The pandemic has caused millions of job losses during the past year. The travel industry is one area that has been badly affected as many countries closed their borders or restricted entry. As a result, thousands of pilots are no longer flying and are out of work. Host Nuala McGovern hears from two pilots in Canada and the UK about what it鈥檚 like to lose a job that鈥檚 part of your identity and what the future has in store.

We also return to the emergency situation in India. We hear from medical students and junior doctors about how the pandemic means they have to delay internships, training and graduations to treat Covid patients. They tell us about the emotional strain when they find themselves in a situation of 鈥減laying God鈥� and having to decide whose lives to try and save. Plus, we discuss the anxiety of living thousands of miles away from relatives in India and being concerned for their safety - especially when one of them works in a hospital and treats coronavirus cases.
