Saving Performing Arts from COVID-19

[On-Site Report] With most events canceled and little to no support from the government, Japan's performing arts industry has been hit extremely hard by the health crisis caused by the novel coronavirus. As the debate over the importance of live theater and music continues, many artists and organizations are now attempting to take their acts online. This episode shows how live entertainment here is adapting as the performing arts world struggles for survival during the COVID-19 pandemic. [World Perspective] Indonesia's healthcare system is struggling under the pressure of COVID-19. The country has recorded the most deaths from the virus in Southeast Asia and the number of infections has now surpassed 20,000. Medical staff are finding it increasingly difficult to get the personal protective equipment, or PPE, they need. A call to make sure workers don't go unprotected has been answered by companies of all sizes. We visit a men's tailor that started making hospital gowns and a textile giant that may turn PPE into one of its mainline businesses.

The Real Housewives of Potomac follows the upscale lives of six intriguing, well-to-do women: Gizelle Bryant, Katie Rost, Karen Huger, Charrisse Jackson-Jordan, Robyn Dixon, and Ashley Darby, all of whom have fought for their places in this society by way of legacy or marriage.
