Covid-19 in Asia

Many countries across South East Asia are seeing rising numbers of Covid-19 infections and fresh outbreaks. We'll speak to our correspondents about the situations in Thailand, Myanmar and Indonesia.

Also, after recent extreme weather events in North America, Europe and Asia, we’ll bring together climate change experts in those regions to discuss how climate change contributes to these events. We’ll discuss preparedness, solutions and also look ahead to the UN climate change conference later this year.

And Dr Emma Hodcroft, molecular epidemiologist at the University of Bern in Switzerland – will answer your questions about coronavirus and the vaccine.
