Newsday

Available for over a year

Documents provided by a whistle-blower suggest there have been three times as many deaths as previously announced by the government. We go to Australia, where an early success against Covid-19 is now a distant memory. A number of areas of the country are back into lockdown. And Mexico's most wanted man - nicknamed "el Marro" (the Sledgehammer) - has been captured by security forces shortly after releasing a bizarre, tearful video.
