for all those running for the white former associates just ahead of thursday night's u.s. presidential debates accusing joe biden. of 1st hand knowledge about this because i directly dealt with the biden family including. just a few moments into a brand new day here in moscow it's the weekend saturday october the 24th are very warm welcome to this news hour on r t international. peru has decided not to buy doses of a coronavirus vaccine being developed by the british swedish firm. lima site as a lock of data from the company after the death of a trial volunteer a month in brazil reportedly a 28 year old doctor passed away after taking part in phase 3 trials run by astra

zeneca oxford university it's not known whether he received the actual drug or a placebo or senior correspondent because the of takes a closer look. there is always the risk with any vaccine any clinical trial that statistical improbability that point not one percent risk that 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 this case 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 are waiting 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 from 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 a new government will go to congress and to cool to ensure that the population has access to all vaccines that are efficient and safe health is a big arrested an ideological troll disputes brazil is in an awful situation 150000 coronavirus dead 2nd only to the united states things on pretty that careers and lives the economy and the election all hinge on that vaccine no wonder trump has been flooding pharmaceutical giants with billions urging them to go fast and faster we have a vaccine that's coming it's ready it's going to be announced within weeks and it's going to be delivered we have operation work speed which is the military is going

to distribute the vaccine and just as it brazil there's a divide a chasm in opinion people want need a vaccine but they want one that works not one that makes the most money not $1.00 that stumbled and struggled through trials and especially not one made to save the president's korea 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 back seat 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 should take it 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 simple thing a jab to save millions of lives would turn into a bit of a free for all over all region in money name and preach the advantage and

reelection let's just hope that efficiency and public health also get a little consideration. if meanwhile a survey by starts the horace poll this month fund only 58 percent of americans are ready to tick of the soon it's a vailable now that's a drop of more than 10 per cent since the previous survey and made organist. i'm delighted to welcome on to the program once more arvin of an is vice chair for the u.s. libertarian party national committee and a former presidential candidate always good to see you arvin why the sharp drop in enthusiasm for the facts and do you think. when you give somebody the question would you take a vaccine they assume you're asking would you take a vaccine that has gone to the same long term rigorous testing as every other vaccine right now the american people are being given

a different question which is would you take a vaccine that hasn't really gone through any kind of long term testing where you could not possibly know what the long term effects are so obviously people can have a little bit colder feet when they're dealing with something that is a lot less well known then other vaccines that have decades of of of dated research behind them how dangerous to public health is politicize ation of the foxing we recall for instance we just heard in fact come a lot horace joe biden's running mate saying she will be taking any vaccine trial tells her to. when you politicize medicine generally the results are bad and that's one of the reasons that many libertarians have advocated for getting the f.d.a. entirely out of medicine to get the government tiredly out of medicine abolish the f.d.a. and cut our taxes accordingly see the thing is each person has to calculate their own risk their own situation listen if i was living in new york city and i had to

transit to commute every single day and i'm surrounded by thousands and millions of people that's going to give me a different perspective a different calculus then if i'm living in a rural part of the country and i'm seeing maybe one person a week so this is something where it's not a one answer for everybody that's the problem with government trying to make these decisions we're trying to politicize them these are individual health decisions just like we have individual dietary decisions that we make for ourselves we have to make these individual health decisions based on our actual needs our actual perceived risk not on some sort of blanket decision made by a government just over a week to go until the election one vaccine policy depends on who wins it. it's going to affect it quite a bit i mean vaccine vaccines have become politically divisive over the last decade you've seen a decade ago very few people knew that the government paid out of a vaccine injury compensation today i would say that most people inside of politics

and of these number of people outside of politics know that sometimes are vaccine related injuries vaccine related deaths and so that's a testament to how much it is because how much this issue has come into the political limelight before it was just not really there it has become very very central so when you now have some it's already kind of an incendiary as issue and you add to it the biggest event in the world in the last decade easily then of course is going to be a politically important politically important issue and people are going to look very closely at how the candidates treat it do they treat it as a government issue an individual choice issue or something else entirely you know martin you know the normal person on the streets looking out international countries are dealing with things in such a different way than how are they supposed to know what to take for instance you've got brazil's president rejecting a chinese vaccine while continuing trials with oxford university in austria seneca

