Terminally ill children aged 12 becoming legal in the netherlands the government by new rules to end them bearable and some. Children will feel pressured to. Allow people to kill them. That is. Kind of cases of patients who are suffering so much suffering. Every. Morning welcome this is. It is resurgent in europe with the record infection rates registered across the continent france spain the u. K. Now have a case loads and seen in the spring and there is little political unity on how to handle this crisis more his speech. Cases of coronavirus skyrocket across europe e. U. Leaders are bringing back hard core restrictions and we have made a decision to impose a curfew it will be in force in the paris region and 8 other french cities in the 2nd situation over the bend them it is serious because we record rising infection numbers almost everywhere the reason is that fear is a 2nd Autumn Winter wave of the virus would be worse than the 1st appear to be coming true back in march france was in lockdown with around 7 and a half 1000 daily cases the latest figures show that is on high and now the same picture is repeated in spain and in the u. K. While all those countries were in lockdown in the spring now politicians are trying to strike a balance between safety and personal freedom for many the potential economic damage of another lockdown outweighs concerns of a public health. And. Now. Since the virus was 1st detected in europe Different Countries of opted for different tactics the swedish government went for a hands off approach relying on people following precautions without them having to be made rules that worked at least for a while but now restrictions are in place in sweden as well the disjointed approach among Member States has caused public frustration a poll of e. U. Citizens found that just over half of french people counsel to their walls unity in the block when it came to tackling coronavirus however 60 percent of italians and almost 3 quarters of those here in germany. For the approach lacked solidarity one thing that was agreed upon this week was a unified set of travel rules for the European Union we welcome the agreement reached today by the Member States on uy coordination of measures restricting Free Movement related to the coronavirus pandemic it will have a single set of colors to categorize the different regions based on the risk with a single set of rules to follow so citizens can see more clearly what the situation is the german chancellor says that means to be more cooperation across europe to help calm attain a virus that doesnt care whether its in brussels bremen. We have also experienced that European Corporation is not limitless lee resilient i tell you these critically especially in the beginning of the again here platinum event youre suspecting that we focus with the watch on the problem of our own country and this experience once again makes it clear that we need each other we need close european cooperation in order to must agree challenges which can only be achieved together with the citizens and not working above their heads so far that unified approach to tackling cove it has been lacking from european leaders peter all of our r. T. Marcela for other than normally a swedish epidemiologist says that striking the right balance between saving lives and saving the economy is a real conundrum. If you are in a bit if you dont you are facing with funding the 1st thing you have to see is where there there are groups where it goes up and freeze so it does not help that they say well that was a broad and from long before it should have been taken into account in deploying of this strategy to face the pandemic that was not the done so this is this year i dunno. Over incapacity unless you do. I dont see a purpose but your brain or at least are others you know where your priorities are not to save the life of the it will be with your prayer to start to save the economy or even thinking ok we have it most economy doing this pandemic and the country would look down that will then we suffered much more so were going to have a better position than they have been if you have those ideas you have this months edition of course youre going to sacrifice the. But that it goes against the human rights. The u. K. Governments Coronavirus Response is facing stiff resistance so authorities in the northeast are infection rates are highest have rejected plans to place the toughest of 3 levels of restrictions on the region the mayor of Greater Manchester accuses number turn of treating the north as canaries in the coal mine is more his art is easily. The mayor of manchester has been speaking today and hes been lashing out at the governments attempts to implement this socalled 3 year to system on certain parts of the u. K. Or at least putting certain parts of the country into those higher brackets and mr burnham saying that those parts of the country suffered enough economically there are certain sectors of the economy that have suffered enough economically throughout this crisis and if the government is going to pull these measures out then they have to extend some type of Financial Support to those regions last night the deputy chief medical officer told great amongst the leaders to bring the infection rates down any regional lock down would require widespread closures way beyond pulps to stand any real chance of working and that would have to be done in tandem with all the neighboring regions and even then it would not be certain to work but heres the point the government is not giving City Regional city regions like ours and the Liverpool City Region the necessary financial backing full full lock downs of that kind that is why we have unanimously opposed the governments plans for tier 3 they are flawed and unfair. Now there are other leaders in the northeast of the Country Council leaders who have also lashed out at places like sunderland and you cause that against these government measures here in the capital london we are expecting to go into the height from saturday all the words on the streets of the city there are mixed feelings as to whether that is the right way forward think its kind of been thrown a lot of people people werent expecting it necessarily but it seems like its the logical next step i would prefer