join us in the depths. or a maybe in the shallows. there are cases of one usually blood. following vaccination with the astra zeneca vaccine should be listed as defects of the vaccine the european medicines agency maintains the benefits are vast resentment because covert jobs still outweigh the risks while warning blood clots should be listed as a rare side effect. until it is a u. turn still a u. turn if you change your mind a 2nd time and go back to your original stance properly and correspondent probes chancellor merkel's embarrassing double bind track and she now supports a national german lockdown and yes again. a biological fukushima

scientists concerned with the surge in covert 19 fate teletubbies in brazil say the death rate may soon break the record january ways in the u.s. we hear from a professor who sounded the alarm. if we don't do anything we could be in the middle of a historical tragedy to the problem of the. largest humanitarian tragedy of the 21st century. a warning is issued over alleged sexual assaults are just child migrants isolated texas governor is the president biden to shut the site labeling it to health and safety nightmare. very warm welcome and good morning to you it's 11 am here in moscow and you're watching r.t. international with me becky aaron. and our top story a benefit. quote outweigh the risks of side effects europe's medical regulator has
4:02 am
stood by britain's astra zeneca vaccine while noting blood clots should be listed as rare side effects the regulator has received more than 200 reports of blood clots and those getting the shot that's among the more than 30000000 who've been inoculated across europe meanwhile the u.k. or thirty's will now offer an alternative to astra zeneca so those under 30 due to the blood clot link 80 people in the country have suffered clausing after a dose with 19 deaths but britain's regulator is following the rhetoric of the european medicines agency artie's more ghastly ever ports are the takeaway the message that europe's health authorities want to leave you with is that it's still worth it the benefits outweigh the risks the benefits outweigh the risks there's become almost a slogan for the actions that make a vaccine earth poor to cases of unusual blood clotting following
4:03 am
vaccination with the astra zeneca vaccine should be listed as possible side effects of the vaccine it's important that both vaccinated people and health care professionals are aware of the signs and symptoms of these unusual blood clotting disorder so that they could be spotted quickly to minimize any possible risks so why did it take so long i mean the rumors began months and months ago that a result in the news on t.v. and the papers and the company kept telling everyone the same thing there's a new link between the jab and the well dive analysis of our safety data more than 10000000 records has shown no evidence of an increased risk of billie's or deep vein thrombosis and a defined age group gender batch or in any particular country. unfortunately
4:04 am
there was a link there now he actually said it could job we'll have i've additional warning or it can cause blood clots and potentially death in people as young as 8 seed the age the youngest deceased and still they say it's worth it unless of course you can go and get another job in which case probably best to go for that their words adults who are age 18 to 29 years old who do not have an underlying health condition that puts them at higher risk from serious kovan 1000 disease should be offered an alternative covered night in fact seen in preference to the astra zeneca vaccine where such an alternative is available over a dozen countries only counting the european union have suspended vaccination with the astra zeneca vaccine or that servia to please their marketing department though i doubt that a simple rebranding is going to cleanse their reputation i would definitely say is
4:05 am
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 a company comes to such a decision at the end of the day i can't help but partially agree with them the alternative waiting for another vaccine could have cost thousands of lives but only partially they let these rumors steward fester for months before coming out and admitting that essentially people were right to be afraid and that unfortunately has done irreparable damage to the vaccination drive worldwide. chris tricks and reversal angela merkel's had yet another change of heart as she fights germany's 3rd wave of the pandemic the chancellor is now back to short
4:06 am
national lockdown despite angry opposition from the political establishment and correspondent peter on the has the story. it may be one of the great questions for philosophers of our age if you u.-turn on a u.-turn does it just being the plan you set out with in the 1st place we cast our minds back a few weeks angela merkel and the leaders of germany 16 states met and decided the country would go into a tougher. ovid lock down that plan lasted just over 24 hours before the chancellor came back out and said it's my fault i got it wrong actually we're not going to do that it now seems we may be set for a change again armen last year to use the chairman of the const the christian democratic union party also the leader of the state of north rhine-westphalia has put forward the idea that germany should go into a short sharp lock down and it does seem that that plan has the backing of
