coronavirus cases for a 2nd day in a row more than 330000 new infections were recorded in the past 24 hours on now more and more countries are closing their borders to travelers from india the spike in infections is a 2nd much more intense wave after infections dropped off in the winter months experts say new virus variants and recent super spreader gatherings have contributed to the latest surge. mourning their loved ones who died at this hospital not from covert 19 but from a fire that broke out while patients were sleeping the blaze was fueled by the oxygen so desperately needed to keep many covert 1000 patients alive more than a dozen people died after the intensive care unit was engulfed in a ball of fire. unfortunately they made it to go after quite a bit after unfortunately a major fire disaster happened at our hospital at about 3 am there was

a sudden spark from the air conditioner and since there was additional oxygen in the i.c.u. if and it was completely overwhelmed within 2 minutes you know management completely the problem. india has reached a breaking point hospitals are turning away patients supplies are running out queues are hours long at testing and vaccination sites many walk away empty handed . but we cannot be vaccinated out of it people are on one and a half i say things are not so good. volunteers are working around the clock to cremate and bury the dead. even if it is night we will try to finish the last body of father dave because you know much of the body soul. that is the reason if you want to finish all the all

and then go home. several countries have imposed travel restrictions on india to keep the new variant from also overwhelming them. once i know about some of the other stories making headlines around the world. of potential new malaria vaccine development the university of oxford has shown up to 77 percent efficiency in trials on babies in west africa well it could be a breakthrough in the fight against the mosquito borne disease which kills close to half a 1000000 people around the world every year. chancellor of germany has i'm going to go has defended lobbying for of payments company that collapsed just months later in one of germany's biggest fraud cases just americal faced 5 hours of questioning by lawmakers on friday they want to know why she continued to promote the german company abroad despite multiple allegations of wrongdoing. moscow says over 20 ships are back at their permanent black sea base after taking part in

military exercises near crimea russian troops have also begun pulling back a massive buildup of russian military close to the ukrainian border alarmed kiev and the international community. and jailed russian opposition leader alexina vali says he is ending his hunger strike the kremlin critic began the strike more than 3 weeks ago to demand proper medical care for loss of sensation in his legs and arms he was jailed after returning from germany where he sought treatment after being poisoned in russia with a rare nerve agent as doctors urged him this week to and 100 strike saying his very life was at risk. and we can go now to deal with correspondent emily share when she is in moscow for you what am i missing avani calling off his hunger strike a what more can you tell us. well it seems that the extent of on these demands

to see civilian doctors have been met in a post there was a new post on his instagram account seems to have been passing these posts on to his lawyers periodically and in that post he says that he was able to see doctors that he says he trusts twice now and that they have recommended that he calls off his hunger strike apparently according to the post they said that soon there may be nothing left to treat if he is if he doesn't stop his hunger strike but he has also demanded to see another doctor he's still complaining about numbness in his arms and legs so that demand goes forward and what this is all mean for his plight . well he's still obviously been in prison he was this week transferred to a different prison which has a medical ward tuberculosis ward actually his lawyers say that he still is

considered by the prison service to be a flight a flight risk so essentially he might you know flee the prison and that means that prison guards check on him periodically including at night which means that they are waking him every few hours the prison service itself has said that his health is satisfactory but it does according to his supporters there is still some risk to his health even now that he's called off the hunger strike he himself says that it will be difficult to come out of this hunger strike that will take 3 weeks as well according to his post and recently he's been complaining of this back pain that i mentioned but also according to recent blood tests he may be at risk for kidney failure or even heart failure so i think we have to watch this space and it does seem that he's still not out of the woods even now that he has stopped his hunger strike and how have people in russia where you are really your react to to this

story to this development. well i think it's worth pointing out that most russians or many russians at least still don't really know who are now viney is most people aren't necessarily following the story state t.v. doesn't report on it even though he has you know gained moral rectitude here i think recently with the poisoning last year with his return to russia and also his arrest more people do now know him but among his supporters i think many of those people will be now breathing a sigh of relief after all this week we saw big protests across the country calling for doctors to be able to see alexei nonviolently people were really worried at those protests that he could be dying some people were even on hunger strike with him over a 100 people across roth russia apparently were on hunger strike with him so i think those people will certainly be a very relieved at this announcement due to your correspondent reporting from

