Episode description

Boeing and Airbus Americas are asking the White House to delay 5G rollout in the States in an on-going row over whether or not the tech can crash planes. The companies says “interference could adversely affect the ability of aircraft to safely operate”. The wireless industry group CTIA says 5G is safe and is accusing the aviation industry of fearmongering and distorting facts. WHO Boss Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus says 2022 must be the year the pandemic ends. He also warned governments across the globe that they “should invest in preventing a future disaster on this scale".
