in emergency mode even you commissioner your own agrees this system has to change i don't want to have i would like to have proper reception facilities but people

should not stay for long and then have a better. system we need to europeanize migration issue and to stand by each other and not leave any member state or alone. the e.u. commission has proposed a new approach to asylum under which selma occasions would be processed within days of the blocks external borders but critics fear this might lead to a situation similar to what we're seeing today hot spots all over again. in france the national assembly has approved tough new measures aimed at slowing a surge of covert $1000.00 cases there including 3 weeks school shut down a ban on public alcohol consumption and a month long domestic travel prohibition opposition lawmakers boycotted the vote because i was in the restrictions incoherence the government is promising to speed up its vaccine drives nearly 60000 infections have been confirmed in the last day.

intensive care units in hospitals all over france are running out of free beds at this medical center an hour north of paris there i.c.u. is full and they've been forced to add temporary beds to cope. we feel this wave hitting us hard and we're hanging on people need to be warned that they should not gather we had a mother and her son die at the same time in 2 different intensive care rooms all because of a family gathering it's unbearable for us it's a very difficult situation to manage. spring weather has drawn people on to the streets despite the dramatic surge in covert 1000 cases. images like the medical experts to demand stricter measures and the government responded schools and nonessential shops will close and domestic travel is banned.

presently pleaded for corporation. in the coming months each one of us must make an extra effort this is what i ask of us collectively this evening. promised to increase the number of i.c.u. beds from the current 7000 to more than 10000. and to speed up the sluggish vaccination program across the country unlike his european neighbors didn't tighten restrictions when numbers dramatically increased in january. i think it's a good idea because something has to be done. because the situation in the hospitals . is very concerning specially for doctors so i think he had to do something. probably maybe not enough because people feel out during the day.

these measures should have been taken in january when it wasn't as sunny as now they should have anticipated this. this wouldn't be effective at all especially as the french are sick of all these contradictory measures regarding how far away from your home you're allowed to be or if you need a document or not. but. the latest lockdown will be in place for at least a month mccraw hopes to reopen some cultural venues even restaurants and cafes by mid may. it is considered one of the most effective covert 19 vaccines now scientists say that the genetic sequence behind madonna's revolutionary m r n a vaccine and share the code 'd with the world online for free stanford university

research is sequenced hasnt a drug by studying left over vaccine vials with permission from u.s. authorities m r n a is the key mechanism used in the vaccine it triggers the body's own cells to produce the protein needed to defeat the corona virus. c. it has been following this story for us i mean does this mean we can all start mixing our own vaccine at home. unfortunately not amiss in that way given where they posted this to get hub which is a place that has garnered attention for being a kind of hacktivists website where activists can post reverse engineering computer software codes that people can download it for free in the public good and so the scientists posted their code which is m.r. in a code of biological code not a computer code onto this website but m r n a is a complex biological product that can be downloaded like a computer program it involves huge supply chain and there's even some steps

involving nano particles that only a few 100 people in the world even know how to do let alone have the option to do that with the help of a big company like moderna so we're not going to see any home brewed vaccines in time soon to. unfortunately i'd be one of the 1st to try. what was behind this project then well the explanation was just a simple they said that this is a biological component that exists now in a pretty big part of the human population and they say researchers have a right to know what it looks like so they've found out what the code was using just left over material in the vaccine vials and post it online because they said in particular people who are researching coppa 19 should be able to distinguish between what m.r. earnest coming from the human body what is coming from a virus and then what is coming from this particular synthetic moderna in a sequence this sequence is it not mcdonough's intellectual property have they said anything in reaction well isn't it isn't it their intellectual property to created

but just to know what it is it's like if you took a microscope and you looked at a b.m.w. what are the components of the car so that's all these scientists did they said here's what we found this is how it's made but moderna has actually been pretty lax in going after copyright violations patent violations they've even the president of the company gave an interview and said that they're not going to go after patent violations and the scientists notified madame before they did this and there was no protest from the company. our reporter i mean steve thank you. and obviously other developments in the corona virus pandemic the world health organization has criticized europe's vaccine rollout as quote on except to be slow acceptably slow testing is underway in the chinese city of really need. an outbreak thora tease plan to solve all 210000 residents them and taiwan has launched asia's 1st travel bubble with the other to offer both islands were able to control the

virus locally passengers will have to take a test before boarding flights but will not have to quarantine. in the u.s. president joe biden has unveiled a 2 trillion dollar infrastructure plan biden called it a once in a generation investment that would allow the united states to outstrip china as the world's economic power. they react now. in 50 years people who would back and say this was in the. future. when i'm proposing is a one time capital investment of roughly 2 trillion dollars in america's future spread largely over 8 years. generated story job growth historic economic growth help businesses to computer create more revenue as well. of that stimulus package will modernize 32000 kilometers of roads and bridges half

a 1000000 new charging stations will also serve the growing number of electric vehicles and other amos to lure industry back from asia by investing in chip production for more on this ambitious plan i'm now joined by g.w. hosp on a bird seed in a spall in as they were republicans are calling the package at recipe for stagnation and decline why. well the republicans have immediately opposed the president's plan to if you're raising corporate taxes you know this comes only a few years after a president from traumatically to lower the corporate tax we have to keep that in mind because that was something the republicans shared on during his presidency so they are claiming that any gains in the economy over the last years will be lost

this will be the republicans message for the next several months but it is a legitimate question where will the money for this infrastructure plan come from. write for the administration they will rely on texas to fund these really bishes progressive projects so the white house wants to raise corporate taxes by around 7 to 8 percent 7 to 8 percent so they believe that the investment in green broad chinks will ultimately lead the economy in the right direction and it will help provide jobs to woolner of all communities that still rely on the fossil fuel industry to keep them employed this is also really a crucial part of this whole plan so republicans not in favor of this plan how much of this stimulus package can biden actually push through without republican

support how can he get to get them on his side and. that's a very important question biden has already said that he will bring republicans to the wind tell us to listen to their proposals. the reality is that republicans oppose the president's plan and won't get onboard no matter what biden offers they will not accept raising corporate taxes or funding of green projects that phase out fossil fuels so it is. really realistic that the president has to rely on his own party which will be another telling because there are many democrats who actually a poll is raising taxes by up to 8 percent w.'s washington bureau chief he has pulled out thank you notes. and she. has set a new world record on the all sarah salsas from spain land at the 1st ever double kick flip over a waterfall. starting with
