A Breakthrough Malaria Vaccine has been announced by the who. I used been announced by the who. I used the dream of been announced by the who. I used the dream of the been announced by the who. I used the dream of the day been announced by the who. I used the dream of the day when been announced by the who. I used the dream of the day when i been announced by the who. I used the dream of the day when i would l the dream of the day when i would have a safe and effective vaccine against malaria, now tonight thanks god its them instead of you. Tonight thanks god its them instead of you. And live aid one of the most famous concerts of all time is turned into a stage show. We speak to bob geldof. Its not a tribute thing. I wouldnt have anything to do with that. It hinges on individuals and their experience because that was live aid. Let us turn to that major store iry we were covering, the medical breakthrough that could save millions of lives round the world, in the last hour the World Health Organization has revealed a new Malaria Vaccine has been found to be 75 effective in trial, it took place in four african countries involving nearly 5,000 children. Let us go live to oxford and speak to professor adrian hill, the key figure behind the vaccine, he is from thejenner institute. Welcome here, to the programme. And what a day this is to talk to you, we heard there from the Secretary General saying he dreamed of the day, presumably you did as well . Absolutely, he isjust one presumably you did as well . Absolutely, he is just one of the hundreds of mills of children who grew up or grow up in Malaria Areas of africa and he so he fully appreciates this, it is notjust that we have a vaccine that performs well, we have a0 times more than any other Malaria Vaccine that is available. And that of course brings the cost down, if you are producing over 100 million doses as our Industrial Partners is going to be doing and providing very soon, indeed. So, yes, in terms of potential impact, of the Malaria Vaccine, this is a landmark day. I vaccine, this is a landmark day. I want to touch on all of those things but in term of your own personal journey, this almost has been a lifetimes work, you were a young doctor in africa and you saw it as first hands doctor in africa and you saw it as first hand doctor in africa and you saw it as first hand ,. , u, first hands yes and i changed course to really trying first hands yes and i changed course to really trying to first hands yes and i changed course to really trying to make first hands yes and i changed course to really trying to make vaccines to really trying to make vaccines and i have been do that for about 30 years, so yes, today is important, we have finally a licensed vaccine that will make a very big impact. Just tell our viewers watching round the world, why this has been so difficult to crack. The world, why this has been so difficult to crack. Yeah, well it is easy really. Difficult to crack. Yeah, well it is easy really. We difficult to crack. Yeah, well it is easy really, we have difficult to crack. Yeah, well it is easy really, we have vaccine difficult to crack. Yeah, well it is easy really, we have vaccine against viruses and bacteria, until malaria we have had no vaccine against parasitic disease, it is larger than a typical virus, like the covid virus, it has 5,000genes, we havent had the opportunity to to test them all but we have done a lot of trial but it has been tough, people started researching Malaria Vaccines in 1908. I i i started researching Malaria Vaccines in 1908. . , in 1908. There were 619,000 deaths, the fi. Ures in 1908. There were 619,000 deaths, the figures are in 1908. There were 619,000 deaths, the figures are huge, in1908. There were 619,000 deaths, the figures are huge, i in 1908. There were 619,000 deaths, the figures are huge, i know in 1908. There were 619,000 deaths, the figures are huge, i know it in 1908. There were 619,000 deaths, the figures are huge, i know it is the figures are huge, i know it is not an exact science, but how quickly would you hope for those appalling numbers to come down . The faster appalling numbers to come down . Tie faster we can appalling numbers to come down . Tt2 faster we can roll out the vaccine the faster that will happen. It is notjust the faster that will happen. It is not just therefore 620,000 the faster that will happen. It is notjust therefore 620,000 death, there were seven years ago, last year, so progress in controlling malaria, despite spending a. 5 billion a year on bed nets, drugs on insecticide spraying, traditional tools we are not winning, we need something new and now we have it. So this really could be fantastic, because the Clinical Trial results show round about 75 eefficacy, you might be able to save the lives of hundreds of thousands of children provided you can roll it out where it is need. The good news is children in poor areas of africa receive up to ten vaccines, this is the most important one they will receive, if we can get this out there soon. 50 receive, if we can get this out there soon receive, if we can get this out there soon. ,. ,. , there soon. So it is about adding this vaccine there soon. So it is about adding this vaccine to there soon. So it is about adding this vaccine to those there soon. So it is about adding this