But tens of thousands defied the warning turning out to be godless this time to march towards a Detention Center in minsk on their way they called for the freeing of dozens of people who have been arrested since the protests began. Rights group says there are now 77 Political Prisoners in better reuss including a number of key opposition figures on friday the us and the European Union gets better loose with sanctions for rigging the president ial vote in new guest and for the harsh and frequent crackdowns on protesters ever since the sanctions target key officials theyre not you could go himself minsk swiftly announced counter sanctions against the e. U. Though its not clear what form these would take all what or who they would target. The 1st of the 2020 nobel prizes was announced today and this years prize for medicine went to a trio overall adjusts for their bare discovery of hepatitis c. Charles rice and michael who were on it for their groundbreaking work dating back to the 1970 s. The Nobel Committee says its helped save countless lives around the world. 71000000 people thats how many suffer from a chronic hepatitis c. Infection as estimated by the World Health Organization they have to try to see a virus is transmitted through blood it often goes unnoticed for a long time slowly and silently attacking the liver infection can lead to diseases like liver cirrhosis or liver cancer a major reason people need a liver transplant the discovery of the virus led to huge medical breakthroughs really in the way of saving discovery in the us its critical to go to the to do beginning to really understand. Basic original discoveries that he really enabled theres so much. That has happened so many. Advances in the center but thats made possible at this initial discovery of the action. When harvey alter discovered the hepatitis c. Virus in 1909 it was the 1st step towards fighting dangerous and until then mysterious liver infections the 2nd Nobel Laureate michael hawked and then succeeded in isolating the d. N. A. Of the newly found virus and finally Charles Reiss prove that it is the virus alone that causes Liver Disease these 3 scientific discoveries also made it possible to screen donated blood making blood transfusions much safer if. After the discovery we were able to test all the blood donors and sort out the ones with hepatitis c. One could also develop treatments with which we could successfully fight the virus. Theres still no vaccine for hepatitis c. The research for that is ongoing but today the World Health Organization estimates that over 95 percent of hepatitis c. Patients can be successfully treated against the disease thanks to the work of todays nobel prize winners. Incredibly Important Research into tell me a bit more about it im here joined by our science desk thanks for coming in get tell us more about this years winner. Well there are 3 biologists we learned they discovered the hepatitis c. Virus and actually it was kind of a mysterious search in the beginning because they have died as a antipathy to speed viruses when known they were still cases there was the patients which suffered from hepatitis symptoms without showing the virus in them so actually they searched for some serious pathogen and they didnt know where those illnesses and where the deaths also came from because theyre still millions of people who were thousands of hundreds of thousands of people who die from it. And then they discovered alter actually discovered there were 1st which was a big surprise and of course they filled a gap in the knowledge about the existing viruses and then. Made it kind of developed the research further and showed how the virus is built on a molecular basis and thats how blood tests could be developed and then rise so that actually the hepatitis c. Of i was was a virus that has that can cause of the type to symptoms on its own only thats why a virus is so dangerous that it can cause death and yeah lifelong illness where they working separately or no they have they work separately that are happening most of many times and the nobel prize is that separate research is. Are you are the winners how is this research changed peoples daily lives. So its changed a lot as we didnt know in the 1st place which what caused those mysterious deaths it was a big game changer kind of in the development for a new for treatments and. Screenings in the 1st place because the virus is given by a blood so it can be. When donors give blood and then others need you know need this but for for treatment thats how people got infected and with this research with the discovery of the virus they could actually develop methods to identify it and then methods to treat it and until well until now we dont have any vaccines we only have some drugs that can therapy they can be a therapy. But still its the 1st and the most important step to identify the virus so it was a big a big game changer and then medicine definitely and well deserved women slightly over thanks very much. Well for Anyone Around the world planning a wedding this year the pandemic has brought challenges that few could have same coming from the dealing with a travel ban to guaranteeing a socially distanced celebration its not surprising many couples have put their plans on hold but for a pair of wedding planners in mexico there is a Silver Lining business is good surprisingly good for on a stage and their wedding planners on mexicos caribbean coast and the requests keep coming in mexico is counting on wedding tourism to help lift an economy thats been in the doldrums for months general tourism has fallen off sharply due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Millions of children in india are at risk of being pushed into watched as a coronavirus pandemic rages across the country damn that exploratory should be prevented. And conservationists in taiwan are given. Race against time to save the islands unique flora from the rafters advanced of developed. By british welcome to did. That you could join us concerns are being raised that millions of poor and underprivileged children in india risk of being forced into child labor due to the coronavirus pandemic Child Welfare organizations in the country are sounding the alarm at a time when significant numbers of jobs have been lost in indias Informal Sector during lockdowns the fear is children of out of work parents could be trafficked to fill the gap has more on a crisis that could raise decades of progress made in combating child. Down with child trafficking poising girls learn through play with Child Welfare advocate