7:02 am
19 it's a delay when m.r.i.'s and c.t. scans and so early june my would think visit to the hospital a doctor. looked at my notes and said hey you've been you've been her so much times it's got to be something wrong with you. i'm going to schedule you m.r.i. some more i was a little bit hurt that he told me trying always he could schedule me a m.r.i. but i begged him as the months to get an m.r.i. to get a scan doctors told me if i would have got my scan. few months earlier then my prognosis would have been a lot better. my prognosis is about 10 percent and less than 10 percent i was so why will. latine make you

7:04 am
and i would have been a primary team and i wouldn't spread and they could have been able to operate on the primary tumor and get it auto and i would have been on route to recovery patients like my so should be better to concur of d.v. this could be at 19 as a smokescreen not to take cruel patients and you leave. cancer patients which cancer kills more people and coo in 1000 each year and i don't know why. i kind of blame you who the but i cannot blame the n.h.s. because the did have very bad mental patients i just wish that it would have been a better system of diagnosing it and getting in touch in an early save in law. let's just bring you up with an update on the global corona virus figures now
7:05 am
almost 12000000 people have been infected worldwide with more than half a 1000000 dying by still little fun of the pandemic easing off while there are increasing phase of a 2nd wave meanwhile in brazil which is the world's 2nd hardest hit country the president also noro has revealed taste tested positive for the virus however he claims he is feeling fine and will not reconsider his stance on the pandemic the head of state famously referred to the virus as the little flu he's drawn shop criticism for downplaying the impact of covert 19 on the country despite having the 2nd highest number of cases and deaths in the world after the us the president has continuously resisted imposing lockdowns and restrictions saying they would have a more devastating impact on the virus itself i mean while sentiment against anti covert measures is still boiling in some countries.
7:06 am
the protests in the serbian capital turned violent when demonstrators tried to storm the national assembly police tear gassed protesters there were reports of several injuries and directed over a decision to reintroduce lockdown measures after figures showed a surge in covert cases a curfew is expected to come into force on friday evening and run through to monday morning meanwhile in tel aviv dozens took to the streets on monday to denounce the passing of a new anti coronavirus bill that allows the israeli government to use any measures to combat the spread of covert 19 without the parliament's approval critics claim it's a move towards dictatorship long the prime minister to use the pandemic to ban protests . or trials are underway globally in the race to find a vaccine for the corona virus but even if scientists discover an effective cure is themes there are plenty of people who won't be queuing up to take it peter all of our explains. the hunt for a coronavirus vaccine is one of if not the great scientific searches of our time
7:07 am
but there are those who don't want to see a vaccine found and wouldn't accept one if it was here in germany which was swift to tackle the initial wave of covert 19 coronavirus skeptics have been demonstrating for months. now. the latest polling shows more than a 3rd of germans would reject and mandatory vaccination against covert knighting these concerns continue to exist despite mandatory vaccination being on the cards the government here has said again and again that when a vaccine becomes available it won't be compulsory if. the government is accused of
7:08 am
secretly plotting to introduce mandatory vaccination i want to repeat the chancery said yesterday it will be no obligatory banks nation against the coronavirus at the same time germany is now facing a lack of u.s. supplies of rendez if you're an antiviral drug used to treat coronavirus patients the german health minister has pressed on the manufacturers to get shipments to europe using access to e.u. markets as a stick and. we don't have a huge inventory now we only have a few 100 doses i expect an international company like gilliard to understand that you can't just cut access to the e.u. markets and high prices for other products and also expect supplies to europe and the european union in the united kingdom the anti vax the porters have a strong foothold as well a 3rd of brit said they would definitely not get a corona. the job or they were unsure about the vaccination it's not clear what
7:09 am
their views on antivirals are we asked londoners in what ways they're willing to protect themselves and during the pandemic some people refused to get their children vaccinated against all common sense i don't know that i would i be grateful at in fact thank you for sorts of things happen and i can't be happy to think that i haven't decided that much i need more information everyone should have it these days. i would so i'd want to read all the information 1st and work out how how it works and whether there was side effects from it but i think on the whole good side of the facts in comes available no politic to having to see probably probably want to be this to preserve it working backward because we're trying and it's thanks to vaccines that smallpox has been eradicated that means holes technics and polio aren't common killers in society social media has been blamed for the rise of the anti vax movement but the platforms themselves say they are actively
7:10 am
working to debunk false information about vaccines i report uncovered an industry undermining by being a school committee will be developed a consequence of social media companies both power and profit from misinformation we reduce vaccine misinformation in news feed we don't show it in search results or recommended to you on facebook or instagram we don't elaborate in ads and we connect people with authoritative information from recognized health experts coronaviruses like covert 19 offer to kill or tricky to develop a vaccine against but as long as science and fact are equated with conspiracy and feeling by some developing a vaccine will only be half the battle there are those that will have to be convinced that it's beneficial at all peter all over all. meanwhile in the central

7:17 am
a case announced it's resuming arms exports to saudi arabia despite admitting they're sometimes used in war crimes in yemen let's cross live to guess it now to cross the line in the national officer and deputy chair of the stop the war coalition welcome to the program. and her welcome to the program. bretton says dallas was 13 days happy at that enough a course in there in place to allow ourselves to saudi arabia could you give us a reaction to that place. well i mean it's really in conference decision. the united nations and other agencies around the world have said quite clearly that the situation in yemen. as a direct result of the saudi led intervention is the worst humanitarian catastrophe anywhere in the world. this is an outcome of a war that britain is supporting not britain is arming and has been since city
