the who's ah, there will be for the devastation and destruction. a major cleanup operation is underway, along with intent, search and rescue efforts following torrential rain and deadly flooding in germany and belgium. more than 100 people have been killed. many more still over landsey sicily, arrangement of italy and poverty crisis authorities. war in the changing seasons will be even more challenging for local community. the c u. s. accuses russia and china running smear campaigns. again, western vaccines that says washington issues more warnings about the side effects of its own jobs. we hear from someone who suffered severe convulsions after being

an okay. like those full body convulsions, tremors, brain fog has said with me, i still have not recovered under return to rationing people in south africa refers to queue for essential hundreds of shops have been looted. to write this, went on the rampage during the money to buy food for children. now i don't want to be in the way it was so digging like what are you going to do now? because you do that again, they're going to do again. they're going to break it again. ah, hi there. thanks for joining is you watching auntie international at least a 150 people have lost their lives in flash flooding to this devastated parts of western europe. and todd towns and villages have been left in ruins. in tens,

rescue efforts continue with hundreds more people still unaccounted for. german chancellor, anglo america listen to visit the disaster zone on sunday. as he speak to all of us and this report devastation thus was being left in the wake of waters. the toll through towns like this one in western germany, leader of the state of nor throwing west fall and number one contender to be next chancellor of germany and lash it is called the flood a historic disaster. countries going through the flooding, catastrophe on the historic scale, our mass, how's the waters have started to receive by into something close to their normal levels. you can see the trail of destruction that's being left by the flood that ripped through towns like this one. these old buildings that were in the past didn't stand much of a chance. the river flows just over my left ton shoulder here, where you can see it only does it destroyed everything is caught there. but on

a molten house, just behind me, torn half of the side of the building off in some places in the flooded region, the clean up has been able to start. i was here. so i just finished cleaning up stock was about to sit down to enjoy a cup of coffee. when it all started, suddenly the water came flooding him from above and from behind from all sides, i only had time to move away my car. and it was all covered and water already. it was quite bad. my son called me last week and he said the bass into it's flooded. we thought, oh okay, there goes to basement. and then a day later, the whole flat was water. we had to sit upstairs in the bedroom and here we are now for a big clean up and all to common fight in towns in this area of the belongings of people out on the side of the street. sultan from the fluid water, the tall and through the houses. but another common sight, things like this cause tossed around as if they'd been toys. the force in which the

water came through these areas, really evident in just how much damage you was able to cause. and how easily it was able to pick up tons of metal and slow them one side of the flood waters, cruelly indiscriminate. while some places have been utterly destroyed. others have been incredibly lucky, just meters away from those places that have been ruined. some houses left pretty much on touch, but they are the ones in the minority. others not so lucky heart mclean can begs home was right in the path of the swollen river. the water came to this level level one and a half meters. the water then spilled over with all of the strength of what would have been in the river as well, and headed over towards that house over there, does food. i've not experience that in 30 years living here. it was unbelievable. the water seems to gather itself up in the mountains and then with one big wave

come down and hit us hill. the street right in front of us turned into white water rapids. just like a river. there were people in the basement were trying to get out, but from inside you could not open the door because of the water pushing against it . this is terrible. we had very good information, but people did not listen. they ignored it and they did not listen to it. we were told that we were going to have pretty bad weather. and from year to year it gets worse. you just have to accept it and respected. and this was not done. it was dismissed is not a big deal. something that we could handle, you know, we did not have it on the control. man is so small against nature. here we see it. so many people you don't expect people to die in a flood. in germany. you expect that may be in poor countries, but you don't expect to hear. it's unbelievable because i've heard a strange noise. so no was opening the front door and then the water was coming from me and i just pressed hard,

pushed hard to close the door and then needed to help my son. and together we could close the door. there's so many tragedies, so many lives which are gone now and the searching for people and the 6 sludge shows you exactly where the water is reached. if we come up through this courtyard here, you can see some gas tanks over my right shoulder, 2000 and leases full of gas there. thankfully the seals on those tanks didn't for a cause. they were picked up and jostled around by the flood waters that came through here, put into perspective a little bit of just how ferocious those waters were over there over my left shoulder, where those washing machines are. they used to be a caravan that caravan is now here inside of the carriage, you can see through the other side of the ridge that the river flows exactly on the other side of the property that its hole in the wood off the side of the carriage

