for. feeling to secure a french ahead of the u.k. as his country struggles to get supplies. it is a shame for us we have missed a good chance in france. that the priority given to the united kingdom. because it has been liberated from the european union while the government and. everything. desperate times call for desperate measures. to draw attention to. the now i did as

a provocation can hardly be enforced i mean that getting sick or not it is not down to one's wish and it can certainly take steps to avoid. government people struggled. to jump the queue. just after midday and 6 pm in near east 69 at night here in moscow welcome to r.t. international my name's you know neil. france's leader self in the firing line after a feeling to secure supplies of a vaccine from his own country before the u.k. britain took advantage. to shell out for the job. they believed straight away in

our inactivated vaccine they took all the risks and immediately forwarded 96000000 euros to use before the end of december well it is the latest in a series of controversies over vaccine supplies involving the e.u. with more from paris here charlotte. france was already feeling a little dejected after attempts by pharmaceutical company sanofi and the pastor institute failed to find a viable vaccine for cold feet 19 now officials must be weeping with anger. that french well never has developed a vaccine but will sell the 1st doses to the u.k. of a manufacturing factory. consider a very quickly by united kingdom was very important so. we will deliver those to. the u.k. 1st the e.u.

is already in a state of panic over what many deemed to be a catastrophic rollout of its vaccine program now member states such as france had signed up to this doing it all together which today to see and it's a really lugging behind its former partner the u.k. now the round has seen the e.u. and the u.k. at loggerheads now that was initially of the astra zeneca vaccine but now is some of questioning whether they would have been better going it alone the european union is not the vaccine it is the virus the european union has terribly managed to cope with 19 try says it has shown it is not only useless but it is toxic for the european countries the distil looks in the french government says it had negotiated we've only but the company received a favorable offer from the u.k. that though not going down well it seems that for once politicians from across the

spectrum in france are in agreement they all fear yes the government failed to back the facts developer. what happened in the united kingdom the rolled out the red carpet for never they helped with finance and implementation. they did everything to make it happen and we were not able to do that is such a waste that this regional golden nugget is live in our french borders we are above all paying for the bend in many of our sovereignty in favor of other emerging powers in globalization since the start of this crisis we have been told about health sovereignty reindustrialization relocation and that is not what we are doing so how is this is the latest blow going down here in france so it is a lot less. hostile he said because france is the contrary of foster care and yet we see a lack of finance electoral funding elect of know how well the government and here are feeling that everything is. i find it

a bit abusive excuse me for that term it's a little bit weird that the priority is given to the united kingdom while the vaccine is manufactured in france its books about which i hope that the goal is to make a good vaccine but it is a loss it is a shame for us we have missed the mark we have missed a good chance in france. on the dollar england is better managed because it has been liberated from the european union and these enormous constraints that constitute the european union the french government says it aims to offer the couvade job to all that won't it by the end of august and it's trying to speed up the rollout whether that though is possible is another question given that france is reliant for the moment on the e.u. for it deuces charlotte even ski r.t. paris britain's astra zeneca started deliveries of its covert 19 job but it's not

for everybody norway and denmark have become the latest countries not to recommend it for people over 65. we have reviewed the documentation and until we have seen more data on efficacy mon the elderly it is our recommendation that the vaccine for astra zeneca should 1st and foremost the efforts of people under 65 years of age without increased risk of serious illness from covered 19 yeah copenhagen's not alone either france germany italy sweden spain also earlier advised against vaccinating the elderly with the astra zeneca job they say there's not enough evidence to suggest it's safe for the elderly a researcher we spoke to says that the company did test the vaccine on older people but on too few to get concrete data i mean the concern comes from the fact that when the clinical trial was done there weren't very many people in the trial who were aged 30 to 65 there were some but not enough so really to get meaningful and

rate prostate so those regulators in those countries feel that more studies need to be done there's no serious illness there's no evidence that people over that age are more susceptible to serious site side effects only indeed we know that they don't generate any good the response all that's missing is the evidence that they are protected meanwhile the e.u.'s top diplomat to use a burrell speaking during his visit here to moscow in the week expressed hope that the russian sputnik the vaccine will be certified in europe in the near future and now i am hoping that you do a b. and medical agency will be able to certify the efficiency of these vaccine you know that could be your social dupion union state it would be good news because as you know we are facing a shortage of vixen. it was