4:07 am
chancellor angela merkel. any call for a short uniform lockdown is rate i joined uniform federal approach would also be important here the variety of troops adopted does not contribute to security and acceptance at the moment. and lash it is widely tipped to be the conservative union blocs candidate to run as chancellor and the upcoming german elections this september his plan is a short sharp lock down stricter rules put in place across the board all over germany and then after that in an attempt to try and get this 3rd wave of covert 1900 control after that then we open up using more testing and more tracking in tracing applications this idea also has the backing of the other man who may well be the candidate for the conservative union the leader of the state of bavaria market he's but it's planned he also in an interview gave his full backing to
4:08 am
yen span the battled german health minister at the moment who's come in for a lot of flak over his handling of. the pandemic not everybody is are supportive of mr lasher it's plan though a number of other local leaders here in germany saying they're not on side with this blanket move across the country at all does governor last should want to close the big care centers completely include an emergency kit or does he want to totally shut down the economy how long and with what concrete goal are the measures to last all this is unclear businesses and citizens expect a more sophisticated strategy from the federal government and the governors after more than a year of the pandemic the focus should now rather be on pushing ahead with vaccinations there are calls for action from the german people though they look abroad to other countries getting back to normal and see themselves stuck in the middle of a 3rd wave of the virus the 7 day indices currently stands at around $110.00 cases
4:09 am
per 100000 of the population the aim is to keep that 100 they'll be a big meeting on monday between angle of merkel and the leaders of germany 16 states where they'll be expected to decide exactly what the future will hold and whether it will go into a nationwide short sharp lockdown what people here though are wanting is some form of definitive action from the government and they'll be a lot of eyes on monday to see if that's the date that comes when we went to germany statistics office and released alarming figures showing the pandemic spanx the country's worst financial deficit since reunification 3 decades ago and member of the ruling c.d.u. party economics professor max also told our sister channel r.t. deutsche that translates to real suffering for businesses and individuals. no question the eclipse of the world trade has partially collapsed in germany itself
4:10 am
there are structural deviations retail trade hasn't grown for a long time huge shortfalls in revenue have occurred in the middle class restaurants and the hotel business there are also changes in the country's system we're really losing jobs because of retail bankruptcies this is not happened to everyone yet but it will happen to many more now we already have a lot of unemployed people trade has not withstood the strong recession and germany in particular because of the strict lockdown and our dependence on world trade i would rate this crisis twice as severe as the financial crisis in 2008 and i believe that now in the midst of the covert crisis the mood has changed dramatically at 1st everyone thought that we were well equipped and then there was 180 degree turn we have very weak politicians they are just followers we are now definitely dealing with the digitalisation lobby a panic lobby a bullying lobby and a pharmaceutical lobby merkel is busy figuring out how best to stay in power the
4:11 am
big lobbyists have become very influential. a biological fukushima that's how scientists times describes the covert situation in brazil following a surge in casualties they grim prediction is the country's death toll may soon break january's us right court the physician told us the scale of the problem. really severe in brazil is very critical right now we are in the middle of a national hospital collapse. and exponential growth of new cases in the country for the 1st time in brazilian history in this month of april we may have more deaths in the country of the worse this has never happened in the brazilian brazilian history what we need it now is
4:12 am
a national model but for 2 hours and that's the day i think the brazilian people will support the call because they know we have nothing else to do at this point. brazil's covert daily death rate this week passed 4000 for the 1st time with the death toll now exceeding 340000 the country is the world's 2nd worst hit but despite the horrific surge and a collapsing health system the nation won't be put in lockdown his its president has insisted we got reaction on the streets of. ascii pacha just said that i think part of the blame is ours from people getting relaxed after so long in this situation but i believe the bigger blame is on our president who always makes and past more difficult making it harder to interact with the rest of the world. through that i believe it's the result of people having to relax too much after the improvements people have to know that if it was getting better we should keep doing
4:13 am
