crazy confrontation let it be an arms race in this on off and spearing dramatic development only mostly i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. headlines is sick so you know it is his advisor after receiving a vaccine doses and they expected the company says it's down to manufacturing upgrades designed to boost production also this hour a high profile u.s. democratic party will make the calls to rein in the media over dissin from asian investigative journalist glenn greenwald talks to us about the possible consequences of free speech. there on the leading. billionaires and oh it works in my novel sort of valley just uncertain in the way

that they believe is. the shift in vaccine advice in norway is 13 die after receiving the pfizer jab but the country's drugs agency doesn't system is no reason to be alarmed. that i get even just on 5 here in moscow you're watching r.t. international there are several countries a furious at pfizer at the moment the drugs giant has shipped over far fewer doses of its vaccine that they had intice a pated receiving 6 countries called the delays unexpected and at very short notice pfizer says manufacturing upgrades to boost production are to blame his art. europe is in panic the covert crisis is far from under control growing numbers of cases keep breaking daily records. are overwhelmed and an end to lock downs is

nowhere in sight and now to make matters worse pfizer has announced it has to temporarily decrease shipments of its covert vaccine and the patient facilities and processes and the factual requires new quality tests and approvals from the authorities as a consequence a few doses will be available for a peon countries and the end of january and the beginning of february this temporary reduction will affect all european countries pfizer added that the delays are necessary to make improvements to its production line meant to boost the amount of vaccines that can roll out but for many european states that are struggling with the surgeon code cases the announcement came as an unexpected blow and health ministers are furious this situation is unacceptable not only does it impact the planned vaccination schedules it also decreases the credibility of the vaccination process the delay has only added to the many issues that european countries are currently faced with now people who have already taken the 1st job might not get

the 2nd one on time the pharmaceutical giant promised to make up for the delayed shipments in coming months and it seems to me you brass are happy to take their word for pfizer and now this delays i immediately called the c.e.o. of pfizer he reassured me that all guaranteed doses of the 1st quarter will be delivered in the 1st quarter the european commission has been working tirelessly to secure enough doses of the most promising vaccines we have access to enough doses of vaccine to vaccinate over 80 percent of the european population but these reassurances have done little to quell outrage from member states who have been fuming over the sluggish pace at which the vaccines. have been distributed especially when compared to other countries the situation is exacerbated by the fact that states cannot get hold of the vaccines directly they rely on the commission to purchase and distribute the jabs among

member states but with a shortage of supplies and difficult storage requirements of minus 70 degrees celsius the approach has not proven effective and countries are struggling to meet inoculation targets experts fear all these shortages and delays could lead to people losing interest in getting vaccinated at all jeopardizing immunization goals it might have. put in new york because you're going to fall in the 1st blaze people my degrees even more in their interest to get what you need to people we would get there it would get to be more of. our of our god whether this is a convenient thing for a living if you didn't speak in this cyclone which is. really really really is that the lazy production and the leaders or disprove like to do different countries they would sit surely they're the dijon all of

those plans that the different 30 different countries already how if they would understand this you know if all the governments but the fallacy or the producer of the or c. s. which have now said short of it there that it is then. it's not going to be affected that much. meanwhile health officials in norway are adjusting their vaccination advice after the deaths of 13 elderly people who were seen today yourself the pfizer vaccine or those who died were care home residents aged over 80 . it seems that some of these patients get such severe side effects in the form of fever and malays that it can make a very serious illness even more serious which may lead to death or norway launched its covert immunization program with the pfizer vaccine in late december and on

friday it rolled out the maternal vaccine to nursing home residents are on the priority list and since then 29 people have been reported to have suffered side effects after getting the pfizer job but the national medicines regulator does insists it is not alarmed by these numbers adding that the risks are low except among the most frail of patients and people with underlying health issues experts we spoke to you agree to that the benefits of vaccination do outweigh the risks but that caution is needed for the most fun. if they offer to norway believe that there may be a problem that it's right to be cautious that vaccine should only ever really be given to people who would fit well in any case if somebody who's seriously are well or frail they really got to me to think about giving them a back seat i think would go far as a back seat is one of in terms of its effectiveness initially at least

seems to be one of the best roxy on the market but how long will it last for remains to be seeing but it is a good vaccine there is nothing wrong with it i don't think it's nothing to worry about i think i think that the scientists and the medical community in norway as well as the world community should look at those deaths and see if there's something that they had in common there is a concern but i think at this point there and so many people have gotten this vaccine and not had any major problems i still haven't seen any. legitimate evidence that this vaccination and the risk of the vaccination outweighs the benefits at this point in. the u.s. congresswoman how xandra a casio cortez's joins a growing group of democratic politicians demanding a plan time on the media in the wake of last week's riots the capitol building in

washington d.c. republicans fear that any time down well actually focus on them and the reports. the congresswoman who is known by her initials is seen as a rising star in the democratic party a o c is all about diversity social justice and protecting civil liberties she communicates with her adoring public primarily through social media with thousands sharing her tweets and live streams why do we need to change people's well being and ability to survive for yet another corporate bailout we need to get the relief of going out our elected officials offices. and demanding believe no holding back there but it seems that now alexandria cortez's a ok with media censorship we're going to have to figure out. how we rate in our media environment so that you can't just disinformation and

