A large number of nurses in france are ready to quit. The World Health Organization says lock downs are not the best way to fight covert 19 because they cause significant Collateral Damage particularly among poor populations. So using lockdown as your primary control method downs just one consequence that you must never ever belittle and that is making poor people or. A warm welcome to you youre watching R T International we communicate. A faltering ceasefire in a corner karabakh has entered its 4th day as armenia and azerbaijan again accuse each other of violating the truce amid a series of shelling attacks saturday those are the 2 nations which border asia and europe agree to lay down their weapons to Exchange Prisoners and those killed in the fighting or meanwhile nearly 700. 00 and exploded munitions have been found in the disputed enclave and the armenian Prime Minister has warned of a potential humanitarian catastrophe. They are very government for its part reported several of its own regions had been shelled barker also accuses armenia of bombarding the 2nd largest city in the country killing at least 10 people and injuring dozens and this is the display seen reportedly showing the aftermath of that attack your van denies the claims to care about conflicts stretches back more than 3 decades although the region is populated mainly by Ethnic Armenians its legally part of the by john latest development for you now armenia has launched a criminal probe into turkeys alleged use of syrian mercenaries to fight for azerbaijan the allegation has been backed up by russia and france which both describe devices as terrorists our correspondent in spoke exclusively with the armenian president Armand Sarkozy and the full version will air later this hour on r. T. Heres a preview. In and of course turkey is the one that brought. Islamic militants and terrorists in to azerbaijan of course as you were usual turkey was doing the you were you need an excuse why on earth you were doing that one of the excuses why there is are i think brothers well doesnt work in the new world because your ethnic rather is go up to central asia mongolia to the north of china are you are you are you ready to into if you were any problem that you were at think rogers will get there maybe yes you see if i look at modern turkey i mean 360 degrees to you that turkey has problems with the problems in egypt it is evolving into lead via well is it that the grudges or Something Else its a different story thats one second they were speaking about to kick a fighter is absolute nonsense 3rd one there was speaking about the pipelines that are running from baku to to the b. B. C. As an oil pipeline its what im said referring to this because the motivation was that our media world will heed them and were here to protect them. Story wheres the logic if i mean it had to hit that pipe they should have hit that 20 years ago 20 years ago that when they were starting to build the body pump of a couple of shellings would stop the pipelines being built armies didnt do that and they didnt do that more than 20 years no shelling and no one bullet was fired by means of love the armenians allowed to budge on to build the pipelines to sell their oil and gaza not only theirs but from spin and also from from the central asia make billions of dollars and use that billions of dollars in buying billions of dollars of worth of armament and they use that against gordon to cut a buck and that brings 2 to a conclusion billions of dollars so thats money and turkish supports bombing and support has created and with money in turku support you can come over any more the road air Defense System that theyre going to cut off but only my colleague mia harvey spoke to the lie of the spokesperson of the Azerbaijani Ministry of Foreign Affairs she told us the as there is stance on turkish involvement in the dispute. There at this incorporation of that occasions about turkey support was a part of that we also make it clear that yes turkey and us have our job we have a good cooperation in various fields including the military sphere this is nothing to the. Other countries as well but it doesnt mean that turkey supports us and working on that we want. First of all to peace accord is most important we have been witnessing the support all the time as well but its the other for johnny army. Against the illegal presence of the army of armenia on our own soil armenia claims that fighter jets have been involved supporting azerbaijan whats your response to the recent kraken use. That army has been spreading even before the escalation in the region well if you ask me the question why 1st of all we dont need any fighter and militias on our soil because we have a large strong and professional army which is able and capable to defend its its own integrity within it is not very good and i for this its gone of an uneasy situation because of the underlying problems what about that and allowing the people of the disputed region to decide their own futures what about the claims for independence that would make up our surroundings because raise our children who supposedly just this is a part of the International Recognized centuries of us that lets not 2nd about the armenians living in this group and their rights representation of sufism nations does not mean that through secession since emanations does not mean independence so what we say of course we can grasp of the state of the nation what with being that is its own integrity was it was done if every group of people would declare with claim that they have the right nation can you imagine what kind of russia will have what do you see russias role in peace efforts between us about john in armenia russia is a big player of course there russias role of the many a considerable russia has been active in between the sides between out of a job and are we in yet to find a peaceful settlement for the conflicts but unfortunately we have to say that i mean yes you know and. While i think ceasefire ignoring the demands of the United NationsSecurity Council resolutions as well as the numerous decisions of other international. 6 organizations and we want to see more active role of russia in finding a peaceful resolution to the conflict. Health care systems across europe are being pushed to the brink with record covered 1000. 