their own performances some question whether the whole movement has got too far. good evening and welcome to the program this is art international coming to you live from the russian capital bring you your live news update. new york governor andrew cuomo has announced fines of up to a 1000000 dollars for corona virus a vaccine for odd that's after police open a criminal probe into a medical center believed to have obtained a covert shots illegally we want to send a clear signal to the providers that if you run the law on these vaccinations we will find out you will be prosecuted. new york police believe the park care community health network applying for distribution rights by frantically claiming it was a legitimate clinic as art is

a ghost town of reports there are fears that new types of vaccine could develop. in 2020 v is for vaccine after months of trials and tribulations they've left the labs for the global market and dozens more are on the way this paints a picture of abundance but the reality couldn't be further from the truth the hope had been the jobs would crush the virus before christmas. birth. but it's a free market and for the right money demand will always be satisfied with supply cue the dark web the internet's underbelly a silk road for drug traffickers weapons smugglers document forgers and other

business that falls on the wrong side of the law now priced at several $100.00 a short vials claiming to contain a vaccine against covert 19 have filled virtual shelves in the u.s. a whole homeland security squad has been tasked with prowling shady marketplaces anytime to something new out there any way the scammer can exploit consumers they will interpol is warning that criminal gangs could raid stockpiles as governments are preparing to roll out vaccines criminal organizations are planning to infiltrate or disrupt supply chains another scam targets the most vulnerable the elderly with phone calls luring them into fake vaccine appointments the most gullible. also falling for these adverts on take talk a social network even though vaccine passports don't exist yet even legitimate

medical institutions have been suspected of fraudulently obtaining and distributing jabs like this new york based provider though it denies any wrongdoing i think we overrate you're good at the state to look after us there are so many individuals and also organized crime networks out there that are looking to make a big bucks out of any situation south of course you will have people in the dark we're willing to sell your mother's milk we're going to try to steal the information to make drugs the whole point of this is so criminals work across the world so your criminals are operating in parts of europe that are also linked up with people in the middle east and also in southeast asia and of course that makes it very difficult for individual priests in countries to eschew a determine where this stuff is coming from we have the same issue with the drugs

trade and and we've never been able to solve that problem it's all about protecting ourselves from covert 19 but before most of us make a socially distanced queue to get a vaccine there's another dark virus below this. european union has formally launched a mass vaccination campaign against covered 1000 medics and the elderly are 1st in line to get the child but there are plenty of challenges as are paris correspondent charlotte difference he explains. there's a. lot sort of task it's hoping to a little late as many as possible of the blocks 150 citizens over the next the levels so far only women vaccine has been approved for use this is the 1st . take vaccine now it comes with its own set of difficulties mainly in how it needs to be stored because this vaccine has to be kept at

a temperature of 70 degrees celsius that's essentially freeze temperature to make sure that the vaccine removes active and you scoop and there are concerns that if that temperature is a met the perception in this vaccine will become a variable moon won't be able to look in 8 people. i mean maybe better being difficulties remove these temperature issues around with respect seemed after the shipment of timber there in germany and medical staff there question to make just the temperature being kept in june that delivery that is so high or to be packaged the senshi some of the various of rocks in the relevant packages or the new mini used the picnics in germany as such they just said i didn't just remember there were but in several cities that they would be really let back see if there is even the slightest chance that the vaccine does not meet the quality criteria 100 percent the batch will not be deployed with that solution

rewrite starting over the weekend with. difficulties due to those temperature problems the 2nd to move really the same the e.u. countries the spanish health ministry suggesting that arrived at european countries hadn't received the 2nd shipment. and that was because there were several times with the delivery trucks and keeping that temperature mainly to deliver the vaccines there's a listen to what the spanish health ministry had to say spain indicates that it has been informed by his factory in belgium of the doing shipments to 8 european countries including spain due to a problem in the load in and shipping process through various 2nd shipments lose steam space to choose to put it some more just being. broome's they regret temperatures and storage of the vaccine in chaman who at some cave or the some of the 1st to receive the spam is

