The COVID papers: What Canada's top doctors say about the country's pandemic response

from This Matters · host Toronto Star

Guest: Megan Ogilvie, heath reporter for the Toronto Star More than three years after the COVID-19 pandemic that took tens of thousands of Canadian lives, a group of the country's top medical experts have published a scathing indictment of Canada's COVID response. In a sweeping set of research papers and editorials published in the British Medical Journal, these experts are calling on the government for a national inquiry into its COVID response — something that's already happening in other countries. They say this process is imperative to learn from what was lost, because it is only a matter of time before we face the next big pandemic. We take a deep dive into "the COVID papers." This episode was produced by Saba Eitizaz and Sean Pattendon.
