2:02 am
along with wife pens out of the american vaccines he said a safe. kiran and i were more than happy to step forward before this week was. to take the safe and effective coronavirus vaccine that we have secured produced for the american people well let's not go through confirmed cases of allergic reactions to the fire as a job should be to alaska health workers had to be rushed to hospital with one still receiving treatment it's among the 5 cases the f.d.a. is probing but is also registered to cases with adverse reactions to the pfizer shot the country's health officials have warned against vaccinating those with a history of allergies there's also controversy that americans can. face it all modernity as well you may be surprised to hear in february authorities brought in the public readiness an emergency preparedness so prep act it provides immunity for all vaccine makers for 4 years trial lawyer told us about the situation that. if
2:03 am
they are sick and they miss a couple of days of work and they don't feel good for 3 or 4 weeks they're going to get 0 compensation under the american legal system typically and individual injured by a product or service can sue and you can have a class action where literally tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people can sue the government when they implemented this war speed. to have a vaccine developed much faster than normal the companies weren't willing to do that for fear that they might get sued so the government said we will protect you companies so you can't be sued. brazil is also controversy by the response of the pandemic has its supreme court approved mandatory vaccination we get reaction from locals later you know program. a top u.s.
2:04 am
physician and consultant to vaccine manufacturers spoke to a channel about the state of covert job study plotkin told us whether the shelter can actually stop the pandemic. many people fear of vaccines and this is true throughout the world and yet when one really looks at the record back scenes in general have been quite safe now the thing that one has to understand is risk if the risk of the disease as it is for ringback covert 19 let's say is 20 percent that's 2 in every 10 people right. and the risk of the reactions to vaccines that i'm familiar with is about one in a 1000000 so if you compare the risks if you're intelligent you would take the
2:05 am
vaccine. what we don't know for any of the back scenes as far as whether they will consistently prevent infection or which is important because if they do that will prevent the virus from spreading if they don't then we have ways situation where vaccination vaccinated people will be protected but unvaccinated people will not be protected so we have a lot to learn about the vaccines. both the gamel a vaccine and the astra zeneca vaccine are based on a virus called ad no virus in the astra zeneca people probably feel that that they could. improve the response by using not one ad no virus but 2 and that was the good idea of the gama lay
2:06 am
a vaccine to use one that had no wires that's a prime and another ad no irises a boost and that seems to work better. they will be collected certainly through in the next year now if you're talking about safety city examination of safety is really it can be done in a month or 2 laughter vaccination or as if you're talking about efficacy then you in the long observations the term and how effective a vaccine is and over what period of time that's another issue that we don't have any information on i will not have any information for many months. well i am not pessimistic about. attack scenes
2:07 am
at least reducing the infection whether they. completely obliterate the infection remains to be seen. scrooge the british m.p. has blasted the parliament leader jacob riis morgue for opposing unicef feeding poor families in the u.k. for the 1st time reece morgan the ruling conservative party claims the relief effort though is a publicist a stunt a real scoundrel that unicef should be playing politics in this way when it is meant to be looking after people in the poorest the most deprived countries in the world where people are starving where there are famines or whether civil wars and they make cheap political points of this kind giving i think 25000 pounds to one council it is a political stunt in parliament i just challenge jay caprice mark about unicef having to feed working class kids in the u.k. it's shameful for kids to go hungry it's not shameful to feed them the only person
2:08 am
who should be ashamed is you mr rees mark unicef recently launched a wide ranging program aimed at tackling food insecurity is going to be granting over $700000.00 pounds to community groups all over the u.k. the organization is also helping feed children in the south of london as mentioned giving out food parcels and assuring breakfasts are distributed to schools there become pain is very much put a spotlight on food poverty in the u.k. considered one of the wealthiest countries in the world of course according to unicef an estimated 2400000 children in so-called food insecure homes one free school meal programs have seen huge numbers of families sign up to unicef's defended its decision to do this to provide humanitarian help to children in the u.k. . unicef ukase responding to the some press tented crisis and building on our 25 years experience of working on children's rights in the u.k. with a one off domestic response launched
2:09 am
