and eight o'clock this hospital be open to the patients of watson well broke in the south central area of los angeles county. what was put on the map not only in california but the but the nation of the world. in one thousand six hundred five because of the riots six days of rioting in a negro section of los angeles left behind scenes reminiscent of war torn city much of south central los angeles seem to be on fire up fire killing five point unemployment or education and things like a lack of health care and housing. the micro-loan commission said that the county must really have to. just think that we had a section of los angeles county. over a third of a million citizens without adequate hospital care when i transferred in m.l.k. more use to king. true hospital was. your facility it was

a hospital it was a trauma hospital trauma it was open which was actually a pretty state of the art trauma and i believe we were saying to him fifty. maybe even closer to fifty five fifty seven thousand a year in the main part a lot of times we would get the diabetic and coma who knew something was wrong but didn't have the means to go to the doctor's office. again that goes to the problem that there are no primary care facilities in the area. a few years ago the county last year said a lot of clinics are open for people to go walk in off the street and see clinics in the county and a few bad budget years a few years ago they closed those clinics private clinics are going to open up and take under insured or patients who can't pay.

you so you don't have papers yes you have papers just permission how is your sugar level it's one hundred twenty. no no it's four hundred that's very bad for your diabetes. you have an appointment with the pharmacy a week ago why didn't you go. i did go. and this is this is a free clinic the medicine is free you see me for free so why didn't you come you know this costs money. a lot of the patients here and all comply and they don't want to structure their never raise with structure never went to school you know never stuck with a layer you know covering it so check your sugar two to three times a week don't use more not every day this is very expensive clothes do not have insurance but this is where the money needs to go because the primary care why in

this diabetic we don't feel your heart attacks a leg cut off you know because if they don't treat it we see them on the streets and then two years later he ends up at l.a. county hospital you've got to treat it as if it cost five hundred thousand dollars . if you miss your next appointment or any other appointment you can find a new clinic oh yes if i miss the appointment i can come back you know what end. primary care nationally is a problem when it is and especially a problem here in los angeles county where do you go for primary care physicians first of all the country is not training enough for them.

so we have a possible candidate for the program. mr mayor has been identified as every one user has been to. at least six times within the one year period we want to care for also the care management part of it in order to maybe help her keep her out of that yard and having to come in ok to say mrs romero my name is. i work with a program called road to health care and to help the patient understand better how to use the medical system setting them out maybe. but if you are going to have

a case to a care giver who is going to communicate with the often. ok list them as though you were telling me how sometimes you have difficulty making appointments see ok so we are going to help you a little bit with that. they call me you know how can i help you know me and they didn't give me this mattson you do have to educate and empower patients to learn how to access care correctly and at the same time you can't do that if the system is not set up to be accessible if you're educating the patient to go down a road where the bridge is out and there's a fork in the road there's three different ways to go and you know which way to go that's not going to be very helpful in our vision is to improve access to care we want to give people access to the right care at the right time in the right place and we need to incentivize financially our primary care providers our physicians this is your family medicine doctor that you go see for a cold but also the person who's most likely to diagnose you if you have cancer.

and you know you have refills you know but they told me i shouldn't come back with al did prescription for the k y. and of course they wouldn't salad to me that's one thing we need to explain to the fish and i don't know the field. yes five years she's telling me that she gets that when somebody see they're going to take it on enough for myself. because you're pretty sure going for wellness will get together later for a lot of. birds go to the store. for the good news if you're in the market right now. let's hear that we are. there right now we are twenty eight. thirty recently in ok you guys are doing much better you're just about reach but margery's goal what do you want to have nailers resorts on scene within six minutes you guys are holding

down seven minutes flat. however the best it's ever been and it was six point one four zero zero zero. zero zero the super messenger here just give you the facts. i had a doctor call me from a hospital but we rescued get there of no and he called me one evening any tells me that they couldn't take any more patients and their emergency room so i asked him to explain exactly what he meant and he says we need to free our beds for our people and i said i will which people are your people the people that we're bringing them from is lower income areas are paying they don't have insurance they got to get treated they got to be seen. you know paying you can't function as a hospital and that's why we've lost in the hospitals an area in. in los angeles carol in the last just over five years we've had

a love and emergency rooms close and in most cases entire hospitals. if you give a map of the city and you put a little dot where the hospitals are and you put a dot we're all supposed were the yours and. wealthy british style it's best not to be right on. target. markets find. find out what's really happening to the global economy for a no holds barred look at the global financial headline news you need to cause a report on our. resistance politics what

a culture. is couldn't test. on its own. cultures of resistance on our team. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so for lengthly you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else and you hear or see some other part of it and realized everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm sorry welcome to the big picture .

