UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson faces questions in the Commons shortly.

Mr Johnson will answer Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer as well as a selection of cross-party MPs in the weekly PMQs session.

He's likely to be asked about job losses, since it's been revealed HSBC will resume a plan to cut around 35,000 jobs.

The PM may also be asked about Marcus Rashford, the Manchester United footballer who this week led a successful campaign to keep the funding for free school meals for poorer pupils in England going throughout the summer.

Rashford says he wants to do more to help those in need after the government's U-turn on the matter.

Kenyan investigators have told the BBC they are examining all donations and money given to the country to help fight coronavirus.

They believe that millions of dollars and equipment have been stolen even as the country continues to register a sharp rise in Covid-19 cases.

Local media have exposed the disappearance of $2m (£1.6m) worth of personal protective equipment donated by the Chinese government.

Kenya has received donations from Chinese billionaire Jack Ma, the International Monetary Fund and European countries but the government has faced questions about how it has used the funds, with health workers complaining of lack of protective gear.

So far 3,727 have been infected with Coronavirus with 104 fatalities.

The government says community infections are on the rise with the peak of the deadly disease expected in September.

London Mayor Sadiq Khan has revealed he has taken an immediate 10% pay cut to his £152,734 ($193,000) salary and frozen pay for senior City Hall appointments as he calls on the UK government to help councils facing funding shortfalls during the pandemic.

Like in many cities, he said, the capital's public finances faced "unprecedented challenges" which, unless ministers acted, could mean cuts across the Metropolitan Police, London Fire Brigade, Transport for London (TfL) and the Greater London Authority due to a shortfall of almost £500 million in funding.

He said TfL - which last month secured a £1.6bn bailout to keep Tube and bus services running - had seen a 90% drop in fares due to lockdown restrictions and income from business rates and council tax had "fallen off a cliff".

Khan called on the government to act on the promise by Prime Minister Boris Johnson - a former London mayor himself - that he would not "force another era of austerity on local and regional government" to balance the books after the pandemic.

Some of England's biggest councils could see "large-scale reductions" to services as they attempt to balance the books after the crisis, with 39 authorities facing a funding shortfall of £2.5bn according to a new report by the County Councils Network.

It's a good day for football fans - England's top flight Premier League is back.

After a 100-day absence, Aston Villa v Sheffield United will kick off in the evening, the first of 92 league games that will be packed into a frantic 40 days before the season concludes on 26 July.

But what's changed?

Well, all matches are behind closed doors for starters with just 300 staff, players, coaches and journalists allowed inside the stadium.

Teams are now able to make five substitutions, rather than three, in each match and able to name nine substitutes instead of the usual seven.

And there won't be handshakes between players and post-match interviews will be pitchside rather than in the tunnel.

Doctors in Nigeria's public hospitals are on strike, complaining about a lack of protective equipment as well as pay.

More health workers have tested positive for coronavirus in Nigeria than in any other African country except South Africa. But they still represent only a small fraction of the overall number of Covid-19 cases in Nigeria.

Many countries in Africa have been struggling with a lack of resources for their healthcare systems.

We've been looking at the situation facing doctors in Nigeria and elsewhere in Africa.

A record fall in fuel prices, including petrol, pushed the UK's inflation rate down to 0.5% in May, the second full month of the coronavirus lockdown.

Fuel prices declined by 16.7% during the month, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said, dragging the Consumer Prices Index (CPI) to the lowest level since June 2016.

Clothing and footwear prices also fell.

Supermarkets were among the few shops allowed to open in May and food prices rose, the ONS said.

Israeli researchers say they have created a reusable face mask which cleans itself with heat.

The mask has a USB port which connects to a power source and heats its inner layer of carbon fibres by up to 70C - a temperature high enough to destroy coronavirus.

Users are advised not to wear the mask during the disinfection process, which takes roughly 30 minutes, Yair Ein-Eli told Reuters news agency.

Ein-Eli led the research at Israel's Technion University, spurred by widening disparities between global supply and demand for masks.

The researchers have filed a patent for the mask in the US, and plan to sell it commercially.

As we reported earlier, a highly personal campaign by the footballer Marcus Rashford prompted a UK government U-turn that will see parents claim food vouchers for about 1.3 million children in England during the summer holidays.

Policy U-turns matter, says BBC Political Editor Laura Kuenssberg, as doing the right thing because of a change of heart or new information is better than pursuing a policy that will cause harm. But too many U-turns, and it could chip away at a government's credibility, she warns.

The involvement of a young, well-liked, articulate and high-profile figure like Rashford made ministers' earlier defence of not extending the scheme less sustainable by the hour, she says.

