a bad lines in r t, germany becomes the latest country decline down on the young, vaccinated as europe is shaken by a 4th wave of covey cases, over half a century. that's high long america's drugs watchdog once in order to release all documents relating to its approval of pfizer code with faxing. it follows a request by a group of medics under the freedom of information act and an american tv news network. m s m b c is banned from a u. s. court room after one of its journalist visits in court, stalking a bus from the jurors in the high profile case of kyle britain. ah,
12:01 am
hi, good morning. you were watching either international this friday, just gone 8 o'clock here in moscow. now, amid the latest wave of code, cases hitting europe, her number of countries have placed more strict sions on those who are on vaccinated. germany is the latest after seeing a record. 65000 new cases in the last 24 hours. and angler merkel is calling for action loggins from others. the situation is very serious, new judging by the current dynamic, we're answering a very, very difficult situation. especially for all the people who work in hospitals and especially those in intensive care units. but we need to take action quickly. okay, well it's cross live night to our correspondent pace role of who's actually in australia, where simon restrictions have been imposed and pay to good morning to you, i suppose with germany ny following suit is becoming
12:02 am
a popular policy to target the unvaccinated. well, it's been required in germany due to the she a number of cases that had being registered in that country just at the beginning of this month. the idea of that be more than $50000.00 cases in a 24 hour period in germany seemed almost on thinkable. these latest numbers, 65371. the highest that germany has seen since the pandemic started. and it has somewhat helped measures to be pushed through the bone, the stag on thursday. the pile parliamentarians voted for that we'll place small restrictions on those that have not been vaccinated, basically boring them from large public events. things like sports stadiums, cinemas, theaters, art galleries. the likes, if you have not, had not vaccination job. now, we also seen in the trunk of new measures that health care workers will have to
12:03 am
receive a mandatory coven vaccination, as well as lowe's, working in care homes. oh people's care homes had been particularly hard hit in germany during this 4th wave of cove at 19. the measures overall, particularly popular with the german public around 60 percent at the beginning of the week were saying that they were in favor of taking stronger action. however, not everybody's convinced this is the way forward title looked on, i think the low down is another unnecessary measure. nearly 70000000 people are vaccinated, which means 3 quarters of the population could no longer get seriously ill. the main problem of the hospitals, even the shortage of beds, but the shortage of stuff. stuff calling sick and there aren't enough nurses to work in intensive care units. there were empty promises from the government that nursing stuff will get the pay rise. i see unit is a underpaid, it is, it's a struggle for those working to cope. and patients are dying in large numbers in
12:04 am
germany isn't the only country, as we said, putting in place restrictions on speaking to you from vienna. austria was the 1st country to put into play, say, a so called ad lockdown of the on vaccinated. it came into force on monday, essentially. meaning if you didn't have a coven faxing or you couldn't prove that, you recovered from the, the illness. you basically were only allowed to leave your home a few going to buy food if you were going to do some exercise in your local area or if you're going for medical treatment, it affected around 3000000 people. what we have seen though is more or more countries follow austria is lead. in fact, we've talked about germany as well as australia. looking at slovakia, the czech republic on greece all having either put in place restrictions against the unvaccinated or are planning to do so in the very near future. in fact here in austria, getting ready to go even further. and what we're seeing is in the west of the
12:05 am
country, in austria and in dissolved burg region, a full lockdown of everybody is going to come into force for monday. they're expecting not to stay in place for a few weeks. the idea being that everything can open up again in time for christmas, as long as case numbers do come down. that's a big if right now, when you look at the way things are going in austria, when you speak to people out and about on the streets though they're all mixed feelings about the activities, the, the measures that are being taken by the government isa, to say this is not a good idea. why do we need to lockdown both vaccinated in the unvaccinated can in fact are the people, right? i'm just saying this is my opinion. you were in favor, but oh, so everyone should gets their opinion then sir. oh so the freedom he again he thought both knew i don't go to work. i don't need a vaccination. i don't want to get vaccinated every 6 months. as
12:06 am
a survivor as well. it is so bad that we now have a new lock down. you don't have to have it, it's unnecessary. everyone has been vaccinated anyway. caught on that as well. those measures that have been put in place and measures that may well come into effect here in austria as well, causing search upset. we're expecting a large demonstration to take place here in vienna on saturday, which will be course keeping an eye on us. all events unfold here on our t shoe. okay. all right, well thanks fed up data page. that was our c, peter, all of our reporting now from viet. now, europeans, not the only one drilling overcoat restrictions is. an outcry in the united states has hindered j. biden's mandates against the unvaccinated. they're the initial idea concerned businesses with over $100.00 employees with a possible fine of more than a $100000.00 if workers went on vaccinated, but emer states have launched
