Im gemini with the sporting event has had to pay refuses to criticize christianity when our day is top scorer it faces a Police Investigation for breaching cave it 19. 00 rules by going on a ski trip. So European Health regulators have given emergency approval for the Oxford Astra ZenecaCoronavirus Vaccine saying it can be administered to adults of all ages while the announcement comes as a drug maker and the e. U. Early disputes over supply the block was expecting at least 80000000 doses by the end of march but a week ago because said it wouldnt meet those expectations claiming manufacturing issues well despite growing criticism that vaccine rollouts all too slow regulators saying having another approved vaccine will help fight the virus its a real pleasure to be here until i announce the 3rd positive opinion for the authorize ation of the astra zeneca covert 19 vaccine this expand the range of Vaccines Available to e. U. Member states which will all help to bring the pandemic under control and protect the citizens of the e. U. We now have 3 vaccines that have been developed and recommended for approval approval against a disease that we did not know one year ago and theres also optimism regarding global inoculation to more american vaccines have shown promising results and trial runs the novaks job that was around 90 percent effective and the single those johnson and johnson one around 60 percent are right lets bring in step vance and his life for us from outside outside the e. U. Regulators offices and steps so we have approval across the board for all adults in the area for the astra zeneca vaccine. Yes we do we finally have this approval the European Medicines Agency took its time if you compare it to the u. K. Where already for nearly 4 weeks the same vaccine has already been given to people of all ages and at the same time the agency also has sort of given some kind of doubt about the effect you see of this. Thing they said its only 59 percent they say its enough its promising but its not as much as a 2 out of x. Instead already have been approved and used here in the European Union a biotech fighter and modernity and on the other hand there was this whole issue about the age limit german scientists have sat early in the week that it shouldnt be given this vaccine to people 65 years and all because they are not enough data to show that its actually even official for this age group and the European Medicines Agency says thats true theres not enough data but they did find antibodies in elderly people as well using the same facts so it should be good to use but there they have raised this doubt which actually could lead to Member States in the federal Member States in the European Union actually having 2nd thoughts of course administering the same vaccine to this the age group specifically here in the netherlands for example this debate will still be held next week if this vaccine is actually used for this group which was actually ordered specifically for this group of people so it will could lead to millions of people still not getting this vaccine because this doubt has been raised by the may. Step. In the reporting from. Cambridge fully developed from berlin who says the approval of the us is a make a vaccine has been produced and with concern. One e. U. Agency positively referring to the astra zeneca vaccine as being a key part in our 3rd vaccine approved for use inside the e. U. Supposedly to provide relief to people that theres extra weapon as it were in the fight against corona virus and yet a colleague of hers from a different part of the e. U. Institutions affectively introducing export controls on vaccines created in the e. U. Well that appears to be particularly targeted exactly at astra zeneca people making this vaccine we were hearing about the approval in amsterdam but disapproval as it were in one sense or disagreement about whats happening with astra zeneca from brussels the point here is the company and the e. U. The European Commission are at loggerheads with each other over this a very long contract between the 2 the central parts of which which are in dispute are what happens with the vaccine created in the e. U. Which then gets shipped to the United Kingdom and what happens in terms of the number of doses of the vaccine to be given to be provided to the e. U. The amount of money and moreover the speed perhaps from the europeans perspective the most important part which is that did astra zeneca when it signed this agreement with the e. U. Did it know that it had many other commitments that were several other commitments which would involve many millions of doses theres more potential health for the global Inoculation Campaign with 2 more american vaccines showing promising results in trial runs the novaks job has around is around 90 percent effective and the single does johnson and johnson vaccine thats proven to be efficient in 2 thirds of cases paul brennan has this update now from london. The news that not just one but 2 potential vaccines could be reaching Vaccination Centers such as the one im standing outside by the middle of 2021 has been described as thrilling here in the u. K. The 1st of the vaccines which announced data on friday morning was novaks they resulted in 89. 