Strain. A major win for farmers in nigeria a dutch court orders the local branch of shell to pay compensation just caused by oil spills. More protests and scuffles near indias capital as farmers demonstrate against new government laws they say will hurt them could benefit corporate farms and with all your sports after 14 days of quarantine the worlds top tennis stars are back on course in australia and fans were allowed into new. So the European Union is expected to give astra zeneca covert 1000 Vaccine Limited emergency approval in the next up thats despite a growing dispute between the block and the company about a supply shortage at the e. U. Was expecting at least 80000000 doses by the end of march but a week ago actually cut its supply blaming manufacturing issues the president says the vaccine maker is failing to meet its contractual obligations also far the e. U. Has approved to covert 1000 vaccines but there is growing criticism that the rollout is just too slow but there is more potential help for the global inoculation dr with 2 more american vaccines showing promising results in trial runs the novaks jab its shown to be around 90 percent effective and the single dose johnson and johnson vaccine has proven to be effective in 2 thirds of cases take a good look at this we have reporters across europe covering these developments paul brennan is standing by for us in london hell have the latest out of the u. K. Dominic kane there in berlin will have more on that dispute between astra zeneca and the 1st lets go to step out and where the European Medicine Agency is based in steps so what news on getting at the sign off for the e. U. For the astra zeneca vaccine. Well no news yet they were supposed to announce it an hour ago but then we heard that there will be in a delay of one and a half hours not clear what exactly going on but. Approved. For the e. U. And if that happens it will be nearly 4 weeks later than the u. K. And this very slow approval process together of course with the dispute with the company astra zeneca shows a difficult to roll out of fact scenes throughout the e. U. And the main question here with will there be this limited approval will the people above 65 not be allowed to use that vaccine germany already yesterday sad insufficient data in effect same trials to show that this vaccine is efficient for this age group and of course if that would happen it would be a serious setback for the millions here in europe the elderly who are waiting for this vaccine so dramatically also because of course they are much more formidable for covert 19 than the younger age groups but we will hope to hear this details about the approval process in about 30 minutes from now. People close on things there are a number. Of depressions known as dominant. Desperation there is just how serious a shortage is already in europe where all we know. The interesting thing is that in brussels right now the relevant competent commissioner this is outlining new measures which the European Union proposes to take very soon regarding the export of vaccines coded vaccines that have been made within the e. U. Now it looks at 1st glance as though that is going to apply particularly to astra zeneca another point there is an astronomical shipping vaccines made here to the e. U. To the United Kingdom now the point about this is that for the course of this past week there has been no if not necessarily a war of words but 2 differing versions of events coming from the 2 sides relative to the agreement that they reached with each other last year and the number of doses of the vaccine that would be provided and the cost of it and the way that it would be provided now we know that the company astra zeneca has said that its not going be able to provide what certainly wont be able to write even half of what it promised it would provide the e. U. In the initial doses but the terms of the contract have become of very little in the course of the past few hours many many pages but ive isolated 3 particular pages here on 2 of the pages 2 of the clauses refer to what astra zeneca has calls its best reasonable efforts that it says its going to make or it is making already to try to provide relevant doses at the relevant time frame but of course it hasnt been able to do that now the e. U. Has said that it believes that the contract makes clear that astra zeneca is bound is committed to providing the vaccines at the right time in the right quantities that are specified in this contract astra zeneca says thats not the case that the best efforts were the only thing specified but theres also in the contract on another page lower down where astronauts anika the tests confirms that it has entered no other contractual theres a. No of the contractual obligation to anyone else any other party any other countries which would impede it from providing the supplies to the e. U. So clearly i am past year and whats happening now is the e. U. Ratcheting up the rhetoric saying its intending to take further action so its clear this story between this route is very far from being over between the e. U. And us resume or direct thanks for that the drama came there in berlin lets go over to london paul brennan is standing by for us there and paul amid all this dispute in the rouse there is good news emerging novaks the trials have been taking place in september and results parents are impressive. Yeah the theres been a lot of excitement and some degree of celebration here in the u. K. At those results from novaks which have been published im here at the wembley mass vaccinations sense you can see here that the Vaccination Program is rolling out in stark contrast to the delays that have been experienced across the continent across the european continent anyway nowak says duz was thrilling from the point of view of the politicians the Health Secretary matt hancock here in the u. K. Said it bolstered the u. K. s efforts and the reason why was the dates it was so good 89. 