Coronavirus conversations: Returning to school
We talk to parents preparing to send their children back to school
As lockdowns begin to be lifted in different countries, one consideration that has been particularly political is the reopening of schools. We speak to parents in Kenya, South Africa, Denmark and France to hear their thoughts as they prepare to send their children back to school.
And Hydroxychloroquine has been much discussed, particularly since US President Donald Trump said he was taking it. We look at the latest trial of the drug - which involves more than 40.000 health workers from Europe, Africa, Asia and South America.
Also, the BBC has been speaking to Mark Zuckerberg. Among the things he’s been discussing are the hundreds of thousands of posts making false claims about the coronavirus that Facebook has taken down. We hear some of that interview and discuss the issue of misinformation during this pandemic.
