On this edition for Saturday, May 8, India’s COVID-19 surge continues as it hits southern states, local elections in Scotland and Wales could mean first steps towards independence from Britain, and in our signature segment, Serbia has been highly successful in its vaccination efforts, lowering COVID-19 rates, but raising questions about ‘vaccine diplomacy.’ Hari Sreenivasan anchors from New York.
