a very warm welcome to the program from all of us here at our teach q. and moscow thanks for joining us as our. new mutations of coping 1000 are likely to require a complete revaccinated of the british population later this year that's the warning coming from prime minister boris johnson. i think we're going to have to get used to the idea that revenge. as we as we come to place these new variants almost 4000000 cases have been confirmed in the u.k. since the start of the pandemic and nearly 115000 people have died at the worst toll in europe the country is now accelerating its traffic in-tray scheme with montero is going door to door to check whether people have the disease as studies show the u.k.'s astra zeneca job offers only limited protection against new coronavirus variants but some researchers want to continue the use of the shot
11:02 am
arguing it helps protect against the worst effects of the mutations. it comes after the head of the parliamentary health committee said the covered response had been mishandled jeremy hunt added that above all the government should have reacted quicker. as a country we have not got everything right in our pandemic handling we need to learn lessons and the biggest lesson of all is that in a pandemic you have to act faster than the virus tough new measures for travelers to the u.k. will come into force on monday legal experts including top u.k. judges have heavily criticized the government's threat to jail arrivals a lot about their travel history or quarantine plans. announced the controversial regulations and permit anyone who lies on the passenger locator form and tries to conceal that they've been in the country only read this in the 10 days before arrival here will face a prison sentence of up to 10 years to leave ridiculous thing for the sick to stake
11:03 am
the house to say we're really going to lock people up to 10 years so being dishonest about the shot they've been to coach go by all means give them a shine does mr hancock really think that non-disclosure of a visit to portugal is worse than the large number of violent foreigners offenses were sexual offenses involving minors for which the maximum is 7 years. the road less refers to $33.00 countries including brazil and south africa which have registered highly infectious new strains of the corona virus british nationals returning from those and other nations will have to report at government approved hotels at their own expense for at least 10 days will put that up for debate. i think one of the big issues that we've suffered from is people coming into the united kingdom from hot spot countries we've not had the proper testing at the airports and we've not had the proper current aid but now we've got to do is absolutely guarantee that it would not conditionals our borders we absolutely have to make sure that people are all this this lettuces i did recover from up with
11:04 am
current state and. 33 so greg from truths or if you look at lists you could argue there are some machines and though you could all agree that. the only other acts we have to expect people when they come to our borders to be all east about where they've been and to make a genuine declaration i think that's a legitimate request and in this case we're requesting that people should simply say where they've been jory that foreign basics i don't think that's the reasonable thing to take the road paper to be almost it's probably is probably government and not all of us terror groups that. we've had just as various food gentles this whole estate from a government they were going to rule katzenberg is wrong at all many other things which are actually going to wearing those flows that are turning round and say that school should go back that people should be what have failed to persuade the
11:05 am
british government what annoys me at the moment the only thing that's not locked down is the borders the government's constantly changing the rules because the reality is very hotly viral there are always free will show should never will soon and in march last year well we know lot on countries in the world who talk a lot faster because they focus only on the medical measures we in this country have given up our democracy giving up our freedom we are now grown by medical experts and the only way for getting out of that is stopping people coming to the country from red zones and quarantining them properly thank goodness made explorers worth their weight. well she's 3 countries now who chose them to go to college and are going to need a soap so going to be getting it was for our great new full democracy there were a lot of people who the only way we could stop you variations from outside because
11:06 am
you take a stupid shot the ball just this does not constitute the action actually with respect we have found in the arguments of persuasion people to go and all the places they're not going to do it that's fine in an occupation push in the u.k. one covered maxine center in london's shut early due to a low uptake and the u.k.'s nursing chief has said ethnic minority communities in particular have fallen for and seen myths are just a partridge has the details. the u.k. has the highest coronavirus death toll in europe and research says ethnic minorities are up to 3 times more likely to die but this vaccination harbin the multicultural area of happening in east london had to reduce its opening hours because minorities are more reluctant to get the job due to mistrust of the government i was kind of on the shore with the amount of messages they put on the so-called media. to go away a bit of us plenty of statistics reflects the mistrust a report on behalf of n.h.s.
