dates of these vaccines, they are being delivered close to expiry dates in countries where it is difficult to distribute them once they land. is that a major problem? it is part of the problem. often there are challenges in every immunisation programme and we know that there are challenges in low income countries and these challenges are compounded by the fact that much of the time the vaccines arrive close to expiration. so it adds to the logistical challenge, it adds to the confidence in these vaccines. we need to do better as a world. and, yet, those countries supplying the vaccines have their own issues, political issues. they want boosters for voters who put the politicians in power and you can see from their point of view, can t you, that they need to keep their populations up to speed and that is not a problem that will change, is it? there are a few ways of looking at this. look, if countries follow science and look at where
as a world. and yet those countries supplying the vaccines have their own issues, political issues. they want boosters for voters who put the politicians in power and you can see from their point of view, can t you, that they need to keep their populations up to speed. and that is not a problem that will change, is it? there are a few ways of looking at this. if countries follow science and look at where the data point, it is a reasonably nuanced picture that says that some of the high risk populations may need a booster like those who immunocompromised, and the elderly. there is less of a case for a generalised booster so if they follow science and have the prospective that, 0k, often you have to split the pie equitably but you can also increase the size of the pie and i say that as a vaccine researcher and immunisation researcher who has done work over a number of decades both in high and low income
privilege in the congress. and if there are more words you d like to share with us about what you experienced on the capitol steps today. you know, lawrence, it s not my finest moment. i think we should be civil to each other. she was heckling. bullying quite frankly. had been bullying at the top of the stairs for ten minutes trying to disrupt the press conference with 150 of my colleagues that the speaker was having. throwing obscene comments and her hope was to cause trouble. she was bullying everybody. i said why can t you be civil to your colleagues? why can t you i was angry and it was better me that some others, i think. i don t want people to think that they should yell at each other. but i ll tell you something i ve been bullied many times and i m at a point i don t like bullies. when you have to speak up against them, i will. and that s what was happening on
rafa and roger fedder. jo djokovic taking inspiration from kobe bryant. he said what it is why should i be happy right now? job is not done. so, you know, he has been someone that i was probably millions of athletes and people around the world have been looking up to him and admiring him. so that s kind of an attitude i have. job is not done. excitement is there. motivation is there without a doubt. probably more than ever. but i have one more to go. yeah, robert, you can see the steely focus there, can t you, in his eyes. you know what he said? after beating vera friday night, he said he is going to play today s final. he is going to treat it as if it s the last match of his career. i think that focus really does say it all. one more to go.
buses. there s no reason he couldn t do that with vaccines and require them as other countries have done. this is a very, very bold action by the president. what he s done is very expansive, much more than he intended do and really more than any president in modern history has done with respect to imposing vaccine mandates, but there are so many things he can do. you can see the frustration. senior white house aides i talked to before and after the president s remarks, there was a sense of disbelief and he was giving voice to those already vaccinated saying, look, we ve done our part, why can t you, the unvaccinated do yours. the last one from you. we heard from the republican governor of south carolina looking to push back. what measures will they have? how do you see that playing out? republicans who governors we know states have a lot of authorities here too. what recourse do they have to block what biden wants? i guess he can go to court.
