The Guardian’s Today in Focus: The race to contain coronavirus

As more and more cases of the Coronavirus are confirmed internationally and breathing masks are selling out, The Guardian’s Today in Focus podcast takes a closer look at the origin, spread and impacts of outbreak.

The episode gives a good overview of the outbreak and engages in a conversation about the implications of declaring a ‘Public Health Emergency of International Concern’.*

If you’re interested in learning more about the Coronavirus, we recommend that you give the episode a listen on the Today in Focus website here.

*We’ll soon be uploading an animation on the Nature of Global Health Emergencies/Public Health Emergencies of International Concerns on this website, if you want to hear more.
