let me know. the number of. countries leadership. with infection rates increasing dramatically in other countries politicians are being. disrupting. the crisis. every day. our. critics accuse the u.k. government. officials.

the population and herd. people in london what they think about. you know people. stealing. independent inquiry into child sex abuse in the u.k. the internet is facilitating a sharp rise in behavior. just after midday here in the russian capital is your r.t. international from the team and myself you know neil welcome to the program. with scientists around the world racing to find ways of combat ing covert 19 reports of claim that the troubled ministration offered

a german company quote large sums of money for exclusive access to any vaccine it develops berlin has said however that any such deal is off the table the country's ministers are set to discuss the development are some stage today monday rocker's the if no takes a look at the alleged efforts to cash in on the crisis. in the land of the blind the one eyed man is king similarly in the land of the infected the man with the vaccine becomes a god the tubing in based company is researching a corona vaccine and the high pressure the government wants to secure the rights to it exclusively the german government is trying to prevent this there are only 2 reasons why anyone would want a monopoly on a vaccine the 1st is money it would take a truly miserable creature to try and profit from a cure that could save millions of lives would hate capitalism to control

over who gets vaccinated and if trump does get exclusive rights to a vaccine guess who'll be lost in the least for an injection. harsh economic sanctions imposed by the trumpet ministration have contributed to a shortage of test kits and medical supplies in the wrong school smocks and as i'm not promising they're all out of stock the situation is really a burden my family and i could be inspected at a meter in effect american sanctions against iran has by liz stick missile program also include face masks and coronavirus test kits even an iranian app to help people identify the symptoms of a corona virus infection was banned by google because sanctions would take venezuela miserable playground for american foreign policy. this is

a time to demand the president on ancrum criminal sanctions against venezuela so that venezuela can go into the market to buy everything it needs on a medical level to face this situation if anyone ever tells you that the purpose of sanctions is to change a government space here you go ahead and laugh in their face long and loud mass sanctions have one purpose to make life miserable for the entire population to make the public hurt and suffer to make them do anything to make the pain stop including overthrow their government. patients in hospitals don't even have water now imagine with an epidemic like this that reaches the conferees going to be left alone we have to be clear the plague has arrived here and the rules don't have any problems because they have the bunkers they have the clinics they have everything in all cubans most of whom have never known life without us sanctions being urged to make

their own face masks so how do you get mosques when there is a lack of medical supplies they're easy we can make them at home from materials such as cotton cloth linen their washable and we can carry cereal depending on the hours that we will be in public places. the end result has been the near collapse of health care systems in numerous countries tens of millions of people limited in the health care in medicine in essential it's basically tied hands and feet on the sacrificial altar of the corona virus pandemic and the eve god forbid trump does get exclusive rights to the vaccine you can bet your life savings it will come with strings attached the situation is taking its toll on politicians too with the sickness striking done many in the corridors of power the growing number of

lawmakers falling ill is causing concern over how effectively governments will be able to coordinate their responses to the outbreak. there are far more politicians who have been infected than you would have by statistical chance politicians are overrepresented in the number of people who have been diagnosed.

longer reactions we've been getting to the situation was from celebre. had slovenian philosopher a sly voices chick speaking about the pandemic he likened the crisis to a war time sonority on emphasized the need for meaningful international solidarity is in previous cases people were thinking just about isolation and so on and to date i sure hope we are becoming aware that we kept. in the unite that coordinate that weight we are all in the entire humanity in we eat in the same boat the big loser i think will be but he sadly nationality atheist and there won't be in our country to isolate itself until of course we need to get an inch and odette well for example

take europe we should act in a unite that do a shell pinkett job that week that great that mosques what they would eat what their bodies need and go on and so on i think that in this sense we should be shaped riyadh in the middle of that military operation we should be i'm not here appealing to some kind of abstract sense of. it keeping our interest in germany now. they may get an even stronger probably epidemic and go on and to want so it can think obviously that it is something that is demanded from us but if sadly if we think as a national know it. will get better we step back and reflect what this our mobile go through life how should we change it because we should be aware of why i don't think it's not grouch. let's go on and it will be

oh baby. in the fall yeah i did it the day me get out i did it. but i'm sure what it was. even when being told that it doesn't. it did not beat that same night of miley miley really now. change mode if you like. while many countries are implementing aggressive measures to contain coronavirus the british government has been sharply criticized over its perceived lack of action of particular concern to many people has been the suggestion that authorities will attempt to control the rate at which kobe $1000.00 spreads with a few developing widespread immunity amongst the population in terms of building up a unity within the u.k.

