The spread of birth defects possibly linked to the Zika

virus is now a global health emergency.

:00:11.:00:13.

Following thousands of cases in South America,

:00:14.:00:15.

the World Health Organisation warns that action is essential on a bigger

A coordinated international response is needed to minimise the threat in

coordinated and fast-tracked Our first report this evening

:02:21.:02:28.

is from the city of Recife in north-east Brazil,

:02:29.:02:32.

one of the worst-affected regions, from where our science editor

:02:33.:02:33.

David Shukman sent this report. A young woman, four months pregnant,

she says, because she has aches and a rash, which are also

indicators of the virus. Here at the epicentre

of the outbreak, the worst This woman says nobody knows if Zika

:03:22.:03:23.

affects just the beginning What's so disturbing about what's

:03:24.:03:31.

happening here is that the women are turning up with a lot of highly

:03:32.:03:43.

personal, very pressing questions Above all, what damage could Zika do

:03:44.:03:45.

to their babies? The painful moment when test results

are handed out. Evidence is growing that the virus

of killing the mosquitoes that carry the virus,

have a new power - The key is public support,

the fight against the insects. The reality is that wherever

:05:59.:06:05.

you have got a sweltering tropical climate, water everywhere,

:06:06.:06:07.

and poor sanitation, it's going to be almost impossible

:06:08.:06:09.

to wipe out the mosquitoes. But that means that whatever

:06:10.:06:13.

international action is taken, one thing is clear -

Recife in Brazil. The alert by the World Health

:06:39.:06:46.

Organisation puts the Zika threat Dr Margaret Chan said

:06:47.:06:49.

it was an extraordinary event which needed a coordinated

:06:50.:06:53.

international response. An emergency meeting

:06:54.:06:55.

of the WHO was held today in Geneva, as our global health correspondent

:06:56.:06:58.

Tulip Mazumdar reports. There haven't been any confirmed

:06:59.:07:07.

cases of microcephaly here in El Salvador so far

:07:08.:07:09.

but officials aren't There's still no scientific proof

:07:10.:07:11.

that Zika causes the birth defect, but the World Health Organisation

says a causal link is strongly The recent cluster of microcephaly

constitutes a public health The WHO had been under a lot

:07:39.:07:40.

of pressure to deal with this situation quickly after it was

:07:41.:07:49.

severely criticised for its response The agency said that didn't

:07:50.:07:51.

impact its decision today and that this is a global emergency

:07:52.:07:59.

that needs a global response. The Zika virus is not considered

:08:00.:08:04.

particularly harmful to most people. It is babies and families in Brazil

:08:05.:08:10.

who are bearing the brunt of this It is unclear how and why Zika

:08:11.:08:14.

could be affecting pregnant women and their unborn children

:08:15.:08:20.

in such a devastating way. Zika is spread by mosquitoes that

:08:21.:08:33.

thrive in tropical climates. They are the same insects that

:08:34.:08:35.

spread dengue and yellow fever. Preparations for Rio's

:08:36.:08:38.

carnival are in full swing. The World Health Organisation says

:08:39.:08:40.

there is no need to restrict travel or trade, but the agency did say

:08:41.:08:42.

pregnant women may wish to delay There is no chance the Zika virus

:08:43.:08:46.

will spread in the UK. There is no human to human

:08:47.:08:55.

transfer of infection. You have to have that particular

:08:56.:08:58.

species of mosquito to spread the disease and we do not

:08:59.:09:00.

have it here in the UK. Brazil is leading the fight

:09:01.:09:04.

against this outbreak. But the WHO has now called

:09:05.:09:07.

for a co-ordinated international response with an urgent call

:09:08.:09:09.

for more research into vaccines and cures to try and ensure more

:09:10.:09:12.

children don't have to face Our science editor David

:09:13.:09:15.

Shukman is in Recife. What is your assessment of the

:09:16.:09:38.

latest response there by the Brazilian authorities? The first

:09:39.:09:45.

thing to say is that the numbers are frankly all over the place, they are

:09:46.:09:50.

disputed. Today Brazil's health minister said he thought the crisis

:09:51.:09:54.

was being underreported because so many people who get the virus don't

:09:55.:09:58.

show symptoms things could be worse than anyone thought. Some scientists

:09:59.:10:02.

say that if you look at the numbers there haven't been that many

:10:03.:10:06.

confirmed cases where a mother has Zika, passed it to the baby and the

:10:07.:10:10.

baby was born with those birth defects, so there is a huge amount

:10:11.:10:19.

of work to do. Scientists in Recife think the problem may be seasonable

:10:20.:10:22.