12:07 am
a legal battle against the measures. we discussed the issue with a panel of guests think there's a couple of really important things here. number one, the fact that you're going to have a huge backlash across europe, right? because people are already frustrated with this idea of green passes vaccine passports. but there's a bigger issue here, and i think the bigger issue is the fact that yes, cases are rising right now. but there is no evidence so far that the cases are rising because of people who are on vaccinate. remember, we know the data shows a vaccines, don't prevent the spread of the back of the virus, nor do they prevent the contraction of the virus. how many of these new cases are actually the result of people who are vaccinated as opposed to unvaccinated? and if that is the case, that it makes no sense to create 2 classes of people and locked down the unvaccinated and let the vaccinated continue to affect each other well in speaking of this, you classes of people, i mean, and it looks like that's kind of what it's coming to culturally you have to vaccinated who are allowed to now do whatever they want, and then you had the unvaccinated, we're facing increasing restrictions. what are your long term impacts that
12:08 am
especially in a region where we've seen protest over it over the last year, it was the mostly the government's telling people to lockdown and giving them instructions in the last 6 months in america, they've been using the businesses to say we're going to mandate something. it's caused that different kinda attention from say, the real impacts. lots of people including vaccinated people are saying we don't trust what's coming from the government by demonstration, backed off on their december 8th mandate, their be they realize the public's against them. the real question is gonna be, is what happens in the local communities in california, where they do have those rules in florida where they don't, you know, we're going to see this kind of tension rising. but it's not only caveat that's triggering, you locked and new delhi is being put under restrictions to gc heavy appellation. i will discuss further than you normal. i'm being told to stay in our homes a bit later in the progress of half a century. that's how long americans drugs watch doke once, in order to release old redacted documents. some fines is, can you get vaccine?
12:09 am
and they do relate to the jobs approval by the f da and have been requested by group of medics united point to the fact that it took much less time to review the documents for reproving the vaccine. this $100.00 a day period is the same amount of time. it took the f d a to review the responsive documents for the far more intricate task of licensing finances cove. in 1900 vaccine. it is difficult to imagine a greater need for transparency than immediate disclosure of the documents relied upon by the f d. a to license a product that is now being mandated over 100000000 americans. we have a situation here where, because there has been a freedom of information act request filed for the information about how the vaccines were approved. we have the us food and drug administration stepping forward and proposing to release $500.00 pages per month of the remaining
12:10 am
$329000.00 pages. that would take roughly 55 years 55 years for this information to be made available. now the organization that filed the, the request public health and medical professionals for transparency says that if that pace of 500 pages per month proceeds that makes the freedom of information, act almost meaningless. and it discredits the food and drug administration's promise to be transparent. the f d, a knew the intense public interest in that data and information. it should have been preparing to release the civil tenuously with the licensure. instead, it has done the opposite. this case is not about the vaccine mandate, where the files that can be held liable. this is a fire case where the only relevant issue at this stage in the litigation is setting a reasonable processing shadow. now it's important to note that one of the companies that was involved in the trial of the pfizer vaccine has recently faced a little bit of a scandal brought to light by
12:11 am
a whistleblower. this article was published in the medical british medical journal . now the report from last month in which we had a former clinical trial auditor for the pfizer coded vaccine raising deep concerns about patient safety and about data integrity. during the process, however, a spokesperson for of in tavia stepped up and discredit some of the other allegations that were published in the british medical journal. and this concern seems to have been discredited. so at the moment we have the lawsuit that was filed and we have these medical professionals saying they want this information. we expect us to be in court for some time, but at the moment the f. d, a is offering to release 500 pages a month of the remaining 329000 pages. and that would take 55 years over half a century. more pain reporting than i mean. well, the caveat pandemic is said to have played a role in the surging number of drug overdose death in the united states with
12:12 am