a burrell well a recent study published in the non lunsford medical journal found that sputnik v. was more than 90 percent effective including in people aged 60 and over in terms of european sales the czech republic is now considering following hungary and buying the russian backed in this will. make on 3rd the lowly unfortunately i have to say that we just do not have enough big scene of us and that's why it's so important that when it comes to the point of origin or fix a nation it shouldn't be political issue since i'm not a political question but one of safety. we heard from another microbiologist who believes sputnik v. has this think advantages in the way it was developed. to meet and many of the russians the vaccine is that combines types of sleaze and light was fighting when he said it's absolutely critical that final 26 have been selected before in the course of development of vaccines against h.a.e. as 2 types of reached in europe this actually quite low in the human population and

it's excellent that you are today and there was using sort of crying and the vaccine that's not so great approach let's fly from 2nd point of view he really has the quality get might make it quite sick if that may be the way forward but again it is absolutely critical that the city on the population on which it will be like yeah many. parts and search the environment the general sports needs of the population and the overall if you will michael bio and environmental or or community action in fiction it's going to enhance or suppress the device and so it's always very important to vested in the convict's immaturely adventurer i mean sure blith. you know an interesting way to get noticed in telling us resorted to desperate measures to combat the virus the mirror issued a decree for building anyone from getting sick to draw attention to the fact that

does not have a doctor. i have issued this ruling which is technically called an order i did it as a provocation with no doctor in our town it is impossible for us to get treatment so i had to tell my citizens that the un the way possible to keep going without a medic was to stay healthy that's why i forbade them from falling ill my ruling can hardly be enforced i mean that getting sick or not it is not down to ones who wish and individual can certainly take steps to avoid falling ill for example by wearing a mask searing clear of gatherings and washing hands. yeah as you may remember if lee was the epicenter of the corona virus outbreak in europe last week a grim milestone was reached 90000 deaths related to co but however the country relax krone virus restrictions on monday in most regions with people having greater freedom to travel they can also visit bars restaurants on museums like the

rest of the e.u. it clearly has seen vaccine shortages to the country has now filed a petition with the e.u. commission pushing for the job to be made locally not just brought there and expects to receive its 1st awaited 1st batch of astra zeneca shots. at some stage today the mayor of only firmly believes major vaccine manufacturers are acting in their own interests. i believe the pandemic is a problem that cannot be solved by law sadly we can come from it using vaccines however japs are also becoming a problem because pharmaceutical companies are seeking to meet their economic interests which did not respond to the collective interest thus we entered the domain of global geopolitics and political economy where all now in the hands of pharmaceutical companies all of them are being driven by profit in my opinion 2021 will still be dominated by coded 1900 delays in the vaccine campaign and production

where liking far behind i'm afraid it will carry on evan into 2022 but i do hope i'm wrong. does seem to be all. but there is a glimmer seen people come together in the face of adversity including a german michelin star restaurants michelin stars giving out free food to the homeless. we started doing it in the 1st lockdown in april last year and we noticed that there was a great response. of all the people who are happy to accept it live up here as well as people who may

not even have a home. let's bring you stateside now on the program where donald trump has resigned from the u.s. screen actors guild or he's been a member for 3 decades that's after the performers union announced they wanted to have with more on the move here is to me to poke. donald trump has quit the screen actors guild bye bye that's after those guys decided to have a disciplinary hearing in wake of the capital riots this whole class is going to feel right in short this is kind of how it went down i'm sorry you're here to daddy in typical trump fashion before the meeting even took place he decided to take the initiative don't talk to me that way wrote a whole letter bashing the guild calling it the worst to catch your organization has done little for its members and nothing for me besides collecting jews and

promoting dangerous un-american policies and. he went on to list all of his numerous achievements in the entertainment industry movies as t.v. appearances by his one of the most successful t.v. shows in american history the apprentice the dream job the lies he even took credit for creating thousands of jobs that quote and as d.n.c. and fake news c.n.n. will assume we know what he's talking about but all this really just sounds like a typical trump tweet given that he can't actually tweet anymore i'm not going to go off and be shy so i guess these letters obtained by fox news are his new primary source of getting his message out it's a disgrace sick people and it's understandable his social media privileges probably won't be coming back anytime soon by mid may. and we did have her and the movies he's been are getting lined up for editing. i like that idea that