-- seasonal because in December there was a huge number of birth

:10:23.:10:27.

defects but in recent weeks very few new cases are coming forward. That

:10:28.:10:32.

sounds like good news and in many ways it is, but we are just coming

:10:33.:10:36.

into the rainy season which means more mosquito is, more infection and

:10:37.:10:41.

more risk of birth defects down the track. The huge amount of work to

:10:42.:10:47.

do, and that is where the WHO comes in, it should unleash more funding

:10:48.:10:54.

for those who most need it, pregnant women. Thank you.

:10:55.:10:59.

And to find out more about the Zika virus or you want advice,

:11:00.:11:03.

you can find out much more on our website at bbc.co.uk/news.

:11:04.:11:10.

Scientists in Britain have for the first time been given formal

:11:11.:11:12.

approval to genetically modify human embryos.

:11:13.:11:17.

The fertility regulator the HFEA has granted permission for the technique

:11:18.:11:21.

to be used in a study in London to help study

:11:22.:11:24.

Critics are warning it's the first step towards legalising

:11:25.:11:27.

Our medical correspondent Fergus Walsh has the story.

:11:28.:11:35.

Creating human life in a dish - scientists have been able to do that

:11:36.:11:39.

for decades, but now they can go a step further,

:11:40.:11:41.

Researchers in London will be using donated embryos left over

:11:42.:11:49.

from IVF, which will only be allowed to develop for a few days and never

:11:50.:11:52.

It's the first time a project like this has been approved

:11:53.:12:02.

It's really important for understanding basic biology

:12:03.:12:07.

of a human embryo and it has all sorts of potential clinical

:12:08.:12:10.

benefits in terms of better IVF and avoiding

:12:11.:12:12.

Emma endured four miscarriages in the space of a year.

:12:13.:12:18.

For her, like many women, the causes will remain a mystery.

:12:19.:12:25.

I find it frustrating that I never had answers as to why I kept

:12:26.:12:30.

miscarrying so if this research had come earlier and could help me

:12:31.:12:32.

provide answers, then I guess it could maybe have saved

:12:33.:12:35.

Only the area in green will go on to form the foetus.

:12:36.:12:44.

Scientists will edit the genes of those cells to see what faults

:12:45.:12:47.

Gene editing is cheap, simple, and accessible to scientists

:12:48.:12:57.

It scans our DNA, reading the code, looking for the error.

:12:58.:13:06.

Then it uses molecular scissors to snip through those strands,

:13:07.:13:08.

switching off the faulty gene, or enabling a healthy

:13:09.:13:10.

Both techniques have the potential to treat

:13:11.:13:21.

For some, today's decision is the slippery slope

:13:22.:13:26.

which will inevitably lead to designer humans and eugenics.

:13:27.:13:31.

In fact, gene editing is already being used to change all types

:13:32.:13:34.

of life and that may raise more pressing concerns.

:13:35.:13:39.

It has huge ramifications on the environment, in terms

:13:40.:13:42.

of insects and animals and so on, plants.

:13:43.:13:49.

It has huge ramifications in terms of how you develop biological

:13:50.:13:52.

Those are the things I think we need to concentrate on.

:13:53.:13:56.

We get hung up on the idea that somehow people are going

:13:57.:13:59.

Never happened and I don't think it will happen in the near future.

:14:00.:14:03.

It may take years before this research leads to better fertility

:14:04.:14:05.

treatments, but across every field of science, gene editing

:14:06.:14:08.

Improving human health is just a part of that.

:14:09.:14:19.

Proposals for a new settlement between the UK and the

:14:20.:14:24.

European Union will be tabled tomorrow by the president

:14:25.:14:26.

of the European Council, Donald Tusk.

:14:27.:14:27.

He said there'd been good progress in talks between the two sides,

:14:28.:14:30.

but stressed there were still outstanding issues to be addressed.