misinformation so bright all of the news media and teach people how to properly consume news now you can see where this is heading for a o.c.s. critics let's unpack this proposal she wants to basically establish a ministry of truth we've all read 1904 and you know to determine what is truth and what is not so who sits on this committee exactly i'm curious that she's talking about is fine for a member of congress to blast the media president trump has been known to do that now and again but i don't want some federal commission deciding what is false but what a.o. c. wants the government to do is already being done by social media's gatekeepers donald trump and his closest supporters have been taken off of social media one by one facebook has even banned any reference to stop the steal the catch phrase donald trump supporters used when they said they felt the election was rigged against them and they're finding online hangouts to be much harder to come by at

this point we've seen twitter's rival parlor drop from the app stores before being shut down by amazon completely twitter c.e.o. jack dorsey was caught on tape suggesting this is just the beginning we know we are focused on one that. is going to be much bigger just want to. focus solely on the. well it does but also. a much longer term around just an image over time. that don't believe this is going away and politicians have long been accused of being slow on the digital opting but they seem to be learning 1st hand who really has the power over what we hear see and read in these increasingly polarized times mean that open conversation is needed more than ever but the billionaires who hold the keys now have all the cards hey look my. r.t. new york well in today's edition of the. chris hedges talks the investigative

journalist glenn greenwald and i did discuss the growing censure powers of unelected tech executives you can catch the full show later nati america and also online. i partied clearly the wrong way question are very much on board yet that and i have free speech. whatever they want to call it waste. terror is right when extremism because it's simply too dangerous and not only should the free speech be restricted i lost the congress which presumably would have to be amended 1st man and politico and they're on their knees pleading with. billionaires and oligarchs and monopolist and so time ballet to censor in the way that they believe is politically advantageous if you want to go on twitter and post a link to the new york post reporting on. a lot of information about what joe biden

was doing in ukraine what he was doing i don't he was the presidential frontrunner you couldn't even post a link to a band if he spoke our it lee announced through a longtime democratic party operative now works as a spy are they ever going to suppress the spread of that story that was stunning intervention on the heart of silicon valley let's talk about removing donald trump from social media platforms i think even the shopping was of the shopping network i mean and why that's dangerous a dangerous precedent i've been really interesting. that numerous world leader including one famously after known to use relationship with president trump stood up and very ounce twitter's decision. to ban president trump from the popular myth includes chance for merkel who is

a center right politician with you know trump has argued and bickered almost entire presidency why because they're extremely concerned that these private ackman awfully they cannot battle you has been trying to break up you go and break up they split for years and he simply can't search you are all are also coming from their democracies and they know that it facebook and twitter co-op president trump from accessing the internet they know it could be done to them as well and to their countries as well if they simply destroy it in a competing platform at the urging of people a congressman roe conn congresswoman alexander cacio cortez the issue demands heard on twitter and within 70. 2 hours are all respond from here now so it doesn't understand why this is so dangerous that. i really don't want is on the internet to be heard is concentrated and great number of so i could barely see.

the outside of the realm and although you are no transparency and we know. now for something a bit different because they are cheap healthy nutritious and the z. on the environment too but would that be enough to convince you to add worms to your daily diet well the european food safety authority has done research which claims that beetle larvae is safe for humans to eat and it's now up to remembers to decide whether it should be made available this 1st european food safety agency risk assessment of an ensuite does normal food going to be the way for the 1st e.u. word approval oh risk of dilution is a disservice if the nursery step in the regulation of normal foods by supports and policymakers in the e.u. in making sounds because decisions and ensuring the safety of consumers well if it helps to whet your appetite the un's food and agriculture agency says that insects

are a good source of protein and fiber and the big benefit for the planet is that their production does not produce a lot of greenhouse gases and there's also a much lower risk too of the spread of animal to human diseases so so far so good but researches do say studies are stilling conclusive more work is needed they say on allergies and claim that the worms do contain katyn which is perfectly safe for most people but it can cause a severe reaction in some and is also found in shellfish either way you still have to decide whether you'd like to try them. there are cognitive reasons derived from our social and cultural experiences the so-called yuck factor that makes the thought of eating insects repellents to many year of beans with time and exposure is such entities can change lower costs and prices could enhance food security and new demand will open economic opportunities to but these could also affect existing

sectors well here and talk to campaigners on sustainable farming poverty and also animal rights to see if they have any been about eating eggs. we've got a rising population globally we have real real concerns about food security i think the issue is about having a 3rd that's sustainable 'd that is a thought of all has relatively negative impacts so i think the insect option is one as very much of navigating insects is just serve perpetrates yes these are to me it is necessary in the end because of insects our needs so if i'm with the matter of knowing the gender in which we have to divide our meat consumption minus several times like we have to needs in terms less meat because it is sufficiently cars are very carbon intensive the majority of current footprint of animal or culture comes from remove them so they chose cheap i think that

