The box we need some designers creating spaces a for a post condemning while. And whats been described as the final throw of the dice a british and European Union negotiate as a scrambling to try to secure a postbox a trade deal so follows saturdays talks between Prime Minister Barak Johnson and European Commission president on july and now the u. K. s chief negotiator david frost has arrived in brussels are going to be a few very hard to try and get a deal were going to see what happens in the case today and well be looking forward to meeting the european colleagues later on so thank you very much. Well britain formally left the e. U. Back in january but has until december 30 fast to strike a trade deal but the main sticking points include access to british waters by e. U. Fishing fleets and rules concerning business now if the 2 sides do not reach an agreement border checks and taxes will be introduced for goods traveling between the u. K. And the e. U. At the end of the year the dean bob has more for us from london i dont think anyone knows what the chances are unless theyre actually in that room where are david frost the u. K. s negotiator and Michel Barnier the chief e. U. To go see to meeting really we know what theyre saying we know that theres lots of theatricals in the last few days weve heard from the u. K. That there is a problem with the e. U. Side not recognising the the u. K. Is fully sovereign and needs control over its territory and its laws were very accuse the british side have accused the e. U. Of. Reasonably trying to impose a long transition period before those fishing quotas or access to british waters would change the use denying that george used as the u. K. Environment secretary has said we are in the last few days where a deal might be struck he has said that there have been a whole heap in his words of new elements brought in by the other side whatever the reality its its very hard to see how the government can continue that rhetoric about full sovereignty given that theyre trying to strike a free trade deal with this huge trading block in which they want tariff free access to the Single Market and 450000000 consumers on the outcome of those banks that talks could impact the u. K. s kovac 19 Vaccination Program thats usual out from cheers Dame Joan Hall has more from outside a hospital in london. Predictably its already being described as the largest Immunization Program in history as we speak hundreds of thousands of doses of the Pfizer Vaccine are in the country being held in ultra low temperature freezes at secure locations being tested rigorously were told to ensure that theyve survived the transit ok over the water from belgium where they were manufactured there then be moved in the next 24 hours or so to 50 hospital hubs that will act as the 1st vaccination sites one of them is behind me here the royal free in north london. And theyll begin that roll out on tuesday initially going for the most vulnerable sectors people over the age of 80 and also care home staff and workers then spreading the program out possibly quite quickly the government has told general practitioners in local clinics to be ready and on standby from the 14th of december perhaps the start of ministering the vaccine of local level then and then of course expanding more widely than that to the mass population probably only in the new year including things like sports stadiums conference venues and the like but this is the beginning in 2 days as i say at sites like the one behind me the 1st vaccine doses will be handed out take a listen to what a Senior Executive from the National Health service in england had to say this morning as a doctor this is a really exciting moment n. H. S. Staff around the country vaccination hub such as this one we here at today have been working tirelessly to make sure that we are prepared to commence vaccination on tuesday this feels like the beginning of the end but of course its a marathon not a sprint and it will take many months for us to vaccinate everybody who needs vaccination. Well the u. S. Health secretary says there is a comprehensive plan in place to deliver coronavirus vaccinations to millions of people across the country president elect joe biden said on friday that his Incoming Administration had not seen a detailed plan that acts as our quote biden statement nonsense he said the rollout was being managed by the minute cheney and the private sector well its peter our correspondent mike hanna whos in washington d. C. For us and i guess the question that Everyone Wants to know is how soon could we see this all start happening. Well thats a very important question indeed and of course the situation here is utterly dire as these Church Bells Ring behind me here as they have every day since the 1st recorded case of coronavirus with the United States and an absolutely stark statistic is that from that date it took 100 days to register 1000000 cases in the past 5 days you a 1000000 cases of corona virus have been recorded in the United States this is a massive search what is happening this week the food and Drug Administration will begin a review process it meets with independent Health Experts to review the Data Collected on a new vaccine now this is a process that would normally take Months Health officials are hoping that it could take a matter of hours and certainly this is something that everybody is looking to as a bit of a Silver Lining but that is only the beginning of what is going to be a new struggle the health circuitry pointing out that its going to take months before the general public will