fortunately claiming it was a legitimate clinic but as a t.v. cost on a report there are fears that new types of vaccine for what 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 they 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 and the time to do something new out there anyway the scammer can exploit consumers they will interpol is warning that criminal gangs could raid stockpiles as governments are preparing to roll. 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 are also falling for these adverts on take talk
1:04 pm
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. 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 big bucks out of any situation of course you'll have people in the dark willing to sell your mother's milk willing to try to steal the information to make drugs the whole point of this is 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
1:05 pm
countries to actually 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. we're opinion has formally launched a mass vaccination campaign against kovac 19 medics the elderly there 1st in line but distributing a job is proving to be a highly complex task our path correspondent sanity bensky reports on it all. there's a whoops vaccination. it's a massive task it's hoping to move to late as many as possible of the blitz 150 moon citizens over the next few minutes and so far only when vaccine has been approved for use this is the phase
1:06 pm
a better take vaccine now it comes with its own set of difficulties mainly in how it needs to be stored because this spec scene 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 use food and there are concerns that if that temperature is a met the dissension in this vaccine will become and the reverend moon won't be able to locate people. i mean maybe by being difficulties remove these temperature issues surrounding respects even after the shipment of timber vary in germany and medical staff there question to make just the temperature of the being kept in june that to be very high or to be packaged the senshi some of the values of reaction to the rev impact which is of the newsroom really used the picnics in germany as such they just said i didn't just in bavaria but in several cities that they would be
1:07 pm
really let that 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 right step 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 countries hadn't received the 2nd ship limbs. and that was because there were problems with the delivery trucks and keeping that temperature when we may have to deliver the vaccines there's a mission to help. spanish health ministry had to say spain indicates that it has been informed by its factory in belgium of the doing shipments to 8 european countries including spain due to a problem in deluding and shipping process through various 2nd shipments least in spook due to choose to but it's just been pretty broome's temperatures in stewards
1:08 pm
of the vaccine in germany who simply came with the some of the 1st to receive the spares a better take that seem clear. to him says accidentally of the vaccine when that's because the various look the specs even asked to do and so to 2 different countries is don't you see is a phrase we do have to be diluted to the right group of foods administered. 8 characters receiving food additional doses of the vaccine so far memory reported to have suffered that we see you are said to fix the food were taken to hospital for observation after be developed some flu symptoms this is a boon to vaccine is the only one soon fred approved by the e.u. has sort of stockpiled to put one who doesn't feel moves into says of some of the of the vaccines that are being developed but it looks like there will be mere approval for those vaccines into the least week to week where the e.u.
1:09 pm
is set to meet to discuss that was we just heard from la t.v. french government is considering they thought national lockdown after a spike in covert infections official data showed almost $3000.00 new infections on monday but medics say a lack of testing over the christmas period obscures the true figure which it is says is likely to be much higher while the government has recommended that cap homes allowed visitors over the new year break bought sabrina to marry the daughter of an 81 year old kevin bradford and posted an appeal to frontal forty's on social media warning messages non-binding recommendations simply aren't enough. don't have access to our parents' roof since august 12th since october residents aren't allowed to go outside of 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 while nursing homes are warning for that part that relaxing visiting rules could already dire
1:10 pm
situation a report earlier this month revealed that up to a father volkova deaths happen in such facilities but submitted to larry who we just heard from believes that failing to relax the rules could be even more dangerous. don't. you know it doesn't many of those who reported covert symptoms were infected through medical workers most nursing homes are only learn visits in receiving rooms there are visits visits are only permitted when pressure jeweled counted in minutes under supervision in a common room in some cases even through the glass and of course masks in some cases you can't touch your girl near your relative yes hello my mother who feels like she's stuck in prison into the courtyard 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 of received an email from this is mccrone who also tried to help me we often ask for help through the media but we're still waiting for orders
1:11 pm
instead of recommendations currently more elderly people die from slipping over a dent from paul that other residents in our nursing home are physically and mentally exhausted that is irreversible damage my friend's father was tough and healthy and frequently run outside yet today he's wearing nappies because he spent so much time locked up he's given up from grief and despair and doesn't leave his. top health officials in the u.k. have expressed extreme concern over covert cases with the daily records of more than 53000 set for 2 days in a row and there's now a rush to get hold of vaccines where the wealthy people reportedly offering to pay thousands of pounds for a shot but as things stand out of luck the job can only be received through the national health service for free the pfizer biotech drug was approved in the u.k. earlier this month and all available doses are going to people in hospitals over the age of 80 frontline medics and care home staff that means obviously
