the 1st lessons learned by the recruits. that work americans that require a perfect physical health system. i'm sure you've all heard the saying there's a right way a wrong way and the army way. that i'm president obama. meeting president carter near the bank. run. model but prior to.

contact turned right in 150 with the farm found helicopter hanging on your every word it doesn't matter whether you're a man or a woman only that you're. putting. up. on psychedelic costs typesetting costs a lot of work it's totally it's just so. there was a waiting list for the navy over a year and i knew i didn't wait that long so i had a friend to me about the coast guard and i went to the coast guard and they said.

they could get me in within a month so said ok. i tried college and. i had. a good job but as endured and and east texas i bought my own little house and the military was something i always wondered do i come from military family i was always taught that it's every citizen's duty to join the military if you can you should and so i want to go ahead and join and start a career. i enjoy the air force i was 17 years old i had a boyfriend that encouraged me to go in so that's why he didn't give you permission to go. when i was in high school i was impressed with the marines but i had met a colonel that used to run around the truck after soccer practice and. you'd be perfect for the marine corps because you're really smart and that's what the marine corps needs the professionalism of the camaraderie everything about it inspired me

. after i graduated high school i left for orlando florida which was the 1st time i was ever on an airplane and a life. initially it was just wanting to go see the world because i'm from a really small town i had a college scholarship to go play basketball but i instead opted to go into the military. you know what i chose to do. i come from a long line of military when we had somebody from every generation on both sides of the family all the way to of revolutionary war i had served in the armed forces and i chose the marine corps because no one in my family had ever done that. ellos putting on a uniform every day and you know just getting out there and giving it my all and it's a very. proud feeling. that. i would have done the camp over

and over again it was create the camaraderie the discipline everything it taught you who i wanted to be that's what they taught you there. obviously was different taking a shower with different people all of a sudden. but just a great experience i was a sailor every single report on me was excellent grades i knew what i needed to do and i was a great team winner. i really enjoyed the whole challenge of it i got several different awards and. it was mainly men i love that i could blend in and keep up with the guys and work as hard as. i knew how do you want to challenge and education was talk not my senior year i was selected to be one of the

top 30 leadership positions by the company great officers there. after basic i went to the name of security for alaska i remember getting there you know issued a parka set up in my room and then he took me to the bar which was in our barracks and set down in a table were was me and about 10 other guys. and you know kind of felt like a piece of meat on a slab at that point and i never wanted to turn around and leave so much of my life that i couldn't. yeah yeah. i. did. i'm a corey december 17th of 2007 i was on watch when she got to the station and. blew me away when she walked in. please write.

ok thank you. the command told us that she was coming that there were some issues but we didn't none of the crew knew exactly what had happened and i didn't find out. for a long time. i was stationed in saginaw michigan. i was the only female in my section. i had a supervisor it got to the place where i get calls at 3 o'clock in the morning and he are telling me to come get him and i'm like i can i'm bad and he would then threaten me. i'd walk in from training and he'd be sleeping in my bed. when we went to one of the higher ups the chain of command they were all like his his drinking buddy and they told me just because i didn't like somebody they were going to switch me away from this guy. i was in the evening around taps and.

he don't lock the door and he'd come in and he had an erection and he tried to get me to touch him i took my right hand and i pushed him in the chest and started to yell for the other guys to kind of hear me. he hit me across. the left side of my face i remember. holding the closet thinking what just happened. to my face hurt so. when we went to the command about it me in this petty officer who saw my face. they just let it wait because they didn't want any kind of problems going on. a couple weeks later i needed the key to do my cleanup so i knocked on his door and he said ok yeah come on in here and here and i said no no i'm going to wait out here. and he screamed at me and he made me come in and he grabbed my own arm. the.

and he raped me and his birth. every thing came to a complete and the day that i was raped i got there in february by april i was drugged and raped for the 1st time i had like a cold or pneumonia like symptoms and so they sent me to get shut down and while i was waiting to be examined. and came in any help himself he said he was going to the bathroom he came into my room and and that's when he raped me the entire time i was screaming and yelling for help and for him to stop nobody came to the door nobody came to help me and maurice cure anything they made it very very clear.

