BBC World Service - BBC OS, Coronavirus: More cases in Beijing

We speak to people in Beijing about the renewed coronavirus restrictions

We look at the fresh spikes of coronavirus cases, particularly in Beijing and parts of India; we reach out to people in those places and also explain statistics in the context of infection rates around the world. 

The English Premier League returns today after being on hold for 100 days, due to the coronavirus pandemic. There will be no fans in the stadiums. We get football fans in countries where the games have already resumed to talk with their contemporaries in England about the new supporter experience. 

We also explain the border clashes between India and China, using the expertise of BBC colleagues from BBC Chinese Service and from our Delhi bureau.
