BBC Radio Scotland - Sunday Morning, With Cathy Macdonald

Hearing what it’s like to live with a condition which puts you in an at risk category.

Writer Anna Magnusson and theologian Pádraig Ó Tuama share what it’s like to live with a condition which classifies them as being in an at risk category for the coronavirus.

Writer and broadcaster, Anna Magnusson, and theologian and poet Pádraig Ó Tuama, both have asthma.  They share what it’s like to live with a condition which classifies them as being in an at risk category for the coronavirus (Covid-19).  

With Cathy, Anna and Pádraig also look at our changing perceptions of what we mean by society and solidarity and the impact of isolation along with trauma doctor, Beth Healey, who has experience of living in isolation having spent two winters in the European Space Agency’s Antarctic research base.  

Also joining Cathy is Luke Devlin, a member of the Catholic Worker Movement, who reflects on the importance of a daily routine of prayer and contemplation and an audio diary from Dr Yahya Barry, founder and director of The Olive Tree Madrasah, an Islamic education institute based in Edinburgh, on how his prayer routine integrates into family life.