what i mean what sort of percentage of people need to have contracted the virus probably about 60 percent in britain the number of cases has exceeded 1335 people dead and as a result a petition has been launched calling for schools to be closed across the country the government has also stated it plans to ban large events after delaying on the decision initially additionally they u.k.'s health secretary has said people aged over 70 could be isolated for up to 4 months we asked people in london what they think about the government's high risk approach to tackling their pandemic. that's probably true if you take your view but i don't think that really describes how we best protect vulnerable populations you really can't afford to be nobody needs to be put at risk for a situation like this i can see the argument doing that but really i can also see the intakes say we're going to you know a host of people to get that virus to you if we make it and that really concerns

we've come down to die. which is to follow this but we've got to carry on living. overseas i don't say to fathers his age pekin to about 10 weeks tell him so that's when i will get really concerned what we don't know yet is full range of data and evidence that we would need to know whether or not we do become immune to this virus possibly. it's a right strategy possibly some wrong strategy we don't know but nobody seems to be giving us all the range of maybe once a year. yeah i saw the reaction in the british couple what mike tilsley is an associate professor of infectious disease modeling out of the u.k. the university of warrick he explained the thinking behind the government's approach. community is that when enough people have been following the virus then. the epidemic will eventually die out so

essentially what we're still trying to do is we're trying to control the outbreak so we're trying to put interventions that will delay the peak of the epidemic and also reduce the height of the epidemic to point to the certain number of people would be infected then it could no longer in fact he won't be equal because he sensually people had contacts and been infected and so it reduced to a low enough level that the epidemic would die out is the risk to we know that the over seventy's and particularly the eighty's. because they may have underlying health conditions are more risk some opiates that you want to protect those. those people in the population which is why these sorts of measures are being considered it's really important now that we keep these good hygiene practices that have been recommended we keep necessary isolation and quarantine policies. and the

crucial thing here is to reduce the demands on the health service to make sure that those people that really do need hospital cat have access to it. across there in the u.s. fears are growing. too slow to react to the spread of result the question of health care dominated the 1st debates of the democratic presidential contest will break down that story a little later in. the greek island of less balsa sliding deeper into crisis with the number of asylum seekers there are swelling and indeed opposition towards them growing the prospect of coronavirus tearing through the overcrowded morea camp is also causing tensions to flare reporting from there eventually. the greek island of less full size a 3 week conflict on its hands as europe's front line to the migrant crisis some

locals are taking more of a stance against the swelling numbers of refugees held up on the island and the ngos have been drawn into battle 2 reviews before people but not small couple of 100 they start blocking the streets because stopping cars that many n.g.o.s a bunch of that was the been the vans are there which stuffing their rental cars and there was just much in them between them throwing stones at them they can be put out between people we can go in and. chasing also but india's so they said a big thing with the station now of people that works and you know this is because they they. want to bust the message that n.g.o.s profit from human suffering finally we got the commission to talk in this part in a t.v. need we think it's a very good sign from the authorities that they made it possible to sign also to say that it's not just a group of patients that are going to take over. how things work on this island the

migrants remain in overcrowded facilities with lack of hygiene it's frankly living in terrible conditions in a desperate move to try to pursue some of them to go back home the e.u. is offering 2000 euros as bait but some of them have troubled souls far is that money really enough to make them go back if i go back to night yeah. so to me to tell you know we're not talking about 2 months so that would be. more would be 2000 euro says not enough i come to love my country for money i love because it wasn't safe there now if you protect it's. the 3rd front is the one created by a right wing groups we do not appreciate your picture a sick island turning into a giant migrant camp something. getting up assessment every day these people pass through our town without asking anyone they come and steal from us people here are

fed up that's why we decided to make these barricades we gather here as often as we can to prevent the refugees from entering the town and force them to take another route we have never been aggressive towards them and we have never clash with them on the contrary they come in gangs and try to argue with those for a spokeswoman put it on the main goal was to protect the village the soaps and banks. where do they want to pass through here and since the growth of the virus has been confirmed to mid to linny that's another reason to prevent them from entering here this additional struggle local speed very big price tourist season has become something of the past and businesses have even been forced to put them shutters for good and there is very much in our life here is horrible we were happier in the past they robbed us destroying our properties they even break into our houses most of the shops are closed and the refugees are the reason there are $25000.00 of them and only a 1000 of us. it. is the island that has been suffering the most

the morea camp is overcrowded with refugees i believe we all have to sit down and find a solution because we can't live like this anymore our town can't survive like this we are fed up. this island might be a tiny greek period is that the sun shines on your r.l. but down here on the ground it's clouded over fear uncertainty and anger vangelis absence from lesbos greece where r.t. . moving on now an independent inquiry into child sex abuse in the u.k. has followed the internet as facilitating a sharp rise in predatory behavior and the police are struggling to respond to the growing threat according to the report's findings 11 to 13 year olds are most at risk and say as many as $450.00 suspected paedophiles are arrested each mill stresses that the scale of abuse is likely to be considerably higher than the official figures show the inquiry also notes that many internet companies are

failing to provide adequate protection for youngsters using their services. you don't know where this image is really and out and that is an awful thing to think in that you defrost can just look online and get to get anyone to scan.