that. if i said anything they were going to kill me. you know in then of course i didn't have anyone to go talk to because the people that were perpetrating me were the police. it was my 1st time ever and was had a tough time convincing myself that i'm still over. if this is happening to me you know i can only imagine surely i'm not the only one which i found out later going through the claims process that i wasn't. it's just after 3 am i see a shadow of a human head over my body next thing you know that i'm awake and like he's on top of me pushed my legs apart and put himself on top of me and start pulling at my shirt and i wake up and that he's on top of me. he's already

pitch. i was drugged i remember the sounds the smell. that is locked and loaded $45.00 at the base of my skull. engage the ball so that i knew there was around chambered all i could do was continue to concentrate on breathing slam my head against the concrete wall and very forcefully had sex with me and i just went to my tent pulled the sleeping bag over my head and cried myself to sleep so within the 2 week period. he raped me 5 times we got tested. i had tricked and. gonorrhea and done as president. 'd he did. me.

in 1991 in congressional testimony it was estimated that 200000 women had been sexually assaulted so far in the u.s. military if you take into account that women don't report because of the extreme retaliation and that was you know more than a decade ago i would say you could easily double that number and it's probably somewhere near about half a 1000000 women have now been sexually assaulted in the u.s. military. we go to work so straight home.

time of the time corporations repeat the same mantra sustainable. prize board. more sustainable. they claim their production is completely harmless. companies want us to feel good about buying their products while the damage is being done far away and this is just. more of the current. hers was prescribed in the last 3 to 4 months this is cracks

a tea. towel pram this is the next. i'm tired of taking all these men i just want the v.a. to fix my job. i was having the most horrible pain in my face so i went to the dentist because i thought it was just my teeth or something was wrong. doctor came in after the x. rays and. when he hit me in my face he dislocated my jaw and it's both my disc forward in my face i don't have any. where they should be in my face they told me i'd probably need a partial bone replacement for my bone it playing on my nerves for so long is starting to actually disintegrate. i've been on a soft diet for 5 years now. can eat. everything is potatoes chalo.

times. a lot of. times. that there was. my dad my brother prior navy in the army national guard and. in the family

in. was excited and completely just going and all my family was proud of me. as my biggest hero. told us of your own being taken care of and i guess that's one of the hard things that i have to accept because i told her that she would be. who's in february we got a call. one who is dying and he. rubbed his hand all over my entire body and. he said i own all of this. and i was absolutely scared didn't know what to do my dad. when the 1st thing she said was bad.

and. i said. what happened he said i was right. and you're a virgin. because. tributes. don't ever think you're. my main nerve in my spine and places and my hips are rotated. my title is director of military plans and personnel policy for the navy. we have specifically trained judge advocates our navy lawyers in our naval criminal investigative service those investigators are all specifically trained in sexual solved any report of a sexual assault is fully investigated in the united states navy they didn't take

care of it for a year and a half they were tracking down witnesses they had all these students that are. and they can walk them down and say hey you're only hold talking to statement and i didn't and i went through 3 investigators it was like ok i'm giving this case that's what it's sort of feel like i'm giving this case i'm going to take care of it oh well this is really want to really want to deal with it females would come up to their commanders or their and ceo's and say that they were either sexually assaulted or abused and i don't think it was taken seriously i think a lot of times a cursory investigation was done they were basically told to just suck it up a member bring in a young service member been brutally raped and bring him to see or command and try to make sure that this girl was taken care of properly and this idiot. the city. towards top kroeber spilt milk. the credibility of the witness was called into

account had the potential victim had she made claims like this in the past there was a lot of witch hunting going on i was ordered to advise a victim of her rights for false statement when i knew that she wasn't lying i was asked to bring her in advise her of her rights like a criminal and interrogate her for false statement until i got the truth out of her . what we hear again and again from soldiers who have been raped is that as bad as it was being raped what was as bad if not worse was to receive professional fratelli ation in their chosen career merely because they were raped when you report something. you better be prepared for the repercussions if a man gets accused of rape it's a setup the woman's life i could choose to report it but if i wasn't if you know if they found that what i was saying wasn't to be truthful than that i would be

reduced in rank you could lose your rate you could lose rank you could lose your school if you file a false report so. do you want to file a report. with the. everything in the 1st my friend ed to make me this sound leave me to 2 different times to my squad leader and he told me that there is nothing he can do about it doesn't have any proof they actually did charge me with adultery. i wasn't married he was they took me before make my hand the tank commander and he says you think this is funny and i said what do you mean his like a solid job like what do you mean and i go see the 3rd girl report rape this week even as they call in cahoots you think is the game.

