i'm with you. in the future. more of. a europe. criticized feeling to secure a french. press we have missed a good chance in france. because it has been liberated from the european union the government and. everything. desperate times call for desperate measures. on issues in order. to draw attention to the fact. i did it as

a provocation. i mean that. it is not. and. struggled to get. from moscow to the world this is r.t. international pleasure to have you with us today our top story. france's leader himself in the firing line after failing to secure supplies of a vaccine from his own country before the u.k. and money government refused to buck the job developer in contrast to london which worked with the french company to get the shots. 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 european union with more from here charlatans. france was already feeling a little dejected after attempts by pharmaceutical company sanofi and the pastor institute failed to find a viable vaccine for code 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 said 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 says 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 i think what you mean what happened in the united kingdom the rolled out the red carpet for never they helped with financing 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 benjamin 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 it 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. 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 covert job to all the well into 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 shola do you can ski r.t. paris britain's astra zeneca has started deliveries of its covert 19 job but it's

not for everybody norway and denmark have become the latest countries not to recommended for people over 65. we have reviewed the documentation and until we have seen more data on efficacy among the elderly it is our recommendation that the vaccine for astra zeneca should 1st and foremost be efforts of people under 65 years of age without increased risk of serious illness from covered 19 yeah and it does seem to be following a pattern earlier france germany italy sweden spain also advised against vaccinating the elderly with the astra zeneca job they say there's not enough evidence to suggest it's safe for older people a researcher we spoke to says that the company did test the vaccine all members of age group but on too few people 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 wrote 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 use top diplomat used to burrell speaking during his visit to moscow this week expressed hope that the russian sputnik b. vaccine would 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 the vaccine you know that could be usual szell into the pm union state who will be good news because as you know we are facing a shortage of vaccine just to reiterate by the way

a recent study published in the or known lunsford medical journal find that sputnik 3 was more than 90 percent effective including in people aged 60 and over now in terms of european seals the czech republic is now considering following hungary in buying the russian vaccine. unfortunately i have to say that we just do not have enough. and that's why it's so important that when it comes to the points of origin of folks in the nation it shouldn't be political issue since i'm not a political question but one of safety. let's bring another microbiologist on to the program who believes sputnik really has the stink that product does in the way it was developed. the meat and genes of the you know the vaccine is that combines types of these and the latest fighting one is that it's absolutely critical at 526 have been selected before in the course of development of against

h.r.t. as to pipes are very rich that in europe is actually quite low in the human population and it's excellent that we are today and. using part of crime and the vaccine bets that's a great approach that's why from 2nd point of view he really has the quality get might make it quite clear that maybe the way forward but again it is absolutely critical that the sit on the population on which it will be like many in the educational but since it's environment or general spritz needs of the population and the overall if you will michael bio and environmental there are or community action or infections and. it's always very important to vested in the convicts in maturity and ventura i mean. now a turn of the story scott a lot of people talking in italy ellen de beyond

a telling there has resorted to desperate measures to come back the virus the mirror has issued a decree forbidding anybody from getting sick to draw attention to the fact that alone doesn't have a doctor. e r r. 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. it's really was the epicenter of the corona virus outbreak in europe last week a grim milestone was reached 90000 deaths related to cohabit the country though relaxed coronavirus restrictions on monday in most regions with people know having

greater freedom to travel they can also visit bars restaurants and museums like the rest of the e.u. italy has seen vaccine shortages to the country has no filed a petition in fact with the e.u. commission pushing for the jobs to be made locally aleck's pecks to receive also its long awaited 1st budget astra zeneca shots this week and the murder of a furry again believes major boxing manufacturers are acting in their sole 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 900 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 well the headlines may suggest it's not all doom and gloom. seeing people come together in the face of adversity including a german michelin star restaurant which is now giving out its food free to the homeless. as for funding we started doing it in the 1st lot down in april last year and we noticed that there was a great response. and

have all the people who are happy to accept it who live up here as well as people who may not even have a home. i guess move to a completely different type of story not double trump has resulting from the us screen actors guild where he's been a member for some 3 decades that's after the performers union and once they wanted to expel the former president of the united states with more on the move here's dmitri polk. 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 natty and 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 sure. 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 i made mine. and we did have 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. the rich powerful jump the cobra vaccine issue we examined in next story after the break. the world is driven by a dream shaped by one person. thinks

. we are here to ask. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race. spearing dramatic to follow only closely i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk.