3 percent effectiveness against covert 19 and what was of particular interest was there to dose vaccine which can be stored at normal fridge temperature had 85 percent effectiveness against the u. K. Variant of corona virus of covert 19 now the next stage in the process is for the u. K. Regulator the m h r 8 to put the novaks vaccine through a rolling approval that will take several weeks were also many weeks away from novaks actually submitting its final briefing its dossier of evidence to the regulator for final approval but the expectation is that somewhere around the 2nd half of 2021 that could get approval and start being used the other vaccine which is in the pipeline is from a Company Called jensen which is affiliated with johnson and johnson people might know it better as what they found was 66 percent effectiveness for their vaccine its a lower percentage d reason why that is warning signs it was exciting is because johnsons vaccine is a good one and those vaccine it can also be stored at normal fridge temperature but that one dose vaccine means youre not beholden to potential supply issues further down the line if youre waiting for your 2nd dose to come through all in all considering that less than a year ago many scientists were worried that they may never find a vaccine for corona virus to have 3 already approved for use here in the u. K. And 2 more in the pipeline at least it is good news for the scientists and for the politicians. The World Health Organization is warning of a prolonged coronavirus pandemic of vaccines are not distributed equally leaders at the World Economic forum theyve been discussing a plan of action to include lower income nations in the global inoculation drive rich countries face criticism over whats being called vaccine nationalism chief called the practice a catastrophic moral failure if we lose trust in International Collaboration so by saying nationalism we will all pay the price in terms of a protracted recovery. We are asking those governments that have already received their livers of mud scenes to live see their Health Workers and all the people and share those we called us so either countries can do the same lets be not to thomas pogge is a professional professor of philosophy and Political Science at Yale University hes also a cofounder of incentives for Global Health and joins us on skype from new haven thomas pro gay welcome to the program so this there is this kind of unprecedented Global Demand for vaccines and richer nations of course having far greater buying power than poor and always hoarding thats going on means even longer for poorer nations to get their own vaccine campaigns going it is a moral failure. Yes it is a more fair you know i would even say that 2 different models that are against one family are concerns the distribution of the vaccine but we have the other failure d is that we have a cigarette scenes you know we dont have as much effect seeing as we could have if we use all the capacities for manufacturing vaccine he could. See much greater production of that scene and thereby serve the whole world much faster than we are now doing with the limited vaccine that we have firms that have a back seat in front of us on the wall to what degree is it crucial that all countries have a comprehensive rollout of a global vaccine and how if that doesnt happen how is that going to stop immunity global immunity. Well the most important factor here is that this virus is a smart virus its equating the patients with variants of itself and the more people are infected with the more opportunities there are for meeting with patients to her recently patients may or may not be susceptible to the acts are the ones that you have so far the better up with the South African berry and its coming to our shores and it is certainly less susceptible to the accidents that you are have than the traditional coal that 19 has been so that is a significant the engine need me have to produce all the great scenes be an input and then apply them as quickly as possible much of it is possible in order to vaccinate as many people as possible so as to think the number of infected people and thereby its the ability of all byrons to develop new variants of it saw that theres not any American Parents of his was an imperative and actually beating the pandemic but what about remote parts of the world where the maybe no roads no means of getting to communities is certainly no way of getting frozen vaccines that possibly chilled vaccines might be feasible but its still going to be very very difficult to. Yes its going to be very difficult but those are also the regions that d d have dont pose much of a risk for the rest of the world but its very difficult to get there its also d very difficult for the virus if it actually reaches the chance to get out of there so i think that in the moment the prioritizing the rich and people say that is terrible but its not all that terrible because those rich countries actually pose the greatest risk because so many people fly out of the United States out of europe to the rest of the world and they have a quota system the supply new viruses the other parts of the world its pretty good that those countries and those people get vaccinated with some buy are right absolutely i bet it is kind of unseemly this supply spot for the i stress that make a vaccine in europe isnt it when other nations are way down the list yes and of course we should try to deploy the vaccine that we have in a way that is maximally efficient when we total number of infected people as fast as possible but as i said its also a very important tool in queens our d capacity to make that scene he could make the much more it seems that he are making. All existing productive absoluteness and creative will at least. Thats the case as well. Variations of dont get your perspective on this do appreciate that tom is probably the professor of philosophy and Political Science at Yale University thank you welcome. But you also had on the news hour including. A pretty good fortune for the chinese during the noon here but im reporting about these charities is turning out to be really very bad luck here and.