and told the concrete as well as its moved its way through here, a force of nature that left a trail of destruction. while the human cost is still not being calculate because of this natural disaster, when it eventually get thrown, to calculating the financial cost of what's happened to throw it into the hundreds of millions of euro. if not more, what we are seeing at the moment, those towns like this one completely evacuated because the biggest fear of the authorities is that more rain could see those water levels rise again. already recon building swells. they could then be the next ones that end up collapsing, and this is certainly a devastating natural disaster that struck west in germany. it's one that isn't over yet. peter, all of a r, t in west, in germany. the economic impact of cur, the vortices left italy facing its highest poverty levels for 12 years. the numbers are still continuing to grow with masses of people out of work and businesses

struggling just to survive. we heard from locals and one of the hardest hit regions . and so they gave the until a few years ago, i was an entrepreneur who gave work to 40 families. today. i'm 60 years old and i feel humiliated. i feel like analogy to us for arms at this age charity to try to move forward to survive the month to go up. the situation is dramatic. there are people who previously had shops and restaurants and now have to close everything they can no longer reopen because they have no more money. many people have turned to charities and their new poor, queuing up trust for food. what a bad situation you're paying. so the question of this is total destruction. it's a situation that is truly frightening. the number of poor people is increased. they line up to ask for food. it is terrifying. they also go to churches to us for money and alimony. unfortunately, this is the current situation, this is the new reality. so when you know those who had little money already have

nothing left and i get who, who are those who did not have a job and already financially struggling, now cannot even pay their rent. i know people from this neighborhood who are well off and no back farms have very bad situation. latest figures show more than 5000000 people in italy now live in what's called absolute poverty is defined. this household income being below a level which makes it impossible for the personal family to meet basic needs of life. so just food and shelter. the catholic re bags of almost 10 percent of the entire sicilian population, while another significant number of families live in relative poverty, local authority, say it is a desperate situation. we've discovered the new poverty, which is terrible. there are too many new poor people who didn't used to be poor, having serious psychological consequences. i want to make an appeal, i will keep making the original leadership and the regional administration say yes sometimes because they keep saying no. i was told by some organizations that they

are affected because people who were donating a contribution on to last year, a poor now and seeking a contribution. therefore, there are no doubt of the situation is really complicated. a week economy like sicily was damaged by cobit. we heard from one charity organization in palermo that supports people in need. there's an increase of food requests. indeed many families asking foot all the families asking for shelter because they not have a job anymore. people have started sending emails to requesting aid. for example, one incident, the particular struck me was about one couple. they asked for sultan christmas, eep. we imagined them like the now the, with the family coming and asking for help. in these situations, we hosted these people in a, b, and b to give them a certain dignity. another incident concerned the child to cold, asking for sultan because his father lost his job in his home. consequently,

there are many such incidents were involved in any 80 russia and shine. there are undermining trust in western vaccines and a bid to promote their own jobs. the claim being made by the white house. it says misinformation is being used to exaggerate the risk of side effects from us in european made shots that how base in reality, all those allegations look more into it's a closer look. there is a huge anti vax movement in the united states. many americans are simply refusing to get vaccinated for coven 19, so we figured it wouldn't be too long before the white house started pointing, as usual, suspects russia and china has promoted their own vaccines through messaging that undermines western origin vaccine does help development programs. so, you know, that is more than just competition about vaccines. the risk and impact there is that this type of information magnifies the risk of potential side effects

associated with western vaccines. this is what the, what the information some of this misinformation is doing. it seems like what the white house spokesperson is saying is that reporting on the findings of u. s. federal agencies is somehow just information because it was the us food and drug administration that came forward and recently warned about the johnson and johnson, single dose, cobra, 1900 vaccine. and the fact that it could actually cause gillian bar syndrome, which is an auto immune disorder that attacks the nerves and could result in paralysis. now these cases have been rare, but this is according to the food and drug administration. the u. s. federal government agency, now it was officials in denmark who recently suspended the use of the johnson and johnson and astro venica vaccines, siding possible harmful effects. but apparently that's just information even though it came from the danish ministry of health i. it's also worth noting that on this

accusation of competition, the main reason that people traveled to russia to get the vaccine was simply because they didn't want to wait for months to be vaccinated. here's what they said in the 30 people my age of can. busy lead to be vaccinated after the summer. so very far i decided to make initially 9 most. now when it comes to damaging information about the vaccine, the white house certainly made quite a few gaff themselves. take a listen. we are quite focused on communicating directly with those people, hence our special guest today about why it's important to get vaccinated. why these vaccines are safe? why they can still kill you even if you are under the age of 27. we need to be clear and direct about our messaging. i guess that's what the buying and ministration consider is to be direct messaging. multiple cases of severe side effects having reported from coven vaccines. one example is angela. the self case. first came to global attention. she received the 5 job in january. you may find the