3 percent effectiveness for the novaks vaccine and against the u. K. Variants the socalled kent variant it showed around 85 percent effectiveness and given the fact that theres been a lot of concern about the way covert 19 might morph might evolve might throw up new variants which might circumvent the best efforts of the original set of vaccines that result in particular that a 85 percent result is particularly gratifying for the novaks people and for the politicians and epidemiologists all just going to be using it but it was less exciting in relation to the south africa variants another variant causing concern but still 60 percent effective against that particular strain so whats going to happen now is the regulator here in the u. K. The m h r a is going to implement a kind of a rolling approval of the nova vax vaccine some weeks away from submitting it for full approval but what were looking at is probably the 2nd half of 2021 that this might actually get approved and start being put into peoples arms yeah paul another vaccine close now i guess to coming on stream is from johnson and johnson in the us. Yes i mean novak came out of the news early this morning johnson associated with johnson and johnson. Came out in the late morning sort of around 11 oclock time and there is good news as well and the reason why judge johnsons is particularly good news is because what theyve done is phase 3 trial last trial a single dose vaccine again its storable and usable that refrigerator temperature doesnt have to be smegma cold like the pfizer biome 2nd vaccine which needs minus 7 c. Minus 80 degrees jensen and move x. Can both be kept in a normal refrigerator and a single dose fact seemed really would be a breakthrough mean that you wouldnt have the issues over future supply of those kind of question marks the effectiveness is not as good as the others yet its 66 percent effective but have when you think about it less than a year ago people were talking about no guarantee that any vaccine might be developed against kovac 19 to have now 3 approved for u. K. Use and 3 mm 2 more in the pipeline with approval with the approval pending then you know its really exciting news indeed it is that paul thinks that paul brought in there was some good news there from london well brazil has vaccinated more than 1000000. 00 people but thats less than half of one percent of the population in cities like manassas which is the gateway to the amazon rainforest well its still faces a shortage of oxygen in hospitals corruption scandals are also hampering the vaccine rollout Monica Yannick you have has more now from Rio De Janeiro. I knew back to vaccines has arrived in my mouse and inoculations have resumed after being suspended for a week the Vaccination Program team under scrutiny after local off already as work you have favoring themselves and friends by skipping the line and taking shots ahead of Health Workers and the elderly to Field Hospitals have been set up in my mouth where patients must wait for room in shock or are they to me were swapped Field Hospital should help us redistribute patients. But this the largest city in the brazilian amazon still uses a shortage of oxygen and Health Workers have been working around the clock to keep patients from suffocating to death like many both anything he does and didnt make it was you ask a nurse to hope for you and she says she cant do anything because shes dealing with another patient who is dying right in front of you there arent enough Health Care Workers to deal with this we wouldnt be in this situation if the amazon a state had invested in health care where did all the money go the health minister. Visited man hours this week for the 2nd time hes also being investigated for allegedly mishandling the crisis. So we to begin increasing the number of infections in early january tripling the number of infected people this was a completely unknown situation to everyone. And then there is a new variant of the corona virus discovered in my mouth and much more contagious than the 1st it has already spread to some paolo brazils richest city as a result countries like the United States portugal peru and colombia are restricting flights to and from brazil. Photo and Video Editing tell us for a period of 30 days passenger flights from colombia to brazil and brazil to colombia will be suspended yes brazil has the largest covert 900. 00 death toll after the United States but according to a study by Australias Lowy Institute comparing how 98. 