over turly deprive the right to return to my home country. and welcome this is international for myself and the total whole team here and most . well let's start off with some breaking news the european medicines agency has confirmed that astra zeneca covert job is possibly linked to very rare cases of unusual crops and that it should be listed as a very rat point effect of the vaccine on live from paris for more all not is shall it do you but ski charlotte what are the details that have come to light what's been said what do we know. who am a giving up press conference and confirming what you heard from a top d.m.a. official only tuesday which is the fact that astra zeneca has a possible link. very rare side effect that is in regards to blood clots in the
11:02 am
system e.m.e.a. said that this is a relation over the blood clots as well as low blood platelets now it says no exactly sure what the cause is but it says it's similar potentially to an immediate response in the body that takes place in some individuals what they said is this is quite similar to a response known former drug called happier in which is a drug thin blood thinning drug and that drug sometimes interacts with the body the body then produces a response antibodies produced platelets which stop blood clotting are not conclusive problems for some people who take that drugs are they saying that it's something that they are possibly considering the moment what they did is they looked at a number of cases 62 cases which involved a brain blood clotting and 24 cases that involved from bruces in the abdominal so
11:03 am
in the stomach region 18 of those cases that they looked at would fatal now it's said that most of those cases impacted women under the age of 60 and they showed symptoms within 2 weeks of receiving the astra zeneca jab but despite this the a.m.a. still says astra zeneca is safe to use with the benefits outweigh the risks. safety committee has concluded today that unusual blood clots with low blood platelets should be leased to does very rare side effects of zambia e m a is reminding health care professionals and people receiving the vaccine to remain aware of the possibility of very rare cases of blood clots combined with low level of blood platelets occurring within 2 weeks of vaccination. what they will be know though is new advice not just to those. people but also patients who go
11:04 am
and get the astra zeneca job that advice will include if within 2 weeks of receiving astra zeneca you face shortness of breath swelling in parts of the border the persistent headaches to go and seek medical advice straight away now it's not clear if the cases that they looked at those 62 cases of the brain blood bleeds and 24 cases of the abdominal throat bruises included 2 cases here in france which resulted in deaths one was a 24 year old medical student in north and here in france their investigations carried out now into exactly how he died but it's believed that he suffered internal bleeding in the stomach area and the 2nd death is that of a 38 year old social worker from down in toulouse in the south of france who complained of having a persistent headache after receiving astra zeneca went to hospital and later died
11:05 am
of a blood brain on brain a blood brain believed no we've spoken to the lawyer from both of the families of the deceased to says that they want answers. and. they want to understand the investigation has been launched the autopsy has been requested and done the question for the moment is to find out if it was caused by the vaccine itself or by the way it was injected but today it seems highly likely that a link exists between astra zeneca japp and occurrence of the thrombosis we want to understand what happened and afterward to find those responsible. now astra zeneca has already faced numerous questions over its efficacy and safety here in france as a result of me now being reckon. good for individuals in old age groups similar to recommendation in germany and also in norway you soon will be interesting to see
11:06 am
how the national health advisory bodies of each individual e.u. country now decides to make new advice or not based here may has said today but we already know that those fears over astra zeneca and those possible links to this very rare type of blood clotting is something that is causing panic and one man from cal a in the north of france said that over the weekend there were hundreds and hundreds of doses of us or seneca that went on used from people who'd had appointments to go and get the job and that's because she said that there is now a sense of panic over this particular vaccine. need this announcement will not allow any panic that was solid to penske reporting from paris many thanks well before we get some further comment from a guest in the u.k. a truck regulator has cautioned against giving astra zeneca to people under 30 the watchdog registered 79 blood clot cases among those who had received the vaccine
11:07 am
