this climate modelling is providing clarity, and look at this from a doctor from the university of oxfordhe forest of the temperatures to climate change — the final part of the equation is us and why we are the cause of this. humanity is waging war on nature. this is suicidal. nature always strikes back and it is already doing so with growing force and fury. he is right. nature is providing a number of warnings. just look at the last few weeks. europe has recorded the second hottestjune, moscow equalled its highestjune temperature and in mexico, they recorded their highest ever temperature injune. or you can look at new zealand, it is winter there and it too has recorded its hottestjune. the list goes on and while i'm going through all of this, you're thinking, we know this, we know climate change is an issue, we know we need to act and we are acting. but there are two important things to note here, the first is that these heatwaves in north america have scientists worried. most climate modelling anticipates gradual warming, but as we have seen, there is nothing gradual about this. this c

that's according to a new study led by the university of oxford. while it revealed a strong immune response anywhere from $3.00 to $10.00 weeks between shots that identified an 8 tweet gap between those is as a sweet spot. the trade off in that longer interval as a drop in antibody levels between the 1st and 2nd doses. and importantly, the study noted was the decline in antibodies needed to fight off the delta variant . but regardless of the dosing shed, your research is said to fire a shot generate robust immune responses. let's talk now to susanna dunnahugh. she's a professor of infectious diseases at the university of oxford and also joint chief investigator in the study. the study is known as pitch. she joins us from oxford, santa donna, he welcome to the news out. so does this mean that one has less protection? if you had dose one of pfizer on day one and those 228 days later. right. hello. and we'll 1st hold to say, this is an immunology study and we're waiting for further studies and effectiveness . and what we found was, on average, if you

this is, according to a study led by the university of oxford. while it revealed a strong immune response anywhere from 3 to 10 weeks between shots, it identified an 8 week gap between doses as the sweet spot tradeoff. and that longer interval as a drop in antibody levels between the doses. and importantly, the study noted there was a decline in antibodies needed to fight off the delta variance. but regardless of the dosing schedule, research is said to find the shots generate robust immune responses. some thoughts now from susanna deny she has a professor of infectious diseases at the university of oxford, the joint chief investigator in that study, which is known as pitch. she says that people who have received their 25 doses at shorter intervals, should still be confident that they are protected. first of all, i'd like to say that today's is a bit vaccine and very good to inducing mean responses. and if you're happy about, you know, a short dosing interval, don't worry it's, it's a great back thing. we just found that you, kate strategy, which

although that's down from saturday's peak of nearly 52000 cases, this chart from the university of oxford, our world and data shows the numbers going up dramatically over the past month. researchers believe the real figures could be much higher because of low testing rates. the highly infectious delta variant is driving the surge. indonesia has the highest coban, 1900 fatality rate, in se asia communities are relying on volunteers to bury relatives who died at home . makes the graveyards are working round the clock. hospitals are turning away patients because they don't have beds or oxygen. some are even telling people to bring their own oxygen supplies. and every are almost like if i came here from sins on a hospital. i feel 10 oxygen cylinder as last night and have to buy 10 more cylinders . only 6 percent of indonesians population is fully vaccinated against coven, 1900. the country's relying on china's saddleback job, which appears to be less effective. 114 doctors have died. this month, despite 95 percent of health workers being inoculated, the u. s. is donating 4500000 with darren o

professor myles allen is head of the climate dynamics group at the university of oxford and has servedual practical success for you coming out of that key summit? well, for me, it's really very simple. one thing which people have to understand about this problem as it is fixable. we don't need to keep using the atmosphere as a giant waste dump. you know, 200 years ago, if you told somebody living in london that within 50 years, we would stop dumping sewage in the river, they would've told you, that's impossible. where else to put a? we sorted that out, we can sort this out too. and we can sort it out within a generation. we can stop climate change that out, we can sort this out too. and we can sort it out within a generation. we can stop climate change within a generation if we in glasgow but should be is how we list the industry that is selling the products that's causing the problem to help solve ads. at the problem to help solve ads. at the moment, we see the fossil fuel industry as just sitting in the corner, selling its goods, part of the problem. it has to be made to be part of t

pupils may be just as effective as class bubbles to control transmission of covid in schools — according to a study by oxford universityy away from school last week for covid—related reasons. 0ur health correspondent, naomi grimley has more. the isolating of bubbles in schools has caused no end of frustration in this pandemic. last thursday, for example, more than a million state school pupils in england did not attend class for covid—19 related reasons. of those, more than 900,000 were self isolating, due to a possible contact with a case. but a new study by oxford university suggests that if daily lateral flow testing is done in school over seven days, it's just as good at preventing transmission as isolating pupils at home. what we see here is that for people in schools and colleges, the chance of getting infected with covid—19 when there has been a case in the school or college is low, less than 2%, one in 50. i am really confident that what this study shows us daily testing of contacts is a safe thing to do in schools and colleges. the researchers believe daily contact testing like this can help reduce school abse

