Coronavirus conversations: Another Beijing lockdown
A new spike in China's capital, escaping a violent partner and reopening a business
We speak to people in China's capital, Beijing, where a fresh spike of Covid-19 cases has been detected. Fan Fan and Richard tell us what it feels like to go through lockdown all over again.
Meanwhile, the most intense outbreaks are now in Latin America. We hear accounts of how communities in countries including Peru and Colombia are dealing with the disease.
As restrictions ease elsewhere, businesses are preparing to open again in a very different world. We bring together business owners in Botswana, Turkey and the United States to talk about the challenges they face and their hopes for the future.
One consequence of coronavirus lockdowns being discussed around the world is an increase in reported cases of domestic abuse. We hear the experience of one woman in Texas who managed to escape her violent relationship.
