Well, its looking like the f. D. A. In america is probably going to be making an announcement round about the 17th of december. And if thats the case, and if thats positive, then these vaccines are going to be shipped literally within hours, as weve just heard on that report. Now in terms of the european situation, the europeans measured medicines agency, typically this can take months or even up to a year to approve a new vaccine. So we really are in unprecedented territory here. And its going to be remarkably interesting to see what sort of timelines they come up with. But i think we can rest assured that they will be working flat out on this. Theyll be doing a lot more. A lot of hard work on the fires that are not important. Remember, its a rolling program, so they have access to much more information than we have pfizer mid and it will be reporting to them on a daily basis with the latest information will have all the latest information at their fingertips. But of course, this is not pay reviewed yet while were going on so far the press releases. So we have the press releases in the public domain. The information that the Drug Companies are going to be feeding directly to the regulator or thora this, but we dont yet have a peer review. So i suspect the European Agency will be reporting on this. I would estimate round about mate, said late december. So it is feasible that europeans could be getting injected potentially with both of these vaccines. So im going to some people, so im going to the people in 2020 that is quite conceivable. The main part of the rollout though is going to be in 2021. And this isnt going to make a huge difference to her community and the amount of restrictions that we have to live with realistically until about march. April may even even some in time. So mature, pretty major on that. Ok, let me just interrupt you there. So march april may start out sort of the time when we can expect you, and i can expect to get our shots. Well, some, some people will be vaccinated in 2020, then theyll be 1st responders, high risk people, health care providers. I would expect them to get vaccinated in january, february time, and that could well be complete by about the end of january. For you and me as ordinary members of the public. Its just a case of how quick this can be rolled out in the code. Changes need to be facilitated. So i would estimate that you would be a public going to be vaccinated, march april time, Something Like that. And its going to make a difference to the way we live by some a time. So by the start of next summer, were going to have the warmer weather, which is going to help. And then we go drive a significant number of people vaccinated this going to start making a big difference to this pandemic. And im hoping things are going to be pretty well back to normal by this time next year. Thats the anticipation and the such large numbers of people involved here. So many people need vaccinated starting with the essential work because then the higher its people and then the rest of the public. And then herd immunity will progressively develop out of the 2021 as a result. Of the vaccination program. Ok. John, you talked about had immunity. We, we had a boom. This week in germany say they had just over half of germans. Well, i actually willing to get this solved. What do you think about, what could you tell these people about the safety of this vaccine . Well, the reason that the medan to release their information yesterday was that was 2 months after the last people had their 2nd dose. So its nice that 2 months safety requirement, so its looking at the safe. What these regulators do is they look at the safety not immediately after the shot, but 2 months after the shot. So they can say its safe to months after the shot and bear in mind theres been 30000. 00, people in this trial and 15000 have had the vaccine. So even a loads, only 196 people have actually had the infection. Weve got safety data now from 15000 people, and of course that is growing all the time. And this was one of the vaccine is rolled out once it is approved. Now its not going to stop will be ongoing monitoring all of this. Now of course we cant say that people wont develop late side effects up to 3 months, or 4 months or 5 months, but we know from previous vaccination that, thats very unlikely. Most of the side effects that are going to develop will be recognizable within that 2 months. So personally for me and my family, id be more than happy to have it once its been officially recognized. Can we say its safe . Well, no, we cant say its safe to say its overwhelmingly likely to be safe. Yes. Or believe we can. Theres never guarantees and health care, anything that you gave that has a death in effect, is going to have a potential side effect. And of course, this is a new technology, these m. R. A. Vaccines messenger r. N. A. Vaccines have never been used before. Its a brand new technology, but so far its looking very clean. Its looking very efficient and its looking very safe from all the data that we have an hour and i feel confident the regulators are all for it is that well move on this because its a risk benefit analysis. We can go on living