his cameo in home alone should be replaced with a 40 year old macauley culkin it's. all in all it doesn't seem like there's anything he can really do to prevent himself from being erased from mainstream american culture but at least for now we have his occasional letters to keep us entertained. saturday night 915. we keep the news rolling in 1000 keep with our interest. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race. theory dramatic to follow only closely. i

don't see how. very critical time to sit down and talk. to progressives the left wing are failing continuously to impact any social reform that would satisfy their objectives because they refuse to look at the money itself even the money they believe the central bank. they believe they believe they believe the words coming out of their mouth that's the 1st fail and then every single fail comes after that that foundational failure to understand the money itself when it's not backed by anything it's just paper and only a few people controlling. the rewards of vaccines are seeing government people alike scramble to get their

own limited supplies and some are going to great lengths to make sure they're at the front of the queue don't quarter reports. around the world people are racing to get cold vaccines that are often in short supply and even those whose job it is to be a good sports are often willing to cheat their way to the front of the lines the football club for example which caught attention after getting their players vaccinated it is unacceptable to jump the queue ahead of people most at risk of cope with 19 and the n.h.s. guidance is clear that local vaccination services must manage their appointment lists to ensure all appointments to filled according to the club though those vaccines were going to be dumped anyway which makes everything better right after all it's not the only case when people were fast tracked to get these highly sought after covert shots this seems to be happening all around the world spanish officials for example caught right ahead of people in high risk groups in the u.k.

a number of the very workers tasked with regulating vaccine distribution did the same thing and in the us those who could make generous donations are getting a bit of gratitude in return d.-a over naik major dulness we're pleased that we have 500 new open appointments in the over they cood 900 faxing clinic beginning these often and tomorrow and next week of course the privileged elite have enough money to bribe their way into vaccination city if they want then there's the rest of society who have to resort to some good old fashioned stealing if they want to cheat all the while governments are still trying to work out how to deal with the line cutters and rule breakers in the health minister is serious about having a fair solution and there needs to be consequences for those who depart from it talk is good but as long as it's not turned into action the good citizen who waits his turn might be standing in line for a while we were going to see. in a broken health care system too often where the wealth can get taken care of and

those who are the poorest and the most help don't this is really just another example of how coded has exposed broken social and health care systems that people who are. the population has been hit the most more start with indigenous people black and brown people who also have been disproportionately impacted and we're already in situations of having poor how we're living in communities that were polluted when they aren't prioritized actually it makes for the pandemic to spread even more these are populations that tend to congregate more then more populations who can see apart from each other so let's go in and take care of those people and build this solution from the bottom up. to another aspect that i think a lot of people are worried about during the england and wales have seen a worrying spike in alcohol related deaths according to newly released figures

numbers rose dramatically when people went into lockdown at the beginning of the covert $1000.00 our break last spring stroke early summer the 1st 9 months of last year alone so 5 fellows and alcohol related deaths that's a jump of 16 percent compared to the same period in 2019 and it is the highest alcohol related death toll since records began despite the widespread closure of bars and clubs alcohol charities believe the pun demick spin a significant factor well it's hard to pinpoint the exact reasons behind the rice frontline services have seen how the social isolation and exactly of living through a pandemic has led to an increase in potentially harmful drinking the u.k. is not alone in terms of rising alcohol consumption during the pandemic with multiple reports released an awesome identifying a similar trend in the united states earlier we spoke to dr james gill a lecturer at warwick medical school about the issue. let's be very very clear we

have seen a rise to cross the border around the whole use about one quarter of all people who drink alcohol have increased their consumption and some of those numbers have been staggering if we look at the people who drink over 50 units a week that's more not 5 bottles of wine in the week that's gone up from 1500000 people before lock down to now over 2500000 people we saw a 10 percent rise in acute intoxication deaths that was 352 people these deaths are avoidable they're not nearly figures that these are unfortunately people that have lost their lives due to fight to an alcohol and yes we have seen the highest levels since we started recording these in 2000 and want the effect of the pandemic probably isn't visible in these numbers yet and it's expected that will be further consequences coming down the line so we need to act now to give people the