00 infection rates clocking up across the continent and fronts medics fab our not as well prepared as they were during the pundit mix 1st wave. You know we dont have any nurses back in february in march we had an enormous amount of volunteers the 2nd serious point is that we had help from other regions in march and april to today those regions are all in the red zone where theyre for not able to receive that same assistance so we have beds for additional kovac 19 patients but we dont have any staff to manage them and the new survey has confirmed exactly but it found that with the pandemic taking its toll many medical workers want out of the profession picks up the story as the crew make reared its ugly head the 1st story of real strain was on hospitals who looked as were posed people who wanted to show their appreciation and so started the class the paris. Now is the pressure on hospitals and stuff again all the clucking in the world isnt enough to boost the morale of traumatised medical staff and me serving his bearing that more than a whole for worse is suffering. And many say they are ready to quit its. Conducted by the National Order of nurses 57 percent of respondents said they were exhausted all 37 percent said the covert crisis had made them want to change jobs. This summer saw wave of layoffs and it became clear that the government will continue reducing hospital beds the thing is the government shot Health Workers in the back by refusing to admit that 31000 staff were infected with over 19 due to the lack of masks and medical rows many young nurses considered quitting the thought to themselves i wont work amid a staff shortage on a lower wage in terrible conditions risking the lives of patients id rather leave while i still can and many other moved abroad for example to switzerland or luxembourg where the wages for nurses a double worthy opened up their own practice where they themselves determine how much they work and get paid. It comes as the french Prime Minister issued this warning yeah like the french do it too quickly that this virus was gone the reality of the 2nd wave is here they could be no more slackening. For it is the country facing problems with a medical right the u. K. Prime minister was raving about the fantastic any chests we will because our n. H. S. Is the beating heart of this country it is the best of this country. It is powered by love. So under the course they were thinking of throwing in the towel last month more than 2 thirds who responded to a survey said they planned to quit the n. H. S. Because of how close it had been term goals many said they would this illusion and exhausted but there were other reasons too. 65 percent said a lack of personal protective equipment was a factor while 54 percent cited their inability to speak out. When we were left to work without the necessary equipment with patients who did not have covered one scene we could be the ones passing the infection to them for example University Hospital centers knowingly told staff who tested positive its nothing serious continue working when employees throughout france are asked to avoid any contact with people for at least 7 days at the same time nurses are told nope nothing serious continue no we disagree it contradicts our professional ethics because we are in danger in patients we will not put up with this when nurses are told to do more work extra hours work during the weekends exhausts them and exhaustion leads to mistakes at work we dont want just because of fatigue because our management is exploiting us. Medical staff have been vocal about their demands throughout this pandemic and while in some countries governments have put their hands in their pockets the pay packets its not nearly enough protests demanding more funding for health care and a better working conditions have sprung up across the continent thanks and praise from medical staff who have worked throughout the pandemic is always going to be welcome but medics want to remind people and a government that they owe no more for a cause and do less things turn the right. Soon European Countries could see a whole city of doctors nurses technicians and many more leaving the service. So lets be auty paris. Hospitality firms in the u. K. Are preparing a legal challenge against the governments latest coronavirus with strict restrictions the rules include closures of pubs and leisure businesses in parts of the country Prime Minister baraks johnson has defended the new measures after a spike in covert cases. In this in the sense that i think theyve theyve closed the bars in in paris and. Berlin theyve got the 1st few since shes not in full you know and so you know of course across europe and elsewhere you can see people tackling this in very similar ways a 3 tier lockdown system has been rolled out for england with the country split into risk levels in high risk zones people from different households are banned from mixing indoors and in very high risk those that rule against mixing applies both indoors and outdoors in addition pubs and gyms have to close the city of liverpool is bearing the full brunt of the restrictions are both local authorities and businesses that are pushing back we heard from a spokesman for the Pub Invest Group in liverpool that he told is the government has deliberately made the rules impossible to follow. Soon to be a bit a lot of money. Basically your policy to push the blame on to the bar managers and hospitals you treat it was rather than that people said a little through. The government has worked with and hospitality tree in the spirit that we could have avoided a lot of these problems now and the peoples confidence is becoming more and more not because the rules are so low on eating you know and a heart to heart to navigate because of these rules are passed on manages the small amounts of abuse from the public who dont necessarily understand the rules that they have to. The World Health Organization has warned governments against using lockdowns as a primary control method against the spread of covert 19 stop using lockdown as your primary control method lockdowns just have one consequence that you must never ever belittle and that is making poor people an awful lot poorer well Global Economy as a whole has certainly felt the impact of the lock downs with one recent forecast suggesting it will contract by 5 percent in 2020 thats despite governments together stumping up trillions of dollars to protect jobs and markets some analysts say the world could enter its worst recession since the Great Depression rick sanchez from r. T. America discuss the pros and cons of lockdowns with his guests. These lock downs extended lock downs are ridiculous and are causing such economic and mental and health devastation at some point we have to have a conversation about how do we protect the