:14:31.:14:32.

David Cameron is trying to renegotiate the terms of the UK's

:14:33.:14:35.

membership ahead of a possible referendum in June, as our deputy

:14:36.:14:38.

political editor James Landale reports.

:14:39.:14:46.

There is some flash photography in this report. This morning tired

:14:47.:14:51.

British negotiators headed back to Brussels for another day of talks.

:14:52.:14:56.

Any chance of success? They hope so, because tomorrow they'll earn just

:14:57.:14:59.

what their months of hard work have produced. Around noon, Donald Tusk,

:15:00.:15:05.

the Polish President of the EU council, will publish the detailed

:15:06.:15:08.

proposals for reforming the EU that he and David Cameron have been

:15:09.:15:13.

discussing for days. Showing a confidence that they now think a

:15:14.:15:18.

deal can be done. The key issue is what mechanism they've agreed to try

:15:19.:15:22.

to deter EU migrants from arriving at ports and airports across the

:15:23.:15:26.

country, by reducing the benefits they can claim while working. The

:15:27.:15:31.

current option is for a so-called emergency brake. This would allow

:15:32.:15:36.

the Government to restrict the benefits of EU migrants who've got a

:15:37.:15:41.

job for up to four years. But the Government can only do this when the

:15:42.:15:43.

numbers were so high that pressure was being put on public services.

:15:44.:15:47.

The European Commission says that threshold has already been met, so

:15:48.:15:51.

some people this their hope they can pull this brake immediately after a

:15:52.:15:55.

referendum. But the crucial details of who apply this is brake and when

:15:56.:16:00.

and for how long are still up for negotiation ahead of a crucial

:16:01.:16:05.

summit in two weeks' time. What seems to be on offer is a brake that

:16:06.:16:09.

the Eurocrats are going to control. They will determine whether it is

:16:10.:16:15.

two, four years or seven years. The British penal want to be in control.

:16:16.:16:19.

Some nations fear their citizens could lose benefits unfairly if the

:16:20.:16:23.

EU's commitment to the free movement of labour is watered down. This

:16:24.:16:32.

negotiation with the UK cannot be at any price, because to help Cameron

:16:33.:16:36.

to win this referendum we cannot do it at the price of destroying all

:16:37.:16:43.

the rest of what is our thinking. But it's not just welfare changes

:16:44.:16:48.

that the Government is seeking. It wants greater protection for the

:16:49.:16:50.

City of London by giving countries outside the eurozone the power to

:16:51.:16:54.

challenge decisions made by those within it. It wants more powers for

:16:55.:16:58.

Westminster and other Parliaments to block EU laws and opt out of greater

:16:59.:17:02.

integration. And it wants the EU to be more competitive so it is easier

:17:03.:17:07.

for the UK to export its goods and services. So Westminster is braced

:17:08.:17:12.

for a big day tomorrow, when it finally cease what reforms the Prime

:17:13.:17:15.

Minister may deliver and judge if they are enough to win a referendum.

:17:16.:17:23.

Tonight more details are emerging of this draft deal. If a majority of

:17:24.:17:28.

national Parliaments, 55%, think some new EU law stinks they will get

:17:29.:17:32.

a new power to block that law and they'll have three months to make up

:17:33.:17:36.

their minds. But also tonight a question mark over the timing of

:17:37.:17:40.

this referendum. The SNP have launched a cross-party campaign to

:17:41.:17:43.

oppose having a referendum in June. They think it might clash with other

:17:44.:17:50.

elections in May. And if Labour join that campaign, potentially the Prime

:17:51.:17:52.

Minister could face a pretty tricky vote in the months to come. James,

:17:53.:17:56.

thank you. Our Europe editor Katya

:17:57.:18:01.