11:07 am
england claims that almost twice as many white overate is have had their 1st injection compared to elderly black britons while an overwhelming majority of black people said they were are likely to get a vaccine if offered want a race equality think tank says the lower numbers aren't about vaccine refusal that fear is often based on past experiences where the incidence of simple misunderstanding cultural confusion or in the case of some patients now trade fear of perceived hostility and racism but concern is also fueled by just information circulating online yet people are now trying to avid various reasons what they've seen in social media you know they believe that this vaccine was made too quickly. too quickly not enough try for them to really test the vaccine some believe officials have been too slow to shut down on t.v. x. myths i can send you at least 10 videos of my whatsapp that have been circulated
11:08 am
from since about last march with doctors other professionals you don't know where they've come from but all you can say about them is they're clearly and vaccines and they claim to be protecting the minority community from something that will harm them and the u.k.'s medical chiefs say they're committed to combat ing misinformation and admits it's not community could do rail only if it's in the fight against the pandemic if one particular community. vaccinated and the virus will seek them out and it will go through their community like wildfire it's not something any of us wish to see which is why we're spending a lot of time and a lot of resources in this area the big message i have for everyone is this virus just doesn't care what ethnic background you're from it just doesn't care about the color of your skin or where you live in the world the virus does not discriminate the u.k. has made significant progress with its vaccine rollout which has been faster than most other countries but to see the program completed
11:09 am
a key obstacle needs to be overcome convincing the most vulnerable communities to take the job of b.c. you see a continuing nation of the existence of the virus that people are already disproportionately affected by gets by this virus so it's 5 clean cotton and it's in the communities only dressed to make sure that they do get vaccinated days to stay safe to get them to that point i think and simply telling it this is even your own best healthy jessi's not a not because it was doesn't take account of dish huge history of the lack of trust of these communities in the state now it's fidelity to work with trusted leaders on the ground should it she's older ninety's asians move little scene communities on the ground who are got a credible alternative and trusted by communities. they will follow.
11:10 am
germany is extending its lockdown until march amid concerns over new strains of code 19 it comes after chancellor merkel admitted that the government was too slow in its response to the 2nd wave of the pandemic. when we were not careful enough and not fast enough we didn't shut down public life early and consistent enough and the science of a 2nd wave and warnings from various scientists it has been a year of learning together how the virus was and what works against it and then in means not always doing everything right from the start but correcting our session and. the shutdown was due to expire on the 14th of february but will now run an extra 3 weeks but there are some exceptions schools and daycare centers can gradually reopen depending on decisions by local authorities restaurants will remain closed but hairdressers can open their doors for march the 1st opposition groups have branded the measures inconsistent and urged the government to present a plan for leaving the lockdown meanwhile a german newspaper has dropped
11:11 am
a bombshell while it is claiming that the government hired scientists to come up with research that would justify harsh coronavirus measures which had already been decided by ministers and cited hundreds of pages of correspondence between the interior ministry and the research group dating back to last march journalist and political commentator thomas fassbender thinks the story highlights the lack of clarity in the way policies are being decided. these reports concerning the last year's decision and obviously to this date the government prefers to be hiding behind scientists and there is very little willingness and courage on the side of the government as the general perception when it comes to decision making after 80 years now we have not yet had say a crisis quality we are not up to dealing with the crisis and this is the responsibility of our top politicians we certainly did not do our job on the 2nd
11:12 am
wave as the chancellor rightly admitted the vaccination does not go ahead at the necessary speed at the same time we are prolonging the the lockdown which in many respects does not make sense for many people but because why is a hadrosaur open in a small shop is not. donald trump's 2nd impeachment trial in the u.s. senate has entered its 3rd day as democrats continue to try and prove that the former president and side of the capitol siege on january the 6th. donald trump surrendered his role as commander in chief and became the insider in chief he didn't just tell them to fight like hell he told them how where and when this is dangerous this was a deliberate premeditated incitement to his base and when he ran on a nonviolent measures he turned to the violent he had every reason to know that
11:13 am
they were armed that they were violent and that they would actually fight he did nothing to stop it nothing to help us. by all accounts from the people that were around him. he was delighted. the trial evidence started on tuesday with a video montage of the riot and pro-democratic party media pundits quickly voiced their shock at seeing the footage. a. 7 remarkable video by the house managers powerful an expletive laced video timeline disturbing and compelling video staggered like the rest of us by the presentation of the house managers with the video it stopped everyone in their tracks there was silence in the chamber. in terms defense team also presented a series of videos showing democratic officials calling for trump's impeachment eclipse tape back to trump's 1st year in office designed to show they were trying
11:14 am