a notice to provide support to vulnerable children and families around the country during this crisis period. we spoke with the founder of the largest independent food bank in the u.k. who says the government's handling of the poverty crisis there has been unacceptable. i think the reality is the government's own figures show that in britain 4.5 children get 1000000 children get free school meals and before the pandemic the government's own figures confirm that 12000000 people in britain a word in poverty i think what unicef and don his of course given some money to people in britain and britain is one of the great generous countries in the world for giving money so it's only just right that when our people are in crisis that unicef gives us some cash by the scandal is we have a government that keeps pussy footing around the real crisis or brush it i'm not spit 15000 people 15000000 people in the 1st 6 richest economy on the planet going
2:10 am
hungry and that's not acceptable we should be leading a global campaign to end poverty not pussyfooting around it we're now feeding so many people we can hardly cope it's not something that we can just depend anymore on our government our government around the world are all tied up with the pandemic trying to get people safe and stop people dying letting people go hungry is not a priority and so we as people and we as communities need to take back power and politicize it in a way but we can eradicate the problems. us president elect joe biden's promise to unite the country as its leader but his words don't appear to much the actions of his party as biden's campaign manager and the incoming deputy chief of staff have been hurling insults at republicans and the pope and reports. putting the star in stars and stripes joe biden the great healer of america is on a winning streak and he will not stop until these states are united by
2:11 am
a pledge to be a president who seeks not to divide but unify. who doesn't see red states and blue states only sees the united states but there might be a small problem not everyone in the democratic camp is so keen on the healing process i'm not saying they're not a bunch of. terrible not exactly a white flag coming from the new administration and she's not alone many democrats are not very keen on smoothing things over with trump supporters people who stood by donald trump for the last 4 years and now claiming to be offended at the time democratic campaign manager used to curse wait i don't think so so if the side of washington that's winning is already talking trash what about the other ones still sore from losing a 2nd term biden talks about unity and healing but you want to know what they really think read how the person he wants is the next white house deputy chief of staff called republicans in congress
2:12 am
a bunch of. but in campaign manager called us you can try to walk back but this is volumes about him boss who calls for unity while shouting that we are assaulting democracy they think we're a deplorable irredeemable sick getting over these ill feelings post-election will be no easy feat the hatred has been there for a long time and some of them are as she said deplorable to just be grossly generalistic you could put half of trump's supporters into what i call the basket of deplorable zx their race is sex is homophobia xander. as long. day mitt and unfortunately there are people like that. and he has lifted them up this has been tried before the whole unity montra at least while the cameras are rolling well i will be a president for democrats republicans independents for the struggling the striving
2:13 am
the successful for all those who vote for me and for those who doubt for our god where i can choose to have her to go that's what the country needs. a sense of unity a sense of inclusion. a respect for our institutions. our way of life. rule of law. and respect for each other so we've got a new administration full of familiar faces we've got a brand new president who used to be the vice and at this point we've got a new post to trump america with many things remaining the same and they probably won't be fixed what's been going on for the last 8 years right well america has been in a domestic abuse situation you have one side of the political already that has spent more years gaslighting lying abusing manipulating. the mylan saluting
2:14 am
berty impeaching and coming up with every big news story that ending everything they can to turn the population against this president doing everything they can to divide this country and now it somehow managed to it appears install joe biden as president because for unity or not only the leery of this but also extremely cynical i can assure you there's going to be no unity in this country in fact i have heard many people on the right saying that they're quite excited for the next 4 years to do everything the luxman doing to them over the last couple years but 3 full now that's an issue because those republicans who would be willing to work with the other side are going to win many friends in the electorate and they're not going to be very popular. brazil's supreme court's approved compulsory vaccination against the president's wishes and will impose fines and ban citizens from public places of the don't do so in theory i mean confusion
2:15 am
widespread in the country the a supreme court justice tried than to explain just what compulsory means. every brazilian will have the obligation to be vaccinated which just not mean they can be forced to take the vaccine compulsory does not mean that compulsory means that any noncompliance will lead to a penalty for the beginning of the us. if you don't want to be treated you have the right not to be treated if i decide for example not to do chemotherapy and to die it's my problem and we in the federal government have already made clear that the vaccine will be offered to everyone but those who do not want to take it don't have to the country suffered a spike in covert cases brazil's the 2nd worst hit country in the world behind the us reporting more than $800.00 deaths on friday alone we are brazilians what they thought then about this compulsory vaccination plan. i