addicts unable to get the treatment they need due to the lock downs, white highest express concern about what it described as america's drug at the desk our nation has reached a tragic milestone. more than 100000 lives were lost to the overdose epidemic from april of last year to april of this year. as we continue to make strides to the feet, the covert 19 pandemic, we cannot overlook this epidemic of loss which has touched families and communities across the country. will overdose death have risen dramatically in the past 2 years and surpass fatalities from car crashes guns and even this season, the flu. and you day to show that many of the deaths involved illegal use of the pain relieving a p o defend to know it's not responsible for more deaths than harry when was causing just 5 years ago. when america has been dealing with a prolonged opioid epidemic for several decades with more than 800000 people dying from drug overdoses since 991. according to the u. s. government statistics,
12:13 am
leading pain management expert, john john brozowski told us that the stress of the k we'd look dines, might have caused an increase in drug use. people be that human contacts, so people, boss or jobs are unemployed or under employed, financial stress. they can co mingle with other individuals because isolation, the unfortunate turn to self medication, whether it's with alcohol, this and we've seen that grow up dramatically as well as drugs because they, they need some type of release or some way to modify the pain that they're physically in an emotionally, in and now we see this tremendous over this. we do need to talk about other therapy that is really important. not everything is an uphill and unfortunately america's the pill taking society. just take a pill, you're gonna get better. it's still more complex than that, but that's why you need to get to the right physician specialists, anesthesiologist, specialist, and pain medicine. maybe just going to rehab doctor to get the right physician to
12:14 am
get the right diagnosis to be on the medication. it might be a narcotic, or maybe don't need as much, or maybe need a procedure. but there are a lot of things that we can do to limit the exposure to narcotic therapy. i certainly agree with that. our strengths, pretrial, of giving the songs that the higher the newspaper, the grey zone has branded cambers policy towards the weekly expand. and the straightly and citizen at the paper says it exclusively obtained documents from the san jose legal authority in australia. proving that the state turned a blind dye to his treatment by british authorities. now, according to the great thing, the document show that a strange refuse to acknowledge sonjee is poor health in the bel marsh prison. something widely reported back in 2019. when a son was sent there, the documents also alleged that a straightly allied saying signs refused to get consular assistance offered by camera. the following years of diplomatic talks between destroyer and other western states which included sanchez,
12:15 am
faith were heavily redacted. before being handed over to the newspapers source, when i asked for strenuous insisting that i would the 2 years, it's offered country resistance multiple times for juvenile songs. but all the authors have gone and, and said cambra has conveyed a tech spec. taishan that his sonjee is entitled to due process while this and seeing itself on the case saying strongly is not a party to the case and will continue to respect the ongoing legal process. but we spoke to the gray saying to the grades and articles author kit, karen burge, he says that a stray leah should have done more for the whistle blower on british soil. ever written about julian's abuse in the hands of 5 eyes authorities. i felt as if i'm writing my own a bitch, re, if not deaf words. julian, this angel would lease by any stretch of the imagination, but nonetheless, his tortures are very thought. warning to any generalised activity, challenges american, imperial narratives. you know, this should shock an outrage and disgust anyone possessed even near the vaguest
12:16 am
shreds of humanity on the new k u. s. and strangely in your authorities and the countries respect your political classes, have been almost entirely side on the scandal. is an object disgrace me mala, nearly puppies report by u. k. inspectors has raised concern over the increased violence in belmont prison, where sonco is being held for over 2 years. suspect to say that see many mates that do you feel unsafe and staff is not to and staff not paying enough attention to those at risk of suicide despite growing levels of self harm june. it's behind the grades that an investigation told us. he shocked why water sons is having to go through it's well known that bell marsh's the stream, the unsafe environment for people who are there. and likewise, we also know well that julian is an extremely high suicide risk investigator found, the staff had not paid sufficient attention to growing levels of self harm. that
12:17 am
was very little oversight. ok. taking a prison is at risk of suicide. it does reinforce what we already know, but then equally does you think office and really, really quite extraordinary stotts. we speak to the opposite, the well, in conditions in which you're getting the sands. i mean, a publisher of information who is, can be no crime is exposed to on a daily basis so he can be left to suffer and die in a wealthy and legal purgatory. you know, as long as he stays on the 24 hour lockdown po, march, london, is merely respecting washington's legal rights to expedite him. and if he doesn't, he is, and one way or another that happened on the case watch both sides can shift culpability on the other and carry on like nothing happened and it is completely shocking in agree jesus. now the u. s. t v channel m s m b. c has been barred from the divisive trial of kyle written house at south for freelance journalist representing the channel allegedly told police that he'd been instructed to follow the bus. carrying jurors spokesperson denied,
