7:02 pm
to brussels and demand more doses we need more vaccines and more tests and everything that distracts from this tosk will prolong the fight against the virus madrid and catalonia have administered almost all of a global doses and all remaining supplies are needed to provide 2nd doses to people who have already received a 1st shot ahead of spain's vaccination association says it is a nationwide problem so. the number of doses we're receiving has been significantly reduced the vaccine is not being delivered to the rate that we anticipated it's a real problem for the national vaccination plan and it means a ton of us regions will have to review their strategies the supplies we do half will be needed to give 2nd doses to those who have already started the vaccination process so we will not be able to knock your other vulnerable and increase groups that were identified in the original plan it's a difficult and uncomfortable situation the czech republic has halted its
7:03 pm
vaccination campaign for 2 weeks over a lack of doses and it is a picture playing out across the e.u. we're just 2 percent of people have been vaccinated far lower than the numbers in the u.k. and u.s. and with vaccine makers pfizer and astra zeneca reporting major production delays there is no solution in sight the spanish vaccine chief again thinks the e.u. should have done a better job of securing early supplies from the pharma giants. i do not like the lack of transparency with regard to the contracts that the european union has concluded with pharmaceutical companies we don't know about them we don't know the purchase price we don't know anything at all and i think that's wrong of course we're concerned that apparently in those countries that purchase vaccines had a higher price then the european union have not experienced such delaying delivery we are not at all satisfied with the current situation. now the british prime

minister is facing renewed scrutiny over his handling of the pandemic after the country passed 8 tragic milestone of 100000 covert related deaths boris johnson has admitted to government missteps but so far resisted calls for a public inquiry there to be no doubt and it has been no doubt that either the government takes full responsibility for all the actions all you've taken we've taken during this pandemic to fight this disease the u.k. is the 1st country in europe to record 100000 covert deaths we also the deepest recession of any major economy ask olds are closed and our borders are open my biggest concern is that the prime minister still hasn't learnt the lessons of last year and i fear that as a result we'll see bull tragedy of more great milestones. in the past week alone more than 8500 people have died from covert 1000 in the u.k.
7:05 pm
and the government is rolling out ever tougher restrictions the lockdown has been extended for at least 3 weeks and people cannot go out without a valid reason our public gatherings are banned and police are getting tougher on those who step out of line but as partridge explained sometimes the rule breakers are the officers themselves. the coronavirus pandemic has changed just about everyone's professional lives and the police are no exception the u.k.'s on armed forces have repeatedly come under the spotlight for trying to do their job which these days include cracking down on illegal gatherings under the lockdown laws these range from graves to birthday parties weddings and even baby showers and baby shower. ok. provided or because you're all here so obviously you're breaking covert rules we can't find every adult here every single one of you 2 under par that is london metropolitan police chief superintendent stephen trainmen
7:06 pm
condemns the party goers and warned there would be consequences london's police are almost daily posting videos of officers shutting down illegal gatherings 000-0000. oh i thought mission really to ok for you. before you begin to have sisters very close start as examiner certain stores are ok because of their national logs are aware of the you know exam to going to the school 2nd with all the people the aim is to publicly shame people and prevent others from doing the same except that message doesn't seem to have reached 31 of their own officers court flouting the law down while on duty just to get a haircut if you're eating their superiors and seeing each of fending offices slapped with a $200.00 pound fine it is deeply disappointing and frustrating that my offices of for. and short of the expectation to uphold covert 1000 regulations i hope this
7:07 pm
action proves that police are not immune to enforcement of the rules more embarrassingly for the net it happened barely a week after 9 officers were fined after being spotted having breakfast together in a london café since march the police have issued $32000.00 fines across england and wales penalties rochelle petering indians november looking down almost $6500.00 penalties were handed out as police move more quickly to enforcement find start at 200 pounds in england and northern ireland but the government intends to increase these to 800 pounds for illegal gatherings of more than 15 people but with crackdowns getting tougher police federation's are calling on the government to ensure that officers are at the forefront of the facts the nation roll out the public expects police officers to put themselves in harm's way and i believe that it is only fair to expect that these same frontline officers get prioritised for vaccination over the last 2 weeks alone 5 london police officers have died from
7:08 pm
corona virus the pandemic has left millions frustrated anxious and impatient months of isolation mean people want to see family and friends and to let their hair down and the police are being left with a very public task of not only ensuring everyone else is safety but setting the personal example of how it should be done what i think the police the world are a very difficult situation with so with the codes restrictions because it's it goes against the grain completely for police to interrupt parties and things but of course those are all the laws and the legislation and police officers realise that no hate to do that and i think that's what's happening it's it's a really weird time this goes against all the all the training all the things that we we over many over the century or so have tried to do which is give people their freedoms but people act within the law but of course. these letters to this legislation has put them in a very difficult position meaning that they've got to interrupt such things as baby
7:09 pm
showers and wading and other things which goes really against the all the things that they've done over the years i firmly believe that police officers should be vaccinated because they are being asked to not only be around lots of individuals themselves so that they're at their own colleagues they have to be in vans with their colleagues they have to be in the police station but they're also risking people in the street and in people's houses so they are the forefront of our needs to have a decent society that they they have the vaccination as early as possible france was once the world leader in vaccine development and now the failure to develop its own coverage shot has become a source of shame for the political establishment and he struggled to penske report . france has a learning famous history when it comes to vaccinations i mean after all the so-called father of even your logy is louis pastor the french microbiologist so
7:10 pm
it's been a base of a blow that the institution that bears his name failed to find a viable vaccine it's described its own results as disappointing in these trials involving the 1st administration to humans the vaccine candidate was well tolerated but the immune responses in juiced by the vaccine were inferior to both those observed in individuals who recovered from natural infection and those observed with the vaccines currently authorized for covert 19 the vaccine they were attempting to produce was less effective than no natural immunity who hits hard and it seems the french are really feeling it the fear yes indeed it is real because when pastor rick cannot get out a dose of the vaccine that is amazing so i think it is incompetence it's everywhere or maybe there are too it's a competition between different laboratories well they didn't find the right immediate solution yes it's a shame but hey that's life that's a key x. and they will do better communication i'm not sure after all it's more important
7:11 pm
that everyone in the world has the same objective it's true there are concerns about making money on the vaccines and things like that politicians too are crying out with worry that france is losing its standing in the world it's a sign of the decline of the country and this decline is an acceptable but this decline is not because france isn't producing will cost scientists know it's because of the brain drain so it's not acceptable that our best research or the most brilliant of our researchers are sucked up by the american system i was blaming reductions in public funding for vaccine research so there is that people in paris think to towards the middle of the crisis they finally woke up. they put some resources aside but there is still more that can be done by changing the economy a little especially at ministerial level they could save a little there are probably things that can be done to simplify our system so that
7:12 pm
there is more funding probably we could remove some administrative flayers that have accumulated over the years given the money where you will to spend in other areas armament and all that i would be surprised if it was a fund and problem i think its management issue may be more than a funding issue meanwhile what's been called france is the last major pharma group sanofi is struggling to bring to the market its vaccine can did it which won't be available before the end of the year for now sanofi is helping libels pfizer bio tech manufacturing more of their job so let's even ski r.t. paris lebanon has been gripped by a 4th night of anti lockdown unrest hundreds were injured as rioters torched and vandalized property in tripoli. military police fired tear gas and water cannons in response as protesters threw
7:13 pm

