well. you know what the. minute on the. u.s. president elect joe biden gets his 1st dose of the pfizer covered vaccine amid reports from alaska where at least 2 health care workers developed an allergic reaction. we talked to alexander ginsberg the director of the institute behind russia sputnik the vaccine who has full confidence in the tap. my 14 year old granddaughter so you violated your own instructions against vaccinating children that's outrageous you were ready to kill your entire family for the sake of a new vaccine i wasn't going to kill them but prove that the vaccine is completely safe. and northern england season influx of londoners fleeing

a regional lockdown we get reaction from people in manchester. who really have responsible by just talking everyone on the trains i'm really not sure that we should believe in what is obviously a massive outbreak. welcome to the program this tuesday evening this is our 2 international bring you your live news update this hour. u.s. president elect joe biden has received his 1st dose of pfizer's coated vaccine he got the shot live on t.v. to encourage others to get the job when it's more widely available he also commended the trump administration's efforts and getting the shot produced so quickly. ministration desertion created their units off the ground operation we're seeing it's one thing to have a graphic scene show a hospital is going to write

a scene from that evolve into a needle and on the arm. for at least 2 health care workers in alaska developed symptoms after they got the pfizer job with one being kept under hospital observation for 2 nights the case has come after the u.k. medical regulator issued a warning about giving the banks seem to anyone with a history of severe allergies axion it will continue to be rolled out in alaska however at this time we have no plans in changing our vaccine schedule are due seeing their regimen this is all kind of part of what we've been looking for and expecting and looking out for we are making sure the health care providers know about this earlier we spoke to malcolm kendrick a doctor and author who finds the latest developments concerning. we're going to expect reactions but there seems to be quite so we are quite early so i think it's something that people should be quite worried that we don't know who's most likely to have a problem are there some people who just definitely should not be fascinating research center so i think from

a medical so understanding point you would be left with them well just give it a whirl and hope it doesn't cause a problem so we don't understand the rush but it is a concerning thing politicians will demonstrate or they think they're going to demonstrate. by taking it i think most of the public this is a publicity stunt and i think it might but far from them but i'm definitely not surprised. concerns have also been raised about the quality of the vaccine leading to a number of u.s. states considering putting ethnic minorities 1st in line for the shot her power to case 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 into priority 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 code 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 a guinea pig but nevertheless most americans are eager to get an ocular rated even if it means waiting in line i think it makes sense to give our most marginalized population back to the various. are getting it when i turned. her down 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 would think the older population should get it 1st though 1st the priority list has also caused widespread anger that's are put frontline 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. 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 elite 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 rings a little hollow all those fancy dinners with healthcare officials after declaring a state wide shut down don't exactly inspire confidence in anything newsom says and 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 u.s. 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 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 from a giant asteroid and russia's galileo institute have launched clinical trials of a joint coronavirus vaccine is combines elements of jobs developed individually by the 2 sides are to unprocessed case spoke with alexander ginsberg the director of the institute about how their vaccine differs from the others. we developed a vaccine from the start of receiving funding to registration really quite quickly in 5 months the main reason is that for 25 years or more we have been developing at the gum alay institute a technological platform on which this vaccine preparation can be made we already had a wealth of experience not only the technology of how to do it but before that we had even worked out possible concentrations we knew all the dosages needed to obtain an optimal immune response with minimal side effects. but the safety of the vaccine has been fully proven on a very similar vaccine the not identical against not only

a bowl of viruses but also the mers coronavirus so when we were working against covered 19 we were able to use around 70 percent of an existing element one of the indicators by which the effectiveness of a vaccine is most easily measured is the presence of until bodies in the blood if we proceed from that's experimental data in a similar vaccine against a bowler this protective immunity lasted for 2 years we simply didn't have a long observation period with. some of your opponents accuse you of not publishing reports on the 2nd and 3rd phases so we're about the 1st and 2nd phase as we published not just anywhere but in the lancet and it's no secret that in 3 or 4 days' time a major english language article on the results of the 3rd phase will be ready for the pfizer vaccine needs to be transported at minus 70 degrees and yours at minus $23.00 rate. minus 18 for now some months down the line i hope that we will be able

to amend the registration certificates that this vaccine can be stored not at minus 18 but to the household refrigerator temperature of plus 2. the side effects don't force you out of action there may be a rash headache muscle discomfort and i think the most noticeable effects may be your temperature going up to 38 degrees for 2 days did you take the vaccine yourself yes on march 30th along with all my employees and you're still alive not just alive but pretty active i vaccinated my 14 year old granddaughter so you violated your own instructions against vaccinating children that's outrageous you were ready to kill your entire family for the sake of a new vaccine i wasn't going to kill them but prove that the vaccine is completely safe. what is the difference between the oxford vaccine that is astra zeneca and the gamma lanes to do next in there are a lot of differences but they're not significant oxford and us to seneca went from

