countries here to concerns about blood clotting the move was recommended by a government advisory committee after courts were reported an adult seem to have the job in norway the norwegian government's joins denmark and iceland in suspending the vaccine on thursday astra zeneca says its own analysis of safety data shows there's no increased risk of blood clots well let's get the latest night with joanna hall who joins us live from london joyner this is a new ball is it not not just for astra zeneca but for the the e.u. vaccination campaign. what will potentially for the vaccination campaigns everywhere the longer that doubt is allowed to persist about the safety of one vaccine that will only potentially fuel doubt across other vaccines it is a very worrying situation albeit that everyone involved at this point is stressing that there is no conclusive link between the astra zeneca jab and these blood clotting events this is a reason today sunday as arlen has become the latest in a string of countries at to call a temporary halt to their road out of the astra zeneca jab itself the deputy chief medical officer of the doctor wrote in berlin in a statement earlier citing a report by the norwegian health authority that for medical workers in norway mental health workers norway had developed blood clotting issues within 14 days of receiving the jab it was temporary halted in norway on thursday also in denmark and in iceland and the ripple effect has taken in most recently bulk area in the e.u. and also much more widely than that thailand has just called a temporary halt to its rollout of the astra zeneca job now as i was saying the irish sure it is very clear in pointing out that there. no conclusive link they're not alleging that at all they have taken this move they say out of an abundance of caution and that as soon as new information by the european medical association can establish that there's nothing more than coincidence involved here they will revisit their decision astra zeneca the u.k. based pharmaceutical company that manufactures this job as you said has been very quick to robustly defend its vaccine saying that in data accumulated over the last couple of months they've given us 70000000 doses of the spec seen since earlier in the year they say no evidence has come to light whatsoever of any side effects to do with a woman or a embolism or thrombosis beyond what would ordinarily be expected across a population size of that sort of size unvaccinated in other words 17000000 people who hadn't had the vaccine would be expected to deliver at least they snubber blood clot type events and astra zeneca as defense of the vaccine is echoed by the european medicines and social agency at the moment as well who are also reiterating there is no link they are saying people should continue to get be estrogenic a jab countries should continue to roll it out but the benefits far outweigh the negative aspects of it and that has been taken up by big countries including the u.k. germany france as well who have all come out and reassured their citizens about the safety of the astra zeneca vaccine and didn't just join a year in the u.k. has the u.k. government weighed in on this at all because the the astra zeneca vaccine really as been fueling the u.k.'s enormously successful vaccination campaign given they rely so heavily on this. they've waited us all when the developments. well the medicine regulator here has taken very much the same line particularly it's a big issue for the u.k. this is hailed as a u.k. major vaccine if you like manufactured by a u.k. based pharmaceutical company created by british scientists at oxford university and as you say forming the cornerstone of the father a successful vaccine rolled out in the u.k. 11000000 of those 17000000 doses have been given out here again as i said the medicines regulator here very keen as are all of them to try and damp down. any possibility of panic spreading throughout the vaccine program making the point again that this is safe as far as they're concerned it see no evidence of a link people should continue to have confidence in this vaccine and continue to take it out. of their prayers the very latest live from london jonah thank you. at least 4 more people have been killed during and process in myanmar earlier the acting leader of myanmar as i said civilian government urged supporters to keep up the pressure on magenta tony chang reports. defiant protesters again marched through the streets of mandalay on sunday in strong voice and in large numbers they were clearly on by the violence of the day before that's when the security services shot dead at least 6 people in a crackdown in myanmar 2nd city and injured many more but with the death toll rising a call for revolution from the former vice president now leading a civilian administration in hiding. this is the darkest moment of the nation and the moment when the dawn is close this is the time for us citizens to test their resistance against the dark moments speaking of a new federal democracy the message was clearly aimed at bringing diverse ethnic groups together to overcome the army and their coup. when forming a resistance unity plays a vital role despite our differences in the past this is the time we must grip our hands together to end the dictatorship for good. these diverse ethnic groups are scattered across myanmar's borderlands divided they don't represent a significant threat to the military who've been fighting them for decades united they could be a considerable obstacle. but there's long been distrust between these groups and the n l d the national league for democracy bringing them together would be no small task. in peaceful defiance protesters break the curfew to honor the dead in candlelit vigils across the country. we come out on the street to show that we are against military dictatorship by breaking the curfew order imposed by do. reveal continue fighting but as the military continues with its brutal tactics on the streets calls for a revolution that's not so peaceful may gain increasing support tony ching al-jazeera . a british iranian woman detained in iran since 2016 has appeared in courts less than is ago radcliffe is facing a new charge of propaganda against the system where she was released from