00 countries have dealt with the pandemic brazil is considered the worst its at the bottom of the list right after Mexico Colombia iran and the us china it was not included due to a lack of data. Brazils president j. Able somehow though has always downplayed the virus and even question the value of vaccine he has also asked governors and mayors. To avoid lockdown you know gambling well its got think twice about restrictive policies you must understand that isolation lockdown and confinement leads to destitution ive always said that the economy walks hand in hand with life. Some paolo and menow some have just imposed new restriction measures but in Rio De Janeiro where the number of infections is also growing the beaches are crowded and social distancing seems to be a thing of the past. My opinion not give all just sirrah the addition are. Experts from the World Health Organization have met chinese scientists and as they continue their investigation into the origins of cave in 19 the team is now expected to conduct its 1st field visits in the city which has had such as would visit hospitals labs and the food markets that have been linked to the earliest cases of the virus. Claymore still ahead on the news hour including. That her rabbit is considered to run a one for 10 for the chinese during that 1000000 year but ive found a report about these charities is turning out every single very bad lot here in chile. By the u. S. Architect of the Iran Nuclear Deal is named as the new special envoy but its kind of bridge the divide between tehran and washington and back to winning ways well have action from liberals victory in the premier league thats coming up peter and paul. Supporters of indias governing b j p accused of attacking farmers who are demanding the government withdraws controversial laws they say will ruin their livelihoods thousands of farmers refused to move during the standoff on the outskirts of new delhi police then intervened using tear gas to disperse the crowd of farmers have been holding their demonstrations for months now. Is the secretary of the all india can send Sangharsh Coordination Committee which is supporting the farms and he says it was a strange decision by b j p members to attack the files. It looks like. The ruling party at the Central Government is waging war on the farmers the video will fall more than 50 percent of the population this is bizarre and the farmers are demanding labor. And to battle it out and to contest it on the streets since it was unseen before a government in power today its a reset agenda and the government of the day. Wants to bring in free market in agriculture and far too many be prepared to make culture. For free markets to played out there is too much insecurity in the minds of our. So the farmers want. Law guaranteed there. The ruling party does not want to guarantee and b. Have let their support a small number of then he gets this amount of farmers that is strange and that should not have to be political strategy of the. Its absolutely clear from the wheel that we have seen the using the war cry all the ruling. And the farmers have reacted this time and with great ease and peace the sat together and started to. Seek religion and have refused to engage with the attackers so far is that this is about their level look evil global this was east and care and concern for the rest of the country and in the indian capital of new delhi an explosion has been reported near israels embassy a police say it was a small blast may have been no reports of deaths or injuries. Brings the breaking news now a little bit earlier were talking about how the European Union regulator we are waiting for them to authorize the Astra Zeneca Corona virus vaccine and its now happens they have authorized it and indeed for all adults all over 18 year olds there was some concern that it would not be allowed to be administered to have 65. 00 but it is apparently for all or adults the e. U. Was expecting at least 80000000 doses by the end of march but a week ago actually seneca cut a supply blaming manufacturing issues the European Union has now authorized the vaccine for use in europe in the netherlands the court of appeals has ordered Oil Giant Shell to pay compensation to a group of nigerian farmers they cuse the company of destroying their fishing villages as a result of 3 oil spills it is the 1st time a Dutch Company has been held liable for actions by its foreign subsidiary common interests is falling proceedings from the nigerian capital of a brooch. The people in the niger delta especially communities affected by oil spills over the last 50 years really happy about the verdict of the appeal court in the netherlands a lot of them are saying that this clears the way for them to raise issues of contamination issues of repair relations issues of human rights abuses in the niger delta following years of exploration by or Oil Companies and were looking at probably only a fraction of those almost peel works or other people damage thats being treated right now by both shell and the Nigerian Government al jazeera visited of going he especially the border creeks and other neighboring communities to look at how the oil spills over the years have impacted on the environment and what the company as well as the government i doing to do to remedy the situation. What is educate anything but to flush out the truck or look in border creek. As it all comes to the surface a boom trust the sludge for you back to a ship its a job the contractors hired by all john child must quickly accomplish before the type returns the clean up is due to litigation against the company pulling a Massive Oil Spill in the record in 2009 is couple of days walkies jewel remediated. Polluted areas and bodog. After the next phase will be different story some real budget to sort out among groups and monitoring so far is a 1000. 