a short shot down farther than something that we just dont know when it might. Just keep rolling right back look at the damage thats been doing to the economy tier 2 tier 3 everyone suffering now weve reached a point where this there doesnt seem to be any light at the end of the tunnel i take the view that the this is the reaction to this disease as. More unfortunate and terrible it is being grossly exaggerated and we need to. Try and regain normality soon as possible and again i feel whatever is going to. Spread is a good thing i think it probably needed to happen a while ago maybe we would have had to do it a bit less dissin know it was fairly its gone forever and i know its in the Public Interest and we should be safe but. I dont know im really tired of my work and everything just being disrupted all the time you do we have to do it. Were in this for the long term. Us republicans are crying foul have the social media giants banned a damning article on president ial candidate joe biden and his sons business dealings twitter and facebook who claim to be preventing misinformation could now be subpoenaed it comes with the election just weeks away and hes getting more pinpricks of the story. The election is just 3 weeks out and the New York Post the daily conservative tabloid of new york city says it has a bombshell and theyve allegedly got emails from joe biden and his family now the emails are said to have come from a laptop that was left behind at a Computer Repair shop in delaware there are some images of joe bidens son hunter smoking crack and an alleged sex tape the emails show hunter biden introducing his father joe biden and the Vice President to the board of barista a natural gas giant from ukraine that actually paid hunter biden 50000. 00 a month to sit on its board did home to thank you for inviting me to d. C. And giving an opportunity to meet your father and spend some time together its really an honor and pleasure critics say this proves that joe biden when he was Vice President knew about his sons business deals in ukraine and helped to the republicans see this is damaging the Biden Campaign team of course they didnt i everything so why has this story gotten so big well in social media got involved. Well they will intentionally not link to the New York Post i want to be clear that this story is eligible to be fact checked by facebooks 3rd Party Fact Checking partners in the meantime we are reducing its distribution on our platform on facebook you couldnt even share this story in a direct private message it was blacked out gone twitter even shut down the New York Post account and the account of the White House Press secretary when she tried to share a screenshot so many this looks a lot like tech giants meddling in american politics so how did twitter explain it. The paulson established in 2018 perhaps to use of our service to distribute content obtained without authorization well thats interesting because the recent story from the New York Times similarly unconfirmed about Donald Trumps tax returns which was based on personal data that was somehow collected which the New York Times never bothered to explain where they got it from that story its still up on both platforms so cue the republicans with biden today they take negative posts down own those before they even go up there trying to protect him they tried to protect by the tech monopolies that control American Media feared this story might hurt that candidate when they favor this is election interference in the attempt to rig an election which is what were seeing here by monopolies is unprecedented in American History now twitter says this is all just a big miscommunication well the damage has already been done the story of joe biden and his son and their business dealings is probably not going to have a big impact on the Election Results however the move by the tech giants to censure it after theyve already had a long history of anticonservative bias that very well could. R. T. New york. Now a couple of hours ago twitter. Its that it will revise this hacked materials policy it will now label hat tweets instead of blocking them however the New York Post article will remain blocked as it displays images containing private information earlier we discussed the story with Public Policy professor max abrams who says that the tech giants are political activists both twitter and facebook are very clearly in the biden camp and so this bombshell story by the New York Post is damaging to joe biden and so both twitter and facebook for political reasons are trying to restrict your viewership of this incriminating information of course the social media platforms cant come out and say that explicitly they cant say that were in cahoots with you know the biden team and we didnt like it for political reasons it reasons instead they need to make up other reasons for restricting viewership what is clear is that this was a very pro biden move. The dutch government has approved plans to allow the euthanasia of terminally ill children aged between one and 12 the Research Shows theres a need for the possibility of active life term an asian among doctors and parents of terminally ill children who are suffering hopelessly and im bearable and will die in the foreseeable future. Current dutch law permits euthanasia for babies under one year and children older than 12 consent from parents is mandatory after children over 16 its sufficient for them to notify their decision the new rules which have triggered a public debate but also require parental consent and the approval of at least 2 doctors voluntary child euthanasia is being allowed in the netherlands is 2014 while for adults it was legalised almost 2 decades ago lassies euthanasia deaths account for 4 percent of total number in the netherlands out of over 6000 cases the majority were for terminally medical conditions weve put the governments latest initiative up for debate to india had a Public Policy of Christian Concern and robert john a care executive director of the will foundation of the right to die associations. The things that difficult to find one is how long someones got to live and the other is how unbearable the suffering really is and both of those things get watered down over time or in oregon for example