right. ok and how are the usually 10. 39. 114 months when. the v.a. . mine is new. but we were there 1st and then. this goes everywhere with me.

and this goes everywhere with me. you always have protection with jesus but sometimes you need just a little bit more. to go. it was they c of course they. they ordered they ordered a back x. ray instead of that but if you're so make up. the shit they should know you should know what's wrong with me like read my stuff and you'll see that it's my face it's not my back it's not my legs my arms it's my need to prove i don't even know what your case is even if i don't even know why waste the gas money the trip anything it was completely a waste of time but a good veterans day right. it's a perfect way to spend. because

it was an isolated duty station they were in charge and we were just like cattle. it was the 1st time i was drugged and raped i was this room where some of my friends and family had like one or 2 drinks and when laid down it was like instantly i was not feeling well and came to having a pillow over my head in my friend. raping me. that went on repeatedly. most sex offenders are hunters just like any hunter they study their prey they study their movements we study the behaviors they study the environment. you have rapists that prey on other human beings they they stalk them they they wait until the victim is

that the most vulnerable point in time to perpetrate their crimes a lot of times a victim as somebody that the suspect is very familiar with and they're very aware of what's going on most sex offenders have this hidden persona that nobody ever sees except for the victim therefore when they're caught or if somebody reports people don't tend to believe that because they don't see the typical sex offender if it's an officer it's an officer that has had a bit chilly in the past preyed on and enlisted they would do it once they get away with it and then they think wow this was pretty easy i'm going to try to get and particularly for a savvy perpetrator to work within a relatively closed system like the military it becomes a prime. a target rich environment for a predator. what

a was discharged they moved to seattle or things got really bad. i started to lose everything. or is homeless. the addiction to selling drugs crack a guy. 40 percent of homeless female veterans have been raped while they were surfing they spit into such depression and it appears that they can't hold jobs they can hold their lives together and they end up on the streets when i 1st started training as a gemini and i look over and it was like the universe was like a gal. in my head i was like you are.

there are some special of our. wow for hair when we 1st started dating it was hard. the biggest hurdle was not taking p.t.s.d. personally it does get really stressful and sort of sad to have never known for you know before and you know it shows sort of in her in her prime now she is anxious and sad a lot of. going to go i'm going to go back even. if they come. up. and i times if i can for out do and stuff and you know michel be like check in like oh it's ok trina it's i have appreciative of it you know but it makes me really.

sad that here's this little 11 year old boy that's watching out for my well being. it hurts you know i wanted to go away. you know and it doesn't go away. he saw through it to police that he for good and he just needed other than the

human body. but on the better side of that the quicker this was sold that business for me just soon you do you sort of mean. i mean she must go i feel still east of korean missiles from the course for me which. is just for fun or for cultural the church. will settle into. compassion for those who do not that. we think he minds be soldier to peace off the boots he's wearing. to church so the soul looks like to believe the apostle opinion was with god on the show stuck with summarizing the place for just sort of us all the.

welcoming our viewers from around the world live from central london this is our to u.k. . the u.k. is housing secretary confirms coronavirus death toll figures have officially passed $30000.00 and says the government has no plans to lift the lockdown on a regional basis. the russian president warns there's no one single template for getting out of the coronavirus crisis will be getting reaction from moscow. the german chancellor announces steps to ease the lockdown measures across the country but says only the 1st phase of the pandemic is over we get reaction from berlin. and the british government is accused of using special crisis powers to have a key n.h.s. responsibilities to the private sector we have

