First Ankur hears from our reporter Poonam Taneja who has been looking into an official review by Public Health England, which confirms that Covid-19 has disproportionately affected people from Black, Asian and other minority ethnicities. Then Ankur asks, is the government doing enough to protect British Asians from coronavirus?
