please do tell the w h o things variant. even though it may risk the health of your populations because of the economic damage, then goodness, i'm not a politician. you know, i'm a scientist and a scientist, a medical scientist. it's an everybody, globally interest in our tried to kind of encourage, even as a government immediate publication, but they might be a bit more reluctance. now i don't know. well, it's clear that the vaccination so far on the data seems to be better. the no, no vaccination you have you have the vaccination is 129 percent one dose. was it 25 percent? it's like the around 30 percent vaccination. we have 69 percent here in britain. keep it. what does that show? that co axis failed if you're so low and as regards hesitancy, what is, what is it about the white community? since it's white's that particularly disproportionately hesitant, they don't want to take the vaccine. 75 percent of blacks, only 52 percent of white. one is about white people in south africa. don't want to take the vaccine. let me corr

what the w h o called a synonymy of cases sweeping across the globe. on average 900000 new infections are being reported every day. no continent has been left untouched. many countries, including the us, australia, bolivia, and several jo nations are hitting new records. france, for instance, has reported 208000 new infections, the highest ever recorded in europe. that's to new infections every single 2nd. the government has made masks mandatory outdoors in paris, worried about the economic impacts of forcing millions of people to work from home again, several nations including italy, spain and the united states are shortening quarantine periods and easing isolation . rules. ne barker begins coverage from london. ah, across europe there accuse outside, coven, 19 testing centers. as a surge of corona virus infections takes home here in greece. planned restrictions have been brought forward up to the number of cases more than doubled in a day. the world health organization, the moral conscience of the crisis monk, 2 years since the start of the pandemic,

the w h o chief scientists to me, i saw me. nathan obviously says that innovating pharma companies should put their intellectual property rights in the medicine paper, pulled back by the united nations. is there just too much money to be made by big pharma, from these vaccines and the center from ox firm biotech. modernity is a $1000.00. a profit made every 2nd from coven vaccine? yeah. well, that's the problem. you know, i rewriting article earlier with i said, now the vaccine should not be treated as a commercial commodity because you get, we get into these kind of difficulties. i know there's a problem cuz you do need your funds to do the research to produce the vaccines. and that usually does come from pharma where i think that needs to be some kind of like university funding as well. i should just said the other public well maybe to some extent, but i think for man, okay. all right, mr. organizations as well, which was due for booking the bottom line. i think the important thing is that i think vaccine should not really be

they're the w h o making the point as well, that there is now a twin threat in this pandemic. both delta and all micron causing this surge. dr. tedra, they're giving what may well be the last w h o briefing of the year and using the opportunity to look back at the panoramic look back of the w. i chose roll in the pandemic and reflect a little on, not just where we've come from, but where we need to go. we talked about science leading to solutions, leading to solidarity so that those solutions were shared around the world. and that being the absolute bedrock of the world's effort in tackling the pandemic thus far leading to successes like the vaccines. but of course, as he keeps reminding us, there is the result of vaccine inequality now where the rich world has vaccinated 2 thirds or more of their populations and now well into booster programs lost the developing world. particularly low income countries have barely begun africa. just 7 percent of the population of the whole of africa has received a vaccine so far. so he's warding, there is, look, we've got to deal with inequal

i mean, leave you here on my laptop with a w h o, a home page here. and you can see all of the information about the current virus oven 19 pandemic, including the new variant. thanks for watching everybody. i'll see you next time. the philippines is flashing to restore fire induct saying, i cut the quantity only the night and the wrong one. i wanna invest a guides on al jazeera unless honey, how will host the middle east? well, come in preparation. the country is staging. a major tournament with 16 nations going head to head in thanks purpose bill stadiums. 2022 will keep you across the action as council prepares for the regions biggest ever sporting events that the for our cup on algebra as a cannon ball. i watched these scenes with horror as a kenyan sumani, i feared the backlash, ethnic somalis had long been the target of intimidation and persecution. in kenya, almost every woman was it. mohammed a doubt, travels through his homeland to reveal how his people and family have been subjected to years of brutal discrimination. just typical of the way w

