Worry over the new virus outbreak in China.  They have been clear for many weeks but now a new outbreak has started in Beijng.  Whole districts have closed down and everyone has to have a virus test.  They had less than 200 cases but there was an immediate reaction.  Last 24 hours, UK had over one thousand cases.  Brazil had over 26 thousand new cases.
Another row in USA.  John Bolton who was the security adviser to the President has written a book.  In the book, he says Trump tried to influence other countries (not just the Ukraine, which he got impeached).  Bolton says he tried to get help from China so that he could be re-elected.  Trump is trying to stop the publication of the book. 
Heatwave in Siberia.  Temperatures in the far north of Russia have been 25 to 30 degrees this month, when they should be about zero.  There have been wild fires and an oil spill and now a plague of tree-eating moths.  Last winter was warm and May was hotter than normal.  They say this is bad news for climate change.
