Coronavirus conversations: Covid-19 'long-haulers'

We hear from people in Canada, South Africa and New Zealand who have had Covid-19 but are still suffering from debilitating symptoms, months later

We hear a conversation between people who are yet to fully recover after having Covid-19. Months later they are still suffering debilitating symptoms due to the virus. They are known as Covid 'long-haulers'.

India now has the fourth-highest number of deaths as a result of Covid-19, according to official data. The country has recorded more than 47,000 fatalities. We hear from a doctor working with patients in Mumbai on the challenges he faces in trying to contain the virus.

And protests are continuing for a fifth day in Belarus against the disputed re-election of President Alexander Lukashenko. We hear the latest amid the violent crackdown by the security forces.
