Available for over a year

WTO head Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala calls for a rethink by companies over coronavirus vaccines. She urges pharmaceutical firms involved to make enough for everyone in the world, or voluntarily hand their technology to developing countries, citing AstraZeneca's deal with India's Serum Institute. We hear from Dr Okonjo-Iweala, and examine the issues raised with BBC economics correspondent Andrew Walker. Also in the programme, baseball returns to New York's Yankee Stadium today, and on Friday the curtain will rise once again at some theatres on Broadway, as the BBC's Samira Hussain in the city explains. Plus, on the 30th anniversary of the first edition of World Business Report, Fergus Nicoll looks back on three decades of coverage of the global economy. (Picture: A coronavirus vaccination in India.
