approved in algeria and serbia believe you. other countries and more but as a lining up i can say the vaccine is a factor in more than 90 percent based on the trial that ups and also less allergic reaction. abilities kill ability cost all these are the pet meter that are ideal for any vaccine to roll out. one of the scrutiny experienced advantages over the competition aside from price is that it's easier to transport or to store so a simple frege will do them 5 of them and then the vaccines they require deep freeze as low as minus 70 degrees celsius so cold storage which isn't widely available in much of the developing world which is most of the world the sputnik the vaccines high quality and efficacy are stimulating growing interest from more and more countries these translates into wider jorgen feel free to reject ration to leverage and production palestine denied the vaccine by israel has become the 1st

in the middle east to greenlight sputnik the main thrust of the neatness of this would be worse in that it's using a as good as the sin and universe has been used in forth is different in order to reduce. the further the reverse of the cause of the believe us it is. good chance to know that the lesbo different is in the next in india the russian shot has just passed phase 2 trials without a hitch with only phase 3 to go well ready deals have been signed to produce 300000000 doses of sputnik in india the phase 2 study in india showed a very good safety profile we are working closely towards fast tracking the launch of the sputnik the vaccine in india all in all few nations are putting all their

free speech day keepers is concerning european leaders at the moment while they were united in their condemnation of the violence that we saw in washington d.c. last wednesday there has been no objections to the subsequent actions of companies like twitter and facebook to dump donald trump from their platforms german chancellor angela merkel has said that it's not the job of social media companies to decide who gets a voice and who doesn't respect c to the chancellor considers it problematic that the accounts of the us president have now been permanently blocked there's also concern in france over the power social media giants have shown that they have and you know the person silencing them on social networks which have become a form of public space seems to me a complicated matter in the absence of specifically established criteria digital

regulation should not be done by the digital or the go cute self regulation of the digital spheres amounts of sovereign people governments and the judiciary the commissioner for internal market britain has long been a big voice calling for tougher regulations on tech giants he described the capitol hill riot that we saw last wednesday in washington d.c. as the 911 moment for social media according to mr brett all following that violence and the subsequent actions of social media companies to a sitting u.s. president from their platforms nothing can be the same again the food the c.e.o. composed the plug on poets is loudspeaker without any checks and balances is perplexing the oldest emotions in his proof that a powerful and brigley to digital space room innocent of the wild west has a profound impact on the very foundations of our modern democracies social media giants and banning donald trump from their platforms has poured gasoline on to. the

fire of a free speech the bait that's been going on for a while now what we've heard from terry brett on the commissioner in charge of these things is there are 2 pieces of legislation that would tabled by the e.u. commission at the end of december that we'll be looking to address this further europe they'll be putting tight reins on the social media giants as well as what could be posted on their platforms. looks now at the growing disconnect between the values that washington preaches and current developments across the country. america the land of the free people i've met in china and russia in afghanistan and iraq and other places who yearn for freedom and who look to this building and these shores as a place of hope the american people and the greatest democracy the world has ever known this temple to democracy over the policy a few decades the u.s.

has been busy exporting its brand of democracy all over the world but it looks like fine me the walls run dry in its own backyards and what could have been lifted from a dystopian sayf i block mayor episodes twitter facebook instagram snapshot the list goes on don't trump out of his accounts so good that his biggest step yet to limit president trumps or reach put or has permanently suspended president trump's account where there has announced it is cutting off president trump's ability to post on the social media site permanently president of course used twitter extremely frequently and to extreme controversy president trump has been violating rules all over social media for a long time so the american president given amount it by tens of millions of voters to run the country silenced by on the elected technocrats instead of conveyor out with the american constitution in with twit says thompson uses but even that

apparently is too little too late in today's america we need solutions that don't start after untold damage has been done changing these dentures dynamics requires more than just the temperature silencing or permanent removal of bad actors from social media platforms and just like a paranoid dictator is convinced he's surrounded by enemies big taxis bontoc does everyone trump loyalists annoy is leading the election forward claims right wing talk show hosts all sense that the story looked because apparently that clinton got michael very riled up enough to storm the capital now. duct taping trump and a few of his cronies is one thing but what to do about the 75000000 americans who've raylene like red taps now we need to on brainwash and reeducate about 71000000 voters and their children who follow trump supporters need to read you give themselves a lot of things but one of them is the definition of democracy now we have to

