4:03 am
asia and in africa as well will be hoping to find out more information on where this investigation into any potential link is going on thursday there's going to be a meeting then between the world health organization and the european medicines agency it was the a.m.a. that 1st gave astra zeneca its vaccine the green light for use in europe and they've been carrying out an investigation since last week when suggestions of a potential link between the the vaccine and blood clots 1st emerged astra zeneca themselves say that there's no evidence of an increased risk while the world health organization says that vaccination outweighs any potential risk that could be there but public perception of the vaccine is crucial to convincing. people too well to take the vaccine in the 1st place we took the temperature of people here in germany and how they feel about the recent issues this is and toss in the seems to be the
4:04 am
right decision to pause it spurts maybe it's the 1st step to getting rid of master zeneca completely it is disappointing i don't know what the reasons are if they're justified or unjustified they make this whole vaccination campaign sowed bureaucratic and in crowded out but it's not that easy or much when there is so much criticism then it should be considered too when it's about new vaccines you always have to be very careful in this event that's why surely when it comes to vaccines you should be very cautious and if there is a slightest suspicion then it has to be stopped the e.u. the vaccination program has moved to the glade seal pace and being beset by problems the e.u. commission vice president even admitted that there had been failures when it came to europe's vaccine rollout which is seen at lag behind many other countries including the united kingdom and the united states you know we're starting to see now patients have these tremendous reactions i mean sometimes people just get
4:05 am
a little bit sick flu like symptoms now we're starting to see an aflac reaction like allergic reactions we see platelet problems and now we see even debts so maybe we need to take a step back and realize is this the right medication or back station for these 'd patients and we also need to ask the questions as physicians does every person need to be vaccinated and vaccines just create herd immunity there are a lot of people who maybe the lesson you want to do is put this under the rug so everything is fine because clearly it's not fine and we need to look at the numbers and each one anyone gets a vaccination there's always risk to that always a we need to look at are these numbers an acceptable risk or at least number of exceptionally high risk that we should look at this vaccine in medicine we always see with what the new factors are and then we can let's take a step back. as a 3rd coronavirus way sweeps through europe some governments have been left with no other option but to tighten restrictions once again. europe's preparing for the
4:06 am
worst european countries were hoping that by this spring it would be the beginning of the year and for the coronavirus crisis there was a promise that a year of lockdowns and curfews would be sufficient in that we would be starting to return to normal instead of 3rd wave is rising as variants of the virus are once more forcing difficult decisions italy has taken a step back with most of the country returning to look down. from the data we currently have with the spread of the british mutation we would argue strongly for returning immediately to a lock down to avoid a strong 3rd wave in germany that's a question that's also on people's lips too from the data we currently have and with the spread of the british mutation we would argue strongly for returning immediately to a lock down to avoid a strong 3rd wave here in front the english variant has become mainstream

accounting for more than 60 percent of all cases as infection rates or the prime minister has described the situation as being on a razor edge in paris intensive care unit so overwhelmed with patients having to be transferred elsewhere in the country ill of france is clearly on borrowed time as you know the english variant is now in the majority this variant is not only more contagious it is also more deadly our resuscitation capacities are such rated the head of the french national health agency who had repeatedly said that the curfew was working is now backtracking admitting it hasn't . being a no let me just show you the complexity of the situation is complex stance and is worsening in the paris region vaccines are seen as being the only hope but instead
4:08 am
the rollout program has been more issues the e.u. is still so really liking behind the u.k. for example so much so that the germans have even admitted that they are a movie is the e.u. $600.00 of the vaccine program is also the only in the farming line cause a growing from block state for the body which approves stock seems the may to speed things up crystal we would all be very happy if you would change your working i was in the european medical agency and the coming months to 24 hours a day and 7 days a week and not approve new vaccines in 3 months but in 3 weeks earned there is no surprise europeans feel lost and eager to vent their anger despite all of the restrictions.
4:09 am
the 3rd wave of the covert crisis and more lockdown isn't what everyone was expecting after a year that's already seen so many restrictions and losses and so much grief the idea that european countries could continuously now find themselves in the art 1 of lockdowns for some time to come is something that will certainly hit a nerve and test everyone's patience so let's even ski paris. we spoke to an italian doctor who told us what he thinks of the new lockdown. well it seems that the introduction of a lockdown is part of a wider strategy this is upsetting because we need to decide who is going into
4:10 am
lockdown how and for how long a month ago we were told the infection rates were dropping and in early march there were talks about the possibility if it is in jim's we opening and 2 weeks later everything changed it was again decided that the situation was bad so we are wandering in a fog that causes confusion drives people to despair especially restaurant owners and gym workers people who have invested a lot in their businesses but have suffered heavy losses and have not yet opened so all this is wasting time. and a glimpse of optimism offered by these mass vaccination program could be fading quickly as new restrictive measures come into force leaving the blocks already battered labor market in dire straits according to a new report. almost $6000000.00 europeans lost their jobs in the 1st 6 months of 2020 because of the pandemic according to a study by europe found those in low paid jobs have borne the brunt of the economic downturn and a significantly worse off even when compared to the 2008 financial crisis he spoke
4:11 am
with political commentator john bricmont about the problem. at this point the only solution is vaccination but the problem is. so the loss of judgment on this so that when i've only been given the previous policies will go back the nation is very soon out of the european union and then the island going to buy a janie's or herschelle back scene even though some countries do like us and so we should have as much access in as many vaccine as we can that the bureaucracy slow in doing it is not efficient and for political reasons it's for looking to use their version of the chinese vaccine which is in. the canadian activists has been attacked on the streets of montreal i was well demonstrating against giving puberty blockers to children with gender identity issues who sells them from the attack on his phone for the shows several people approach him demand he leave the area and call him a transfer over the strolls to miss for the broken arm after one of the attackers

