The explosion an Iranian Nuclear facility last month was an act of sabotage the conclusion of Irans Atomic Energy Organization but it did not reveal who was responsible a spokesman for the Government Agency says reveal the reason behind the blast turns facility into calls the announcement comes a day before the head of the uns atomic Watchdog Agency arrives in teheran rather hoping to get access to sites believed to be storing undeclared nuclear material. Into iran and iran has felt suspicions after several incidents well this is the 1st time they were officially admitted that this was an act of sabotage when this incident took place in early july we were 1st told it was an accident f. I had taken place then it was revealed that actually there was more damage than previously thought and then we were told that there was considerable damage and it could cause medium term delays for the production of advanced machines where iran said that they would compensate for any delays by creating more capacity now we dont know the exact details of this act of sabotage retold that that will be released by Security Officials at the appropriate time now this incident did take place over a month ago but was preceded by an explosion east of the one near a military base and then there were several incidents fire power plants and also factories which raised suspicions in the country now this isnt the 1st time. Irans facilities have been targeted in 2010 the stuxnet virus was discovered at the very same Nuclear Facility then the towns Nuclear Facility which is thought to have caused considerable damage to Irans Nuclear program and no one admitted who was behind that but its largely thought that the United States and israel were behind the virus but the specific details of this upper target how it was carried out we still dont know its being hailed as a major advance in the fight against coronavirus the us president has announced the emergency use of plants a treatment for covert 1000 patients those involves using plants move from recovered patients to treat people with the virus but theres no conclusive evidence of its benefits this authorization comes just days after donald trump accused the food and Drug Administration of delaying the approval of drugs and vaccines for the to seize that is everybody working together were years ahead of approvals that we would be if we went by the speed levels of past administration would be 2 years 3 years behind where we are today and that includes in vaccines that youll be hearing about very very shortly. To deliver a true bridge and vaccine to save lives were moving unnecessary barriers and delays not by cutting corners but by marshalling the full power of the federal government should britain see in washington d. C. Says the f. D. A. Approval follows president trumps pressure on the agency. Now the f. D. A. One did to announce the road out of this procedure widely a couple of weeks ago but the National Institutes of health and doctor and he found she and others said no wait a 2nd dont do this we dont have the data to back this up just yet in the intervening weeks that all thats happened is donald trump and his associates in the administration have ramped up their attacks against the f. D. A. Even suggesting that there is a couple of deep state operatives in the f. D. A. Who are preventing the testing and approval of treatments and and vaccines in order to scupper doldrum selection trojans the new data has come to my bed but that sort of you know theres a tax on it increasing and now we have todays announcement but there is a proper scientific debate to be had about this but on the one hand you could say look this is an emergency ploughs was been shown to be effective in the policy vote so. It can be safe as long as you as old as you and your technique is the blood supplies very carefully on the other hand theres also a 1000 others of august we dont know what effect house was having because we havent had randomized Clinical Trials yes people can seem to be Getting Better off their injected with this but we dont over the ploughs make could just be that theyre Getting Better health care because theyre being in a sort of environment where they are getting treatment they could be from a demographic that is new susceptible to cohabit 19 and unless you have that randomized trial that we will never know. A mission it is a senior scholar john hope consensus will help security joins me now from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania good to have you with us on the program sir i mean how does this full months i repeat would call the body in reality. So what we know is that when people recover from the corona virus they develop antibodies and what convalescent classman does is takes their blood and the portion of their blood that contains those antibodies in transfusions transfuse that into someone who has corona virus and those antibodies help to neutralize the virus help them recover quicker and this is something that has a lot of biological possibility but we do not yet know whether this works because we dont have randomized control data to show that it is definitively beneficial from the experience knowledge and contacts you have how quickly in theory would doctors see results. In this sort of therapy. Well its hard to say because we give this to a lot of patients so many patients have gotten it because we have made available through whats called expand it use and you do see these patients get better but we dont know if they would have gotten better anyway and you do see it primarily being beneficial in milder patients and and milder patients may be already predisposed to get better so this is the whole conundrum that were in we dont know whether or not it works in a what patient subgroups it works but you do see people get better over time with this disease but its hard to isolate whether its convalescent plasma or the natural course of illness or steroids or rem disappear because a lot of different treatments are going on at the same time indeed i mean the evidence according to the f. D. A. So far as weve said has not been conclusive about whether it works and issues of a when to administer it and in what dose still has to be worked out that said there are many treatments that are being looked at right now whats your understanding of which ones are actually working. So we have data that for example dexamethasone which is a quarter go steroids helps people who need oxygen we have some data on rendez severe that though not a knockout punch it does get People Better a little bit faster and out of the hospital quicker there are other treatments like monoclonal antibodies which are synthetic antibodies that are in phase 3 Clinical Trials and theres a lot of hope around them and theres also other disease other medications that work on the immune system that modeling how the immune system reacts to the virus that also are something thats coming down the pipeline about right now the only tried and true thing we have is dex im at the zone and ramdev severe in terms of the emergency authorization offered by the president to sort of move things along for the medical community. What one does about sort of the balance is that the checks and balances the have to be in place when trials undertaken what do you want to see the pros and cons of does the president s moves help the medical Community Know i believe the president s move will hurt the medical community we were able to get convalescent plasma ive given it to every patient that i needed to give into it had no problems giving it to them under expanded use with the f. D. A. What the president s move does is makes it very unlikely that well get a randomized control trial result so we may end up in the end not knowing whether or not this worked or not nets not how we want to do medicine we dont want politics to be injected into the f. D. A. Decisions we every time the president has intervened in this pandemic it is a it is actually hurt the response of the pandemic so we saw this with hydroxy clark and we dont want to repeat of this this is actually something that there is a promising signal here and we want to know exactly when to give it and who to give it and the only way were going to know that is through rigorous randomized control trials and this is going to discourage people from enrolling in the trials because the president has now put his finger on the scale so to speak to a mission from the john hopkins said to thanks very much for joining us from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania thank you.
