before the. situation. welcome to the program here an international running down your top stories for this monday. in the war on the. weapons among them it's. seen the jobs develop. 100 percent effective at producing. new strains but we were invited to visit the high security laboratory in the heart of siberia where it's made. 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 epi valve 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 is isolated and from here at 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 a.p. vaca rona has remained in its elder brother's shadow even in russia few people know how it works 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 the vaccine develops a 3 line to fans like to enter a room you need to open a door the vaccine forms antibodies that prevent that if the fos line of defense is broken then another pool of antibodies goes into battle that stops the virus from
7:04 am
connecting to the cell and getting inside but if this line is crossed is while the new response destroys the infected cell so this is the preferred vinyl stage of producing a vaccine basically here they are preparing a foundation for it it's protein based so the substance in this boiler is literally called soup or world 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 in krueger's and therefore we will develop antibodies for covert 19 it's hard to find a volunteer in russia who'd want to be very covert 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
7:05 am
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 facts in in particular it's very frustrating i feel sorry for 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 r.p. iraq as their covert jab and there were rumors of russia's former president dmitry medvedev did so as well but the deputy head of the vector institute says vaccination shouldn't be a free for all fights between different produces people get through jobs they don't ask how those functions made or how they walk but all of them meet certain requirements it should be the same with coronavirus maxine's a person just gets
7:06 am
a job and that's it the message from russian vaccine developers which ever jab you choose you are getting the best shot at immunity and we've done of reporting from the heart of siberia r.t. and while we're talking about russian coronavirus jobs one italian businessman has made a 6000 kilometer round trip just to get his ass on the road up on the audi he flew to moscow to get his sputnik very because he said he wasn't willing to wait months to get a job back at home. only people of my age are scared 'd to be vaccinated after the summer so the fire i decided to make initially in school. even if sputnik has not been approved for oen day europe region see. quite clear that it's very very good to be seen and many countries are using their
7:07 am
own as. we see many call. it so more than 2 weeks which is. my advise to be versatile in russian most of the balls thrown on facebook for my friend pleased with one of those for me. network and some friends asked me next time we give you some free and because you know the recent must be between them to remember i think between 5 and ascended to be something that italian engineer was able to get a russian visa thanks to his russian wife and so is his main motivation to get the job as soon as possible was simply to protect his elderly parents along the road of ali ali he made a trip as a 3rd coronavirus wave sweeps across europe on the block continues to experience.
7:08 am
vaccine shortages. in the meantime new daily coronavirus cases in italy have reached almost 24000 the country has the 2nd highest death toll in europe with more than 107000 deaths registered since the outbreak there really only believes that politics should not 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 would enjoy your wine now view of the. situation and i can see that out of all bars all bars. during the evening you didn't do your food and all bars are close it is like a desert. from flowers. i think the only problem of this that put to me is maybe a russian the only one if put in you would have been made that i don't know in california. it would be already need only to use without any problem
7:09 am
policy should be accepted the opposite let's buy and less. be seen on the market where we can find it because we have to go into round 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 the should be the priority and not sound geopolitical. i don't know or even a relationship. which is now conditioning you know such important and crucial matter for their of our country. will fight back to moscow at the beginning of april to get his 2nd dose of course or an r.t. will be following his journey will keep you posted as. meanwhile a group of scammers that sold fake medical certificates to foreigners has been
7:10 am
detained in the russian city of novosibirsk the federal security service seized over $1400.00 documents with a total of around $40000.00 of foreign citizens currently need a medical certificate to enter russia during the pandemic or understand f.s.b. officers also found a list of people intending to purchase the forged documents meanwhile a criminal case has now been launched it is r.t. international here thanks for joining us as bad as during terror attacks that's how french doctors describe the current situation in the capital's hospitals which the pandemic is now being pushed into a breaking point in an open letter they warn they may soon have to choose between which patients to save they also meantime slam president 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
7:11 am
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 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 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 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're raising the alarm last week france and had
7:12 am
a 3rd wave of infections there are now more than 27000 patients in hospitals all across the country that is 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 who is one of the signatories of the open letter says it's essential not to forget about non covert patients. don't you feel so the sooner the government makes its decisions the better we 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 both patients with coronavirus and those who do not have copd that we will eventually run out of bents. germany's chancellor
7:13 am
threatens to result to federal power would say if local regions don't do more to come. and they'd die of warnings of the 3rd wave of the pandemic will be the worst yet that's just a bit later in the program. for now shameful and heartbreaking that's the overwhelming reaction to a recent u.k. government report showing that even before the pandemic child poverty in the country had hit record figures and the government figures show that by 2024 point 3000000 children in britain lived in poverty nearly 2000000 went hungry because their families struggle to buy food evans from the turn to us charity says the pandemic is only exacerbated the crisis. the government produced 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.
7:14 am
so you know it's about a 3rd of a classroom. the fact that these numbers of 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 if it was high before the pandemic it's going to be even higher now and it's going to be irrevocably high 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 visceral it's everywhere 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 a the best part of a decade of a government agenda of austerity you know we've had cuts to our benefits system freezes to our social security so it's good we're going to need more than just well
7:15 am
paid jobs you know we need affordable 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 a long term sentence the government figures show that the number of children in a relatively low income families is basically the same as the late 1990 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 the low income families with children and to depend on me financially vulnerable and with child poverty haven't risen by 700 southern since 2012 when benefits cars began this dismal data shows child power to levels are now divestiture only high children and their families will pay the price and those government x.
