i think it's like. you. and the stories that shape their week frustration countries not. 'd being europe north america some people in the us or. neighboring states just to get . an increasing number of other countries choose to use it. gave us his take.

is. a legendary figure in the world of broadcasting whose careers more than 6 decades. riots are seen this week in several u.s. cities just our new president. the deep divisions between democrats republicans. we must end this civil war. stories from the past 7 days and right up to the moment of elements this is the

week. countries around the world are trying to work out how to get their populations and given the limited supply of covert vaccines out there the u.k. government for example is allowing busy up to 12 weeks between people 1st and 2nd phase or job or for doctors are advising against that they don't know studies have been done to show that their drug is still effective after such a long. no other nation in the world has adopted that 12 week delay like the u.k. i mean all those other countries are also suffering similar pressures of lack of vaccine of increasing numbers of cases hospitalization but they have their scientists have adopted a position to try and keep their manufacturers. guidance but also the w.h.s. own proposal of a maximum of $40.00 to $2.00 days' interval italy meanwhile is considering filing a lawsuit against pfizer after

a delay in vaccine shipments are the time when mortality rates are again searching in the city of polar mold hundreds of coffins of covert victims are waiting to be buried other graveyard meanwhile across europe and north america there are severe shortages of the job our senior correspondent picks up the story what was supposed to be an orderly vaccination across the western world is turning into a debacle supplier of the desperately needed vaccines is suing to a drip in europe and canada and states are collaborating to get their hands on the few deuces available. the health care of italian citizens is not a negotiable issue the vaccination campaign can not be slowed down especially for given the 2nd doses to the many talents who are already received the 1st phase or has decided that now is the best time to upgrade their european production plant which means for italy for example around 30 percent fewer deuces will be delivered

in the foreseeable future tally and agri ready planning to sue pfizer these are people's lives we're talking about after all and it seems the corporate bosses they never even asked anyone and last friday we were all surprised by the announcement of pfizer down biotech to have a delay a mediately called the c.e.o. of pfizer and i explained to him that it is of utmost importance that we get the doses that are fixed in the contract pfizer's european production plan supplies europe and canada much of the world the plant in the united states for now is focused on satisfying america needs and this is left canada literally begging its southern neighbor for a handout. or mine american friends help us so we need help once again you have

a new president no more excuses we need your support. unfortunately for canada things aren't rusian the southern side of the border either the highest number of infections in the world the deaths and in this race against our own losing we will have literally nothing left to give as of friday what does that mean it means if we don't get more vaccine quickly our new supplier vaccine we will have to cancel appointments this is crazy this is not the way it should be we have the ability to vaccinate a huge number of people we need the vaccine to go with it the way it's handled in the states is that the federal government every week ships out that scene quotas to various states trumpet boasted that they have millions in reserve but that may have been untrue according to various governors who say there's nothing left vaccine

quotas the states are fooling the dwindling number of duces a being delivered. the bottom line is that we don't have enough banks since it's a jewel problem we need more and we need to get them out more quickly it's soo bad that people have engaged in what's being called vaccine tourism so americans all over the country indeed even canadians a driving to states where vaccines are available to get the shot florida for example we know right now based on. our reservation to me and it's very clear i think. i we had a real problem last week with trying to get last week. that traffic was more on the way we could get the get most cyclists way but they did it just 1st come 1st serve it's been a fiasco from the get go from day one of the pandemic remember when it all started

our allies jumped to very each other to buy up all the mosques and ventilators and even neighbors with nothing and they boosted about buying up billions of duces of vaccines which hadn't even been produced again and leave in poor a states with nothing and now that they hear there's not enough for everyone well that's russia's sputnik is getting more traction abroad hungary has become the 1st e.u. member state to strike a supply deal for the russian mixing the hungry and foreign minister said the country will receive the 2000000 doses. there's a lot on your public diggy due to the slow delivery of the vaccine we were forced to find a new source in order to get foster livery of reliable vaccine so it is a great aunt and a great pleasure to inform me that we have concluded a treaty today under which russia will deliver a vaccine to hungary in 3 stages and. it comes a month out or neighboring serbia started taking deliveries of sputnik the 1st

doses were administered in early january and belgrade is in talks to start domestic production in an interview with r t were none serbian film director and mere christer recess said he's ready to take the russian job. i'm very happy to be. exposed to the possibility to get. a russian rock scene because it's may as i was told by some of the prominent serbian doctors is one of those that we used to receive the same style and the same rules that i was doing to years old the idea of getting boxy and who was always counting on some percentage that people are not going to react positively but a majority of the of the people who grow up salute received by so a national accent is a continuation of the history when i say everyone through russian oxygen it's an ideological i didn't through creation everything is becoming about politics today

whatever you do it's the same is with books so let's hope russian job will be in the future since it's a continuation of production a russian side is going to be a much more spread that you believed before it starts. and a mass vaccination campaign kicked off in russia this week with every citizen given the opportunity to get the sputnik job for free authorities have said goal to get 60 percent of the population inoculated by the end of the year tens of millions of people they can't even get that shot at shopping centers those constantino rushkoff reports the vaccination out here and as you can see there are people lining up to get inoculated i think there are 5050 dozens of people who are waiting in the line right now and i'm going to go inside and i'm going to give you what