00 hectares. While shellings contract to say they have done a lot to subsides the Nigerian Government led decontamination effort jointly funded by the Shell Company is off to a slow start. Heavy machinery is now deployed farther inland to excavate and treat contaminated soil we im not to take it for what we had planned but were trying to see what we can do to catch up theres still a lot of work to do to catch up i mean to take. An assessment by the United Nations Environment Program 1st published in 2011 shows that pollution from more than half a century of Oil Production was worse than all regionally thought the report recommended a 1000000000. 00 fund to clean up alone an area covering 1000 square kilometers the work which began success later could take at least 25 years to complete much of a is a wasteland this is dead fish and crustaceans no longer spawn here farmlands fish ponds and even underground Water Supplies have been polluted by hydrocarbons leaking from old pipelines we could play some activists in the region are less impressed with the work so far. Is one. And how many years. And thats not the only concern significant amount of all 3rd continues in the region further complicating the process of reversing the environmental damage experts believe 15 to 20000 square kilometers more of nigerias Oil Producing region require the attention is currently receiving. But they fear that unless the entire region is decontaminated clean up me in the end be a waste of time and resources as re contamination could occur. Well its a very Important Development the. Head of the law school at the university of bradford and member of the state Oil Environment commission joins us on skype from bradford in england 1st to what degree do you think this ruling paves the way for more cases against multinationals large. Hello thank you very much nic for having me on i think this is a really really important decision its a milestone in. Having very often to seek redress in courts in the home countries of the Parent Company of shell and all the multinationals. In all of these this is the 1st that has gone to trial concluded and shall be held accountable for the costs and where the costs of agree that showed was not the issue so i think it creates opportunities for need to go from the niger delta according to some secret press in these court and indeed in order cords and i think its the culmination of a move. Towards more accountability for multinational in the home states simply because in the horse the legal system moves you really are not able to hold the whole of all the more to much not accountable to court so i think this is there we need a really Huge Development indeed its taking off as away from that challenge that we had with about in the us in the eightys the egg and i think the significant development. Of course is the goal for years nearly 50 years more in the pipelines of the still leaking tell us how much the farmers in nigeria have suffered. Oh i think i mean i call a device that is shown on death in the mind i think what is happening in the mind of the impact on the lives and livelihoods of the people is nothing short of an equal fight. You know from the 22 you never report that whats clear is that youre hot and several crimes more to recommend. And that cross the mind of not just you know going the for instance i mean the bios us they. Meant commission which is a neighboring community its a go go nice the same thing is happening you do not need to investigate or. Just not sure. It is in the food it is and that it is in the water of other people drink 8 means that it means the v. It means child who. Does this so for all of the people of the mind of the farmers the fish shop people this is not just about an environmental issue its about their right to life your right to subsistence. We appreciate that head of the law school at University Press who prefer that thank you very much thank you very much. Lets bring you more on the breaking news just a few minutes ago the European Unions Health Regulator recommended authorizing astra zeneca Coronavirus Vaccine for adults lets get over to step in whos outside the medical agency in amsterdam what news of this latest developments that. Well its interesting that the European Medicines Agency has now approved the us to have a vaccine for all age groups so this is the 3rd fact seen that can be used in the European Union against covert 19 there was this talk before that that might be a limited approval so people evolve 65 would not be able to get the vaccine but may has decided not to go along with this spite the fact germany really insisted on this im sorry limit they say that despite the fact that the fact she has been tested only in the groups mostly in groups until 55 years of age they have found enough antibodies in also elderly people who have been given the vaccine also in the u. K. But also in the trial to reassure people above 65 that its safe to use they say there will be more information coming in along in the next couple of weeks so these updates will also maybe reassure people even more that this vaccine is safe to use for everyone basically all age groups or friends of update just of us know.