Rashford's campaign win is just the beginning for the 22-year-old, who told BBC Breakfast he wanted to do more to help those who "are struggling all year around".

He says it is "becoming more normal" for his generation of footballers to campaign on social issues. Several footballers, most notably Manchester City's Raheem Sterling, have spoken out about racism following the death of George Floyd and the Black Lives Matters protests.

Greece has seen relatively few cases of coronavirus. According to Johns Hopkins University data, it has recorded 3,148 confirmed infections and 185 deaths, and the government has already allowed businesses to reopen and travel to restart across the country.

As of Monday, authorities have also allowed brothels to reopen - albeit under strict new guidelines.

Visits are limited to 15 minutes per customer, with masks recommended for workers and clients.

Doors and windows should be kept open to allow fresh air in, payment should only be by card and not by cash, and businesses should keep a list of clients - along with their names and phone numbers - in a sealed envelope for four weeks, in case authorities need to trace infections.

Other countries are considering allowing sex work again. The Dutch government plans to reopen brothels on 1 September, although there are calls for this to happen sooner.

Sex workers worldwide fear for their income amid the outbreak, and some have been forced to work throughout the pandemic to make ends meet. You can read more here

Seven US airlines have announced plans to strictly enforce passengers' use of masks on flights.

In a statement, external, industry body Airlines for America (A4A) - which represents the group - said those who refused to wear masks on board could have their flying privileges revoked.

Companies pledging action are Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Hawaiian Airlines, JetBlue Airways, Southwest Airlines and United Airlines. A4A said each carrier would determine appropriate consequences for individual cases.

Their decision is part of a larger drive by US airlines to improve safety following complaints that their mandatory mask requirements were not being enforced.

There are currently no US government requirements to wear masks on flights. Transport Secretary Elaine Chao has said the issue is best determined by airlines and unionised frontline workers. Susannah Carr - an industry union official and flight attendant with United Airlines - told a US congressional committee last week that mask use was "definitely an issue we need to address".

We reported earlier that visitors to Russian President Vladimir Putin are being made to pass through a disinfectant tunnel.

There is very little evidence to suggest that the use of tunnels is safe or effective, and most major international organisations do not recommend their use. Most experts think that that the length of time of exposure to disinfectants and the level of dose that would be required to have an impact on the virus would pose a significant risk to human health.

The extent of the risk depends on which disinfectant is used, how strong it is and how long a person is exposed to it, but there is a danger of respiratory irritation. This could be a particular problem with coronavirus, as it is known to take advantage of weakened lungs.

There is also no evidence that disinfection tunnels address the source of the virus, so if a person is infected the process will do nothing to reduce the amount of virus that they are harbouring in their mouth, nose and respiratory tract.

It is not thought that clothes and shoes play a significant role in transmitting the virus, and the World Health Organization recommends thorough hand washing as a more direct and effective way to reduce the chances of person-to-person spread. There is also a risk that such tunnels may create a false sense of security, and encourage people who have used them to behave in ways likely to spread the virus.

In the UK, Health Secretary Matt Hancock has been asked about whether Prime Minister Boris Johnson was across the issue of free school meals, after the PM told the Downing Street briefing he had only become aware of Marcus Rashford's campaign on the issue yesterday.

The 22-year-old England and Manchester United footballer led a successful and highly personal campaign - including writing an open letter to MPs about his own experiences - which prompted the government to extend the free school meal voucher scheme for vulnerable children in England over the summer.

Hancock said Johnson had taken a "fresh look" and made the judgement to change policy after watching a BBC Breakfast interview with the footballer. The prime minister, he added, had already known about the issue.

While praising Rashford, Hancock wrongly referred to the footballer as "Daniel", an error he linked to the early start and his seven-year-old's love of Harry Potter, who was played by Daniel Radcliffe in the film series. Rashford appeared to joke about the incident, responding on Twitter with a laughing face emoji.

Appearing on BBC Radio 4's Today programme, Hancock was also challenged on his previous call for Premier League footballers to contribute to the Covid-19 response amid concerns over the furlough scheme, and was asked whether he owed Rashford and others an apology.

The health secretary said Rashford had been "absolutely brilliant" and he owed him "thanks".

The state government responsible for Nigeria's most crowded city, Lagos, has suspended indefinitely the planned reopening of mosques and churches this weekend as coronavirus cases rise.

Nigeria now has more than 16,600 cases, almost half of them in Lagos State.

The lockdown in the capital Abuja, Lagos State and Ogun State had been in effect since March but two weeks ago the authorities announced plans to reopen religious buildings and hotels.

Testing has increased to almost 100,000 samples in a population of about 195 million people.

The easing of restrictions is due to go ahead as planned in the rest of the country.