7:14 pm
a live rounds his funeral was held today right now the situation is stable and if there are some small clashes from time to time it seems like the army is waiting for serious clashes to get involved as some time ago it used armed force to block the roads to tripoli. the head of the lebanese red cross told us just how life is really right now and how tough it is. many d.d.'s knew of the doing and due to that they have to go to court. and the people are fighting crime you've got going to need to be. the head of them to see how they can manage them and then they lie and do today no hospital. and. you look and i get to spend. 19 and now i have we had a painting a lot of problems and the key thing to name is you don't win that back they look.

potential communications going on between terrorists in and out of the united states i mean listen we don't have enough people working at the federal government level to keep an eye on everybody so we have to focus and consolidate our efforts to where there is true danger. the white house is preparing to tighten its rules on who can attend at media events and the biden ministration has set out its criteria on who could be barred in. organizations or individuals who trafficking conspiracy theories propaganda and lies to spread disinformation will not be tolerated and we will work with the white house correspondents' association to decide how to handle those instances moving forward. this at a time when liberal media are being accused of singling out republicans for character assassinations one example is a newsweek feature on sen tom cotton and a long running claim that he falsified his military career it revolves around
7:20 pm
cottons claim to have served as an army ranger based on a 2 month training course he once did at a ranger school and the magazine says the title ranger is associated with an elite unit in the army while the senator says the liberal media have always referred to ranger school graduates as army rangers to illustrate that point back in 2015 newsweek itself identified 2 female ranger school graduates as army rangers but recently the outlet edited that 5 year old piece to say the women will be allowed to wear the coveted ranger tab on their uniforms meanwhile conservative commentators are bracing for a new climate of hostility under the by the administration and one fox news anchor had a stern warning for where the country is heading you see those efforts all around you know never in american history has there been press censorship on this scale earlier we spoke with legal and media analyst lionel he thinks the new u.s.

7:23 pm
