someone dies at someone reportedly was a brazilian doctor he was part of an oxford university vaccine trial group and is believed to have suffered fatal complications but they're sure it's safe to keep going following careful assessment of the skis in brazil there have been no concerns about safety of the clinical trial and the independent review in addition to the brazilian regulator have recommended that the trial should continue there is a race on a race for v vaccine that works that saves millions of lives and brings in billions of dollars and visits in clinical trial all things go wrong they have astra zeneca who is vaccine it is has already suspended trials last month after another patient developed a strange illness but the trials must go on clients awaiting brazil for example

whose president has said he wants the british vaccine in contrast to his own health ministry which wanted 46000000 doses of the chinese vaccine for my government any vaccine before being made available to the population must be scientifically proven by the health ministry and certified by the national health surveillance agency the brazilian people will not be guinea pigs for anyone there is no justification for a billionaire financial contribution to a drug that is not even parses testing phase given the above my decision is not to purchase the vaccine. but it is remarkable to people look at the same vaccine and see 2 different things one sees a lot of votes political capital the other person sees a panacea medicine for millions it isn't only orgy it isn't politics and it isn't the electoral process that saves it is the vaccine we don't want

president's career this is the same fellow told you this is going to end by easter last time is the same fellow who told you that don't worry we're going to end this by the summer we're about to go into a dark winter. i think it's going to be a very skeptical american public about taking a vaccine and it should be if the doctors tell us that we should take it i'll be the 1st in line to take it absolutely but if donald trump tells us i said to him that we've taken i'm not taking it it was clear from the get go that there would be a race for a vaccine what we didn't consider was how dirty it would be alledge simple thing a jab to save millions of lives would turn into a bit of free for all over origin and money name and profits the advantage and reelection let's just hope that efficiency and public health also get a little consideration we discussed the issue with mark owen and the director of
8:06 am
the crisis research institute in oxford he said that when it comes to vaccines you can't not talk business and politics the bigger problem all round is that creepiest attempts to develop vaccines for such dangerous diseases these are emergency measures being taken so there's obviously going to an element to greater risk anything that can reassure people that everything has been done in the open transparent which is probably the best policy the problem obviously is some extent that there are extra christian commercial mutilations from competing produces a pack seems now that they don't necessarily want real information that could be hopeful to rival the amazon or erupts in into production is overwhelming that's true this is where we do sit legitimization over this issue it's a bit but space race it's 6 years ago to get the 1st 2 facts to have a huge boost 'd their standing as country trends of what we are well. it was

