The measures include increased testing and vaccinations as part of a national strategy, as President Biden warns the US is likely to reach half a million coronavirus-related deaths by next month. We speak to Julie Rovner from Kaiser Health News in Washington DC. The Japanese carmaker Nissan says it plans to increase production of electric car batteries at its plant in Sunderland in the north of England. We hear from Nissan's chief operating officer Ashwani Gupta. And one year on from the start of the world's very first lockdown, our China correspondent John Sudworth reports from Wuhan, where the first cases of coronavirus were detected. Rob Young is joined throughout the programme by Paddy Hirsch, editor of The Indicator podcast from Planet Money, in Los Angeles and by Stefanie Yuen Thio, managing partner at TSMP Law in Singapore.