Rakesh Sanger child trafficking is a daily reality in india. Children are sometimes kidnapped others are forced by their parents to work 15 year old has just returned from visiting relatives in the countryside. But you know about that name mom again i was visiting my uncle and pradesh on the bus ride back if i saw lots of small children all on their own begging on the side of the road and you headed to the company you would be back a singer teaches children how to defend themselves for years he has been working with a charity to fight child trafficking he says the pandemic has made the situation even worse there but there are 50 children are in great demand as a form of cheap labor when adult Migrant Workers returned to their villages demand for cheap labor increased. Child labor is used to compensate. Since the schools are closed due to the lockdown parents have been sending their children away to work. Or go out of get there wont fill up i thought this child labor was found during a raid on a bakery in delhi 15 boys were rescued from restaurant kitchens and workshops in recent months the foundation has freed more than 1000 children being held in slavery like conditions. Signs of worsening poverty on the streets of delhi. Child beggars existed even before the pandemic but now millions of middle class indians have lost their jobs and laid off their servants these children are helping to feed their families. Kyler such as she has established a Childrens Foundation which has grown into a nationwide network its mission raising Awareness Among indians about the need for Child Welfare the biggest side is that millions of children may fall back into picking child labor child that is. School would be denied. These children walk along the train tracks in delhi they hope to earn money from selling plastic bottles. According to unicef there are more than 10000000 child laborers in india most younger than 9 years old. Thats why rocker singer has invited mothers to visit and he stresses the importance of sending children to school. He encourages the boys and girls to demand a good education but i knew if the school was not good enough it didnt even have water we wrote to the head and complained about the lack of water. We even spoke to City Council Members about it ive come here to help find a solution it is. A school play to shows what its like for many poor children how theyre drugged and kidnapped. But these children are learning where they can turn to for help. And joining us for more is most of them under tingle hes executive director of the trial rights enjoy a bunch of fun but oh. Mr tingle your Organization Claims to have rescued more than a cows intruder in from exploitative conditions in the last few months isnt this a job the government should be doing. This is true but that is still push them to have been done we have done it with the support of the moment only and because you cannot do it as you and you cannot stop what you inform me and evict it cannot be stalled without of a mature adult and woman the government so we have been doing it along with the government should do that and if occasion had been done bias we have identified more than about 200. 00 children be of a skewed in last since the load only started in foster care like in say that risk your own 200. 00 children. And last one month and a half month the children who are being trafficked back to work from. You have arrested more than 200 children such elin with information we got follow were teams in working in the. Districts former the children were coming and previous to the ceiling you found the children voting during the dont also there were then to see them they were staying inside what some of the children was stuck up there what effort. To stop. Giving them food and although there was no money nothing so those kind of deal and also we dispute who were the missing the victims of trafficking and they were facing problems so its somewhat of the government and government supported us in this getting it and that is the government has been with us you dont convert these children whove been working in exploitative conditions but id just like to know for you from you about migrant laborers who already are struggling to make ends meet i wonder if they really have any other option than to put all of vailable hands including their children to work. That is too. The conditions because of the children being catholic from the source district was because of the poverty. In those districts that was the reason that all the migrants have gone back the conditions have become even worse in the villages give this to some children who are working in the bank who have been tested for by bengal industry and by talking to one of them. Said very clearly that my fathers i am im supposed to be this and we have 5 business sisters what do we do about it i was studying in the school but i have to leave and then dark africa came and said you know grandfather for that he said he would like to go but its tough because i know they want to tell you who the nimble fingers. And so he has to be he has to come do he wanted to study but he has to come so the conditions in the villages have become really very very bad and. People when they left for doing the long dont devote that they will not be coming back to work right the problem now you can imagine when theyre coming back the conditions i was in the log on in the back in the villages right but the problem continues and i suppose the root question really is what needs to happen to prevent children from being exploited for work see india in india lucky have one of the best. Available but i didnt is that the schemes are not reaching to the people we have our models in which we have used you call the bottom of the model that you work for prevention of. African you successfully did it in those areas where the children will and there was a number and trafficking all that not enough to look at working. Not just access of the Government Services to the people and that was good enough for them to have a daughter to learn from work and put them to school and stop stop the killings and not sending the talent to work so common use of proactive and i think those social welfare schemes. In the villages Education System schools teachers need to be improved the School Systems needs to be improved youre talking off. Just coming into the valley in the School Teaching this one teacher who is teaching all the classes on one to 5 theres just one teacher teaching theres no other teacher and hes also being used for the so the other says that you