what was being done to improve laws because it is a system we brazilians are in a unique situation due to the government we have that doesn't care about the millions of people that are dying every day or even worse i even think the president celebrates the. brazilian authorities have maintained the country will get its quota back to business in a couple of months but the physician we spoke to warns that it's unlikely. the country is not going to be back to normal into a tree words you may dig here for a year or a war just to give them a kind of control let alone to get back to normal life the government didn't work hard and after procure to buy tens of millions of dollars that brazil needs to vaccinated its people so all we have a limited supply and current levels we are vaccinating barely a 1000000 people a day when we should be vaccinating at least 2 to 3000000 people a day so we need to double or triple the number of people vaccinated but the
4:14 am
problem is the supply of vaccines the brazil has been able to acquire if we don't do anything we could be in the middle of a historical tragedy here i mean the problem the largest humanitarian tragedy of the 21st century. texas governor greg abbott towns laid into u.s. president joe biden over a looming my current crisis on the country's southern border and called on the white house to close a migrant facility in san antonio following allegations over child sexual abuse there these problems the reporting product of president biden's open border policy children at this facility of being sick should be assaulted this facility is a health and safety nightmare the governor's claims are based on concerns about the facility received by the texas health and human services commission and department of family and protective services abbots has instructed competent or thirty's to probe the child abuse cases immediately. and it's not only children safety at stake
4:15 am
the biting administration has received another barrel of criticism after 2 men on a u.s. terror watch list were detained on the southern border the border protection agency detailed the of rest in a news release. u.s. border patrol agents assigned to the al central sector and arrested to yemen a man within the last 2 months that's where identified on the terrorism watch list well a press statement was swiftly removed from the department website it's understood that the men were from yemen and they have been apprehended in el centro california the number of people on the f.b.i.'s watch list of arrested trying to enter the u.s. is so far unknown caleb maupin reports among the surge of migrants illegally crossing the u.s. border and being detained we now find out that among those who were detained were 2 yemeni men who were on the terrorism watch list now white house spokesperson jen
4:16 am
psaki says this is not a common occurrence however there is widespread concern about the security of the united states amid the border surge. cartel suman traffickers and the terrorists are all trying to take advantage of biden so open borders president biden strecche list build the security police continue to put americans across the country in danger enough is enough it's time for the biden administration to get serious about stopping the senate now what's even more interesting is the report from the border patrol about the detaining of these 2 individuals has been removed from the internet according to the website and those who manage the border patrol that report somehow violated national security but at this point there are many other concerns and we've seen a 15 year high in migrants crossing the u.s. border this is going on as 171000 people cross the u.s.
4:17 am
border in march we now have the biden ministration considering options among the options they are reportedly considering is perhaps continuing the building of trump's border wall take a listen the president has communicated quite clearly his decision for the emergency to trigger the devotion of department of defense funds to the construction of the google is ended but that leaves room to make decisions as the administration as part of the administration in particular is over the will the new drain of ation particular projects that need to be finished viewers will recall that when donald trump began building the wall the democrats fought against him pretty hard they declared the wall was immoral that it was racist and they shut down the government for $35.00 days to prevent funding from being allocated for this wall let's review what happened is an enron levy it's not who we are as a nation 20 times show called for i will shut down the government if i don't get my
4:18 am
will none of us if you want to know something you've said ok you want to put them i said i'll take i was a prosecutor for many years and including the attorney general california i specialize in transnational criminal or his am. that's a memoir and i'll stop them now at this point amid in upsurge of migrants crossing the us border including potential terrorists to individuals on the f.b.i. terrorism watch list at that point and we now have a situation where democrats are possibly considering measures they once declared when donald trump proposed them and put them forward to be immoral quite an interesting turn of events. you're watching on t.v. international coming up after the break at twice the backlash against the cia bragging about its historical launching of the afghan girl religious we'll bring you this story and mold and about 90 seconds.
