The Scottish People's Covid-19 Inquiry, Saturday 22nd February, Edinurgh
From March 2020 to December 2022 the Scottish public experienced profound changes to the provision and delivery of both Health and Social Care, which included restrictions on their freedom of movement and assembly. These measures constituted a strategic government response to a respiratory illness named COVID-19. The Scottish COVID-19 Inquiry is a statutory public inquiry whose remit is to establish the facts of, and learn lessons from this strategic response and ultimately provide reports to Scottish Ministers. In the course of the first part of this enquiry, centred on Health and Social Care, a wealth of evidence has been gathered from the Scottish public about the effects of the government’s COVID-19 response on the lives of real people. Our conference will provide a platform for sharing, and placing in context, these lived experiences so that the Scottish public can reflect on the lessons that they reveal.
Speakers include:
Dr Claire Craig, Professor Richard Ennos, Professor Diane Rasmussen, Dr Alan Mordue, Dr Liz Evans, Professor Martin Neil and more, plus individual personal testimonies from members of the public and the audience.
