BBC World Service - BBC OS, OS conversations: Coronavirus in Iran

We hear about the coronavirus situation in Iran

We continue to hear conversations from Iran ahead of next week’s presidential elections. Today Rana Rahimpour from BBC Persian Service talks to a doctor and a pharmacist about their experiences of the pandemic.

President Joe Biden, who has started his first official overseas trip in the UK, will meet Prime Minister Boris Johnson today to discuss US-UK relations after Trump years as well as challenges with climate change and security. We’ll hear from our reporters covering the meeting.

Our regular coronavirus expert Dr Emma Hodcroft in Switzerland will answer more audience questions about the virus.

The American reality TV show, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, airs its final episode today. We'll discuss the impact of the show.