a lot of environment let's think the cow is worth but the environment recent research on oxford university has suggested that the calculations that agriculture organization the u.n. organization has made about the contribution that ruminant animals that's cows and sheep make towards climate change is being exaggerated so actually if we factor in the way it which cows grazing pasture could contribute towards locking up carbon in the saw that cancels out then we 'd say the bish's i'm committee were made aware because i used to use them for fishing bait and to treat my pets where as a boy and it's it's good that the european regulators say sake but i don't personally fancy it i'm stuck with a little bit at the yuck factor intuitively i don't think they're going to part called a major part of the future diet of 21st century humanity i think we really just didn't review this illusion that people have problems with insects in the market is

approaching many people that by approaching sharif's here at the moment get a protein drink which says it contains protein. quite often that protein is produced from insects more and more people are beginning to see it going to in shit in trying to pulse along to now you can ball i chocolate flavored and change a flavored salty carol locusts and all sorts of things i don't think it's a matter of if why all is just a matter of it's coming down the i mean it's already here and if they won't if they give it a trendy name it will be come something but more people except in the go-go's that's a little less parks still to come this hour the prison health minister admits health care has collapsed in the amazon region overwhelmed by and a lack of equipment cultism dorsai will have the details just awful.

you know this is a theme that is ours fascinated how markets can attract investors who are investing in destruction of their own country or their own communities it's like similar to the business model of the mafia you know when they burn down a restaurant and they collect on the insurance extender. aesop's fables caution us to be careful what we wish for because it might just come true after 4 years of donald trump the democrats are triumphantly retaking power in the united states is that a cause for celebration or concern. join

me every 1st week on the alex i'm i'm sure and i'll be speaking to us from the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see you. again join us corporations have pooled financial support from politicians who have spoken out in favor of donald trump to spot the firms themselves having previously pumped huge sums into the president's party. looks at corporate america's efforts to fit in with the incoming democratic administration. donald trump free fall from the american president to enemy number one is always complete but it turns out guilty by association too if you voted for trump you voted for the person who

claimed supported you voted for the person who nazis support you voted for the person who the all right supports vets the crowd that you were in apart from being heckled is that nazi how can a trump sign a new yard might cost you your twitter account but for lawmakers on the hill loyalty to the president has come at a much higher price over we're not yet making contributions at this point in the election cycle nike's political action committee will not support any member of congress who ignores these principles of democracy including those who voted to decide if ideal actual college results for some it was news that mike even donated to the red tape and they did 150000 dollars in 2020 while the democrats got handed over a 1000000 so besides being a monster crossan jumping on the gun nike's move was also

a monster class in forgetting that when your going to take the moral high ground you better make sure you will clean as some whistle yourself nike uses slave labor politicians should be refusing their donations like anyone cares nike got rich off the backs and sweat of child labor and pittance wages in asia all good americans should refuse to support them or accept any donations from them and you also better make sure you're consistent i'm sure that the osa got so donations to the democrats that objected to the electoral college vote in 2016 asking for a friend after the 200-200-4016 elections democrats cried foul and contested the outcomes as is that constitutional right. don't remember nike pulling its millions than that's because it didn't and neither did any of the dozens of other companies that have now decided that constitutions are wrong and

republicans need to be taught a lesson disney wal-mart and be amazon and general electric morgan stanley the list goes on some have even gone a step further and ask for a refund take josh hawley to fossella to commit to objecting he's been asked by greeting cards jayakumar to pay back past donations season's greetings seditionist we want our money back who has also been called on to resign and had a contract for an upcoming book canceled counseling being something holy is generally not a fan of this could not be more william let me be clear this is not just a contract dispute it's a direct assault on the 1st amendment only approved speech can now be published this is the left looking to cancel everyone they don't approve of we'll never know of course but i'm guessing that if trump was still on twitter around about now with the wads which would probably be making 8 caps lock parents it's.

unparalleled to see the democrat party acting like such sore winners instead of celebrating and instead of moving forward with their agenda they've instead become even more slight full and nastier than they were during the 4 years of trim if this is what it's going to be like everyone should be terrified their mission now is the engines and blood and i think people are rightly scared you know these people have absolutely the entire media and big tech industrial complex in their pockets and all i can demeo they're all a big business and they've won the election all bets are off. and i presume the struggling to cope with the pandemic at the moment in the problem is particularly bad in the amazon region where there is a shortage of oxygen for patients and only a fraction of the medics needed to help the country's health minister to admits that health care in the area has collapsed.

maybe you believe we have lived through a moment of horror and panic the pandemic came back to me now so with thought it was on the control lots of people are losing their left once this phase is tragic in our capital. there were only 4 doctors here yesterday and over 70 patients in this room and there were 12 patients intubated where my mother was being treated.

we really have to work hard to keep up with the flow it's not easy but we're trying to take care of people. so even if we think the facts and will work it will take a while so we know these numbers will increase for a while unfortunately like this malinda responding to inoculate 300000000 people as it starts phase one of the world's biggest vaccination program to begin with the senses like this one in new delhi will only handle 100 people a day health care workers are among the 1st in line astra zeneca and india's vaccine of the 2 shots that have received in the ocean so you prevent countries suffering heavily from the virus mind. more than 10000000 reported since.