my point of view along the classic path of working against born pathogens our colleagues applied all the rules for creating influenza vaccines to the creation of a vaccine against covered 19 and it seems to me that the epidemiological features of this disease this pathogen were not quite accurately calculated and the people at pfizer also understand this and have made great efforts to modify the r.n.a. so that it would not be recognized as far as i understand by protective proteins but i'm not sure where the my colleagues most to solve all the problems on a large scale. health secretary has called thousands of londoners irresponsible after they opted for last minute trips outside the capital to avoid a strict lockdown some residents in the places they're playing to are not happy either we spoke to people in manchester. i think it is a little bit concerning the amount people who are excess in london called little today know i think

a lot of people lost confidence in the advice they've been given and they gave everyone a chalice know. what they were going to do for christmas so it could really on the stand how you can justify a journey but you've got to think really about the implications it does have on those people who have business it obviously people want to get to the families and 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. leaving the city of london they don't realise that it's going to spread very well in the whole of the country . and this comes after a highly infectious mutation of code that was detected in southern england and the british government's chief scientific advisor believes the new variant has already spread to other parts of the country the new variant is spread around the country is localised in some places but we know there are cases everywhere so it's not as

we can stop this getting into other places there's some there were already the message has been very clear and i think i want to reinforce it is state local in london long lines formed outside supermarkets over concerns of food shortages in the run up to christmas fears have been fuelled by a combination of factors including a potential no deal bricks it structure a lock on regulations and border closures because of that new coronavirus strain we spoke to former british m.p. george galloway he says it suspicious that the u.k. is reacting to the new strain of the virus only 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 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 diving in restaurant ito to help out they say that we're spending billions of taxpayers' money actually big house the bill in the restaurant for someone like me who could well afford to pay for their own don't know we've gone from the uk to look for this before christmas cancelling the whole thing it's been a shambles strong start to finish and they're very expensive shambles no i said the government was talking up this. in order to divert attention from its cataclysmic fillion. members of the united states space force have finally been given a name one year after the elite branch of the armed forces was created i think that after so long the us top brass would be able to come up with something truly original at some can't help but think that they took inspiration from hollywood.

soldiers sailors airmen marines and guardians will be defending our nation thanks. deb. i will be back what i just said.

russia has expanded a list of e.u. officials banned from entering the country it's a mirror sponsor to ease sanctions against russian nationals over the alleged poisoning of opposition figurehead alex and i've only r.t. reports. the worst diplomats have called the punitive measures taken by europe against individuals that the e.u. is blaming for links to the alexina volly case unlawful and unacceptable besides this moscow is stressing that the european nations behind these sanctions have not shown anything to back it up both to russia and to other e.u.

partners and so moscow has come up with the following measures in response on the basis of versa prosody the russian side has decided to expand the list to representatives of member states that are prohibited from entering the territory of the russian federation it includes doe's kind volved an escalating sanction rhetoric against russia within the on tuesday the ambassadors of sweden germany and france to moscow have been asked to pay a visit to the russian foreign ministry to be informed on russia's response to that unfriendly act by european nations that's how russia put said that is not in line with the international law according to the russian side mainly because of the e.u. nations reluctance to cooperate and to respond to the multiple requests by moscow to get the materials and details on the devolving incident and all the medical and

chemical research that has been undertaken during and following his treatment and the german sherry take clinic earlier the german foreign minister high called masa said that the sanctions were appropriate because russia failed to make any steps towards clarifying what happened with the opposition activists and like i said in response russia keeps blaming europe for complete unwillingness to cooperate with moscow on the matter a few months ago a passenger plane traveling from siberia to moscow had to urgently land because of the critical condition of a like scene of ali who was on board 1st the opposition activists was. treated and then moved to berlin where of venture leave the german doctors said that he was poisoned with a nerve agent of the novel group moscow keep sending work west to berlin demanding proof but isn't getting anything in response and one of the latest twists to the story like saying of ali and the number of western media outlets published

a report in which they blamed a group of russian secret agents for poisoning the kremlin critic that's something the russian federal security service called a provocation and firmly denied journalist thomas fassbender things there's a risk of a worsening confrontation between russia and the e.u. over the number on the case. nobody is lighting a fight between the west and russia and this gives. it provides both sides with an instrument both sides want to escalate to the emphasis is not on cooperation or solution the emphasis on is on getting the opposition and in the conflict the euro the things that mr marandi is credible you know at the european no authorities believe that they have identified the you know the gas. the nerve gas always in his body and that it was that minister of russia they they believe that the session of the evidence is enough and not the presentation to moscow as moscow requires russia

