yes you got. good luck with. the developers of. vaccine the side an official memorandum of cooperation with astra zeneca they hope that combining that vaccines will improve their efficacy. and spoke exam the ginsberg the director of the galilee institute of sport think of a vaccine. for my 14 year old granddaughter so you boil it in your own instructions against vaccinating children. you are a secure your entire family the secret is vaccines i wasn't going to kill them but prove that the vaccine is completely safe.
2:01 am
reports from alaska that at least 2 health care workers developed allergic reactions. and residents of. the influx of london is feeling a strict along down we hear from people in manchester. were pretty irresponsible by just packing everyone on the trains i'm really not sure that we should believe. a massive outbreak. good morning thanks for joining us here on r.t. international. pharmaceutical giant astra zeneca. clinical trials of a joint coronavirus vaccine this combines elements of developed individually by the 2 sides c.e.o. explained why they are joining forces with the russians. we have 2 main goals the
2:02 am
1st one is to allow your professional know doctors and nurses to use 11 vaccine all the oil for the 1st injection and the 2nd to make the like simpler and the 2nd goal is to hope pretty get better if you just say when you combine the 2 different vaccines are bouncing from and these are competing against each other everybody is racing against the virus we would need many many vaccines because there is no one single company that produce and of x. and for the entire world and some of these vaccines have to be easy to use and they have to be cheap because the low middle income countries cannot afford the expensive accident we were on the period of the disease when the whole world by its growth rate of it so we only said before it got it around the world. scientists say russia's own vaccine sputnik 3 can also protect against the new more infectious
2:03 am
strain of the corona virus which is emerged in the u.k. august's explained why the british russian scientific cooperation in the fight against co that is significant. one of the problems with the. i don't know virus the vaccines like this book nick 5 and the oxford is that there's always a risk that you can develop immunity to the carrier rather than to the target which is what you are wanting for now if you actually makes these 2 that seem so you maybe give one vaccine to start and then the other 134 weeks later then you. get over that problem that developed community to the carrier virus can i think there's quite a lot of evidence that actually does work like that but and people have shown this works in other areas so to me the compound elation of the sputnik and the oxo that's because any back seat could well improve its efficacy
2:04 am
a lot greater than the individual vaccines apart now the problem with. via tectonic scenes is that they are they would cart a very strict training which is going to make it very difficult to deliver in many parts of the world where it is both the oxford and the the russian vaccine have a much more except of all cold showing in terms of being delivering being able to have very many parts of the world. aunties and uncles source who spoke with alexander ginsberg director of russia's gambling institute about how their vaccine differs from others. we developed a vaccine from the start of receiving funding to just ration it really quite quickly in 5 months the main reason is that for 25 years or more we have been developing at the institute a technological formula one which this vaccine preparation can be made to we
2:05 am
already had a wealth of experience not only the technology of how to do it but before that getting even works how it's possible concentrations when you are the dosage is needed to obtain an optimal revenue response with minimal side effects of. the safety of the vaccine has been fully proven on a very similar vaccine or not identical in against not only of all the viruses and also the mers coronavirus so when we were working against we were able to use around 70 percent of an existing element that was one of the indicators by which the effectiveness of the vaccine is most easily measured them this is the presence of until bodies and what if we proceed from lots of experimental data in a similar vaccine against all of this protective immunity laster to work should we simply didn't have a longer observation period would be to bush look at some of your opponents accuse you of not publishing reports on the 2nd and 3rd phase us your proposal so for the 1st and 2nd phase is published not just anywhere but in the lancet at least no
2:06 am
secrets that's in 3 or 4 days and i'm a major only slang which article on the results of the 3rd way will be reading. the pfizer vaccine needs every chance i would and minus 70 degrees and yours at minus 23 rate or less in the 3 minus 18 for now and not some months down the line i hope that we'll be able to amend the registration certificate so that this vaccine can be stored not at minus 14 reports of the household refrigerator temperature of. the side effects still to force you out of action maybe a rash headache. and i think the most noticeable effects and maybe your temperature going up to 30 degrees for 10 days. to take that is in yourself yesterday on march 30th very long with all my inventory and you're still alive not just a lie even with pretty active in which the docs need to my 14 year old daughter so you violated your own instructions against jackson in children that's outrageous
2:07 am
you were raising kill your entire family for the sake of having vaccines and i wasn't going to kill them but through the vaccine is completely safe. what is the difference between the oxford vaccine that is astra zeneca and the game. there are lots of differences but they're not significant in an oxford and astra zeneca went from my point of view for the only part of working against. our colleagues of light all the rules for creating influence so that it seems because of the creation of a vaccine against 19 and it seems to me that the epidemiological features of this disease and pathogen richard were not white accurately calculate the people at pfizer also understand this and they make great efforts to modify the r.n.a. so that it would not be recognized as far as i understand but if by protect you. but i'm not sure where the my colleagues may solve all the problems on a large scale as. us president elect joe biden has received his 1st
2:08 am
