the. kind this is one of the world's largest virus collections some of them so deadly they make covert 19 look like an allergy given exclusive access to the highest security siberia and look for a tree where russia's covert vaccine is made its developers town the job is 100 percent effective at producing antibodies against all strains of corona virus. vaccination vacation and italian businessmen flies to moscow to get the spoofing the job saying he doesn't want to wait months to be inoculated back at home. most of the force on the face book for my friend coming with bundles for me to leave. yourself we. have a shocking report by the u.k.

government reveals more than 4000000 children were living in poverty before the pandemic hit but now experts fear the situation could be even worse. hi there and thanks so much for joining us you're watching r.t. international. in the war on the pandemic russia has a number a of weapons among them its corona vaccine the jobs developers say that it's safe 100 percent effective at producing antibodies and can fight off mutant strains he was invited to visit the high security laboratory in the heart of siberia where it's manufactured. this sign is probably worth a 1000 words because we are in one of the few places in the world where it has been plastered against the door not for cool looks not for show but as an actual warning

behind this door is one of the world's 2 largest virus collections some of them so deadly they make over 19 look like an allergy and this door has been put in case of an emergency evacuation and luckily it has never been used for its purpose we are at the vector research institute met here with armed guards barbed wire and the no fly zone above us inviting journalists is worlds apart from common practice here but they're eager to show and talk about how with their jab corona is made so this machine is where the work on the vaccine begins basically an inactivated virus from the red zone from the dirty zone is brought here and this machine it separates the r.n.a. from the rest of the virus it isolates it and from here the r.n.a. is being passed on for further study and work russia boasts 3 different covert 1000

vaccines sputnik v. is already a brand eclipsing p.r. wise even its international competitors vectors eppy vaca role now has remained in its elder brother's shadow even in russia few people know how it works you know what we do but i want to emphasize 3 major advantages of the vaccine it's because it's made from synthetic peptides 2nd it's not sensitive to virus mutations it's resistant to all known covert strains including british south african brazilian and others and 3rd you can get vaccinated unlimited times one with the yearly flu vaccinations but then the vaccine develops a 3 line to fans like to enter a room you need to open a door to vaccine forms antibodies that up. if the fast line of defense is broken down and not the pool of antibodies goes into battle that stops the virus from connecting to the cell and getting inside but if this line is crossed as well then

you response and destroys the infected cells so this is the pre final stage of producing a vaccine basically here they are preparing a foundation for it it's protein based so the substance in this is literally called soup or well broth it contains all the nutrients that will make this protein grow and as soon as it is ready will be taken to a different lab also here where active components of the vaccine will be attached to this protein in the foundation by active i mean those that will be recognized by our immune system as well include is and therefore we will develop antibodies for covert 19 it's hard to find a volunteer in russia who'd want an epi valve jab partly because so little is known about it partly because the 1st batches have just been released to the public and partly because its efficacy has been challenged by skeptics and even those who took

part in the clinical trials the had developed of the vaccine says though this is a smear campaign against the institute. i think it's purely an information war against this vaccine in particular it's very frustrating to get my few stories with my country and the vaccine officials are telling me they won't be dragged into bickering and will verify their reputation via publications in science journals several high profile russian officials have already chosen abby iraq as their covert jab and there were rumors that russia's president dmitry medvedev did so as well but the dickey head of the vet institute says vaccination shouldn't be a free for all fights between different producers people get free jobs they don't ask how these vaccines are made. well how they work but all of them meet certain requirements it should be the same with coronavirus maxine's a person just gets a job and that sent the message from russian vaccine developers which ever jab you

choose you are getting the best shot i didn't unity i'm done of reporting from the heart of siberia see. what we're talking about russian coronavirus inoculations want to tell you a businessman has made a 6000 kilometer round trip just to get one of the sundry rebel jali flew to moscow to get sputnik vague because he wasn't willing to wait months to get a job back home. only people of my age are scared to be vaccinated after the summer so the fire i decide to make initially in school guys think is absolutely. even if spoke to me because not only could have been a but all the wrong utopian see. quite clear that. very very good be seen and many counties are using their honestly didn't receive any call. for more more than 2 weeks which they

