Summary
For the next few months this series of BMJ podcasts, Talk Evidence, is going to focus on the coronavirus pandemic. There is an enormous amount of uncertainty about the disease, what the symptoms are, fatality rate, treatment options, things we shouldn't be doing.
Talk Evidence is going to try to get away from the headlines and talk about what we need to know, to hopefully give listeners some insight into these issues.