now has an easy position to not only is outside of russia to blame him and we we can see clearly see this even as a madman a complete traitor would do everything by work with anybody to damage russia i see this more coming as the coming strategy from moscow which will be met by strategy 180 degrees the opposite from the west where not only is treated as an absolutely credible political actor. dozens of employees of the guitar bass and news network al-jazeera have had their i phones hacked according to cyber security researchers in canada a team looking into the breach believes it happened on the orders of saudi arabia and the united arab emirates using israeli made spyware in july and august 2020 government operatives used n.s.o. groups pegasus spyware to hack 36 personal phones belonging to journalists producers anchors and executives at al-jazeera the journalists were hacked by 4

pegasus operators including one operator monarchy that we attribute to saudi arabia and one operator sneaky kestrel that we attribute to the united arab emirates. let's take a closer look at the israeli software firm believed to be involved and also group is known for other cyber scandals worldwide including the targeting of journalists and morocco and politicians in spain in those cases it exploited a vulnerability and whatsapp and the messenger service has since had the firm but also group says its technology is meant to be used by governments to track down terrorists and criminals in the latest al jazeera case all the targeted devices turn out to be i phones which hadn't updated to the newest operating system and other such i phones remain vulnerable to the discovered malicious code apple of course prides itself on security but technology expert roger kay says it was only a matter of time before its phones were breached apple only had

a reputation for being on hackable it wasn't ever really on people in the past. most of the focus. went to microsoft platforms because that's where all the money was but at some point in the last you know 10 even 20 years that's come out of the wilderness and become colossus and powers a lot of very interesting platforms there's also. that have been hacked i think twice now from the us. were pretty good tools get out you into the wilderness are usable. by others and can be modified by them so. socially hacking it's become kind of an industry. the u.s. congress has passed a long awaited $900000000000.00 coronavirus stimulus package it's a 2nd for at least payout sense the start of the pandemic and now it just needs to be signed off by donald trump maker struck the agreement over the weekend after

months of negotiations are to scale up and as more. 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 son of. sam laws are in agreement to the millions of small business owners who are worried their businesses would go on their help is on the 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 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 this is one story of a family that has suffered during the pandemic from the economic fallout i actually

was getting unemployment when the endemic hit so that the endemic can't and i have not been able to get any late unemployment benefits am i going to get extension so that helps but then i wasn't able to get anything else i still haven't since july i've lost my car i'm about to lose my apartment if there are 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 cove it there is also been a devastation of small businesses across the united states we've got quite a bit of frustration from democrats and republicans about all the amount of time that it took to reach a stimulus agreement and. 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 artie's boom bust co-host christine i believe that the measures won't be enough to help all americans i think this is a temporary and they just to tide us into next year essentially so this is going is really this is not enough for many americans potentially facing eviction next year is unemployment and this wave of small business closures that's not going to stand so this is a lot of measures and provisions jammed all into one proposal but the problem is 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 they vary so much unlike 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. lastly

we bring you some world news in brief. a rather noisy rally took place in barcelona where people are angry about the latest anti pandemic rules for these affected bars and restaurants and some of the demonstrators took a cheeky approach to expressing their discontent. like you know. what you just heard is locals in hawaii singing as a volcano erupted before them they had been warned to stay at home as there's been a series of minor earthquakes in the region but many clearly couldn't resist the lava spectacle. of the round up of the day's top news for now as always thanks for tuning in.

we started talking about the coin a dollar back in 2011 we've been pushing and telling people i'm out of that 10 dollars 100 dollars 1000 dollars 10000 dollars at stella buy at these new all time high prices and the new york times washington d.c. c.n.n.

we're all questioning their. conspiracy theories and dissuading folks from watching our show as a result many people around the world mexico latin america asia everywhere got it in 100 countries that are broadcasted and they have made millions we've made over one $100000.00 millionaires have declined but not so much in the u.s. because the u.s. is blinkered by its love of keynesian economics its love of the said it's love dead . greetings and sell you tell you all right all right all right here in the united states of america this week marked the release of pfizer's no f.d.a. approved vaccination against code 19 yes front line workers including doctors nurses hospital workers and senior living facility aids all across the nation stood

in line and took injections for all the world to see from kalamazoo to providence all the way down to san diego in tallahassee and while pfizer and their stockholders are now no doubt patting themselves on the back for their swift and remarkable leopard's to be the 1st in market to hit us streets with relatively few issues well you know minus the whole anna flack picked up the pen incident london let's not forget the pfizer is not the only game in town this week the f.d.a. will be announcing their ruling on mcdermott's covert vaccination and it's now being reported that astra's uneek. is to start clinical trials to test a combination of its experimental coronavirus vaccine with russia's sputnik 5 shot to see if this can boost the efficacy of the british drug makers vaccine but before we all jump up and down roll up our sleeves and cry.