whose job neighboring peru rejected a lot of discrepancies. right now we're dealing with a lot of unknowns and so when you have that kind of uncertainty people are going to start making decisions not based on medical fact or scientific analysis but rather based on politics and you're going to see people use vaccines from countries that they d. you know to be on their side and sure i do avoid vaccines from countries that they view as their you know soft enemies that kind of stuff is nonsensical mess where individual choice comes in an individual person might not have any individual beef with any country even if that country's a rogue state road ever and that individual person has the right to buy a vaccine from anyone who they think has made a good vaccine and shouldn't be dictated by the f.d.a. age should be dictated by the brazilian government it should be dictated by the peruvian government each individual person should be able to buy a vaccine from any country that they want to as long as they themselves are willing

to take that risk appreciate your take this are our vent for a vice chair for the libertarian party national committee thank you thanks for having me on. for months is pressuring social media giants to stun arctic stream is a moment the government has summoned representatives of facebook twitter and other firms to explain why so-called cyber islam isn't is being allowed to spread on their platforms. it's hard to take stock in the wake of. beheading social media giants have come for. those who participated in the public lynching of this teacher there are videos that were posted on social networks in a way responsible for what happened in the days leading up to the murder of the 47 year old teacher videos inciting hatred against him was shared on social media platforms some party was also targeted by activists online in a hate campaign that went viral whipping up

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 used twitter to claim responsibility. for. 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 here think social media giants doing their bit the things that are being posted inciting hatred and not normal. should be done to tackle that much more it's very easy to

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. should block such posts and there should be more people moderating all the content social media joints have also been hauled 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 colquitt proposals about cyber islam isn't he said to delusions islamist ideology spread widely on social networks whole generation of young people i mean rediculus that home alone in their rooms front of their phones or computers france has already tried to combat hate speech online with the hour feel a little it's now thought aspects 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 the problem lies with how it's being enforced social media giants have all 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. another voice on this story we spoke to the french author of a number of a claim books on terrorism who believes it's up to the authorities to take action. more should be done from the secret services i mean de france has a in a place called blade it will. the big ears or and this is where you you have to really make an effort into identifying the hate speech is.

the operations and plays the demands of vengeance on this information traveling on 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. try and money to allay keywords and various postings that they will take of but it might be too late people download them they recycle them it's really complicated has to be done at the ground level. with 19 dodgy dealings bullies in north korea just some of the topics donald trump and joe biden clashed over in the final presidential debate but the 2 septuagenarians weren't the only ones in the spotlight before the event a former associate of biden's son hunter spoke of it or teased double quarter texas through the out on the night that was one of the main stars of the debate was

definitely the scandalous elephant in the 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 stealing 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 joe biden say that is never discussed business with hunter. that is false 'd i have 1st hand knowledge about this because i directly dealt with the biden family while just 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 hunter's business venture was allegedly collecting millions of dollars from every year now i also said that joe biden was

specifically mentioned in these emails 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 the horrible even ills of the kind of money that you were raking in you and your family and show you a vice president when some of this was happening and i think you owe an explanation to the american people if i did my job a 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 shed that what

this he's accusing me of is a russian plane 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 whose response to that should not remain as president of the united states of america they. he left us a mess which he's saying is a bunch of garbage this is a terrible thing it is then a flow back i think he called me a racist even a response if he isn't a phobic come on joe you could do better you said i tape i did show the tape put it on your website i put it on on 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

beginning of the debates already more than 46000000 americans had cast 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 yeah a lot of to and fro from both the investigative journalist rick sterling told us the final debate shied away from the most crucial issues facing the u.s. . 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. occupation sort of brought the out of control military budget that 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 be old by by reducing the wars abroad

those things haven't happened on the other side we've got joe biden who is a proven member of the establishment so so we're in a we're in a bad place there are no good choices from my perspective. 20 minutes past the hour still ahead on the program millions all of you all those are already being replaced by robots and it is happening foster like think that pick out our future available .

this little boy the week before the election many are asking the question do you believe the polls we have good reason to do so should voters trust the polls and if you don't trust the folks will you trust the outcome of the election.

