the world events of markets see anywhere except here for mitt welcome back. headlining this monday as full intensive care units force california clinics to set up makeshift wards and beds outdoors one nurse tells us just how bad the situation is getting. worse start now we were running low on oxygen on supplies he have patients in overflow overflow overflow areas. vaccination with covert job starts for people over 60 years of age the group most affected by the virus after the health ministry has approved the jobs safety and efficacy. as coronavirus vaccination rolls out across europe to its citizens hugely divided on the issue. i think we do not have enough feedback on the specs and at the moment i

think everyone should take it because that's the only way we're going to have enough. get out of problem. either just to midday in moscow this 28th of december live from r.t. international's world news age q kevin 0 in here for the next 30 minutes great to have you company by the way so 1st that as you heard in the headlines to los angeles county in the u.s. that place recalling more than 30000 new covert infections in the last 2 days alone even hospitals struggling to cope across southern california intensive care units of 4 with overwhelmed hospitals setting up makeshift outdoor wards and beds county even reportedly sent out rationing guidelines for clinics to give less care to those less likely to survive is still unclear whether or not those guidelines were implemented as of today this month one nurse filled an emotional appeal while

battling coronavirus herself. through home. you don't need a girl. remember. nurse marcy. who told us the situation is a breaking point. we're stuck now we were running low on oxygen on supplies on you know all the respiratory drugs definitely bad definitely staff we don't have enough staff we are beyond stretched we have patients in overflow overflow overflow areas that were never intended to have patients other hospitals are setting out makeshift units outside of the hospital our government they blew it all so they could have released to the defense production act and ramped up the

production of p.p. and all the other supplies that we need and they didn't do that so the whole the whole nations in a big big predicament of how we're going to be able to treat patients safely and give them the care that they need yes so officials issuing a say for the whole border to try and stop the virus apart from emergencies gatherings for anything other than political or religious purposes a band most not essential companies are being forced to shut the city mayors urged people to think twice about their plans over the festive period there's no celebrating this year for health care workers who are facing the toughest times they've ever seen for them with staying home for them we're skipping holiday parties every sacrifice makes a difference to stopping the covert $1000.00 surge. again blaming public recklessness for out of control infections. i can't even imagine what it be like to

be a governor right now the state. especially california california is a powerhouse right it's got the 6th largest economy in the world and. the fact that you know businesses are shutting down you have a lot of very vocal californians and and they were giving him a tremendous amount of pressure to open up and i understand that but you could open up safely and people just weren't big saving why i would drive by bars and people would have their masks off and there be it be densely densely crowded and then you hear people like running out homes and having parties where there's 1000 people there so it's the public it's us it's the ignorance of the human being we continue to. defy the recommendations of the c.d.c. we continue to gather and i understand how important holidays are there just as important for me i haven't seen my family in mind it's terribly serious and people

need to understand that you have to be careful and it doesn't matter your age it doesn't matter yes it dies it does it matters your age and your cum or biddies but there's plenty of younger people that have died from this. russia has registered 27000 new cases in the last alone older people of new people susceptible as we've heard with almost half the people catching the virus here in moscow over the age of 46 however one persons prover that there is hope no matter your age story next them from central russia the disease has been defeated by one really brave lady who's reached an amazing special land. i don't know what the secret of my recovery ends but i know that we need to keep calm and preserve our nerves.

she was hospitalized in a relatively severe condition she was upbeat 10 responded well to treatment she recovered quickly she felt really precious to us and we monitored her around the clock. to because. we're grateful to the doctors she's an optimist and radiates positivity that's why she's made us happy for store it is. a good job well cogan vaccination programs are rolling out worldwide and here in russia the elderly are starting to get the sputnik indeed at the weekend the health ministry broaden its priority list for the shop to include those over the age of 16 now after safety and efficacy tests were concluded frontline workers had been 1st

in line to get it this month earlier on. early this morning at a moscow vaccination center the briefing me. of course it's finally great to get some good news about kolb it at last vaccination centers in moscow including at the clinic where i am right now are getting more busy because the program is kicking off and i can tell you that here i've already spoken to the 1st person from that age group 60 plus to get the job. i love to finally take off my most can future thing that i have seen me let me do that so monday is definitely a milestone here in russia because pretty much anyone from that age group 60 plus at least in the russian capital could get enrolled and that case most likely forget about everything that we've become so sick and tired of this year and

that explains why the moscow mayor is proud and happy and by the way has been vaccinated to the russian ministry of health has approved the opportunity for the older generation to be vaccinated against code 19 but the sputnik the jap it's great elderly people at the biggest risk group which is the most severely affected by the disease starting monday we're opening registration for vaccination i can say so myself they really would so the program is kicking off exactly 2 days after the russian ministry of health gave the green light for the vaccination of the elderly people and i can tell you that the clinical trials for this age group have showed that it's safe and pointed to 90 percent efficacy that is despite earlier criticism from some experts that we're talking about the high likelihood of side effects which include fever muscle pain and headaches and it's been reported

