19 vaccine from. a trial volunteer in brazil accuses the firm of withholding crucial data. coming up in the field in the french government confront social media for failing to hate speech but public opinion is that it. is very easy to put the blame on social media and it's up to a person to decide what is problematic or not to block such posts and there should be more people monitoring content. business dealings overshadow his father's run for the white house a former associate speaks just ahead of thursday night's u.s.

presidential debate accusing. i've 1st hand knowledge about this because i directly dealt with the biden family including joe biden. just after 1 in the morning in jerusalem. and here in moscow this saturday october the 24th welcome to our to international i mean in the new. peru has decided not to buy doses of a coronavirus vaccine being developed by the british swedish firm. lima side of the lock up data from the company after the death of a trial volunteer. 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 takes a closer look. there is always the risk with any vaccine any clinical trial that statistical improbability that would point to nor 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 the skis in brazil there have been new 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 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 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'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 a simple thing a jab to save millions of lives would turn into a bit of free for all of origin and money name and preach the advantage and

reelection let's just hope that efficiency and public health also get a little consideration you know a survey by starts on the horace poll this month when we 58 percent of americans are ready to take a fax in the soon it is available that's a drop of more than 10 percent since the previous survey in mid august. for the us libertarian party national committee told me earlier vaccination he believes should not be compulsory or politically motivated. when you politicize medicine generally the results are bad and that's one of the reasons that many libertarians of 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 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 and then other vaccines that have decades of of of dated research behind them 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 are actual perceived risk not on some sort of blanket decision made by a government so when you now have some that'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 a 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.

another story we're keeping a close eye on today fronts is pressuring social media giants the stump but extremism online the government has summoned representative of facebook twitter other firms as well to explain why so-called cyber islam ism is being allowed to spread on their platforms. it's hard to take stock in the wake of. beheading social media giants have become. 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 mood of the 47 year old teacher videos inciting hatred against him was shared social media platforms 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 by 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 and call. 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 are 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 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 have been radicalized at home alone in their rooms in front of their phones or computers france has already tried to combat hate speech online with the feel it's now thought aspects of tackling hate speech could also be included in khan's new trough bill to fight separatism some argue it's nought to morag elation that's needed the problem lies

with how it's being enforced social media giants have all been criticised for helping extremist groups recruit and radicalize people with high capturing content for some they can no longer be treated as neutral hosts and dangerous content that can as france has seen recently lead to unspeakable crimes and it's now be treated as a priority. r.t. paris. or so for the reaction on this we spoke to the french author of a number of acclaim books on terrorism who believes it's up to the authorities to. more should be done from the secret services i mean de france has a in a place called blade 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 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 keywords and various postings to their will take 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. over 19 dodgy dealings and delays in north korea just some of the topics donald trump and joe biden clashed over in the final presidential debate but the 2 set to watch in ariens where the only ones in the spotlight before the event a former associate of biden's son hunter spoke. quarter takes us through the art of 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 this 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 drive this point home and during the debates the e-mails the horrible evils 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 this he'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 wish i want to stay on the issue of radio have 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 phobic 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 hate 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 $46000000.00 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 here still is just going through there are a lot of to and fro between the 2 but 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. occupations 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 the infrastructure that promised he was going to build 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. 17 minutes 1 am here in moscow still to come millions of jobs are already being replaced by robots that's tough and they go faster than you might think pick up her future coming up will. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics small business i'm show business i'll see you then.

when else should seem wrong. but all wrong just don't call. me. yet to shape out these days to come out ahead and engage me because betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. in the. brain. my favorite or if. you're absolutely wrong it's we have part of the brain right here in the middle that's on the right side very high with assimilated and even healthy people one through 4 sold out of body experience.

with r.t. russia like most of europe is seeing a surge in co but 19 cases the caseload rose to a new record deal a telly this week to stem the tide new restrictions have been introduced here in moscow artie's roman culture of went out of the budget to see what's changed. russia is bracing for a 2nd coronavirus wave is fresh shouldered numbers continue breaking records across the country and in moscow while stopping short of introducing a lockdown 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 call with 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 metro authorities are doing all they can to ensure the safety of passengers from coronavirus 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 and you are trains have a built in ultraviolet dickenson 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 month logs are 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 colvin numbers are once again on the rise this time the

thory 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. once it's in . the city. now i checked in and i'm ready to go listen to some music and to party just a little bit. cancelling a bit the t.v. try to scare and see sin 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 riaz of the musicians to mind our own customs to keep we must 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 ruble and revolution is wiping a job at a faster rate than ever according to a new report by the world economic forum machines well cardiod half of all human jobs within 5 years the pun demick is only accelerating the trend it's estimated that automation will leave 85000000 people out of work by 2025 worldwide although 97000000 new roles are predicted to emerge in the forums managing director say firms will have to adapt and 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. as the number of guest earlier whether the forecast is all doom and.

the prediction is 85000000 job losses it's a number is staggering just to get your head around 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 the scale tab to switch human life there 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 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 good in creating be out on them with reasoning machines that are able to replace you all

month who are 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 work in nodder sector where there is a repeated to task they were not for in fact so aware of we need their exploited human cognition 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 it's not overly optimistic there was 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 would be jobs more jobs created for horrible woods but there would 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 whatever they do that will be

a lair of the boat so who do repairs. they could be replaced but that's not the enormous group who aren't necessarily highly paid but do very hands on work we're talking about nurses we talking about because we're talking about both. of those people won't be replaced say move forward on to this robotic revolution. those who've lost that work will stay out of work and those who've been thrown into poverty 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 shops. let's get a check at some other world news in brief starting with the rest in chile police fired water cannon to disperse protesters in the capital sunday i'll go hundreds taking to the streets to protest ahead of