figure out how to reeducate all the people trump and fox news have damaged but before this great how about some good old erosion of the fast amendment take the twit to start up scene as a safe space for conservative voices while no more after thought in influx of people angry a twit to censorship story policy pano was dropped by apple google and this is obviously a collusive action on the part of these incredibly powerful entities who are seeking to not just destroy their competition but effectively to silence people who are supporters of the president online for years i heard it invalid to object to political censorship by facebook and twitter because if you don't like it you can just create a competing social media platform parlor tried and in 24 hours google apple and amazon united to destroy it that's what monopoly power means it's not just the

internet that's become a no go zone so these new enemies of the state big time political donors from car in oil companies to big banks have turned off the money tap to lawmakers who backed trump in questioning the election results in fewer trump paid well good luck finding a job or any of terms for suburban forbes will assume that everything your company your phone talks about is a lie i mean what's next informing on people oh wait let's name and shame. to some amazing work by james reynolds and friends here easy. face and i guess his mom's pay attention to the shows and acts and her glasses well done. never star direct marketed in maryland you've got an employee to investigate. know not to tapped out of all whiles 984 just americans the land of the free

in 2021 parlor a social network site popular with trump supporters is now suing amazon for being removed from its web hosting service journalist chadwick more things the tech giants are abusing their monopoly position. we forget that big tech has been silencing and banning people since the 2016 election people who'd be helped. out to get the president elected to any social media site like twitter used to be it's free association so you are free to block people you're free to follow people you have similar interests and if there are sort of groups out there you're free to not interact with them which is what. your twitter used to be like into a day with the power in the user instead of the platform deciding deciding who should be heard and you should not be your platforms facebook twitter and ceramic were going across one another when you have these companies coordinating across platforms and forget the whole censorship argument you can big are going to hear

their crushing competition they are injecting themselves into the market so this is a time that we may have going on here just with conspiracy and racketeering which many people say seems quite obvious what's going on here americans are course deeply worried about this and this is the land that prides itself so much on free speech. the british prime minister has been spotted riding his bike 11 kilometers from downing street and that's despite his government's ban on people exercising outside of their neighborhoods and it comes just days after 2 women were fined several 100 pounds for driving a kilometers to go for a walk as penalties were cancelled after a public outcry however. it looks at how johnson's bad example comes at the worst possible time. the relentless search of 1000 infections up and down the country has prompted a stark warning from the health secretary about how we do sinking further action is needed. but it's your actions know the difference it's like

the dollars it's an unwelcome message for many across britain but professor cresswell is the chief medical officer advisor to the government says tougher restrictions are absolutely unavoidable the next few weeks. i'm going to be. a mom is into the next chance hospitals are being pushed to absolute breaking point last week we had the mayor of london city college declare a major incident which just gives you an idea of the scale that the n.h.s. is facing but also we've had major incidents also being declared in areas like sorry in sussex and those on the frontline say the situation is dire we're creating and the most grave of. our hospitals are in danger of this is. when all this comes as the government and thousands vaccination plan includes the opening of 7 mass vaccination centers across the country but there is a widespread perception that the government keeps over promising and under

delivering it it comes as a poll finds that around 72 percent of people think the government has not acted fast enough with 42 percent absolutely too slow but there are still plenty of people out there who think they're not down shouldn't be in place at all and they clashed with police over that we can't. get a vaccine for what does provide some light at the end of the tunnel but there are many people out there that have no doubt that things are going to get worse before they get better the n.h.s. is struggling in some parts of the country there are no people are being shipped around the country and in some places this issue of use of oxygen there is no doubt

about it the n.h.s. is on the brink and the big message from the secretary of state was to really people to follow the rules do not go out unless it's necessary the n.h.s. i think it's closed. to breaking point i think the government has been too slow right from the beginning that would to slow the law down or regionally we are an island we could have closed up gold as easily but we let people in from china and from northern italy and from spain they pull the inspection with them they were too slow to get people to web malls they were too slow with the regional lot down and they've been to slow down since and of course we've had the relaxation of christmas which was a very foolish thing to do in my opinion so yes i think we've had we have a prime minister who's been hesitant to long down and he's been too slow to act and that's been the story throughout this very sorry. still had the u.s.