receive a vaccine once it is approved this is what he had to say. Were going to focus on those most vulnerable and those most on the front lines of treating people with kovan with the initial 40000000 doses in the next month and then were just going to progressively keep adding more and more people so be thinking in the february march timeframe that youre going to see more general vaccination and by the 2nd quarter of next year well see well have enough vaccine for every american that wants that but more and more people are just going to keep progressively getting vaccinated week by week as the product was offline. And not seen Health Officials have said that it could be as soon as 24 hours off the f. D. A. Approval that the vaccine is being shipped out but theres still questions about that you heard the Health Secretary saying that the military and private sectors are going to be doing distribution but it would appear that its being left through the law actually to the states there is no clear federal plan in place of this particular point to push out the vaccine it is going to be up to the states to distribute once it gets to the states the military says it is only serving a logistical role in this so not quite clearly how the vaccines are going to be moved from central locations out to the states what we do know is that is then going to be up to the states not the federal government to move those vaccines to individuals mike hanna there with all the latest for us from washington d. C. Thanks so much mike well a batch of 1000 vaccines from china has now arrived in indonesia 2 days after the government approved its use by a Pharmaceutical Company sign of acas already conducting human trials then daily infections have seen record numbers and recent days with several politicians testing positive as well indonesia has the highest number of cases and deaths in the Southeast Asia region. And we do want to venezuelans are choosing a new congress in an election thats being boycotted by the opposition the u. S. The e. U. And most latin american countries are calling it a sham voters they say it will enable president Nicolas Maduro is the Ruling Socialist Party to take over the last state body currently controlled by the opposition and euro says hell step down if his party doesnt win the voters while our last in america at a tell you stand you minutes following all the events for us from chiles capital santiago you see i know you were in this popular market for venezuelans that just how engaged is the diaspora in this election. Weve been speaking to a lot of venezuelan migrants here at this market and in other parts of the city venezuela has what i mean chile has one of the largest venezuela migrant communities in all of latin america and the world so there are a lot of people here and just about everyone weve spoken to has number one described these elections as a fraud and b. Theyre saying you know were not even keeping track of whats going to happen because the outcome is a foregone conclusion now this this comment by president my little that he would resign if he didnt win and by when he means to have total control 2 thirds majority of the National Assembly well thats a rather hollow promise or threat because its completely out of the question that the Ruling Socialist Party wont win 1st of all because the opposition isnt taking place and when i say opposition i mean the mainstream opposition there are some very very small parties that are more or Less Beholden to the government who are participating but this is like an election where if it were the United States the democrats were participating or it would germany the christian democrats and the social democrats werent allowed willing to take part so thats the reason why there isnt really much mystery about what the outcome will be the only real question is how many people will actually go out and vote and and that is a big question because according to the latest Data Analysis poll. Less than 30 percent of venezuelans have the intention of going out to vote and yet high ranking members of the government are openly threatening those who dont vote would not giving them. The number 2 person in the government has said that those who do not vote will not eat and im quoting him directly and hes referring of course to the government food boxes that are distributed for a very low price to venezuelans and poor venezuelans at least depend on them in order to survive theres clearly a lot on the line to stand given the Opposition Leader mainstream Opposition Leader who is boycotting this vote hes essentially giving up his role as well in the National Assembly where does all of this leave him. When he doesnt give it up because just dont able to participate 1st of all because he is barred by the government from even running and more 8 and more importantly because they are boycotting it where that leaves him is really the big question hes hoping that the International Community will continue to back him but that is a very very big bet so far in january it will be 2 years since quiet ball was declared the interim president of the country and nothing has changed so many people are beginning to question the strategy of keeping him as a nominal. Transition president ial government that hasnt brought any results yet so they may be thinking about changing their strategy and that means reducing or or withdrawing support from all latin america editor least in yemen for us in santiago thanks so much to. Still ahead here hair on aljazeera will follow the prize of ethiopian refugees who fled fighting into st john i think.
