A grants to malaria scientists discover a microbe the prevents mosquitoes getting infected. The fight against the corona virus has been given an 8000000000 dollar boost leaders from the e. U. And other nations pledged to cash in a Video Conference on monday it will be used to help speed up research into a vaccine and treatments by the United States where almost 70000 people have died didnt take part john holl has more. Coronavirus isnt going away so the world must find ways to live with it better ways of testing for it more effective ways of treating it most importantly eventually a vaccine against it. The patents are many the goal is one to defeat this virus and e. U. Led virtual pledging conference aims to channel billions of dollars into the Global Response its not just about pouring money into research but also about pooling resources and expertise for the common good it really measurable sense and. It will be. Now. Some. Why. The u. S. Isnt involved and while china is offering to help there are concerns the worlds 2 Top Economists already at political loggerheads me engage in a vaccine war donald trump has already claimed a vaccine is just months away. Scientists point out that even if a vaccine is discovered in months itll be a lot longer than that before its up and available to the billions wholl need it which is why its so important to find drug treatments that work in the meantime both are central to the funds being pledged and both are at advanced stages of trialing and research here at the university of oxford professor Martin Landry is leading the Worlds LargestClinical Trial into coronavirus drug treatments a project called recovery hes hoping to find an existing drug or combination of drugs that works to save lives well before a vaccine becomes globally available i think your is probably too strong i dont think theyll be a single drug that suddenly wipes out. Virus but i think effective treatments are in sight and theyre critical theyre critical because patients are dying today and tomorrow and the day after and even with the best will in the world were 18 months off having a scaled up vaccine at best we need to treatments that deal with the problem of now only in europe and parts of asia are there real signs of an infection slowdown globally new cases of covert 1000 are being reported at more or less the same rate as they were a month ago he has a greatest for the developing world where social distancing usually adequate impossible the greatest hope lies in a global effort against a global threat jonah how aljazeera oxford professor michel scheme is the former executive director of the global fund to fight aids tuberculosis and malaria he says the meeting was about far more than just a vaccine. There are 3 main pillars through to that conference one is the search for a vaccine the other is the search for therapies and the 3rd that is make sure that we have accurate tests to diagnose koran thereby virus and also to test for immunity to the virus because the currently available tests are still not fully accurate and theyre not scalable to the scale we need worldwide now to answer your question its a critical issue. I think the discussions have to start no upstream from the 18 months or so until we have evidence for efficacy of a vaccine and here again i mean despite all of the obstacles the intellectual property. The massive investments that maybe some private companies would have to make. Do generating a vaccine i would still feel optimistic because again looking back at h. L. V. Aids we have succeeded having 25000000 people on treatment worldwide for with drugs that were just an affordable in the very early days of the epidemic for the people so if we Work Together again if we have a global responds with Global Solidarity and commitment from the political world well get there.

S. And colombia of backing the plot in an effort to overthrow president Nicolas Maduro as a this media is a form of venice when a diplomat at the United Nations hes joining us now from Denver Colorado on skype we appreciate your time so thank you very much indeed if i understand it correctly i think back in 2017 you broke with them a dual government and said that you were to you were would oppose a military intervention against the government i just want to make put that into context before we have this conversation given the circumstances for forgive me please go ahead. Oh please i didnt mean to interrupt you know this will thanks a lot rob for having me i just want to clarify when i broke with with the. Government at that time was actually to protest a Human Rights Violations and to denounce him and 20 more officials to the International Criminal court thank you very much indeed for putting that into context for us because that leads us into the conversation that were having they if there was going to be an attempt to try to overthrow them a dual government in venice where the do you think that this is the most likely way that it would happen. Well and thank you for such an interesting question a we have to understand that our constitution which is a very noble constitution from 999. 00 includes in 2 of each articles article 333350 of them in this well and constitution it mandates every venezuelan citizen with or without the 32 act and do every by all necessary means to restore the rule of law in this moment venice when they set fail this state is drawn by narcos is sponsoring International Terrorism grace asians our country at least 40 percent is run by 11 fark and has well and trained collective us so i do believe that there is no other way out including International Humanitarian intervention with military support due to the fact that is a. Humanitarian crisis of apocalyptic dimensions where as more than 500000 people have died manning posed starvation and medical scarcity this was before 19 at least 1500 people were dying daily in hospitals so now what we see is their reaction of venice was trying to restore the rule of law is this the only way thats going to happen well robert if we look at what are really the the authorized a legal scenarios whereas the use of force is legally authorized its either by selfdefense article 51. 00 of the un charter or the authorization by the Security Council or are to be responsibly to protect an International Humanitarian intervention again by the Security Council or in this case a war of National Liberation im sorry to take in so much air time i just wanted to reach that last point i do believe this is a legal way to undertake our sovereignty that has been taken by. Several nonstate actors like e l n far and help me out with some strange something here let me out with some some context here because we appear to be talking forgive me like 2 different purposes youre talking about is the ability to the right of venezuelans to take control of their own country that appears to be a separate issue from what were talking about which is that there appears to have been an attempt by foreigners not necessarily of Foreign Government we dont yet know who might be hiding behind this raid but certainly there is at least one i believe us. Man who is of us former special forces soldier who is claiming that he is involved in this raid and the other all the foreigners involved in this is well who attempted to carry out this raid on Venezuela Venezuela was saying that it was prompted by colombia there seems to be a lot of confusion and a lot of gray area here and what im really asking you for is is this the right way is this the most likely thing to try to overthrow the macdougall government in venezuela is this the best way to do this. 20172800 