detention just a week ago after serving 5 years for a separate conviction for human rights charity has written to the u.k. government saying zakaria ratcliffe needs urgent treatments for her mental health well in a blunt statement the u.k. foreign minister dominic rob says it is unacceptable and unjustifiable as iran has chosen to continue with the 2nd holy arbitrary case against nazanin zakaria ratcliffe the arena and government has deliberately put her through a cruel and inhumane ordeal nazanin must be allowed to return to her family in the u.k. without further delay. let's take you back go to our top story arlen suspending use of the astra zeneca covert 1000 vaccine at all to dominic wilkinson is director of medical ethics at the university of oxford center for practical ethics and joins us now from oxford thank you so much for joining us here on al-jazeera to discuss this i guess the 1st question is a many of our viewers and listeners will want to know this is this astra zeneca vaccine safe. well i think the base statements that we have from the very large trials that the specs you know and others of being true is that the vaccine is highly and is say like many neck scenes and many treatments after the vaccine is being used in a wider population sometimes there are a range of problems that come up and there's a very important to know about what we don't know at this stage is whether these reports of blood clots and just the blood clots that we would expect to see naturally in the population or whether there's an increased rates because of the fact and so if. if if this says i said an abundance of caution which is what the irish medical authorities are saying that they're suspending this at how should people who are in countries where it has been authorized and it's being bold isom thank you of course about the u.k. but other countries as well i mean why should people be taking this needs well i think. it's important to look at the based information that's available at this stage that the world health organization and and the respect of the authorities are saying. that those knowing creased risk of who are in believes and. even if there is somewhat of an increased risk for most people the risk of code that is going to be prime greater than the potential smooth increased risk of of pulmonary embolus we're all at risk of pulmonary embolus or blood clots all the time there's about a one in a 1000 chance the year of getting of blood clots in the lungs and if that were increased by a small amounts that would be something important to know about this scene but we do know this vaccine reduces to a very significant degree the risk of hospitalization and rico that and that for many people is going to be a much bigger risk do you think this is an overreaction on the parts of. the medical agencies and for example norway iceland arland do you think they're panicking by recommending but the fact single at the start i think they recognize even that public confidence in vaccine safety is really important and of course if they ignore information they threaten public confidence if they overreact they also threaten public confidence i don't have a sister the information that they do and so i don't know whether this is an overreaction it's important to be cautious but it's also important that we get people vaccinated as as soon as possible so that we can bring this pandemic to an end absolutely but many people are nervous about taking any vaccine in the 1st instance and i with this news that the astra zeneca vaccine has been held and suspended in several countries what would you recommend people do if they are offered and astra zeneca vaccine. well it personally i would i would take the vaccine i think the large trials show that if you have these banks in your less likely to go into hospital 'd your list likely to die from it and that's a much bigger risk than getting. theoretical increases in your risk of blood clots ok dominic wilkinson joining us from oxford thank you so much for bringing your thoughts and expertise to our viewers at al-jazeera. give you a quick carol look at some of what's coming ahead this hour we'll look at why bolivia's former interim president's been arrested over the political crisis in 2019 pass. finding ways to perform high musicians in new york are playing it safe during the

her facing prosecution and the loss of her british citizenship that would be 10 years ago this month when protests began in syria that would descend into civil war more than 13000000 people are either displaced within the country or sheltering a broad's many are in camps in lebanon's bekaa valley from where saina hotter reports. in the midst of war a generation grew up in exile at least 1000000 children have been born since 2011 when syria's peaceful uprising began before it turned into war home for many has been informal counts like this in neighboring countries in lebanon's bekaa valley life has been one of poverty and uncertainty that actual there are around 200 children under the age of 10 in this camp boys and girls whose lives have been destroyed their future is nothing. more than 13000000 syrians that's half the pre-war population remain displaced inside and outside the country nearly 900000 are registered in lebanon the highest number in the world relative to its population and as the conflict enters its 2nd decade with no political settlement in sight there could be further displacement. at least. i. drive which is actually. syria's economy is collapsing and international aid organizations are warning it is pushing millions deeper into poverty many are jobless and hungry the united nations says 60 percent or $12400000.00 syrians don't have regular access to enough food. but economic uncertainty is not the only challenge there are those who fear for their safety in the absence of a political settlement some are vulnerable where they are and need protection like resettling them in a safe country. about 5 170000. there are other only 9300 refugees for this. country and this is a very large number considering that. despite the battlefield being largely quiet for a year aid agencies say the daily suffering of syrians is worse than it has been at nearly any point throughout the conflict and the hardship has not stopped at syria's borders that hired me for the care our life has been reduced to this in syria they waiting for a box of aid and here we're waiting for our box of aid we lost hope of going back. for those who have already lost so much it may be a long wait for political change in damascus or for humanitarian conditions to improve to allow them to return home. because valley eastern lebanon the leader of the the european

