percent of the population by the end of the summer is still in place but the problem is that they've exene it all out remains very slow and this is of course bad news for all human states and specifically for those like the czech republic who are facing a brutal new wave of infections and whose hospital systems are on the brink of collapsing and earlier we spoke with management team or he leaves the conservatives in the european parliament i just want to listen to what he said and get your reaction. mr cynical is really a big problem for us in the corporation and in these negative relationships is negative experiences we had in the past we have to say that the export ban must be on the table so we want to have open borders but if the rest of the world is not doing so because europeans shouldn't be naive and the 2nd point is that europe is spending a lot of money for research and use country companies who are not cooperating with us must also see consider that they're not anymore part of this big research union is putting the blame on the vaccine makers tell us alexandra i mean how we like

realistically high on how easy it is to cure all that vaccine out in the country yesterday because exene is very cost effective it's very easy to transport and so that that lack of if a casy against mild and moderate disease if offset by potential if it's in severe disease is balanced by that important need to be able to achieve coverage and that coverage is very important for achieving what we call her protection so with estrogenic and with all that scene's and this constant evaluation of all of the benefits and all of the disadvantages of a vaccine in a particular situation now this is a very it is already making its way around the world how how why should other countries be about this variant that's important to understand to 2 things in this area that was that identified 1st in south africa is not going to stay in south africa viruses do not respect borders and in fact it has already been detected in several other countries as your beers are probably aware but i think the 2nd thing to understand is that it's not just the south african variants that is worrying us a similar variant ha
