In the us a fall, a Company Admits that it deliberately addictive painkiller distribution. The deepening the crisis, we get reaction from a mother whose son died of an overdose. You know, half a 1000000 people in the country and it really just at the end of many you can meet me at murder. Other thanks so much for joining first. This is art. First this hour, the u. K. Has been slammed for holding Asylum Seekers in prison like conditions that an abandoned Army Barracks activists want the site to be closed. They say it flouts coded rules, but the governments trying to gag them with confidentiality agreements. Auntie shadi address dashti went to see for herself even if we saw they would see why are you talking . Dont like that. Why do you think of it . So theres something wrong. The government stands accused of trying to cover up the problem. The home office introduced a gagging clause in the form of a confidentiality waiver, centuries silencing visitors from speaking out about what they see inside the barracks my efforts to talk to people on the inside of the barracks proof. You child as low as security was around. So we just arrived here at Napier Barracks and just as we got him, a man came out of his window and he started screaming help out. So he pointed and just overhead, we came over here and the security man prevented him from the as you can see, the Security Guard is still there and it seems like he is calling for more. But why cant they speak to us . We want to know, why dont you let them speak to us if they want to speak to us, they can speak to us. At the same time, i think i need to go to the full military base Napier Barracks, in folkston, in kent has recently been turned into an assessment and a special facility that houses around 400. 00 of saddam sica is all men, some of whom have made their way to the u. K. Across the english channel, the government is obligated to find accommodation for Asylum Seekers while the claims are being processed. But the cave in 1000 pandemic has left local authorities desperate to find enough housing, having to resort to using sites like this one in kent, those on the inside told me the conditions are far from livable. I dont feel what i say, but because the neighbor is a very tired of this place, i threw a to be able to have all you on the toilet. Yeah, i thought i needed the toilet inside is not about a fairly thick show. You have to go, go outside and you know its very cold blooded, no safety because it isnt bit because youll know when to happen. But here, i dont know what happened at the home office maintains, however, that these protocols underpinned by the official secrets act are essential. We have worked closely with our accommodation provider, clear springs, ready homes and stakeholders to ensure the napier site is safe and secure. This includes an agreement with staff to provide silent seekers with privacy and confidentiality as would be expected volunteers and medics have sounded the alarm after the conditions. This footage shot by a resident shows cramped sleeping areas cornered off by sheets. Refugee himself has been bringing clothes and essential items to the camp. He says the military environment in the barracks could trigger a trauma for those inside knowing a lot of Asylum Seekers. Beautiful trauma, 20 general, safely in prosecution for in great games that imprison them false, imprison them, and told shouldnt be in place and just use military bags. And its going to a lot of them in terms of these also its just demonizing. As more reports, imagine protests, hunger strikes and even suicide attempts. Its unclear what the future of these and similar sites will be. But for the residents, a decision cant come soon enough. Only i dream, i think weve reached trying, going to be free shots at woodstock r. T. U. K. Cant so to come this hour, a spat over whether to close ski resorts through to the pandemic sees divisions in your deepened look at the tussle over profits versus safety in a few minutes before the vote, charities are warning that more americans are now going hungry than in the last 20 years. Food banks have seen demand soaring during the pandemic last year. Some 35000000 americans lived in food insecure house. But this year, a feverish ski Charity Claims 50000000 will struggle just to put food on the table, while many fight hunger during pandemic. Others are raking in profits and just on, of explains when you hear the rich and powerful talk about covert 19 in the u. S. , it tends to be arguing for unity and other countries. Girl weary of the fight. We need to remember were at war with the virus now with one another. Now with the chance, the corona virus has impacted everyone in the states. Theres no arguing there, but the lives of a select few have changed in a very different way. These are the richest americans, and this is how many Benjamin Franklins theyve raked in during the pandemic. As their combined wealth hit a trillion dollars and must just passed bill gates become the 2nd richest man in the world with a fortune of over 128000000000. 