so who's to blame patients doctors manufacturers all the government. kind this story is one of the world's 2 largest fire risk collections some of them so deadly they make covert 19 look like an analogy. so all the stories that shaped this week's news all the games exclusive access to the high security saw beer in a bottle tree where russia was about crowed about the same as produced develop a cyber shot is 100 percent effective at producing antibodies against all strains of covert 90. the world health organization criticizes the rollout of code 19 vaccines in europe for being not acceptable a slope agency's executive director for europe explains the problem was. both along i'm frustrated by the long because grew rapidly approaching 1000000 deaths in

the european beach but also frustrates you because we don't see the response seems reaching arms for us to. play. ball nation mine is brutally assaulted in the new york subway an elderly filipino woman beaten in the city streets in the lake district of asian a hate crimes you know it states. in the u.k. your mom wants this community called be held responsible for the actions of some individuals if muslims treated people respect us all for teacher showed his class called tubes of the prophet muhammad all guests discuss the issues raised. on the shutdown discussion i'm using threats of bombs people feel the same just the same people blood with the feds need you keep on keeping interest across europe and the rest of the well.

live from moscow you want your audience a national with me daniel hawkins wherever you are this morning welcome to the program. now in the round up of this week's top stories in the war on the pandemic russia has an array of weapons among them is the ep of ak corona vaccine this week it has become available in all russian regions for the mass vaccination campaign developers say it's safe 100 percent effective at producing antibodies and can fight off mutant strains r.t. was 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 covert 19 look like an allergy 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. 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 at the r.n.a. is being passed on for further study and work 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 wild 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 including this and therefore we will develop antibodies for covert 19 what we do i want to emphasize 3 major advantages of the vaccine it's safe 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. then the vaccine develops a 3 line defense like to enter a room you need to open a door the vaccine forms on 2 parties that prevent that if the fos line of defense is broken then another pool of antibodies goes into battle that stops the virus

from connecting to the cell and getting inside but if this line is crossed is while the new response destroys the infected cell several high profile russian officials have already chosen after iraq as their covert jab and there were rumors of russia's former president dmitry medvedev did so as well but the difficulty 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 vaccines are 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 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 a reporting from the heart of siberia r.t. and on the topic of russian coronavirus jobs want to type in business ones made a 6000 kilometer round trip to get one. flew to moscow to get sputnik 3 because he

wasn't willing to wait months to get a job back. only people of my age are scared 'd to be that's needed after the summer so the fire i decided to make us initially in moscow i think is absolutely safe. even if sputnik has not been approved for on the european sea. quite clear that it's very very good very soon and many countries are using their own asli didn't receive any call. it's over more than 2 weeks which they did have a solution my only would advise to be versed in it in russian most of the boss on facebook which is a former friend. with one of those for me. network

and some friend asked me next time we give you some free agent. because you know there isn't must be between them the amount of i think between 5 and us and if the soft. little engineer was able to get a russian visa thanks to his russian wife says his main motivation to get the job was soon as possible was to protect his elderly parents. made his trip as a 3rd coronavirus wipe sweeps across europe on the block continues to experience vaccine shortages. a new daily coronavirus cases in italy have reached almost 22000 the country has the 2nd highest death toll in europe after the u.k. with more than 110000 deaths registered since the outbreak and is under a very early again believes politics should not play a role when it comes to saving lives. i'm flying off and i am moving i meet a lot of people because of my war and thought i want to protect myself which means

to protect my family. i think the only problem or splitting the peace that is put to me is maybe a russian the only one if pulled in who would have been made that i don't know in california. it would be or really need only to use that without any problem the policy should be accepted the opposite let's by and less get the scene on the market where we can find it because we have to go around quickly to worsen it all our population because that or that are wise with us initial we will never see the end of the. policy sure 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 do you know such important thing call chalmette the fault of their of our country germany's vaccination program or suffer that another blow with brought in again suspending use of the astra zeneca jab this time for the of the sixty's that's left many in that age group we've already had their 1st shot in a state of limbo. it's just one of it is undoubtedly a sad back that one of the vaccines available to us for this pandemic appears to pose an increased risk for a certain age group 31 cases of cerebral venomous trumbo zus had been reported after vaccination with the astra zeneca jab 9 of which were unfortunately fatal. people under 60 can still receive the shot but only on prescription after an individual risk assessment as comes as a number of people in that age group suffered blood clots after vaccination some about him say they're wary of the government's flip flops on the vaccine but i