to force him out long before the current charges they got to go on political analysis on the case distorting huge numbers those are grounds the evidence showed we would never know this from the particular evidence that was presented by the democrats but that these folks many of them were already there completely adorned some of them and almost a quantify military apparel was it ties ready for arrests and elements already anticipating what they were going to do prior to donald trump saying in fact this is a political exercise this is political theater this is not subject to any court reviewing what happens this isn't an animal it's own this impeachment trial the charges that have been alleged against the president are that his words caused this event his words but for his words this would not have happened that his words were the
11:15 am
incendiary moment that actually caused these seemingly otherwise erstwhile peaceful people to do what they did they're going to say that she should have known better that the rhetoric the volume the intensity is the timing everything but the words themselves and what's also interesting is that the democrats have expurgated and bowdlerized from their initial evidence the portion of donald trump saying be peaceful do not harm do no harm in that part was removed the only reason this is being done is to prevent donald trump from running again and why is that because many people suspect that internal polling indicate that the democrats realize. that he might be srong or again if you were to run in 2024. canadian psychology guru jordan peterson has cancelled
11:16 am
a string of media appearances after accusing a british paper of distorting his words in a recent interview and a blog post the bestselling author said the sunday times had shown cruelty and spite and it's right up next on the story. put yourself in jordan peterson's shoes you also did an interview in none other than the times and you've got a book coming out soon so your publishers suggest that you do it your commissioning editor sells it to you as an article that celebrates your life and even office to clear up any factual inaccuracy that may have been doing the rounds while you've struggled through a harrowing near death health crisis wait i can even read you a bit of the letter from the times offering pietersen the interview i like to think retail difficult stories with generous space time and objectivity we run long form
11:17 am
features telling the whole story rather than short flashy headlines so if you pour out your heart and soul to a nice lady on the result you get a hit piece that topped with a new and flashy headline and is lifted with factual inaccuracy as the story was written by this woman. in the head she's the chief interview at the sunday times and judging by this article she's not a fan of jordan peterson or his daughter mchale or the peterson's have been so good by the article that they've posted the audio of the entire interview online as well as a transcript of the interview and became the peterson's done a reaction video to the article as well there are certainly differences between the recording and the resulting article take for example the sensationalist claim in the paragraph where 8 writes it is daughter's words it is like a horror movie
11:18 am
a movie in which her father gets hooked on benzodiazepines becomes suicidal is hospitalized for his own safety and then diagnosed with schizophrenia dad did. not just to be clear and has never had schizophrenia he had. which is a very deadly and severe side effect of some psych medications and originally started with benzodiazepines used to treat insomnia and depression associated with an autoimmune disorder his make a. telling a head about the the zia. suffering from it's a crawling sensation that makes you not want to stop moving and so it's commonly misdiagnoses schizophrenia because they don't know what it is and in order to treat schizophrenia you get put on psych meds and that causes worsening aka fuchsia and by the way the interview makes absolutely no attempt to expand on this topic of.
11:19 am
which jordan advocating a piece and trying to raise awareness about so he was misdiagnosed multiple times mis diagnosed when we finally found a competent doctor he was diagnosed with that which is what i tried to make clear in the interview because lots of people with our misdiagnosed and it killed them there are some videos of what looks like on line and i have to warn you you may find what you're about to see distressing. the woman in this video committed suicide from the relentlessness of the symptoms but here's the thing about inaccuracy in reporting when 8 can head to peterson's
11:20 am
misdiagnoses of schizophrenia as a bonafide diagnosis in the times article it doesn't just cement that era in the one newspaper article because of the way we journalists. stories that want to air launched a slew of other news stories after the daily mail published jordan peterson claims he was suicidal and. after that. new york post publishes jordan peterson says he was suicidal addicted to bed zones and has schizophrenia. join peaks and displayed some real vulnerability and that candid interview the recording feels. as if you haven't already turned. on me that you feel like you're being. used to situation and that's certainly how it appears grotesque for
11:21 am
sure. and you feel incredibly. in the last year while i didn't like being self-conscious it was. the problem of being self-conscious so we don't know. if you're in pain you no longer and yet the overall tone. was generous to say the least there's an obsession with likening the peterson family to the trumps and similar tamia sleek how about this comment about mchale as a pair and. i've been recognisable from the ordinary looking brunette from photos just a few years ago today is a glossy pouting blonde and talks with a zealous spiky conviction of a president trump press spokeswoman his response to that by the way i can't believe how. there are lip injections woman you can get them to.
11:22 am
the article continues to trump trouble with another analogy then she compares him to donald trump because why not parallels with donald trump come to mind another unhappy man closed off from his. projecting strong man mythology while hunkered down in a bunker with his family you can see the world jordan peterson closed off from his emotions a man loves nothing better than a good cry harry is crying in a previous interview it is only the individual after all who suffers so overwhelming. there's been no. depression in her through school. question that comes close to the. you know we don't give encourage more people lead so little encouragement who's makes me i mean harry is crying during the times interview just 10 minutes into it and fact. i haven't done it.