with 19 deaths while we went to the streets of london to see what they thought. i had my 1st box in the good book problem not get in there because you saw this from some health condition she's not getting it simply because of the little clots and we do actually know someone who's had a stroke since get in the vaccines and not all of them are you know because they love you for has been vaccinated there r.k. this will be even more side effects that we don't even know about this is just one thing that we can now they have no idea what this could be i guess the fear is will be bigger don't do you actual problem we've got a good public health system keep an eye on these things and obviously go be looking at the latest research but while the advice to still take the vaccine i would still take the vaccine. well on the line now is thomas jon lester and all thought thomas good to have you with us i want to ask you with sort of the most brutal question is this the final death knell for the facts or can the reputation of us does that
11:08 am
a cut be redeemed what i would rather say this is an improvement of astra zeneca situation the final death blow would have been if the made today would have supported germany's and other countries decision to stop the application of astra zeneca for at least for people under 60 which is the situation in germany today we know have a conclusion that at least says that there is the risk of a rare side effect but in general the vaccine as such is helpful and should be applied further do you think you mentioned germany and other countries who have reading restricted its youth do you think that we're going to see more european countries now coming out and following that route now that we've had from the agency about this rather to the opposite we have the strong pressure
11:09 am
for example here in germany to speed up the vaccination process to get more people in your late every day and for that purpose as long as we don't have any other vixens ready we need the astra zeneca doses so it is certainly a conclusion is certainly an argument for those people who say that at least on a voluntary basis and maybe with special recommendations to women under 60 as to the senate vaccine should be used we just had obviously from the streets of london some people saying i'm not so sure do you not think that this is going to so more confusion because if there's one thing that people really don't want to gamble with it's that lives that hit i mean they just now to. no maybe something else will be revealed where you can hear the panic but you can also hear the voices of reason i would say that the voice of reason is that one that says well as long as you or i'm in i'm
11:10 am
a good person as long as you're older than 60 there is no heightened risk from being auk you're not purely good with astra zeneca i'd say that certainly there are people who will who are not except in your queue lation with astra zeneca but there are at least equally as much and maybe much more who say that well get me the vaccine i'd rather want to be vaccinated they're not do you think that in general in fact seem to find it meant why maybe unnecessarily rushed because obviously the wild found itself in this unfathomable position and maybe astra zeneca too wanted just to get the facts out they wanted to make people feel safe and so they put out but maybe cut some corners i would not want i would want to judge on anybody cutting corners but i would definitely say that the vaccination campaign is rash as it was was justifiably rushed because we see in the results in terms of death rates
11:11 am
in those countries where we have high vaccination rates like in israel like in the us like in the u.k. in the u.k. or a say in the older age group here in germany we see an easing of death rates we see a lowering of death rates in spite of increased infections so there is undeniably a positive effect of the vaccination campaign. well i want to ask you do you think that this wall breathed globally more distrust towards vaccines as a whole not specifically astra zeneca but people saying well i'm not i'm not sure about all of this i'm going to sit at home i'd rather sit in quarantine at home than get a vaccine with some people yes undoubtedly we have a fundamental facts in the. boycotters but i would say that with most of the people eventually and already now it is seeping through that getting
11:12 am
vaccinated is not the worst of ideas and finally i want to ask you astra zeneca such a change the name of its covert fight seem to fact. i mean is that a coincidence and do you think it's in any way going to help its tarnished image i wouldn't say it's a coincidence i would definitely say is a stupid move because changing the name which means changing your shop window right in the midst of a crisis rather than increasing trust will increase suspicion because it always indicates that there is something you want to hide so i absolutely do not understand how 'd a company comes to such a decision well we appreciate you coming on to the program and sharing your views with us that was thomas fassbender child lest an author good to see one of the news we spoken to a tough i want you professor who traveled to china with the world health organization to probe the origins of the pandemic dominic quiet told r.t.