completely understand being cautious but the problem of stopping the vaccination all the time is that we are already so far behind compared to the rest of the world and that is very disappointing because there are many restrictions and vaccines are the only thing we're trusting so we need to receive clear messages for citizens not to get confused. i feel that they're now really rushing ahead to fost if you look at the side effects they're very rare if you read the information leaflet of aspirin or ibuprofen or any other those have much more serious side effects and we swallow those daily more or less. i think it is there is very good that the vaccines were is a valid so fast and that we talk about the side effects because silence of that information would be so much worse but i also think that due to everyone having an opinion on it now it's kind of make the whole vaccination process falling to pieces the netherlands this week also followed suit while kind of suspending the use of the job for those under 55 of the country's national advisory committee decided it

wasn't worth the risk the vaccine has been tarnished over fears of rare but potentially fatal blood clots prompted an investigation by the european regulator. direct link and said the benefits of the job outweighed the risks. or meanwhile the european medicines agency has recently approved a new name for the astra zeneca jab that's a vaccine every year there's been speculation the company behind the vaccine as a started to rebrand in response to public concerns infectious disease expert bob all of those this moment easy fix the reputational damage in this case and a 1000000 people you know you would expect very few cases of these terrible blood clots you know the ones in the in the sinuses in the brain the venous system the brain in the december issue out the body just terrifying and you see that you know in younger women so with this. it's very hard to convince the public because now you know they see faulty vaccine data you know used the wrong dose corrected the

dose the may have the wrong. efficacy rate had to change that so a lot of suspicion about this or the e.u. vaccine rollout in general has been beset by problems with several states now looking to break away from the joint purchase skee the show was also expressed its concern it's called in the e.u.'s efforts on acceptably slow according to the organization only 4 percent of europeans have taken 2 doses of the vaccine so far we discussed this and the astra zeneca troubles with the executive director of the double hit shows regional office for europe. we're both alarms and frustrated at that moment we're alarmed because we're rapidly approaching 1000000 deaths in the european region which are 44000000 cases of code it 19 on the other hand we're frustrated because we are well frustrated for the reasons that many of us have been living in lockdown from things fancy 140 days in some cases but also across states

it's because we don't see these vaccines reaching arms fast enough but this really is a court of governments to improve their vaccination plans ramp up speed up that vaccination process we need people to accept and have confidence in the back scenes they're receiving and when they're offered a vaccine to agree to take it's the longer we wait the higher the likelihood that they that the virus mutates and that will see variants escape the vaccine you mentioned a really important point there i think particularly pertinent right now because the w.h.o. talking about the after seneca banks in a said country should keep using and of course there's that there's a great the need for it and a great demand for it but there are several countries i think more than a dozen countries at they're full of using it what is the stands now on astra zeneca as vaccine just in confidence is such a fragile thing i mean it takes years in some cases years to build just a few minutes to erode and diminish so it will undoubtedly and has undoubtedly

impacts it's the confidence of the communities that are relying on that vaccine. they astra zeneca backs it this is very important that we get this vaccine back online where it's been temporarily suspended but at this point there's no course the association until we have more data we won't know just getting back to the vaccinations there's a range of them out there now russia has a few of its own thing the 1st one out there are those put on the market with sputnik v some countries and the west the big. slow to approve use of it is not legitimate is it just because the medical checks haven't been done yet or is it could there be a political element to it i don't think pot politics is something that we should necessarily just just in terms of the vaccines and when different vaccines used sputnik the vaccine from what we've seen from the russian federation's the dates of its own of all appears to be an effective and safe vaccine is used in many member

states and in some of the states that do not have access to the vaccines that are listed for it's really the russian vaccine that has come to that aid and support so sputnik they being used to many member states it does not have european medicines association approval hence it doesn't have a u. member states using it at this point but we are confident that in the very near future not vaccine will be of use to everybody across the globe. asian attacks in america show no signs of letting up to shockingly brutal assaults happened this week in new york one of the victims an elderly filipino woman was brutally beaten while a black male assailant the guild of racial slurs and warning you may find the following video upsetting.

