Its been decades since the fall of spains fascist regime, but old wounds still havent healed on the bottom is pretty famous because for me, from an old feed, a market economy. Suppose you mean in the us at the source me note of that i mentioned i see in question which we know of newborn babies were torn from their mothers and given away and forced adoption. But only to this day mothers still search for grown children while looking in hope for their birth parents. This is boom bust the one business show you cant afford to miss unsurmountable in washington coming out as promised by their hossam and its emergency use application for over 19 vaccines to the food and Drug Administration. A process that could, start limited 1st shot as early as next month. And u. S. , treasury secretary steven chu and announced cut off for the federal reserves Lending Program and hopes to restart stimulus talks, and hopefully will resume negotiations. To see i stand by, i have a lot to get through to get started. Pharmaceutical giant pfizer is filing for emergency authorization of its coronavirus exene in the united states. The company is one of many working to fight the spread of cove 19. And as alex mcgill of its reports, it is one of a few front runners that may help the pandemic. The bottles are full and ready to go. Once given the green light, pfizer says that it could start shipping out its Coronavirus Vaccine within a couple of hours. If the value we have already produced, more than 20000000 doses in our warehouses and to continue as a state producing more and more the Company Promises to have 50000000 doses ready for distribution by the end of this year. And estimates that it will produce 1300000000 doses of the vaccine by the end of 2021. However, there is one major hurdle standing in the way that government approval in the us. That means getting the thumbs up from the food and Drug Administration and considering the fact that the vaccine is relatively new and has not had the time to pass the usual scrutiny. Pfizer and its german partner beyond tech are asking for emergency approval to get it out there fast. Emergency use authorization or new way, isnt much different. Standard only requires that a product may be a factor. And that f. D. A. Performs an assessment in the emergency of the available data and sounds well, we think its noncontentious benefits outweigh the noncontentious, the f. D. A. Has emergency use of authorization is intended for Public Health emergencies. Arguably, such as the corona virus, according to the Us Government approval of the vaccine, is expected in the 1st half of december, and advance trial which involved 41000 people worldwide showed that the pfizer beyond tech vaccine protects 94 percent of adults over 65, with some reporting minor side effects, other stats showed as 90 percent effective. Either way, a good place to be with the front runners in the copen 1000 vaccine race, such as moderna and rochelle. Sputnik be created by the gamma lay a center. But there are no claims that its covered 1000 vaccine is 95 percent effective. While recent studies show that sputnik v. Is 92 percent effective visor hopes to follow in the footsteps of drug maker eli lilly, which was granted emergency use authorization for a drug that has the potential to reduce Recovery Time for those infected with the coronavirus. As for covert 1000 vaccines tests it all, one big question remains. That is, how long do the vaccines remain effective . Is that a shot in the arm for life, or does it lose its coronavirus fighting power after just a few weeks or months . The challenge is going to be that gain, it may only be, you know, 2 to 4 months of experience. So were not going to know that your introduction. Although most employers once occur in a relatively short period that it wants nation, we move to help that long fall on safety. As it stands, recipients of the Pfizer Vaccine will need 2 doses taken 3 weeks apart. The u. K. Has preordered 40000000. 00 doses and hopes to receive 10000000. 00 by the end of this year. The European Union is looking at authorizing the pfizer, as well as the moderna anti corona virus vaccines for conditional marketing by the end of december as well. It is likely that the initial doses will be distributed to 1st responders and people in high risk groups for boom bust. Im alex, my limits are more. We welcome contributor to americas lawyer, molly barrows . Molly, good to see you. We just heard of alexs piece that the vaccine could be available to frontline workers as early as december. Thats what were talking that weeks away. What about the general public . Theres some talk that maybe by next year meant to late next year. Yes, so like you said, and alexs report as well as those 1st responders that are going to get the 1st doses that arrive in, pfizer says theyre well on their way if the f. D. A. Approves that to providing that. So as soon as i think that those 1st responders get their doses in, theyre going to start moving towards the public. So hopefully as early as the beginning of next year, we may see the public start to receive some of those doses as well. And again, theres a number of that scenes lining up waiting to get on the market that they say theyre in the final stages of testing. Pfizer is in the lead right now. Youve got madonna coming up close behind that youve also got astra, zeneca and johnson. And johnson close behind. So theres a few differences between some of these vaccines, but hopefully the public at large will also be able to take advantage of these millions of doses that are on standby once the f. D. A. Approves them. Well, with the upcoming holidays is going to slow the process. How long will it be before the f. D. A. Actually review the documents . Approve them and then the steps Going Forward from there. Right. I know, and it seems like its so subjective sometimes with the f. D. A. , but, you know, we have the cases that are getting worse than ever. The numbers are climbing continually. You have new york which shut down public schools. And of course, were seeing increased hospitalizations around the country, so the f. D. A. Knows that this needs to happen, that finding an effective vaccine that the public is actually willing to use is an important part of controlling the coronavirus epidemic in the pandemic of coban 1000. 