Adler is in Brussels. Can you tell us what you think will

:18:02.:18:08.

be part of these proposals tabled tomorrow? Well, firstly Huw this is

:18:09.:18:13.

a big night in Brussels tonight. That announcement that a draft new

:18:14.:18:17.

settlement, as it is being called, between the UK and the EU will

:18:18.:18:21.

finally be made public tomorrow and sent on to all other EU member

:18:22.:18:26.

states. Every single one of them has to sign up to it. That's expected at

:18:27.:18:30.

an EU Schmitt in Brussels in a couple of weeks. Expected but not

:18:31.:18:35.

guaranteed. A high level EU source said to me tonight the man releasing

:18:36.:18:41.

the draft document tomorrow, Donald Tusk, wouldn't publish unless he was

:18:42.:18:45.

pretty sure that all big EU players were on board. That said, added my

:18:46.:18:51.

source, they fully expected complaints from Euro-sceptics in the

:18:52.:18:55.

UK, and groans from central and Eastern Europe about the suspension

:18:56.:18:59.

of EU migrant benefits. EU countries now have two weeks to bicker, barter

:19:00.:19:04.

and perhaps bow to EU reform demands. If there is agreement, that

:19:05.:19:07.

will open the door for the Prime Minister to set a date for the UK's

:19:08.:19:11.

referendum on EU membership. Thank you.

:19:12.:19:17.

A strike by junior doctors in England will go ahead next week,

:19:18.:19:20.

following the failure of the latest talks on the terms

:19:21.:19:23.

But the doctors' union, the British Medical Association,

:19:24.:19:27.

says emergency cover will be provided.

:19:28.:19:29.

The industrial action will begin on the morning

:19:30.:19:31.

Our health editor, Hugh Pym, is at a hospital in central London.

:19:32.:19:35.

Your thoughts on what the sticking point now is in these negotiations.

:19:36.:19:43.

Both sides say some progress has been made in recent weeks, but the

:19:44.:19:48.

major sticking point is over pay for doctors on Saturdays. The Government

:19:49.:19:52.

wants to reduce the amount they get paid extra for working for much of a

:19:53.:19:55.

Saturday and bring it in line with what they are paid on week days.

:19:56.:19:59.

Ministers say that will make it easier for hospital management to

:20:00.:20:02.

put more doctors on duty at weekends. The BMA completely rejects

:20:03.:20:09.

that and says junior doctors already work weekends and do unsocial hours

:20:10.:20:14.

and unsocial shifts and it is unfair to remove some of those extra

:20:15.:20:23.

payments. There are talks planned at the conciliation service ACAS. I

:20:24.:20:26.

suspect tonight we are getting nearer the point when Ministers have

:20:27.:20:30.

to make a decision on whether it is the course of action they are going

:20:31.:20:33.

to take. After months of campaigning,

:20:34.:20:39.

voting for the US presidential nominations will begin in a few

:20:40.:20:41.

hours' time in the Midwestern state of Iowa, providing some

:20:42.:20:45.

clues for the race ahead. The polls are still suggesting

:20:46.:20:49.

that the Republican, Donald Trump, and Democrat Hillary

:20:50.:20:51.

Clinton, both have narrow leads For the latest, let's

:20:52.:20:53.

join our North America editor, Jon Sopel, who's

:20:54.:20:59.

in Des Moines tonight. In a few hours' time we should have

:21:00.:21:10.

the result of the Iowa caucus here in this Des Moines nerve centre.

:21:11.:21:15.

It's been a battle dominated by outsiders. Sure Donald Trump has

:21:16.:21:22.

dominated the headlines but equally significant on the Democrat side is

:21:23.:21:27.

the challenge mounted by a veteran left-wing Senator from Vermont. At

:21:28.:21:39.

his final campaign rally they are singing for Bernie Sanders. I'm a

:21:40.:21:45.

warrior for the political revolution in Bernie Sanders. Some have come

:21:46.:21:48.

prepared to fight for Bernie Sanders. Do you think it would take

:21:49.:21:52.

a political revolution to elect him? Yes and I think it is happening. We

:21:53.:21:58.

love Bernie. He gets things done. He works across party lines. He is the

:21:59.:22:05.

best. And inside they are cheering themselves hoarse for this unlike

:22:06.:22:10.

lib insurgent hero. It sounds like you want to make a political

:22:11.:22:12.

revolution! CHEERING. He is 74 years old, admits

:22:13.:22:22.

to being grumpy, but has electrified the Democratic race, with talk of

:22:23.:22:26.

raising the minimum wage, scrapping tuition fees and a NHS for the US.

:22:27.:22:31.

