Criticism of global health authority over coronavirus

Available for over a year

The World Health Organisation faces charges it failed to halt the coronavirus pandemic, but says it welcomes an inquiry; we look at whether it can be to blame, or if it is being made a scapegoat. We report on the man from 'Mouse House', hired to put a western face on China's social media giant, TikTok. And a scourge of unemployment follows relentlessly in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. We'll examine the human cost in the US and India. And we look at how the dramatic fall in carbon emissions from the global lockdowns might - with political will - be made permanent. We discuss all this with live guests Melissa Chan, a Los Angeles based journalist and Sarah Birke in Tokyo.