we have seen already oscar for example that there were Different Actors at that time like oscar paris who was murder after surrendering this is a Police Officer that had already a collective action with some military they were able to take weapons and arsenal from different areas without hurting anyone and when they where did that where. Lets say surrounded by military forces they surrendered live on social media and they were completely by r. P. G. As they were destroyed and after that pictures show how they were actually killed or shot in the head even after the death and this included already at woman that was pregnant you we saw for that in 2018 captain who continued this idea of a raiding military arsenal also i believe for the liberation of venezuela and so what. Let me interrupt you because i understand that certainly these are key elements that youre talking about with relation to the subject that youre putting forward what im trying to get at is that as far as this raid is concerned there seems to be a. War of words if youre like between the macdougall government who say that while i dont might well be responsible for this but its also blaming colombia its blaming the u. S. This whole situation seems incredibly vague and confused and i dont really understand whether or not this raid has actually gone ahead my question to you was given your experience. As a diplomat working with the venezuelan governments is this typical of the kind of thing that we might see a government bringing into operation to try to distract from the situations that youve been talking about at home are we talking about the opposition trying to carry this out as an attempted coup against the material government. Absolutely a here and i understand then and i cope with your confusion because its a global confusion i do believe the narc origi most nikolaus about though is an expert working in gray areas theyre actually remember who their best allies are china russia iran and cuba and they have years of experience not only in that what we would call the se metric war which is having that narrative and the counter narrative this is a perfect example of what they can create their bay of pigs through one narco boss who was cleaver alkali who is claiming to be this target of this movement but he was actually in my understand that he has infiltrated the opposition somehow now hes on her. Arrest in the us for Drug Trafficking but certainly theres a lot of people could have infiltrated a possible intrusion that they were waiting for like nobodys going to come in through my couteau which is a main port area 8 people they were waiting for them to kill them so i do believe they were trying to cover up not only that murder and carnage of 25 people one week ago in that one out of prison there not only to cover up the 500000 innocent civilians they already victims of this criminal regime for hunger starvation and medical scarcity but also to try to put the blame on the u. S. And colombian i dont believe at all in the award that they say this is absolutely a cover up that hes trying to give them oxygen what is happening to them theyre not going to say we appreciate your time or knowledge as a thank you very much indeed for joining us thank you thank you thank you so much effort here. A stay at home orders due to the cut on a virus remain in effect in many parts of the United States but nicer weather is bringing many more people outside that means war challenges for Law Enforcement as it is kristen salumi has more from new york. Protesters defied sheltered place orders and descended on power for the state capital over the weekend some framed the issue as one of personal freedom others as economic survival. Many were not Wearing Masks as they gathered closely together nor were the Police Officers they confronted dozens were arrested throughout most of the country gatherings are prohibited but going outside is not and here in new yorks central park people have been coming out to enjoy the warmer weather often under the watchful eye of Police Officers charged with maintaining social distancing measures city Officials Say most new yorkers are complying but Police Issued at least 50 Court Summonses for violations over the weekend and in this case caught on video by a bystander 3 people were eventually arrested after police approached a group for congregating the mayor says this incident also involved drugs and since like this this is a rarity but clearly there was more going on here as the commissioner just said than a typical social distancing enforcement situation the officer seen hitting a man has been placed on desk duty as the incident is investigated but critics say enforcement has been an even at best Public Health matters are not about cops arresting people and. Beating them to beating them up its about Police Officers helping people to comply with the situation in central park they were doing that they were giving out masks on the Lower East Side im no beating up People Police are likely to face more challenges as pressure. To reopen society grows and i feel like new york will have to be socially distance much longer than anywhere else but i also think weve been more responsible than anywhere else so hopefully people can continue i saw a picture on facebook last night where it was comparing a park in harlem versus a park in the west village and people were not social. People were in harlem but thats because theres a Police Presence to make them do it officials behind the restrictions argue that enforcing them for everyone until theres a vaccine is the only way to make it safe enough for more people to eventually get back to work christine salumi al jazeera new york. Scientism made a major breakthrough in the fight against malaria they found a microbe the prevents mosquitoes from being infected with the disease stopping them from infecting humans a microbe is known as microsoft and b. And it lives in the guts and genitals of mosquitoes researchers couldnt find malaria in any carry in the microbe the World Health Organization says more than 400000. 00 people are killed by malaria each year most of them are children under 5 its thought at least 40 percent of mosquitoes in an area would be needed to be infected with the microbe for that to have a serious impact on the. Jet may have been is a Research Scientist at the International Center of insect physiology and ecology he led the study and explains how mosquito populations could be controlled with the discovery of this new microbe. Theres a few characteristics that we found in this micro theyd actually give us some clues as to what we could use to get it out and so that is the vertical transmission so a mother mosquito sacks all of her offspring. By by by inserting the micro spirity into their eggs. So that is one way in which the symbiote can spread into a population it is also infectious and weve actually found that it can be infected as mosquitoes mate now so we could mass release male mosquitoes which dont have the capacity to transmit malaria in any case its only transmitted by humans and they could then spread that inspection. To females who truth then pass it on to their offspring so there are a number of different ways that we could get it out there and thats really the focus for her since you tristans weve made incredible progress in this been i you know a lot of hard work to to get us to where we are but were still very far away from where we need to be and as youve pointed out there are too many people dying every year from malaria or so. New developments such as this could could really be a game changing. You are. Saying and.