The power phrase Abraham Lincoln, this is a campaign of the people, by

:22:32.:22:38.

the people and for the people. CHEERING. So Bernie Sanders ends his

:22:39.:22:49.

rally to the strains of David Bowie's Starman. Anyone less like

:22:50.:22:53.

Ziggy Stardust it is hard to imagine, but with his mental of

:22:54.:23:00.

massive economic and wealth redistribution he wants a political

:23:01.:23:04.

revolution and for that he's being treated like a rock star here. All

:23:05.:23:10.

of which might be enough to leave Hillary Clinton feeling slightly

:23:11.:23:13.

alarmed. Enjoy the day. How does it feel? Excellent. She lost here 8

:23:14.:23:21.

years ago to Barack Obama, and must fear history repeating itself. The

:23:22.:23:24.

former Secretary of State was the run away favourite to win this race

:23:25.:23:29.

but is now neck and neck with Sanders, so the whole family is

:23:30.:23:35.

being deployed. Coffee and pastry this morning with daughter Chelsea

:23:36.:23:42.

while hub Bill was out here as well. And the other insurgent in the

Republican race, Donald Trump, was joined on stage this afternoon by

his wife. Not that that resulted in any tone down of his rhetoric Had he

:23:51.:23:55.

had this message for his supporters in case there were protesters. If

:23:56.:24:00.

you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out

:24:01.:24:05.

of them, seriously. The politicians have spoken, and boy have some of

:24:06.:24:09.

them spoken a lot. But tonight, finally, it's the voice of the

:24:10.:24:11.

people. Alphabet, the parent company

:24:12.:24:16.

of Google, has overtaken Apple as the most valuable company

:24:17.:24:20.

in the United States. Our economics editor,

:24:21.:24:25.

Kamal Ahmed, is with me. In the last hour Google has brought

:24:26.:24:33.

out its annual results. Google is a very big business and there are some

:24:34.:24:38.

very big numbers attached to those annual results. Its sales for 2015

:24:39.:24:49.

totalled ?52.3 billion. Success in search, success in YouTube, success

:24:50.:24:54.

in its Android mobile telephone system. Customers are flooding

:24:55.:24:58.

towards Google. Clearly it has been caught in all sorts of controversies

:24:59.:25:02.

here over tax payments but that seems like a little local

:25:03.:25:07.

difficulty. Those revenues are up 13.5% over the same period last

:25:08.:25:10.

year. So whatever the difficulty here it is quite a localised

:25:11.:25:15.

problem. And given these figures, do they in your view change the terms

:25:16.:25:18.

of the debate we've had in the UK about tax and Google and the rest of

:25:19.:25:22.

it? I think they will focus minds once again. Google revealed this

:25:23.:25:27.

evening that its sales in the UK were up by 20%. ?1.4 billion extra

:25:28.:25:33.

on what it was doing in 2014. The UK is such a big market Google. It is

:25:34.:25:38.

the only territory outside America because it has to separate out

:25:39.:25:43.

because it is above 10% of its revenues. Google says you don't tax

:25:44.:25:50.

sales but people looking at Google saying your profit margin is 25%,

:25:51.:25:56.

your sales are up by 25%, you are making billion obvious pounds in

:25:57.:26:00.

sales in the UK it will focus that debate more definitely. Thank you.

:26:01.:26:07.

20 years after the death of a young recruit at the Deepcut Army barracks

:26:08.:26:11.

in Surrey, a second inquest has been opened.

:26:12.:26:13.

Private Cheryl James, who was 18, was found with a bullet wound

:26:14.:26:15.

The original inquest recorded an open verdict, but that was

:26:16.:26:21.

quashed when new allegations were made of a culture

:26:22.:26:23.

Our home affairs correspondent, June Kelly, has the story.

:26:24.:26:29.

Private Cheryl James had just turned 18 when she died while on guard duty

:26:30.:26:32.

She was found with a single bullet wound to her head.

:26:33.:26:40.

Deepcut then has been depicted as a place of bullying and fear.

:26:41.:26:43.

Between 1995 and 2002, Cheryl James was one of four young

:26:44.:26:48.

For years their families have been battling to find out the full facts

:26:49.:26:56.

Cheryl's parents are the first to have a new inquest.

:26:57.:27:01.

