this is the international for a mosque of money welcome to world news this hour. of code 19 a likely to require a complete review of the british population later this year that's the warning from british prime minister boris johnson. i think we're going to have to get used to the idea that revaccinated in the autumn as we as we come to place these new variants almost 4000000 covert cases have been confirmed in the u.k. since the start of the pandemic nearly 115000 people have died that's the worst toll in europe the country is now accelerating its track and trace with volunteers going door to door to check whether people have the disease studies show that the u.k.'s astra zeneca job offers only limited protection against new coronavirus variants but some researches want to continue use of the shot arguing that it helps protect against the worst effects of the mutations. and it comes after the head of

the parliamentary health committee said the code response had been mishandled for my health secretary 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. also come into force on monday leading legal experts including top u.k. judges of heavily criticized the government's threat to jail arrivals who lie about their travel history or their quarantine plans health secretary matt hancock announced the controversial regulations in parliament. anyone who lies on the passenger locator form and tries to conceal that they've been in the country on the red list in the 10 days before arrival here will face a prison sentence of up to 10 years actually a ridiculous thing for the secretary of state for health to say we're really going
12:03 pm
to lock people up to 10 years so being dishonest about the fact that they've been to coach go by all means give them a sign does mr hancock really think that nondisclosure of a visit to portugal is worse than the large number of violent farms offenses where sexual offenses involving minors which the maximum is 7 years. a man called red list refers to $33.00 covert hotspots including brazil and south africa which have registered highly infectious new strains of the corona virus british nationals returning from those nations will have to quarantine a government approved hotels at their own expense for 10 days we 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 we've not had the proper current aid but now that we've got to it's absolute guarantee that it would not conditionals our borders we absolutely have to make sure that people are all this this idea because it will come up with current

state and. proceed through so-called rogue charm treats or if you look at lists you could argue there are some machines and though you could argue that most own properties which should be only are x. 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 jury that foreign face it i don't think that's the reasonable thing to take your own paper to be almost it's probably is probably government and not all of us are critics that. we've had just a very astute sense of this what was paid for mccartney they were going to rule katzenberg is are already things which are going to wearing those clothes that are turning round and say that school should go back that people should be what have failed to persuade the british government what annoys me at the moment is the only
12:05 pm
thing that's not locked down is the borders the government's constantly changing the rules because the reality is very hotly viral laws aren't all that story which they should never will soon and in march last year well we know lot on countries in the world who are a lot faster because they focus only on. on the medical measures we in this country have given up our democracy giving up our freedom we are now ruled by medical experts and the only way of getting out of that is stopping people coming to the country from red zones and quarantining them properly thank goodness me dick's lore is worth doing well cheap 3 picks up countries now hotels are going to go through funds going to iraq so it's so good to be getting it was perfect and great new for all the want to suit being scared there were a lot of people who are the only way we could stop you variations from outside because the trade is to short the obvious this there's no problems with absentee

with respect we've found in the arguments of persuading people to go and all the places they're not going to do it or despite the inoculation push one coben vaccine center in london has shut early because of a low uptake in the u.k.'s nursing chiefest said ethnic minority communities in particular a foreman for anti vaccine myths r t s k 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 sure with the amount of. put on the so-called. africa away a bit of a plenty of statistics reflects the mistrust a report on behalf of n.h.s. england claims that almost twice as many white over 8 years 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 whether 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 get people into avid various reasons what they've seen in social media you know they believe that this vaccine was made too quickly you know not too quickly not enough try for them to really test the vaccine some believe officials have been too slow to shut down myths i can send you at least 10 videos in my whatsapp that have been circulated 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 to 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 remains vaccinated the virus will seek them out and it will go through their community like wildfire that'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 a key obstacle needs to be overcome convincing the most vulnerable communities to
12:09 pm
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 if i clean cotton and it's in a community or needs rest to make sure that they do get vaccinated days to stay safe to get them to that point i think simply telling them this is even your own best healthy tracey's not a not because it was doesn't take account of fish huge history of the lack of trust of the communities in the state and that's why they are need to work with trust the leaders on the ground should she's holden isolations movements in communities on the ground who have got credible alternative and trusted by communities. they will follow. them anita extending its lockdown to march amid concerns over the new strains of covert 19 it comes after chancellor