that about 15 percent of those who get the job could face the sides effects but again clinical trials at the end of. they are saying that despite the people who go for the job everything will be ok and that's again definitely a breakthrough the people that will really have to watch out for the side effects are those with allergies and quantico illnesses so before making the decision on whether to get vaccinated or not you really have to go through a very serious medical checkup and this is exactly what i asked the head of this clinic about a little earlier there and if you could look at some nations screening is common practice a person undergoes the same examination before the flu vaccine it's done to exclude risks from acute illness or if it's you know a g.'s and to measure temperature as mothers to assess health in terms of chronic disease if people fit the criteria we include them in the vaccination group. so it's obvious though that there are many many people who have still not made up

their mind on whether they should get the job or not but definitely an extra confidence boost for them will be the fact that we heard from a lot of more potent secretary that the russian president will get vaccinated as well and we know that he is part of that age group as well the russian leader is 68 years old so that's the position here meantime the e.u. is loaded across a border vaccination program with a target of inoculating all adults in 2021 contracts have been secured with suppliers for more than 2000000000 vaccine doses however polls point to is only would say there is well high levels of hesitancy towards the shot still paula sleeze in france where the battle against the pandemic is complicated by both at the moment the lack of vaccines and also this skepticism over the. 1000000 that if they make that number of people that own parents are vaccinated by the end of.

the focus now nursing homes like this one and other facilities where. vulnerable individuals and emergency workers the. just in line to say the vaccination is the only way to stop the virus the people here in france a split on the issue just above all similar i'm not really favor i think we do not have enough feedback on this vaccine at the moment and even if it can save lives maybe it will be could to wait a little leadership to know that i am for vaccines normally it takes 10 years of research and testing but in this case as the vaccine has been readied very quickly i have an experience i would do it for me if. i was really the person to do read or if i had to do it to trouble i think everyone should take it because that's the only way we're going to have enough herd immunity to get out of the problem so i don't see a need to have the vaccination i probably wouldn't have one recent poll suggests that about half the population is against to be inoculated and it's not just me and

2 vets museum and there are real fears that the vaccination has nothing takes to popping in the u.k. and us the number of people who have developed a severe and moujik reaction to the vaccination as has happened in other countries and then on top of that there is a general mistrust to the government something we took the population field at present upon fumbled his way for the fix the way you do people here feel that paris has its hand on top of things now overcrowded here it's so one thing a day another that we have been existing i think it's easy to criticize we're not in their shoes i think we might have a harder lockdown and maybe not that people close so free over christmas i can't say they did a good job or a bad job i think they just did what they could work out schools people and there is a lot of sick people as a result we don't have that in the media and in the tombs from

futurism all this is really difficult because one of virus is europe's worst public health disaster. in over a century as you can see winter when the 3rd wave is already upon us even our hoping that this latest roll out here in unity and healthy but 19000000 vaccinations is only a small fraction of the 17 odd 1000000 adults here in front over the age of 60 if that is the way that paris plans to eat this elite of virus it needs to act and act fast policia r.t. paris. 60 seconds or next to take you around the world in brief hundreds of ultra-orthodox jews have blocked traffic in israel over the arrest of a religious student who refused to join the army 13 protesters were detained one officer injured by rocks thrown by a protester illustrators hurled glass bottles at police they responded in turn with water cannon to try and break it all up. news from russia russia's emergencies

ministry's looking for 17 fishermen today missing off the northern coast after a trawler sank in the icy barren sea 2 fishermen have been rescued but there are fears that the rest of the crew may not have made it the search operations being complicated by bad weather which is stopping rescue planes from getting to the area officials at that ice accumulation they believe led to the sinking of the vessel. or battles with bad weather thousands of refugees warned they will survive a freezing winter without shelter after a major come amid a snowstorm in bosnia and herzegovina aid groups that frostbite hypothermia and other severe health problems are already being reported by the people stranded. we'll keep you posted and coming up here after the break i hope you can stick around we'll look deeper into the affects of the gear of covert on france coming up .

join me every 1st week on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guest of

the world of politics or business i'm sure i'll see that. if. i get out of 1000000 from coronavirus to black lives matter 20 twentieth's but a year of historic stories both but mostly good. boy could takes a look at the response to famous names whose views though on those issues go against the conventional wisdom. frontlines of the culture wars in 2020 not everyone gave up on the practice of insulting everyone and not carrying these red beasts who faced.