00. Its almost like 2 parallel universes coexist in america. Millions have slipped into poverty, more lost their jobs. Hundreds of thousands cant afford to feed themselves or their families relying on the good grace of food banks which are feeling the strain in the realm of the ultra rich, a person makes more money in an hour than an average American Family makes in decades as if the mega businesses of the wealthiest have been vaccinated against the covert induced financial collapse, leaving all the hardship to the common people. Implant just like you get for everybody but you know, everybody, you know, what happened to the right e. C. C. Discreetly. So everything is closer to happen to future. We just have to be patient. I dont know, i dont want nothing. I have no idea and nobody has seen any ideas for the news. We need the help. It is we are close to protect the public good. And we need the public to come help us. We need government aid while the upper class arent eager to block go of their money. Theres no problem when it comes to giving the less fortunate a chance to earn some wealthy new yorkers. For instance, have apparently been offering 80 bucks an hour to those willing to hold a place in the queue at covert Testing Centers for them in and to suppuration over safe travels ahead of thanksgiving. Even before the pandemic, the gap between rich and poor was the largest in the western world. And now its only ground. The ruling class has used the pandemic to enrich itself and to impoverish millions of americans. We have people now on the verge of being evicted. Many people have been evicted, many Small Businesses have gone under permanently. Never to come back in congress, meanwhile, is doing nothing to prevent these things. Its shameful. I think youre going to see a country that again looks more like brazil looks more like india than it does like the United States say in the sixties and seventies, even eightys, you know, youre going to look at a country with a very poor, you know, masses of very poor people and a few rich, its going to be a very difficult situation for millions and millions of americans. America is 2 different worlds with different fiscal laws and physics. It seems. And while one watches on at the American Dream unfold before them, the other is left with hope and prayer day to day. Who funds in argentina formed long queues to say their final goodbyes to football superstar diego maradona. But with emotions welling up, the procession descended into clashes between police and mourners. I. The Police Reportedly used rubber bullets and tear gas against agitated fans who were demanding more time to say goodbye to journalists covering the story were injured as well. One hit by a stone and on the by a rubber bullet it was. 7 not much, i think in the italian city of naples fans there waved flags and sang club songs dedicated to the late star. I. I. The night sky also turned bright Red Supporters set off flares in tribute to the player. Donna was a representative for napoli for 7 years. He helped the club win their 1st league title in the clubs history. I believe more than usual, no to chef in the city, decided to phase own personal tribute to the football star by recreating marriage on his face. On pizzas and all the speeches to the stadia where other fans were laying candles and flowers in honor of the icon. Would all love to not be i was lucky enough to have met you at them and give a pizza directly to him. This time it was done with a different mood, is that the 78 years ago, i was lucky enough to give it to him in person. And if i can be found and brought something this morning, a memory to the stadium, i want to bring my own. The marriage on a pizza is different this time, but im sure diego will never fade and his name will always be strong in the sport and in the world. Many people loved madonna, some people hated him, but very few were indifferent, and he will be remembered as one of the sports all time greats. The diego, for the argentinians is like a hero. You always have the heroes cake and the heroes show you that the argentinians needed. He always came to the defense. He showed us that it was possible to be the humblest nation and take on the most powerful enemy, mera daughter, to me is everything, not just in terms of food bowl, but also never the aspect the man, the food bowl or his whole character. I dont think we do that. Ive been following him everywhere since the world cup. In 1900. I ran away from home just to watch him play parties, but with a close friend of my adonis. Namely, the former i could or him president rafael correa. It went to hell, you only remember, this is a loss for the whole world for the entire argentinean nation. It was a catastrophe. You cant even imagine how maradona as adored when he did so much for the country at the 86. 