As COVID-19 spread around the world, so did questions about whether the World Health Organization could have done more to contain it, as well as accusations from U.S. President Donald Trump that the organization was under undue influence from China. Guest host Rosemary Barton puts those questions to Peter A. Singer, special adviser to the director general of the WHO.Then, Italy eased lockdown almost three weeks ago, and a declining death toll suggests social distancing, mask wearing and hand washing is working. Rome correspondent Megan Williams brings to the streets of the Eternal City for an update on the end of lockdown measures.Plus, Jeni Armstrong created the website The Kids Write because she wanted to give children a place to describe their experiences during COVID.

We hear how some people are having that conversation.