dose of vaccine he got the shop live on t.v. to encourage others to get the job when it's more widely available he also commended donald trump's efforts in tackling the pandemic ministration created your units off the ground operation worth it one very graphic scene show up at the hospital there's a lot of really good coverage feeling that. going on on. however at least 2 health care workers in alaska developed symptoms after they got the pfizer job one of them being kept under hospital observation for 2 nights the cases come after the u.k. medical regulator issued a warning about the vaccine to anyone with a history of allergies the vaccine will continue to be rolled out in alaska at this time we have no plans in changing our vaccine schedule our do seeing their regimen this is all kind of part of what we've been looking for and expecting and looking out for and we are making sure the health care providers know about this earlier we
2:09 am
spoke to malcolm kendrick a doctor and author who says the latest developments are concerning. we're going to expect reactions but there seems to be quite early so i think it's something that people should be quite worried that we don't know who is most likely. are there some people who just definitely should not be vaccinated. so i think from a medical understanding point being left with them we'll just give it a whirl and hope it doesn't cause a problem so i mean i understand the rush but it is a concerning thing politicians will demonstrate or they think they're going to demonstrate. i think most of the public this is an approach was if you start and i think you might but farnum but i don't definitely not surprised. concerns of also being raised not only over the vaccines quality but also its quantity leading to a number of u.s. states considering putting ethnic minorities 1st in line for the shot parties to
2:10 am
make sure power takes a closer look. finally the miracle everyone has been waiting for covert 900 vaccines have started making their way around the world but while some sighed with relief most will have to hold their breath for a bit longer distribution turns out to be a bit more complicated than expected who needs it 1st who gets it 1st these people even once it all these questions have started to bait especially in the us where americans have been split in surprise already groups based on their needs age and even race after health care workers and those living or working at long term health care facilities receive the 1st round of vaccines black hispanic and other minority residents will be prioritized over whites in the following to phases of distribution well that has raised a few eyebrows the c.d.c. points out that is because minorities are 3 times more likely to die from cold complications however some medical workers who are already getting the jobs aren't excited to be at the top of the list and feel they are part of an experiment nursing staff feels as though they don't want to be somebody science experiment or
2:11 am
a guinea pig but nevertheless most americans are eager to get inoculated even if it means waiting in line i think it makes sense to give our most marginalized population back to me and yet i'm getting it when it's my turn. turn deaf i think it should go to critical 1st and then i have the opportunity i will get so i'll get vaccinated for sure and i think it's a good place to start to balance it out i think the older population should get it 1st though 1st the priority list has also caused widespread anger that's are put front line essential workers above those with high risk medical conditions heartless arrogant unelected c.d.c. bureaucrats have decided that the lives of elderly americans just don't count and while there are concerns over the rapid development of the vaccine those with cash to spare are willing to pay tens of thousands of dollars to jump the line we're getting a lot of calls. so they're birdies. and you order my.
2:12 am
or are requesting the vaccine kindly kindly letting him know that you know we have an ethical duty to be able to vaccinate. the people that. need prior d. if you will and then afterwards i'm doing my best to get it for all the patients are a part of my. anybody else who needs it california governor gavin newsom has even warned the state's elites against using their influence to get a hold of a job ahead of those who desperately need it those who think they can get ahead of the line and those who think because they have results is all they have relationships that would allow them to do it we also will be monitoring that's very very closely although coming from him it brings a little hollow all those fancy dinners with health care officials after declaring a state wide shut down don't exactly inspire confidence in anything newsom says and
2:13 am
the u.s. isn't the only country having a difficult time germany's vaccine distribution plans have also been met with scrutiny unlike the us not all doctors there ended up at the top of the list medical staff in the private sector as well as ambulance workers were not given top priority despite being on the front lines against the not only treat a large number of high risk patients they're also on the front line when it comes to caring for corona infected people nevertheless they are still lower on the priority list for vaccinations that's a risk because these practices form an important protective wall for the already heavily burdened hospitals german police have also insisted they should be higher on the list due to cost of exposure and the president has stressed the importance of parliamentarians getting the job as soon as possible to make sure the state is capable of running meanwhile the israeli government is getting some unwelcome scrutiny as the country begins to roll at vaccine shots palestinians living in the occupied territories have gotten the short end of the stick today the numbers of covert 1000 cases which is spreading like wildfire in gaza's refugee camps are
2:14 am
telling of the catastrophic situation here we call on the international community to immediately end the siege of gaza allow medical supplies in and allocate vaccines for the gaza strip where many face imminent death. while the arrival of these vaccines does raise hopes for an end to the pandemic there is still a very long way to go. british transport police have been deployed in london to stop a mass exodus of people trying to avoid a strict new long down however residents of northern england where many londoners are heading to pleased about the influx we heard from people in manchester think it is a little bit concerning the amount of people who are experts in the middle to the north a lot of people have lost confidence in the advice they've been given and they gave everyone 8 hours know. what they were going to do for christmas so i can really understand how you can justify
2:15 am
a journey but you've got to think really about the implications it does have on those people who have visited obviously people want to get to their families no loved ones but i'm really not sure that we should be leaving london where there's obviously a massive outbreak and going into the regions and potentially taking the virus with them i think people are very inconsiderate about quitting leaving the city of london and we don't realise that it's going to spread very ill across the whole of the country. meanwhile in london long queues of for outside supermarkets over concerns of food shortages in the run up to christmas here it's been fueled by a combination of factors that include a potential no deal bragg's it strict a tear for lock down regulations and border closures because of the new coronavirus strain british officials say that the new variant has already spread to other parts of the country. the new variant is spread around the country it's localised in some places but we know there are cases everywhere so it's not as though we can stop
