The Health Foundation: COVID-19 impact inquiry. Experiences of the COVID-19 pandemic (14 December 2020)

Summary

The COVID-19 pandemic is compromising the nation's health - in the short and long term. It's widening existing inequalities, with some groups hit harder than others.

As part of the Health Foundation COVID-19 impact inquiry, we spoke to to three people from across the UK to hear about their experiences of the pandemic.

Nathaniel, Bethan and Joe share how COVID-19 and measures to control the virus have affected different aspects of their lives including work, access to health care services and mental health. They also reflect on what they think we can learn from the pandemic, to give everybody the same opportunities for health and wellbeing - now and in the future.