as we are now with these repeated waves of coronavirus, with the deaths, with the financial impairment with the lock down. You know, the overall risks from the vaccine look like being much less than carrying on living as we are. So i think theyre going to go for it. Don, thank you very much, dr. John campbell, the health and i list from United Kingdom code 19 has dominated headlines this year. But there is another pandemic that still affects and kills millions of people around the world. The United Nations figures show that 38000000 people were living with a tri, v. Aids. Last year, nearly 700000 of them died as a result of the hiv infection. But prevention and treatment measures are showing promise. In the last decade, the number of new infections has decreased and so has the number of people whose death was caused directly by aids or factors related to the immune deficiency syndrome. Yet experts predict that trends will reverse this year because of the covert, 19 pandemic. And lock downs causing for example, a shortage of hiv medication thats estimated there could be an additional 1400000. 00 deaths caused by hiv. As a result in south africa, one in 5 people has a child. The new drug, however, is raising hopes for more effective prevention. As our correspondent allien things reports from cape town for almost 2 decades, the Nonprofit Organization hope has been an important point of contact for those living with hiv. Like here in the cape town, township of guilt. Trip 2 years ago, luis morris worked in a textile factory, but then her life took a difficult turn. An accident left her unable to work out who problems followed, and then she became infected with hiv. But my family didnt want to have anything to do with me. After my h. I. V. Diagnosis. They cut off contact. And even now if my neighbors knew that i have a hiv, they would only say hi from a distance. They wouldnt invite me to their homes. It means i also keep my distance, its not easy being a hiv positive, you have to somehow accept that people behave in a certain way towards you. I find it sad. Dr. Hughes on rainy could, is used to hearing similar stories. At least hoffa of the community has a Family Member that somebody that they know that they should be positive, but its but its so common here. But people dont speak about it. They people, they think theyre not open about it. They might speak to us about it and i might speak to the Service Providers about it, but they will, they finitely not speak. They, theyre not open about the status. They worried about discrimination. Although stigma still a massive problem in many communities, south africa has made mess of progress in the fight against hiv aids. Over the past years, most people, the vast majority of those living with hiv, you know, their status and are on medication. And just recently, researchers announced possibly for the good news. The preventative drug prep has been available for several years around 90000, South Africans protect themselves against hiv infection by taking a daily tablet. Now a study into a similar preventative drug that needs to only be injected every 8 weeks, has found it to be even more efficient. Women particularly have many challenges with taking a pill a day. Issues of their habits of taking a pill, but also people experience a lot of social pressures. So women are judged as living with hiv. If theyre taking pills that look like antiretrovirals, they may have judgments about their sexual activity. And partners may feel that they are wanting to be unfaithful, so there are many barriers to taking a pill a day. And what the injections were able to do is overcome some of those challenges by being discreet and convenient. Independent researchers also see the injection as an important development, but further research is necessary to find other options to prevent hiv in women. Young women are the hardest hit group in south africa. Do you really want to harm in some you know, so he seems to have hopefully in cape town also believes the injection could be a great help, but it may not be available for a number of years. In the meantime, more argent issues remain due to the covered spend their make fewer hiv patients are going to kleenex. As a result, the number of new infections, a new born says on the rice, a worrying trend. After all, the hard work to stop the spread of the virus. Other things are reporting there from cape town. Im now joined by stefan exocrine show. Hes the executive director of the aids charity one here in germany. How concerned are we are you if were looking at research that now resources are being pulled away from h. R. B aids because of the corona virus pandemics. I am very word. Youre for the grown up endemic struggles to set back. Yes, of painstaking progress and the fight against a chevy chase. And we have also seen over the last yes, that funding for the ace response has does declined, and the needs i am. Ence unites calculates that, we need an additional 26000000000. 