Brazil: One Virus, Two Worlds

Brazil has been devastated by coronavirus: more than 1.4 million people have been infected and the numbers are rising fast.

Amid the chaos, it is Brazil's poorest who are being hardest hit - in particular the country's millions of domestic workers.

Our World travels through the deserted streets of Brazil's biggest city Sao Paulo to meet them and their employers, and discover how the virus has changed their lives.