00 world cup in mexico. I wasnt at that world cup, but i was in italy in the 90s when maradona played for napoli. He was adored, especially in south so much so that even during the argentina, italy match many italian supported argentina because of the number 10. We are because of diego armando. Without doubt, he was a leader and a leader that never hid his political leanings. He was in favor of progressive politics, but even if you lean toward the right, it wouldnt matter. Because 1st and foremost were his personal qualities as honesty, leadership in his habit of seeing what he thought. One way or another mirjana was a warrior for social justice. He was a rubble and fought against injustice and hope ocracy of the world order. He himself was from a poor family, so he knew 1st hand what it was like, living in hardship. And here we saw it as his duty to change something. Thats what gave him a close relationship and sympathy from progressive leaders in latin america like fidel castro, cuba child ever morrell and the man youre speaking with right now. But the overwhelming majority of the argentinean people in origin, china very well. Not only love but worship diego armando. Theres even a church in his name. And if he was a legend while he was still alive, the now when he has raced past us and left this world, hes playing football up there in the heavens. With those who have also left us, the legend has become a myth. Understand there is a mythical character for argentina and much of the world that winter is coming. But rather than bringing white walkers, its only bringing division germany, italy, france, theyre. d pushing to keep ski resorts close to fight off the pandemic, while others are more concerned about lost revenues. Be to all over bowls . It looks like its all downhill for europes multibillion. You wrote ski industry that stuff. The german chancellor Angela Merkel has called for all slopes and resorts the close, although she greg nice says this isnt going to sit well with neighbors. Austria, we will be trying to coordinate in europe whether we could cause all ski resorts. Unfortunately, considering announcements from australia. It doesnt look like we can do that so easily, but we will try again. Sebastian goodes, the austrian chancellor, is not on side with an easy ban on winter holidays. His government is already facing legal action from a Consumer Rights group over keeping resorts open last winter when the popular destination of ishmael became a covert hotspot linked to cases in over 45. 00 countries. Despite the warnings, courts sees a blanket ban as excessive. If someone goes for a run the loan at the moment, theres just as dangerous as someone going on the ski to alone. If someone uses a ski lived that similar to using public transport over the alpine border into italy and Prime Minister just said be calm, take says he agrees with berlin. Theres a shared concern on this. We cannot in the middle of a 2nd wave of the virus, think of having a normal Christmas Holiday in the mountains like in previous years. We must absolutely avoid that. France has also said that it slopes should stay off limits until 2021. Interestingly, the announcements of being that resorts will be open, but ski lifts wont be in operation. The austrians appear on likely to budge on this one though. Unless brussels comes forward with financial help. If the u. Does mandate that ski resorts stay closed, that means the cost of up to 2000000000. 00 euro for austria. If the really wants that it has to pay for it to the cannot force the slopes to close any restrictions would have to be part of an agreement among many of the states while pine nation that isnt a member of the e. U. Is switzerland. And if youre committed to skiing this season, well, that might just be the place for you. There slopes are already open resorts as well, and they intend to stay that way throughout the winter. Peter, all of our r. T. Berlin. Apolo been a deanie, a professor of modern european history is skeptical the bloc can find a solution to please or i dont think we can go back to the need to majors assault because we still is not part of the european union. So you basically want to breed, like you do also and tell your friends of possible european union, but i didnt find any column agreement. We normally thing the 30, if they opened or ski around, that would be a lot of people whod go to also that we lose a lot of money in favor of all still planets. I think thats possible, thats possible because it actually we should find it or anywhere you want to involving the ski resorts to think about the reopening you see that with some of course it was some precautions like us to undergo it the rap against the recall the to make sure they use the cover that is very respectable, you can find it everywhere in the grid, in the region. And i think about the winter because theres a moderately job in the government of zion down the crisis in the simple way. And the facile, tough 3 which are falling bodies falling, falling on. So you think very rapid acting for 5 minutes. They tell you if you are positive or negative, then if we are out of whack at the lasik, you should be allowed to go skiing. And to stay clear now for days and days, which is a very good thing. Moscows post rollout mass coronavirus vaccination dept a Clinical Trial showed russia. V job was highly effective story until after the break because humans were geared for, you know, millions of years to build up an emotional one. When the communication happens within 10 milliseconds in sky and zoom and all that after that because it takes about 260. 