Coronavirus conversations: The mask mandate
We hear from vaccinated people still choosing to wear a mask
In the US over half of the adult population has now had a Covid vaccine. In turn more than 20 states have lifted their mask mandates. We hear a conversation with two fully vaccinated people who still want, and choose to wear their masks.
Also athletes from across the world of sport have offered their support to Naomi Osaka, who pulled out of the French Open due to mental health concerns - but some have also questioned her decision. We ask athletes, sports journalists and a sports psychologist about the pressures athletes face in sport, and what Osaka’s withdrawal means for tennis.
And we’ll go live to Tulsa in Oklahoma – where President Biden is arriving to mark the 100th anniversary of the Tulsa Race Massacre.
