of fire where the fire is it is it is it is inhumane that the world and world leaders wouldn't be jumping to attention to do everything they can in this moment to ensure that we have vaccines to everybody who needs them as quickly as possible and as equitable amount in a manner as possible president mine last week supported the idea of temporarily opening up the patents would that help with that get more vaccines to more people. yeah 1st. my heart goes out to people in india and lots of different parts of the world that are really suffering at the moment and we do absolutely as has been said need to worry about equity as the guiding principle by which we think about allocating distributing and administering vaccines around the world. we need to think about this from a different time horizons in the short term what we need to do today is make sure that the doses that are coming off the production lines are distributed in a much more equitable manner you can be that they almost all go to high income countries and we have to wait for some of them to be donated in a charity model to get to lo

so we have world war ii or world war. i looming. and the secretary of navy guy named josephus daniels was so concerned about being able to man the force because we were sending so many troops overseas. the fleet was growing. so they knew that they had to find another source of manpower. they didn't want to go to civil service because it took too long and so he turned to his staff and said so can can we can women serve? as an aside we understand his wife encouraged him to do that. but at any rate, he was really ahead of his time. and initially they looked out the legislation that brought people into the navy and it did specify mail. but the people but the people they could bring into the reserve naval reserve. it just said citizens. so he quickly jumped on that and brought women into the navy in 1917 was the first a young woman. she was a clerk named loretta perfectus walsh and pennsylvania became raised her right hand took her oath and became the very first woman ever in history to enlist in the military. the marine corps didn't bri

i agree with you wondering why the world is not doing this equitably. the reality is the developed world will vaccinate its population we can do this construct -- strategic vaccination of the developing world -- that is my best guess at what leaders can practically do. the mechanism we are suggesting is one that is mandated by the g7 and g20 and with the who. that is the body, the world health organization would be seen as the most predicable -- credible with a group of experts to have you allocate those vaccines. amb. green: if i can jump in, something that is important for american audiences, we have been thinking in terms of vaccine doses and that is all we think about. it's almost like you are reading the wall street ticker and seeing things up and what we haven't been doing enough of is thinking of that framework and understanding that it's not simply producing, we need to boost production not only in 2021 but going forward into the future. it's making sure those doses get into the arms of key populations. it's offering a blueprint for building adm

world war ii flowed almost directly from world war i. the soviet union emerged from the ashes of world war i and led 30 years later to the cold war between the united states and the soviet union. the maps of eastern europe, of the middle east, of africa were redrawn after world war i. and those new boards gave rise to new or reawakened ethnic and religious tensions in those areas that we are dealing with today in iraq, in syria, in israel, in the balkans. you can't understand the history of the world without understanding how they were affected by world war i. these panels give us the opportunity to talk about some of those things, and give the visitor a basic education in world war i. a number of panels have a qr code on them. you can hold your phone up to the qr codes and pull up an app that will give you a virtual experience of the memorial, of images, text, video, audio. a lot of other interpretive material about world war i and about the memorial. each panel has a quotation from someone associated with the war. that talks about in a

so you'll find our collections all over the world as we speak right now.ological issue, is the degree to which you, and i used the word before, you contextualise what is here and explain to people that so many of the collectors and so many of the amazing sort of exploration expeditions which brought stuff here were absolutely tied up to colonialism, to imperialism and indeed, to violence. and i'm not necessarily seeing that you're being open and upfront about that in this museum. i think it's a very legitimate challenge. and i think it's one of those challenges that if you say, "have we done as much as we could, should "and will be doing to tell more of the stories?", i think the answer is perhaps not. i mean, i'll give you a simple example. if you think about the captain cook expeditions on the endeavour back in the late 18th century, extraordinary expeditions, the first time europeans, they weren't discovered, but the first time europeans had actually been to australia or new zealand. we're very fortunate to have the entire botanical artworks of those co

leaders to promise all over the world have to be really careful about in the future. so there is so there some kind of positives and as you've heard we're not collectively as diplomats leading such a huge carbon footprint behind us and so that is a positive in itself but there are risks there are risks from hostile groups which can try to exploit the technology there are tech there are basic admin and technological risks that can impede the conversation that can get in the way of the frankness of the conversation that that human contact that you just heard about but i always say to ambassadors and from ministers who are cautious of getting involved in social media that to me the smartphone has both the opportunity and the threat it was the way i could connect with young people across the middle east but also the way the means by which terrorists were tracking my movements it was a real opportunity and a real threat so there are real risks using this technology but the biggest risk is not to be out there trying to leave that space to our opponents terrorists or there i

could this be something that world leaders, diplomats all over the world have to be really careful aboutfuture? >> yet, so there some clear positives. as you've heard, collectively as diplomats, we are not leaving such a huge carbon footprint behind us. so that is a positive in itself. but there are risks. there are risks from hostile groups, which can try to exploit the technology, there are basic admin and technological risks that can impede the conversation, that can get in the way of the frankness of the conversation. that human contact that you just heard about. but i always say to investors and foreign ministers to be cautious of getting involved in social media. for me, the smartphone was both the opportunity and a threat. it was the way that i could connect with young people across the middle east, but also the way, the means by which terrorists were tracking my movements. it was a real opportunity and a real threat. so there are real risks using this technology, but the biggest risk is not to be out there trying to leave that space to our opponents. >> teresa, there is hope that

world can get them. right now the world is not on tack to get them in anywhere near the time frame that they need to get them in order to get the variants that will render moot. the companies that have developed these vaccines to fund the development and their testing and to ramp up their funding to the tunes of billions. but now, faced on most countries on earth and anywhere near the numbers, the biden administration has made this incredible announcement that they support breaking the patents in a limited way. they support giving up the recipe for vaccines so other companies in other countries around the world can make their own generic versions. like those companies that came forward and said, we know bayer has the patent, we can make cipro. the biden administration is saying, yeah, let them do it. this was undoubtedly a hard call they led the global resistance. they've said they are adamantly opposed. pharmaceutical companies are more against this. the whole idea that they can invent things and have c
