ah, i bought a whistleblower report in the british medical journal claims. there was serious flaws in the testing of pfizer cove at vaccine. while he was, the authorities have been reluctant to investigate them. he was democrats, suffer a surprising defeat in a pivotal governance election. and virginia widely considered a major test for biden's presidency and a legal victory for big pharma and potentially a disaster for millions, addicted to opioids, and that families a california called rules. the drug companies did not contribute to the states epidemic of opioid abuse. we speak to one of the victims tier. we are years later knowing what we know. and we're still unable to provide these families with, with some kind of justice. it's a travesty. ah,
2:01 pm
hello, good, happy with it's wednesday, been 9 here in moscow. my name is colleen bray over the world news from alta international. big story we're across for you. this out of the british medical journal has published a whistleblower report, claiming that was serious flaws in phases code, vaccine trials. last year. the research behind the allegations says that she was fired the same day. she raised her concerns and the youth authorities are refusing to investigate his ortiz, he goes down of so all these revelations they have been published at the british medical journal, a very respected science paper. not some tabloid, that has a history or well is known for publishing. some unverified information and so that article it details the allegations of a whistle blow of a woman who used to be part used to be with a contractor with a company called ventana. so what does this vin tarver your firm has anything to do
2:02 pm
with the pfizer and it's vaccine you might ask? so it all goes back to the 3rd phase of clinical trials on the vaccine. some might argue that it's the most important phase. so pfizer to do the these trials, it hired a number of firms and a number of contractors. and so these contractor companies, they were responsible for the, for the trials in total fighters vaccine was tested on more than $40000.00 subjects . in fact, the numbers closer to 44000 and this vin tarver firm was responsible to conducting trials on about a 1000 of people. and so this whistleblower, she claims that she has observed some negligence. some are well, some violations during those trials. for example, according to the allegations, participants were placed in a hallway after that receiving the job. so instead of getting proper medical attention, they were somewhere in the hallway on top of that,
2:03 pm
she's accused batavia of a lack of timely follow up on patients who showed some severe symptoms which could be interpreted as well. side effects of the vaccine that they're using. the word or the british medical journal is using the word adverse events in relation to the symptoms to these will potential side effects. also protocol deviations were not being reported according to the allegations. the vaccines were apparently not stored at proper temperatures, and this is crucial for 5 for the 5 the vaccine. because, well, it has to be stored a very particular temperature, a very low temperature. this is something that makes the transportation of this vaccine, particularly challenging. also are the whistleblower reported mislabeled laboratory specimens and apparently vent avia targeted those members of staff who will try to blow the whistle and try to bring to light these are, these discrepancies are these instances and the. 2 whistleblower saying that she
2:04 pm
was victim over such targeting that she was fired after she tried to bring to light these allegations. so when, according to her, the company or when these allegations 1st fell on deaf ears or within the company, she assembled them. she put them together and sent them all to the da, the u. s. agency, a governmental body responsible for giving the approval for the emergency use of vaccine. and this is the response she got herbalists. within hours, jackson received an e mail from the if da, thanking her for her concerns, and notifying her that the f. d. a could not comment on any investigation that might result. a few days later, jackson received a call from an f da inspector to discuss her report, but was told that no further information could be provided. she heard nothing further in relation to her report. well, given what we've just heard, it could have been world seen as an optimistic sign for this whistle blower unit company. the or rather the of
2:05 pm
d a getting back to her the very same day. and obviously she comes across as a very concerned person. and on top of that, all of this happened in september last year, which is important because that's before 5, the phases vaccine got the approval of the of da so well. so the only logical assumption that would be is that the of da will look into these claims, address them and well make a decision whether or not they were important our bud in december, same year, the price of acting god. oh god, the well it, it was recognized, it was recommended for emergency use by the f d 8. and the of the a did not address any of the allegations have listened to the are to, apart from the article in the british medical journal. in phases briefing documents submitted to an f. d, a advisory committee meeting held on the 10th of december 2020, to discuss fries as application for emergency youth authorization of its cove at night in vaccine. the company made no mention of problems at the vent,
