Shanghai tightens lockdown restrictions
Shanghai residents infected with coronavirus will get door alarms to prevent them leaving.
Shanghai residents infected with coronavirus will get door alarms to prevent them leaving. We get a sense of how that and other new restrictions are impacting daily life from one resident of the city. Also in the programme, market traders in Ghana are calling for authorities to implement policies to hold prices stable as inflation bites. We find out more from Dr Agyapomaa Gyeke-Dako, from the University of Ghana Business School in Accra. A year after we first spoke with them, the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Victoria Craig revisits a number of companies that had adapted their business models to deal with the coronavirus pandemic, to find out whether the changes turned out to be permanent. Plus, ahead of World Record Store Day this weekend, which celebrates everything to do with independent music shops, we hear how the market for vinyl records is evolving, from Rupert Morrison, owner of Drift Records in Devon, in southwest England.
Today's edition is presented by Sasha Twining, and produced by Benjie Guy, Ivana Davidovic and Gabriele Shaw.
