Coronavirus: Resilience during a year of the pandemic

We hear from people whose lives have followed an extraordinary path during the pandemic.

It has been a year since the Covid-19 outbreak was declared a pandemic. During the past 12 months, Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ OS has been bringing people together in conversation to share their experience of the coronavirus. Nuala McGovern will host a special edition, as she hears from people whose actions and lives have followed an extraordinary path during the year of the pandemic.

Guests around the world talk about how they have coped with bereavement due to the virus. Two daughters and a father in the US discuss their lives after losing their mother, and wife, to the virus. She died while the father was in a coma after contracting the virus.

Also, doctors and nurses in various countries will share how they have got through a year on the medical frontline. Vaccine researchers will talk to those who have volunteered to administer the Covid jab. And supermarket workers, teachers and bus drivers will also reflect on their year working amid the virus.