00 milliseconds. Just for us. Now, if were together in the same room, you know, this emotional bond between us is very different, is fine, will bring this back seems wrong. Why dont we all just dont call me yet to shape out. This thing become educated and engagement equals betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for Common Ground or come back in the United States, opioid overdoses of increase this year compared with last. As theres been less capacity for Addiction Treatment because of covert 19, that comes after a recent lawsuit against us drug maker, Purdue Pharma which has pleaded guilty to mishandling its addictive prescription painkiller oxycontin. We spoke to a mother who lost her son due to an overdose of painkillers. The lawsuit is very personal to me. Do i believe as commiserate with the pain and suffering that families like our own, who lost a son to a no, for no pure opioid or even related overdose . Theres no way that will ever get our son back. And we have, you know, half a 1000000 people in our country that wants their lives to opioids for me. Im, it really just says that if you have enough money, you can really commit murder and get away with it. I really believe that the money that they were bringing and because of the sales of their drug oxy cotton, really gave them a lot of money to spend and potentially give it giving the money to legislators and other people in you know, power positions that really perhaps change the direction or you know, of their support or not. And they also were required to pay into the f. D. A. So weve never felt comfortable that the f. D. A. Really has necessarily i reacted appropriately to produce a pharmacist. But the father was ordered to pay almost a quarter of a 1000000000. 00 for spreading misinformation about the paying killer. It also pleaded guilty to paying doctors to induce them to brought more prescriptions for its painkillers. April rivero again says its not just us fault of Companies Failing people. There are obviously other companies who have been involved in this so pure in crisis and the stimulation and sustaining of it, they would include opioid manufacturers as well as distributors of men. So in other words, the companies that would be just repeating out to the individual pharmacies and communities across america as well. The f. D. A. Is to watch over these drugs and drug makers and especially the marketing practices. Clearly they didnt do their job effectively or we wouldnt have ended up where we we are now. Theres no way to produce armitage, not know that a certain amount of these drugs were getting out on the black market. And so individual lead, it even goes out to the individual drug dealers on the streets, not to lean really confident right now that were going to see the resolution that we want. Although we remain hopeful that things will turn around but enough. And because the work after a year of pandemic, the and might be in sight, the russian capital says its ready to stop, must vaccinations. And so after russia sputnik, the vaccine proved to be highly effective in Clinical Trials. Where if an option has the story, there is a good news for the russian capital. Moscow mayor says the city prepared 300. 00, fully equipped specialized. Thats a nation centers. Mr said banning also adds that half of moscow was already mune to coronavirus 20000 of them through vaccine. All of them feel, all right, but with all that, you have to understand that corona virus cases and covered 19 related deaths remain in a very high level here in moscow and across russia and pandemic restrictions remain in force in so many places. Just remind us, put new career is currently on to go in phase 3 of its Clinical Trials. Early interim results just recently showed that the drug is 95 percent effective. 42 days after the 1st days, developers expect to produce up to 2000000 doses till the end of this year. Meanwhile, other vaccines are also getting ready to enter global markets. Some of them with some difficulties. The u. K. Sweden astra zeneca will be trialled again and made mountain questions over dosage issues. Russia suggests combining with sputnik the vaccine to boost efficacy current to fool those astra zeneca regimen resulted in 62 percent efficacy. If they go for a new Clinical Trial. We suggest trying a regimen of combining the astra zeneca shots with the sputnik, the human edina viral vick, to show it to boost efficacy. Combining vaccines may prove important for revaccinated ins. There was no Immediate Response from the Company Behind us through seneca, russia still waiting for their reaction. Other vaccines are also there. The u. S. Based foreign giant is pfizer and the dead in the say, their drugs are also over 95 percent effective. Well, has russia says the more vaccines the better . And i think we would rather all agree with that. The bridge brought up today to join me for more than half an hour. Its been decades since the fall of spains fascist regime, but old wounds still havent healed in the times when infamous me from a dog to me coffee to market economies above all of us at the source mean older than us. And the same question, which we know sells ins of newborn babies were torn from their mothers and given away and forced adoption. Only for feaster to this day, mothers still search for grown children. Adults look in hope for their birth parents. Is your media a reflection of reality .