terminally ill has been watered down to you know you require some medical treatment to sustain your life which means even diabetes is classified as terminally ill where people can live for decades with diabetes this is what essentially did it on the exact same results you know rounds the definitions of what causes what is terminally ill what is unbearable it all is on the thing and the fact they will thing it down now to children as well so is exactly the slippery slope that happens when you legalize euthanasia in this kind of way its absolutely nonsense what you say it autumn patient with having diabetes will not be helped in his suicide just because he has to die. If there is a diabetes is it by suffering but its certainly not the reason and this is to wait. A post a preachin is talking about. I think even the suggestion to Young Children maybe dying is the right option its just going to very very very disturbing for their children and and just provoke anxiety i think children what you have what will happen here is children will feel pressured to die pressured to allow people to kill them what an awful thought that is and then parents as well feeling pressured to kill their children or allow their children to be killed i think if you dont want to have euthanasia youre not going to ask for it you wont get it will get absolutely Perfect Health care in the netherlands and in oregon it is nonsense to say that it is suggested to patients that they should make a choice for death it is not one of the nicest thing for a doctor to do to help his patient die but sometimes its the only way out its not monsters at all are many reported cases where patients have felt pressured you know because doctors have said you know we cant maybe we cant treat you for this and so you should think about euthanasia obvious thought about euthanasia and dots of repeatedly said that to patients and they felt the pressure of it. I have never read what you said it is still something you think or you believe which is happening and maybe there have been cases where this has happened i must say that we are sacred but it is certainly not the general our our always practice in the netherlands how with this practiced in oregon how to practice in belgium in luxembourg and canada and right now i mean what we found consistently in surveys of doctors is that people who are actually policy of cat doctors do not support euthanasia theyre the ones who know that pain can be alleviated euthanasia is is not the right way around its not everyone agrees that this is a wrong thing to do to terminate life in this kind of way you are perseverant in saying something which is not right if there are situation to alleviate pain by Palliative Care how doctors do that but we are talking in this kind of cases of patients who are suffering so much where the suffering can not be alleviated. It is much more humane to help somebody die peacefully by yes of course by the hands of a doctor by giving medication. India is to stop posting covidien notices on homes over concerns that its thing when ties of people more nuts to this break.

Welcome back germany has been demanding answers from russia over the alleged poisoning of opposition figure Alexei Navalny but apparently its berlin itself thats reluctant to cooperate by could september russian lawmakers wrote to the german parliaments president inviting their counterparts to Work Together on the case some german m. P. s it out livid that they were never even informed of the off the members of the bundestag dr miller and hurt are stunned how in the highly tense situation of german russian relations which urgently needs dialogue russian offers for talks and requests for help are so brusquely rejected by the german side. Well later some politicians in berlin dismiss the proposal as a cheap trick to influence german or make it in an open letter to the bundestag russian lawmakers offer to establish a joint working group they are theres still money to carry out an independent investigation into the case and engage with russia on the matter earlier moscow was repeatedly rebuked by the e. U. For failing to provide a credible explanation of the incident back in august opposition figure in a valley fell ill during a flight from siberia on route to moscow european laboratories later claimed he was poisoned with a nerve agent from the novacek group the signatories of the letter say it was deliberately ignored. And why the buddhist president has decided to ignore a letter in my opinion he had received a command to do so otherwise i cant explain it this all undermines the deputys independence. Meanwhile a deputy from the right wing alternative in Germany Party rubbish learned urged its head of going schober not to leave the russian letter and answered as well as to consider moscows earlier multiple requests seeking Legal Assistance over the novelli case is what he had to say i hope that mr so.

New delhi authorities have decided to stop putting notices outside homes of people who are coping 1000 positive thats after officials admitted the practice does lead to stigmatization there is a stigma with the coronavirus disease and posters outside the house amplify that by doing away with this we are aiming at increased testing we want more people to get themselves tested without thinking of stigmas. Well the homes of those infected with covert have been marked since the 1st days of the pandemic in india and people say theyve been discriminated against even after recovering on consequence of that has been that people with symptoms of avoided getting tested for fear of being stigmatized and now only delhi and several other regions have decided to stop issuing the notices theyre still used in other parts of the country we spoke to dr so many of us rajkumar who says that the policy was badly thought out from the start but. It was the usual practice for people who were returning from Foreign Countries well how did recent history of the late arrival slowly mandate 3. Days to return from a foreign country turned north because people. Could be forced if you these things actually increase the stigma related to the people who guard the initiating fiction you know believe in a city or in a street bear look dont up on in some states they have even lake end up barricaded.