now we have new studies coming out of oxford university showing that people who have long hall covid, a significant percentage of gray brain matter degeneration. it's linked to memory and performance and speech. all of these young people who think they're impervious, even if they don't die because the death numbers are low among young people, they're going to have a lot of debilitating symptoms that could go on for a long time, an unknown period of time. this is the message we have to get across. we're seeing better vaccination rates among older americans. it's all the young people who have gotten this disinformation that they don't need to get vaccinated and remind them what long-haul covid can do to their ability to function at a high level for months or years to come. >> quality of life could be severely impacted. >> on friday you told my colleague boosters will be needed eventually, but we don't need it urgently. what would tell you now is the time? what is that threshold or trigger point? >> the reason is because as good a job as we're doing in the u.s. and some parts of the coun

of that highly infectious delta variance. let's start with the big picture on argentina and chops from our world and day to oxford university. the numbers of course, from john hopkins university. this is the death, right daily death rights. and, you know, just recently, i'll circle it here at this point. this is june, the 11th, and we were looking at 600000. i'm sorry, 600 deaths a day. the good news is that at the moment, we're now down to here about 400. in fact, less than $400.00 debts a day. so there is some good news, even though we're past 100000, the rate is coming down. similarly, this chart which looks at the number of new daily cases. and this point here, this peak that is late may, early, june, not long ago, upwards of 30000 new cases again. now we're looking at this sort of number 15 and a half 1000 a day. so again, best still high numbers, but very much coming down. let's start with this report, theresa both important fires. sandra was a pit ada is trying to recover from the loss of her parents. they both died of call with 19 order. what up for us it is very hard and i've been left alone. my siblings live in diff

we are bringing the young africans from the university of cambridge, from harvard, from oxford. do no longer need to send the samples outside africa for sequencing to provide the genomic art to elucidate the genetic map of viruses. it is happening on the continent, and years ago, it wasn't possible. all right. but there's a lot of suspicion when it comes to scientific collaboration between africans and people of african descent. and it's worth remembering the situation of henrietta lacks, the african—american woman who had very unique cancer cells. she died in 1951 at the age of 31 from a cancerous tumour. and her cells, known as the hela cells, have been used in every major medical breakthrough, but her family never benefited in any sort of way from the use of her cells. so there's a lot of suspicion to overcome, isn't there? that's exactly what we're talking about, and that's why... you saw my interviews, i mean, in the washington post and the new york times, what we're talking about equity. we want to collaborate. we want to be in partnership with the rest of the world. we ar

trish greenhalgh is a professor of primary care health sciences at the university of oxford.with that date, wouldn't you? i think most scientists would disagree that now is the right time. i think the government itself, boris johnson himself, only a couple of weeks ago had a slogan data not dates and now he's gone right back on that and he's saying scientists agree on this day, how can they agree on this day, how can they agree on this day, how can they agree on the date? we don't know what's going to be happening on the 19th ofjuly but he is firmly tied into that. i think probably for political reasons he is under a lot of political pressure from his own backbenchers in particular to take away the mask mandate, the distancing, so that people can feel free, actually we are going to be a lot less free from the 19th ofjuly, as he set when you introduce this item. it's going to look very different on the 19th ofjuly and an awful lot of people will feel less safe and they are going to feel less able to do basic things like going to the shops, getting on a bus, that kind of thing.

look at this from dr friederike otto from the university of oxford. n mexicali. or you could look at new zealand. it's winter there. it too has recorded its hottestjune. the list goes on. and while i'm going through all of this, perhaps you're thinking, well, we know this. we know climate change is an issue, we know we need to act. we are acting. but there are two important things to note here. the first is that these heat waves in north america have scientists worried. bear in mind most climate modelling anticipates gradual warming. but as we've seen, there's nothing gradual about this. as the climatologist professor sir brian hoskins puts it... in other words, what is starting to happen with climate change may be worse than has been projected. and if that's the first point, the second is this — that deciding to act isn't the same as taking the right action. let me show you what i mean. this year has been full of bold commitments. scientists tell us that this is the decisive decade, this is the decade we must make decisions that will avoid the worst c