00. So theres a committee that is reportedly going to meet sometime around the 1st before the 2nd week of december. And depending on what comes out of that advisory committee, you could see f. D. A. Approval as you know, like what alex said earlier as mid december, possibly late december. And then youve got other vaccines that are lining up also in late stage approval for testing if you will. And theyre going to be wanting to line up and get that f. D. A. Approval right after pfizer does as well. If it does happen. And a lot of companies, much like you been mentioning, youre mentioning that there are competing to develop a vaccine right now, really is one favored over another. We did see a recent gallup poll that showed the efficacy did. Or at least because the focus he did increase her to over 90 percent, even though its a new technology. Still people wanting to go and get the vaccine or volunteer to actually have the vaccine given to them. It only went up by 8 percent and only 50 percent of americans are willing to line up and get it. I know thats so interesting, isnt it . And i think its because this is all so new though, they dont really know that, you know, theres this perception that this vaccine is being rushed if you will. I think people do want to effect of that same, but who wants to be the guinea pig right . So god bless those 1st responders that are going to get the 1st, those, those frontline workers rather that are those 1st doses. But, you know, i think what ive heard from some analysts, whether its financial perspective or, or just from public demand perspective, johnson and johnson, even though theyre in late stage testing, theyre, you know, theyre, a vaccine may not be approved for a little while after the others. But theres some speculation that once its out that it may surpass as far as demand goes, because it differs from the other 3 vaccines by astra zeneca, pfizer, moderna, they requiring 2 doses. Ultra cold storage, a couple of other hurdles to jump over, waiting. Those 2 doses, theres weeks in between the 1st dose and the 2nd. So people might be reluctant to go back for that 2nd one. Maybe they forget, maybe theyre unable to those ultra cold storage requirements. But the johnson and johnson one doesnt have those ultra cold storage requirements and they only have one dose. So that could affect cost. That could also affect whether or not people are willing to actually get the vaccine. So youre right, itll be interesting to see which, you know, pending f. D. A. Approval on all these vaccines once they are all out and hopefully effective. Which one will actually be more popular and what they will actually get the public to use. And if youll have the option of doing so much, like you said, johnson and johnson is only having one dose that might make it easier on the general public. And well see how many actually line up to get the vaccine contributed to americas lawyer. Molly barrows . Thank you for joining us today. Thank you, sarah. By positive covert 1000 vaccine news.

Us treasury secretary steven chu, chin is getting some heat after announcing plans to end some emergency fed funds, but nugent defended his decision to end these crisis lending tools in an interview with c. And b. C. Newton said it. We said these are emergency tools and when the emergency is over, lets put them away. He also said he plans to continue stimulus talks and negotiations with democrats in the coming weeks. For more on this, were joined by bill frist christie, treasury secretary, will essentially allow several of these emergency Lending Programs to expire on december 31st. What does this mean for businesses . Well basically the biggest loser over all of this are going to be the midsize businesses had that have just begun taking out loans and thats mainstream many facilities. So the terms of the facility had recently been amended to allow for smaller oh, about 100000 right now, and will likely be closed to new lending in just a couple short weeks. So this will dramatically reduce the Central Banks in philly to backstop the financial system. And basically try are only really on main street. So this is priced terminations kind of as emerged in the program and many argue that this is very premature. It basically ties the hands of the intermediate ministration and closes the door on very important liquidity options for businesses at a time when they really do need it most. So pretty much all the time, the financial conditions and remove the safety net from the markets at the wrong time when teachers are piling up, when things are getting much worse in the 2nd wave, so many gen or a new treasury secretary under the white, it could potentially decide to revive the emergency run program under a new agreement with that. But obviously this is an optimal as there will be reinstating something that was originally there are ready and there will likely be some shots to, i mean just system to restarting these programs. Well, christine, let me ask you this. When he was defending his move as well. Youre saying, he said, markets werent ready for this. But hes saying and many are saying that it could be almost a charitable move because they dont want to give these big businesses. The money that was set aside for that, but instead they want to help the smaller businesses or even like the airlines that need the help. Is that right . No, i mean its not right. Its actually more of a political move actually, because the republicans had earlier indicated that they were worried that the municipal letting facility and the mainstream money programs, what you just said, the programs that were dedicated towards Small Business is that they could be used by democrats in order to Pass Congress from republicans werent blocked additional federal government or to local governments and small, medium sized businesses. So rather than looking out for market interest as the war, arson to do, nation actions were more so related politics. And moreover, as i