Universities around the world are struggling with coronavirus outbreaks on campus. Students are being told to stay in their accommodation and self-isolate. We get the views of two students - one in the UK and one in Switzerland - about how they are coping in quarantine.

Our medical expert, to explain the day鈥檚 coronavirus developments, is Dr Maria Sundaram from Toronto. We discuss the latest on the search for a vaccine, and a research suggesting that people who have a certain gene inherited from Neanderthals are more at risk from Covid-19.

There is anger in India over the alleged rape and death of two Dalit women in the state of Uttar Pradesh. We learn more about the discrimination faced by the Dalit community, considered to be at the bottom of India's caste system. And we hear personal perspectives by Indian women about safety and what they think should be done to stop the violence against women.