The people in the niger delta especially communities affected by oil spills over the last 50 years really happy about the verdict of the appeal court in the netherlands a lot of them are saying that this clears the way for them to raise issues of contamination issues of repair relations issues of human rights abuses in the niger delta following years of exploration by or Oil Companies and were looking at probably only a fraction of those almost peel works or other people damage thats being treated right now by both shell and the Nigerian Government al jazeera visited ago and he especially the border creeks and other neighboring communities to look at how the was pills over the years have impacted on the environment and what the company as well as the government i doing to do to remedy the situation. What is educate anything but to flush out the truck or look in border creek as it all comes to the surface a boom truss the sludge for your back which is a job the contractors hired by all john child must quickly accomplish before the type returns the cleanup is due to litigation against the company pulling a Massive Oil Spill in the record in 2009 is scope of this walk is jewel really did.

Heavy machinery is now deployed farther inland to excavate and treat contaminated soil we get from what we had planned but were trying to see what we can do to catch up theres still a lot of work to do to catch up i mean to take. An assessment by the United NationsEnvironment Program 1st published in 2011 shows that pollution from more than half a century of Oil Production was worse than all regionally thought the report recommended a 1000000000. 00 fund to clean up alone an area covering 1000 square kilometers the work which began success later could take at least 25 years to complete much of a is a wasteland this is dead fish and crustaceans no longer spawn here farmlands fish ponds and even underground Water Supplies have been polluted by hydrocarbons leaking from old pipelines we could buy some activists in the region are less impressed with the work so far. Is one. How many. And thats not the only concern significant amount of all 30 continues in the region father complicating the process of reversing the environmental damage experts believe 15 to 20000 square kilometers full of nigerias Oil Producing region require the attention is currently receiving they fear that unless entire region is decontaminated clean up me in the end be a waste of time and resources as re contamination could occur.

China says it will no longer recognise the British National overseas passport available to 3000000 hong kong residents beijing made the move on after the u. K. Launched a visa scheme allowing these passport holders to apply for produce citizenship the u. K. Government says its standing out for freedom because of the Controversial National security law imposed on hong kong by china nathan lors a prodemocracy activists who fled to london from hong kong he says he doesnt expect beijings decision to home be passport holders rights to emigrate to the u. K. For now we dont have much information about how the transcript will carry out these notion of the statement basically 100 people get into Mainland China and we dont use vienna or passport we use the term permits and when we leave hong kong if government is going to apply these. This statement to the way that they have brought the control maybe we need to use the whole passport leave the border and when we arrive in the u. K. We are getting with all the in all possible. Action see announced by the Chinese Government i dont see it. Really creating a lot of chaos in terms of getting people moving into the u. K. Or in the daily lives. It has clarified themselves online they dont they have not reached any part of the. Sun the british on that corrosion yes they are just awful in a route to for people assume a great deal and changing the status of the and the identity of the people under that arrangement and of course we can see china is the site rich. First by. The National Security law and destroying the freedom in hong kong so i think it is right for a response from the u. K. Governments. The top u. S. Securities regulator is investigating potential market abuse or to a social Media Campaign triggered a show of buying frenzy in the Electronics Company a game stop company showed up more than 70 percent on friday after a steep loss the day before Trading Platform robin hood should block people from buying shares in game stop and several other companies reverse this decision the saga has led to a financial battle between multibillion dollar wall street hedge fund and trade is lets get more now from kristen salumi whos in new york kristen the Housing Market responding to all of this well nick overall the market is down considerably with the 3 major indexes trading more than 2 percent lower even as these stocks that are considered way over valued by the experts continue to soar higher game stop which was once considered over valued at 40. 