11:13 am
is going on the ground it's been hard to get to the truth for many reasons you can watch the full interview here throughout the day all go to our dot com. what did you find because as far as where we've seen in the media it's kind of inconclusive you can't even conclude it came from china clearly it's inconclusive the minute it was easy we wouldn't have had to go there in the 1st place of course this is terribly complex of the science is complex the politics is complex but look we went through a large amount of data provided by the chinese you know a number of different areas and made a number of conclusions really about what further work needed to be done clearly we can't figure out a patient 0 if you like or 'd virus ciro but we've got to go a long way to planning what needs to be done did any of the authorities in china say you shouldn't me whom you should be in italy given their code without the bodies were circulating in italy in september of 2019 way before
11:14 am
december i mean there's no doubt the virus exploded in with them there's no question about that now the issue is was the virus circulating in other parts of the world 'd around that time or even a bit before and yes there is evidence mutually it's a bit from spain and some from france or some from the united kingdom and what did you feel when reportedly you weren't given some of the data you wanted i mean have you got this rule patient into 174 covert patients from december 21000 the who are requesting that so i say look there are a number of things we are such chinese on our side to do before we got there including going back to looking through the last couple of months before december trying to identify potential cases that they might have missed and we insisted on the work being done and they did it and they presented that work there were of course only there for a short period of time so not all the darter that we would normally ask for in this
11:15 am
sort of outbreak investigation was given to us then but the darkness continued to come forward. twitter is moving to correct reality once again this time the platform has targeted a once classified video showing allowed to do u.s. war crimes the account of an alter america correspondent has been suspended off to posting the footage with twitter agreeing to lift the ban only off to rachel blevins deleted the post but blevins told us the real issue here is that those responsible have still not been held to account they said that they were doing this because i violated their graphic content policy essentially because in that video you were watching civilians and journalists lose their lives and the context that they give behind that is to say that for the families of those victims that would be hard to watch that would be hard for that footage to be out there and to that extent they're correct about that i mean this is disturbing footage and yet at the
11:16 am
same time it's also even more disturbing for those families to know that even though the footage has been out there the attackers the murderers who are responsible still have not been brought to justice. released by wiki leaks in 2010 the wants classified u.s. military video appears to show the indiscriminate shooting of more than a dozen civilians in a. from an american helicopter among those killed were 2 employees of the reuters news agency. video from a number of whistleblowers now all over the years the video that twitter claims breaks its rules has been posted by many uses but it is huff post doesn't get its system buttons insists that although graphic footage still needs to be brought to the public's attention. even though it has been a lot of anger since this footage was released those pilots those u.s. soldiers you see in that video who are literally murdering citizens civilians and
11:17 am
journalists in broad daylight have no consequences for those actions even though we see this video circulating even though we see how horrific and how disturbing it is they still were allowed to walk free and it was the people who released that video such as chelsea manning and julian assad who brought it to light who brought it to the public's interest they are the people who have been attacked and who have been blamed for this footage because here in the united states are major media organizations like say c.n.n. or fox news they don't show you footage like that they don't show you how her if it is a when the u.s. military commits these terrible war crimes in other countries they don't tell you what is actually going on with this so-called war on terrorism they don't take the time to ask those questions about why the u.s. is still station why they still have their military across the middle east where it is not wanted where it's a legal well we're seeing the increased aggressiveness of digital platforms where the people who gunned down those on armed civilians and journalists
11:18 am
in iraq will never be held accountable for the crime that they committed although of course it's been documented through the courage of chelsea manning and julian songe and wiki leaks and this will not change on of the biden ministration you have to remember that during the obama administration and obama's vice president was of course joe biden expanded the targeted assassinations through militarized drone drones including against u.s. citizens. jobs lost savings run out depression just some of the effects of the 10s of thousands of australians stranded abroad for months by one of the wild strictest lockdowns now one human rights complaint with the united nations. if congress continued to refusal to let that own citizens come home a straight and save the country is travel kept means many still can't return up to 40000 remain a pro what according to the government office the real focus off. 5000 and listed
11:19 am