1:12 pm
a potentially long wait for everybody else and private clinics say that getting requests from patients willing to fork out large songs to jump the queue. what speak now we're hearing of one such clinic in cash in the u.k. that stopped a russian revenge good to have you on next to speaking twice 1st off i want to ask you can you tell us a bit about these requests for kovacs and so what kind of people are asking for them how much they're willing to pay is it a pub or what is it all in the open house at how is that happening. to be on. i will say it's like normal people and it has not really differentiated between the rich and the poor i have a clinic in wilmslow which is an affluent area and some of the people asking their parents have died or a parent is dark and they're wondering how can i get the box today now i have been
1:13 pm
offered large sums to try and circumvent and see whether we can get the vaccine because. of it as we know goes on in this country that the government has bought the vaccine and there is no way to circumvent it but people are looking for a measure of control when we're in the middle of a great condom equip and control is very difficult to come by and you know i think everyone you know would like to have the vaccine and even as agent and she comes with this i want to pick off and use the word inequality that do you think that this race for the vaccine the distribution of it will see inequalities grow not just between the haves and the have nots between people but between countries as well. and i think we've definitely seen that and we've seen that with the initial purchase of the vaccine that. the developed countries have been left behind and it's actually what i say to my clients not only do we need to do the most vulnerable patients in the u.k. europe and the developed world but then the developing countries who need to get
1:14 pm
hold of the vaccine and only then when governments aren't giving it to those most vulnerable will we see come into force of potentially problem drivers playing a role in helping out. as we know in screening providers in screening and so i assume that will be the same case with the vaccine in the future we obviously know is that he said a bit earlier that supplies are limited and if that were possible to buy doses that would mean that for example a more vulnerable person would have to go without do you think that those people who have the means to be able to try and get a vaccine sort of on the sly i even thinking about the person who's not going to get the vaccine even though they might need it more. i think at this moment they're thinking about themselves their family their safety that they're looking to approach it with their best interests people want to be safe people are scared. i
1:15 pm
think they would never want to take it away from the most vulnerable and the for the whole point of private proclamation is not so much someone goes without it's trying to see whether our access can come it's a superior it's i think if i said to them are you know this needs go to the most vulnerable they would be very understanding but often actually they are looking to purchase for someone vulnerable as well. you know we've seen people passing away and parents passing away and you know code that doesn't differentiate between. inequality it's all so. you know i do think you know people love to sit in the queue if possible but they can't do by any means because you need the vaccine records need be the passport as it were and so hospital of what you talk about these people wanting the back you've also talked about how you've rejected these requests you have a good moral compass but do you think that that is a market that's just right up for exploitation 'd here and some sort of black
1:16 pm
market potentially from developing. we saw with screening. there was not some great not great critics coming up charging obscene prices for screening and i didn't agree with that i actually got hold of tests very early on and passed on 3 and tested in interest where i could myself but some i know one complete i made i think it was over a 1000000 in 2 weeks now that they have taken film because they were offering private screening so there will always be the small fee that may try and take advantage because i have to believe in the human connection human will that good will prevail and i think in general most drug fighters have a good moral compass and want to help out when the n.h.s. would say can you help us now but i think you know just in everything not they'll be those few that may try and take advantage of the system but at this moment it's very difficult because you would need to sign a covert passport to say i have had the vaccine and would have to go through official means he is the watch obscene prices not the way we will proceed the day
1:17 pm
for the going to n.h.s. run establishment now if he made it back to become available privately he think we will see clinics hiking up the prices and trying to cash in here. i think it depends how it's released if they feel a bit like the antibody test things and very slowly people can charge high amounts not saying they should but they can and people will. think if it's in a controlled manner you know how by the m.r.i. shayan can become fingered to the product and is then it will be more sex as you see now with screening the process of screening now for covert is very sets across the board but those you can get the early squire have a choice of what they do and you know my worry is if you get it and then they can decide the price and you would see some very high prices initially i'm sure like anything in terms of the long run do you think that the n.h.s.
