Scientists in mexico are now at the largest collection to date of ice age skeleton. So another step forward this monday, in the search for a vaccine for the corona virus that has now killed upwards of 1300000. 00 people all over the world. This is come from the u. S. Pharmaceutical firm madonna, which says early results from its trials show, its vaccine is 94 and a half percent effective. This is the same company that present dont President Donald Trump made a deal with back in august to purchase 100000000 doses of the drug once it is ready. Modena, the 2nd candidate, the chance of getting approval. You will remember, pfizer announced last week that its vaccine was 90 percent effective in late stage trials. All very promising news as the infections continue to climb with the u. S. Alone. Now with those over 11000000 confirmed cases, the highest in the worlds so very pleased to bring in the office in new york who is a professor of epidemiology and medicine at columbia university. Weve spoken to a number of times doctor about this. How excited are you about the news youve heard from madonnas today . Very excited. Indeed. Theyre having this news that today regarding them with their no vaccine and about a week ago on the highs effects seen both of which show more and then early do you know more than 90 percent because see this is really very, very encouraging and being said for the world over are can you give us any more detail from, from, from what youve heard from . One of the key issues, if you like, with the finds a vaccine, was how it had to be stored at very, very cold temperatures. Is there a difference this time around . Yes, certainly going to the accident also needs to be asked or a death cold temperature, but not as cold as the cause. A wreck seen their necks in at minus 74 degrees fahrenheit. The highs are actually needs to be stored at about minus 90 degrees fahrenheit. So theres a difference in terms of their net into the cold storage, but both of them need court storage. Ok. And both of them are wired to goes it, right. So its good news that we are getting these levels of effectiveness, but then there becomes a timeline, doesnt there about how it can actually get approval. And im sure that manufacturing, i mean President Trump ordered a 100000000 doses of this one alone. So any thoughts on the timeline . Well, these are preliminary data and the companies are continuing to follow the participants in their studies to collect more data box on terms of the efficacy. I would know how well the vaccine works, as well as also the safety, because we need a little bit of a longer harlowe up to make sure that their axioms are safe. At that point in time, the bulk of the Companies World submit to the for the Drug Administration here in the united states, their request for emergency use are to rise issued and this is a lousy then there are these tribute in and they use of these vaccines amongst the population, and this is obviously going to take several weeks, if not several months and then beyond there, of course, those they need to be able to distribute the vaccines and deploy them to the people who need them the most. And thats our 2nd it except play. If we sort of zoom out a bit and look at the big picture. I mean, this all started well started at the start of the year obviously, but i guess february, march was when we really started saying ok infections are really increasing to be and november and getting these sorts of positive results. I mean, as that been an extraordinary achievement under the circumstances of getting a vaccine to this stage. Absolutely, i think the there was a global mobilization by researchers and around the world and pharmaceutical companies and governmental agencies from all around the world to push the development of that scene as rapidly as possible. Sooner rather than having the usual traditional sequential development of vaccine going through the frenchies instead, hes incrementally over time. And this may now in much more accelerated development of these vaccines and actually starting to manufacture the vaccines even before we have data on their efficacy. So the goal was has always been to try to get the vaccine thats safe and effective as soon as possible and obviously to get it to the people who need to take a backseat as soon as possible. Thats what ok. Dr. Wafa, thank you so much for your time and some yes, some good news and its nice to have that on the coronavirus for a change. Absolutely, thank you. Lets look at the crisis in northern ethiopia, in the government, which is sending reinforcements to the rest of take the region. Despite International Calls for mediation, aljazeera has filmed these pictures of a convoy of troops in their bus there, heading out towards the front line, the fighting, which is now into its 13th day. Theyre also carrying medicine and other aid into the region. The multigrade leader has called on the u. N. And the African Union to condemn ethiopia is offensive. Ugandas president yoweri museveni, met ethiopian ministers and urged negotiations. But the government says uganda will not play any mediation role. As the crisis continues, thousands more people are fleeing into neighboring sudan. Well have a report of that on the humanitarian crisis. 