South Africa Zuma riots: Death toll mounts

We hear from people in South Africa where protests following the arrest of former president Jacob Zuma continue.

We'll get the latest from South Africa, where protests following the arrest of former president Jacob Zuma continue. At least 30 people have now died in the violence. We hear from our reporter on the ground and also people living there.

And as England prepares for so-called “Freedom Day” on 19 July - when most Covid restrictions will be eased - we speak to doctors who say they are preparing for an increase in hospitalisations.

And our regular health expert, Dr Isaac Bogoch, an infectious diseases physician and scientist from the University of Toronto, joins us to answer listener questions about the coronavirus pandemic.