00 a share has been trading today at more than 3 100. 00 a share amc which is a National Theater chain is up its prices up more than 60 percent today and this is all causing great concern among Institutional Investors in particular hedge funds who were betting that the stocks would be dropping in particular one hedge fund had to close their positions on game stop after losing literally billions of dollars others are hanging in there hoping that the prices will eventually drop all of that is whats weighing on the Broader Market and its challenging basically the assumptions of wall street and how it all works namely that you have to have certain fundamentals in order to be considered a valuable stock fundamentals like being profitable and having assets on hand or having Growth Potential so if this is all being driven christened by by individual socalled Retail Investors where does it all end. Well that is the question that the securities and Exchange Commission and other regulators are really grappling with you talked about robin hood the app that many of these Retail Investors have been using to make these trades they did have to limit their decided to limit some of the volume on these volatile stocks and then they faced huge backlash for that not only from investors but also from politicians its a rare point of unity among the far left and far right politicians here in the United States who see this as an undemocratic move and robin hoods whole claim for being is to democratize finance and to allow more finance and now weve got congressional hearings being called on the matter you know this is all you know being debated by traders and investors and stock market types the concern is some compare it to a ponzi scheme at some point the price is going to rise so high in those who got it and then its going to fall and people are going to face significant losses but the bigger concern is the fact the effect on the broader equities market and thats what regulators are weighing and concerned about girls or a person thats the persons who you so.

Exports of cherries from chile to china taken it and it appears to be well because of a rumor unsubstantiated reports begun circulates on chinese social media that traces of covert 19 were found in some boxes of cherries are lots of america at its embassy in yemen reports now from santiago. All year long producers wait for this moment when their cherries go to the final stage of selection sanitation and packing before being shipped off to china for the chinese this color red britains good fortune so they import cherries mainly from chile to celebrate the Chinese New Year which starts next month but when an unsubstantiated story went viral on chinese social networks last week it brought misfortune to chiles multi 1000000000. 00 cherry industry if the money from us are not the same this was the result of nonofficial information in china a rumor thats provoked a steep drop in demand that our government is working round the clock with the private sector to see what we can do. When claims began circulating that some imported cherries had been found to be tainted with coded 19 overnight exports plummeted from 500. 00 to 0 containers a day australian cherry producers have also been impacted it would not nearly as much as in chile which exports much larger quantities noice all know what weve never been formally accused of anything by chinese symmetry or customs with already stressed a story in the media that was never attracted by the ones who suffer most of the small and medium sized produces whove invested everything they have and when to do well basing basing on a good idea.

Tyson received 2 emmy awards for the film she broke down barriers for not just black people in hollywood but for black women to particularly women of darkness yet she wanted to uplift the culture she wanted to change this the perceptions and not buy into the stereotypes that we know that hollywood and the Entertainment Industry has historically had for black people born in harlem to west indian immigrant parents tyson broke into show business at age 30 she rejected the standard roles of maid and mammy that hollywood ordained for dark skinned black actresses tyson appeared in dozens of Films Television shows and plays.

