World Business Report - Podcast tekijän mukaan BBC World Service

Indonesia has launched its coronavirus vaccine rollout, starting with working-age people. The BBC's Rebecca Henschke in Jakarta explains why they have chosen to bypass elderly and other more vulnerable sections of the population, who are at the front of the queue for vaccination in most countries. And UK-based science journalist Anjana Ahuja considers the different strategies countries can take, depending on their priorities. Also in the programme, the International Labour organisation has warned of risks involved with home working during the pandemic, with many workers facing little help or protection at home. Janine Berg of the ILO brings us the details. Plus, coronavirus has had a huge impact on the cinema industry globally. BBC arts correspondent Vincent Dowd considers its future.