the piece they omit is between 10 and 30% of the individuals get long haul covid with disabling neurologic effects. now we have seen from oxford university a degeneration of gray matter, we are going to wind up disabling a generation of young americans because of that disinformation. >> and how about we can choose to have americans not get sick at all. you can choose to get vaccinated. peter, one more question. this one blew my mind. the cdc officially saying schools should prioritize in person learning this fall. yeah, of course. we absolutely should and need to be back in school in person. there should be no scenario where we're not. >> well, certainly in massachusetts and vermont, yeah, we can do it safely because all of the adults and adolescents are vaccinated. the hard thing to figure out is how we do this say in louisiana or mississippi where fewer than 20% of adolescents are vaccinated, low percentage of young adults. there's going to be potentially a lot of transmission from the delta variant. we still have a few more weeks before the school year starts. i am quite concerned. >> peter, hold on. people in those states are choosin

of those, more than 930,000 were self isolating, due to a possible contact with a covid case. but a new study by oxford universityternative to isolating contacts. researchers followed pupils and staff in more than 200 schools. in half, the close contacts of positive cases had to isolate for ten days. in the other half, however, close contacts of positive cases were offered supervised daily tests at school over seven days and allowed to carry on as normal if they were negative. i think the results of this study are really reassuring for parents, as well as for students and for teachers. what we see here is that for people in schools and colleges, the chance of getting infected with covid—19, when there has been a case in school or college is low, it's less than 2%, one in 50. what we also see is dct is able to pick up those people who are most infectious, even when they don't have symptoms. i am really confident that what this study shows us is daily testing of contacts is a safe thing to do in schools and colleges. the researchers said their findings would make encouraging reading for parents and teachers, especi

companies that made millions if not billions out of transatlantic slave trade, like lloyds of london, the universities, oxfordreat museums, like thousands of houses and stately homes in london in bristol, in liverpool that denote their wealth and their heritage from the transatlantic slave trade. and we're seeing people picketing now wealthy who are the distant relatives of slavers, of planters. this is not going away. and as a result of the pressure, we're seeing museums being named and also business centers like the jeffrey museum, the -- all the slave traders who made huge amounts of money off the backs of enslaved africans years ago left major endowments but now people are saying we've seen the receipts. we think you need to pay. if the british government doesn't want to, we can target you companies and landowners individually. we're not going to let them get away with that. it's not going away. >> i do just want to read a statement we did get from the uk. we asked the british government about jamaica's pending request. a spokesman for the foreign commonwealth and development office said there is no dispu

what about the fact the viral evolution expert at oxford university, arizona category saying we have 92 percent of the bodies in this country. we now have the possibility of immune escape in terms of mutation at its highest level in britain here. obviously, scientists around the world criticizing the british government in a way, sage by inference, is now the time that we are most going to be able to expect a new british variant because of the high levels of explanation here in britain, they don't quite work that way. if you've got, if you've got very high levels of explanation in most of your population, you stop the virus and evolving in these areas because it's got less opportunity. the worst case scenario when you get partial vaccination in your community, your mailbox nation. and that's why we do need to push forward and get as much the populations actually said, i'm not sure that i quite agree with his argument and many others that don't agree with his argument. the, the concern for me is here is that the pediatric population. we probably only got about 25 percent of the population of childre

pupils may be just as effective as class bubbles to control transmission of covid in schools — according to a study by oxford universityd were forced to stay away from school last week for covid—related reasons. our health correspondent, naomi grimley has more. the isolating of bubbles in schools has caused no end of frustration in this pandemic. last thursday, for example, more than a million state school pupils in england did not attend class for covid—19 related reasons. of those, more than 900,000 were self isolating, due to a possible contact with a case. but a new study by oxford university suggests that if daily lateral flow testing is done in school over seven days, it's just as good at preventing transmission as isolating pupils at home. what we see here is that for people in schools and colleges, the chance of getting infected with covid—19 when there has been a case in the school or college is low — it's less than 2%, one in 50. i am really confident that what this study shows us is that daily testing of contacts is a safe thing to do in schools and colleges. the researchers believe daily contact testing lik

oxford university. thank you for being with us. how much of a financial head are they facing?tual costs that tokyo is facing, this could be very well in the range of $30 billion. it is quite a large billion. it is quite a large bill to pay for the olympics. could it have been avoided? maybe by not hosting the games, like as the cities that dropped out for the bidding — or the otherfive out for the bidding — or the other five candidates cities that didn't win in 2013 — they certainly avoided that massive head. how much of an issue isn't for the olympics committee that the cost of the games has risen so much over the past decades? and how easy is it for cities to recuperate the monies that they spend? we see it is really hard for the cities to recoup the money that they spend, and c and economic case and hosting. most host cities lose money over these sort of investments, and that really puts the ioc and that really puts the ioc and a hard position. as we can see, the next olympics will be in paris or la because nobody wanted it. just two days ago, brisbane won the hosting of th