2:16 am
agree with x nation be mandatory because brazilians are not aware of how dangerous the virus is how people going to leave with others without being vaccinated i don't agree with making it mandatory because everyone has to make their own decision about taking the vaccine or not i agree with the penalties because for the good of all humanity to be able to go out and be a tease on the street i agree with the vaccine being mandatory for the good of the whole world. i believe there has to be a middle way that everyone understands the importance of the vaccine and how it can help us but without it being mandatory i believe taking the vaccine shouldn't be mandatory although i also understand that in case the person doesn't take the vaccine it could be difficult for them because it could put other people's lives at risk. coming up as the price of cryptocurrency bitcoin his record highs artie's business grow much because it tells what it means for the future of the economy in these bleak old times as he sees it after this short break.
2:17 am
is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation community. are you going the right way or are you being led. by. what is true what is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. or i'm a bit of a shallow. so
2:18 am
what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race in. spearing dramatic development only and. i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical. to sit down and talk. again morning haunted by hunter gate joe biden's again to explain the federal prosecutors launched a criminal probe into his son hunter's tax affairs and an interview together with his wife the us president elect brown did all charges fall play we have great confidence in our son. i'm not concerned about any accusations being made against him i think it's kind of fall play but these accusations is just part of why
2:19 am
declaims including corruption allegations over hunter's ukraine dealings and leaked e-mails from his laptop next explains why this will remain a headache for the president elect. we none of us are clean let's be honest we've all done things we're ashamed of have secrets that we wouldn't want anyone to know sometimes they come to light especially if you're a politician nixon and watergate clinton lewinsky would joe budden and his boy his son hunter biden is now under a federal criminal investigation like a vine is selling influence over c. hunter biden made millions of dollars in ukraine highlighting the corruption of joe and hunter biden quite the character. his scandal ridden chairmanship of a ukrainian energy company a tax investigation under way suspicion of money laundering sex scandals and even apology for hard drugs crack cocaine you may know all of this or you may be hearing
2:20 am
it for the 1st star the pentagon what you watch and who you read because prude democrat networks didn't think all of this is a newsworthy issue and neither does daddy president elect biden is deeply proud of his son who has fought through difficult challenges and grit the vicious personal attacks of recent months only to emerge stronger personal attacks he says the justice department investigating biden's taxes might disagree or how's this for a personal attack biden jr allegedly using daddy's name to secure 10000000 dollars from the chinese i hope my letter finds you well i regret missing you on your last visit to the united states please accept the best wishes from the entire biden family as well as my partners the biden family is now reportedly under 3 federal investigations with the f.b.i.
2:21 am
involved and dollars to 4 years of russia gate shenanigans i would say republicans probably want a little payback a little hunted gate if you will. on top 3 federal investigations you go into take a lot of confidence let's just hope that daddy can handle the pressure because if he thought that he would have scape that gauntlet that they put trump through well he was wrong the importance of the thing isn't that hunter has bad information about him it's that the mainstream media prevented the public from knowing about it until after the election and what's done is done the mainstream media isn't judging stories by their newsworthiness they're judging them by whether they will help or hurt democratic nominees and candidates and particularly in a presidential election the mainstream media has been trying for 4 years to make donald trump go away and i think this time according to the results of the election
2:22 am
they finally succeeded they couldn't do it with the russia hoax they couldn't do it with impeachment but finally they got donald trump kicked out of office so they believe by getting joe biden elected in the way to elect joe biden was to protect him by not letting the public know things about him and his family that could be damaging to his election chances it's really not complicated. yemen is devastating rules been raging for 6 years with the he one morning of a humanitarian catastrophe and the threat of famine still the world food program spokesperson cold food insecurity then a ticking time bomb on edge there we'll talk to mediately 2000000 yemeni children are already suffering money tradition and medical treatment according to humanitarian reports the conflicts also left nearly 4000000 people displaced and desperate families are even forced to hide in the mountains. if.