you know the media now is far more accessible i feel that while we are just now aware of it not that it's changed really. outraged. and i feel that we need really run the full changes to our whole criminal justice system we need a lot of police themselves not equipped. to deal with. the abuse issues the reports say is the british government needs to work with tech companies to kuntar online abuse it also say is that new tools are needed to prevent the posting of indecent images on the road as well as algorithms to detect illegal content it also wants schools to offer better guidance about how to stay safe alone for the more legislation may be proposed which would enable law

enforcement to tackle a problem where effectively. we can arrest our way out of the problem and we have to look at a far more holistic approach we are a saturation point. margaret all over again who expose the perhaps laying of the rochdale child abuse ring in 2012 agrees that the government needs to be working more closely with companies. even with the right training in the u.k. we've got a massive. deficit of police offices individual police officers are overwhelmed there are nazi north of them and it's down to the government to invest in the criminal justice system we need to address this root cause we need more police officers we need a real commitment to invest in dealing with this kind of crime but alongside that i have to say that the technical giants like google like microsoft like imus

and they have billions of pounds and legislation should make them culture beautiful and going to and she will that investment does the incentives to prevent the to files from destroyed in children's lives because that is not what is happening on a daily basis. now the 1st one on one debate in the race for the us democratic party's presidential nomination was held in washington d.c. on sunday night much of the discussion was between the front runner joe biden the self-styled democratic sources bernie sanders on the question of health care on whether the u.s. system is well placed the nerve to handle the covert 1000 crisis. with all due respect to medicare for all you have a single payer system in italy it doesn't work there we've got thousands of private insurance plans that is not a system that is prepared to provide health care to all people senator sanders

claimed coronavirus threat illustrates the country's need for a universal health care system joe biden for the most part focused his father on the trip administration accusing it of badly mishandling the pandemic the president quickly took to twitter to deliver his response i must say there was a very boring debate biden lied when he said i want to console szell security and medicare that's what the all said 4 years ago and nothing happened in fact i see social security and medicare i will not be counting but they will be careful of the number of coronavirus cases a spike dramatically in the us with 3800 infections recorded in 49 states saturday the house of representatives passed then emergency bill to toggle the crisis on mitigate its economic impact the legislation which is still to be approved by the senate would make coronavirus testing free for all citizens

suspected of having the illness it's also provides 2 weeks of paid sick leave as well as up to 3 months of family medical leave the measure however only applies to businesses with fewer than $500.00 employees heal up and explores the predicament currently faced by many american workers if the real. authorities here in the united states are emphasizing the importance of self isolation as coronavirus cases continue to rise however one problem facing american citizens is a lack of sick leave legislation only 12 of the 50 us states actually mandate that employers give paid sick leave other states have various regulations now amid the crisis some corporations have adjusted their policies for their own employees only of course and in addition to that many americans are just facing the choice of risk health or lose money think about the restaurant workers the people who prepare our food think about what you do if your child's school closes down for

a week for so many people taking a sick day means going without pay and even in some cases potentially losing your job but not everyone agrees this is unreasonable employees are struggling our employers are struggling and it's not a cure for covert $19.00 to put a big new expensive federal mandate on employers who are struggling in the middle of this matter u.s. politicians are now rushing to change laws but some see this not as a public health necessity but as the unrolling of a far left agenda unfortunately it appears at this hour that the speaker and house democrats in to chose to produce an idiot logical wish list that was not covert closely. now the democrats are quick to present themselves as the good guys in this scenario but they haven't always been on the same page for years bernie sanders has pushed for paid sick leave and other benefits for workers and been castigated as a socialist only under the current circumstances have democrats fully jumped on

board the debate about paid sick leave goes on but the clock is ticking the longer the debate goes on the more people will be affected. r.t. new york. we got the thoughts of new york based lawyer morny how. believes the new bill does not go far enough people need far more fine. assistance interesting in that i've been hearing not just really but people are really talking about other points aren't. dictions and also something called universal basic income so i think what i see is that people are looking not just for me really but for real transformative change. because i think with this plan that everybody should have through testing everybody should have true help their health care if you be here. and you know there is a plan to me or it's and it's something that i think now we're all seeing that something wasn't universal help poor and medicare. has to be implemented right

moral you know you'll see that people who do have money and are wealthy will be mediocre to earn or whether that's where i can go that are more income are going to help a lot lot you know a lot more problems. let's leave coronavirus to one side for a little while now and turn our attention to something completely different or a documentary about the iron pumping queen there's no. one else seems. just don't fall in. and. get to shape our just to get educated and energy trying to train and.

when so many find themselves worlds apart when she's to look for common ground. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy to sunday shouldn't let it be an arms race off and spearing dramatic bad to follow the only closely i'm going to exist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. and we're going to fulfill repeated promises oh politics to the people and promises you know we've all pots. you break pretty rough. cut.

pretty good. now you want to 1st crack that. no. long. haul 5 be cut.

so the last most logical to me is the meaning of life. what's going on within you besides you. and the channel plonker of what you really think with all of the so the british. people for their. own.
