Coronavirus pandemic: New York vaccine mandate

We’ll reflect some of the conversation in the state of New York about the vaccine mandate which means all health and care home workers must now be vaccinated against Covid, or lose their jobs. We speak to a doctor and a nurse.

We’re following a hearing at the US Senate where a former Facebook employee turned whistleblower is testifying about her experiences at the company. Frances Haugen has alleged that Facebook prioritised “growth over safety”, although Facebook has rejected her claims.

And we’ll continue our coverage of the Pandora Papers data leak, exposing the wealth hidden in tax havens by prominent people around the world. We’ll talk about the latest news lines involving Qatar and Ukraine.