1st there, mohamad. Oh, reporting from the city of gondor in ethiopia. On the border of that to get a region, there is no letup in the fighting between the few appears. National Defense Forces, somebody destruction of the, to great region in no funny 30 pm here in the city or where we are. Weve seen this fool of troops as well as vehicles carrying food and medical supplies headed towards the border them out of eden, has with a to great region. Weve been told they are enforcement for the troops and Government Troops who are already engaged in the fighting, which is now day 12 with the to go right Peoples Liberation front. The government has been claiming huge victories and in the past 24 hours have said they have taken over the town of matzah and say, now they have their sights on mckillop a couple of the region. This is of course something that has been constantly denied by the to Great Administration its leader. And given him, mikhail has been speaking in the past few hours and he has called on the United Nations and the African Union to condemn what he calls the talks on civilians by the Ethiopian National Defense Forces including the use of drones, something thats been denied by in the past few days, to grab Peoples Liberation from tough tick in the war to a new level, using missiles, not just against towns like where we also bought the couple of the region where they targeted the airports. But ive also sent missiles across the border to us model, something diplomats say, could drop at a train and make this war international. So this conflict erupted after an attack on a federal military base in taking my province fight regional colleagues. From our sister channel al jazeera arabic got exclusive access to that base. Now, we are now inside the northern military base, located integrate a region in northern ethiopia. It was the attack here which sparked current clashes between the federal Government Forces and the 2 great Peoples Liberation front. This military base, the largest in ethiopia, houses massive military gear, chiefly tanks, simply because it has been for 2 decades. The epicenter of ethiopias war against every trail. According to the federal army, p. L. F. Fighters launched an offensive in an attempt to seize the base along with the weaponry and they were met with fierce resistance. And as a result, this base has recently witnessed ferocious fighting, marik, but you will be hard to be a behemoth in the wake of these developments. If your peers pm obvious, declared war against city p. L. F. On the ember forces, saying that their assault on the base crossed the red line was that her son was a northern military base. Great province. So refugees as well from ethiopians to our region are continuing to cross into neighboring sedan. Sudanese state media says the number of people think the violence has now risen to nearly 25000. But morgan has more from near the sudan, ethiopia border after walking for 5 days in my matthew has finally reached he escaped fighting in his hometown of home in ethiopia, stigler a region. Hes exhausted and hungry. When the fighting started and people are being killed, i left everything behind in flight. I walked for days and became weak, but i had to continue. Now im suffering from fatigue and ive been diagnosed with malaria. Go to my is one of more than 20000. People who fled to sudan seeking safety. Some have chest infections, raising concerns that they may be infected with the coronavirus. The refugees include pregnant women, like im listed behind it, and ive been there. When the bombardment started, i took my children and ran, even though im pregnant, i carried one on my back and one on my arm. And i started running away without a sense of direction until i arrived at the river and crossed into sudan. I have not had food for days and my belly is hurting, even though ive got a month before giving birth. The Reception Center here at home day it has one health clinic, but lacks proper medical equipment. Doctors say more and more patients are arriving every day. We get wounded people because of explosive materials, like grenades, gunshots and fractures. Some people have diabetes. We try to handle the cases we can, but where we card, we were further to the county hospital. But we are quite concerned about the possibility of spread of Communicable Diseases amongst refugees, because theyre all close together in a small space. So dan is planning to transfer people here to another camp. Those at least well enough to move, but more refugees are expected. And the pressure on this clinic will remain morgan aljazeera, how date need to sudan if youll be a border to a meeting with the foreign minister has resigned the most significant political casualty. Since the deal was made to one of the parts of not going to and the pressure is rising though, on Prime Minister nicola passion on to step down in his 1st address since the agreement with john after the weeks of fighting to take responsibility for the loss of territory, but reiterated he will stay in office and bring stability to the country. Has been widespread protests against the concessions that he made. An update now with hoda abdelhamid, who isnt yet on the capital of armenia and what does the resignation of a foreign minister really amount to in this