but the w h o insists 2022 must be the year. it comes to an end. ne parker al jazeera london and in the us cases have increased by 60 percent, although hospitalizations and deaths remain low. the centers for disease control and prevention say new infections off being driven by the exceptionally transmissible or mccomb variant bus tend to heidi jackass for his live for us in washington. heidi talks through the latest coven numbers in the states when the lien at the highest daily new case is ever in the u. s. were now at 267 happening now in the north eastern part of the u. s. with places like new york city here in washington, d. c. and surrounding states. people queuing for hours in search of coven tests, and then one in for, in many communities coming back positive. now if there is some silver lining, it's the evidence that here to the omicron variant is resulting in milder infections. because while those cases of jump to some 70 percent since a week ago and number, the hospitalization has not kept pace. that's gone up by just 1

the w h. o confirm confirms ami cronies fasting is spreading rather faster than the previous previously discovered delta variant. but they say its severity remains unclear. the variant has now been discovered in nearly 90 countries and numbers arising in the us as well as both the delta and army from variance continue to spread. the overall number of confirmed infections past 50000000 on saturday, with some experts fearing that the country's already overburdened health care system is at risk of collapse. polls have opened in hong kong 1st parliamentary elections since a crackdown on the pro democracy movement by bay. ching observers are expecting a relatively low turnout as many hong kong residents say. the process is neither fair nor democratic. it's the 1st legislative council elections since paging, imposed to sweeping national security law and reformed the electoral system. under the new rules, only candidates considered patriotic to china. can rum, many opposition candidates have been sil

however, the w h o suggested that was because of increased opening our policies into increased social interaction. after the, the coven measures the been put in place for the last 18 months. they said that was likely, but they did note that serious infections and death are remaining very steady and relatively low at the moment. and they said that's a sign that current policies are working. we've also seen countries like the philippines who have had a relatively low vaccination rates, trying to push vaccination drives, or they were aiming for a 9000000 people vaccinated in 3 days. they only managed to get 7.6, but i think it's a sign in this region that in many countries where the omni cron variant hasn't yet been detected, they are acutely aware of the fact that the one thing that's really going to stop this or it they probably won't be able to stop it at the borders, but the one thing from stopping at spreading as delta has in this region, or will be widespread vaccinations and boost to programs that however, is going to be a complication because many countries here had problems gett

ah, ah, ah, we have reports of over 38 countries in all 6 w h o regions. and we do see increasing trending on the current in south africa. the army kron variance of corona virus fuels a 4th wave in south africa, the world health organization. since the strain appears to be more infectious, but there's no need to panic, awe alone. welcome on pete, adobe. you're watching al jazeera life from the also coming up. iran's chief negotiator tells our to 0 that world powers must accept its proposals during talks in vienna. if it wants to revive the nuclear deal, ukraine warns russia could launch a military offensive by the end of next month. moscow says that's nonsense. also, i had more desperate times to come. for many refugees in greece, stuck in the bitter cold was the government restricts food and money. ah, south africa has entered a 4th wave of corona virus driven largely by the army cron variance of corona virus . the government says it has the resources to deal with the search in cases, but infections are growing. officials are concerned about the number of

the best tools to tackle them the w h o. it's going to be holding a press conference later on today. we might get indications on one or 2 of those on says in that press conference. but essentially what people are saying is you can have to wait for. ready further studies to be done. one thing that w i show is a little wary off and they've been saying this over the last couple of days is this kind of blankets move towards travel restrictions that so many countries have been engaged in over the last few days. spooks, by all micron, japan and israel of both say that they are going to be closing their borders to all foreigners. and other countries are not going that far, but are bringing in many travel restrictions because of all make on the w h. i say hold on, he got to be aware that things like that blanket bands on travel. they have their own impacts as well. you have to be able to take those into consideration. what we, thanks very much indeed does re challenge bring this update from london. nigeria has detected its 1st cases

the advice from the w h o. do it all, pull brennan, al jazeera, london, a british m p.

the w h o warns wealthy countries could be prolonging the pandemic. as israel says it will offer a force coven shot. and the armor con variant pushes new u. k. infections past the 100000. but new studies show it's less likely than delta to put people in hospital.