chatillon people have loved you and give you over to remember our dear. western powers and african nations leaned on the long ruling strongman as the linchpin and the international fight against islamist militants there but they could lose it even the battles that you led always had the goal of the fin in your country's territorial integrity the preservation of stability and peace and the fight for liberty security and justice. you lived as a soldier. you died as a soldier was it also done. human rights groups often pushed against what they called his repressive government but now the president's death bring stability in the country and to question france has its regional counterterrorism base in chad and is pressing for a peaceful transition of power while promising continued support to its former

the same guarantees. you're watching the daily news live from berlin stick with this rob watts is up next on the at the top of the hour. the final against the coronavirus 10 damage. has the rate of infection been developing what does the latest research say. information and context the coronavirus update nineteen's. on t w. grappling with such. expressed feelings i am not very creative yet but i would love to be considered an artist

mandate looking for new perspectives to do it and not be replaced by a previous camera doing things differently. come to the place where we reflect on society angst. kong teetotal. the world health organization says vaccine hesitancy is among the top. and threats to global health. skeptics around the world have taken to the streets to protest against code 19 jabs. half the french are hesitant about getting the shot. in germany it's a quarter of the population. that experts agree will only beat the virus with vaccines. well despite all the skepticism the bigger

problem has been getting enough doses but not in serbia it has such a vast surplus that they had been inoculated nonresidents still the abundance of vaccine doesn't help when many people just don't want it they don't use funny reports. i'm yes it is the next person in one's turn about 4000 doses are being administered here today at the biggest coffee vaccination center in subiaco the country has procured some 15000000 vaccines for a population of 7000000. serbia has more vaccines on offer than serbians to want them in fact there's a surplus of russia and all chinese and. other vaccines so the country had been inviting foreigners to take the japs the emphasis is on pad on the 9th of april the government decided to suspend the vaccination for a nurse on to food

a notice about 30000 had received a vaccine so far a lot of foreigners came back to now it's impossible because of the commission of the government so they need to be a resident here or get married here or something like that. for for now the announcement came after infection rates began rising again the government had apparently realised he needed to convince more of its own citizens to get a jap 1st at least one in 3 people in serbia believes to some extent in conspiracy theories that claim they are unsafe. the chip design equipment and he will see everyone who got the vaccine will soon die. we have you know what i think of it seen as not safe enough and that's why i don't want to get it to 2 days and that skepticism is also apparent on the great streets restaurants are food open and almost no one is wearing

a mask epidemiologist so don't buy the vinyl each says the government focused too much on positive news about procuring vaccines why not doing enough to actually stand the spread of the virus because of a popular dish that the government and our leader was following all of demonstrating that is here's more able than earlier on arrows and the other really there to provide what is needed and he ignores the fact that it's 1st in our society to educate people so far about 1200000 people have been fully vaccinated in subiaco according to official numbers a high percentage by comparison with other countries in europe but far from enough to spend time in an effort to increase immunizations the government has no storage focusing on its own citizens instead of foreigners if you could understand serbian you would be able to read the message on the side of this local bus it says get

vaccinated. let's talk about vaccines skepticism with rene nigeria college of physicians of philadelphia the fact we have a vaccine is a blessing why then all the nonbelievers. why the nonbelievers that's a really good question i guess it's part of human nature to question things around us to see risk in other people and assume that it's the same risk for us and so you know you're going to have a spectrum of people who absolutely believe in the science absolutely even vaccines and then you're going to have a on the other end people who will not get a vaccine no matter what you tell them or are you explain to them because they have this proceed risk of it no matter what they see i mean it's great to question things i'm a journalist i have to do it every day but that same skepticism is as old as the vaccine itself has there been a was there some sort of specific historical incident that had justify the skepticism not not one specific there's been

a serious several one throughout history right because you know the vaccine scientists who has been advancing for the last 200 years and now along the way there have been incidents that may or may not justify some of their feelings the most the most recent one was i mean explained phenomena with the h one n one vaccine in which people had markel epsy and we know that that happens to people who are predisposed to narcolepsy or exposed to a viral the disease and so whether or not they would have done it from the vaccine or from actually getting flu you know that that could happen in in the 1950 s. there was a fire incident here in the u.s. with the polio vaccine were a laboratory filter properly field oh you iris and ended up costing about 200 cases of paralysis from polio on what should have been an otherwise safe vaccine so yes along the way there's been incidents that have been amplified if you will by the end. something that happens very very often when in fact it's actually very rare

