Coronavirus: Gaza receives its first vaccine shipment

Today the Gaza Strip has received their first 1000 vaccines to protect frontline health workers and the most vulnerable. The vaccines were donated to Gaza by the Palestinian Authority, which controls the other Palestinian territory of the West Bank. But at the moment it's not known how Gaza will vaccinate the rest of it's population. We speak to someone in Gaza who's been looking at the available options.

And continuing to look at Covid vaccine distribution around the world, we speak to two people - a father and his daughter - at the Zaatari refugee camp in Jordan. This week it became the first refugee camp to open a vaccination centre.

Also, every day we are joined by a health expert to help us understand the latest news about coronavirus and to answer your questions. Today our guest is Dr Pedro Hallal - an epidemiologist from the Federal University of Pelotas in the south of Brazil.