repeatedly hit him with the traffic. told us about the incident. but i do like to go out on the street i have conversations with people about the purity blocking drug. the media if you report on what's going on out of nowhere from the road and i think from my left on the sidewalk about i don't know how many people 567 people one woman and reprimand were just on me i only had about one second notice find out me that i wear the. one time children cannot be bought or it seems to me like a 100 percent it's a premeditated attack they knew i was there and they came to get me. well the drugs stop the onset of puberty by blocking certain hormones the effect only lasts while the child is taking them but there are still concerns about the lasting impact peabody blockers have on mine this is chris l. stand again if a child goes on puberty blocking drugs from the age of $12.00 to $17.00 and then
4:13 am
they come off them. there's no magic time machine that gets those 5 years that those years of development are gone and studies all show that the end of criticism doesn't even kick right into gear as soon as you come off and it takes time for the body to adjust and get going again so what's happening is we have all sorts of young adults now in their twenty's who are d. transitioning and canada is going 100 miles an hour in the wrong direction because we have political people using this as a wedge issue to achieve their political and so they try to say that if we don't want to give kids puberty blocking drugs that somehow we're against the algae be unity but this has nothing to do with that there's no thinking involved in it they just oh you want to be the other gender ok here you go we're going to stop puberty and you know. this community proposed protest legislation as fuel on going on to police demonstrations and you can look at the story emmel in the bright

question of the american dream but the bigger question of who the dream is and for . anger is mounting in the u.k. of a recent police conduct and plans to toughen the rules that govern protests which have themselves led to protests. with as we can see hundreds of the streets of london on monday to mourn. the 33 year old disappeared earlier in the month and was later found dead police officer has been charged with her murder and saturday a vigil for ever it was dispersed by police for flouting coded restrictions that led to arrests and clashes sparking a public outcry over the way officers handle the situation recently proposed protest legislation has only added to the anger. the bill that's being debated this

right to protest in britain the penalty that they're proposing for after 10 years for peaceful disruptive protests is really shocking so if you are if you didn't protest due to asian thieves i know that a cut in your wages and will protest your department of health bill will work a blocking railway line because you were fired and we heard. bill were punishing with up to 10 years in jail it's unprecedented there are restrictions on the right to hold processions on the right to hold assemblies ice static events already under the $996.00 public order exceptions $12.14 and what this new bill suggests doing is adding a couple of additional factors that will that would allow senior police officers and conditions to processions in assembly as. in the united states