they were but before it let me just quickly know this is probably the nicest place in moscow right now to get inoculated you know after all the russians iconic and most famous department store with 4040 characters and decoration. that's the. reception desk that's where you show your i.d. and this is actually all you need to get my candidate here and that goes for every russian citizen. pretty follow. the. money can see how you're feeling the i'm fine i just have an aegis throat perhaps you just need to drink some water yeah i already have i feel better now. or have you already thought about how your life will change once you develop antibodies. i hope it will change because i work in a museum we have lots of researchers so i hope my life will get better. i thought

it would hurt more after the injection because this vaccine is supposed to be more serious than a flu jab but i feel no difference it's just like every of the short this year i decided to get the job but while ago i was just waiting for the opportunity honestly i should have been inoculated in a local clinic but i just wanted to speed up the process because i want to be immune as quickly as possible. my husband and my friends took the job i have no reservations so i want to get it as soon as possible i think the more people that get vaccinated the greater impact through the nation will have in the end. the vaccination is free of charge and that goes for every russian citizen who have decided to take a job all you need is to show your id and name your field of war according to russia's top health care officials the main goal right now is to achieve herd immunity before the next fall just as certainly it would love to have everyone get

the shot and thus have no problem so far we have not been able to me nice people on such a scale from any type of infection but the fact that we will be able to get 60 percent of the overall population inoculated in just the 1st year is a big achievement so in addition to over $800.00 hospitals in moscow where you can get a job in a more traditional setting there are now that summation i would pose it at really popular and trendy places mostly inside shopping malls but also in an exhibition center and even in the theater and according to those in charge of rolling out the jobs there are over a 1000000 people here who has been ready to vaccinated. health care workers that essential workers were the 1st who got vaccinated making the rush to russia's health care ministry the country is planning to round off the vaccine distribution in all the regions by another 2000000 doses of spontaneity and they want to do this

kremlin critic puts the figure at 50000 protesters close violently with police in the capital over 600 people were arrested. joe biden was sworn in the as the 46 president of the united states bringing to a close donald trump's 4 years in office but it made deep divisions in american society people took their discontent to the streets just hours after the inauguration. in portland far left members faced off with riot police officers fired tear gas into the pride a mob smushed windows earlier at the democratic party's offices in the city spray painted on or kissed symbols on the walls seattle also solve islands with protesters creating barricades and starting fires in the streets let's take you to

grief and regret out of the privacy of our hearts if just for a moment so that we all could share it he doesn't keep a lot of things secret when it comes to his emotions and his and his family and his love for his family i've instructed my family in the event i were to somehow ingest some poison and you rushed me to an emergency room and you had to induce emesis vomiting for those at home if you don't have any syrup if it can't please play today's media coverage because. i think i would upchuck it was the worst saccharin this is anadan nonsense the best of the best was a fellow by the name of chris wallace who was on fox news facts news much which used to be considered conservative whatever that means and he said that he's been covering inaugurations since 1961 says j.f.k.

ask not what your country can do for you ask what you can do for your country when we had stentorian oratory the only thing we have to fear is fear itself and chris wallace said with a straight face this was the best inaugural address he's ever heard. i'm in a parallel universe imagine every cliche everything you've ever heard thrown into a hat and just pulled out and read and this this finding this almost. cult like it is incantations up the stage at the u. unity and what did he do within the 1st he went straight to the white house walked in and basically reversed a number of serious executive orders the president trumpets initially so in the

day when he were to say we're all coming together we're all coming the other the 1st he does is give me that pen around and there you go there's your unity. protesters have been on in force in the netherlands against a nighttime curfew that came into effect on saturday. spites trade and any new coronavirus infections in the country parliament approved the curfew for a few years the more stream the tech today in the u.k. calls in the bush but demonstrators pelted riot police with rocks at least 25 people were arrested. 247 news live from moscow this is r.t. i will be buck the top again with the weekly roundup of the stories that shape the post 7 days but sit tight for more great programs on your screen.

the welcome to world of art the departure of donald trump from the white house twitter and many other social media platforms has left many americans ecstatic but astonished many more of just how much power of the big tech companies have accumulated over our lives love or hate trump it isn't his jack order executed at such a politically opportune moment a warning shot for all of us not only in america but everywhere in the world well to discuss that i'm now joined by ramesh 3 of us and a professor of information studies at the university of california los angeles press is good to talk to you thank you very much for your time it's nice to meet you thank you for having me i know that you fully support removing trunk from social media platforms and yet you also find twitter is and the other big tech companies decision to suspend his accounts somewhat problematic why is that you know we don't quite see that they support sort of

a. trump per se i think long before we reach this point there should have been enough there should have been a set of guidelines and rules everybody technology platform followed around specific kinds of q. says by which people might be maybe not deep laughter. and take into steps that are on the way to there and that is not what happens and i think those cases and just to kind of lay it out should be for folks for individuals who have huge viral it meaning what they say what they share can go very viral it's one of those kinds of individuals if they are stating information that is going viral that is obviously false and or heedful it is by these algorithms their influence.
