mobile network is launched and popular gathering spots in the russian capital we tested out. our broadcasting live direct from our studios in moscow this is our t. international i'm sean thomas glad to have you with us now there is a new setback for the astra zeneca covert vaccine 3 health workers in norway who recently received the shot have been hospitalized with blood disorders the authorities stress though that it is too early to say whether there is any link to the drug now also had already temporarily halted the use of the vaccine following on from denmark earlier in the week norwegian authorities call that a precautionary measure while an investigation is conducted on the alarm was sounded after reports of severe blood clots and one death among vaccinated people in denmark along with those 2. kenda navy in countries the astra zeneca shot has

been discontinued for now in iceland and bulgaria other nations have imposed a more limited ban applying only to the batch used in denmark but the european medicines agency is urging people to keep taking the jab the position of european medicines agency safety. is that the vaccines benefits continue to outweigh its risks and the vaccine can continue to be administered while investigation of cases of flu. is ongoing we spoke with epidemiology professor marcello denali he thinks countries are right to be cautious when dealing with potential vaccine side effects . i think that their decision to hold. the programs they use in this us in our. professional lives fragrance in norway and we share that right court all. you see in adequate destructed used to to

fight to come right in 1000 and then make as you have a difference between this congress and neighbor street and gracious protests decided not to just spend their day and after a cynic but then you can also compare these countries and you can see that in norway they have. fine times list cases and if the old east. they seem to be gently necessary in norway that is incident so we have to do how the secretarial credibility professionally for the stations of this season's best tool the d.m. out when they have said actually is that there is no firm evidence of a link between the of us seem. to have brought in so. that question to dish no certain made and so some indications may system they're

stuck in that so. i think that he's wise to do. it if you need to he says you know one of. the rift has emerged in the medical world over a german doctor who has invented his own a coronavirus vaccine he insists it is safe and effective and he has tested it on himself and volunteers but the authorities see things differently and they have filed criminal charges our sister channel r t 2 each went to meet a. cup i'm just in info from this difficult i actually didn't develop the vaccine but i used the antigen that we use for the boards for diagnostics to detect the antibodies then of course it was natural to use the end is in for immunization the founder of your immune company which was sold very profitably in 2017 has been involved in laboratory diagnostics for decades especially in auto immune diseases over several weeks he gave himself 3 injections of the vaccine and developed antibodies afterwards he vaccinated for family members also successfully this made

him realise that this easy to produce vaccine was apparently completely safe so he would have such small protein immunizations are done over and over for all sorts of purposes everywhere you claims he was asking for permission and awfully it all submission he's thought it already this was maybe too early in the front of the vote but i didn't get a reasonable answer and then at the end of december 2020 i found out that a poll elderly institute had reported me for a criminal offense because it gave these 5 even as a sense to my own family. was just an ingenious event or. instead of taking him into the boat they kicked him out and they blame him now i would also personally not. resist if you would ask me and maybe that is coming to try to start some nation on my own risk this is

a quote from the lubeck public prosecutor's office he is said to have produced a sars cove to antigen without the required permission and subsequently administered it to himself and other people without having the necessary permits keeping in mind stokers invention the latest press releases about a legit vaccine shortages appear in a completely different light stoker said quote within half a year we can produce vaccines for 80 percent of the germ. population but what will be the cost of the antigen vaccine $3.00 or 4 groups i think you can get by with 5 years could those at most 20 years put those stoker can prove the effectiveness of the drug by himself in his own lab oratory in addition to 97 percent positive antibody tests 12 out of 20 vaccinated people also showed cellular immunity that means that t. cells are formed which themselves fight the virus when it has already entered the cells of the body should we expect

a new virus or mutation to emerge each year from now on that we should be vaccinated against are we on the cusp of a century of vaccination you could of become a disease like corona virus doesn't appear every year as for the mutations of the corona virus we have long since modified our antigen to contain all new material this means that the vaccine will also help against mutations if a person is fully immunized then this is the it will disappear and no mutations will appear vaccines expert professor adam finn told us such privately administered vaccines are a dangerous development. there are certain procedures that we normally follow when developing drugs and vaccines the steps that would need to be taken for this vaccine is that. the people developing it would need to approach the authorities and see commission to do those steps and the report i've read about this vaccine to just that those procedures were not followed the trials that we do all of those of us that are involved in running the trials are absolutely not noble to take part in

those trials and it's a very important principle that that should be the case the numbers of people involved in developing a drug or a vaccine is. not only in the hundreds but probably in the thousands there are very many different tasks involved in the manufacturing the development and the testing of these vaccines and of course they need to be given to large numbers of people before they can be authorized to use vaccines that have been developed appropriately are now in use and those are the vaccines that people should be seeking to use. volunteers at a feed bank in london are seeing a record influx of families no longer able to feed themselves after months of the pandemic restrictions are ukase went along to find out more. the execution has to be equivalent to

