Great millions of people head to the polls of the king of fast despite threats of violence. We begin in the United States where the head of the Vaccine Program says the 1st americans could be receiving it as soon as december 11th months of ways says the plan is to vaccinate 20000000 people before the end of the year. 2 vaccines are up for approval. In early december, early dancer shows need to be 95 percent effective. Our plan is to be able to ship vaccines to the immunization sites within 24 hours from the approval. So i would expect maybe on day 2, after approval on the 11th or on the 12th of december, hopefully the 1st people will be immunized across the United States, across all states. In all the areas where this, the state department of health will have to told us where to deliver the vaccine. Col haim is in washington d. C. For us. So this looks like a major turning point in the global fight against covert 19, right . Well, it could be to seems like some, finally, some good news after 8. Horrible, horrible months. Put, put it in perspective though, how things are going right now in the United States here in washington, d. C. And the vast majority of states to experience in record numbers on friday, almost 200000 people tested positive for the coronavirus and the holiday is approaching. They told people to stay home, theyre not staying home. You see people traveling all across the country for the thanksgiving holiday. Health experts say this is going to put hospitals to the breaking point. Were not seen here, but we saw in the spring, which was the military jumped in, they started building field hospitals. One of the bigger concerns now is lets say when new york had their outbreak in the spring, what they were able to do is fly and nurses and doctors from all over the country to help them out to staff those extra beds. But now because its so widespread, its so bad everywhere they just cant do that anymore. So Health Experts say this is great news, but its just going to get really, really bad in the coming weeks. And if you think about, if it takes 2 weeks for the infection to show up, 2 weeks, 3 to get sick in the hospital to a few more weeks until so many people are going to die from this. So any bit of bright is good news. Were going to look at that. He also said that its possible that by may of this year there could be enough people in the immunized that would have heard immunity, you know, dr. Anthony fauci, the lead Infectious Disease expert was talking today. He said, maybe not may, he said, for that to happen. We have to have people actually take the vaccine more than 40 to 50 percent right. Now surveys are saying that only about 58 percent of adults say that they will take this vaccine rember. Theres a small but very vocal contingent on social media, people who are just against any vaccinations. So still a long way off and theres questions the transition is going to have than you can see it right in the Little Corner behind me. Theyre building the grandstand for the inauguration of what will be president elect, joe bidens, a dog on january 20th. But because u. S. President is simply refusing to acknowledge the reality that he has lost this election. Bidens team is not being briefed on whats called operation warp speed and bidens, chief of staff, incoming chief of staff was talking today. He said, look, we dont trust this administration that they dont have huge holes in their plan. Because look at testing, he said only one of 3 americans have actually been able to get a coronavirus test. I can tell you that its really, really hard to find that only a rapid test, but to get test results back in less than 6 days. In this country, and thats just in maryland, which isnt actually all that hard hit right now compared to the rest of the country. So they said, look at what theyve done with testing. We dont know what their plan is for getting that vaccination out. That said, according to our operation warp speed, which is what the health and Human Services teamed up with, the department of defense, what theyve been doing for all of these months while these vaccines are being tested, is theyve been stockpiling them. Theyve built up factories and theyve just pumped out millions of these doses and storing them the thought being if they didnt work fine, they just throw them out. But if they did work that have them ready to go. So that process is continuing. There are questions about how theyre going to distribute this, whos going to get it 1st, but for the 1st time in a very, very long time, we can say that there might be some good news in the u. S. When it comes to the ground of ours. All right, thanks so much kathy, call him that. The virtual g. 20 summit in saudi arabia has ended with World Leaders promising to spare no effort in distributing coronavirus vaccines worldwide. But they gave few specifics. In the final communique, the pandemic dominated this years event, which brings together leaders of the worlds 20 biggest economies discussion centered on the Fair Distribution of vaccines as well as economic recovery worldwide. But the event also drew calls for saudi arabia to answer International Criticism over its human rights record. Our diplomatic editor james bays joins us now from the United Nations. So james, i understand youve finally got that final communique. What does it say . Well, weve been through the final communique and we heard the 1st words in the final statement from king solomon and from his son, crown Prince Mohammed bin selma. And theyre all very good words. And the g 20 is clearly making progress on, on things towards the pandemic. As they have done all year with a series of initiatives, i think the test is whether theyve done what the International Humanitarian and medical community wanted. And in addition to this leaders declaration, ive obtained the speech that just a couple of hours ago was made at the g 20 by the u. N. Secretary general, representing the whole humanitarian, a medical Community Around the world. And he had 2 big past asks one. He said theres a financial gap of 28000000000. 00, and we need 4200000000. 00 of that immediately for mass manufacturing, procurement, and distribution around the world of these vaccines. They didnt have that money. Well, that is not specifically in this declaration. Theyve fallen short on that. The other was the dealing with the financial crisis thats resulted as a result of pandemic. And there the g. 20. 00 acted earlier in the year with debt relief for some of the poorer countries on earth. The secretary general wanted that debt relief extended in time. And its been extended until the middle of next year and possibly for another 6 months. But in his speech that he made in that closed session, the secretary general said he wanted the broadening of the eligible eligibility of the g 20 debt initiatives to all vulnerable developing countries, including middle income ones that need it. And they have not extended their debt relief scheme to those other countries. So again, using the benchmarks of the un secretarygeneral, the g 20 has fallen short. Thanks so much, james bays.
