sonora have joined the protests demanding an end to coronavirus restrictions many cities and states have been tightening their lock downs as hospitals are stretched to capacity but the president has repeatedly opposed lock down saying they are necessary and are hurting the economy more than 1100 people don't have died of covert 19 in just the past 24 hours it has become brazil's deadliest week since the beginning of the pandemic. in fact that fast escalating number of deaths is more than anywhere else in the world 12000 in the past week 100000 deaths in brazil's and the beginning of this year alone current surge is being driven by a more infectious variant of the virus that was 1st detected in the amazon region more with daniel on this story hi daniel it is understandable that people are sick of lockdowns and sick of the isolation that they've gone through for a year but those numbers in brazil they kind of tell you all you need to know. more they do don't make a mound you would imagine that the more severe the more drastic those numbers become the more horrendous the images that we're seeing right across brazil as those that variance that p one variant takes hold the more people would comply with the measures designed to try to fight the pandemic but it doesn't seem to be going that way i mean millions of brazilians do but there are also millions of brazilians tens of thousands as we saw earlier on on sunday out on the streets defying those measures saying that they support president jarba also noddle who has always had a very lax a days ago attitude towards the pandemic he had himself but he's always said it's nothing worse than a little flu and i asked brazilians to stop moaning about it so they're out there supporting him waving the brazilian flag waving where in the brazilian national. saying they don't intend to comply with those measures and we have seen in the last day or 2 hundreds of brazilians attending parties one broken up by this low police over 600 people there in a room without windows with the doors closed many of them not wearing masks one of the party goers films coming out of that building after the police the police raid was quoted as saying. we know it's risky we know are infecting our families but we pay our taxes and we have the right to do to do what we want to live our lives how we want so that seems to be the attitude among many and this was one of many parties that were broken up over the weekend one was attended over 200 or so people and a clandestine casino one of them the brazilian national for a lot of also our other brazilian celebrities and then as i said these thousands of people out on the streets in the south paolo around brazil in the capital brasilia supporting the president while the numbers keep going up while we have nurses doctors collapsing literally collapsing through exhaustion. in treating these this wave 'd of coronavirus sufferers with regards to the restrictions. daniel is this similar to what we see in the united states with the regions of the us that states have their own rules and abilities to make their own shutdowns and. the sort of almost doesn't matter what the actual federal presidents. very much so especially in the state of south power which is the most populous state in brazil something like 44000000 inhabitants making it bigger than many countries and also the city of cell power or a very densely populated city but the governor there. has gone out of his way to oppose president job orsen are now being talked about as a political opponent perhaps in future elections and he has tried to impose measures he's the one that's behind this 15 days of tight knot then emergency measures he calls them in the next 15 days in sao paolo and many of those protesters out on the streets projecting their anger many of the banners been opposing him they've been projecting their anger towards the governor. mr doria so that's been the problem it's become a very polarized political fight by the supporting your regional governor or the president of the nation job also not all interesting stuff thank you reporting there. we're looking at protests

situation the u.k. based astra zeneca has defended its vaccine saying that safety data collected with 17000000 doses administered so far shows no evidence of increased risk of palmeri embolisms or thrombosis pending further investigation the european medicines agency says the benefits of the vaccine outweigh the risks and the world health organization says it's rollout should continue it really doesn't mean that it is potentially unsafe it is been tested widely have been no reported problems beyond what you would normally expect with a vaccine with any you at sea and really the occurrence of these. cox is no greater in the vaccinated population ran it is in the unvaccinated. so why why regulators in these countries are taking no chances and beyond being extremely cautious. is not really clear inevitably now concerns will linger the oxford astra zeneca vaccine has been beset by problems including political disputes and delivery delays now add safety concerns it's important to note

by lightly deny women their life liberty what the police did yesterday with the excessive use of force was to demonstrate the very patriarchal structure that oppress women and bear in mind that what

alaska won't be a social call we intend to raise and we will raise the host of issues some of which have already been touched on today that concern us we'll also explore whether there are avenues for cooperation and we'll talk about the competition that we have in china with china to make sure that the united states has a level playing field and that our companies and workers benefit from that

that it's clear that joe biden isn't going to russia and china. and he's not going to rush to try to solve every problem as i said understands that he needs to deal with the chinese from a position of great a relative strength if he's going to. be able to. move chinese decision making and policies in directions that they may not necessarily want to go u.s. officials say the meeting and anchorage in

state department. britain's foreign secretary says it is unacceptable that iran is pursuing a 2nd case against an ins a gallery ratcliffe she is of course the british iranian woman who has been detained in iran since 2016 and has now appeared in court on a new charge one of propaganda against the system as an unfinished her previous 5 year sentence for a separate conviction only last week here is her husband richard ratcliffe who says the treatment against the name is tantamount to torture. this is been a 5 year ordeal where she had one on for charge country and it we never knew one that has carried a huge toll on her we last week submitted to the british government you know how medical pointing out that her treatment is tantamount to torture and yeah i i do worry for her the longer this ordeal continues how long it'll take put the pieces back together so i think that last name is being held over a british. government dispute over money she's a hostage in albany and i would like the government to make it clear that that is unacceptable. they should be getting home but they should also be make it absolutely clear that you cannot shoot an innocent person. is out rutty different things they could do 10 to distant had instances taking. and we'll see which ones the military courts the most recent request we had was for them to tantrum what happened and that they declined to company her and we will see i mean if manage the bunch of you can very strong it is evident in his statements today condemning the court appearance but we'll see what happens in the coming days and i think there's been a reluctance on the part of most western governments to what to call it hostage taking to acknowledge that states can do it in the top states but certainly iran practice it more and more and certainly a reluctance to work to challenge the practice so the british government from students will prefer to talk about consular cases and treat nothing like she's a regular case with british and that's got into trouble overseas and need some help so i think there is an interim estate and there is a need to look at what are the reasons why iran is taking us just in and addressed those and then also look at the distance in devising the practice of the moment it's a reason effective tactic we're in the thirty's and that's what's grown. now the sandy led coalition says

financial scandal involving several of its federal parliamentarians here in berlin and growing concern across the country of their management of the corona pandemic. we see of course that the population is growing dissatisfied and also lacking understanding among citizens about the corona crisis management peoples and patients is growing which i can understand personally therefore everyone who is now responsible has to critically question themselves again although sunday's election was only in 2 states in the southwest one analyst told me what happened there will resonate national. it is not just about this it is a feeling that powers as you put it into powers of the whole country. that's. give us a good glimpse into. internet the state of affairs of the general electorate it's a glimpse of the christian democrats may not like the look of having shed many votes in sunday's state elections they must find a vote a winner for september's general election with angle americal rule