2:16 am
this getting into other places there's some there already the message has been very clear and i think i want to reinforce it is state local. we spoke with former british member of parliament george galloway who says that it's suspicious the case reacting to the new strain of the virus on the now when in fact it was identified months ago i should tell you that sir patrick vallance says that this new mutant corona virus was identified last september and it's a couple of days before christmas but the government council of the whole thing that is inherently suspicious if i tell you that on there a few months ago the british government was paying people to go out and dined in restaurants eat out to help out they say that we spent billions of taxpayers' money actually paying the bill in the restaurant for someone like me who could well
2:17 am
afford to pay for their own don't know we've gone from that to look for before christmas cancelling the whole thing it's been a shambles from start to finish and the very expensive shambles no i said the government was talking up this new target in order to divert attention from it's all cataclysmic filioque. the company us has finally decided on a name for spaceport personnel which is supports quite a stir online story after the break. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race. spearing dramatic probably the only move really exists i
2:18 am
don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical. to sit down in. we started talking about big point 0 dollars back in 2011 we've been pushing it telling people about a 10 dollars 100 dollars 1000 dollars 10000 dollars and still buy at these new all time high prices and the new york times washington d.c. c.n.n. were all pushing their. conspiracy theories and dissuading from watching our show as a result many people around the world mexico latin america asia everywhere got in from 100 countries that are broadcasted and they have made millions we've read all rounder 1000 millionaires a big point but not so much in the u.s. because the u.s. is blinkered by its love of keynesian economics it's. dead.
2:19 am
welcome back the u.s. congress has now passed a long awaited 900000000000 dollar coronavirus stimulus package the deal now just needs to be signed off by don't trump. the agreement over the weekend after months of negotiations the 2nd such relief and since the start of the pandemic. takes a look at the fine details. we've got a situation where not only are people dying on a daily basis but people's jobs are in jeopardy unemployment numbers are rising however members of the u.s. congress are reassuring us that they have put together a relief package help is on the way moments ago in consultation with our committees the 4 leaders of the senate and i. found was an agreement to the millions of small business owners who are worried their businesses would go on their help is on the
2:20 am
way to families struggling with less money. direct payments mean help is on the way the stimulus package will inject $900000000000.00 into the u.s. economy and for average americans that translates to a check of $600.00 now keep in mind that 6 $100.00 will be lessened for people who make more than $75000.00 per year now there will also be a $300.00 boost to federal unemployment benefits now this might sound like a lot for some but many americans look at this and say this is completely underwhelming and are quite disappointed $600.00 is a slap in the face no one should be proud of making people so desperate that they're reduced to sing think you for a crumb 600 dollars 11000000000 dollars for a border wall $15000000000.00 for a space force we need a radical revolution of values for many americans it's going to be
2:21 am
a quite gloomy holiday season jobless claims have shot up close to 8000000 americans have been driven into poverty 27000000 adults in the united states in december were living in a household in which there was food insecurity and not enough food on the table but this is one story of a family that has suffered during the pandemic from the economic fallout i actually was getting unemployment when the going to make it so that endemic can't and i have not been able to get any late unemployment benefits am i going to get an extension so that helps but then i wasn't able to get anything else and i still haven't since july i've lost my car of absolute brand names it's been hard no christmas for my kids i've been taking part time jobs i've had 3 jobs since everything happens that i keep losing because of corbett there is also been a devastation of small businesses across the united states at this point we've got
2:22 am
quite a bit of frustration from democrats and republicans about all the amount of time that it took to reach a stimulus a. negotiations dragged on for months many are questioning how things might change in january when joe biden comes into office biden is promising that he will turn things around regarding the pandemic in his 1st 100 days many people are looking at joe biden's words and saying let's wait and see a lot of frustration in the united states right now a lot of economic suffering a lot of a lot of people that are are very unsatisfied with this stimulus agreement. kristie believes that the measure well enough to help all americans i think this is a temporary and they just to tide us into next year essentially so this is. really this is not enough for many americans potentially facing eviction next year is the unemployment in this way in a small business closure that's not going to stand so this is a lot of measures and proteges jammed all into one proposal but the problem is
2:23 am
a total dollar amount isn't enough. so many ways that in the end i'm not sure how big of an impact this is actually going to make it's a temporary band-aid vary so much like the phase one deal of the trade deal we have with china where all the difficult meaningful issues have been left out in order to get it done so it's essentially buy more time to kick the can down the road and the progress of this vaccine that everybody is betting on. members of the united states space force of funding been given the name one year after the elite branch of the armed forces was created you'd think that after so long the u.s. top brass would be able to come up with something truly original the son come home with a thing that they took inspiration from hollywood. soldiers sailors airmen marines and guardians will be defending.