The elderly especially those in Long Term Care homes have been among the most vulnerable to co the 19 a new report finds the number of nursing home deaths in new york may be much higher than the 8700 state officials have recorded by as much as 50 percent we have to make sense of this we have to get the full truth and we have to make sure it never ever happens again nothing like this happens again and we have to be honest about the numbers the states attorney general faulted the department of health for not including in their tally nursing home residents who died after being moved to hospitals or in the case of 88 year old norman are being taken home who are like you. Just. Made a mistake people who really put people 1st and suffered the most. My distant 2nd here related to the impact of covert 19 on Nursing Homes the report has reignited a controversy that prompted hearings over an order from Governor Andrew Cuomo requiring Nursing Homes to accept patients whod been discharged from hospitals even if they might have the coronavirus Nursing Homes there are a top priority they have been from day one a move the governor defended as necessary to keep hospital beds free but later rescinded saying it wasnt needed the report acknowledges the policy may have contributed to more deaths but also cites a lack of infection controls in Nursing Homes as well as low Staffing Levels and under reporting which some say are the bigger issues the report is obviously devastating and heartbreaking but unfortunately it also make sure the light on what weve known for throughout the pandemic and what we were really trying to call attention to at the very beginning is that for staffing the poor infection show protocols the governor has yet to respond to the findings but his Health Commissioner argues the state has been transparent while the total number of the talibans is unchanged the higher death count in Nursing Homes undermines claims by the governor that new york has been better than other states when it comes to protecting the elderly kristen salumi aljazeera new york oh sure lanka has started its vaccine rollout with a half 1000000 doses donated by india its using the astra zeneca vaccine manufactured by indias Serum Institute the biggest vaccine maker in the world it is involved in whats been called vaccine diplomacy gifting millions of doses to 7 neighboring countries. Now then exports of cherries from chile to china have taken hits appears to be all because of the room an unsubstantiated reports began circulating on chinese social media that traces a coded 19 were found in some boxes of cherries latin america and its only seen human reports now from santiago. All year long producers wait for this moment when their cherries go through the final stage of selection sanitation and packing before being shipped off to china for the chinese this color red brings good fortune so they import cherries mainly from chile to celebrate the Chinese New Year which starts next month but when an unsubstantiated story went viral on chinese social networks last week it brought misfortune to chiles multi 1000000000. 00 cherry industry if the money from us are not the same this was the result of nonofficial information in china a rumor thats provoked a steep drop in demand that our government is working round the clock with the private sector to see what we can do. When claims began circulating that some imported cherries had been found to be tainted with coded 19 overnight exports plummeted from 500. 00 to 0 containers a day australian cherry producers have also been impacted it would not nearly as much as in chile which exports much larger quantities no less will not what weve never been formally accused of anything by chinese symmetry or customs with already stressed a story in the media that was never retracted it ones who suffer most of the small and medium size produces it invested everything they have and we need to do basing basing on a good idea. The president of the Exporters Association says exports are picking up but at the cherries are being sold at a loss and time is running out its summertime in the Southern Hemisphere heads. These carries 3 people leave valuable because they are looked after and ships have a target on the Chinese Market but i like these great these cherries were all in just a matter of weeks. Chile has launched an intense counter offensive in china using intra lancers and scientists on social networks to try to convince consumers that their cherries are safe to eat all this is more than just bad luck it underscores just how vulnerable food exporters are to a negative tweet or story substantiated or not.
