given the limits on the supplies of covax, the infection surge in india, last week, the national primary health care development agency notice to the vaccine was no longer necessary and a second ship is expected in august. the longer there is a wait, that allows more time for concerns and misinformation to be generated. i'm going to ask you to say what you are seeing in terms of demand for vaccine in nigeria and how have health workers and the elderly who were prioritized , how have they predict -- how have they responded? what kinds of communications are you seeing for those groups? charles: one of the things that helped nigeria is we have structures in place including unicef's supportive communication platforms. there were -- [indiscernible] we had thought it was be getting. -- it was beginning. our front-line workers the covid vaccination. in the second phase, we prioritized the elderly. during 18 -- between 18 and 50. and the remainder of the population. we had to identify key communication channels. we had to find two ways to come indicate to them using the communication structure. we had to re

and we do much more than business reporting, we do reporting on civil justice and health care and nationalecurity and it runs the gamut and we have operations around the country. so, and doing a lot of local reporting as well, which is really in a crisis. we appreciate every dollar that comes in. thank you. host: you heard her say this is timely. why? guest: well, we are at a potential inflection point in our nation's long history with taxes. our history oscillates from tax resistance, everybody grows up understanding about the boston tea party, to efforts to have progressive taxes. we had a progressive income tax, very people -- very few people know this, during the civil war and it was disclosed -- and there was a disclosure requirement, so the great barons of the era like vanderbilt reported their income publicly and the new york times published it. we have seen -- we seem to be at an inflection point where politicians are seeking to raise taxes on the wealthy, the biden administration has made a series of proposals that would attempt to raise taxes on the wealthy, one point that we had

so privatize ation of our national health services as well as bid cuts to spending on health care and the privatization about care taken over by private equity. financial corporations often go bankrupt, leaving thousands of people in the beer homelessness really instead of in care. and we have a situation where morbidity and the stress, all insecurity, means that a lot of people are suffering from answers from heart problems from suicidal tendencies. and i think that is, it is quite possible that we will see a surge of excess deaths above what should have been the chase in the period going forward. i mean, the heartlessness shown by far is johnson about his remarks on a t roads and so on. this sort of is just so disgraceful, but it's, it's sad to think, but he's still prime minister, but someone can say that sort of things young that we have a situation where the privatized ation and the financial ation boss. national health system means that a lot of people are not going to be able to get the medical attention. they need the care they need and it's going to be a cascading crisis. i t

democrats will go and say we're going to balance it by, you know, nationalizing health care. medicare for all. none of those are real. we're not telling the truth. so let's actually walk through just a couple of things that are in my draw right now. this is just one portion of the left's bill called h.r. 3. and from a conceptual standpoint it's an honest debate of what are we going to do about prescription drug costs? the methodology, though if you actually read the research in a decade, it's killing people and actually costing more. because we are on the cusp of a time of miracles. and this is really important to get our heads around. you've all heard about this concept of mrna. we talked about it for 20-plus years. years ago i used to come this mic and talk about the bio-foundry, we can take a snippet of your d.n.a., and a snippet of your cancer or disease or virus, and it would take weeks and for the cancer, it was $350,000 just to get you your shot, but it was curing people. we just moved up 10 years in technology. that's one of the amazing things operation warp speed, it

health suffers. it is disingenuous for politicians to care -- to say that they care about our nation's ongoing health crisis and in the same breath limit access to abortion cut your regulation at obstruction. communities that face the most barriers are the same communities unable to access high quality prenatal care. federal legislation is needed to improve health outcomes for people having abortions and those giving birth. it is undeniable we have a two-tiered system of care in the u.s. and it is getting worse. the stakes are as high as they have ever been. we are only beginning to emerge from an ongoing pandemic that has disproportionately harmed communities. we continue to reckon with rachel and dustin -- rachel and -- racial injustice. these laws to criticize abortion are form of reproductive oppression people of color have been subject to for centuries. f we fight to address injustice at all levels we must understand for our communities losing these protections would be devastating. to be clear, it is not enough. but the undermining it without a lot to provide a backstop means the enactment of t

nation. we owe you. thank you. everyone deserves high quality health care. why i was so pleased that last week, secretary mcdonagh announced the department of veteran affairs beginning to process to provide more comprehensive care for our nation's transgender veterans. we're also making equality centerpiece diplomacy around the world. we believe lgbtq+ rights are human rights. in february, i signed a memorandum or -- memorandum saying it's a policy to end discrimination on the basis of sexual or gender identity. pride flags are flying as some of our friends in the obama-biden administration are openly gay. they are flying in more than 130 u.s. embassies around the world.