most vulnerable but weve got to get back to work these lockdowns are devastating to the working class and i would argue that those that are arguing for extended lock downs are anti working class i got your point but heres the other point here other countries that have been able to deal with this effectively vietnam south korea. New zealand some of them not get out in like weeks to a month and they didnt do it with a lockdown they did it with an entire list a bevy of things including testing immediate testing knowing who are the people who are isolating them i mean that is how it would appear like this disease right. You know i agree 100 percent they did it with the Leadership Structure they leaned in on the science they did it with a Leadership Structure and a government that understood what 1000 was and what type of a threat it was they did it by not acting like oh but 19 was a hoax at the end of the day we do have countries that have far exceeded the level of success when it comes to preventing individuals from contracting cope at 19 and i think that those are areas that we need to look towards on in terms of the methods that they use but in each one that you just named they had government leadership that follow and acknowledge the fact that 1000. 00 was a threat and developed a plan from day one whereas in america we had a president who completely ignores the threat and its like to keep going as if it would not affect us and acted as though we were somehow insulated because were the United States and we have american blood running through our banks and i would argue if you didnt have these extended lock downs in california and new york that average would be even lower and youre seeing the g. D. P. Come roaring back i will point out this i think the shame of it all in the spring is that trump listen too much to bricks and fall with faulty models including the marine model out of Washington State if you hadnt and followed his instincts i think wed be in a much better place if they were. A lot of people who still though state house parties and other things im from chicago originally i know chicago shut down lockdown while their cases steadily went up but in large part that was because of basic Human Behavior and people not following the sort of distancing guidelines so i think that taking a construct with the other things that weve heard from organizations like the c. D. C. Its very important that we follow all of those things and not look to one as the magic bullet to ensure that people are healthy in. The u. S. City of portland has seen riots in vandalism with stop choose toppled as people demonstrated on Indigenous Peoples day which has replaced the federal columbus day holiday in several states. To statues of former president Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln were pulled down and the entrance to the Oregon Historical society was damaged 3 people were arrested President Donald Trump has condemned the unrest saying the culprits should be jailed. Put these animals in jail now the radical left only knows how to take advantage of very dumb leadership fools this is biden law and order earlier we spoke to political activist Antony Rochus rights and social justice journalist on many kone and explained why some people object to certain statutes in the us. Columbus day is a celebration of white male mediocrity this is a person who got lost and got very very lucky you dont see for instance swastikas in germany and for all intents and purposes hitler did things for germany that were beneficial to the germans but were so disgusting in the process that those symbols have been taken down in germany where theyve had this true record truth and reconciliation process i just dont think that we can exercise this from an anglo centric lens of a referring to it so as our history now we might have all been combined or impacted in some sense but we were not impacted in the same way and this goes back to that indigenous idea of 3 prior and informed consent they were not informed and they did not give consent for the symbols of hate that have been literally etched in stone and something that was sacred to them that cant continue to happen and in some cases yes and many of the statues may have to come down i didnt know lincoln had ordered the lynching of 38 1st world people who were trying to protect their families and we did this is an opportunity to understand yes to lincoln is. Revealed in america for so many values that we hope to aspire to and yet we never really tell the story of what happened to the 1st native people in america and whats happening to them today and that was brought out in. Russias foreign minister has european nations to turn down the rhetoric against most guys like a laugh out of spec alley on monday at the valdai discussion of a parent of a capital. If the European Union does not understand the need for mutually respectful dialogue with russia we will have to stop communicating with them. Or live now to the revolution from moscow marie i get to see you could you tell us more about the Foreign Ministers remarks on the context place well nikkei does seem to be very serious in fact the alleged poisoning of Alexander Valley probably russias most popular opposition figure continues deepening tensions between russia and its European Partners foreign minister lavrov now makes it absolutely clear that morse code may consider cutting off its relations with the you following what russia sees as the unions unacceptable behavior and arrogant attitude this is ward foreign minister said lover of says that he had more than an hour conversation with the u. S high representative open an onus explaining to him russias official position and calling on europe to stick with the International Law. Look at how the e. U. Council on Foreign Policy went and the moralizing tone of what was said the accused russia of failing to use not unity to explain what happened to me i will not get into details but there are plenty of ways in which the European Union has behaved completely inappropriately in the army case. All this comes after the European Union unanimously supported germany and france as plan to impose individual sanctions against russian individuals supposedly being involved in the alleged poisoning of alexei in the valley allegedly again with the use of nerve agent it is unclear right now what restrictions exactly where talking about but reportedly itll a fact 9 citizens of russia and most likely it will include traditional travel ban and freeze of asses here is what germanys foreign minister had to say about