2:06 pm
obvious site. the next day the fda issued the authorization of the vaccine. while i guess the only the only logical outtake from the story would be listened to your doctor before. well, you know, putting anything in your body, we've contacted pfizer batavia and also the us food and drug administration for comments on these claims. we'll let you know their response. when we hear back. however, the f d a has already publicly backed by saying that it trusted cova data despite the whistleblowers allegations. a micro biologist, dr. simon clark, is concerned that the claims could damage public confidence in vaccines. the biggest problem for potential problem with, with this article, which medical journal would affects or could affect public confidence in the vaccines when really should a mistake to happen. but it's important to, to, to acknowledge that when you know mistakes is happened, you recall to new, acknowledge it and deal with it. this could happen with any that said, no,
2:07 pm
just actually people should remember that many, many millions of people around the world to succeed. and it's effective alex names us democrats have suffered a pivotal defeat in the state of virginia losing a governor's election at the 1st time in 2 terms. it's widely seen as a blow to joe biden out of damning judgments on his presidency. caleb morgan explains. democrats are quite shaken up by the earthquake results of the race for governor in the state of virginia glen yanking the republican candidate one. now this is a state where joe biden defeated donald trump and a solid 10 points back in 2020. but now that state seems to be shifting into the republican camp. land junkin was victorious, the democrat was defeated, quite a shake up in the state of virginia. here's some of what we heard. that is a 5 alarm fire. somebody and i opened mccollugh scans was air
2:08 pm
was mccaul, of put it this way to me about an hour ago is a blood beth? this is your life vote right now. where are there counties where it, because is under performing, nor them by more than oh, my god. now some democrats think that this could be related to the falling poll numbers of joe biden. joe biden is not doing well. a number of americans disapprove of him. his approval rating, is it around 42 percent? and many look at the situation in virginia as one opportunity where voters stepped up and tried to register their discontent with how biden has led the country. clearly the presidents drop in favorability made it very difficult for the democratic nominee to stay above water. now $7.10 americans say that they don't like the direction in which biden is leading the united states and a poll conducted among democrats and independents who are democrat leaning. this poll came out and said that 40 percent of them think that their own party might do better to not nominate joe biden for reelection in 2024. but instead to pick
2:09 pm
another candidate. now this defeat or terry mcauliffe, a mainstream democrat located in the state of virginia, long time figure in virginia, politics has been quite a blow. you'll recall that in the lead up to the vote that happened tuesday. both the president and vice president traveled to virginia and emphasized how important this election was. but hi, virginia will in large part determine what happens in 2020 to 2024. and so it seems like this was an opportunity for voters to register their discontent. there's a lot of rising frustration with the biden administration over the unpopular cobit vaccine mandates, over stagnation and inflation in the economy. and over the issue of the afghan pull out, which was very chaotic and in the lead up to the vote. national democratic party figures like president joe biden and vice president common air has went to virginia
2:10 pm
to emphasize the importance of this election. they presented voters in virginia with their agenda, and it appears a lot of them did not like what they heard. kind of like nancy richard black is a former republican in virginia state senate member good tabby, whether it's on r t black. if we're having this conversation in january post by no gratian and i said to you that by november, the republicans will have taken the virginia seat for the gubernatorial election. what would you have said? i'd been quite surprised and i think everyone would have the democrats had such a preponderance of strength in the state. this is a, this is a democrat laning state and the fact that in a single year we went from a 10 point advantage for biden, to a to point loss. for my call up, you know, you're looking at 12 point shift in one state,
2:11 pm
that's blue leading. and if you translate that to other states across the nation, it, it really forecasts a wipe out for democrat congressmen running in next year's election. why is this such a test of biden's presidency? this is just one election. why is it seen as such a litmus test for him? well, you know, virginia has a special place in politics because virginia and new jersey are the only significant states that have off off year elections. so we're really the only news in town. we sort of are a litmus tests for the nation of what, what you can expect. ironic way is people always look at virginia to see what is likely to happen in the future. but in new jersey,
2:12 pm
