Panorama: Covid: Who Got It Right?

BBC One - Panorama, Covid: Who Got It Right?

Jane Corbin investigates whether other governments handed Covid-19 better than the UK.

The government says its decisions on Covid-19 have been guided by science. Jane Corbin investigates the policies pursued by governments elsewhere, using data to discover whether anyone got it right.  

Journalist Jane Corbin has reported on epidemics, medical emergencies and global conflicts since the 1980s. When Britain went into its first national lockdown in March, she was filming on the NHS Frontline in Leicester and Coventry. It was an unprecedented point in history - there was no playbook and no firm evidence base to guide decision-making. With every government on the planet faced with the same challenge at the same time, it could have been an unprecedented opportunity for global learning and cooperation. Instead, different countries took very different views of the virus, followed different strategies and have, as a result, seen different outcomes. In this Panorama, Jane wants to know ‘Who Got It Right?