did have a solution that would advise to be versatile in a rush most of the balls on the face book which is for my friend pleased with one of those for me. network and some friends asked me next time we give you some free. because you know this enough to be between them to remember i think between 5 and ascending to soften. the italian engineer was able to get a russian elderly parents rather yearly made his strip coronavirus wave sweeps across europe and the block continues to experience a vaccine shortages on the moon. new delhi coronavirus cases in italy it reached almost 24000 the country has the 2nd highest death toll in europe with more than 107000 deaths registered since the outbreak asunder ravioli again police politics

shouldn't play a role when it comes to saving lives. more than when you're a warrior outsider you can see all the people who do you know full of people which you would enjoy your one view of the. situation and see that out of all bars all bars. during the evening you didn't have food and all bars are close at. some flowers. i think the only problem of this that is maybe a russian the only one if pulled in you would have been made that i don't know in california. it would be or really need only to use the without any problem policy should be accepted the opposite let's buy and. be seen on the market where we can find it because we have to go around quickly to worsen

it all our population and because all that are wise with us initial we will never see the end of the. policy should they care about of people this should be the priority and not sound geopolitical. i don't know even a relationship. which is now conditioning you know important in course for the of our country. we'll fly back to moscow at the start of april in order to get a 2nd school following his journey keep me updated on his progress. as bad as during terrorist attacks that's how french doctors describe the current situation in the capital's hospitals which the pandemic has pushed to breaking point in an open letter they warn that they may soon have to choose between which

patients they want to save and they slammed president micron's decision not to introduce another full lockdown. we have never. experienced such a situation even during the worst terrorist attacks in recent years in this medical crisis where there is a glaring mismatch between needs and available resources we will be forced to treat patients in order to save as many lives as possible if. the article is addressed to future patients or the population because in the ill de france region in particular the incidence is growing rapidly there is significant growth and we are afraid we won't be able to cope with the influx of cases there is a gap between the needs of patients and the amount of resources that are at our disposal this is particularly the case for intensive care beds and this situation has developed against the background of an increase in the number of hospitalized patients we will certainly provide assistance to all patients but we fear that at some point we will run out of resources very this word sorting is awful we do not

want to have to choose which patients to offer the most optimal treatment conditions and which to give less optimal that's never happened and we do not want it to happen and so we are raising the alarm. last week from the center day 3rd wave of infections that are now more than 27000 covert patients in hospitals across the country that's the highest figure this month the number in intensive care is approaching 5000 and that's a record for the year the doctor we just heard from that who's one of the signatories of the open letter says it's essential not to forget about patients. but for your mental that you still don't you feel so the sooner the government makes its decisions the better even you cannot afford to just wait and see what the result of these measures to curb the increase in infections will be we are already observing a significant increase in the number of cases in addition we don't just have to take care of patients with coronavirus but also patients with more common diseases

of the cardiovascular system or with neurological or on collage equal diseases in other words it is necessary to treat vote. with corona virus and those who do not have conflict we will eventually run out of beds. the chancellor threatens to resort to federal powers if local regions don't do more to combat coverts dire warnings the 3rd wave of the pandemic will be the worst yet that story still to come. shameful no heart breaking that's been the overwhelming reaction to a recent u.k. government report shows that even before the pandemic child poverty in the country hit record figures most government numbers show that by 2024 point 3000000 children in britain lived in poverty in the 2000000 went hungry because the family struggled to buy food. from the turn to us charity says pandemic has only made the crisis worse. the government produces statistics saying $4300000.00 children are in

poverty in the u.k. we actually believe that number to be higher we believe it's about $4500000.00 and that's about 33 percent of children in the u.k. so you know it's about a 3rd of a classroom. the fact that these numbers are before the pandemic is a is a huge concern you know this is child poverty before the pandemic was a 12 year high and you know it was high before the pandemic it's going to be even higher now and it's going to be irrevocably higher in the future one thing that you see now that you would not have seen 10 years ago is the huge amount of food banks in 43 percent of people on universal credit that main benefit system in the u.k. of food insecurity we now have more food banks in the u.k. than we have branches of mcdonald's so you can really see the poverty in the u.k. at the moment it's this well it's every certainly creating more well paid jobs is crucial to cutting down poverty and especially the effects it has on child poverty