and what seems to bother people the most is that there are several eyewitnesses in the video who didn't intervene did not step up to stop the attacker and that is very similar to something that took place on the new york city subway another anti asian hate crime which video has also been made available of take a look. now

the new york city police department says there is a sharp increase in anti asian hate crimes they say there have been $27.00 similar incidents that took place over the course of the last year 12 of which were violent assaults now there has been a conversation among the u.s. public about anti asian racism we've heard statements from the biden ministration as president biden said during his 1st primetime address and to violence is wrong it's un-american and must stop today president biden is announcing new actions to respond to the increase in acts of and. environments and to divonne safety inclusion and belonging for all asian american native hawaiian and pacific islander

communities in asian american communities throughout the united states there have been community patrols that have been formed and they've been giving elderly asian americans whistles so that if they are targeted by a racist attacker they can blow the whistle and and maybe you know get the attention of people that are around them and that's one measure that has been taken there's been a number of statements by celebrities that have been made about the need to stand against anti asian racism we've heard from the white house but at this point people are wondering will this be able to have an impact will this wave of anti asian violence be able to be stopped because right now on the streets so we continue to see footage of what is taking place it's very brutal very disturbing and it doesn't appear to be stopping. coming up polis found out that most americans are anxious about losing their jobs something they've said online because a council culture to be put into that's off the brake.

the world is driven by a dream shaped by one person. who dares thinks. we dare to ask.

the program and a mom in the u.k.'s war the prime minister that trouble is brewing if more respect isn't shown to muslims in cities in the country could go the way of fronts soft for teacher in northern england left paul so the community outraged by showing cartoons of the prophet muhammad to his class. all we ask for is a bit of respect if one teacher can do it another teach can do it 5 years down the line and we do not want this to be the case otherwise we are not responsible for

the actions of some individuals. however your mom says the he condemns any assertions he promotes violence the teacher who sparked outrage showed current issues of the prophet tearing across the bait on blasphemy in a family are now in hiding after receiving death threats he's apologized but has been suspended some local muslims are demanding the school follow him however a petition calling on the school to reinstate him has garnered over 65000 signatures while the u.k. department for education has also defended the teacher it is never acceptable to threaten the intimate data teaches we encourage dialogue between parents and schools when he she has emerged schools are free to include a full range of issues ideas and materials in their curriculum including where they are challenging a controversial subject or they obligations to ensure political balance. over a similar case in france last october led to the brutal murder of some well party a history teacher near paris he was beheaded by terrorists after showing cartoons

of the prophet mohammed to his pupils seem deeper from christian concern and saw a political and social commentator forms over the issues raised. this could be very easily turning into some kind of a powder keg and you do not throw that matches into such things we've seen in france and in many european countries the rise of the far right we've seen some 2 tier civil rights system pushing against islam pushing against muslims marginalizing them and it's open season on muslims courage attack them on free speech basis and people make themselves up to be free speech martyrs or somehow muslims become inflamed or they won't fit in western values so what's most alarming here is that a teacher asked her to go into hiding with police protection because what he's done he's he's discussed opened a discussion about a cartoon and the why the subject of blasphemy he hasn't actually hurt anyone he

hasn't actually even threatened any violence and yet there are obviously very real threats of violence against him so much so the police to protect him and take his family his wife and his children into hiding i think that is very very concerning and i think we need to recover a sense of normality in a sense of people being able to openly discuss and educate people about these things and i've been around the block a few times and had this discussion a few times every time we've had this discussion on free speech and debate we have put down to worst of the ideas racism hatred we know it's not ok to be racist against muslims to make the argument is your right to be racist or is this racist we need to learn about religion that we need to learn about what people believe and we need to openly discuss them and so people and super about it let's be very clear about this that discussing a cartoon it's got about how it has nothing to do with basis and it's not racism at all and what's happening here is people are trying to shut down a discussion and using threats of violence really will judge. people work with the