basically this is it there was something about when i put this handle and maybe through like superman kanye west with with a mind that's based on a freedom and 1st of all just doing something that everybody tells you not to do london had teacher katherine bubbles saying gives 0. count the box why the local races when faced with the idea of putting down statues and colonizing the curriculum she gave a reply that came straight from your granddad and now we're talking about the colonizing the curriculum it is not about the colonizing curriculum it's about getting good behavior in our schools how can you support a social justice warrior these days well just church here and. they spend so much time meeting down against racism that there's hardly any skin

left so guess what happened when basketball legend charles barkley said you know greed is a very slippery slope. because. if you don't know you will this lead to quite a few of those caring people to get off all steadies and declare buckley a racist who was only speaking up for his white ghost buddies must know what i want to say get it get on to your knees or they'll come for you. nick cave said it best when he said political correctness is guys we got here and happy to make anyone else who did the congo i think really bad really good random luck want to meet caveman me well let me explain using the giants of the intellectual dark web. when maggette point cost. his show over to spotify earlier this year for something

like. people at the company said that they were so upset that he wasn't being censored and that they were alienated by his views did you see that guy accidently hit his car now. pull the video. oh my god oh my god oh my god they demanded we're p.t.a. meetings with management you know this is probably overinflated all that spotify stuff is is just complete fodder they have literally said nothing to me write about it it was a similar story. george and pietists reportedly start with the company that was publishing his latest book was so that it was being published that they ended up being. m.m.a. scrap turned actress gina carano frankly don't want to get into a fight with. has been expressing the wrong kind of politics she doesn't think the election is over she doesn't like face mosques and now her

opponents have started. to fire gina carano. 2020 the year there was no if you enjoy it you might want to read this political correctness taken over multinationals as well with some companies he could speak to a student nations to fashionable causes one to find out more. what we're talking about the year that's really going most of us went through a lot worried life changing of governments didn't always keep up with it zoning in the ghetto france which struggled through like many nations but that is also coping with its own other unique problems dubrovsky reports from paris. when 2020 or roy was hailed as a double digit see as something that was pretty special that only happens every 100 years or so well special it certainly walls.

by the end of the month we had an inkling that things were about to get worse or worse. be kind of. a pandemic. the fashion industry soon was doing was it does best for dictating what we would all soon be wearing mosques soon they wore hot property arrests for selling contraband mosques became headline news as the government requisition the role for health authorities. during the 1st wave nurses had to deal with not only the coronavirus epidemic but with the shortage of mosques gloves and overcoats we ended up wearing trash bags at

a time when everyone was supposed to be fighting the pandemic we were left without the means of doing so there was a lack of equipment and the french government was responsible for that they should have been strategic stocks of surgical masks and other gear now if things really started to go downhill france and the states 1st looked on the borders were closed like this we worked in the stadiums in the sea a terrace we ensure security in the event sector and since march everything's been stopped and it still hasn't resumed all the hotels were closed there were very very few hotels open during the 1st wave the hotels that stayed open did so to accommodate people in difficulties. but there was an enormous amount of worry and would. didn't have the sense of being heard alone can find spring left to many with pent up energy as restrictions eased up health care workers filled the streets fear

is being underpaid and under appreciated. as summer drew to an end the warnings of the 2nd wave won't fade leaving the 1st philby yet parents took action introducing mass commissions as record actions were registered then as the closures began again anger was palpable. but government promised these measures would be enough they would be new who were turn to a 2nd lockdown instead a curfew that promise fell like a pack of cards before the month was what. did it start to feel like the after

consultation with scientists dialogue with economic political and social players and after exchanges with all of our partners and weighing the pros and cons i've decided that as of friday we need to go back to the lockdown that stopped the virus . but i know businesses were really feeling the squeeze a lot. for us 2020 was a horrible year and we have the impression that 2021 is going to be even worse our biggest problem in the catering industry is that there is no recovery date and no restart date. and there is a there are inconsistences and how things were decided it has been said that there are certain sectors started were able to raise you that's not a problem but it's the other start are paying it's absurd well. still got the other things are still very bad because we have asked to restart our work but we can't we have to continue paying our expenses except there is no money coming back to us there's nothing in fact that's france headed into the winter it still wasn't out of

the woods. or. nursing staff learned from the 1st wave we can now take better care of patients but the government has failed to learn its lessons there is the problem of hospital bed shortages and lack of means to deal with the virus and during the partial lockdown we saw the 35 percent of infection cost is in education institutions but the government did nothing about that there were serious mistakes by the government and it makes us question our confidence in the authorities as the true to an end restrooms pause the it is museums all remain shells of their former selves a fresh could if it was announced in france finds itself facing an uncertain future as the bells ringing for 2021 charlotte r.t. paris and the bells are ringing me up for now that's a wrap of what we're talking about so far international if you want to catch up on the breaking news as what happens straight to mobile device one or download our up