a doctor campaigning against health care privatization. the u.k. coronavirus death toll officially hits 30000 as the government misses his target of 100000 daily tests for the 4th day in a row house and secretary says local communities will get help to recover but claims britain has no plans to lift the nationwide lockdown depending on the region . as the housing minister been saying. subsequently as we know the k. is now of the country in europe with the highest death toll and again a quite significantly higher number than we saw earlier in the week 649 people having suddenly lost their lives having tested positive for coded 90 takes the total to above. although of course there are

figures compiled for example by the office for national statistics the o n s which would suggest the real number is probably quite a bit higher today the briefing was front up by the housing secretary robert general can he was outlining the government plans to ease measures saying that that's what the government want to do but say that it might be some differences with regards to how regions approach that as we build up our infrastructure for testing and tracking and tracing in time it's required for us to make interventions in smaller micro communities where you're seeing the virus take hold again then that will be something that we consider as other countries around the world have done when they've implemented effective track and trace systems but that's quite different to making major changes to lock down measures in one part of the country

versus another are strong preference as it was at the beginning of the lockdown measures the whole country to move as one. so mr generate car also outlining some other measures that can be taken to help local communities local economies for example councils be given fundie so that they can extend support to small businesses of course we know that local authorities already being given funding to give up the 10000 pounds the smaller businesses but on the more wide a national scale we saw the prime minister for the 1st time going head to head up prime minister's questions against the labor leader. now mrs darwin took the prime minister to task over a number of issues including testing the p.p. but also on the fact that the death toll is now the highs. yesterday. tragically that at least 29427 people in the u.k.

have now lost their lives to this dreadful virus that's now the highest number in europe. it's the 2nd highest in the world that's not success or apparent success at this stage at this stage i don't think 3rd international comparisons and the data is is yet that to draw the conclusions that we want what i can tell you is that at every stage as we took the decisions that we did we were governed by one overriding principle and and that was to save lives and to protect our n.h.s. and i believe that of course there will be a time to look at what decisions we took and whether we could have taken different decisions mr speaker the argument that international comparisons can only be made when the government's been using slides like this for weeks to do international comparison just really doesn't hold water i'm afraid that many people concluding

that the answer my question is the u.k. was slow into lockdown slow on testing slow on tracing and slow on the supply of protective equipment. now a lot of the border in scotland you know the troops all pulled the 1st incident existence government they declared and published their exit plans for coming out so long for the rest of the united kingdom but mr didn't say that the situation is still too shy jock out of country to lift any of those restrictions in any significant way you know to model is going to government must formally consider whether to continue the current restrictions for another few weeks as i have indicated a progress wheel is still too fragile to immediately ease restrictions in any significant way but we are planning no use for ways in which we can gradually do so as soon as possible and more detail on that is set in the paper published yesterday if we all stick with it for

a bit longer we will i am sure see more progress and we will bring forward to the moment when some of these restrictions can start to be eased. now we heard of course today from robert generate the hour the secretary he has been accused of himself breaking a lockdown measures because he has visited his country house with the rest of his family but he's not the only one accused of doing that professor neil ferguson who is one of the or was one of them a government advisors with regards to that coded $98.00 approach and he's also had to face allegations of breaking the lock down because he has been revealed to been receiving visits from his married lover at home of more than one occasion and for that reason he has stood down from his position as a government advisor saying that he had made a serious error in judgment and of course mr ferguson was one of the maybe forces

who advocated the lock damaged in the 1st place and so for him to have broken them in such a way meant but his position was simply untenable. thank you very much indeed for that update experts infectious diseases professor keith nail told me that it's difficult to compare death tolls internationally as each country is different. i think we've done badly but i think we need to we're not comparing like with like apart from germany and russia we have the 3rd largest population in europe. and therefore you'd expect it to say number of cases but head of population occurred we would have more than france more than italy and certainly way more than spain the other thing is we have a very high population density and if you look at our figures it's the main conurbations with the rate of disease in london $2.00 to $3.00 times higher than the average for the rest of the country of the non-confirmation areas this is if