situation . And it really amounts to that the Prime Minister has not been able to be convincing enough ever since this ceasefire agreement was signed in the beginning. Early days it was the opposition. That was the voice was louder. d coming out of there, but now it within his own party, people had an extraordinary session in parliament. It was only the member of his bloc attending the opposition said that he would not attend because resignation was not on the table. He was trying to explain his point of view, he said that previous ministrations had, had negotiations with azerbaijan. And that the issue of journey call it was always a precondition set to by the azerbaijani side. Well then, after that we heard folks woman of the foreign minister, she posted on social media the Resignation Letter of a foreign minister, which is basically a handwritten letter about 2 sentences saying, please accept my resignation. It was great to work with you. And that was it, no explanation given, she said that the Prime Minister had lied, that its not true that in previous negotiations to fade shoes, he had never been a precondition between the 2 sides. So, you know, to now hes coming under fire from his own party and i have to say hes also coming under fire from to families of soldiers. I was earlier in today just in front of the defense ministry. There were a lot of families there asking what happened to this, to their children. They were very angry because it was quite impossible to speak to them because the anger was so palpable. And they were standing there saying that they come every day trying to figure out. 6 whats going on and no one is giving them any explanation. The Prime Minister said that hundreds of bodies are still missing. But he didnt say when they will be coming back, even though there is an ongoing swap. So hes under fire from all quarters at the moment. Thank you. In the news ahead. We know that we can do this. We can vote un backed talks on libya, run with rival groups agreeing on a date for national elections, but can they get back . And moldova chooses its next leader in another battle between supporters of the, e. U. Russia we got some rather lively weather pushing across parts of china. Now its been quiet here recently with a big area of High Pressure north sea. But at the moment this massive cloud spilling out of mongolia will gather, itll push is where cost more than parts of china. Some increasingly wet weather coming in here as you go on through chews day and on into way to stay by wednesday. Torrential downpours and will roll across the yellow sea. Pushing across into the final thesis of china. Snow on the northern flank might even see some of that snow heading towards beijing. Something to watch out for west the weather will push across north korea and eventually through south korea. Ahead of that fire and dry in japan followed try to into central and southern parts of china for the time being as is the case today across a good part of china and much of india. But down to the south, we have got some very wet weather in play here, and thats going to feed its way in from the by a been go, a lot of the showers. Theyre rolling it under, but dash pepping up across dumbell, not the wet weather there too into kerala, and the possibility of some flooding as well for a time into sri lanka. So wetter weather is set to persist here. Further north, fine and dry in pakistan was smoke problems there for new delhi. But talk to aljazeera. We heard scott realistically, how can you do it . Institutionalize corruption in this country. If we listen. If this breaks up into a conflict between august and india, this has implications for the rest of the world. We meet with global news makers and talk about the stories that matter. On aljazeera be the hero, the world needs washing. With aljazeera, these are the top stories this hour. Heres pharmaceutical firm maternal says early results from its coded 19 vaccine show. Its nearly 95 percent effective. Its now in stage 3 Clinical Trials with 30000. 00 volunteers taking part if yogis governments sending reinforcements to the rest of Northern Region forces are appealing to the International Community to condemn the offensive. But the governments ruled out any mediation efforts. And i mean, these Foreign Ministers resigned after days of protests against a peace deal with azerbaijan. But Prime Minister nicol passion young refuses to step down. He is still defending the decision to hand back parts of not going to cut it back. But he does take responsibility for talks about libyas future have ended, but without an agreement on who will form an interim government. The uns acting envoy says a lot more work needs to be done. Both sides have agreed to hold nationwide. Elections in December Next year is some thoughts on a Committee Founder and director of the static institute a Public Policy think tank on libya. He is cautiously optimistic about the talks. This war was not sparked by elections. Russian snipers that made their way to tripoli didnt come to stop elections or start elections. The war that has begun though, over 18 months, so you can keep counting. For as many years you would like that i would bring back your memory to 2017. Paris hosted a conference between the government, National