a better tech maxime with kids and doses accidentally of the vaccine and that's because the various look the specs even is asked to do and so choose to different countries that is don't you see is a phrase we were asked we don't have to the right group of foods administered so every 8 characters receiving food additional doses of the vaccine so far memory reported to have suffered that we see your side effects but food were taken to hospital for observation after developed some flu symptoms this in fact is a boon to vaccine is the only room soon for a approved by the e.u. has sort of stockpiled to put in a dozen flu moves into says of some of the of the vaccines that are being developed but it looks like there would be approval for those vaccines intimately wix week where the e.u. is set to meet to discuss that. france will decide on tuesday whether or not to reimpose the lockdown it lifted for christmas the country now has more than 2 and

a half 1000000 confirmed cases and $63000.00 deaths almost $3000.00 new infections have been registered in the last day alone and medical experts fear another spike after the holidays as fewer people got tested and reported symptoms over the festive period the government's also recommended care homes let families visit over the new year break but sabrina bellary the daughter of an 81 year old care home resident post an appeal to french authorities on social media warning that such non-binding recommendations aren't enough. we don't have access to our parents room since august 12th since october residents aren't allowed to go outside you've introduced easing of restrictions and we're grateful for that but in our nursing home that does not extend for the whole holiday period and residents are still banned from going outside but nursing homes are warning that relaxing visiting rules could aggravate an already dire situation our port earlier this month revealed that up to

a 3rd of all covert deaths happen in such facilities but sabrina dollery who we just heard from believes that following a failing to relax the rules could be even more dangerous don't. many of those who reported covert symptoms were infected through medical workers most nursing homes are only alone visits and receiving rooms there are like rooms for jail visits visits are only permitted when pre-show jeweled counted in minutes under supervision in a common room in some cases even through glass and of course masks in some cases you can't touch a girl near your relatives i asked to allow my mother who feels like she's stuck in prison into the courts yet i've been asking from the start i've done hunger strikes sit ins at the health ministry i was received at the prime minister's residence i received an email from mrs mccrone who also tried to help me we often ask for help through the media but we're still waiting for orders instead of recrimination currently more elderly people die from slipping over again from paul that all the residents in our nursing home are physically and mentally exhausted that is

irreversible damage. my friend's father was tough and healthy and frequently went outside yet today he's wearing nablus because he spent so much time locked up he's given up from grief and despair and doesn't leave his about. politicians worldwide are calling on people to stay home over the new year break to avoid yet another wave of covert infections artist demeter broke reports. it's that time of year that wishes are meant to come true a popular one being that 2021 is going to kick over it in the cab the time of year when we all come together and celebrate the best way to celebrate new year is not celebrated at all we can't risk putting the country under weeks of restrictions because of just one night christmas has ended and everyone's in panic mode over a possible 3rd wave of infections several countries have already imposed maximum

restrictions for austrian israel it's round 3 of lockdown this is a chance to avoid the food will you please do everything we can so that it does not he does as with visits and if isolation at home wasn't bad enough code has apparently evolved seemingly 1st detected in the u.k. and the mutation has spread from the americas to asia while countries shut their borders to british travelers hundreds already on skiing holiday in switzerland apparently gave the authorities and corrine seen the slip. many of them stayed in quarantine for a day before they left a notice on the cover of darkness it was when they saw the mill trace remains untouched that the hotel leaders noticed that the customers had gone but if you do decide to celebrate this year there are some key rules to follow to exam hands on so it was you do it should drinks with those as the new year kisses and hugs should only be shared with those in your immediate family and if you are thinking of

catching some fireworks don't even bother going out it's all restricted canceled or moving online. but despite all the warnings and restrictions health officials don't seem to think any of it will actually prevent people from doing what they always do if you put more pressure on the system by what might be a post seasonal surge because of the travelling and the likely congregating of people it's very tough for people to not do that whether you stay home this new

year's eve or celebrate it with family and friends apparently 2021 might get a lot worse before it gets better. 2020 has been a challenging year for pretty much everyone including hollywood film stars who are rushing to say sorry for their own performances are to supply boycott takes a closer look 2020 has been a hot yeah fact is now oneself is more in the one wild than act is and celebrities. professional pretenders trying to engage with intellectual debate is a great well it's great for a half actually. these are people who have to look like a few manatee well all the cinema going humanity but if they loved anyone but themselves they probably wouldn't be celebrities in the 1st place this year the oscars announced that in order to get one of those gold