1:18 pm
should have a monopoly on the available facts and doses do you think there is a pace for private health care in this kind of fight with the pandemic at all. i think initially the u.k. has done very well to get the vaccine early and so give us the most at risk we're seeing really across the world. now struggling with copd and they are passing away and so we got a good start on it and it should absolutely go to the most vulnerable i think the next will be those with co-morbidity such as heart disease lung disease and i would hope then we'd look at helping developing countries get it as well across the board most vulnerable and so i think it is it should go to the most vulnerable however i do believe when you then bowling it sounds in the more mass fashion probably by this kind of help and can support but i think with the screening there was a little bit of
1:19 pm
a. push against dr vidas and then you found overloaded and then they allowed prague vives again so i hope that when the time comes and there's an excess of vaccine that allows providers to have some without taking away the most vulnerable i would hope they'd let us help out because i think that then reduces the strain on the n.h.s. so that they can do even more doses what we really appreciate you coming on to speak to us we know that you've probably been with your hands on approach and think of it that was dr roshan revenge speaking to us from charity many thanks. on the thing on politicians world wide to call on people to stay home over the new year break to avoid yet another wave of covert infections are pleased to meet you park reports it's that time of year that wishes are meant to come true a part dealer one being that 2021 is going to get covert in the cab the time of year when we all come together and celebrate the best way to celebrate new year is
1:20 pm
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 lock down this is a chance to avoid the food where you would lose do everything we can so that he does know and he does as with these foods 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 quarantine the slip. many of them stayed in quarantine for a day before they left
1:21 pm
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 the exam hands and 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 cancelled or moving online. but despite all the warnings and restrictions health officials don't seem to think
1:22 pm
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 traveling 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. a new strain of fast detected in the u.k. has now been found in sweden and this comes as stockholm considers whether 20 and knocked down and that does mark a significant break from the country's idea how unself approach which the government now admits was a failure. they missed a 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 whole lot we are
1:23 pm
talking about certain types of trading places where the risk of spreading the disease is assessed as high and where there is a lot of crowding sweetens approach to the pandemic differed from most other countries until recently it relied on voluntary social distancing while avoiding for public life or made largely unaffected a move criticized by neighboring countries who even shut the borders at some point the founder of swedish professors and doctors for human rights believes new restrictions are essential. as well in the air west from the beginning the economy business and of course. industry etc going to be enormous spending. they will not be prone to close the schools because in that case they're 25 percent of the legal force will be temporary last forced sort of study aiming to
1:24 pm
protect your economy are not to say the most notable to look down and strict measures is the only way to at least try to do. both morbidity and mortality produced by these failures you will solve 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 to suit economy but to say laos i mean it should be you know it has to be the human. perspective you know it we're here to do to save. many of us can only imagine but treating covert patients can be exhausting as you can see from this image of russian medical students who were helping out round the clock out of hospital misapply to spark the photo has now gone viral one of the students spoke to us about the story behind it.

take zoe saldana who this year a whole enjoys 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 never even you know anne hathaway moved to apologize to people with limb differences because she played the grand high which 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. when you got a problem acting just ain't what it used to be a but when it gets really bad is when you get several actors together for