upcoming image is distressing. angeles son shad videos on facebook showing his mother shaking violently in hospital post psych sedation. he said she suffered severe convulsions. soon after getting the shot in louisiana. speaking to r t. angela said she had no prob, significant health issues and claims that the u. s. government is turning a blind eye into fever like her. how do i know that i would have lost the use of my legs and what has been tara law? i never would have taken it. there was never the no inform content. what so ever about the side effects that i asked? right. there is definitely not enough of awareness about hey, this could happen. see those full body convulsions. tremors, brain fog has saved with me. i'm 6 and a half months out. now. i still have not recovered. if i do not take medication

daily, my symptoms come right back. we are completely brushed aside. and i think that's only because our government is trying to get to heard immunity. and they're not going to address us or knowledge until they reach their goal. a vaccination professor of infectious diseases, william schaffner, believes that people must be made aware of all potential side effects, so that they can make balance decisions. when you educate the population, you have to tell them all about the benefits of the vaccines. and you must be very clear about the side effects also. so they're not surprised and disappointed. every vaccine in the vaccine that we use has side effects. fortunately, most of the side effects are very brief. they're very mild. they're our occasional

rare, serious side effects. we must know about them, and we must be transparent about them so that the people come forward for receiving the vaccines can make a clear choice, has been done. the pink demick has the case track and tre, south, telling people to isolate if they've been near a t o v carrier. this lead to hundreds of thousands of healthy people having to miss work and stay home, and spend calls for its sensitivity to be adjusted. the health department is ruling out any changes the health care sector itself became a victim of the free shortage of doctors and nurses leading to a peroration being canceled. i've been calls from the industry to allow a special exemption for medics, but the department of health insists of the app is doing its job and reducing the corona virus spread. questions of those been res, if the app is actually even necessary? now, given the widespread roll out of vaccines, have

a number of faster options and works including medical professionals, which is had a large impact on service slip or makes no distinction between and a work environment contacts wearing perfect equipment or outside of that environment. and one is unable to care where the contact came from, is extremely easy to accidentally forget to turn off the notifications and tracking on the whilst you are. so there are a number of pieces and the best in the affected, and therefore had to miss work as a result. in many professionals, understandably remain in the app, so they don't accidentally have a pink because many been very clear that they don't wish physicians to do, or anyone to delete the app, but always still actually independent mach tracking and tracing up with part of installation. they just don't, we didn't have any protection against this infection. but now having got the vaccination, having protected the own elderly and the vulnerable, having disconnected the wave of infection from the weight of death. thanks. and we

really have to work with l. o, we still in pandemic load effectively. i really think we've already got to the point where we're not really injecting those measure the track trace isolate social distance thing people are at the point where they've virtually back to normal. now we've coven infection. re soaring in the country, the app is working overtime. on the last week, more than half a 1000000 people were pinged until to isolate, and the figures only likely to grow with more than 26000000 people in all having downloaded the app. some industries reporting up to 20 percent of this stuff i've been forced to stay at home. we get reaction to the situation from people in london . police for people. lately as a moment. one's right to to be straight up in things, stop isolate. and i can see the frustrations that people ha, so i can understand why some of deleted a particular effect work. well,

it is very disruptive at the moment. i'm very frustrating. it's, it's, it's, it's necessary at the moment until a better hold times if it's bad. i don't have the person the i've never had it. and i just think this is the point this me, i mean if, if you come into contact with someone, you might have it. i mean, then you might notice 30, you have any symptoms. so down it up, but then it was, it's giving wrong information to me. throughout the whole process, it has already been improved much. he was doing all the international use after the break. the so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have is crazy. plantation, let it be an arms race is on often very dramatic development. only personally,

i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, a very critical time. time to sit down and talk with me ah, i will the the welcome back. huge

cues have full downside stools in south africa. the panic buying comes after a week of some of the worst violet scene in the country for decades. left hundreds of shops ransacked and looted tensions exploded over the jailing of former presidents, jacob summa, on challenges of corruption. locals have been speaking of a desperate situation. there is not, i fear stock, it's finished. i don't know what's going through with my tad. i've got this my life for me. even in my life, i can buy this more thing like this because of this thing, i don't know what's going to do for the next 2 months. we're just trying to see what we can get to what's needed at home. what we have, i mean, shut off, just follow cupboards just to keep us going. but it's been a frustrating week due to the planning buying the is a shortage of bread ingredients. people are waiting in the cues for a long while,