12:18 am
though that the reporter was trying to contact all photograph the jurors. the judge overseeing the decision to panama, m. b. c. from the court, as it does come one day are 3, spoke out against media coverage of the trial at his john hoodie. reports now from outside the court in kenosha, pointing to the canal, police, and also the judge overseeing this case. bruce schrader, a, a possibly a freelance producer with m s. n. b c was pulled over in the vicinity of the jury van after it left. the court house here last night after day 2 of the deliberations ended, the jury generally goes to an undisclosed location, a hotel, you know, other location for the night. and his person was pulled over suspected of following the jury van and even possibly taking pictures. and when i taught, when confronted by police told police that they were an m s. b c, producer under instructions from new york to follow this jury van now. and he said his distancing itself at least a statement saying it was
12:19 am
a freelancer and was never, you know, given an assignment to do that. but bottom line here is that the judge is taking it very seriously and has bad now. and m s m b c, from further covering in the court the, the ongoing proceedings here is what the judge said. listen, please, when they stopped him because he was following at a distance of about a black and went through a red light, pull him over and inquired of them what was going on in the key that information and stated that he had been instructed by ms. dia, in new york to follow the jury bus. so whether or not this guy was dead was following the jury van taking pictures remains to be seen. again, this is all kind of under the investigation under review. but if he was, i'll tell you this, that is not, that's a big no, no, as media, there are rules and regulations. we have to follow covering trials and cases in here in the united states. i'm sure overseas as well. but you know,
12:20 am
here in the united states you never take pictures of the jury that's, that's rule number one and it's for the jury safety and also to protect the integrity of the trial. so if at the end of nbc freelance producer producer or whatever was following the jury, that that is, that's a really bad move and it looks all it makes all of us look frankly. so whether that affects the overall proceedings results in a miss trial, probably not. again, it doesn't look like any pictures were posted online for what out of the jury, but it's a serious matter. it's being taken seriously. obviously, as you heard the judge say that said we're in day 3 of the deliberations in the car, written house homicide trial. he's facing fi charges, most serious charge, homicide murder, in other states that would basically, if he didn't convicted you would spend the rest of his life and present to the jury after a very important drone video, which is at the center of the defense teams. motion for a mistrial defense saying that they did not receive the same type of high
12:21 am
resolution video that the prosecution had. it's unlikely the judge will declare mis trial based upon that. but it's the 2nd motion for mistrial. the defense team has filed in the last week in regards to the case, a case that has really polarized many americans, those who support right now say he was a hero, defending the property of businesses and homeowners during the riots here and protest and ocean was hot and back in august 2008. and then those you say now he acted recklessly. he was a vigilante. you should never been here when a gun. he was already adding to a volatile situation that ultimately turned deadly with him. shooting and killing 2 people badly wounding a 3rd. that was gas prices continue to soar in the united states president joe biden has called to investigate if possible illegal conduct in oil and gas markets is actually to blame of each. but the oil industry in turn, does argue that the spike in prices is partly due to miss handling by the white
12:22 am
hanks administration. now it does come after the u. s. held an oil lease auction generating more than $190000000.00 the highest in the past 2 years. the event was held just after biden pledge to cut emissions and limit fossil fuels during the un climate. so i mentioned scotland. meanwhile, a top industry association in the u. s. puts the blame for rising prices directly on the biden administration. this is a distraction from the fundamental market share that is taking place and the ill advised government decision that exacerbate in this challenging situation. will economics professor jack ross moves to tell us that the u. s. government won't focus on spending more on green energy any time c? well, i certainly not a favorable to green energy because what it needs is that focuses or is increasingly, i'm still on fossil fuels. a green energy is a for the future, it appears it's going to take several years for any of the spending. and of course,
12:23 am
we don't know how much the u. s. will spend, because most of it is in the legislation. call the reconciliation bill that doesn't look like it's going to pass. we've got price gouging, going on everywhere in the u. s. economy right now. as companies attempt by raising prices to recruit the losses from 2020 revenue during the worst impact of the shutdowns they're trying to make up the ground. and they're raising their prices everywhere. cloak libraries were just exported anyway, so it probably wouldn't work. he's got to take much stronger action, but you know, he's not the kind of president that box the big corporations or take strong action . he's always looking for a compromise somewhere. and no one he dinners looking for a compromise. the situation is going to get much worse. he deli, his considering any locked an but not because if cove it, the city say,