4:20 am
a big monopoly. welcome back the world health organization has doubled down on its worries over vaccine passports noting their introduction could sharpen social divides we would not like to see the vaccination passport as a requirement for entry or exit because we're not certain a distaste of the vaccine prevents transmission there are all those other questions apart from the question of discrimination against the people who are not able to have the vaccine for one reason or another one of the worst disputes is in the u.s. the white house has ruled out mandatory vaccine passports along with state governors yet companies and educational institutions are looking to push forward
4:21 am
with the plans colleges of that there require proof of inoculation when students start a new academic year in the autumn we got strongly differing zeros on the covert passports from our panel of guests with one former m.v.p. stating there are a fundamental attack on liberties. this is not just like being called as a person of a state or a country which is what a passport is about what we're looking at here is a wholly different scenario which would apply globally where corporations are able to suggest that you can't fly out of countries get on boats and this would be basically a threat to freedom civil liberties and in some cases the health of individuals as well but if in fact people do comply they're allowed to do certain things and i think people will see that as a privilege not that well listen you know for example without in schools if you don't have certain vaccinations you can't go to school and so be all there was that
4:22 am
we need our children our schools or i guess will sacrifice we get the vaccination and i applaud private organizations for example who say you can't commit here unless you can prove that you can actually do it because. you know we're going to exercise our right to protect ourselves and our patron saint past 1st are a very bad idea for public health for a few different reasons one is that it was sort of a correctional force the younger a very low risk people who get their vaccine before the flu and who are older people saw by doing that it will actually increase the amount of death another reason is that public health one of the principles of public health is trust and to make it a curse of vaccine passport for the good years trust in public health authorities any vaccines or base in perth for his boss an ethical and moral i think that the fears of. loss of personal freedom are bit overblown. you know people
4:23 am
right now are really unfree in the united states of what places you can go and go in certain ways so there's a lot of loss of freedom that we're experiencing right now what we're really trying to do is open up freedom by getting people you know actively consider disease whenever somebody is vaccinated they are they have. protection for the vaccine so there's no reason for them to try to. demand that other people should be have to be vaccinated we have the scientific capability to be able to assess individuals of whether they have a vaccine or not but it goes back to a fundamental principle and that principle is should we allow our government to be able to dictate based on a person's biology whether they will be able to have access to services accessed of freedom of movement not only outside of the country but also within. the cia has boasted of supplying outgoing guerrillas with missile launches to quote
4:24 am
destroy soffit control in the 1980 s. as part of operations like clone one of its longest and most expensive operations ever the stinger missiles supplied by the united states gave afghan grillers generally known as the mujahideen the ability to destroy the dreaded in my 24 d. helicopter gun ships deployed by the soviets to enforce their control over afghanistan however the cia was subsequently mocked over the tweet as online users blasted the supply chain for giving birth to the taliban people those are stressed that the u.s. didn't learned its lesson and made the same mistakes in syria causing a reversible damage to the region the u.s. has now itself been a war in afghanistan for almost 2 decades which has claimed the lives of 58000 afghan personnel more than 3500 coalition troops have been killed during the campaign most of those casualties come from the u.s. tens of thousands of afghan civilians have also become victims. the may the 1st
4:25 am
deadline for biden to complete withdrawal of american troops is approaching presidents barack obama and donald trump criticize the u.s. campaign in the country but both ended their terms in office with thousands of infantry still there some experts now think biden will postpone pulling out the remaining 2500 troops but white house press secretary jen psaki says americans should nevertheless trust biden to fulfill his pledge. well 1st it wasn't a deadline we said. but the president this president has conveyed that it would be difficult operationally to meet the timeline of getting all troops out by may 1st he has also consistently over the course of the last decade spoken out about his concerns about the war so that should hopefully give people confidence about his commitments i don't believe that the u.s. will really be completely honest sons grew very clear from the statements from