need to improve in the villages and if youre going to do that then im sure that african will ultimately stop but it has to come from a practical and from the government questioning of the Common People right improvement of the Grassroots Level of the trial saying thank you so much for speaking to us under article executive director of the trial rights and youre a bunch man but on the line. Now over the past 30 years taiwan has earned a global reputation as a manufacturing powerhouse but the push for industrialisation has come with little regard for the environment the government has changed its tune claiming Environmental Protection as a priority but conservationists warn taiwan is paying the price for decades of inaction around 70 percent of the island is still covered in lush tropical forests but some plants have started to disappear and could be a sign of whats to come. It may look incense rain but home cinci is in a race against time race stuff hits a group of plant hunters against a rapidly changing Climate Center human expansion bay search taiwans Natural Environment for plant species that could soon be wiped off the face of fear. Finding the rare specimens takes more than scientific knowledge. By. Not everyone can get to the places i go to i can stay a long time out in the wild in the mountains or forests im very good at climbing trees or not everyone can climb trees. The hunters also have to be able to clamber up steep cliff faces and withstand the damn pores on the many days of time when the suns not shining. Back at the Conservation Center they carefully catalog and store their finds taking samples of d. N. A. And putting them in a deep freeze. By doing this they aim to preserve taiwans biodiversity for future generations. We hope that we will have a chance to return these species to their original have a tough. Time for one day when we can create a new habitat that these species can live there happily for them so. That both miss out the center also study the plants and educate the public about them sometimes making new discoveries that can benefit humanity. Through his or her many of these plants are endangered species we need to ensure scientific papers and research are published quickly so ordinary people can learn that conserving these plants can help us out here are good through growth and we are bound to. The center aims to become the largest shelter of tropical plants on earth a safe haven for flora that can no longer thrive in the wild. Thats it from other stories on dot com. On facebook and twitter we leave you today with images from the dragon Dance Festival in vietnams capital city hum no i the crowds were delighted by the spectacle but of celebrations to mock noise 1010th anniversary were back to more of the same time sudan.

Russia calls it relief for the world the shipments contain the back scene candidate sputnik. 2000 venezuelans will try it out including a member of the president ial family. Unit or fossicking equally brewer in this Clinical Trial phase my son nicholas and estimate duro guerra told me of his decision to be vaccinated with the russian fact seen to join the trial i think its very good but if you move him. Better reuss was the 1st foreign country to receive batches of the back scene last week india is also interested in testing it. For russia it could be a spot mic moment like the one in 157 when the communists launched the 1st satellite. In august russia declared itself the 1st country to approve a Coronavirus Vaccine high risk groups been receiving spotlight 5 Health Workers journalists teachers alongside china russia has been deploying the shots before full efficacy trials are complete the results are promising the vaccine has been met with some skepticism washing his hands multiple times a day just one of a series of hygiene measures them your gulp are in undertakes the doctor doesnt want to take any chances with coronavirus but he knows a vaccine would offer the best protection against covered 19 thats why his volunteer to take part in testing a new russian one. Of those with someone has to do it without Clinical Trials they are no medicine. The effectiveness of a vaccine can only be evaluated in the 3rd phase of Clinical Trials in europe and the previous 23. 00 to 4. 00. Stage 3 of the trials began a month ago but the vaccine which has been named sputnik 5 was licensed already in august before they began mass inoculation in russia is planned for later this year something numerous experts have sharply criticized the russian government rejects the criticism it says the vaccine has been developed from already known substances and doesnt pose any health risks. Russia urgently needs an effective vaccine the country currently has the 4th highest number of corona virus cases worldwide and the numbers continue to rise with around 6000 new infections each day galperin and other doctors working say they are not worried about the vaccine safety. After older vaccine has already been tested on several well known Public People and theyre doing quite well because these public figures include Russian Defense minister sergei sure google moscow mayor say gays will be on in and one of president Vladimir Putins daughters ports and p. R. Material. Its part of russias strategic interest to always want to be 1st irrespective of whether its a revolution or the 1st flight into space now its about saying that were the 1st to develop a vaccine internally were showing that the situation is under control x. Journal and its a signal that russia is still mastering its role as the savior of the world. And. Some young galperin isnt thinking about his countrys p. R. Plans just now the doctor is here because his hoping to help when the fight against the corona virus pandemic. We are tired they wanted to be over the new vaccine would help people and offer a way out of the situation. It will most likely be at least several months until the results of the phase 3 trials are known only then can the actual effectiveness and safety of russias sputnik 5 vaccine be assessed. Know about safe works at the International Vaccine Access Center of the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health so will the russians be the 1st. And look there are lots and lots of people to achieve axing its not about whos going to be 1st its event as many people as can cross the finish line really to have a safe and effective vaccines we want multiple winners here and there are some vaccines certainly you know doing moving to phase large scale phase 3 is as are many others and we want lawson shit to look after the