just mentioned, this means that the new i am in the station will have a tougher time in restarting the programs later, as new funds will need congressional authorization, which ultimately means more delays, more uncertainty over necessary support for the economy. And the Small Business, so basically congress and then move is basically like stripping the titanic of its lifeboats. Right. When things are starting to get really ugly, are strange. How can they get which all of these businesses are now being forced to use their hours or reduce capacity going to hard. And many, like you said, are saying that hes trying to, trying to block the democrats and from, from coming in, taking over whether or not hes going to work with whoever is incoming it remains to be, to be seen. But he also talked about getting together with democrats. I know hes, getting together with g. O. P. Leaders, u. S. , Senate Majority leader, Mitch Mcconnell is desperate as well to continue talks to pass stimulus. What is that going to look like if it even does pass before january . Well, i mean weve been hearing about some sort of stimulus package for more than a quarter now, so i dont know how much we can trust that we will get one in this upcoming week. So we start. So maybe next year, but i really dont think we can possibly expect something as soon as the next couple weeks. So when you gent and others, they have basically led as a trunk stimulus russians for months now. And they have expressed that they may be more open to a compromise all in the selection. And apparently they are mean not only their efforts in order to get something passed now that has pulled out like and basically crashed the helicopter. So the fact that is that lawmakers struggle to pass additional stimulus for months and theyve made very little progress. The last, really not like yours i was passed in march and pretty much all of it has to do, you know, over the course of the summer. So i dont know how to get anything by the end of the year that we pretty optimistic and with the way the Election Results have been going. Im not sure that the 2 parties are actually going to come together to the table to even have discussions or of of House Speaker nancy pelosi is even willing to sit down with them to get something done. While unfortunately, the American People are hurting and desperately hurting in the economy, boomed with cohost. Christine, as always, its a pleasure talking to you. Thank you for breaking this down for us. Time now for a quick break, but when we come back, that deadline is approaching to close deals with several countries before christmas. Coming up next, as we go to break here, the numbers out the postal the turtle during the vietnam war, u. S. Forces. There was a secret war and for years the American People did not know how much it is, especially heavily bombed country per capita in human history. Millions of unexploded bombs still in danger lives in this Small Agricultural country, jordyn wieber. There. Even today, kids in laos, fall victim to the bombs dropped decades ago. Is the us making amends for the tragedy in laos built to the people needed in that little land of mine . So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have. Its crazy. Let it be an arms race off and spearing Dramatic Development only. I dont see how that will be successful, very critical time to sit down and talk. Despite all the claims that could lead to enormous problems for u. K. Trade deals, the United Kingdom seems to be closing in on a series of deals with canada, australia, and the European Union. Joining us now to discuss is bill must cohost and board member with the British American business association. Hilary ford, which hilary . Lets start with you. It looks like the u. K. Deal with canada is all all but done and signed. What does this deal actually look like . A pleasure to be here with you again, sara. Yes, youre right. Just really basically this deal needs the ink to be on the paper. And this still is a global perspective too. And that sort of tactically, what it is globally, this is being crucial for boat sigh. Its crucial. Why . Because canada is the 12th largest trading partner from the u. K. And also from canada. The u. K. Is their 6 5th largest trading partner. After japan, china, the u. S. And mexico, so for both sides really crucial, actually 50 percent of all the lobsters caught in nova scotia exported. So products like beef, beef, seafood, all seafood, automobiles. Its really important, as mark agnew, whos the International Policy adviser for the Canadian Chamber of commerce has said, you know this, this prevents the 10 percent tower of scaling into effect on january 1st. Liz truss the u. K. Trade secretary of trade. What she has said is that this agreement has proven that there is a constructive approach to doing such deals and that she hopes the relationship is formed and goes even deeper. So it really looks like this could be something that is even more extensive in the future for both sides crucial and very beneficial. And it looks like that deal is looking to be signed before christmas. If not before in the coming weeks. Ben, theres also a post brogues, a trade deal that looks like its almost just about complete. Its with australia. Analysts are calling this deal a big win for the u. K. Why is . Yeah, a big win because keep in mind, australia doesnt really have trade deals with most of europe and they havent had it with the European Union. Its a very loose system. So in this case, you would have a very clear set of trade deal between the u. K. And australia, and i want to quote here. Apparently this trade deal includes were told, quote, no tariffs, no, no tariffs, no quotas, and as free as possible, movement of people between australia and the u. K. Its a very different kind of deal than what the u. K. s had in the past or europe has had in the past with australia. It sounds like its a pretty, you know, kind of free flowing agreement. Its the kind of agreement. I think that if you look at those who supported breaks in the 1st place, this is exactly what they wanted. They wanted greater freedom. They wanted better trade