partial. following the brutal murder of a history teacher in france social media is in the hot seat for failing to tackle hate speech on tuesday the government summoned representatives from some of the largest tech companies edging in to confront cyber islam ism here's artie's on how social media giants are in the spotlight yet again. it's hard to take stock in the wake of. beheading social media giants have come. from those who participated in the public lynching of this teacher there are videos that were posted on social networks are in a way responsible for what happened in the days leading up to the mood of the 47 year old teacher videos inciting hatred against him was shared on social media platforms so patty was also targeted by activists online in a hate campaign that went viral whipping up
8:08 am
a storm that frances anti terror prosecutor says it was based on lies. it is clear that the teacher was targeted in various ways way social media by these 2 men using a false interpretation of the facts some new party had filed a complaint to the police about the hate campaign but it was not enough to prevent his brutal murder the terrorists who killed him also use twitter to claim responsibility. for. patty it will mange online for 2 hours now have taken on not fight taking twitter to court accusing the social media giant of not doing enough to tackle hate speech online so what do people hey think social media giants doing their bit the things that are being posted the hatred are not normal. should be done to tackle that much more. it is very easy to
8:09 am
put all the blame on social media it is an instrument for people to use and it's up to a person to decide what is problematic or not. do you should block such course and there should be more people moderating are there and content social media giants have also been hauled in in front of the government with ministers calling for stricter rules the companies such as facebook google twitter and tick-tock have been asked to come up with concrete proposals about cyber islam isn't said to do dishes islamist ideology spread widely on social networks whole generation of young people are ready can i sit home alone in their rooms in front of their phones or computers france has already tried to combat hate speech online with the hour feel it's no thought specs of tackling hate speech could also be included in khan's new draft bill to fight separatism some argue it's not to morag elation it's needed
8:10 am
the problem lies with how it's being enforced social media giants have long been criticized for helping extremist groups recruit and radicalize people with high capturing content for some they can no longer be treated as a neutral hosts and dangerous content that can as francis seen recently lead to unspeakable crimes and it's now be treated as a priority. r.t. paris. french journalist alex jordan of author of a number of the claims books on terrorism believes it's up to the author or it is to take action. more should be done from the secret services i mean de france has a in a place called bread it will outside of the big ears or and this is where you you have to really make an effort into identifying the hate speech is the the operations in plays the demands of vengeance on this information travelling on
8:11 am
in cyberspace has to be controlled at that level for us i don't think the the social media companies can can can do much besides you know time to try and money to allay keywords and values postings that they will take of but it might be too late people download them they recycle them it's really complicate it has to be done at the ground level. if it 19 dodgy dealings and bully is in north korea just some of the topics donald trump and joe biden clashed over in the final presidential debate but those 2 were not the only ones in the spotlight because just 90 minutes before the event a film associate of biden's son hunter spoke out in a blockbuster interview ati's don't quarter takes us through the big moments but one of the main stars of the debate was definitely the scandalous elephant in the
8:12 am
room the topic of hunter biden sketchy overseas business dealings just last week we saw a bombshell report from the new york post claiming that the e-mails found on hunter biden's laptop proved that his father joe biden had been in the know about these dealing something that the former vice president has always denied and then just 90 minutes before the debate an x. business partner of hunter biden tony actually said that joe biden was lying through his teeth about this i've heard joe biden say that is never discussed business with hunter that is false 'd. i have firsthand knowledge about this because i directly dealt with the biden family including joe biden basically being accused of corruption he's being accused of receiving a lot of money from a ukrainian company called but the most important part of the scandal most interesting involves a now bankrupt chinese energy company that hunters business venture was allegedly collecting millions of dollars from every year now i also said that joe biden was
8:13 am
specifically mentioned in these e-mails as the big guy who was set up to have 10 percent of that business venture and that's interesting but it's also very interesting that right after the publication of this article and these e-mails social media giants like facebook and twitter immediately tried to block this information a lot of conservatives have come forward to call this an instance of political bias so naturally trump really tried to bring this to drive this point home and during the debates the e-mails so horrible even ills of the kind of money that you were raking in you and your family and joe you will vice president when some of this was happening and i think you owe an explanation to the american people if i did my job is complete i carried out u.s. policy not one single solitary thing was not a line not a single thing there are 50 former national intelligence folks who said that what
8:14 am
this she's accusing me of is a russian plan you mean the laptop is now another russia russia russia hoax and you got exactly what does this tell you exactly what is where he's going right up is russia yes i mean i should i want to stay on the issue of radio has to be kidding here we go again with the russia this wasn't the only point of contention throughout the debate though it's been a very bitter presidential race between biden and trump and neither could help themselves for more name calling if i thought you did a good job i would have never run anyone who's response to that should not remain as president of united. states of america they left us a mess what he's saying is a bunch of garbage this is a terrible thing it is then a phobic i think you call me a racist even a response if he isn't a phobic come on joe you could do better you said i hate i did show the tape put it on your website put it on one of the website the fact of the matter is you're lying you're all talk and no action give me a break now as for where we are right now in the presidential elections as of the
8:15 am
beginning of the debates already more than 46000000 americans had passed their ballots and both campaigns have already said that biden is actually has an advantage right now in terms of the popular vote but last time this didn't actually win the democrats the election so we will have to see how it pans out investigative journalist rick standing shared his thoughts on the debate saying that very little was actually said. you know if we look at the debates overall i mean there were only 2 debates and there was almost nothing on foreign policy there was nothing on issues of substance the u.s. occupations of brought the out of control military budget and the deficit this year is projected to be through 3 trillion dollars that's $9000000000.00 a day none of these issues are being are being addressed the d.m. 1st rocher that promised he was going to build by by reducing the wars abroad those
8:16 am

8:19 am
nothing on the scale that is going to have to be part of the future if companies decide to dispense with human labor which is something i don't want to see of course people are going to fall into 3 real groups there's going to be a i just the same with any massive job those that get it we just need to keep out of that why and let them go forward and create a lot of the wealth and create a lot of the new jobs that are going to be out those that could get it other people that could be retrained and we need to focus the skills and the retraining on how best we can require these people for the new reality and for the final group will never get it we need to provide some sort of support and we are not that good the create out on a much reasoning machine that are able to replace you all month poorly human and if you can imagine some of the decision that robots can take are very very basic yes they can work in manufacturing chain but yes they can working nodder sector where