12:24 am
is so polluted at the moment and toxic that the indian authorities there want to take radical action. the 1st of its kind in the country and, and now awaiting court approval. when air pollution related diseases are side to be the cause of death of more than a 1000000 indians. each year, when he deli, called the world's most politic capital, made the crisis. a number of steps have already been taken in the city with coal burning plants and construction sites, place, and school children and workers told to stay at home is new delhi pears follow up there. and then my colleague, dan hawkins discussed the nature with panels. guess in the short term? no, i mean doesn't this come down to human rights and people to hiding what risks they want to take and how they want to live their lives? i mean, people are formed, for example, that there is a high weight of small pollution that can stay at home or where mosques or shoes safety motors. but surely, you know, putting these,
12:25 am
these math measures in place for businesses, for schools, for construction sides. is this too much of a what some people call money sake? i think if we had a government messaging, whether it's kind of a climate change or anything else, we'd be in addition to the emergency. when, when you, when you're talking about things, you have to take measures and then you don't need locked out. let's not forget lockdown or failure policy. last ditch attempts. when governments have no solution extremely popular. and i don't want to do well, when you've got an emergency situation where there's a massive peach in toxic pollution like italy half a moment at the local government have to take or isn't action to resist the sources of pollution. also can still use public transport. they can walk, they can still cycle, but actually what they're actually talking about in terms of locked down, it's not locking down people, it's locking down vehicles. if you're walking out for environmental reasons,
12:26 am
it's very device rule because it will cause a huge amount of disruption or immediate. it's a lower plan to deal with this. what is a compromise that can be reached to protecting people's health and respecting people of human rights and desire to live freely normally will compromise is true or she will be one of the big problems. reiko with the government u. k. is actually refugees that are the issues, the alternatives, what if anything is shot down. this isn't just the, the master level. it's at the local level and perceived that the government starts around some free speech and stop giving. basically the guns are that the, the chain week and have a very, very, and decide what is the best will action, but try a locked out of whack, locked down is supposed to be used as a last resort. when all the other folks failed,
12:27 am
it might be potentially effective short term, but it shouldn't be used as a medium to long term solution. what we really need is a solution to solution. in general, our don't emergency measure is very, very forward because they disrupt the population and the economy say march. so it's better to take the long term plan once it won't. each tray of each sissy twins on his way. europe's energy crisis shows no sign of letting up gas prices have bounced back to the high, seen and tell uber and off 5 times higher than they were just a year ago. the increase did come to rice after germany suspended certificate ation of the new stream to gas pipeline. when the country tended you regulate, it doesn't says that the pipeline operator has to be registered as
12:28 am
a german entity. while the new string to company is based in switzerland, we discussed the situation class ernst, a member of the german parliament. he says though it's the public who suffered the most does exhibit the only file it's in to the of the which this is unfortunate because the german as well as european customers, would eventually pay for such delays into is necessary indeed that the pipeline opening is expedited as soon as possible for the gas to stop flowing and fill out the storage facilities office, i've asked the federal government if the current gas price increase has something to do with russia not fulfilling its contractual obligations. i have perceived confirmation. the russia has fulfilled all its contracts, and there is no information proving otherwise. this notion ra, the shows that here we have politically biased people who blame brush for anything that goes wrong. they, again, we do have other pipelines that operationalized, we still have north stream one and several other pipelines that allow us to obtain russian gas. however, because the netherlands,
12:29 am
no way of planning to cope gas production, i see that nodes trained to will be vital to increase the gas supply, bringing i can only bone not to further politicize. the issue of europe's energy supply, gemini alone, has made plenty of mistakes. and it will be very wrong to drive to the extreme. it is not that russia does not want to supply. rather it's a problem with those countries of transit that can abuse these circumstances. and so i would like to bold not to mix politics and not to take advantage of this situation around by the roost, as it may once again, eventually lead to a discussion about the fight of this pipeline was configure, which is coming at 5 30 in the morning here, moscow that brings you up tonight and i we're back again at the top here. mm. ah ah ah
