Will a coronavirus vaccine reach the developing world?

The charity Oxfam warns that developing countries may miss out on any coronavirus vaccine.

The charity Oxfam warns that developing countries may miss out on any coronavirus vaccine. We get the perspective of Winnie Byanyima, executive director of the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS, and we get reaction from Thomas Cueni, director general of the International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers and Associations. Also in the programme, continuing our series looking at key issues at stake in the US election, we explore why despite huge job losses because of the pandemic, the economy doesn't seem to be a top priority for American voters. Plus, as a show for fashion brand Burberry kicks off London Fashion Week, we find out how the event has been adapted for the coronavirus era, from Gabriele Dirvanauskas of the fashion business website Drapers.
