This was one of europes largest refugee camps morea on the greek island of lesbos fires have torn through tents and dilapidated structures they were thought to have been deliberately lit by people fed up with their desperate existence compounded by coronavirus care of their kids far far. Far worse. Thousands of people became homeless once again and precious family belongings hastily bundles together to form makeshift bedding there were no fatalities but these are lives thrust even deeper now into limbo is very very very unfair to very very different chord is it possible is it also is very broad. Or purport far more now has come 3rd if you dont want to go is living here because this problem but if i may be dead now it is now the camp had housed more than 12000 people in cramped unsanitary conditions designed for a quarter of that number of conditions in which corona virus could easily flourish.

The governor of oregon says blazes burning across the state could bring the greatest loss of life from wildfires in its history this is close to 100 active fires burn across the u. S. Coast with warnings in place from mexico to canada blazes in california have been through a record 930000 hectares in recent weeks as the state sees a record heat wave files are also raging in the state of washington. And montana. From want to settle into problems live in los angeles so they extend to these watchful eyes and really quite staggering out on the west case. The staggering is a very good word to use in this instance of the floor and the fires a car burning in half a dozen or more states there are 80 major fires across the Mountain West and the Pacific States and dozens of catastrophic wildfires of those major fires have hit the state of oregon oregon doesnt usually have to deal with these kinds of wild cards because its its in the in the sort of wet climate of the Pacific Northwest but there hasnt been a lot of rain this summer so the forests are very dry and the weekends are gusting up to 80 Kilometers Per Hour so thats a definitely a recipe for disaster several communities and hundreds of homes have been destroyed now there have been no fatalities recorded thus far in oregon but as you mentioned Governor Kate Brown said that once authorities get into the the hinterland into these small communities there could be major loss of life and property due to these wildfires here in california hundreds of people had to be evacuated by National Guard helicopters from remote back country campgrounds and remote townships in the sierra mountains there are 28 major fires according to governor gavin newsom in the state of california 14000. 00 firefighters out on the front lines and the governor said a short while ago it is a Daily Briefing that what is happening this year is simply without precedent also apparently without precedent is the kind of eerie scenes that were seeing now in cities like San Francisco. Oh which you can probably see in these pictures looks like a kind of a martian. Sky overhead this weird reddish orange glow in the sky casting a pall over cities in San Francisco in oregon and elsewhere obviously air quality is a concern in some places however there is some good news to end this report with the Weather Forecast is improving and meteorologists say that the heavy winds should be dying down over the next couple of days and that if thats true it cant happen fast enough for the residents and the firefighters out on the front lines and just briefly rob the wildfires i see that theyve had they happened in the past but do we know why these ones asay severe. I think it comes down in large part to changes in climate we have had intermittent drought in california and other states for years on and off now the forests are extremely dry because it simply hasnt rained since the winter time. There are other factors at play there is the bark beetle infestation which is also been linked to Global Warming is these insects proliferate as the weather gets warmer they burrow into the bark of pine trees they kill the pine trees the pine trees then essentially become sticks of kindling ready to burn and. There was also a very unusual phenomenon in august of dry thunderstorms with tens of thousands of lightning strikes yet no rain and a lot of those fires were started by the by it lightning strikes some fires have also been started by human carelessness but overall as as governor newsome here in california says. There is a Climate Change factor involved here and he says he has no patience anymore for anyone who would deny that fact Lauren Reynolds thank you very much indeed. An unexplained illness in a British Foreign to it has brought trials for one of the worlds most promising coronavirus vaccines to a sudden halt also being invested in the u. K. Based drug astra zeneca say the delay is routine but its dimming hopes that a shot could be ready soon its largely reports that comes on the same day that britains Prime Minister put new restrictions in place warning they could be there for months. The Oxford University vaccine has huge potential its already passed 2 phase of its testing and is now being rolled out to some of the worst affected parts of the world from the 10s of thousands whove been given it many have provided a strong immune response to the virus yet so rigorous is the testing regime that an adverse reaction from a single patient has led to the trials having to be suspended by the manufacturer astra zeneca to ensure it is safe for everyone that means no new people being added to the trials are the sort of event happens very frequently in vaccine trials the reason we are hearing about it is because clearly theres a lot of scrutiny over the kind of a vaccine and clearly the research is that oxford and the company itself cane on being as ive been and transparent as possible the hope is that the trials can resume in a few weeks the best Case Scenario is still that hundreds of millions of doses are rolled out early next year scientific experts have been at pains to point out that just because someone is vaccinated and then becomes ill by no means does it imply that the vaccine caused the illness if anything they say hick ups like this are perfectly common in vaccine shiling they also argue that it should be taken by the public as evidence that the process is trustworthy more concerning for the British Government is that people have stopped taking the virus seriously enough particularly young people who are unlikely to get ill but could kill their grandparents yet that messaging isnt working and so the Prime Minister announced that as of monday next week gatherings of more than 6 will become illegal this will apply in any setting indoors or outdoors at home or in the pub. The ban will sit out and be set out in law and it will be enforced by the police and anyone breaking the rules risk being dispersed fined and possibly arrested the great fear is that with autumn coming people refusing to obey the rules could start to have an impact on hospitalisations again it hasnt happened yet though in the absence of a vaccine Public Awareness is still the best hope largely aljazeera oxford. Earlier we spoke to derek gatherer vajra just at Lancaster University about the decision to pause the astra zeneca trial he says trials are rigorous but this one is being carried out at unprecedented speed. Its important to remember that this Clinical Trial is unprecedented partly because of the sheer scale we have nearly 20000 participants there on several continents so theres a lot of logistical problems in running it or also the sheer speed with which it has to be carried out because of the urgency of getting a vaccine by the target of the end of the year and also finally because the disease that were trying to prevent with the vaccine is one that produces new symptoms and possibly as many as the corpses of the people who contract it so for that reason everybody on the trial has to be under extreme medical scrutiny they have to be tasted very regularly to see whether they have coronavirus. Shedding the virus and not just sometimes because the mean or have some symptoms and this means that wallace and things will be picked up in the routine medical screening some may be trivial and some may be quite serious and when Something Like this doesnt arise which is out of the normal things that we dont normally see and vaccine trials that was beyond my my own fevers and. Often a complication of of the vaccines then the trial has to be stalked while the situations assessed regarding what the potential causes of this. Disease are and the volunteers.