places the figures were high as for the youngest respondents with 97 percent of 18 to 24 year olds experiencing sexual harassment in public and despite all that many women didn't think it was worth reporting incidents noted 95 percent of the respondents said that across the spectrum of incidents that experience they had not reported or the incidents that they'd been through and when it happened

as we continue to mourn her we must press ahead to pass meaningful police reform in congress i remain committed to signing a landmark reform bill into law. the reform goal is still being discussed in congress but has substantial opposition from republican members in particular mike hanna al-jazeera washington sam for a quick check on the weather his efforts in. however that was say some violent storms into the u.s. recently this big bowls of cloud brought some very heavy rainfall into parts of utah into parts of colorado as well as and a number of tornadoes as well on this cold front as it made its way across the deep south that's going to continue pushing some very heavy rain a severe storm still likely a possibility of a few more tornadoes as we go on through monday it is a weakening feature but it's there nevertheless snow still out across the northern flank of that system monday into tuesday it topples a little ace woods will see some what weather coming through here in the city still seeing some heavier pulses of friends that system as he makes his way in up to us and all things not particularly warm new york just 3 celsius terrans out about 3 celsius as well as is the case

after they were excluded from trade deals between the u.k. and the e.u. the british overseas territory want reports of any commercial tax or customs agreements and their stories a ball reports argentina's government seize an opportunity. the falklands islands in the southern atlantic also known as melina's for people in latin america are considered part of the overseas territories of the united kingdom but 2 days after finalizing the brics it agreement the european union and oust that it would stop recognizing overseas territories under british rule and the benefits that came along the decision came as a surprise for residents of the islands of the other surgeries were allowed to vote in the referendum even though. we respect that decision after it was quite a bit of a shock i think when the when the result. hadn't really expected that relationship changed that next piece of the puzzle does need to be addressed because. you need a relationship at the cape. as well 4 years industries here have benefited from being a member state until now jane wallace is concerned about what's coming next i find it very concerning that the situation is that at the moment any fish or squid the ricks port in europe are trucked a tariff of between 6 and 18 percent i mean to give you an idea in terms of the conservative view based on our recent financial performance that 6 percent represents 30 percent on average of our profits over the last 5 years so as extremely disturbing the decision by the e.u.'s perceived as a victory for argentina which has been demanding before cannes or maybe now silence the south georgia and the south sandwich islands belongs to them. the thought printed dispute over the islands led to a war between britain and argentina in 1982 it lasted for 74 days and left almost 1000 that in spite of losing the war argentina continues to demand that the islands are part of their territory inherited from the spanish colonial wars. females who is in charge of the mill venus issue in argentina says he's government is going to continue pushing for a negotiation for the most rudimentary we're still in the early stages of the brics it but europe has signaled a change in its position on the islands there was a similar case of the un when the child was archipelago the u.k. lost 114-2686 months to return the island to marie shifts the only e.u. country to vote for the u.k. was hungry. on the islands argentina's ambitions are perceived as a threat that's why people here are hoping their needs from now on one being annoyed. when a site is. much more still to come on this new sir including the elections looming far right parties in them that the loans capitalize on lockdown and anger also point germany's busy election years opening with a tough test for angle americans party. and of this english going 1st just one step away from his 1st p.g.a. title in over a decade we'll have all the action from the players' championship coming up in sports. and then i would point out more is very much our culture has been very harmful to the economy and the lives of many people on challenging traditional attitudes how narrowing the gender gap is helping women in whom the camargue was escape poverty and focus that we're trying to break these barriers of machismo by giving women access to resources need to women leading the way. women make change on al-jazeera. just news as it breaks with schools continuously being targeted just pressured in northern part of nigeria very obvious that the region to translate highest rates of poverty before it will fall behind with detail coverage of this scenario the inoculation campaign was temporarily suspended because there weren't enough taxi from around the world these volunteers well be routinely tested instead they'll be getting regular blood samples. all. this is just. a quick reminder of the top stories this hour arlen's has become the latest country to suspend use of the astra zeneca cope with 19 vaccine officials made the call after norway's health authorities concerned about blood clots at least 4 more protesters have been killed during and c.q. demonstrations in myanmar earlier the action leader of. government urged protesters to keep up the pressure on the. police in london have been criticized over the handling of an unofficial vigil honoring