hundreds of unaccompanied migrant children continue to arrive each day at the country's southern border this is forced fever which normally deals with natural disasters a major emergencies to expand its remit to give them shelter about $8500.00 youngsters are now living in temporary accommodation for migrants thousands more are stuck in overcrowded border patrol stations many of them have been placed in prison cells designed for adults and they've been held for longer than the maximum 3 day limit about $500.00 children reportedly arrive every day and while politicians are busy pointing fingers at each other and speaker nancy pelosi says the problem purely as the legacy of team trouble. what the administration has inherited is a broken system at the border and they are working to correct that in the children's interests since becoming president joe biden's been reversing some of dung trump's immigration policies he's ordered a renewed vacation of migrant children with their families voiced support for
4:20 am
easing citizenship requirements for migrants some republicans blamed the new administration for the situation at the border and political commentator jeff childs believes it's a problem that will only get worse. the fact that they're bringing in female just underscores the fact that the biden administration has been lying about the situation from the get go they keep trying to prove who in pretending like it's not a migrant crisis but it's not an upcoming humanitarian crisis it's already a crisis is because nobody ever cared about the issue in the 1st place right i mean be they slam the trump administration for kids in cages even though it was started under the obama administration in trump continued it and he did expand it but now that it's happening under the biden and ministration you no longer hear about kids in cages so you can see that the activist media never really took that issue seriously to begin with there was nothing more than a political weapon now password to now you have the same exact situation in administration that seems to not know how to handle it.

4:22 am
a couple of reasons for this couple of inches on people think that china has a stable epidemic situation in the risk of infection is relatively low so there is no need to be vaccinated for the time being for extra protection secondly donna because the cove in 1000 vaccines are rather new products some. more information about the effect that said teams have been dispatched around the country to oversee the box addition program there are 4 vaccines currently approved in china which has a production capacity that will top 1000000000 doses this year meanwhile as vaccines roll out the chinese economy rolls on a couple months industry and exports confessionals investment and consumption recovery steadily long employment and prices are generally stable people's basic livelihoods receive guarded and he has no power to me this is staying steady recovery trying to strong recovery from colvin 1000 is often credited to its aggressive lockdowns at the beginning of the pandemic now unlike many other nations

4:25 am
sports. as a society we have decided to categorize sports based on sex i definitely need to do not think that it's fair for athletes step on porn as pie logical males to compete in the women's category. come on. why do we have gender or do you have gender categories and sports because we do treat men and women differently. every single beat athletes all we all have biological advantages are for each other . are the same you saw to me and i think friends are those to day care as a whole to do it. and develop confidence and belief in myself and i've learned the value of hard work and dedication i'm done doubt. that these men say that they feel like a woman and they will not ever know what it's like to feel the loss of the baby her

4:27 am
now molly hi michelle the downside of. the family owned mind. of the hey hon i do it. because it's whole food place choice where you got the i knew where you're from and pay off the time in syria says. he she ought to have a. model for that in africa will fuck around with mr hates it for a gym and then boil for whole foods are for him and of course. the money. i am max kaiser this is the kaiser reports. let's check in with
4:28 am
stacey. well max the head succeeding at what it wanted to do according to this headline from wolf street dot com dollars purchasing power dwindles to another record low the fed is getting its wishes so the latest data shows the durable goods inflation is at 3.3 percent food inflation has a 3.4 percent and the consumer price index rues 1.7 percent in february from a year earlier the fastest year over year increase in 12 months re and the government is claiming that in 2020 the inflation rate was approximately 1.6 percent and they are estimating that for 2021 the official rate of inflation will be about 2 and a quarter percent now if we were to look at the way inflation was calculated just
4:29 am
20 years ago without a lot of the what are called donek adjustments. what we find is that the actual rate of inflation is over 9 percent so that chart from wall street dot com is showing clearly that your purchasing power for the money in your pocket is losing at least 10 percent per year in purchasing power that means you if your wages are not increasing by 10 percent a year that means your standard of living is dropping and what we have united states certainly is a struggle to bring in quote unquote minimum wage to create some livable wages the clearly those wages are not are not expanding so that quality of life in america in aggregate because of the money printing which reduces purchasing power is causing the standard of living in america to go down that is
4:30 am
irrefutable and anyone who debates that is not looking at these very same thing clear numbers yet we're going to look at that chart you mention from wall street dot com that comes from data pulled from the bureau of labor statistics which shows that decline in the purchasing power of the dollar of course the money spigots were opened and poured all over the place last year in 2020 across the board so there was a huge amount of increase of money supply number it wages went up by 14 percent last year 8 income went up by 14 percent a lot from government transfers so a lot of people got a lot of money a lot of it however was dispensed with this p.p.p. loans which went to multibillion arison billionaires and people worth hundreds of millions of dollars got to scoop up millions of dollars from the taxpayer so that there was.