17 minutes into the program welcome back the road a lot of folks seen governments and people alike scramble to get their homes on limited supplies. are going to great lengths to make sure they're at the front of the queue just don't quarter reports. around the world people are racing to get cold the 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 line 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.m. over in a major donna's we are 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 if 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 wealthy 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. ignorant on wheels i've seen

a worrying spike and alcohol related according to newly released figures numbers route dramatically when people went into lockdown at the beginning of the pandemic last spring the 1st 9 months of last year alone so over $5000.00 alcohol related deaths style is a jump of 16 percent compared to the same period in 2019 that's the highest alcohol related death toll since records began despite the widespread closure of bars and clubs i'll call charities believe the mix being 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 well the u.k. is not alone in terms of rising alcohol consumption curing the pandemic with multiple reports released in also my 10 find a similar thread in the us earlier we spoke to dr james gill he's

a lecturer at britain's work 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 people who drink over 50 units a week that's more about 5 bottles of wine in the week that's gone up from 1500000 people before lock down to now over 2500000 people we sort 10 percent rise in acute intoxication deaths that was $352.00 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 level 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. to moving the program or know a u.s. technology company has been accused of illegally must surveilling people in keller the investigation by the canadian privacy commission alleges that new york based firm clearview a broke the law by sharing facial recognition information with law enforcement agencies what clearview 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. according to a report released just days ago the company allegedly collected the personal data of users without their consent 3000000000 images of canadians including pictures of children are said to have been shared with the police the report claims that the

personal information systems was used for inappropriate purposes and is not exempt from privacy laws social media platforms where the company took the images say it's also a violation of their rules and have them under about a stop no in response clearview a i say 3rd data collected was publicly available also allowed under 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 in this earth 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 privacy problems aren't just limited to count of the popular video up tech talk has been accused of collecting data on people whether they're registered on the platform or not polly biker explains how that worked. 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 fine on you. even if you don't have to take a toke account do you remember when facebook was slammed for creating profiles for people who have even created an account. i'm not familiar with there's nothing about denies that they exist but when have we ever taken stuff 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 all theresa and operating system again this from vice made this discovery off asking

take talk for all of the days that the i pod on hand and he 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 don't want to meet your data base just check your off facebook activity in facebook spending. going to try and let me add that. oh maybe not all. those markets followers among you will know it's been quite the ride this week for silver next the kaiser report delves into whether the precious metals

rally is a blip or ready to keep moving on up stay close it all starts involved. secret prisons are not usually what comes to mind when thinking about europe however even the most prosperous can be deceived we've been busy roads along there were to view houses were our prison was located and the only people had access to the story for investigators hell they uncovered the darkest dealings of the secret services but i mean. the great of nor been. for. crying for justice on r.t. . join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to

us of the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see you then. no insulin would see that and there could be blog but i'll blog. and then you're back in a can matter a canard while we're. on about national. should i not mean i. just thought well you'll some miles on them a little hazy. and. a national shift in the national association. doesn't know how to set the commute into and out of it all small

a lot of the so what is. needed cannot give the impetus that all of you in the nose you know get a feel good. persona and know it when i might. be my name a few of the. i'm max keiser this is the kaiser report we're going to talk about something near and dear to everybody's heart money. writes well i want to actually go back in time because exactly 100 episodes before this one episode

k r 1555 so good to you to book that up kaiser report episode 155 the title of the episode was called the cantillon monopoly because this is in the news today what 10 months later 8 months later and the synopsis for episode 155 was in this episode a kaiser report max and stacy discuss the history of the monopoly board that is the u.s. economy whereby the fee out pyramid scheme started in 1991 only a few short years after the civil rights act those who held all the assets in 1981 became fabulously wealthy compared to those without assets as the central bank began printing money furiously over the ensuing decades that's a cantillon effect whoever has all the assets whoever is closest to the money printing they get all the wealth right so this comes into effect because the new york fed.