a woman. several women and the mayor of london called the police response unacceptable. that protesters people rather are gathering in the netherlands for another protest against coronavirus restrictions huge numbers are already out in the hague as you can see from these live pictures behind the demonstration a rally support ahead over lections on where to stay well let's get more now from stat fastened she's live from the hague where protesters are already gathering in significant numbers. absolutely police only has allowed to 200 protesters here today they have tried to stop others from coming and that actually led to a short clash but then they sort of gave up but now hundreds and hundreds of more people are gathering here in the hague to protest against the lockdown there has been increasing frustration here in the netherlands about this lockdown especially about the nighttime curfew of 9 pm you can see here concerned citizens who are worried that their businesses are going bankrupt but also. and also people from the far right are basically tapping into these sentiments it's 3 days before the parliamentary elections here in the netherlands and you can actually see. 2 things happening prime minister mark rowsthorn and his conservative liberal party is really gaining also from this so-called within that make because it seems many people don't want change and they trust him as the manager who can take the people here through this crisis but on the other hand you get actually see the far right parties really also gaining support and we were following one of them it's a forum for democracy it's the only party actually complaining during this girl time and we saw them and i watched them during a campaign rally in the east of the country. and of her friends who have remarked that his style has been compared with former us president donald trump ignoring covert restrictions the leader of the anti immigration populist party. is trying to attract voters by calling covert 19 a common flu and blaming international conspiracies for being behind the pandemic. under-served people at the moment are in the hospital right suffering from corona many people in an island have died more than 15000 so it's a serious issue here that's a normal number for a series flu we've had that for thousands of years everyone does have complained to hospitals are full they can't cope with the workflow. well those stories are highly disputed would as part of became the largest just 2 years ago but fell apart after racist anti-semitic messages will make public now is stepping in to a growing sentiment against a lockdown with an american style campaign based on conspiracy theories and the tax on the media. sentiment in the netherlands against lockdowns has grown especially after a nighttime curfew was introduced in january riots broke out in several cities and covert testing facilities were attacked far right parties like form for democracy appeared to be benefiting from this anger economy and the stuff i can go anywhere i want to and even if i didn't go out i should have freedom that has been taken away from us and that is horrible. i like what he says about freedom i want schools to reopen i'm a 1st year student and i can barely follow my studies because it's all online license. deaths party is falling around 3 percent of the vote another anti immigration party the freedom party of wilderness is predicted to win around 20 percent and become the 2nd largest like it did 4 years ago the 1st time it's not about immigration or islam it's about corona yeah it is and i will take a. responsible viewed as well as a people because we're really in for. public health as well and making that a big issue not a problem for you that's not about immigration well if you look at the polls it's not i think a responsible few that we will benefit from it but it's not it's not like you want to benefit from a pandemic i'm just doing my job his chances to become part of the government are slim since nobody wants to govern with him because of his views on immigration and islam conversant writer of a book about willis says that even though around one 5th of the dutch electorate voted for far right parties their influence remains limited in the netherlands i sometimes call this the middle finger vote so people who stick your middle finger to the political establishment and want to shock the establishment and how can you shocked us by choosing somebody who is always shocking. their politicians in the debates and that is what will this does the main question is how successful a complete soley based on covert restrictions will be and many in the netherlands are fed up there's also a large group to take the fight against a virus seriously. large banners here for form for democracy as well at this rally and as you can probably see there's no social distancing here at all and also nobody is wearing any mask it's going to be a question what police will do there's a large police force out here and also 3 days before the elections it's the infractions are up again the largest group of infractions number of infections since january or counted yesterday so there's also some concern although they have taken a lot of matches to make these elections as safe as possible about what the risk will be on wednesday when the elections will take place. rather live from the hague step thank you very much indeed. people's frustrations with locked and sand restrictions is colliding with government's efforts to stop breaks or at least bring them under control our police in brazil stormed this south polo nightclub where 600 people were crowded into a windowless room more people died from corbin 1000 in the past week in brazil than any other country u.s. university students are enjoying spring break in coastal cities like miami but many have ignored compulsory rules to wear masks and there are no such restrictions in texas where the government has declared masks and limits on gatherings to be no longer necessary president joe biden has described this as a big mistake liz let's explore this a bit further with psychologist katherine harris c. she joins us now from cork in arlen's it's great to have you with us on the news hour it's been iran's a year alone for the people have been 1st the 1st taste of what