Among the allegations it will examine is a claim that Cheryl

:27:02.:27:04.

may have been raped the night before she died.

:27:05.:27:07.

You think, I should have been there, if I had been there I could

:27:08.:27:23.

But today the coroner, Judge Brian Barker, said the inquest

:27:24.:27:30.

wasn't a public inquiry and at present he didn't intend

:27:31.:27:32.

to look at an alleged culture of sexual abuse at the barracks.

:27:33.:27:35.

So why has it taken so long to get to this point?

:27:36.:27:38.

Well, in 1995, three weeks after Cheryl died, a brief inquest

:27:39.:27:41.

Her death was investigated by the Royal Military Police.

:27:42.:27:48.

In 2002, Surrey Police began an investigation into all four

:27:49.:27:53.

Deepcut deaths and found no evidence of any crime.

:27:54.:27:57.

In 2006, a review by a senior lawyer concluded that Cheryl's wound

:27:58.:28:01.

Then in 2014 her parents won their fight to have a new

:28:02.:28:07.

inquest after their lawyers finally got access to all the material

:28:08.:28:10.

Cheryl's father was expecting to be the first person

:28:11.:28:16.

But there was a delay because new forensic

:28:17.:28:20.

The family, who've battled for years to see this inquest start,

:28:21.:28:24.

It's football transfer deadline day, but the headlines are being made not

:28:25.:28:40.

Manchester City have announced that Manuel Pellegrini is leaving

:28:41.:28:44.

the club at the end of the season, and they've revealed that he's

:28:45.:28:47.

being replaced by Pep Guardiola, the Spaniard who won a cabinet full

:28:48.:28:50.

of trophies in a four-year period at Barcelona and is currently

:28:51.:28:52.

Our sports editor, Dan Roan, has the story.

:28:53.:28:59.

Never has a football manager been so in control. While most live in fear

:29:00.:29:05.

of their jobs, Pep Guardiola can take his pick. The Spaniard is

:29:06.:29:09.

widely regarded as the best coach in the world and now his talents will

:29:10.:29:14.

be tested in the Premier League. The man he is replacing, Manuel

:29:15.:29:17.

Pellegrini, won the title just two seasons ago, but today he confirmed

:29:18.:29:23.

he would be leaving Manchester City. The news sudden but not unexpected.

:29:24.:29:27.

I talked with the club and I finished my contract in the original

:29:28.:29:32.

date, in June. One month ago, but I don't think it is good all this

:29:33.:29:39.

rumour and speculation. City immediately announced that Guardiola

:29:40.:29:43.

would replace him. The 45-year-old has become a truly outstanding

:29:44.:29:46.

coach. In four years in charge of Barcelona he won no fewer than 14

:29:47.:29:51.

trophies, including three league titles, three Spanish cups and the

:29:52.:29:55.

Champions League twice. He has continued that success with Bayern

:29:56.:30:01.

Munich and his biggest fan told us that City have chosen well. He has

:30:02.:30:07.

had a lot of success. But it hasn't gone to his head. He has always kept

:30:08.:30:13.

his feet on the ground. He will give everything. City are still in

:30:14.:30:16.

contention for four trophies this season but European success has

:30:17.:30:21.

proved elusive and the club's Abu Dhabi owners will expect that to

:30:22.:30:27.

change. The combination of one of football's wealthiest clubs with its

:30:28.:30:31.

most coveted coach is an awesome statement of intent for Manchester

:30:32.:30:34.

City and presents a mainly threat to the opposition. Not least the club's

:30:35.:30:39.

arch-rivals across town. For years Manchester United held the balance

:30:40.:30:43.

of power. But under Louis van Gaal their recent struggles have

:30:44.:30:47.

continued and soon Guardiola could make life even more uncomfortable.

:30:48.:30:51.

This guy knows what he is talking about. He knows the game inside out.

:30:52.:30:58.

He spends a lot of time focusing on details, how you can hurt the

:30:59.:31:03.

opposition. Having conquered Spain and Germany Guardiola is seen as a

:31:04.:31:07.

sporting genius more than a football manager. The relentless demands of

:31:08.:31:11.

the Premier League however could put that status to the ultimate test.

:31:12.:31:16.