completion of these things 3 is when we have good safety data and good if you can see data that the vaccines actually work. Lots of people we want to succeed here not just on one group or another on the point of safety have the russians been fudging the numbers of some of q since keeping parts of the trials. Theres no good solid evidence that theres been any concern about the numbers the detail that was given in the russian papers and it was excellent you know the quality of the evidence was as solid as any of the other published papers the there have been some lie reports on blogs and so on those really dont hold water when examined fairly and statistically so no i dont have any more concerns about this group than any other group that you can really know. The modified common cold viruses behind such vaccines have been studied for decades but still not widely used why why is that. There are number of other vaccine platforms that have we have lot more experience with the advantage of any of our very good vaccines ease that they are potentially capable of privilege bring almost a antigen to the need system and so there and they vector itself is designed to be nonlethal accounting so it caught causing friction the capacity to do that the capacity to develop these vaccines has been in development for quite a long time but i recently has a really rich lawson shot under the pressure really you know developing a vaccine against of all of ours and thats been a success so thats good and we would like to see more of these vaccines Going Forward claiming a lot more experience with them particularly around safety and around if you can see but theres no reason to suspect that theyll be problematic accidents in fact theyre largely to be very good vaccines where you have a range of potential at and of ours vectors some more frequently encountered by human populations than others then that differences of detention lead that could arise among the different products and thats some of the detail thats coming out from some of the scientific literature but as a platform have you know its a really exciting platform and we hope that theyll be lots of opportunities to develop this platform that respects analogy beyond this pandemic into the future also whats the certainty that vaccines that pass phase 3 will be successful for the wider population. Theres never certainty. Hes built on uncertainty and falsifiability so its really important and methods as rigorous as they can be and its important that we continue to evaluate the vaccine even after that its rolled out and even after it she was last ensuring phase 3 phase 3 trials of the trials that demonstrate large scale you know in terms of tens of thousands and collectively close to hundreds of thousands of People Safety even participants and important efficacy against disease said it actually protects human beings against disease thats the time that we require for licensure. Vaccine is very rarely hopeful because as you know a series sound very rarely their society has the right help the pros and cons as we go back since they were potentially harmful but very rarely so but they are very very beneficial and frequently so so its always a question of balancing the risks and benefits and that correct balance requires good science groups are violence and good evidence Going Forward beyond phase 3 and beyond licensure wellington any use of hopefully future use youve said its problematic if a vaccine is designed to target the disease and not the infection why. Well its not exactly right about your clothes i mean or vaccines really designed to target disease but if i see a complex situation counting record of ours because we have widespread infection and transmission occurring globally i think of a public expectation is that once a vaccine is available we go back to the way things work and we stop mosques and we stop social distancing and thats just judgment of whatever that saying at least in the initial phase can do the end of the vaccine is to reduce disease and to reduce it in volatile groups at least initially in the 1st round of vaccination if a vaccine is given to those at high risk and not toward the body clearly transmission will continue to occur you know if you didnt receive the vaccine but a year from now or year and a half from now or 2 years from now when the vaccine is more widely available it will be critical to demonstrate that it actually reduces transmission and not just reduces disease because if it doesnt do that then the other ways to reduce transmission to continue with slice mosques and so on. One could imagine a paradox whereby if the vaccine continues to allow transmission and works less well to protect against disease in the other lead that you know paradoxically. Address that comes could get worse not better so we need to be very careful about how we deploy vaccines on the basis of the best available science and evidence around what they do what their efficacy hes against you know about say thank you very much for joining us thank you for having. And its that part of the show when we look at your questions on the crow virus is the w. Science correspondent there were. There any countries Testing School age kids on a wide scale to if so what are the results. Because covert 19 in general at least doesnt affect children as severely as older people kids in general have not been tested as much throughout the pandemic its simply been a question of resource allocation but the lack of really solid data has also led to a lot of speculation that kids might not be much of a factor in spreading the disease throughout Wider Society which has in some countries influenced things like decisions to reopen schools but now a big study from india could cause authorities to rethink that idea it focused among other things on Contact Tracing data from 85000 confirmed cases in 2 states there in total it looked at test results from over 500000 contacts that occurred between people who were infected and the people they gave it to or didnt get and one of the most interesting takeaways was that it showed kids actually do pass the disease on to other kids especially those in their age group which would include for example kids in the same class at school what the study wasnt able to clarify was was how often those kids subsequently might have passed the virus along to adults but but even so the evidence now looks pretty compelling it indicates that the idea that kids dont really spread covert 19 doesnt really hold water which a lot of researchers have said shouldnt actually come as a surprise.