7:18 am
started in 250 exile this decision shows after disregard for the loss of life of india and it shows. contempt actually to public opinion in britain which is broadly against the mention against paul saw what saudi arabia is doing. and i also think it makes a complete joke out of the decision of the announcement on monday by the foreign office that the government was going to take the question of human rights more seriously and going to who's going to impose sanctions against regimes that are violating human rights saudi arabia isn't is one of the countries in the world which is mostly violating human rights both domestically and in terms of its 'd involvement in this war so it's a shocking decision and it's one that really needs to be challenged to really needs to be overturned urgently. now london is justified the move by saying any breaches
7:19 am
of international humanitarian law by saudi arabia are isolated incidents but how isolated incidents how many isolated incident incidents would it take to stop any sales do you think. well i mean i really don't understand. what lee's trust means by isolation instance i mean all the research all the serious reporting into what's going on in yemen is talking about a kind of. a catastrophe on the newest industrial scale which is a direct result of the war which is being led by saudi arabia which we are now once again. arming and you know when does it and that series of my slate in says become a kind of systemic problem who knows the fact of the matter is that research has shown that. about
7:20 am
a 3rd of the attacks that are taking place have targeted civilians tens of thousands of civilians have been killed in this war directly due to military intervention and a large part of this is. being a large part of those deaths are being caused by. blood on bartman and and very often this will be by british planes on top of that and also to factor in the kind of white repercussions because what the out what the war is doing is it's creating a problem that any aid 'd getting to the country it's devastated the infrastructure of yemen and created a situation where literally hundreds of thousands of people are on the brink of dying due to starvation and in which diseases right we've seen terrible outbreak of cholera and now a growing problem 'd with the corona virus which in these circumstances is just ripping through the population so i mean i don't understand what she could possibly
7:21 am
mean by the idea of there being isolated incidents what there is is a humanitarian catastrophe that is widely documented there is being directed. by these military intervention so. it makes no sense and i think what it shows is that the british government puts the profit of beyond's trade and puts its own power projection around the world for any other consideration recruiting the knots of life on an industrial scale and i think we really have to get a grip on reality here saudi arabia as i say is a serial violator of human rights. brewed domestically in a day in prison torture and execute political dissidents of whom collins on a regular basis yes but in and of sorry to interrupt
7:22 am
a person has announced this week it's sanctioning individuals from saudi arabia longer there's a human rights abuses but the u.k. itself has been accused by the un of torturing julian assange do you see hypocrisy here i see yes absolutely there's a proxy interest 'd certainly proxy in terms of the the approach to saudi arabia in particular i mean these weapons are being these arms sales involves tornado entire thin planes that are used regularly on the frontline of the bombardments in yemen but also there's a whole range of other equipment which will be being used to repress and to. suppress dissent and. any kind of opposition at home and you know the idea we really do have to get a grip on reality the idea that that can be anything. humanitary look out since sending weapons to a country like saudi arabia is quite frankly quite frankly
7:23 am
a joke and it isn't very very dark joe and you know it's it's something that we have to really step up the compiling of because it's like you know always the british government gets away with this it be a arms and so forth get away with this without there being any opposition it's a green light to really it means there's no regulation it means there's not an. oversight there's no accountability whatsoever and that's not a situation and it was won't be in the press 911 the stop the war coalition thank you for joining us on the program today. thanks very much. after 10 months of anti racist protests and demonstrations against the police in the u.s. the country is starting to theater spike in violent crimes can have more pain i've been looking at the weather that there's a connection. america is getting more violent the murder rate has increased by 16 percent and it's rising this recent june there were $205.00 shootings in new york
7:24 am
city making it the most deadly june in almost a quarter of a century other cities like chicago atlanta and philadelphia have seen a surge in violence. let him go to let him go. don't go please let him go. please let him go add another ingredient into the mix the ongoing pandemic and people are starting to think about ditching the urban centers and moving someplace safer not all of america is dangerous right now if you go to cities where there is rule of law and holding people accountable they a safe big cities with large populations
7:25 am
a dangerous right now because of systemically liberalism in some places are taking this increase in crime very seriously the state of georgia has declared a state of emergency due to the increasing murder rate amid the black lives matter protests peaceful protests were hijacked by criminals with a dangerous and destructive agenda now in this in georgians are being targeted shot and left for dead the slowest since must be stopped and order restored in our capital city this comes amid a barrage of calls to defund or disband the police to redirect their funds toward social services and reduce the police presence new york city's mayor bill de blasio has already agreed to a $1000000000.00 cut from the city police department $6000000000.00 budget all of this puts extra pressure on an demoralise. as the police many fear that in this app mystere the crime rates could spiral when used vilified by your police department
7:26 am
you're going to see crime increased and that is what has been happening in. the major cities in the united states chicago atlanta even birmingham of course new york city where the murder rate is now out of control they're already backing off their calls to defund the police the new catch phrases are now instead of defund the police you're hearing reimagining the police you're hearing reinventing the police the cost to defund the police were a childish fantasy of the democrat party police officers are out there trying to do their jobs are dealing with horrific. situations and in the larger cities you hear about oh we've got to get rid of guns and we have to call in social workers what we need to do is go back and be tough on crime and tough on criminals crime rates