as a ripple we spoke to want to strain it stand it right here and rush originally up until . about october last year i was still actively trying to get on them since october largely given up my attempt to get to get back to my country because the restrictions is taking place make it impossible for me to buy a ticket even if i even if i am i'm looking at paying maybe $10000.00 u.s. dollars upwards and then there's the flight assistance package which the government . offices but all those flights only leave from places like germany and paris and someone like me if i was to leave the russia and then go to paris if i was to contract i wouldn't be eligible for that flight home because they only take people who test negative to take over on the flight so if i did that i could just be
11:20 am
stranded somewhere else completely and i would be unable to even get back to russia if that was the case for his part prime minister scott morrison how to pets to bring many if not all those stranded home by last christmas james cater again says the ongoing situation is simply unacceptable. says in my possible that i should not be all that terribly deprived the right to return to my home country. the syrian government has used the biosecurity act which is something to explain away that it is an international disaster and that's why we on allowed to return home but now it is a year on these excuses of war and there's no reason why we shouldn't be able to get back this is a gross violation of all surrenders france human rights. pakistan's pushing to manufacture russia splitting feedlot seem hospitals report massive demand the child. support from the capital. pakistan has entered

a new era in vaccinating its population against covert 19 while free government subsidized vaccines are still only available to the senior population and while doctors the groups of risks private companies have now also been allowed to sell the vaccine to everybody willing the prices keep it stands at about $80.00 per 2 jobs of russia's would need to be but well despite that despite the average salary here in pakistan being below 500 dollars a month that we've seen q. was especially among younger pakistanis and lines to get russia's sputniks b. we were vaccinated to in seoul city hospital so everyone seems very very serious fight the overall experience of good in the sputnik vaccine is very good. it's a very easy process without any pain we were bax unaided and after $21.00 days to get the 2nd dose to finish the process. my motive is to protect myself and my
11:22 am
family when we feel safe and secure it will start a trickle down effect there is talk about herd immunity my message is that those who can afford it should be vaccinated as soon as possible. because being offered this hospital also and a few other hospitals. in the reception has been so positive because people would like to work simply because people don't realize that is the only way we are for the world and they have a good will do now this process of kind of private vaccination isn't going without a hitch some venues have already reported that they have sold out and in some places like in the southern province of people had to queue for hours to get the job but in general well it is a promising trend given that pakistan hasn't avoided the fate of so many countries in the world where a certain percentage of the population went well this event and the criticize. and
11:23 am
in general not trust in the process of vaccination and all together pakistan has long shown interest in the russian vaccines russia has done an excellent job of helping the world fight the pandemic vaccine is a step forward in this direction we are committed to attract investments to pakistan and if possible producing this vaccine in our country but now that so many people in pakistan have shown that they want to get the vaccine that they are sensible that they want to get themselves protected against covert 19 this paves the way for further russia pakistan corporation. a stateside a record number of migrants tried to cross the americas southern border in march according to homeland security with reports suggesting the massive inflows will continue through to the water on the other side of the from tehran mexico where situations and was refugees are actually gathering in makeshift camps after being rejected by the u.s.

. and the fact is i've made it very clear within 100 days i'm going to send to the united states congress a pathway to citizenship for over 11000000 undocumented people and all of those so-called dreamers those docket kids they're going to be immediately certified again to be able to stay in this country and put on a path to citizenship. that if we decided to come because the president said that he wanted to he not families that will separate as. you know it it's something we didn't expect even though the
11:25 am
president said to us of course he would hope as he still hasn't done anything. that. you. know please really the story is very complicated it cost us a lot and everything we've been through just to end up here like cats and dogs. it didn't. end up what it was that we can collect the necessities bid by this to provide for our central american brothers who are in need but. i think. these are people that are once again paying the price of politicians in
11:26 am
that you know i. i think you know who would have won whether it was biden or trump or. anyone else who either of their respective parties really the same consequence could be seen and we'd see a continuation of the policies that push people up north that push people from their homes as well as crack down here in the united states is kind of part of the bigger problem in the democratic party i think the democratic party likes to position itself as this kind of alternative to the quote unquote white nationalist republican party etc and so they say things particularly those at the top the leadership like joe biden like. and they. are trying to score political points and we see this kind of rhetoric this welcoming open woke nance. pushed by the democratic party but then when push comes to shove we see them backtrack on their words. well let's finish up with some news in brief and i