12:10 pm
merkel admitted that the government was too slow in its response to the 2nd wave of the pandemic. that of our minister for justice didn't when we were not careful enough and not fast enough wouldn't shut down public life early and consistently enough and that science of a 2nd wave and warnings from various scientists it has been a year of learning together how the virus works and what works against it and learning means not always doing everything right from the start but correcting our assessments. with germany shutdown was due to expire of the 14th but it will now run for an extra 3 weeks there are some exceptions though schools and daycare centers can gradually reopen depending on decisions made to locally restaurants will remain closed the hair salons can open their doors from the 1st of march opposition groups have branded the measures inconsistent and urged the government to present a plan for leaving the lock down. in time leading german newspapers dropped a bombshell claiming that the government hired scientists to come up with research
12:11 pm
that would justify harsh coronavirus measures which already been decided by ministers cited hundreds of pages of correspondence between the interior ministry and a 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 a very little willingness and courage on the side of the government as the general perception when it comes to decision making after each year now we have not yet had 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 wave as the chancellor rightly admitted the vaccination does not go ahead at the
12:12 pm
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 the hadrosaur open in a small shop is not. the japanese government has said millions of covert vaccine doses are likely to go to waste because of a lack of specialized syringes the health minister explain the problem which relates to the fight of my own tech job 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 of the special syringe is japan has bought enough of the fighter shots to inoculate 72000000 citizens but assumes the medics can administer the entire contents of the wild which requires so-called dead space syringes we are both in the country will only be able to vaccinate 50000000 people. earlier spoke with lauren young who's
12:13 pm
a professor of molecular on college he thinks the syringe problem should have been anticipated. in a way this isn't a surprise it is a terrible thing if it's going to end up in wasting doses of that precious vaccine those calls some problem here in japan and it's also causing problems in europe we know there are going to be shoes about the supply of syringes and need of the other aspects of the scenes that we're going to need to to roll out the vaccine across the world as are coming 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 we 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
12:14 pm
an issue that came up because we just weren't expecting that the pandemic and p.p. now in terms of manufacture on the world has increased enormously in an enormously i guess we should have predicted. german foreign ministers head back at critics of a major gas pipeline project with russia i come out on that scrapping north stream to which isn't any complaint would have severe implications. very nordstrom's why anyone who fundamentally questions north stream to you and you can certainly advocate that opinion must also consider the jews strategic consequences that will have and what that means for europe's ability to influence russia here driving russia and china closer together creating the largest economic military alliance there is and i do not think that should be the strategy of the west in this dispute so i'm against burning bridges with russia in this context germany has so far resisted the long running u.s. pressure to hold an old stream to the 2nd leg of
12:15 pm
a pipeline network running under the baltic sea bed it's now 94 percent complete once it's ready it'll double the amount of natural gas that can be pumped from russia to germany within europe though calls to end the project of intensified since the arrest of russian opposition figure alexina valmy last month right let's get some reaction now we talked to martin gold member of the left party at the linker welcome to the program again martin a key argument in all this from the us is the north rim to give russia too much influence over europe but what the german foreign minister is saying is the opposite of that is true that it would weaken europe's influence towards russia how do you see it. it's a position i can agree a little bit with the minister who mosques but as well this will end on the one hand he rejects the start of the construction of the line off into and he say don't worry that he doesn't value the strategy of the rich it's richest because
12:16 pm
it's not only wrong but also the looters i appreciate very much that he say that but i'm a violent as well because in the next sentence of his speech he's saying that maybe there should be other sanctions on russia these sites are often all 3 in situ so i think this is kind of i mean violent politics and it's based on do you start to kill aims so if you look clearly at what's going on. saying there should be some sanctions because of the treatment of money in russia besides enough to know it's going to mr moss knowing that no $3.00 in 2 is providing germany with good gas which is really needed and he knows as well that this gas shown people in the us from fracking gas which is destroying the climate and is rich is very expensive but on the other hand he still is clinging to the discourse of any pictures to what's
12:17 pm
russia and china and i think this is very dangerous anyway if you look at the case of mr novell me. he's a bit you know he's a racist and he's bringing forward in the n.t. social politics and he's acting like and we call it a joke over kut-o. he was in germany to treat his sickness and then after he was already had he again he spent longer than one months in walk somewhere in the forest to film the firm about the so-called team cost of the russia together with. ex hollywood actress and for the payment of. us supported us and he was even spreading use about this so we can say that the church meant often was totally. not in the that they opposition towards nor long predates anything to do with mr novell ninas also opposition from within europe as well france and poland diverge