officials voiced their frustration over delays in getting vaccines to the population it tells not story and more on the 2nd half of the program. the world is driven by shaped by the curse of those great. dares thinks. we dare to ask.

come back u.s. officials are calling for a quicker rollout of covered vaccines so far 25000000 doses have been delivered to hospitals nationwide but less than a 3rd of those shots have actually been administered. they're ripping up too slowly this past monday i said to them you have until friday to room. use it or lose it it would be much better to move quickly and end up vaccinating some lower priority people than to let vaccines sit around while states try to micromanage this process . as things stand there are strict criteria on who can receive the vaccine and that's led to technical delays with doctors on able to give the job to target groups and some unused doses going to waste some states are trying to address that

problem by widening the list of eligible people and new york it now includes people over 75 and essential workers such as teachers infectious diseases specialist william schaffner spoke to r.t. is a boom bust about the difficulties hospitals are facing. there are all kinds of problems out there it depends on the location my state is actually one of the top 3 or 4 states. thanks amazing people or proportion of vaccines delivered in arms now is pretty good but even within our own state we're seeing that some locations are doing better than other some locations or swamped with the early except there's they just want the vaccine but they haven't got enough other places and this is happening to many people surprise and health care facilities that not all health care workers are ready to get the vaccine they need reassurance the persuasion they

need information so all of that's rolling out if you plan for it your vaccination program is a little slower than we would like so it's a whole spectrum of issues kind of coming together one and the incoming administration under joe biden his axing advisers they've been expressing a caution about being able to hit they're talking about 100000000 vaccine in the 1st 100 days how possible is it for them to help these states ramp up these inoculations. to a 1000000 per day at the current rate i wish that the goal had not been so specifically expressed it's very aspirational one of the things that the administration says it will do is release a lot of doses of vaccine that are currently in warehouses and that will then put the stress on all the people who are delivering the vaccines to get that 1st dose into as many arms as possible as quickly as possible the other concern is

a vaccine dose deferred is often the vaccine doses not received and we really need to bring everybody back for that 2nd dose in order to get that 95 percent effectiveness. a university of milan studies found the origins of the pandemic might be closer to home than previously thought its new report says patients there may have been infected in italy back in november 29000 a whole week earlier than the 1st webster case in china our world health organization and vesa gate of teams due to arrive in china on thursday to probe how the virus started it comes as china reports the biggest daily surge in covered cases and almost half a year. i

amid a long running trade dispute european exporter say it could cost them almost a $1000000000.00 euros this year alone. of course these new terror of suppose a real threat for us moreover previously it's affected only under 14 percent strength winds but now it covers all types of wine it effects the whole french wine industry no doubt we will feel the consequences of this standoff especially amid those countries that don't have such tariffs and this is such a bad time as the state of trade ties with the us is already dire because of the pandemic and we have kind of a large export volume to the us thus even with a mirror tariff increase on american wines we suffer more than they do. tensions between the us and europe ask elated in 2019 a disagreement over airplane subsidies resulted in tit for tat moves and america putting levy is on some european ones with more now being targeted french producers

are calling on their government for help. by we can export by placing them on the edge of an abyss it is the entire wine and spirits sector the 2nd largest contributor to the balance of all a country which is in danger. in this case it would be better if taxes another payments were decreased for example we wind producers provide the french economy with money via those taxes and that is ok but when we face a situation when our industry suffers the government would do better to ease some taxes we don't get any support from the government and to receive it well you know we have nearly 0 rights with the current almost communist french administration. that's been your news breakdown for this hour and that's all for me as the well but we're not making and will be taking over thanks for tuning in referee maybe.

when else seemed wrong all right all were all just all. to me all that is yet to shape out this day to come as a kid and engagement equals a trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart. just to look for common ground. i can show you my face but i'm going to teach you my story in 9093 this man was sentenced to death they could charged with capital murder even though he didn't have the gun didn't pull the trigger didn't intend to kill anybody imagine living in your bathroom for the week which is the end of the 23 years. i doubt that the