7:16 am
urgently low income families can currently receive just over $20.00 pounds a week for the 1st child and nearly 14 pounds for every child that's roughly just about the cost or more than the cost of $2.00 average breakfasts in a cafe last year the government also temporarily introduced a 20 pound weekly welfare increase for families hit by the pandemic and we got the reaction of dunn paskin from save the children about the current situation. 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 need a guy who's a lot of hardship. some nations children who already are. so we need to get rid many others are saying it's very important we got one continues to provide that extra crimes. that's a very immediate step because i'm concerned i think we will see very worrying that it might be actually there as they are restrictions ease on the pandemic that's when you might see some of the damage because of rising unemployment on and job
7:17 am
losses and that's where it's important for the government to move away from thinking about temporary measures demick to. building actions we take are well really great in saying that but it's been a good start bloodroot children that is put into things like arms. because it might seem to me you know it's very possible we don't need and around the world where government is really good there are a lot of things too you need to do a lot but she's going to need to get that same energy. and. speech. good to have you with us today of the emergence of deep crater santa rushes your mild peninsula that's been puzzling scientists for generations now and factor in artist latest documentary researchers take the plunge to try to get to the bottom of this mysterious phenomenon and you can watch the full film all day long on our channel but for now here's a preview. humanity has never seen such strange natural phenomena
7:18 am
before giant craters appearing in the amount peninsula. aboard this debate here for the us as are the. navy schema it is your eternity to turn to iraq and especially. the national your service or a nurse or initially in a theater where the budget and the prudence does not replace the moon in your portrait but for fixed plainest the world. i don't know but that for. them to discover to a particular news that scientists have sold the mystery of creatures appearing in an instant it has to do with the unique tonics of the cross beneath on the cranks that the. they built a full scale 3 d. model of the black hole goes deb you can you couldn't you could be. a car michelin you pull shapes. never know to put up a grand you could be to take your cue ball you know to me don't you want fear.
7:19 am
2021 russian scientists came quite close to working out what's going on. let's go through for you. also still to come here. given a container ship which has been blocking the suez canal for the past week well it's partially refloated just a bit later in the program we'll look at the implications what does all this mean for international supply chains we're back in just a 2nd. thanks
7:20 am
guys or the survival guide next a single malt to start with at least. he should know there are you going to get him back. oh heck no but susan repatriations again look at the rest of 70 years. philip is that was kaiser report. the world is driven by a dream shaped by. saying . we dare to ask.
7:21 am
this 21 minutes past the hour here in the russian capital chancellor angela merkel has expressed dismay at the way german states are handling of the pandemic insisting the region's simply aren't doing enough she's unhappy in fact that she's now threatened to resort to that of federal powers now it comes as europe struggles to get its vaccine program underway amid a 3rd wave of infections and this report now from peter all of. 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
7:22 am
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 not something that's being backed up by anger merkel's health minister again spawn limited sign him up if we look at the numbers we need another 10 to 14 days at least of properly driving down context and movement a look down if you want to call about what germany's currently hold it around the $20000.00 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 the
7:23 am
indications clearly point to this was potentially being even worse than the 1st 2 waves we must be prepared for a steep rise in the number of cases for more people to once again become seriously ill but hospitals will be overburdened and that more people will die again. if this continues on chicks we run the risk that our health care 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 eighty's in germany have had one job yet when it comes to vaccinate. ation though local leaders are saying they want russia sputnik very 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
7:24 am
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 of seeing the vaccination program in europe be delayed thoroughly slow t.n.t. but on the e.u. commissioner in charge of the vaccine program has said that getting russian sputnik 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 bunches manufactured but it would not be 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 has
7:25 am
permanently shut down the page of iranians international television network which to us are millions of viewers a press t.v. set it received no advance notice and then highlighted the american connections of course to that of the tech giant. without any prior warning facebook informed prissie view on friday that it's 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 giant only rhenium media outlets and while the social media platform says the channel violated its standards its still not provided any examples of just how those rules were broken facebook along with twitter and instagram have previously suspended press t.v. on a number of occasions that ultimately reinstating it in those cases though on appeal mr sayyid mohammed omar and be a professor at the terran university says the tech giant is simply silencing alternative viewpoints on its platform. but it does is that it basically prevents.
7:26 am
alternative voices from being heard at all because media outlets 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 they limit what alternative out that outlets can say so they either room move those outlets 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 sow center yourself otherwise you'll lose the platform that you had which you 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
7:27 am
twitter or instagram and i think as the world is changing very fast as we speak it's not a very distant future where where we will be seeing these alternative. forms platforms for us to be able to more easily access alternative information. a huge container ship that's been wedged across the suez canal since tuesday has now been well partially floated that stricken vessel has caused hundreds of other cargo ships to back up all along the waterway however it is still unclear when the canal can reopen around a 12 percent of all global trade passes through the suez canal which is the shortest sea link between asia and europe and there is growing concern over that of the international supply chains and possible for the blockages economist richard wolfe says it was only a matter of time before something like this actually happened. this is not the 1st
7:28 am
time the canal has. been blocked not at all it's 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 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 if you only grow one plant but then if something happens to that one plant you don't have the diversity which we used to have which is a kind of protection against something happening to a monell 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 of course we'll keep
7:29 am
you posted on that story here on art see if the means on your program returns about half an hour's time hope you can join us. is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation or community. are you going the right way or are you being led so. direct. what is true what is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us
7:30 am
in the depths. or a maybe in the shallows. seemed wrong why don't we all just don't all. get to shape out just becomes advocate and engagement because betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. humanity has never seen such strange natural phenomena before giant creatures appearing in the amount peninsula.
