All New Yorkers will need to be vaccinated against Covid-19 if they want to go to work, the city's mayor, Bill de Blasio, has announced. Employees in the public sector already need to be inocculated, but the mandate will now be extended to all private sector employees, making it the strictest vaccine mandate anywhere in the US. The BBC's North America Business Correspondent, Samira Hussain, tells us what the new rules mean. And Russian president Vladimir Putin has held high level talks with India's PM Narendra Modi, will this trouble the US? And American diplomats are to boycott the Winter Olympics in China over human rights abuses, so will companies and sponsors follow suit? Also in the programme, we hear from Screen Daily's Senior Correspondent, Melanie Goodfellow, as she attends Saudi Arabia's first film festival in Jeddah. Throughout the programme we’re joined by Alison Schrager, Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute in New York and Jeanette Rodrigues, South Asia Managing Editor for Bloomberg News based in Mumbai.