you look at what's happened in other countries france and spain both have big capitals in proportion to the standard population and they feed hit particularly hard in those parts in those 2 countries in those areas and your thoughts professor on easing the lockdown we are reading there is a chance of ask going through a 2nd peak a 2nd wave regardless so what should we be doing i think you need to be very clear i think it's very careful being a bit of a mathematician what we mean by a 2nd peak if we let the lock down relax it a little and then a little bit more and do it a little bit more than we should have done the cases for start going back up is that a 2nd peak or are we talking to the same levels that we got before we impose just after we imposed a lockdown because if we were to do just a 2nd peak based on a small increase in cases say from $100.00 a day to $120.00

a day that would be and that would be another peak if you really want to be technically mathematically correct on the other hand i think people would generally mean if it was to mean i get a large number of cases put in the n.h.s. under threat the good thing is we should be able to avoid that because we know what works we just would have to go back to the complete lockdown. the scottish national party is calling for opposition leaders to join forces and back a 2 year delay to the u.k.'s brics a transition period due to the corona virus pandemic s.n.p. leaders says is not the correct time to focus on the trade talks it is right that all of the political agenda is a paused as we deal with the priority of saving lives and protecting people's incomes in that context i believe now is the right moment to unite as opposition parties in westminster in seeking a 2 year extension to the brics a transition period trade talks between the e.u. and u.k. are meant to wrap up by december when the transition arrangement earns the

government has until june to request an extension but ministers insist there is no reason to do so but that's as cabinet office minister michael gove claims they may accept tariffs on goods in order to get a deal through with the e.u. something that the government has previously refused to do it is the case that we seek would be exposed but it is either a tariff 0 arrangement were it to be the case that the e.u. were to say you know what we don't we can give you that unless you sign up to a level playing field arrangements and we said ok we're not signing up we will have . regression coles is an agreement so you can be sure about our standards but if it is the case that we end up like with tariffs on a small number of goods we will regret bad we think there's a missed opportunity but there is the price that we have to pay then that we get former independent m.e.p. for the west midlands andrew curve thinks there's no reason for an extension if the

e.u. agrees to a canada style trade agreement. why i don't think it's been that in a fair way is because we're really asking for a similar to you to what's been implemented for others like canada. and so it's quite wrong for the e.u. to say well you can't have that because you're too close to us that's really poppycock illogical and highly damaging for the e.u. and highly damaging for us because what could happen is that we could end up with a crash out no dilatory and that's just simply reckless and if the u.k. not to ask for an extension to avoid that of course we should try and avoid a crash out but it takes 2 to tango and if the e.u. or be insistent on being unfair and acting in such a silly man by insisting on teaching us a lesson then there must be consequences but if that happens we need to be ready for it and be actually take it as an opportunity to invest took greater extent in the u.k.

industry in particular jobs that they were i'm sure that we have to consider the circumstances right now don't we know the e.u. know britain simply don't have enough resources to deal with this issue right now there's more than one thing to deal with it. i have to disagree with you that it doesn't take very much resources to say oh terry you carry it you can have the same deal as canada got to do it's ever so simple that the wording of the agreements already in place to be copied and duplicated over. let's take a look at the pandemic on a global scale and according to johns hopkins university which collects worldwide data there are now over 3 and a half 1000000 cases over 250000 have died and over a 1000001200000 have now recovered. it's funny and prime minister has hinted to italians may be able to go on a summer holiday this year as the country continues to gradually lift restrictions

. which is dead for an extortionist private equity job. recorded game changing record breaking losses as berkshire hathaway is holding company goes belly up. the russian president vladimir putin has warned that there is no one single template for getting out of the coronavirus lock down or he has the latest. it looks like that everything in russia is going to stay more or less launched the

same as it as it has been as it is for instance the russian president indeed has said that there will be no lifting no stunt legacy of any quarantine measures and in fact he stressed that there is no blanket solution that all regions just apply and lives whatever measures they had in place on the contrary he every government has to look into this specifics of their own regions and kathleen 'd sale of the strategy their strategy as to how to deal with covert 90 on that territories and those strategies need not lifting but on the contrary tightening the measures of the list rescue. but i would there is no one in a single template somewhere we have to adopt strict dimensions and they should be maintained but if you can sometimes maybe even more rigid sometimes they can be eased out but that can only be done with your close coordination with experts and health care professionals which taking into account the goal risk factors we should