which people don't even pay attention to. the republican is neck and neck up there, and that's such a heavily blue area that nobody even normally. thanks about it. so it just shows a tremendous weakness in the democratic side. what has happened here? loudon county is where i live and where i've represented. and the, there has been an uprising of the people against policies, and this was not something dictated by the young and campaign or by the republican party. but it just individual apparent much of it is focused on the issue of schools. some of it is on back seen mandates, some of those on the shut down of businesses. but key to it to the most burning issue is critical race theory, which is sort of
2:13 pm
a domestic communist philosophy being taught within the schools. and it's its purpose is to create hatred and division between the races. and so for example, there was a woman who testified that her 6 year old daughter was being taught in school. that she was evil because she was white. and here you have the teacher teaching her classmates that this is somebody that you should hate and perhaps boy, because of their race. and it's just, it's stunning you. some of the things that the democrats have done have their breathtaking you just, you couldn't imagine at richard. would you say that these are things that have appeared over night sto because it seems that these are the, these have just a ruptured in 10 months. that 10 percentage point lead has been reversed and just 10 months, some of the issues you've raised that pre date, mr. biden,
2:14 pm
coming to office. yes, and what happened is, a lot of these things are, have been infiltrated into public schools across the nation. parents typically don't really know what's happening. the school system is sort of a closed closed entity. but because of co bed, the children have been staying at home and they've been taking their lessons by computer. and so parents had been exposed to this and they said, wow, this is incredible. we can't believe you know they're, they're passing these transgendered laws that require teachers to address children. if, if the child asked for it that the teacher is required to refer to a boy as a girl or a girl as a wife, it shifts control of the class into the hands of audi children
2:15 pm
in terms of the campaigning. what did the democrats get wrong? here because their supporters would say that if they can just pin the republican candidate with a brand of toxic trump, then that should swing it for them this time round. so what went wrong in their strategy? they took, they'd sort of doubled down on everything that was bad merit girl. and the attorney general work together with the national school boards association, a very radical organization. and they sent a letter and they said, look, all of these parents complaining at school board meetings, or domestic terrorist. and so merrick girl and sent the f, b i. and in our biggest, most metropolitan county in the state of fairfax county, they actually are flying helicopters overhead to intimidate parents who are simply going to testify it public hearings that went over very badly.
2:16 pm
it shocked people that they would do this. you had the governor saying that parents had no business interfere and in their children's education and trying to stop the children from receiving pornographic literature and schools. so they, they just, instead of they were tone deaf. they were so insistent that they had on fettered power. and they could just do whatever they wanted and it didn't work to. people just rose up and, and booted them out of office. well happening on a national level politically resonate down to the local vote in virginia. i'm thinking about jo biden's slumping popularity ratings, or even mr. trump. back in the republican candidate, 10 months after he left office. what kind of sway does that have? i think it had significant sway our people. people are very little confidence in
2:17 pm
joe biden. even, even the democrats, the polls are showing the democrats think that they would be better off without him, but comma le harris, they're sort of in a, in a box because common harris has absolutely no popularity among the people. and so if they get rid of biden, they're stuck with comma le harris. so they're really kind of in a pinch, they box themselves in very bad way. is this a one off? do you think or do you see this kind of result being repeated in the mid terms and in future actions and all the way up to 2024? i think this is going to be copied. the tremendous success in virginia really came about because of opposition to the critical race theory, the, the homosexual infiltration into the schools, the pornographic literature in the schools. that is the number one issue, but also there are collateral issues like there is tremendous resistance to vaccine
2:18 pm
mandates. and i think these issues that were framed in virginia will go on and they'll become very popular issues across the nation next year. i think they're going to be winning issues and i think the democrats are going to suffer a real disaster at the polls next year. ok. meantime that a lot of numbers to crunch for the strategists. richard black, i'm really appreciate your time this evening. thank you. thank you. meanwhile, the survey shows that americans trust and media outlets has steadily declined since joe biden took office in january. almost a quarter of those survey said they had no trust in traditional or establishment news outlets at all when it comes to accurate and fair reports. with another 30 percent saying that trust was at a very low level since the start of the biden presidency. the level of media trust has suffered a 16 percent slide. journalist and author chris hedges told us that the issues being filled by polarization and american society. people do trust their favored