vaccine to those vaccines. There soon. So it is about adding i this vaccine to those vaccines they are already having, you talk about roll out, that is what i wanted to ask you next, which is what are the biggest difficulty, the hurdles to overcome in terms of getting an effective roll out . Overcome in terms of getting an effective roll out . Obviously paying for it. Effective roll out . Obviously paying for it buying effective roll out . Obviously paying for it. Buying the effective roll out . Obviously paying for it. Buying the vaccine effective roll out . Obviously paying for it. Buying the vaccine and for it. Buying the vaccine and having the field teams to give yet another vaccine, and this one goes at a slightly different age, five, six and seven months of age, rather thanjust after birth six and seven months of age, rather than just after birth or nine month, so that means extra immunisations, but if you do the analysis the Health Economists are clear, this is well worth deploying, in term of cost effectiveness. Bud well worth deploying, in term of cost effectiveness. Well worth deploying, in term of cost effectiveness. And in terms of how ou cost effectiveness. And in terms of how you do cost effectiveness. And in terms of how you do the cost effectiveness. And in terms of how you do the roll cost effectiveness. And in terms of how you do the roll out, cost effectiveness. And in terms of how you do the roll out, we cost effectiveness. And in terms of how you do the roll out, we saw. Cost effectiveness. And in terms of l how you do the roll out, we saw with the covid vaccine, that there were some areas obviously in the west, where it worked pretty smoothly, efficiently, other areas, and one things notably of africa, where they were considerable problem, how do we avoid a repeat of that . The were considerable problem, how do we avoid a repeat of that . Avoid a repeat of that . The main roblem avoid a repeat of that . The main problem with avoid a repeat of that . The main problem with covid avoid a repeat of that . The main problem with Covid Vaccinations | avoid a repeat of that . The main | problem with Covid Vaccinations in africa was there wasnt enough by a factor of about 10 in 2021 so supply is the biggest problem, we think we are solved that, making up to a 100 million doses a year, for1 million children, so that is enough. Then you have to roll it out. The Immunisation Schemes as said, prosecutor laces in africa in the most rural impoverished parts where children get more vaccines than they do in north london, so take up of vaccines in africa is very high, and people appreciate their value and they the see the impact and they really expect to see the impact of a high efficacy vaccine. That is probably the least of the problem, we need to move quickly and we are dealing with lots of different bureaucracy that have to play a part in getting the vaccine to where it is needed most and we have been trying in the last couple of years to accelerate that, so, i think next year is going to be a very big year with huge numbers of doses deployed. Professor hill, those are some of the hurdles ahead. I hope you are able to enjoy the moment that today actually is. Thank you forjoining us on bbc news, than, for your time. Thanks for having me.

To football now and sacked rangers manager Michael Beale has called upon fans to unite behind the club, saying hell always support them from afar. Beale was dismissed following rangers 3 1 loss to aberdeen on sunday after less than a year in charge. He wrote on social media. Rangers sit third in the scottish premiership, seven points behind leaders celtic. The harsh reality is you know the fans turned in recent week, when they start to turn around the pressure starts to mount and you have a disappointing result, you expect something to happen and the club powers to be have acted and michael has lost his job. Sad for michael has lost his job. Sad for michael and the staff, one thing i know is the club needs to keep on moving forward, and winning the var controversy rumbles on, liverpool say that Sporting Integrity has been undermined after the error in saturdays 2 1 Premier League defeat to tottenham. Var failed to overturn an incorrect decision to disallow a luis diaz goalfor offside. In a statement, liverpool said theyll explore the range of options available, given the clear need for escalation and resolution. The var officials were stood down from duty for the rest of the weekend. Pgmol, the governing body for referees, has said it was a significant human error. Chief football writer for the times, henry winter says officials making decisions shouldnt feel rushed. M ista kes mistakes like this Simplyjust Cannot Be Countenanced and if that means a slight pause, and one of the problems with saturdays decision is it was rushed. They could have taken another 15, 20 seconds and had that proper communication to make sure it wasnt, that was a mistake, that is going to be betterfor the wasnt, that was a mistake, that is going to be better for the whole league. The people who matter most should be the fans and they are the ones who are communicated with least, so you have got to play the audio live four time olympic champion, simone biles, has made history yet again by becoming the first woman to land a yurchenko double pike vault.

