Too Soon for a Path to Recovery?

The World Health Organisation has released guidelines for countries looking to end extended lockdowns and ease restrictions.

For more on this, we speak to Benjamin Cowling, Professor of Infectious Disease Epidemiology at the University of Hong Kong, about current country responses to the virus.