that. We have initiated sanctions against individuals whom we believe to be partly responsible for this violation of International Law it is important that the e. U. Shows unity in such a serious crime. Well just a bit of a background for you say no violently again probably russias most popular opposition figure file on august 20th while on a plane back to moscow from his siberian tree. Had to make an Emergency Landing in russia say here in c. T. Of all the nixon a violin was immediately hospitalized he was on ventilator and he did not respond to the doctors so he was in very hard. Situation his condition was very hard and later he was in coma for many many hours and the medics from the almost cost bittle where he was treated repeatedly reported that there was no any toxic substance found in mr nirvanas body but 2 days later mr volly was transported to germany and almost immediately we started hearing from berlin that volley was poisoned with toxic substance from the navi chalk family later we heard confirmation of that from france and sweden as well and later the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons also confirmed this information with a slight nuances say that it was a substance from the nabi chalk family but this particular substance was not banned so heres the story. Thank you for those details of maria for National Speaking from central moscow. Now the u. S. Pharmaceutical giant johnson and johnson is paul think Clinical Trials of an experimental Coronavirus Vaccine after a volunteer fell thick. We have temporarily paused further dosing in all our covert 19 vaccine candidate Clinical Trials due to an unexplained illness in the study participants adverse events illnesses accidents etc even those that are serious are expected part of any Clinical Study especially large studies but johnson and johnson drug is one of thinks the anti covert candidates being tested in the us is considered one of the most advanced having entered phase 3 trials this is the 2nd time trials of a potential covert vaccine is being put on hold testing of a job developed by astra zeneca and Oxford University was briefly halted in september after a volunteer in the u. K. Showed an adverse reaction well we can now hear from peter smith former chairman of the World Health Organization the Global Advisory committee on vaccine safety thank you for joining us on the program. Does this look like a major setback for johnson and johnson do you think or just a temporary hitch. No i think its much too early to judge that this sort of event not infrequently happens in very large vaccine trials i think theres of the order of 60000. 00 people in the johnson and johnson trial if an event that they dont have an immediate explanation for occurs in people whove received the vaccine then they may want to cause to actually investigate that event further to see if it might be related to the vaccine this happens not infrequently in large scale Clinical Trials you can imagine that if you were to telephone 60000 people. And then telephone them again a week later and asked them if any of them had been sick in that week its likely that some would say they were had been sick in that we wouldnt necessarily say that that was associated with your 1st telephone call so these things happened when you studied large populations and its its too early to judge im sure for them to judge which is why there was the drywall whether this is related to the vaccine or not and the u. S. Government has already promised to pay johnson and johnson more than a 1000000000. 00 for doses of the vaccine how much pressure does this put on the company to get it ready as quickly as possible. I think there is pressure on all of Vaccine Developers to develop that 19 bank scenes as rapidly as possible because of the the global emergency that were in i dont think that these Large Companies are going to be pressured by any government really because its really not in their interests if they actually would use release of vaccine before its ready that will have bad affects for not only that scene but for that company so its very much in the companys interest to ensure that in so far is it possible in these large trials they only release products for general use that they are sure are safe i china already has at least 4 coded vaccine candidates in the final phase of trials now if we see several competing drugs coming on the market in Different Countries all at once how are we going to decide which one is the most effective well there would be some evidence from those trials of just how effective it is its sometimes a little bit difficult to sort of compare directly between trials but the truth is that one effective covert vaccine is going to be insufficient to meet the total demar on so we leap need a significant number weve picked it back scenes so theres certainly plays in the sort of Global Vaccination Program for quite a large number of vaccines to be used we need such vaccines in order to be able to eventually vaccinate the millions of individuals who are going to require vaccines now the World Health Organization has urged International Cooperation to ensure fagged lobel access to a vaccine when one becomes available that is do you think National Interests might get in the way of all that. Well i think thats always a danger of the government so always going to look after their own population before they sort of turn to other populations but this kovacs facility which has been set up where the hope is that many nations will actually contribute to a facility that will provide vaccines for basically low and middle Income Countries which are now not able to afford to buy them. On the open market as it were they have been substantial contributions to that including from come from countries that such as the u. K. Were already made a peak investment in potentially buying vaccines for their own country but theyve also contributed to this covariates facility which will make Vaccines Available for those in low middle income choose as well the creators of the sputnik leave vaccine in russia they say theyre hoping to start mass distribution as early as late october or early november do you think thats realistic. Its very ambitious whether its realistic i mean what one would like to see before any very large distribution is the result of whats called a phase 3 efficacy trial where it really shows whether the backseat is protective or not and we havent seen that for that vaccine yet the hope is for a vaccine i guess and a number of other vaccines we will have those sort of results available by
