Moderna Covid vaccine shows 95% protection

BBC World Service - Business Matters, Moderna Covid vaccine shows 95% protection

But how can any vaccine be fairly distributed?

Early data shows a new vaccine from Moderna could be 95% effective against Covid-19. Michael Kinch is a vaccine specialist and associate vice-chancellor at Washington University in St Louis, and explains the implications of this latest development in the fight against coronavirus.

Also, we're in Europe where a 1.8 trillion euro package is being threatened by two countries who claim the EU is compromising their sovereignty.

And - we are asking if Sri Lanka is too dependent on Chinese money?

Plus - why have Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney decided to buy Wrexham football club? The Welsh club is in English football's fifth tier following their relegation from the Football League in 2008.

We are joined by Jyoti Malhotra in India and Hayley Woodin in Canada
