YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe COVID inquiry has started, with the first part looking into how resilient and prepared the country was for a pandemic.
Former Conservative prime minister David Cameron, ex-chancellor George Osborne, health secretary during COVID, Matt Hancock, and the UK government's chief medical adviser, Chris Whitty, have given evidence so far.
On this Sky News Daily, host Niall Paterson is joined by our health correspondent Ashish Joshi to summarise what's been said so far.