the arab league is expected to call on the un to create a joint peacekeeping force for syria the group aims to meld pressure on president assad. policing agrees to gas into crowds of protesters running outside the parliament which is separate votes on more of the public sector accounts we go live analysis for you on the greek crisis very shortly here on r.t. . iran promises to reveal major advances in its nuclear program which it insists is for peaceful energy purposes by a long list of western sanctions imposed against it our top stories this hour.

with a look back at me past seven days and the latest developments this is the weekly on . the arab league is expected to call the u.n. security council to pass a resolution creating a joint peacekeeping force for syria the group also wants more international support for the opposition and hopes to further pressure on the regime to reports from cairo where the arab body is meeting. there are leaked reports and they say basically that the arab league will will call on tightening of sanctions on syria but they will also recall a stop for their mission in their observer mission to the country and most importantly they will ask for a un peacekeeping force to enter the country now all of this is happening in midst of reports of growing violence in the country when all of this also was washington

continues to stress the importance of severe and old ties with president assad they have assembled a sort of a sort of a coalition which they call friends of syria basically anybody who wants can ensure washington and its allies primarily france and the united kingdom and their calls for assad to step down and to hand power over to civil authority what is also important to mention is the fact that right now looks like it is actually going to be on the same side as as washington and its allies because the head of al qaida has just issued a statement saying that he supports the rebels the armed rebels in syria and he has also called on the muslims in the entire world to support syrian rebels as well russia has been repeatedly saying that syrians are the only people who can solve the situation in the country they have said the diplomatic solution is the only

possible solution and they are very vehemently against involving outside armed forces in this endeavor in fact they do support the previous plan by the arab league they do support the arab league observers mission their blood unfortunately russia did have a summer's ration as to whether or not the arab league observers were really quite all that successful as the morning during mission of that i believe was there and as the situation was involving everybody sort of the the government troops were pulling out of certain dollars or so. armed rebel groups. the. armed. russian delegation was in damascus earlier this week they have entered talks with president assad who seemed to be more than willing to start to start reforms in the

country in fact just on sunday. has announced that their new constitution is under way that there are talks being discussed he also said that he is willing to sit down for a dialogue with the syrian opposition primarily with the syrian national council unfortunately the syrian opposition isn't all that all that keen to enter any sort of negotiations with president assad so again the situation in syria remains quite tense as the arab league here in cairo is a looking to find a solution to this ever growing problem. with ongoing violence reports of growing casualties in syria hard to verify with even the u.n. stopping trying to estimate the body count but there are those who believe the figures are being manipulated to push a regime change agenda bennett has more. the syrian observatory for human rights syrian observatory for human rights the syrian observatory for human rights it's one of the most widely quoted sources of syrian casualty figures but it's not

always telling the truth for an ownership the syrian observatory for human rights is left several media outlets quoting false information as to rivals fight the same name the original group was hijacked by opposition activists to posting military deaths alongside civilian one that's both sides claim they're the official observatory this is the original site in arabic with an english version on facebook and this is the fake site launched in the center and mostly in english several foreign news outlets have assume they're one and the same thing quoting the fake sites casualty figures the consequence a very different perspective of the crisis the original cites latest figures showed just over five thousand one hundred civilian deaths against almost two thousand military casualties the rival site claims well over six and a half thousand civilians have been killed and barely six hundred troops

a difference many claim suggests this is a lot more than just a numbers game i don't think even the people using these figures are have any objectivity really they have an agenda a clear agenda is there just the fire by any means possible that assad regime is a brutal massacring regime and it needs to fall a soon as possible and we can see if the united nations security council when that human rights strategy for regime change doesn't work how annoyed western governments are how got arab league monitor the original observatory strictly opposes military intervention the man who hijacked it's name disagrees. used to translate at the real observatory he was fired after falsely claiming to be an official spokesman and using a live interview to call for a no fly zone. since then he's launched a smear campaign against the original group claiming they're the impostors as are we and these figures have been quoted by the b.b.c. c.n.n. and a.b.c.