statuette you've got to have underrepresented ethnic groups among the leading cost the crew and the marketing department so that was a tough start for the luvvies but they don't actually all fall into the same category so for every 7 whimpering apologists cough cough which even phoenix. there are some people wondering won't but hell is going on and why themselves in take. this year of college ised for playing nina simone in a 2016th film and she never even you know she said that she wasn't black enough to play the iconic singer she's blonde but she's not black enough and she would never leave you know the way felt moved to apologize to people with limb differences because she played the grand high wage in the witches and had fewer than 5 fingers

and toes. when the remake of the movie the witches was released portraying the main character who is missing fingers as evil and scary so what we've learned in 2020 is that no one should play any roles unless they all those roles. you've got a problem acting just ain't what it used to be but when it gets really bad is when you get several actors together for a clue. good cause who can forget they screen show this is that she is signaling that should ever be allowed in one place. is not. easy to. the go with the imagine video was a butchering of john lennon in the name of south aggrandizement.

oh it was actually an attempt to make people feel better sharing the global pandemic but it really only made things worse so many people were vomiting in response to it that it looked like a symbol of the coronavirus symptom of the final word goes to chains of woods known for his own lovey like lean to the right. his one what reaction to the oscars planned for in force diversity madness. in the your ass we're already getting a glimpse of how things might shape up when joe biden takes office in january now it's been revealed the brother of one of biden's closest advisers has secured a lobbying contract with online giant amazon jeff or shut it registered to lobby for amazon just after the presidential election his brother steve formerly a lobbyist himself will soon serve as

a top white house counselor sources close to the siblings and sis they will not be mixing family and business however jeff has never and will never lobby his brother on behalf of any of his clients and sieved had no role in his brother's business since he sold his stake in the firm in 2012 stephen just keep their professional activities distinctly separate we spoke to who we are rivera from the online news outlet reactionary times dot com who believes the lobbying post is far from a coincidence. of course there's going to be conversations that take place between the brothers regarding amazon's interest and the fact that you know one of the brothers it has a direct line into the president but this is something you know the the institution of lobbying is sort of thing that's going to come under fire and under more scrutiny because it's joe biden as president and we already know all you know what out there what hunter biden has done internationally we even have the progressive within joe biden's own party looking deeper into the situation in addition to

republicans watching the activities of the biden in the street in regard to lobbying the progressive side are you know the elizabeth warren's and even in the house the whole season people like that or already keeping an eye on what the activities are between the by the administration when any incoming hire isn't near formally also worked in the lobbying. and more infectious strain of co that 1st detected in the u.k. has now been found in sweden has come as stockholm considers whether or not to impose a lockdown marking a break from the country's earlier hands off approach which the government and mits was a failure. very serious situations the government may decide on more far reaching measures to prevent crowding that would include the closure of shops public transport shopping centers or other activities covered by the law the hunger we are talking about certain types of trading places with the risk of spreading the

disease is assessed as high and where there is a lot of crowding. so even the approach to the pandemic differed from most other countries until recently ever lived on voluntary social distancing while avoiding shutdowns public life remained largely unaffected a move criticized by neighboring countries even shut their borders at certain points the founder of swedish professors and doctors for human rights believes new restrictions are essential. to india westerly beginning to protect the economy business and of course. hard industry excedrin going to be enormous they spend their money. there they will not be drawn to close the schools because in that case the 25 percent of the labor force will be temporary last forced sort of study image which are going to meet there are not to say the most notable to look down and strict measures it's the only way to at least try to

do. both their morbidity and mortality produced by these failures you will insult this situation with more and more measures you need to and i was trying to alter the strategy you need to qualitative change here and not in 10 overs 22000000 in a stress in a basin not name it is to declining but to say lives i mean it should be you know it has to be the human rights. perspective and they will think you know if we're here to do to save lives. over us of antibiotics to fight co that could accelerate the spread of so-called superbugs the world health organization has highlighted a significant rise in got a real a sexually transmitted bacterial infection orning it could become incurable. microbial resistance may not seem as a pandemic but it is just as dangerous it threatens to unwind

