The US President, Donald Trump, battles with Covid-19 in a military medical facility.

President Donald Trump has been airlifted to a military hospital to undergo testing after his Coronavirus diagnosis. Many other senior Republicans who attended a recent White House event have also tested positive for the virus. We get the latest from our correspondent. 
Also on the programme, as countries around the world grapple with renewed increases in Covid-19 cases, we'll hear how best to persuade people to comply with Covid restrictions. And a new book is out about the Assassination of the Pakistani Prime Minister, Benazir Bhutto, we speak to the author.
