India Covid crisis: Young medics

We hear from medical students and junior doctors who are treating Covid patients

The coronavirus crisis in India is showing no signs of slowing down. Many junior doctors and medical students have been called on to help treat Covid-19 patients in the current wave. We have a conversation with three young medics about their experiences. We'll also speak to our correspondent about the concerns over the Covid vaccine shortage for Indian citizens.

Our regular coronavirus expert Dr Eleanor Murray from Boston University School of Public Health joins the programme to talk about how travel restrictions around the world can be safely lifted in the coming months. The European Union has proposed to lift restrictions for those who have been vaccinated and for those coming from countries with low infection rates.

Manchester United's Premier League game against Liverpool was postponed on Sunday after around 200 fans broke into Old Trafford to protest against the ownership of the club. We'll hear from fans about what's behind the protests.