not be getting ahead of ourselves any failure any misstep akin to that as back we may risk the lives of others we will be responsible that after we are highly responsible for any mistake that we know they can get that let's not forget about it is that you look at europe. well the thing is russia doesn't want to lose the progress that it has made in colditz enfolded 19 see this thing to understand about the situation here yes russia is the new coronavirus cases by about 10000 every day but compared to the total figures to the mortality rate is throw to the lowest specially if you compare the same biggest in the other countries so russian ones that to keep on going they want to save as many lives as false for instance more than solti just send all those diagnosed with all that 98 all showing any symptoms at all and they are not occupying most little beds instead they have the heated at

home while don't as well medics and focus all the efforts on saving those who are in that was in a bad condition those who are in critical conditions and that sort of an example as to how russia could be carefully lifting the aunty measures could be said by russian capital the most to amaze your case about it has announced that starting monday construction and industrial firms will be allowed to get back to stressing that no way does it need the lifting of the self isolation isolation policies were also russia's chief senates every doctor she approach. sent in a release line as to how russia might prove that it might start lifting are the might start nifty because the warranty measures when it decides that it is time to do so and step one is to allow people exercise outside step 2 is to gradually open the service industry in steps very steep reopen the parks and the

national parks and just the creation of areas this is a very simplified version of what she presented but the general outline is this but so far it doesn't look like russia is colognes to this point it doesn't look that russia is just there yet. german chancellor angela merkel has announced steps to ease the coronavirus lockdown measures in the country but says there's still a long way to go on these peter all of a has more well this statement from angola merkel came after she was in a much anticipated meeting with the 16 heads of the states that make up the german federal republic she said this the health care system and the country had function the way it should have done and well that the country had basically passed the 1st wave of the coronavirus if we are at a point where our goal of threatening the spread of the virus has been achieved and we have been able to protect our have

a system so it has been possible to discuss our degree of unfair the easing measure one. the very fast pace of the pandemic is over but we are still at the overall beginning of the pandemic and we still have a long fight against the virus ahead of us so what does this mean for people in germany what is going to change well one of the big things is that you're going to be able to start visiting people again with a limited access book to people are going to be able to come in and visit you also and perhaps one of the most important things that's going to be changing is with regard to those in care homes they're going to be allowed to have designated visitors where beforehand that was a possible social distancing will be maintained at least until june the 5th it was reported by the chancellor going to that $1.00 need to distance 8 detailed draft on all the reopening says currently being drop but some of the ones that we know that are coming up include the german bund as league or football will be coming back

albeit with no funds in attendance were should expect that to be for those games to be kicking off before the end of this month no universities will be starting just yet but some schools will start to return theatres cinemas and concert halls they have a plan in motion for getting them open as well and when it comes to restaurants and cafes it will be up to the individual states in germany to decide when they're ready and in what way they're ready to open those large public events though they're not going to be opening until at least organist but this isn't just a throwing open of the doors of germany and back to normal back to business i'm glad merkel has been very cautious about doing just start and reticence about making moves that could lead to a 2nd wave in the country and that is why written into all of this that's come out on wednesday is an emergency brake if cases of covert 19 rise to 50

reassurance today that there will be no cliff edge to the scheme i'm working as we speak to figure out of the most effective way to wind down the scheme and ease people back into work in a measured way as some scenarios have suggested we are potentially spending as much on the furlough scheme as you do on the n.h.s. for example now clearly that is not a sustainable situation currently the scheme supports the wages of $6300000.00 employees across the country now that's nearly a quarter of britain's private sector workforce that means that over 50 percent of the adult population is now funded by the taxpayer and the crisis is also resulted in more than 1800000 new claims for universal credit. well with the cost of the bailout mounting richie's sooner because reportedly refused to rule not a 20 percent cut in the furrows subsidy from 80 percent to 60 and encourage employers to pay the difference. the government has been accused of allowing

