Coronavirus: Brazil passes 400,000 deaths

We continue to bring you developments in the coronavirus crisis in India but also turn our attention back to Brazil. The country has now registered more than 400,000 Covid related deaths and the healthcare system continues to struggle. Our correspondent Mark Lowen joins the programme to answer audience questions and to talk about the stories he's been reporting on during his stay in the country.

Our regular coronavirus expert, Dr Megan Murray from Harvard University will help us explain the latest Covid-19 research and discussions.

We'll also get the latest on a crush at a religious festival in Israel on the slopes of Mount Meron, where at least 45 people have been killed.

And in the UK a number of sporting bodies and top clubs have begun a four-day boycott of social media today, to highlight the issue of online racial abuse and to put pressure on social media platforms to do more to prevent abusive posts and punish those behind them. We hear from young people in sport about how they are affected by online abuse and racism.
