Listen "Is the Covid-19 pandemic over?"
Episode Synopsis
On May 16, the European Union will no longer require people to wear masks on planes.
Many countries around the world have already started to relax Covid-19 restrictions.

So is it finally time to get back to normal? At least to the way life was before the pandemic. Or is it time to simply embrace the ‘new normal'?
This week on Beyond the Headlines, host Suhail Akram asks experts and health care professionals if the pandemic is truly over.