Flushing the toilet with the lid up creates a cloud of spray that can be breathed in and may spread infections such as coronavirus, say researchers.

Chinese scientists calculate that flushing can propel a plume of spray up and out of the toilet bowl, reaching head height and beyond.

Droplets can travel up to 3ft - or 91cm - from ground level, according to the computer model used by the scientists from Yangzhou University.

Shutting the lid would avoid this.

Coronavirus is spread through airborne droplets from coughs and sneezes, or objects that are contaminated with them.

People who are infected can also have traces of the virus in their faeces, although it is not yet clear whether this might be another way to pass the disease on to others.

Authorities in Arizona, Florida and Texas have reported their largest daily increases in coronavirus infections.

On Tuesday Florida reported 2,783 new cases, Texas 2,622 and Arizona 2,392.

Testing has been increased in all three southern US states, and lockdown restrictions have been eased to help boost their economies.

At a press conference, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis brushed aside claims that the spike in cases was being caused by businesses reopening, and said the state would not be closing parts of its economy again.

“We’re not shutting down,” he said. “You have to have society function.”

US Vice-President Mike Pence has published an opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal saying that concern about the virus is "overblown".

President Donald Trump is expected to hold a public rally in Oklahoma this weekend, despite infections continuing to rise in the state.

Self-isolation, job loss and fear of Covid-19 are just some factors affecting our mental health.

Brazil has set a new record of daily cases – 34,918 patients were registered as having coronavirus in the past 24 hours. There are now more than 920,000 cases in the country, second only to the US. And nearly 1,300 deaths were registered, taking the death toll to 45,241.

The infection rate is showing no signs of slowing – at this rate, Brazil is likely to register a million cases by the end of the week. The country is the new epicentre of the coronavirus pandemic – a crisis that is worsening by the day.

With so little testing in Brazil, it’s thought that the true number of infections is far higher than official figures suggest.

But under pressure from the country’s President, Jair Bolsonaro, who has criticised quarantine measures as economically damaging, major cities are starting to re-open – all before the country is believed to have even reached the peak.

In the UK, the husband of a heavily pregnant hospital nurse who died with Covid-19 has told of his agony at her death and argues she shouldn't have been working at the start of the coronavirus pandemic.

Mary Agyapong, 28, was a nurse at the Luton and Dunstable Hospital in Bedfordshire and was diagnosed with coronavirus in early April, dying a week later. Doctors were able to save her baby - a daughter called Mary - by an emergency C-section.

In an exclusive interview with the BBC's Sima Kotecha, her husband Ernest Boateng said that after her death he had received a call from a trade union representative who had said he'd met Mary on the ward and had told her to stop working as it wasn't safe. But Mary had felt "helpless", her husband said.

In a moving tribute to his "perfect" wife, he said there was "no amount of words" to describe how he was feeling. There were times, he said, when he smiled "at the precious moments we had together" and others, when he was "walking and just crying".

The Bedfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust says it carried out a "full internal review into the circumstances surrounding her death and we are confident that she received the best possible care and support from the Trust", adding it is "currently working through a number of issues Mr Boateng has raised".

In England, more than two million people deemed at greatest risk of severe illness from coronavirus could soon be told that they no longer need to isolate themselves at home.

The Health Service Journal (HSJ) is reporting that the shielding programme for those deemed to be extremely clinically vulnerable which began in March will stop at the end of July, external; however there is yet to be a formal government announcement.

Steven McIntosh, policy director at Macmillan Cancer Support, which has been involved in discussions with the government, said the charity was expecting an announcement this week.

He told BBC Radio 4's Today programme the government would need to be "clear" in its communication with those who were vulnerable by setting out "what the rationale" was, why it would be safe for any relaxation of the shielding guidance and what would happen if the infection rate rose again.

He said people had told nurses on the charity's support line of the "increasing pressure" from their employers to return to work "even though it [was] not yet safe to do so". He stressed the guidance on shielding remained in place and the charity was seeking a government guarantee that support for shielding people - such as food and medicine deliveries - would not end until it was safe.

New Zealand military will now run the country’s border and quarantine operations after two people who were allowed out early later tested positive for coronavirus.

Assistant chief of defence Darryn Webb will be able to use military resources and personnel, if needed, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said.

Ms Ardern said that border controls must be rigorous and disciplined, and needed to have the confidence of ministers as well as all New Zealanders. She added that the two new Covid-19 cases represented "an unacceptable failure of the system".

The two women who came from the UK via Australia had not been tested on the third day of their arrival or before they left quarantine as per the government’s rules. They were granted a compassionate exemption to leave managed isolation in Auckland to visit their dying parent in Wellington.

Health Minister David Clark has temporarily suspended all exemptions after the incident.
