BBC World Service - BBC OS, Coronavirus conversations: Mexican doctors

Government data suggests deaths from Covid-19 are much higher than the official count

We speak to three doctors working on the Covid front line in Mexico after government data suggested deaths from the virus could be more than 60% higher than the official count. They talk about the emotional strain of doing their job and the number of people who are dying at home.

Seven prominent pro-democracy activists in Hong Kong have been found guilty of "unlawful assembly". We'll explain the story with the help of BBC Chinese. And we'll hear the conversation in the city about the impact of changes to rights and freedoms.

And we’ll hear football fans from North Macedonia celebrating their national men’s team’s extraordinary win against 4-time world champions, Germany. It’s the first time the Germans have lost a World Cup qualifying match since 2001.