again russia like most of europe is seeing a surge in kobe had 19 cases the caseload rose to a new record daily tele this week to stem the tide new restrictions have been introduced here in moscow artie's for monk austria went to see what's changed russia is bracing for a 2nd coronavirus wave as french coleridge numbers continue breaking records across the country and in moscow while stopping short of introducing a log down measures the mayor's office has announced new rules and guidelines in an effort to keep people safe and keep the economy going. first of all employers are now required to send 30 percent of their force to work from home and they must report who works for mostly and who doesn't students in middle and high schools have switched to distance learning and everyone must wear masks and gloves in all public places like shops and public transport and those who don't follow the anti

code measures will be fined. millions of people use the moscow subway every day and with several stations added each year that number continues to grow and metro authorities are doing all they can to ensure the safety of passengers from corona virus everyone using the system is required to wear protective gear at all times and that rule is being very strictly enforced each subway car is disinfected once it reaches the depot now new trains have a built in ultra violet dickinson the nation system so all it needs are a pair of good hands and some good chemicals as well. the entertainment industry was one of the most affected during the pandemic following at su months logged out imposed by the moscow authorities earlier this year many restaurants and bars either went out of business or closed down for renovations well if the situation is

with a shutdown is now over but call that numbers are once again on the rise this time death or it sees have decided on a softer approach focusing on contact tracing while keeping this kind of business running now let's see exactly how it works when we walk into this bar. sensitive. that's it. now checked in and i'm ready to go and listen to some music and to party just a little bit. yes if i get the t.v. try this could see some for the 1st time it wasn't so bad going to open the door in teen was tough for us we're really happy this time they found another way we were afraid of being closed again it's really awesome the musicians to remind our customers to keep weary mosques and maintain social distancing. we try to explain

to our visitors if you want us to stay open and if you love us just follow the rules of course they go along with it. the robot revolution is wiping our jobs at a faster rate than ever their courting to a new report by the world economic forum machines will carry out of all human jobs within 5 years the pandemic is only accelerating the trend it's estimated that automation will leave 85000000 people out of work by 2025 worldwide over 97000000 year olds are predicted to emerge the forum's managing director says firms will have to add up quickly. if this continues for too much longer there's going to be a big structural change there some of those companies will not be able to last through to the end of this recession and therefore we're looking at more permanent job losses. i got the thoughts of a few guests earlier on 'd whether the forecast is all doom and gloom or not. the

prediction is 85000000 job losses it's a number is staggering just to get your head to run 1st of all if that's true how devastating is it going to be for people's livelihoods it's going to be very devastating you know i was a union lawyer for 26 years and i've seen job losses before mass job losses but nothing on this 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 i just the same with any massive job those that get it we just need to keep out of that white 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 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 to

create out on a much reasoning machine that are able to replace you all month who are human and if you can imagine sort of the decision that robots can take are very very basic yes they can work in manufacturing chain but yes they can working dogs or sector where there is no repetitive task they were not for where we need quick supply human conclusion it said in the article that 97000000 jobs will be created by this robot revolution they're talking about the likes of care a big data green economy to name a few if not overly optimistic that with a huge number but i'm optimistic that there would be still jobs for your money so robots will not replace the human anytime soon indeed there will be jobs more jobs created for horrible woods but there will be also more jobs created for the human scene now monitoring in supervising these reports of the really highly skilled

people at the top of the pyramid again to be salt all to what. what will they do that will be a layer of the balsam who do repairs to tell us to and they could be replaced but that's not the enormous group who aren't necessarily all i need to eat but doing very hands on work i want talking about nurses we talking about care well because we're talking about but also we're talking about weights and those people won't be replaced if a new ford andi's this robotic revolution. those who have lost their work will stay out of work in those who have been thrown into poverty will will stay in poverty i fear we need to prepare by again making sure. that those who are going to be unemployed do have a basic income new jobs are open up by this new technological jobs we need to begin training people for those jobs. a lot is your lot for now but up to the moment news views are as always just a click away keep on top of developments by giving r.t.

a follow on twitter. and i'm back in 30 because he didn't it. was a pandemic no certainly no borders just lying to nationalities. the summary. judgment commentary crisis with this system. we can do better we should. everyone is contributing. but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges created with the response has been so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are in it