if you like and people start saying quite rigidly at the starts given that we're now a year on i mean can you blame people for wanting to get out and see their friends and live a little. you know i think there are so many factors that are combining to contribute to many people experiencing grace frustration so in the very early days the so new and there were so many terrifying scenes coincidence and other countries that people many people were able to easily buy into the restrictions and is particularly because we always feel these restrictions were for short periods however now we are one year on and people's motivation is flagging people's belief is flying and i think one of the biggest issues is that there is no end in sight there is no if i just hold on for one more week one more month will or season and then life can return to normal so because there is no end in sight that is greatly country missing 2 peoples that teach and people's desire to reengage with normal life have all their normal support structures back and that's and that's very understandable but it seems like some people are slipping too far in the opposite direction we've just been showing our viewers pictures of hundreds of people cramped and saw an underground illegal dance party which you know would be dangerous in the best of times let alone in the middle of a global pandemic how do you explain this rebinds in the opposite direction to be quite dangerous conditions. well if you look at spring break last year there were similar scenes then and it's important to look at the age profiles of people who are in g. change in these activities so for a young people afraid young adults and adolescents they are not impacted by it cools it in the same way so the risk for them is you know are there also at a time in their lives for and they are highly motivated by being together gathering together in g. string in now collectively seems so you've got the company of lower risk higher now t.c. feeling at last this behavior on top of that hit the crisis city that many of us are experiencing so on the outside it seems crazy but for the people in there it appears very logical to them they have it that he reset the risk and determines that that reward which weighs that risk for them do you think it's unreasonable for governments to expect people to lock themselves up at home for these extended periods of time. i think that's an extremely difficult question to answer i think that there are huge unintended consequences for this there is a very significant mental health intact we've got huge increases in anxiety in disorders and just ordinary loneliness so we have to weigh everything and and i think that the governments and are using the best available science to make these decisions however nobody has all of the answers they are making i suppose their best guess as to trying to weigh and the whole of the public's health and i don't think it's neither reasonable not only reasonable is just their best guess as to how to keep people safe i think it's much more helpful to focus on how we can engage in sex care how we can continue to have social contact by maintaining sissoko distance and really make sure that the public shuts message your own house he care such really take care of your mental and physical health in this time so that people can insure so that people can sustain this effort for islam as it's needed to get this under control ok i've very difficult situation and days but we're grateful to you catherine how safe of a as your analysis and your expertise thank you thank you. germany's busy election year is opening with a tough pandemic tests for the party of chancellor angela merkel voters are choosing new regional legislatures in virgin births that's seen as an economic paradise in southwestern germany and in neighboring iran felts polls point to weak results for america's christian democratic union 6 months before a national votes that will determine who succeeds or well let's get more from dominic came he joins us now from carolyn dominic he is unusual that we tend to talk about these reach you know actions but they are quite significant so the not just talk a story the significance of this was. the point to make 1st of all is that it's a test for all the main political parties in germany specifically in these 2 states because the christian democratic union does not govern at all has no presence whatsoever in the government of the state of ohio and 1st the rhineland paletta nates to cause in english and it only has the c.d.u. only has a junior role in the coalition that governs environ virgin barrack the green party governs there so this is a test for all the big parties now the other thing to say is that in those 2 states you have 2 prime ministers who are particularly prominent whose prominence transcends the regional level who have taken on a national significance in this year of pandemic that revolving going through remember that in germany in the federal structure the prime ministers of the states well they play an important role nationally every month or so there is a conference that decides what happens in terms of the corona measures that are in place and each prime minister has an important role in voting through what can be agreed upon and what can't that's why these people being elected today are very important and in each state you have a competitive race but it is worth repeating that the christian democratic union does not or certainly not in the last 10 years has not done particularly well in these 2 states which explains why they haven't really had a powerful role in government and there's one much more thought to throw into this equation that there has been a bit of a scandal that has grown up over the course of the past few weeks regarding individual members of the federal parliament here in berlin from the christian democratic union and from the christian social union it's prevaricated conservative allies of angle americal regarding mosques for covert and deals that have been done or may not have been done regarding these individual members a scandal that has grown up around them the question will be whether that scandal is enough in the minds of voters to sway how they cast their ballots today ok dominic a there live from berlin dominic