11:23 am
we've even had him crying on our t. well if you heard it to. bring you to tears the sad truth is that the times that a cynical and biased article will have no effect whatsoever on what is probably one of the world's biggest newspapers it can go on printing lies with absolutely no consequences and they're all still get to interview the biggest stars because that's just how the universe works but their triple pronged clout back from the peterson's the order of the interview the left is to and from the times and mchale is reaction video to the article scored an equaliser for the canadians moreover with this story it is quite clear who the audience is on.
11:24 am
the japanese government has said millions of kobe vaccine doses are likely to go to waste due to a lack of specialized syringes the health minister explained the problem which relates to the pfizer biotech jobs. the syringe is used in japan can only draw 5 doses we will use all the syringe is we have control 60 he says but it will of course not be enough is more shots are administered the government is requesting medical equipment manufacturers step up production if the special syringe is japan has bought enough of the fire shots to inoculate $72000000.00 citizens assumes that medics can administer the entire contents of each file which requires so-called dead space syringes without those the country will only be able to vaccinate $60000000.00 people. lawrence young professor of molecular oncology director u.k. based warwick cancer research center is joining us now so one vial of the pfizer back scene can yield 5 doses or 6 depending on which syringe you're using can you
11:25 am
explain that to us a little bit further. yeah that's just a case of the fact that when you reconstitute the the vaccine. you can drop an amount into into the syringe and it depends very much on the type of syringe your ability to do that and the accuracy of it you can do that and that's called some problem here in japan and it's also causing problems in europe we know there are going to be issues about the supply of syringes and need other other aspects of vaccines that we're going to need to to roll out the vaccine across the world so in a way this isn't a surprise but it's a terrible thing if it's going to end up in wasting doses of that precious vaccine and can you tell us is this problem unique to the pfizer biotech dan no i think i think it i think there's a general problems too i think if reflecting something that is a problem if we're going to jab everybody across the world then we need the right type of syringes to reconstitute the vaccines we need needles and i know there have
11:26 am
even been concerns about shortage of supplies of glass vials in which the vaccines are stored and distributed so i think these are things that are in a way not surprising given the president did nature of mass vaccination across the world but is something i guess we should have been prepared for. we've also heard of reports that hospitals in the us have found that diluting the vaccine miles we're sailing solution that they can squeeze out that extra dose is that a viable workaround you know is i mean that's one possibility of course and there's been a big controversy all around the place around you know how many doses can you really squeeze out of these wells and i think it's obviously it's really important every last drop of these vaccines you use then there's no problem with doing that as long as you're a minister in the right dose and so one important thing here is not to be diluting these vaccines too far because we know what precise those needs to be are given but each of these vials from these different vaccines comes with the right instructions
11:27 am
about how many doses you can get out of it and it will be a terrible shame because of the lack of the appropriate syringes that doses are being wasted as you're pointing out earlier the same problem is being reported in many countries not just ended in japan do you think the manufacturer should have anticipated this problem or is this something that just came about i think you should have it out has made it in a way it's not unlike the problem we all had at the beginning of the pandemic weed p p e with personal protective equipment there were not enough face masks gloves suitable suitable plastics for cover for covering covering yourself and i think this isn't an issue that came up because we just weren't expecting that pandemic and p.p. now in terms of manufacturer around the world has increased enormously in an enormously i guess we should have predicted that we will have similar problems when
11:28 am
we come to to vaccinate and also big worry here is given the fact we really do need to get these vaccines out into developing countries we really do need to make sure that they are supplied with the appropriate syringes to give those vaccines. and japan's vaccination campaign is actually starting much later than western countries but it's also fared far better than them in the pandemic with less than $6000.00 total deaths are vaccines simply less of a priority there. are less of a priority if you go to sea been able to manage as an island they've been able to manage that. much more effectively than other countries but i think as we all know and we keep saying nobody's safe until everybody's safe this is a virus it's just going to keep going around the robot world changing as it does that and he didn't see it in everybody's interests that there's many people around the world get vaccinated as soon as possible more and sound professor of molecular oncology thank you so much for your time and your comments. that's news break down
11:29 am
for this hour and that's all for me as well but we're not calling by will be taking over in about 30 minutes time thanks for tuning in our view maybe. a dark industry comes to life in los angeles every night. dozens of women sells their bodies 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 they were going to come as you see officers going undercover as sex workers and customers to fight the early sex trade.
11:30 am
please. know it's in the woods and i'm in the. blog legal but i'll blog the political and i knew about it in a can matter i cannot walk by now i guess i'm a bad national mom at that point she had not been a huge political. dust book deals of miles on the lawn a little hazy. and a national shift in the national association. for the house said the community there is a lot of it all small and all but so what is little. enough.