australia the other groups say they tried to pass some political views censored by calling for no fly zone for international intervention and we made it clear i sit on their victory for human rights. original organization is that we are i guess an interventional we are against the no fly zone all we need is to stop the bloodshed in that is going on in syria as always and is group refused to speak on camera stating i cannot waste my time talking about this is the moment whilst people are dying in homs they're my priority right now he did refer us to another opposition group based in london and they too refused to comment on the ownership of the observatory but they did confirm that reporting military deaths was not in their interest it's not our position to report the casualties of. government troops the b.b.c. and the guardian had to withdraw material after falsely quoting as always the human

rights observatory the un stop counting the death toll claiming it's too difficult to keep track of but it's human rights chief also said five thousand civilian deaths should be enough to provoke international action the real observatory still documents the deaths civilian or otherwise but it may be too late for the numbers to matter either bennett are to london. to greece now where police are far to go and stun grenades into crowds of protesters who've throwing stones and four bombs at them there have been reports of several injuries during the scuffles outside parliament in athens lawmakers are debating a choice between tough new cuts or an imminent default which the country's prime minister says would lead to chaos the e.u. creditors want an unpopular new austerity bill passed in return. the one hundred thirty billion euro rescue package cabinet has cleared the plan but lost six ministers or deputies in the process and some coalition in peace and threatened to

vote against it if it does go ahead though fifteen thousand civil servants will lose their jobs and the minimum wage will be slashed thousands of greeks have been protesting against a deal for up we are let's now talk to investment adviser patrick young. because we're seeing here on our screens at the moment fels of come out in front of parliament to protest against these planned cuts we've seen more violent clashes there today do you think the great lawmakers will listen to what the people want all will they clear this new austerity package when you know a lot of people have been talking about the fact that greece is the country that first gave us democracy and of course it also gave us first of all that work for tragedy and also it give us that famous charm up eric victory where you basically won something but actually ultimately it wasn't worth it in the first place and that's where we sit today because actually i have no idea what's going to happen in the parliament per se of course we're looking at the richest parliamentarians in the whole of the european union these are people who are making way way in excess

of ten to fifteen thousand u.s. dollars per month for all of their expenses are in and ultimately what they do is not going to matter one iota because in every possible respect greek greece is not a tragedy and it is doomed the reason for this is a man who can get girls like that with a reasonable way that they are going to be able to implement whatever austerity they're talking about this weekend against such a backlash of public opinion and given the fact that we've got elections coming up and here and for anybody who reads the opinion polls they would make very very same good reading if you're one of the european union creditors because what we're talking about is the communists the hard left they're pulling thirty five percent of the existing people who are in the cabinet and stayed in the cabinet and of agreed to this austerity package that we're never going to see being implemented their polling low single figures. ultimately greek's is a tragedy it is all about to default and in fact regardless of what happens on the streets this weekend there's no way we can avert this tragedy unfortunately greece

about to default you say there's no question about it what are the implications not just for the greeks themselves but also for the eurozone the implications are quite enormous i mean bear in mind ok it may take until the elections till it happens but certainly it is not only a matter of time the implementing the implications for the euro zone are quite simply does greece try to state in the euro zone in which case it's going to be persona non-grata but not paying its debts or does it basically leave and could together its own currency whatever happens there the problem for the rest of the euro zone is that not only we have to basically prepared to defend the whole integrity of the euro and actually if you read what's been said behind the behind closed doors this week of the euro zone and indeed from the summit you can see there's a spirit that you know what we may have to do three so we may even have to end up ditching portugal from the euro zone but we're we have to defend nine is italy and

