Africa Covid-19: why are levels relatively low?

Newsday

Available for over a year

We speak to the Director of Africa Centres for Diseases Control and Prevention, John Nkengasong, about the latest coronavirus situation across the continent. We get an update on the hundreds of whales that are stranded off Tasmania in what's become the biggest beaching in Australia's recent history. And we have a report from the island of Lesbos in Greece to hear how the more than ten thousand refugees and migrants are managing two weeks on from the fire that destroyed the Moria camp.