The Security Council has been getting a briefing from some of the uns top officials and humanitarian affairs peacekeeping affairs and Political Affairs and its a pretty bleak picture not only is the violence continuing efforts to help conflict and do away with conflict are struggling because of restrictions placed on. Diplomats and so on because of the coronavirus so we heard from rosemary de carlo the Political Affairs corner that there was some initial cessation of hostilities in country countries after the un 1st called for the ceasefire about 2 months ago but that is pretty much falling apart weve seen that in countries like yemen and libya where conflict and violence is still ongoing she gave an example of syria where talks had to stop peace talks had to stop before resuming because some of the participants came down with kovac but the really bleak picture comes on the humanitarian front undersecretary general mark lowcock who heads up humanitarian affairs for the United Nations said that conflict prone countries with existing refugee and humanitarian issues already make up about a 3rd of cases of coronavirus globally and a 3rd of desk globally in those numbers he says are probably much under represented in the totals because testing is so limited in these area.

S. Election and what we have here is the single most important issue for americans right now many millions of americans are out of work many people have lost loved ones so the notion that the president may not have been truthful that families may have been able to do more to prepare then if they were given notice is certainly not sitting well now the white house and the president there sort of cordon needed Communications Response have said that the president has always been truthful but at the same time there are 18 hours of interviews recorded by the legendary Journalist Bob Woodward and one of those tapes and one of those recordings is being played for americans on evening newscast right now and in it is the allegation that the president really acknowledged early on that the coronavirus or covert 19 was deadly that it was more serious than the flu the president says that the reason he didnt tell americans that from the beginning is because he wanted to show leadership and not incite panic heres what he had to say. Im not going to drive. This country or the world into a frenzy we want to Show Confidence we want to show strength we want to show strength as a nation and thats what ive done and weve done very well weve done well from any standard.

Of the years of criticism the Academy Awards have unveiled strict new eligibility rules to boost diversity among nominees for best picture under the new rules films vying for the award will need to comply with at least 2 of 4 criteria designed to improve representation on and off screen from 2024 all films hoping to win the coveted prize or need to employ a minimum number of cast or crew from under represented backgrounds or turn to release the film will need to directly tackle themes affecting those communities addressing gender Sexual Orientation Race Ethnicity or disability the final 2 measures concerned offering internships and training to under represent the workers and diversity in the movies marketing and distribution teams earlier i spoke to a full rein the creator of the social Media Movement oscars so white which highlighted the lack of diversity in hollywood she now represents also on a Digital Content studio that advances opportunities for people of color both on and off camera i started by asking for her reaction to the new policy. Think that it is in the right direction and yet theres still much more work that needs to be done in fact beans are our c. S. Procedures that the economy could have put in place long ago more than 5 years before i ask her so why when i created it in 2015 and in fact there are several loopholes that will address the fact that were really still not seeing true Diversity Inclusion and reading from the attack and i mean do you think that this is. The time scale is realistic or do you think that its not ambitious enough its definitely not ambitious enough you know we have to wait until 2025 and and i obviously were in the middle of the pandemic and so many studios are still shut down but you know the way the Film Industry works there is no reason why at least some of these issues could be put in place much sooner the 2nd time its for the end product is one thing but how do they get the pool of talent that they need if if people are not represented enough generally in the industry how theyre going to manage to achieve these targets you know i have always since i created oscar so white in 2015 that the real push should be who is telling the story and whose story is being told and so if we are more intentional with respect to the people that we choose and screenwriters for example the people that we choose behind the camera to direct it to be our gas in our back there in our best boys and so on then we can normalize inclusion and equity throughout the process on the cademy has said that it would double says its already doubled the number of women members and triple the number of people from under a percentage ethnic and racial communities thats after the backlash that followed your your comments in 2016 and theyve done that by 2020 do you think thats a positive sign. Its not and i couldve told them that its money 16 when they announced this initiative because what we know is that the Academy Membership is still overwhelmingly white and male the average age of an account remember is late fiftys early sixtys what we also know is the Academy Still does not require its membership to view the films before they vote so what this ends up being is a popularity contest amongst older white men i have always said that it should be a meritocracy you know you make the best films possible and then you let that best film win but if the Academy Membership is mean that watching the films but theyre making their decision based on whether they know the director or whether the premise of the film sounds good or anything other than taking the time out to watch the various films that are nominated and then truly this is just a popularity contest and does not reflect the moviegoers those of us who pay our hard earned dollars either to stream films or to watch them in theaters and so we should have more representation both in front of and behind the camera.