english defense league you keep anti muslim interest across europe and the rest of the while to try and demonize muslims marginalize them would have enough you will not win the cultural debate. or is he ok to be poked fun at and be racist against muslims out of their loved ones read what else is and you don't get to be offensive towards us this is not the way a free society should work he should definitely be defended it's all he's done is raise a discussion people should be free to discuss things in class if we're not free to discuss things we have a de facto blasphemy law in the country which is being enforced by more cruel that threatens violence against people. the matter of council culture is having an impact on people's psychological wellbeing a majority of people polled in the us say they fear being fired all reprimanded for what they say online is a chilling finding that most people in the country now are afraid they would be fired if they express their real views on social media or of the nearly 2000 people

surveyed over 60 percent viewed growing council culture a threat to their freedom well more than half see it as endangering their job security we can was the printing on the issue among new yorkers. people are creative and have a different mindset some artists decide to do different things people your next door neighbor the fact of the difference in the human and agree on i don't follow you to ruin their entire lives over what they think in their mind even though it is harsh and it could really go like a pocket sometimes i think it does scare people and it makes people think and maybe i'm sure you know. inappropriate actions. the idea of canceling canceling is bad and is not a good way of. creating difficult conversations because difficult conversations are very important to making difficult topics less difficult. to karelia change the

way that a person interacts with the world of using. to also understand like being fed up with having delivered on the people so far it's just a lot it's always more complicated and it's presented. a political commentator more shared his thoughts on castle culture and from where it's so much. in the past we've always sort of focused on the government and focused on protecting the constitution but of course in this in this day and age the threats are coming not really from the government they're coming from businesses from private corporations and most importantly from each other so that makes it interesting and different i think from anything else. that we really experience and culture before it's you know and it's actually a lot of it has become a social media mob and threats to docs and get people wired and. it's a threat to our freedom on many levels and most importantly it has

a chilling effect on public discourse and i'm people being able to speak their minds to openly discuss and advocate for things that they can for the things that they truly believe in and their criticisms of maybe what's going on in culture and in government and even cancel coulter itself as we've seen just criticizing example coulter 'd can get you canceled off you know commensurate takes a trip to alaska up next the team and i are backing off now with the latest headlines to join us again that. in the 1920 s. and thirty's several 100 african-americans moved to the soviet union and many of

their descendants still live in russia. looking at the risk because they know no rush but i thought it was tough yes it got worse cyclone things on their way. back home but i can merican suffered from racism and a complete lack of prospects. of the deal and i would be a losing show one by elsa store or by doing. so they decided to leave everything behind and start a new life in a country about which they knew almost nothing at all some of the rear troops who were too thrilled to hear in the united. around great crowd. lulay is going few you're going to go through and now almost a 100 years later history is repeating itself my great grandfather george time went to russia. probable worst. to go anywhere why not me.

why don't i come here. when i can remember when it would flow one time in the fall and then one time in the spring you know a break up and now i mean already 3 times this year they've had you know it people get nervous about the flooding of their houses and needing to stay in school or even getting out of new top because they're worried about that kind of stuff and just these last 2 storms have taken so much away you know even when measured the last couple storms in their wake it knocked off 1020 feet in 111 day. yeah and so there's more journals i have to do in general the students iraq and the kids right now journals about their worries about the floods i don't think are as a catch on fire but a fire house let it as the very next thing they all wrote on their route was that

our us flooded we would grab. some of the box of pictures by the door and. they've obviously been stressing about it the lack of. things hard. what are you. i've heard. about how. my 1st year here which was 15 years ago. i thought. you see these commercials you know about helping other countries and i'm thinking look at this place. and why isn't there commercial to help the people here like there's not running water in the houses and and there's you know the so they still have this honey look at system they have to hold their water like this is not america anymore you know not the america i grew up in this is like.