Accord in western libya and the Libyan National army of the libyan about forces. After and his backer in parliament, i got us all up to negotiate a reform president ial council that is also on the agenda in tunisia is a thin slice of what is being talked about in the agenda, a separate part of the political deal. But let me remind you, this is the most important aspect for a single reason in any democratic states in the world, the head of the state, the presidency or the Prime Minister in some cases, is also the Supreme Commander of the armed forces. And this is really getting at the heart of libyas struggle for nearly a decade. Who decides, is a civilian or not that decides how to control or bring the military to heel . Will the military in libya be subservient to a civilian rule irrespective of what they believe politically, and they respect of who chooses that . And there is a dangerous precedent that is being set because negotiating with helicopter or get us out of all the battles with elegance in the Libyan Political Forum in tunisia is a dangerous treading of the dangerous part. Essentially where you allow your military activity make a decision that only your people can really make it on from still refusing to admit defeat in the u. S. President ial election. There was some speculation he was moving maybe toward some sort of concession based on, well one of his tweets, but then theres always another tweet. And it was this one. I won the election he same in all caps. Early in his campaign dropped a court claim suggesting the vote count in pennsylvania was unconstitutional. That team it wanted 600000 votes to be rejected from brussels, has more on sunday President Trump golf. But before hitting the links for the 2nd day in a row, trump ignited a short lived media frenzy when he seemed to finally admit defeat. Tweeting about president elect joe biden, he won because the election was rigged. But soon that tweet came down and trump sent out a new one saying, i concede nothing. Trumps false claims of voting fraud have been refuted by state and federal officials as biden attended Church Services near his home in delaware. Trumps own the former National Security adviser indicated trump is sabotaging the transfer of power pretty soon well get the stab in the back. Theories will get the dark conspiracy theories continued and he will make life as difficult as he can for the incoming by administration. I think that harms the country with covered 1000. 00 cases and deaths sharply on the rise across the u. S. Bidens designated chief of staff said the transition must be seamless there. People, if youre just making plans to implement that vaccine, are experts need to talk to those people as soon as possible. So Nothing Drops in this change of power. Were going to have a generator. When you, several states have imposed severe new restrictions to curb the virus in recent days. A coach chairperson of bidens covert Task Force Said biden would not order a total lockdown when he takes office. The better way to think about the safety restrictions is more sit down and we turn up and down, depending on severity. Congress will be back in session on monday, with millions of americans out of jobs and plunged into poverty by the pandemic. Democrats called on Republican Senate leader Mitch Mcconnell to speed up work on a covert relief and recovery bill. The bottom line is very simple. We need a large strong code bill to deal with our problems. We have heard for months, every time we get close to a deal, senator mcconnell says no. He has become the dr. No of coded, a transition on hold. As the virus gains the upper hand, robert oulds aljazeera. Well u. K. Prime minister johnsons going to self isolation after coming into contact with a person infected with covert 19, he says hes feeling fine and will continue working from downing street johnston. You will remember fell ill with the virus back in april and spent several days in intensive care. This was the update hes shared on twitter. I promise the good news is that n. H. S. Test and trace is working ever more efficiently. The bad news is they pin me and ive got to solve isolate because somebody i was in contact with a few days ago has developed coded and it doesnt matter that we were all doing social distancing. It doesnt matter that im good as much as dont feel great. So he would do it in my circumstances. And actually it doesnt matter that ive had the disease. Im bursting with antibodies, weve got to interrupt the spread of the disease. And one of the ways we can do that now is by so if i say he will 14 days when you get contacted by n. H. S. Test, increase his election where the incumbent president igor dordogne, says he will concede defeat if the courts find no problems with the poll, most votes have been counted, and the pro european challenge of my asunder is projected to win. Moscow says it hopes to establish a working relationship with sunday. This election very much viewed as a choice between closer relations with russia or with the european union, has sanya ok, i go now in the order of a capital to show. Now its interesting to note when you break down the numbers, there is a difference between moldovans, how they voted inside moldova itself. And those who are living in the other