    This six part podcast series contains the unheard tapes from the Virgin Media News Documentary Team. These episodes come from hours of footage taken during the making of a documentary by reporter Zara King who looked at COVID-19 in Ireland, hearing the thoughts of the key decision makers who sat in Room 6.31 at the Department of Health, and the voices of the people whose lives were changed by those decisions, as a global crisis unfolded in their own homes.

    In this final episode in the series we sit down with the Taylor and O’Neill families to hear about Billy and Susan, both of whom died from Covid earlier this year.

Ireland’s only medical Virologist, Dr Cillian DeGascun explains where it’s all going, as we ask if Ireland, as a nation, can ever fully recover from this once in a lifetime crisis?
