Should we all be wearing face masks?

BBC World Service - Newshour, Should we all be wearing face masks?

As lockdowns are slowly eased, and people cautiously return to work, should we all be wearing face masks?

In a world of lockdowns and social distancing, some countries are starting to ease weeks of restrictions as their number of confirmed cases of Covid-19 steadily decreases.

Also on the programme: in a health service dominated by women, why is protective equipment designed for men? And why more young people are dying of strokes - linked to coronavirus.