countries. For example, my sundays win was 51 percent from inside moldova, and in the diaspora. It was more than 93 percent of people who voted for her. So it shows really sort of quite a distinct kind of idea that people have about how they want their country to go forward. Especially people whove had to leave the country in search of work instead of in search of opportunities because they simply have not found them here. And this is one of the things that my son who has campaigned on shes, she has been campaigning on the issue. The challenges of how to rebuild the country, how to build up a country from within. And even though she is optimistic about her when she still is very aware of the hard work that she faces ahead, the modern people prove that they can unite around the good people and that all the right objectives for the country. Now the most difficult part to come see it was not easy to win this election is its going to be more difficult to implement the commitments that ive made. But i know that we have a lot of good people who are going to help. We have a very strong team. Yes, we have all the turns those 2 together. So all in all, it is really an interesting change that moldovans have voted for. The question is whether she can get parliament to be able to commit to her vision as well. Hurrican i. O. C. Has strengthened forcing thousands of people across Central America to leave their homes. Its expected to make landfall in northeastern nicaragua and eastern 100 s. On monday night. The weather system has become a powerful category. 4 storm off the coast of colombia. Iotas slowing down rescue efforts in colombia after the weather phenomenon president even duke a visited regions hit by heavy flooding and landslides. These 3 people have been killed and 16 are missing in the forecast, say, heavy rain will continue for at least 30 days. Finally, scientists in mexico have uncovered the largest collection of ice age, mammoth skeletons of a found in the one place the bones were 1st found by construction crews working on a new report at an air force base. Just outside the mexican capital, i was there was granted special access by mexicos armed forces for a firsthand look. So my most opulent went for these are the bones of ice age mammoths, the largest land mammals to ever set foot on the american continent. There seen the light of day for the 1st time in more than 20000 years animal remains from the pleistocene era were 1st discovered in this part of mexico in the 1970 s. But archaeologists say those previous discoveries pale in comparison. I noted above. The more were happy because were documenting the variety of flora and fauna that once thrived here just in this area, we recently found a tooth fragment belonging to a saber tooth tiger that may have broken off during an encounter with a mammoth restoration and cataloguing is tedious. Work and a delicate touch is crucial. The bones are quite brittle after spending several millennia under the dirt. A chemical solution is sprayed to help preserve the integrity of every fragment, no matter how small load this center has been working at this dig site for 3 months. Today, shes carefully piecing together a pelvic bone that once belonged to an american camel load. This is one of dozens of restoration workers who have been specially trained for this massive archaeological project for many here, its a once in a lifetime experience that ive been making, i think that the defendant i never imagined i would be doing Something Like this, working with bones when i go home, my family always asks what we discovered today. Its a very cool experience. The 1st discoveries at this site were made last year when construction workers broke ground for a new airport at a military base side, mexico city. Today, a 1st of its Kind Partnership between scientists and the mexican military has led to the cataloguing of hundreds of individual specimens of hadleys miles, the amount of electricity. The militarys high command has instructed us to provide all the support of instigators need. We supply resources like laser scanners lancer phase drone flights. Anything thats needed for the study a year on there are now 230 digs, sites just like this one. And the team say theres still plenty more to find. As you can see, we are completely surrounded by the bones of ice age mammals just in this area alone, where were standing. There are at least 2 sets of mammoth tusks, but theres also the remains of giant slots saber tooth tigers. And many other species that have been extinct for thousands of years. Once a specimen has been cleaned, catalogued and reinforced, its prepared for transport. Scientists and government Officials Say the plan is to showcase the assembled skeletons at a Museum Inside the mexican capitals newest airport. Scheduled for completion in 2022. Little aljazeera, mexico city half past the hour on aljazeera. And these are the top stories, the u. S. Pharmaceutical firm, modernists as early results from its covert 19 vaccine show. It is nearly 95 percent effective. Its now in stage 3 Clinical Trials and 30000 volunteers have taken part. Its a really important milestone in the fight against the pandemic because it demonstrates that our magazine, our morning 1273 is able to prevent covert 9