support they need to overcome these alcohol as a coping mechanism. a u.s. tech company has been accused of illegally must surveilling people in keller an investigation by the canadian privacy commission alleges the new york based firm clearview a early broke the law by sharing facial recognition information with law enforcement agencies what clear view does is mass surveillance and it is illegal it is completely unacceptable for millions of people who will never be implicated in any crime to find themselves continually in a police lineup. well according to a report released on wednesday the company allegedly collected the personal data of users were thought their concept 3000000000 images of canadians including pictures of children are said to have been shared with the police the report claims about the personal information disclose was used for inappropriate purposes

a was not exempt from privacy laws or social media platforms where the company took the images say it is also a violation of their rules of the month about a stop in response clearview it i ses the data collected was publicly available and large on the canadian privacy laws but some experts are still questioning their actions as well as the use of facial recognition in general not everyone who uploads a photo to share with grandma on the internet expects to be have that photo put into a essentially a permanent police lineup for the use by the state for law enforcement purposes images were scrapes not just of adults but of children there's a huge number of of innocent young ones who have been caught up again in a perpetual police lineup who are subject to surveillance by the company or in the

middle of a public conversation in canada and around the world about if they show recognition which is very privacy invasive which has the capacity to create regime of massive valence can be used in a society where liberty and freedom is valued what this investigation does is raise the importance of that conversation and it's time now for some political action and really hard conversations about if there is any social benefit of this technology and if it can be used. needless to say previous see problems aren't just limited to canada for example the popular video up to talk has been accused of collecting data on people whether they're registered on the platform or not explaining all but only boyko. it's meant to say at this point that the threat of the chinese government spying on you just isn't enough to put people off the wonderful world of tapes.

and even though there's no evidence to say that tech talk is working for the chinese or for receive it is still spying on you. even if you don't have to take a poke out do you remember when facebook was slammed for creating profiles for people who have even created an account. i'm not familiar with but there's up about denies that they exist but when have we ever taken sucker for at the top doing exactly the same if you thought you doubt small to take talks by bingeing on its content anonymously. you'd be wrong an article in vice has revealed that takes hold can identify you from your ip address mobile carrier and times and even know what device it is it's screen resolution telephone operators

and operating system again this from vice made this discovery off asking take talk for all of the days that the hard on hand and was very surprised to find out that even if you don't have an account take don't keep a database of the videos you who are when you watch the time spent on the to the 2nd any actions you've taken and everything out down to the finest details so essentially if you're doing any account less browsing it's not very secret and guess what you may have thought that they were arch enemies and it can be as your data base just check your off facebook activity in facebook spending. going to try and live in the amazon and. oh maybe know all about sara lot for knowing the program but the other type of

programs are just starting discover what's being served up after the quickest of breaks live from moscow this is our teacher. i don't think there's any perception united states that russia has nuclear superiority over the united states and i think you see there's a fairly balanced relationship. in the nuclear streeter and i think why do you mean by the ministration wants to have negotiations for what we talk about strategic stability they want predictability they want they want to secure situation in europe in asia and with russia and they want to be able to focus on other issues to a certain extent open the bilateral relationship a more general. a

dog industry comes to life in los angeles every night. dozens of women sells abilities on the street many of them under age. los angeles police reveal a taste of their daily challenge no if you're going to exploit a child here in los angeles there we're going to come out you see officers going undercover as 6 workers and customers to fight the 6 trades. the world is driven by shaped by phone person. dares thinks. we dare to ask.

the progressives of a left wing are failing continuously to impact any social reform that would satisfy their objectives because they refuse to do. look at the money itself jesse believe in the figure out money they believe the central bank they banks janet yellen they believe ben bernanke the they believe they believe the words coming out of their mouth and that's the 1st fail and then every single fail comes after that that foundational failure to understand the money itself when it's not backed by anything it's just paper and only a few people control it. this

is a boom bust through one business show you can't afford to miss a bunch of boring washington coming up congress is at odds over a new coronavirus stimulus bill from president joe biden but what part of the pro part proposal are most contentious and the stimulus debate comes as the u.s. vaccination process has hit a snag new players could help in the an occupation process and later with what the lockdown still ongoing the videogame sector has been a surprising winner in the market as millions have turned to the hobby to pass the time in quarantine but can the momentum to stage the impact show today so let's dive right in. it will be the program in the united states as congress has approved a budget.
