BBC World Service - BBC OS, Coronavirus: Vaccinating the world's most populous nations

We take a closer look at how India and Brazil are handling the outbreak of Covid-19

We take a closer look at how two of the world's most populous nations, India and Brazil, are handling the outbreak of Covid-19.

As Brazil's Covid-19 crisis continues, a leading health institute says the country is experiencing a historic collapse of its medical services.

Meanwhile in India, cases are on the rise again with some criticism about the export of vaccines while many Indians still wait for one. We take a closer look at both nations hearing from our correspondents and people living in these countries.

And we continue to hear the conversation between four journalists from around the world who have been covering Covid-19, as we mark one year since the WHO declared the global pandemic.
