Coronavirus: Back to normal in Wuhan?

BBC World Service - BBC OS, Coronavirus: Back to normal in Wuhan?

Two people talk about their newly restored freedoms

Covid-19 was first detected in the Chinese city of Wuhan but officials have now declared the city virus free. Pictures of people in bars and restaurants suggest life has gone back to the way it was before. It's a huge contrast to much of the rest of the world, which is still dealing with high infection rates and associated restrictions. We hear from two people who live in Wuhan about their newly restored freedoms.

Also, a long running conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan over the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region has erupted again.  Our BBC regional experts discuss the background to this disputed region and what is likely to happen next.

And in India the number of people infected with the coronavirus has risen to more than six million. We hear from a doctor who treats Covid-19 patients in the country.
