1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,800 Speaker 1: Devin Gray, are UK correspondent, is back from his holiday 2 00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:06,600 Speaker 1: al Logevin Hiver have now tell me about this measles 3 00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:08,079 Speaker 1: outbreak in London. How bad is this? 4 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's getting pretty serious and it appears to be 5 00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:15,239 Speaker 2: mostly over children that have not been fully immunized, and 6 00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 2: that's why the authorities are trying to really publicize this 7 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:21,080 Speaker 2: to say that people, look, if you're in the UK, 8 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:24,320 Speaker 2: you should have the immunization, and particularly in North London 9 00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:27,280 Speaker 2: where now dozens of people from a number of different 10 00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 2: schools have contracted measles and it looks like one in 11 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 2: five of them are being admitted to hospital. It's a 12 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 2: very fast spreading measles outbreak. It is I think particularly 13 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 2: unpleasant this particular strain, and the local doctors are saying 14 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 2: people need to get this immunization done quickly because otherwise 15 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,960 Speaker 2: things are getting out of hand here, they reckon. They've 16 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 2: had ninety six total cases confirmed in England for the 17 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 2: first month of the year alone, and normally that figure 18 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:01,279 Speaker 2: is much much lower. But of course there have been 19 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 2: constant concerns about vaccinations, and indeed we've seen that uncertainly 20 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,839 Speaker 2: come out of America too, haven't we that concerns about 21 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 2: vaccinations and other side effects that they may have. The 22 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 2: Health Service here saying they are they are safe, they 23 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 2: are the best way of dealing with this and people 24 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 2: should have the MMR doses that three dose in one 25 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 2: vaccination as soon as they could possibly get it. 26 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: What do you make of this Olympic T shirt problem? 27 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 2: Very very interesting stories. So the Olympic Games and the IOC, 28 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 2: the International Olympic Committee, are selling as part of its 29 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 2: merchandise a so called heritage collection and that celebrates styles 30 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 2: from all the different editions of the games. And each 31 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 2: of the posters for each of the games is available 32 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 2: on separate T shirts. Now, guess which one has sold out? Well, 33 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 2: one of the ones that sold out is the nineteen 34 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 2: thirty six Berlin Olympic Games. Now you'll remember they were 35 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 2: used by Adolf Hitler and Nazis for propaganda, and people 36 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 2: are saying, hang, you shouldn't have this as a poster 37 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 2: because it was a disgraced games as such, And of 38 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:16,079 Speaker 2: course what Hitler wanted to do was to glorify Nazi 39 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 2: Germany on the international stage and promote his ideals of 40 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 2: racious supremacy, which of course was rather pricked when Jesse Owens, 41 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 2: an African American track and field athlete, won four golds 42 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 2: in the nineteen thirty six Games. But they're selling these 43 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 2: T shirts and they have sold out, and some are saying, 44 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 2: you know what, you really should have thought about the 45 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 2: why the implication of selling the Berlin T shirt. And 46 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,359 Speaker 2: I think it should be something that you don't go 47 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 2: into reprint and you should have an investigation about why 48 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,519 Speaker 2: that was one of the so called heritage collection. 49 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 1: I see, Okay, so that's cracked down on vaping. Is 50 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 1: this about full noise or is this a good idea? 51 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 2: I think lots of people are sort of suddenly realizing 52 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 2: that vaping, yep, might help you quit smoking. But a 53 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 2: few the medics here are saying, but it can cause 54 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 2: its own health problems, we fear. And I was driving 55 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 2: behind somebody who was vaping in their car with the 56 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,239 Speaker 2: window open. The amount of smoke coming out, I thought 57 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 2: it was going to catch fire or something in the car. 58 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,839 Speaker 2: It was just incredible. But anyway, it has helped lots 59 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 2: of people stop smoking. But health chiefs say we need 60 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 2: some action to protect children and vulnerable people from breathing 61 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 2: in secondhand smoke, even from a vape and so what 62 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 2: they're looking at is to ban people vaping in cars 63 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 2: carrying children, ban vaping in playgrounds and outside schools, and 64 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 2: smoking is also going to be banned outside hospitals and 65 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 2: other health facilities. It's already banned in them, of course, 66 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 2: but vaping will be allowed in those areas because they're 67 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 2: trying to encourage people to give up smoking proper. So 68 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,119 Speaker 2: it is an extension of the smoking band we've seen 69 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 2: which has been really massive here in the UK across 70 00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 2: all public transport and workplaces, and really restrict them in 71 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 2: social environments too. But to extend it with the vaping 72 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 2: as well, it is going to be very difficult to police. 73 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 2: That's always been the argument. But actually, do you know what, 74 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 2: I think most people seem to be respecting it. Kevin. 75 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: It is very nice to have you back, Welcome back 76 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: and look forward to chatting you in a couple of days.