2:23 am

2:24 am
the price of cryptocurrency bitcoin has hit a record new high of $23000.00 the price is up 30 percent than in just the last month more than 200 percent this year but cohen's reputation as digital gold currently has grown with several high profile investors naming it as an emerging inflation hedge financial expert and host of artie's kaiser reports told us why he thinks it's a stable investment even in the pandemic. big coin is it was going to go to $400000.00 of going regardless of what what the situation is with the pandemic or regardless of what the situation is between nation states because it will trade similar to a market capitalization of gold the poverty is caused by paper money and big coin solves the problem of poverty how does big going to fix the problem it capitalizes
2:25 am
the banks capitalized the central banks it puts them out of business because everybody has their own bank no paper money has ever survived ever in history over the past 300 years every single form of paper money as either gone completely bankrupt or lost 99 percent of its value not have ever work it's impossible to work paper money it's a it's a faulty idea so we only have really goal but in the 21st century bitcoin is better than gold so big point is actually pushing gold off the world stage people are buying big going not goal because it's superior to gold and that's the inflection point that we're on in the 21st century we're witnessing a remarkable transformation of the global economy right now this year it's incredible. and see what the new you bring soon i it's kind of 26 minutes past 10 thanks for watching this weekend one of you do and hope the day goes well and kevin
2:26 am
always sunny off. because there is this huge gusher of money printing bedsteads coming out of the central banks and because. has nothing working against it because it's not. producing anything like a ford or some other company where you could look at the actual products in a meaningful context of the global economy and ascribe a value to it you can simply say that well we think that tesla has
2:27 am
a meaning which is mostly i mean. money is in me so we're going to make it worth $600000000000.00 today and it could be worth. 90 percent tomorrow. i'm ashen are times the only eve of the un's international human solidarity day you're watching the finale of this season of going underground it's we need here it is seen an assassination that almost sparked world war 3 the arguable end to a trump era that exacerbated a global exists to ensure climate crisis in a london court case that may decide the future for a free press everywhere and all that against a backdrop of a widely predicted global pandemic that has killed over 1600000 people in affected
2:28 am
billions ahead of perhaps hundreds of millions more now being forced into near liberal poverty joining me now is legendary journalist and filmmaker john pilger is jack aides of work as expose the truth when it comes to war plus and your liberal ism john thanks so much for coming back on the world as i said talking about corona virus itself linked to climate change not many people connecting those to you think the virus the response emblematic of. something that threatens everything that threatens all of us yes it does for a norm of us and that's been exacerbated by some of the more outrageous political decisions i think one thing stuck in my mind and that was the amnesty report i know i october 1st said that 18 and a half. elderly people were discharged from hospitals into care homes and they died. they died from coated i mean
2:29 am
that's there's almost a eugenic sense about it it is one of those if that's not one of the great civil crimes of our time i don't want to live boris johnson government and scientists advising the girl said they didn't know that that's what would befall them as they released them they knew about covert. i can't really debate whether they you or not the fact that this is already happened in italy the same thing happened in italy in a part privatized health system in northern italy and long body where they threw people out of hospitals into care. and and they died a lot of elderly people died. if people remember nothing else they should not forget those people those 18000 people vulnerable
2:30 am
people to not access to the their relatives many of them who died and it's it's you know in an age when we. were speaking of so much and rightly so of the inequity and of gender and of race. the question of old age and the vulnerability. and the way we treated those people and i say we i say that advisedly on talking about actually the government the government that is destroyed. public health in this country over a number of years in 2016 as we've discussed on this program there was a major drool about a pandemic.