explain to our viewers how anti semitic conspiracy theories also play a role in the anti vacs movement. yeah so you know it's not just anti semitic but anti minority anti anybody who was marginalized through excluded and so you know throughout history jewish people have been persecuted and they have been the minority ethnic minority religious minority and so when it comes time to find somebody who is guilty for whatever else is a society in this case with vaccine reactions then the term too to those those conspiracy theories in more modern times you have to experience the theories about jewish people controlling bio bio security or controlling pharmaceutical companies and then well why don't you just make money to read out so one of the tropes of the semitism and not going not caring if you will about children getting hurt from the vaccine so it's a combination of historical factors of persecution of these kinds of groups combined with conspiracy theories and now in modern day so media where one small

lie can spread very very big can you also explain why in some countries it's the ethnic minorities that are especially skeptical about vaccines. yeah because you know you have the colonizers it right the western european powers even when spain spain in that case alone america england in the case of modern north america who have colonized. ethnic minority groups in foreign countries and in doing so have used used and abused in the united states we have the original sin of slavery and so you have a history of hundreds and hundreds of years of the authorities the government the dominant political force are dominant people abusing the minorities and so they see anything that comes their way as a mandate as something that they they must do for whatever reason they see it as yet another imposition on them by this whole colonial power or this abuse of

insulating power and so they get skeptical and in many cases there are some small instances in that justify it so for example in the united states puerto rico they had a they have an island there be a beautiful island that was bombarded by the u.s. navy for years and a lot of people in puerto rico are skeptical of the u.s. government because of that and other abuses that took place on their own island and so now when they are being told by the same government that to them to get a vaccine they're highly skeptical so rene give me the hard sell as a scientist how would you convince and he backs up. we found through science through research through surveys and through focus groups that the best way to get at somebody is by having one of their peers not somebody who's superior to them not somebody who is inferior not somebody who is smarter or more educated rich or whatever so many who is there appear at their level explain to them the benefits of

vaccination explain to them the side effects if any of getting a vaccine and we've seen it with the coven and that scene where we had a lot of skeptical people at 1st who are now turning turning around and wanting to actually never seen their peers their neighbors or friends getting the vaccine having a little bit of a side effect afterwards you know a little bit of a like illness for a day or so and getting much better and then also seeing that the that the people who are vaccinated are not becoming sick and they're not becoming part of outbreaks when the see that thrown their peers especially they change their minds and so that is one of the signs and evidence proving ways to get out somebody who is skeptical about vaccination i don't mind at all if a white means i get in line quicker than i did here a college of physicians of philadelphia thanks for being on the show today thank you for having. and for the last time this week here's our science correspondent derek williams with another viewer question about x.c. . i was fascinated

a few days ago my arm didn't touch and i didn't have any side effects is that normal. i talked a lot here about vaccine side effects so it's great to hear from someone who had none because that's actually really common i haven't been backs and it yet but among friends and family who have i'd say roughly half told me they didn't notice a thing afterwards although the statistics will vary from from vaccine to vaccine it looks like for most of them at least a 3rd of all recipients don't report even the mildest of side effects like like injection site pain or or a little bit of swelling there's no way to predict in advance exactly how you'll react but but experts say 2 factors clearly increase the likelihood that you'll feel some kind of discomfort after getting the shot the 1st is your

sex recent c.d.c. gate it shows that around 4 out of 5 reports of vaccine side effects have come from women with which doesn't come as a surprise really since that's also been observed in the past with many other types of vaccine a number of biological and and possibly even social reasons seem to contribute to that phenomenon the 2nd factor that plays a role is your age and younger people are a lot more likely to report side effects than those over 55 which is another result backed up by experience with past vaccines the theory they are is that. it's because the amused response in general declines with age so in a nutshell having few or no side effects after being vaccinated but isn't

particularly rare and apparently even less so if you're like me a man who's no longer a spring chicken. or mine i could get my next week thanks for watching i say. it. because.
