England is expected to end Covid restrictions

Amid falling case rates, England is expected to remove all Covid restrictions.

Amid falling case rates, England is expected to remove all Covid restrictions. We get reaction to the move from Professor Devi Sridhar, who is the University of Edinburgh's Chair in Global Public Health. Also in the programme, authorities in Tanzania are taking steps to regulate informal street traders, by creating permanent markets and requiring hawkers to move into them. We find out more from journalist Priya Sippy, who is in the country's commercial capital, Dar es Salaam. Plus, the mayor of Sacramento, California, wants to pass a law which gives everyone the legal right to housing. The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Sarah Hawkins reports on how such an idea might work in practice.

Today's edition is presented by Rob Young, and produced by Nisha Patel and Ivana Davidovic.