a century of medical progress and levi's defenseless against infections that today can be treated easily. and about excuse for gonorrhea have been given out to treat inflammatory symptoms following code infection that's reportedly allowed other bacteria to build resistance creating super bugs that could become untreatable we talked to a leading your all of us about the overuse of such medicines. from iris is not stupid. and or a bacteria is not stupid it gets no it gets used to a certain antibiotic treatment regimen and this problem of antibiotic resistance has been around and has been increasing over the years without the pendennis as well and for sure what the pandemic has done is that the patients don't go to the doctor anymore because they're scared of going to the doctor because thinking if you do it if they go to the hospital or if they do go for example to a doctor's office they may get a virus because obviously patients will be sitting there this is

a wrong assumption if patients are cig you should still go to the doctor does is very important secondly i think we should still be careful about resistance in general and this same remedy that we had a year ago or 2 years ago is still true today the old use antibiotic the problem of resistance is through over use of antibiotics for irrelevant or minor infections and this is the problem this is the problem it was 2 years ago and is still a problem today. lastly we bring you some world news in brief thousands of pro-life activists have taken to the streets across argentina against a new bill to legalize abortions if passed by the senate it will give argentina the most liberal abortion laws in south america. rights have broken out in chile during an anniversary tribute to a protester killed and their progress crackdown last we are security forces hired

at water cannon on demonstrators hurled rocks at police fans it's the latest any wave of unrest that started as a protest against a hike and. public transport fares and spiraled into a revolt against upholding. and palestinian farmers are celebrating a long awaited return to their lands after 46 years of occupation by israeli settlers as comes 4 years after an israeli court allowed the farmers to reclaim their property some of them share their emotions after the homecoming. like this is an indescribable feeling our land was confiscated and cultivated by israeli settlers and we were banned from entering. the valley as i learned from our fathers and grandparents who a bug from coming in for the israelis who say i don't die young ones for gets we have not forgotten we will teach this listen to our children until the last metre of palestine is liberated that's a news break down for now and that's all for me as well today but we're not saskia

taylor will be taking over at the top of the hour thanks for tuning in every maybe . when else chokes seem wrong. but also just don't call. me. yet to say proud just to come out to call and engage with equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. americans love.

this was a fundamental part of how our political leadership and our country at large understood the bargain you get a hope and then you know rebel right that's the things you don't revolt if you have a stake in the system. and think about the longer deeper history housings men in the united states not just that question of the american dream but the bigger question of who the dream is for. this sport is nothing like football. it's not a money spinner but it is expensive. and it's dangerous

. this is on the speedway. and they have no brakes it's a. trip that some people. an entire village in alaska has had to move if another country threaten to wipe out an american town. we do everything in our power to protect. wanted a escaping climate change poses the same threat right now alaska has seen some of the fuss just coastal erosion in the world lost about 35 feet. 35 feet of ground in just about 3 months while we were measuring.

a recent episode of our long form podcast called orangeville podcast we described america as we see it today as the grapes of gatsby and that is that we have the economic collapse of the great depression of the thirty's for most people but we have the roaring twenty's of the stock market booms for the top one percent would you agree with this assessment absolutely i mean i think what we're having is rooted extraordinary. where you have extreme bubbles in different markets that are not indicative of what's going on in means me on main street and in main across america so i think what we have is it is a fundamental disconnect and i think the media is not covering the story they're missing which is even a bigger problem because people lost trust in the government to remedy things and people lost trust in the media to tell the truth you said something there interesting you said running an incredible time warp now in financial markets

there's a way to value time it's called interest rates and what we've seen in the last few years is this trend towards 0 percent interest rates and even make it of interest rates is close to 20 trillion now in sovereign debt around the world with a negative enter stray so explain to me how this all works because you just meant the time warp and i get we're at a time warp and it's clear we are looking at interest rates and how did it get that way. because it's not a make an homage policy it's never been done in the history of economics who's behind this who's doing this to study economics at this point it's something else is going on better explain please you have the skin cut off which we've been talking about for years that's been running several jurors and mr gold will central bank policies have been absolutely bizarre and it's been planned bizarre if kept interest rates in store clothes because they need to service the in or the hundreds of trillions of dollars in debt that's the new crew so.