2:19 pm
partisan media outlet. the problem is they don't trust any other outlet. the fact is, the country now is completely divided into antagonistic or opposing demographics and media. a commercial model of all, all media outlets at this point is to cater to that particular demographic. now that's how they make their money. they slice that demographic, they feed that demographic. what it wants to hear, whether it's true or not. so you're feeding that demographic. what it wants to hear, while at the same time, demonizing, the other demographic and all media, major media outlets are guilty of this. you've seen a huge drop in terms of viewership at outlets like cnn or m. s m, b c. because they demonized trump, and they could day after day terrify their viewers with whatever the latest trump bo paul was or, and that the whole election of biden was really anybody but trump,
2:20 pm
the media landscape itself as undergoing a kind of see change in all of this pulling reflects those divisions and the stoking of the antagonism between the demographics that are catered to by the major media outlets. residents in the u. s. city of minneapolis have voted against a bid to get rid of the local police and replace them with supposedly more benign public safety officials. the proposal came off to the murder of george floyd last year and cited nationwide protests and demands to defund the police. ah ah
2:21 pm
recent polls show that people still have an unfavorable view of the police in the city. however, many more people would not like the number of officers to be reduced to position that's especially strong in the black community. the refusal her against her police against local police might be linked to the city serge in violent crime, amid officer staff shortages. there have already been far more homicide in 10 months this year than in the whole of 2019 of the head of an hyphenated america. a conservative nonprofit group says society must change, not the police, the whole idea of the front police is absolutely ridiculous. and you know, it's ridiculous because the left overall started getting a lot of pushback on it. and now they're kind of backing away from even going so far as to say that, oh, i never said the from the police,
2:22 pm
even though they're on the camera on record. there's plenty of evidence with them saying the from the police. once again speaking from from a black perspective, right? unfortunately, there's too much crime in the communities that fortunately black people live in and there's a heavy reliance. the innocent people live in those communities have a heavy reliance on the police. now please go too far sometimes, of course, that's one of the problems with having a bigger state. as the state grows, the individual shrinks individual liberties get trumps to pop the funding. the police is not the answer. getting rid of the local police department is not the answer. the only way that actually helps is if you have a more, more, more role in just society. in a victory for drug companies, a california judge has ruled that full manufacturers can't be held responsible for the state opioid crisis. saying there's no evidence the rise and prescriptions was down to misleading marketing. and it's still the ruling could set
2:23 pm
a precedent for similar cases. in other states, we call the phone subject bradshaw, who became addicted to the pills he was prescribed. it sets a very dangerous precedent and, and more importantly it's, it's sad. this is, this is becoming a in america, very common knowledge that companies like purdue pharma, sat around a board room table and made a decision to target a blue collar areas in america. areas like southern ohio, eastern kentucky, west virginia, because they knew that their new powerful prescription opioid it would flourish. there was the 1st time a drug companies, one in over 3000 in all suits that have been filed. the opioid addiction crisis is claimed, half a 1000000 lives in the u. s. in 20 years, the previous administration declared a nation wide emergency after a 6 fold increase in fatal overdoses. and 2020 alone. more than $9000000.00 people were victims of opioid misuse, including teenagers and adults,
2:24 pm
the majority of which were prescribed medicine, mostly pain relievers. jake bradshaw says the court ruling leaves the vulnerable with no justice. i can remember being 1718 years old and having a very minor injury and you know, being prescribed 40 milligrams of oxy cotton for injuries like that there's and i don't think there is a government or a doctor or any medical professional who would call that reasonable we've got millions of people whose lives have been affected by this. here we are years later knowing what we know. and we're still unable in courts to provide these families with, with some kind of justice for loved ones that they've lost or loved ones that are still struggling. it's a, it's, it's, it's a travesty. i'm finally hit u. s. t the same as succession would pick up 7 amiable last year has been renewed for a 4th season. widely considered one of the leading dramas today. it profiles a family media dentistry, led by logan roy,