however we've had the best part of a decade of of a government agenda of austerity you know we've had cuts to our benefit system freezes to our social security so it's good i mean we're going to need more than just well paid jobs and we need a thought of all housing we need you know we need cuts to the rising cost of living you know a basket for the goods is increasingly more expensive year on year so we really need the government to have a beverage moment. you know a real holistic look at the causes of poverty and to tackle the long term symptoms . of the government figures show that the number of children in relatively low income families is basically the same as it was in the late ninety's the child poverty action group is calling for an increase in child benefits. today's power 2 figures show what was clear all along that low income families with children and to depend them a financially are vulnerable and with child poverty haven't risen by 700 southern

since 2012 when benefits cause began this dismal data shows child poverty levels are now devastatingly high children and their families will pay the price and those government x. urgently. low income families can currently receive just over 20 pounds a week for the 1st child nearly 14 pounds for every other child that's slightly more than the cost of $2.00 average breakfast in the café last year the government also temporarily introduced a 20 pound weekly welfare increase for families who've been hit by the pandemic we've got reaction of the past skins from save the children. at the moment the government is saying that that's going to take you right at the end of september and that's something which we know that that would cause a lot of hardship to chamish and children who already when it's not our own so we get with many others who are saying it's very importantly government continues. to principal. that's a very immediate step because we've got constrained we're also very worried that it

might be actually that as we are restrictions ease on the pandemic that's when you might see some of the damage in terms of rising unemployment on and job losses and that's where it's important for the government to move away from thinking about temporary measures demick to also building actions where we take our well really get in sync habits and even a good stumbler all children that is put into things like arms. because it might seem to me you know be very possible we don't immediately around the world where governments really give them a lot of things to do it to do a lot which is good and we need to get that same energy. and dignity and speech. divergence of deep craters in russia's e.m.r. peninsula has puzzled scientists for years and r.t. they stuck a mandatory research has to take the plunge and try to get to the bottom of this mysterious phenomena because the full film throughout the day on our channel for now has a preview. humanity has never seen such strange natural phenomena before

coming to this appearing in the mouth. of what is to be a good many of us as outside. the sunni told me to keep the indian army and. the national tour so there is. no solution to get rid. of stuff because you've got the president's base not opposed to moon and your fortune by choice could stay missed the boat has been difficult for her. to discover to a particular news that scientists have sold the mystery of creatures appearing in the mouth and instead it has to do with the unique take tonics of the cross beneath on the cranks the fia they build a full scale 3 d. model of the black hole goes deb you can you couldn't you could be. a cargo mission you own shares. nothing no different than you could be arsed to

get your body builder mcduck you want here. in 2021 russian scientists came quite close to working out what's going on. let's go for a. given container ship has been blocking the suez canal for the past week is partially refloat it's later this hour we'll look at the implications of an international supply chains. the world is driven by a dream shaped by those. who

dares thinks. we dare 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 is often spearing dramatic developments only mostly i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk.

welcome back chancellor angela merkel has expressed dismay of the way german states are handling the pandemic insisting that region's all doing enough she's so unhappy in fact that she's even threatened to resort to federal powers now this comes as europe struggles to get this vaccine program going amid a 3rd wave of infections auntie's peeta all of it has more from berlin. well during this interview that the chancellor gave on sunday evening she took particular sick and tired of bumping heads with local leaders she described some of the leaders of germany states is being not free from allusions that they could actually negotiate with the covert 19 virus we are set to see some local restrictions put in place here in berlin this week on wednesday off from wednesday f f p 2 masks will be

required there more heavy duty masks in shops and on public transport are also going to any more testing put in place particularly for things like getting a haircut but this all combs as intensive care doctors in germany is saying the country actually needs a nationwide tough 2 week lockdown and that's something that's being backed up by anger merkel's health minister again spawn middle name off if we look at the numbers we need another 10 to 14 days at least of promptly driving down in context as with a look now if you want to call it about contacts or germany's currently hold it around the 20000 new cases of covert 19 a day mark the warning that's coming out is that that could rise during this 3rd wave that's going to towns on europe to as much as $100000.00 per day indications clearly point to this ways potentially being even worse than the 1st 2 waves we