that's really going to fall on the shoulders of the technocrat mario monti and this is going to be our cataclysmic event during the course of at the latest april does the euro survive at the moment i think probably a shrunken euro it sixty forty it can do but ultimately we're going to see swinge in recession even worse of the recession read out of we've already been receiving for the course of this week through why do european union and that's bad for everybody in the world you talk of the mention or perhaps behind closed doors sentiments of ditching greece on purpose but is it probably more clear than that because we're actually not seeing a great deal of support from brussels are we they're withholding the bailout fund they're saying look you have got to meet these measures these measures they're questioning whether greece really can do you think that is a feat. within the top level of the eurozone officials that they would rather do without greece altogether well of course i mean we actually saw that this week

there was a pivotal moment earlier in the week needy crowe's she's a dutch woman european union commissioner and she's one of the people who's always had a huge political sense she understands what the people are feeling and she realizes that the people in northern europe aren't going to go any further with bailing out and her statement was absolutely incredible to paraphrase her it was very simple it was greece we love you we'd like you to be in the euro but you know what if you can't stay in that's not going to be really our problem and ultimately you're quite correct what's taken place at the summit on thursday evening was fascinating because actually all of a sudden not only were we discussing what the numbers are and what's the situation for the next be alive but actually somebody from the european union and indeed the german finance minister was amongst a while back and said hold on a second you're supposed to have actually privatized huge swathes of the the government sector by now if you haven't done this we need you to complete these deals before you're going to get more money look the truth is if you're trying to

sell something and you're trying to sell an asset particularly in a country like greece where the political situation is already charged it will be impossible to get those sold even by the time greek greece reaches the final point of default which is somewhere around march and one final thing on those numbers look the whole greek economy is a farce the whole numbers they're fiction we don't know what they are even this week we've already had fifteen or thirty billion extra might be needed from the next be allowed ultimately there are no other german pensioners who can't use their swimming bars and can't get into their libraries because the german government cut back to spend money on greece and that is no longer going to wash with the electorate and the european union late realize that and that's why we've got lots of what happens today regardless of what the vote is ultimate. within the next maybe eight weeks greece is going to be forced to default and that's going to be quite cataclysmic patrick young investment adviser joining us live there in poland

thank you for your thoughts always good to hear from you well still ahead here on r.t. a year since the toppling of a barack but instead of celebrations across egypt a general strike has people feel betrayed by the military rulers and want to change that still hasn't come. and realty politically active russians take the matter of election transparency into their own hands organizing the voters league. story still to come but first iran says it will soon reveal some major advances in its nuclear program speaking on the thirty third anniversary of the islamic revolution president ahmadinejad said terror and would never stop enriching uranium run insists its nuclear program is for peaceful energy purposes but united states and its allies the e.u. and israel suspect iran could be pursuing nuclear weapons piling up sanctions against iran but on the dinner jihad warns that europe's planned oil embargo will backfire spain one of the biggest consumers of iranian oil since the sanctions

would hurt it more than any other european state based journalist we go and your but i do believe that the embargo has been forced upon europe. what we're seeing here is not a decision that comes actually from european countries to spain never wanted to survive go to to be put in place this is something that comes externally from the united states pressure on the european union so it calls into question spain's tanami in making foreign policy decisions and he's not just to spain and italy also greece imports lots of oil from from europe from iran it could be hard hit in a way that would bring them bankrupt in the coming future that would be a complete disaster for the european union and for the euro and that can happen because of the political move and union actually had a very good. the relationship in terms of the economy and trade with iran it was retrieved. in the last twenty years the connection of that has been lost after the

iranian revolution and the situation was improving until we came to this new tension that has been in my view to a great extent artificially created. on the first anniversary of the ousting of former president hosni mubarak egypt's activists have called for a general strike to ramp up the pressure against the ruling military council they want me council to step down immediately saying they are blocking reforms the military said it would accept any ultimatum and will transfer power in june presidential elections are scheduled many people fear they will remain in power beyond this date carbines journalist bill true says egyptians have every right not to trust the military. people are unsure about whether they'll actually transfer. and so far the military the really minute you count so has yet to fulfill any of its promises that said since it came into power also just generally on the streets we're seeing massive human rights violations towards protesters people expressing their freedom of speech and we've seeing excessive use of tear gas.