The 1st time judge was have been successfully reintroduced into argentinas weapons after becoming extinct decades ago in the province of korean terms so what it has more free to roam more than one and a half 1000000 acres of swamps waterways and islands in the a barren National Park in northern eastern argentina this female jogger is back in the walled with a new edition car i am part of her cubs both born in captivity. Its been 70 years since a species of all ages feline in the americas roamed the better wetlands in the province of cordiant as hunting and loss of habitat drove them to extinction but now for the 1st time a Conservation Program has managed to reintroduce the jag us to their natural habitat. He made every single moment these 1st 20 days have been very good for the mother shes established herself very quickly in a territory that shes getting to know little by little weve already recorded her hunting and feeding on several giant kepe barrus rodents maria was rescued from the wild in brazil after poachers killed her mother she was brought to argentina to be rehabilitated with other wild giant he was and 6 bred cubs the project has taken years of painstaking conservation work and faced major challenges. Seeing those jaguars walk through that gate was kind of an epiphany that these things that just 10 years ago or 15 years ago we thought i dont know that we thought it was impossible but we thought that it was a long shot we have over the last 20 years not a lot of things that. Most people or half of them thought it wasnt possible and the other half didnt like it. And would come to like it but this one has. Some. Ecosystems are perishing at a staggering rate across the southern most regions of south america logans farm isnt mine is a turning amazon canopies into grasslands and become the biggest threat to latin americas largest predator jaggers are extinct in several of their former domains with only 200. 00 left in argentinas wild. Other jaiku as will join us throughout this year yet our cats will be monitored using close g. P. S. For Data Collection thank you for joining us at the top of the food chain their presence in the wild is important without these beautiful big cats and other animals plants and trees may not survive so. Well its plain now to look under whos the executive director of the Wildlife Conservation society is Big Cats Program joins us now from new york and jack it was massively under threat as we were just hearing so this is really great news and. It is nick here trying testing news you know it to check you know has lost about half of its historic range is just being wiped out primarily by the activities of people and now only exists in 50 percent of where it used to survive and so up until now no one had figured out how you would reintroduce goes back into areas from which that theyd been wiped out from so so i think this is really a very positive step forward so i think were really going to learn some important things to be able to restore jackie was in areas across the arrange their way they no longer exist and its not just about restoring the big cats and selves is that its also part of this whole scheme to re wild and introducing this sort of the top of the thing would change what kind of impact does it have on the whole ecosystem. It has a really important impact i think i mean a profound impact on a number of levels you know at the ecological level we know that b cats and other cannava was a really important for just some of the important healthy functioning of an ecosystem so for example in iraq where these jaggers have been released you know theres a massive population problem of cappy power the huge you know theyre at the relative of the guinea pig about the size of a labrador the Worlds Largest rodent and and they are really devastated because hes dims when they get to too many numbers and that jagger is the main predator of the cappy bara so almost invariably over time as the jaguar population increases were going to see a sort of a rebalance of those relationships that that puts things back much more into the sort of you know how many us relationship that we look for in intact functioning ecosystems its not a danger if this is very successful and come back i think looking potentially in the area for about 100 years. Of this the conflict between humanity and water life that may come to the fore again. Yeah that conflict is one of the main issues why jackie has continued to be to be. Ok and why they continue to to lose numbers and range in this case i mean i know that this project has been going on for so long with such innovative techniques and the project organizers spent an enormous amount of time consulting with local communities and really engaging them to make sure that people were very well aware of whats going on that their livelihoods wouldnt be have that and so i think over time you know is that jagga a population does increase well have to keep an eye on the potential for conflict but i think you know im very hopeful that what well probably see is those local communities ultimately benefiting from the presence of jaggers and so if that the conflict to shoot recedes into the background and the presence of jaggers is actually welcomed as a really positive thing by those local people there potentially great source of revenue for tourism im sure and funny what about the knowledge gained here can it be easily transferred as all sorts of similar issues around the world of course absolutely and i think thats one of the most exciting things about this project is you know no one had ever done it until now were going to learn an enormous amount about how the jag us cope about how populations take hold and grow and you know it puts me in mind of one of the most important countries where the jack you are no longer exists as a breeding animal and thats here in the us where im speaking to you from we used to have the jagger in the us and now theres only the very occasional transients from mexico or so i think what we learned from you were i in argentina will be able to apply to other countries including restoring the jaguar here in the United States well its a very exciting project thanks for telling us about it may come to thank you a pleasure thanks.