must be all prepared for a steep rise in the number of cases which will move people to once again become seriously ill as close as possible will be all the more people to die again and us all get them straight if this continues on the chin if you run the risk that our healthiest system will reach its breaking point in april when it comes to vaccinations the plan remains that all adults will be offered a job by the end of september that's a plan that looks particularly bishops right now when you take into account that not all of the over their eighty's in germany have had one job yet when it comes to vaccinate. local leaders saying they want russia sputnik v vaccine to get approval so that can be used in the fight against covert the approval of sputnik we must be decided as soon as possible i'm fighting for sputnik v. not just because it's been produced in russia i believe that we should buy all vaccines which are available it has nothing to do with party politics or a proximity to moscow i find west german ideological sensitivities on this question

silly supply issues as well as investigations into the safety of vaccines and seeing the vaccination program in europe be delayed so slow where the e.u. commissioner in charge of the vaccine program has said that getting russian slotnick the vaccine online wouldn't be a magic bullet that would fix all of europe's problems if the vaccine is certified within weeks or months and the way is found to produce it in europe it would take at least 10 to 14 months before the 1st batch is manufactured but it would not be a response to our problems today or with the vaccination levels not being as high as they are in other parts of the world europe is staring down the barrel of more lockdowns more restrictions on its citizens. facebook is permanently shut down the page of iran's international television network which has

millions of followers and press t.v. said it received no advance notice and highlighted the american connections of the tech giant. without any prior warning facebook informed christie on friday that its account had been shut down for what it claimed to be the iranian news channel's failure to follow our community standards this is yet another attack by the us based social media giants on the reunion media outlets while the social media platform says the channel violated its standards it's not provided any examples of just how the rules were broken facebook along with twitter and instagram has previously suspended press t.v. on a number of occasions reinstating it in those cases though on appeal so i have him around here professor at tehran university as the tech giant is silencing alternative viewpoints on its platform. but it does is that it basically prevents. alternative voices from being heard at all because those that use facebook can be seen what they say and what they write. can be seen across the world but on the

other hand what they do is the limit what of turnitin out that. can say so they either room move those out that's such as what they've done with press t.v. with its millions of followers and therefore it can it can no longer be seen across the world or in iran but what are what it also does is that it creates fear among others it creates a general sense of censorship or a general feeling that you have to southcentral yourself otherwise you'll lose the platform that you had which we worked so hard to build but the problem that this creates for themselves is that when they go too far they create an incentive among non-western countries to build their own capabilities that can rival facebook or twitter or instagram and i think as the world is changing very fast as we speak. it's not

a very distant future where we where we will be seeing these alternative. forms platforms for us to be able to more easily access alternative information. next to huge container ship spin wedged across the souse canals it's tuesday has now been partially refloated the stricken vessel has caused hundreds of cargo ships to back up along the waterway but it's still unclear when the canal will reopen 12 percent of all global trade passes through the suez canal which is the shortest sealing between asia and europe there is growing concern over international supply chains because of the blockage economist richard wolfe says it was only a bunch of time though for something like this happened this is not the 1st time the command. has been blocked not at all it's a very vulnerable this canal particularly in the area where this ship is jammed very narrow part of the canal i think you could do a good bit on the suez canal you'd have to spend the money to widen then to deep

and then to take steps to have fallback plans for moving cargo even relatively small distances if you could back ships down to the stranded ship there are all kinds of mechanisms that you could have it in place if you were taking seriously the vulnerability it's a little bit like in agriculture you can make more acreage produce more goods at the only grow one plant but then if something happens to that one plant you don't have the diversity which we used to add which is a kind of protection against something happening to a model culture you have to think like that if you don't if you're only focused on your short term profits then you run into these problems. and i bet you brought up to date pre-show you company have a non-teacher national don't forget we do have plenty more news stories we have covered for you forgot time pup of tell website check out dot com.

when civil rights marches led to assassinations of icons like martin luther king jr and malcolm x. in part 2 will be speaking to avengers endgame hollywood actor frank grillo about his post covert 19 politics in cinema but 1st joining me now from new york is the co-founder of the black eyes matter greater new york chapter who knew some walk thanks so much for coming on to these opening arguments today why is the case so important given the centuries you have articulated of pain for people of color and the americas. well this is where the rubber meets the road everyone across the world saw the george floyd killing everybody experience that paying everybody into size with black people in that moment i guess right now is the true test of the american justice system.