Around the world and across the uk, you footballs Governing Bodies face accusations that they failed to protect hundreds of Young Players in gabon from sexual abuse. A bbc� s Africa Eye Investigation has heard from more than 30 witnesses who spoke of a network that plagued all levels of the game for three decades. Khadidiatou cisse travels to gabon to investigate one of the biggest sexual abuse scandals in the history of football. We were at a football Training Camp for the under 17 selection team. This young man is talking about his time as a footballer in gabons youth team. We are using an actors voice to protect his identity. On the fourth night of the camp he came to wake me and my best friend. He took us to a room with red lights. It was full of naked men. They started touching me and my friend. And ijust didnt understand. I wanted to scream. He says he was sexually assaulted, and made to watch his friend get raped by their football coaches. Among them was Patrick Patrick assoumou eyi, better known as capello, the head coach of gabons youth team. Africa eye has spoken to more than 30 witnesses, who said capello and others were predators in the sexual abuse ring that has plagued gabons Football World for decades. The bbc was told the gabonese football federation, fegafoot, were made aware of it. It was only after an expose in the guardian in 2021 that capello was arrested. He admitted to charges of raping, grooming and exploiting young player. Months later, the president of fegafoot, Pierre Alain Mounguengui, was also arrested, on the charge of failing to report crimes of paedophilia, but unlike capello, footballing Governing Bodies did not suspend him from his role. After almost six months in prison, he was provisionally released, and injuly 2023 he was re elected to the Executive Committee of caf, the confederation of african football, a fifa subsidiary. Cafs Secretary General has defended the decision to not impose sanctions on him. If today there is no decision of the justice saying that you are guilty, you are sanctioned. How caf can sanction this . But witnesses say no meaningful Child Protection measuresr have been put in place and both caf and Fifa Have Come Under Criticism Forfailing to act. Caf and or fifa, they have no obligation to wait for a State Decision before they sanction someone, for violations of disciplinary codes and codes of ethics. The bbc believes all suspensions of those arrested have now lapsed. Pierre alain mounguengui, fegafoot, fifa and caf deny all the allegations made against them. They say all appropriate action was taken as soon as the allegations were made public, and Fifas Ethics Committee investigation is still ongoing. All parties condemn child abuse in the strongest possible terms. But in gabon, many are still waiting for both answers and action. And we can speak to khadidiatou cisse, whos in the newsroom. You said you talked to 30 witness, tell us more about the things they said were going on . Me tell us more about the things they said were going on . Said were going on . We were told that sexual said were going on . We were told that sexual abuse said were going on . We were told that sexual abuse in said were going on . We were told that sexual abuse in gabon said were going on . We were told l that sexual abuse in Gabon Football was pretty much common knowledge, we were told pretty much everyone knew about it. This was a surprise, it is important to add social context, as we know, gabon is one of the Biggest Oil Producers in sub Saharan Africa but a third of the population lives under the poverty line and most of the boys we referred to in the film come from a poor background so this means that they come within this massive dream of becoming the pride of their nation, of becoming the pride of their own family, and football is seen as the ultimate ticket to get out of poverty, and we were told that predators ta