a minute to sell operation 0 margin for error you can imagine with the numbers that were facing this community center in northwest london functions as a place to support homeless people even supporting victims of domestic violence but it's its use as a food bank providing seriously much needed food support for families across london which is caught in the headlines and those volunteers and the people running this food bank say that since the coded pandemic began they've been almost overwhelmed by the numbers of families who need support this with each of thousands of people queuing for over 2 kilometers to get access to food bank support went viral simply highlighting the desperate situation that thousands if not millions of people across the country are currently in one photo became job loss for many just with the increase in ever since and we've been seeing attempts an increase every single week we've been doing this for 7 years but we haven't seen this nobody's

seen the scale of this just in memory alone we have a queue for 2 kilometers every single saturday the government should take a lot more responsibility. for these communities already people are losing their jobs more shops are closing this is on the increase and if it's not a government initiative is going to be a big problem so that's released at the end of last years shows that since the pandemic began the use of food banks has increased by over 100 percent and it's volunteers such as these who approved it ensuring that people's vital basic needs are being met this sense is a it is a new initiative this is only week 12. and we started we thought that 50 people tended to be on just $200.00 and now it. families so that probably is 300000 people so while these volunteers are crucial to ensuring people's needs are met those within the charity sector calling on the government to support them

and their work with increased funding to ensure that no families and children go hungry as this pandemic continues. first of all to fast 5 g. mobile network in russia has been launched and popular gathering places in moscow are fired up his phone to see if he could surf at lightning speed. mobile operators keen to sell more services users who want smoother online gaming and video streaming are more than ready for the 5th network generation the good news for them is that 5 g. is becoming available and more and more locations around the world moscow has just joined the club but remember how the appearance of 5 g. transmitters blew the mind of conspiracy theorists some even thought they were the reason cold and spread around the planet. i think.

5 g. o. bugs. 120 going through is the effects of radiation 5 g. launched in china nov 1st 2019 people drop dead i don't think condi gives you come in 19 i think it can confuse us now with the budget down healing process. maybe that's the reason why one of the 1st transmitters in the russian capital was put on a roof the mobile operators said that's not the case but asked us not to give away the exact location so they are a bit worried anyway they're saying that ultra fast mobile internet has just become available for their clients and several of the most popular spots on the moscow map

the only way to prove that 5 g. actually works and is available for anyone in the street with a phone that's advanced enough is a proper speed test. for steve the such a threesome you could use to call. let's see how long it will take to download a video game. and that's about 2 gigabytes. still there you have it 100 percent and that was about 35 seconds which is impressive compared to the previous generations will anyone around me be worried if they find out you know what we. knew was led to store. but that doesn't look at all of you doses and you know this person is sending most of the bit. that are you so nice to them in their book or

name you wish they had the store at the new cuomo because i'm going to show your body is i think too much of. it works. but the more you can keep from being with the new user so we're way too far for mass paranoia at least in the streets of moscow anyway an expert has told me there really aren't any health hazards to worry about in russia regulations regarding electromagnetic radiation and much stricter than in europe and the us about 10 times stricter some people think that the more transmitters of builds the more dangerous it gets but in actual fact the more transmit is there off the lower the level of electromagnetic radiation each one of them in midst how can the public be sure especially those who are afraid the best way would be to look at research published on the internet by credible entities there are plenty of publications out that but as far as i understand it's a breakthrough or is it really the breakthrough is that 5 g. has at last become available to ordinary people in layman's terms what does it mean

for them you can easily watch videos in ultra h.d. and even some new formats on your mobile phone you won't have any trouble doing a live stream from a packed venue during it comes that even if everyone around is doing that it's only with 5 g. that a fully autonomous transport system can work what are we talking about here we're talking about unmanned. as drones as in delivery service is as far as i can see there is no turning back right well 5 g. is the only way we can make sure mobile networks keep developing so whether you're worried or not a new generation transmitter has either already appeared or will sooner or later appear near to where you live or work if you're from a city in the meantime i'll check with the stuff that i can download much quicker right here. or the man in the russian city of st petersburg has come back from the brink of death after a corona virus infection set off a potentially deadly underlying condition doctors say his recovery is nothing short

of miraculous. there goes my took a shower a hot shower and after that it all started i became breathless i couldn't breathe normally after waiting for a while i got to hold my lips when blue and my legs were paler i called my mother and she called an ambulance they did something then took me to hospital. where i started to choke and went into the panic and that was it i fell into darkness them i open my eyes in the intensive care unit. the girls don't cry young decent arrived with severe spirits or fail yet still it

is intensive therapy the patient does survive cardiac arrests. more than in about 12 hours depletions applause circulation stopped 10 times. we restored to active cardiac activity within a short period of time it killed the decent to survive and saved him from brain damage this is a miracle for us. still to come the program report from the u.k. reveals that hundreds of thousands of patients with heart problems have been left untreated due to the focus on the pandemic that strong much more when we come back this is archie internet.

