麻豆约拍

It is six months since the outbreak of a new coronavirus was declared a global pandemic. Very few lives around the world have not been affected by Covid-19. More than 27 million people have been infected. More than 900,000 have died with the virus and the numbers increase daily. Behind every case, there is a story.

Since March, 麻豆约拍 OS has been hearing those stories. The programme has been bringing people together from around the world with a shared experience of living through the pandemic. It has also been collecting audio messages from friends and relatives of loved ones lost to the virus. Those messages span different continents and different languages. Each articulates the memory left by each individual; the thing that made them special. And in many cases, they highlight the shared shock and speed of their passing and the feeling of helplessness.

Presenter Nuala McGovern guides you through those messages and remembers the names and the stories of those we have lost, through the words of those who love them.
