BBC World Service - Weekend, Spain in fear over high coronavirus levels

Spain on edge over coronavirus levels; the race to replace Ginsburg on US Supreme Court

Fears in Spain that the coronavirus is returning to the terrible levels of earlier this year.

Also, following the death of US Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Donald Trump says he'll reveal his choice to replace her this week and he'll name a woman.  But what impact might this have on the presidential race?

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss these and other issues are Stacy Hilliard-Cork, a US-born international development specialist who runs a consultancy firm called Taysha, and Miguel-Anxo Murado, a Spanish journalist and author.