health care. and so i work in the national security field. i know we have enemies, but i didn't expect that you know, those senior levels of the various medical department that would actually deny health care. so those of us who really were injured. and so that was a moral injury that i think a lot of a suffered martin at the end of the program. we wish the very best and swift recovery. hopefully. thank you to everyone who joined us on youtube. thanks to i guess as well. let me just remind you where they are on the, on the twitter, we have mark. we have dr. maria and zacharias. thanks for watching. cnx i ah use for some mechanical reason that self driving train the apple. but androids today can be really humanoid. robots, like me, will be everywhere. al jazeera documentaries. next lead on the weird and wonderful world of robot that learn, think, feel, and even trust. i feel like i'm alive, but i know i am a machine origins of this nation. coming soon on al jazeera, on the coast, china aging population, the country will become the 1st nation in

national health law known as obamacare. the decision means that affordable health insurance for tens of millions of americans will remain intact. the affordable care act was passed during the obama administration in 2010 to address large gaps and health care coverage for americans. the weird, yeah, this is the moment former us president brock obama announced the passage of the affordable care act today. after all, the votes have been tally. health insurance reform becomes law in the united states of america. and since that time, american republicans have bow to repeal the app, often referred to as obamacare. this is the 3rd major attack on the health care law taken to the supreme court. and it ended the way the 1st 2 did with the majority of justices rejecting the case made for scrapping it there were some hope among the opponents of obama care that this time would be different. mainly because the court is more conservative now that there are 3 appointees of president donald trump on it, and i mean millions continue to suffer from obamacare. walk with trauma, support, 18 republican ledger states sued over the law. the conservatives have always sai

care. many patients report waiting more than four weeks for a follow-up appointment. according to a december 2020 national unit of health care workers survey mental health service, 88% of tare piss report that individuals is unavailable for patients who need it. 51% of therapists reported their patients have to wait 1 to 4 weeks and they had no follow-up appointments on their schedules for an average of 22 business days. the impacts of this are more aamid the global pandemic. have more than tripled over the last year. delays and accessing appropriate treatment can lead to longer recovery times, worsening outcomes, increased morbidity and more expensive and intensive care. sb221 will close the regulatory loophole by requiring nonphysician mental health care and substance use disorder providers to schedule follow-up appointments within 10 business days of the prior appointment while preserving the ability of the treating physician to set dltive time frames for follow up. most importantly, sb21 has to wait until it's too late to get the help they need. i want to thank senator weaner for introducing this legislation and i w

it has the 2nd lowest spend on health care amongst g 20 nations. and this is how the data over the last 2 decades snacks up. now, this is india and it's 2 neighbors packets on a bangladesh. it clearly shows that it's out spending its neighbors as a percentage of gdp. but if you bring in china another nation with a 1000000000 plus population and vastly big economy, you can see that india is well below china's spending. now, bringing the world and both countries spending less than half of the world average . now india was in the throes of a prolong, slow down even before the pandemic struck more than 230000000 people sell it to poverty last year. and the poorest 20 percent of household saw their entire income vanish in april and may as business ground to a halt. but despite that prime minister in ramadi managed to address election rallies and march 150000000 voters to the polls. those rallies, including religious gatherings of thought have contributed to a record number of corona, virus, deaths. much of modi's failure in economics from scrapping wide

health care coverage. i think it's good for the nation. health care overall. the court did the right thing for the american people to make sure that they have affordable health care. >> let's turn to president biden's meeting with president putin. as the chairperson of the house foreign affairs committee, the expectations going in, were they met? >> i think that president biden did an excellent job. look, he laid the foundation first, because one of things that i think mr. putin wanted to accomplish was -- this is his goal and his quest, is to divide and conquer. what president biden did, he made sure before the summit he met with folks in the g7, he met with folks in the eu, he met with folks at nato. that gives a message to mr. putin right off that he is not going to be able to divide us. then the nefarious acts that mr. putin and russia tried to endeavor on, to let him know that there will be consequences. those consequences will be united. it won't be just the united states alone as what took place in the prior >> was divided gave a cl