12:18 pm
germany described nord stream to what will be in it for them they have their own interests of course in the moment we are in a world wide along that crisis and each state is trying to get us all new prophet to get its own position stronger and if we look at that the us is doing a more aggressive politics toward russia germany should do some dialogue was russia the course of history that we know of the 2nd world war want to. because it's necessary to have good economic ties and. will france has its own ideas of other countries they are dealing with russia as well with oil and now. some negative contribution on the finishing of north stream through some kind of credit to my modest. german firms have already invested billions of euros in this pipeline as i said it's almost done it's 94 percent that once it's ready $26000000.00 times
12:19 pm
can be supplied with gas if it's stopped now how much of a financial blow would that be. that could be on the one side of financial ruin on the other side it would be a blow on 'd the. energy situation in germany you know we are dependent on oil we are dependent on gas we caught. in large coal coal we don't want because of the economy so gas is much more proper so it would be a total disaster why we stop something which had been built in $94.00 now that would be very very stupid to my mind in the uk economical level and in the relation not less and i would like if i can mass would have been instrumental i do year and say ok let's finish not stream 2 but on the other hand maybe we can do some of us think sells i think that is not
12:20 pm
a clear policy i would like the german government. plays a role in the interest of the population of germany in the interests of the population of europe and the interest of the population in germany is to have enough energy and to have good relation to the population in russia because we are all living in europe and it's possible you will be the best when it sounds like the ramming is going to continue right up to the point of the taps are ready to switch on the finale live in hamburg martin doul to thank you. thank you as well who do you think you to. next canadian psychology go don't peterson has counseled a string of media appearances after accusing a british paper of distorting his words in an interview in a blog post the bestselling author said the sunday times had shown cruelty in spite of its right up on the boycott breaks down the story. put yourself in jordan peterson's shoes you also did an interview in none other than the times and you've
12:21 pm
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 as 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 we tell difficult stories with generous space time and objectivity we run long form features telling the whole story rather than short flashy headlines so 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 does lifted with factual inaccuracy as the story was
12:22 pm
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 hosted 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. it is daughter's words it is like a horror movie a movie in which her father gets hooked on benzodiazepines becomes suicidal is hospitalized for his own safety and then diagnosed with schizophrenia dad do. as not just to be clear and has never had schizophrenia he had confused
12:23 pm
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 mckayla in the preinterview telling a kid ahead 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. which jordan advocate of peace 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
12:24 pm
in the interview because lots of people with a seizure are misdiagnosed and it kills them there are some videos of what looks like online 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 misdiagnosis of schizophrenia as a bona fide diagnosis in the times article it doesn't just cement that era into one newspaper article because of the way we journalists. stories that one
12:25 pm
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 benzo is and has schizophrenia. jordan displayed some real vulnerability and that candid interview the recording feels. as if you had a great time. definitely only that you feel like you're being. used to situation and that's certainly how it appears grotesque for sure. and you feel incredibly conscious about. the last one 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
12:26 pm
longer and yet the overall. generous to say the least there's an obsession with likening the peterson family to the trunks and similar tamia sleek habitus comments 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 press spokeswoman his response to that by the way i can't believe how. there are lip injections woman you can get them to. the offical continues to trump trope 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
12:27 pm
down in a bunker with his family you can see the world jordan peterson closed off from his emotions a man loves nothing better and 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 school. question that comes close to the bone you know we don't give encouragement and people need so little encouragement who's makes me brutal i mean harry is crying during the times interview just 10 minutes into it and fact. i haven't done. this. 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 cynical and biased article will have no effect whatsoever on what is probably
12:28 pm
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 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 whose side the audience is on. just before we go some news just in the global t.v. channel b.b.c. world news has been banned in china the country's media regulator said the t.v. channels being taken off due to its coverage of reeducation camps for muslims official accuse the brits. gro cost of violating rules on impartiality and accurate
