Coronavirus conversations: Brazil’s doctors under pressure

Brazil has the world's second-highest number of Covid-related deaths - only behind the US. Last week, the country's leading health institute Fiocruz warned of a historic collapse of Brazil's health service. We hear a conversation between doctors in the country to hear how they are coping.

And much of Europe continues to struggle to contain the growing numbers of Covid-19 cases. Germany has extended its coronavirus lockdown for three more weeks, while the French president Emmanuel Macron has warned of an impending "explosion" in Covid-19 hospital admissions. We hear the latest from across the continent