a privatized power grab of key n.h.s. duties using the pandemic as cover it comes as n.h.s. trusts are told by the public health to stop buying their own equipment which will now be distributed centrally special powers allow ministers to leapfrog the months long tendering process to award contracts without competition the latest contract to supply $15000.00 call handlers for the track and trace operation is likely to go to circa meanwhile deloitte has overseen drive-in testing centers in hard serco g 4 s. and boots to run them to the it has also been advising whitehall on the centralised delivery of p.p.a. while london's not to go to hospitals or contracts awarded to cape p.m.g. with security provided by g 4 s. labor shadow minister rachel reeves said the increased role of the private sector was taking power away from those closest to the pandemic. the government must not

allow the current crisis to be used as cover to extend the creeping privatisation of the n.h.s. the process to the management and purchase of medical supplies must be open transparent and subject to full scrutiny dillo its track record of delivering p. p. e. to the front line since this virus began is not one of success and taking more decision making authority from n.h.s. manages and local authorities shifts power further from the front line the government says the emergency powers bella time limited and necessary to respond effects effectively to the epidemic it added that the changes are to ease the burden on frontline n.h.s. and adult social care still. co-chair of people n.h.s. public talk to jordan pontus told me earlier that the belt sourcing of health duties during the crisis had been less than satisfactory. just now we're seeing liberal tree testing facilities here is. our interest them selves keep the

procurement and distribution and the large 90 gal hospitals for all contracts being handed out to private companies and this is the time to be strengthening the n.h.s. as a public service rather than straight money or the private sector but despite trying to strengthen a chest which of course is under huge pressure at the moment should we not consider the fact that this is a time of crisis and and these a lot resourceful companies that have the ability to react quickly to to such big projects. well the experience seems to be that they they don't do a very good job i mean the procurement p. by law it is being heavily criticised as they seem to be trying to source kit from china or all of them making use of local industry the

virus testing sentences as soon as they start sit there were complaints about samples going missing and results not coming back as well of course so the way. it's. very spread out making access for health workers extremely difficult or impossible in many cases and similarly with treat testing with 3 large. tree testing sites complete bypassing 44 n.h.s. look or a truce which you know what you're already doing tests ok the supported next. seek doctors in the n.h.s. are protesting after being removed from their shifts for refusing to shave their beards according to the sikh doctors' association at least 5 working on the frontline were removed after failing tests for face masks they were deemed to be at

risk group due to ill fitting p.p. increasing the danger of being infected when there are no official guidelines insisting doc to shave their beards but the n.h.s. employer website says the beard and facial hair pose a problem when fitting a face mosques is stuff they want to shave their beards they have the option to switch their shifts to normal clinical areas founder of british sikh nurses who told me that there's got to be abundance between ethics and patient care. well code 19 the particular marks that we're talking about is the effort 83 which is a respiratory respirator marks you know doctors and they know it's the pollen because it's most effectively when it's it knocks tightly to the skin so really it's the same your binocs the show you go to actually you know where that smart which goes against the tenets of the religion sikh religion i don't know you know sikhs some snakes we choose to go ahead and keep on cut as well which is part of

you know our religion which we can't get away from force of course one respects the religious aspect but it's all this is all about help p.p. if it's got nothing to do with religion. it well it's been about 20 to be honest i mean in terms of pay being your thinking about control interests the patients and staff and safety as far as possible and spreading the infection and it's pandemic care as well but it's also about maintaining the individual respect and dignity of that doctor or nurse and showing that it's no discriminatory practices in workplaces well. you know doctors and nurses were bound by our code departments to care for the needs of patients but this in this case you know it's a question mark of ethics not plays a major part whether you know seat doctors or nurses should remove being financed to do so and really to be honest it's a no brainer to turn around and say i actually see 6 refused point of instruction

and that's all for this or our colleagues at r.t. america will take over at the top of the hour from one of us here what's been stuck thanks for watching and goodbye. from. the underline nearer to it some call it a myth of american foreign policy. is the country's exceptional position on the world stage this is the hot arneson consensus alive or the reality is very different the global pandemic has demonstrated the u.s. should focus on its own exceptional. is your media a reflection of reality. in

a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation for community. are you going the right way or are you being that. direct. what is true what is faith. in a world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. for a mate in the shallowest. if we have something like she's taken in the whole of coast coming up we'll take arms . to try to defeat and. relieve the loose i mean no.