join me every thursday on the alex simon sure and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics small business i'm show business i'll see that.

this is our national nice study has revealed that up to 470000 people in the u.k. have missed out on vital heart medication since the start of the pandemic researchers found that doctors who have been overloaded with covert patients have prescribed 25 percent less medicine for heart conditions and they have carried out 100000 fewer operations than were needed it has led to tens of thousands of cases of heart failure being missed a medical expert says people have misinterpreted the government's appeal to stay home. what has happened is. due to the pandemic the message to

people the message that people interpreted and under stude is. the national health service is very busy it is full of patients with code disease and therefore don't knock on our bill that is not what the message was but that is what people understood it adds this is a clear case of mixed messaging unfortunately many people especially the old and the one rouble and not so assertive people decided that that meant don't bother the doctors they're too busy for your current illness. the words mother and father are potentially offensive if you believe the latest guidelines from a top british university staff at manchester university have been told that they should opt for gender neutral words when communicating with students for example people should be referred to with the pronoun they rather than he or her husband or

wife or should be called a partner a sister or brother should be called a sibling and words like mankind or manpower are also out of favor here is how the university explains the move the way we're right for in the boat people can help to promote equality diversity inclusion and provide the same opportunities for all this guide outlines how to use inclusive language to avoid bias a slang or expressions that exclude certain groups and put issue up for debate with tim to pay from the christian concern address because he group and human rights activist peter tatchell. here we are the day before mother's day and much the universe says whatever you do don't say mother don't you know obviously we shouldn't send cards saying happy mother's day shouldn't say happy mother's day to my mother all that kind of language is banned is this discourages i please don't use this language somebody could get upset and this is really an attempt to sort of enforce language they are only guidelines only suggestions nobody is going to be

punished by the university of manchester it is never suggested that mother's day should be banned the universe just talking about wording and language within its own confines between staff and students so i don't think it's draconian to makes out the fact is that we are made created male and female and they're trying to avoid that trying to sort of avoid a raise that clear distinction that we're made with that we are male and female and that we have mothers that we have fathers we have brothers we have sisters all of that what's wrong with using that ordinary language and why are we trying to police it why do you have to look at intention the intention is to make everyone feel included so that intention is very very good and i think to make somewhat of occasions in language to ensure that it's not be guards this guy is just not say be careful because some things you might say might be offensive it says watch out because mother and father you shouldn't use and brother and sister you shouldn't

use and he and she you shouldn't news that's where it's going too far because it's now saying ordinary language that we use every day to refer to our parents and others and sisters or that kind of stuff. be used line which has evolved all the time you know we don't use language today that we perhaps used many generations ago you know the form of english itself has changed and certain expressions like the n. word to describe black people are no longer acceptable and this is just really a continuation of that process how are they going to teach biology and medicine if they're not. allowed to talk about he or she or parents or fathers gender is very much involved and some diseases are gender specific can i don't think we should avoid that i don't think we should try and deny that we pretend that that doesn't happen and so you know why not refer to people according to their normal gender that's that's the way we should do is that's where we've done it for centuries and people it's crazy to say that the world of offensive language should now extend to

mother and father this is this is going too far yes clearly some terms are offensive but mother and father is not should never be regarded as offensive. questions are still being asked about the murder of journalist jamal khashoggi and the saudi consulate in istanbul back in 2018 and an oscar winning director has released a new film aiming to get to the bottom of the story ryan fogle talks of to option return see in the latest going underground on r.t. dot com. why you decided to tackle the subject of the killing of the washington post journalist after your oscar winning filmmaker us i was shocked i was appalled i was i was horrified i mean the idea that. a journalist a washington post journalist kovach into the consulate of his own country to be brutally murdered and dismembered. for literally doing nothing more than criticizing his own government and walking into his consulate where he was seeking

marriage papers. to marry the woman that he loved i became in passion to want to shed light on to this story cinematically to tell the story that was not in the news there are tens of thousands of people that are suffering in saudi arabia under human rights abuses and what happened to jamal could show you what happened to all mandalas isa's painted in the film and it's just one her if example of this i'm really proud that i've helped omar or that i've helped to teach as journalist fiance. mourning his loss or i've helped the world have a better understanding of a country that is abusing human rights. let's take a swing around the globe to look at some other stories making headlines this weekend we will start in london.