and it's actually sad to see that some bread trucks have been taken down and been thrown into the river. there are a lot of people out there, old young, sickly, that battling to get just one loaf of bread. hundreds of shops have been destroyed by leads us. some locals have been forced to arm themselves to defend their businesses saying the police have been overrun with incident. others have lost literally everything. he's foolishly reports on how i family, from one of the johannesburg poorest areas has been coca. i'm carrying alexander township, which has seen some of the worst violence over the past few days. for shop, belonging to 15 brothers, from outside, the country were destroyed. downstage, nothing remains to the shop. and upstairs, where the brother lived and store they products, everything had been burned. brothers lucky to escape with their lives,

but white now the brothers on feeding lucky. 25 years of work and savings gone up in flames. doing this on the electronic grocery when you come, when you come to break everything that took everything down to money to buy food for children? no, no, no money to pay the rent where it was so digging like what are we going to do now? because we're going to, going to do again, they're going to break it again. so where are we going to make a living room and it's total and what's happening there? and, or in a closing my child, 7 o'clock, when i go to my room and i cooking cooking community, i didn't finish 9 a club when it's coming here. bitten my shop, and begging to get my, my done 500000 scope. now brittany ditton,

my flipping room, and i'm tending a hiding my center one corner people in the building, my room damage. i think i die. some of the brothers were sleeping here with the stock. the looters grabbed everything in sight and as they lift, set the room allies, television sets, electronics, cell phones, clothing, money, and passports. everything has gone. among the torch remains, there's nothing with salvaging and praying for god. god and i have a man that includes only 5, did the reading not having played nothing but for the day. what fun it before the benefits office. i'm not really anything just nice to set my looking for deal if i did some why am i opposed to the bottom?

came to south africa from bangladesh and looking for better life. he lost reverberates half way around the world. given me my family's from this part of my family's kind hungry when i'm making money. i eating my family eating now. now making money. parties loading my family hungry as many south africans. the wyatt lost it only a few days, but shops are empty off to being looted. others are boarded up and delivery trucks are refusing to risk, bringing in more supplies. so on top of everything, if more south africans are now going hungry policy or r t, alexandra they have been union as long as legal action against member states, hungary and poland of audit calls discrimination facing the l g b t. community. europe will never allow parks of both sides to be stigmatized. we start legal action against hunger and poland for violations upon

the mental rights of l. g. b t i q people several polish regions of adopted laws that declare themselves free of l g b t. ideology separately, also the constitutional court is now said it rejects decisions by the use court of justice and brussels has similar troubles with hungry as well. and you hung gary law that bands, depictions of homosexuality and educational materials and tv shows us for the underwrite things. now the government is also will to disclaim as we put on books featuring gay content, stating that contained behavior, inconsistent with traditional gender roles. and it seems that the local authorities perceived that laws differently to the european union. the youth in parliament and the european commission wanted to let the l g, b, t, q activists, and organizations in schools and kindergarten. hungary does not want that debate is about who decides which way we should be the children, according to the european funding treaties. this question, evidently,

falls under the competence of the hungarian was. it is a national competence v you law has primacy over national law and all decisions by the european court of justice, including orders for entering measures or binding on member states authorities and national court cheer. political analysts run the road 1st, police or the unions to whiteness, focus. the question for me also as an observer is, why does the you react on such as a ration of government in only specific metric field? it. we look at other metric fields where governments in the european union have violated law and you have not seen that trick. for example, when the showing an area of the out of borders were not protected in 2015. no,

really. if you read off that you do have the theme government in depth to themselves, more than that, you regulations allowed no reaction in black the we have over $200000.00 non task force for russian descendants who do not speak well enough. the national language. whereas the you who called for by a to the roof of minorities, etc. appreciate your company here on our team to join me for updates. if you can in half an hour. me join me every thursday on the alex summon, show, and i'll be speaking to guess on the world, the politics sport. business. i'm show business. i'll see you then

me. we live in a now where the supply side of the equation is broken, knower entering into the supply shocks where there could be micro chips for example, or basic commodities or sharply. there's a food insecurity now by hundreds of millions of people around the world just emerging over the past 12 months because of it's runaway inflation because of the runaway money printing as we've been bank for a few years. so now people are really coming to grips with the fact that yeah, as the reports been right about it, what the the

this is been bustling business show you can't afford to miss. i'm rachel blevins and i'm bridge bore and watching thing coming up. rising in play to remains in focus and now us treasury secretary janet and yellow and is saying it may not be a temporary one. was one believe. but does this mean it's time to shift the monetary policy we'll discuss. then twitter says it is seen an increase in government demands to take down posts from journalists. we'll go over what it means for the social media giant. and later, as the entertainment industry is fighting to get back on his feet, we'll take a look at where the public is investing and how streaming services are giving movie theaters a run for their money. we have a talk show solace. divert in we started the program with the latest comments from treasury secretary janet gallon while continuing.