deals. They wanted to be not reliant on what the rest of the e. U. Once or thinks is best for them. They want whats best specifically for the u. K. So the deal with australia like the deal with canada would need to be wrapped up by christmas. Thats what were being told that it will be. But again, it sets kind of a new framework for what trade relationships can look like. And in my humble opinion here, these kinds of deals, or what might actually compel other into teas and other nations around europe to break away from the e. U. As well. You know, theyre still working on a us possible deal as well. But hilary, i want to show you is spoken about this extensively here on the show. I want to touch on how important about the fisheries agreement between the u. K. And europe, and that deal what it will look like, how important it is that fisheries deal went to the been reached between the u. K. And these european arctic countries . Yes, some of them actually you write to sarah and it is going to be very important. Some of that actually being signed, i want to quote, actually, and kill a muckle, who has been a great voice of reason throughout this entire process. Of course, why . Because shes got such pressure from of the german, common new factories and german manufacturers who want to trade with the u. K. But im going to luckless said. She thinks that its very constructive that the u. K. Is working with no way. So that deal was signed by george eustice, the environmental minister in the u. K. , and also bring stan in norway. And the deal is one of the 4. Nordic country fisheries deal. So youve got norway, greenland, iceland and the Faroe Islands of all signed these fisheries deals. What does this mean . This means that the u. K. Isnt dependent on deals with the e. U. And 80 percent of the zone, the european sort of zone of fisheries. They all are owned by norway and the u. K. So 80 percent between norway and the u. K. Only one 5th from europe. So really this is a very strong card for the u. K. To have these nordic countries having signed on. Well, then going back to the quay and them having all these agreements, theres a deadline. Its december 31st, there are still still some concerns about whether or not the u. K. Is even going to make deals with any of these countries that are, that the e. U. Will be come out of the e. U. With not a full deal. Ansted have this much, like you said, australia style deal, thats much bigger. What would that look like . What does it mean . You know, who ultimately i think were going to get a deal with canada. Between the u. K. And canada, i should say we u. K. And canada, and were going to see a deal also have a problem probably between the u. K. And australia, with the e. U. Will it get finalized . Maybe, maybe not. I suspect that it will. But even if it doesnt, then you have whats called an australia style deal. As i mentioned before, ill show you does not have a comprehensive free trade deal with the e. U. Its more of a kind of generic deal thats made. And then what ill show you does, is it just kind of abide by the deputy, you know, the World Trade Organization guidelines in doing trade with europe as a bloc. Worst comes to worst. Thats essentially what the u. K. Say, and we can do the same thing if you cant come to terms and very specific comprehensive agreements that instead would just kind of operate under the guidelines that you know. Hillarys talk about that she knows more about it than i do, but the reality is, is that the e. U. Does not want this to be a successful departure from them by the u. K. If it is, then they risk other countries following suit that want to do the same thing. The more successful that the u. K. Is in breaking away from europe and the more successful they are moving forward without the e. U. The more of a danger, it becomes, of the european hellery youre quickly asks, are we are going to be able to make that, you know, ben is exactly right. Thats why the e. U. Is making this absolutely as difficult as they possibly can because they do not want it to good because then it will be the dutch will go next, next at the swedish that right . So when you ask, is there going to be a deal nobody . Nobody knows. It doesnt matter though, because referring reverting to the w t o regulations on distrust because theyd be before to debate. And the u. K. Has already made deals with 52 countries, so it actually doesnt matter. There has been at predictions of mask a also the border, but the head of the callaway portal thora, hes even said weve been preparing for this day. Yes. So i dont think it will be drastic, i think either way it will work out for the u. K. There where they are prepared to hard, which events won. Unfortunately, were out of time. Thank you so much for breaking this down for us. And for joining us today, because thats all for now has been a bust on a man on the portable t. V. And was in fact lose the newly elected u. S. President s invariably, vell to steer the country in a fresh, bold direction. This time, those things may be a bit different, at least on foreign policy. Joe biden has promised to reengage with allies and restore the us his position as leader of the democratic world. Now, will the Biden Administration befall me on the global stage . Will we see a new approach or a return to the old ways . The new gold rush is underway in ghana. Thousands of ill equipped workers are flocking to the gold fields, hoping to strike it rich. Heres a good day. Oh, children are torn between gold. From me was very poor. I thought i was doing my best to get back to school. Which side will have the strongest appeal when she pulled your any attempt to cast doubt on the peace agreement, both in the region and in other countries is unacceptable. Russias foreign minister warns against attempts to deal with the truce between armenia and azerbaijan and the disputed no more to reach and Sergey Lavrov has met with the leaders of both countries. And also this hour a lawsuit by u. S. Republicans claims democrats and encourage native americans to vote and exchange from gift cards, helping joe biden out of the state and the experts question whether a new