00 us dollars to for the extra spawns. And of course now we also have immense funding needs for the corona of a cogent response. But what we, what we really must ensure must not happen is that we play off one pandemic against the other. Both threatening, both are important and both need urgently to be funded as well if. But if were looking at those 2 pandemics, theres a vaccination on the way folk ovids, and has been around for nearly 40 years, and theres still no vaccination inside. Whys that . Well, 1st, i think you cannot. You cannot compare the 2 myerss against each of us, of may know there are differences that make it different to develop a vaccine. But it also, i think, shows what is fundamentally wrong. I think that is, if you know, because there are, i would say so many more threatened by the koran of virus in rich countries. The resources that are court into recent research and development of corona vaccine, much, much higher than we see being invested in a vaccine against a set of yates. So it actually shows what is possible and what would be possible with the riots political will and the right funding behind. It could be a lesson learned, i think for. d our fight against the ace we have the tools, we know what to do. We just need more political will and as always, also more. d funny, you dont look political will there . Of course. What is your or your key demands towards a policy maker is well, there are 3 things that i would ask policymakers at your undertake 1st of all. As i said before, we do urgently need more funding for the a sponge. Funding has gone gone down over the last 2 years that needs to be reversed. Again. We need an additional 26000000000. 00 us dollars for the s response in 2020 alone. So urgently, urgently need more funding 2nd. We must ensure that obviously makers prioritize those hit hardest and those most vulnerable men who have sex with men, drug users who inject drugs. But also that was also already set a young women aids is still the number one killer of women under 50 worldwide it. So we need to ensure that we especially target those most vulnerable and 3rd. We need to ensure that we unlock more sustainable funding and also strengthen health systems. We need also more. d domestic financing, so you know, budgets of countries hit hardest by the pandemic into health, into health systems, but also, and the response to the next a closer to one here in germany. Thank you very much for talking to us here. Indeed w. News. Thank you. Eastern europe is the region that with the worlds Fastest Growing h. I. V. Epidemic over the past decade, new infections in the region have risen by almost 30 percent. One country thats bucking that trend is ukraine, where improved testing and treatment is helping people to live life to the full did of his knee, calmly talk to 3 ukrainians about how v changed their lives. Have had a lot of nos in my life because of my h. I. V. Status and i thought hiv was something that only affected prostitutes and drug addicts. And that if you were quite normal, nothing bad could happen. But i didnt go and i will never tell anyone about this. That was my 1st reaction to my age. Have a positive test results. Ive had a chinese since i was born. My dad died of aids when i was 7. A year later, my mum told me i had a child. As a kid, you dont get what everyone else is thinking that your life is over, that youre going to die. My mum told me id have to take pills and that was it. Borger. 3. I didnt because my partner became seriously ill and the doctors didnt have a clue. One day, the man i was dating decided to take off the condom without telling me a month or so. Later i had tonsilitis and a rash. I just remember thinking, i know what this is, the pitiful id had enough of keeping it secret. So i decided to tell my classmates at college. Yes, i may try to be positive. I ended up telling everyone, maybe i was just lucky, but the reactions were great, and i ended up going out with the prettiest girl in our group, which was what the one in the 21st century age doesnt have to be a game changer. If everyone has access to testing and treatment, this disease is manageable problem with visits, even i get messages from other people with hiv, thanking me for speaking out about my status. Theyll tell you that theyve had hiv for 10 years, but only their mothers know what. So many people are giving up on themselves and their lives. Theyre convinced that theyll never have a serious relationship or a decent job. They just end up cutting themselves off from everything. I tried to show them that its not the age or the status thats doing that to their lives. Its their fears that are the problem with. Theres no reason to give up.

Each of our tractors is loaded with russians for up to 4 months until the time the government reverses these new agricultural laws, none of us will go back.

I want to tell the citizens and farmers no doubt about from the banks of the river ganges. And the holy city of daraa nasi, that we are working with intentions, which are as pure as the water of the river ganges. And without any intention of betrayal, modis government says the laws give farmers the freedom to sell their crops to private bias rather than through the state. They insist the laws will drive up prices. But the pharmacy remain unconvinced. But we have always suspected the governments intentions because they have become a slave of the corporations.
