Summary
With the UK Covid-19 Inquiry due to publish its report into the impact of the pandemic on healthcare systems this week, CATA (the Covid Airborne Transmission Alliance) has submitted its own reports to the Inquiry. These cover investigations that CATA carried out independently, based on Freedom of Information requests and other sources of information (see CATA's press release that explains the background to this initiative).
David Osborn, a member of CATA's Executive Team, gave a brief overview of these reports in a presentation to the SHBN (the Safer Healthcare Biosafety Network).
