| Dear reader,
While England eased its lockdown today, it’s only one of many European countries wrestling with the same questions. In Scandinavia, neighbouring states have taken very different approaches, with Sweden’s more relaxed strategy drawing much attention. Yet, as Richard Orange reports, it may be Norway which provides the most interesting answers for how to handle future waves of Covid-19 without shutting down the economy.
If you would like to know more about what you can and can’t do under the new rules, take a look at our latest Q&A.
If one town in England already knows the difficulties of a public health crisis, it is Salisbury. This month the BBC will broadcast The Salisbury Poisonings, about the attempted assassination of Sergei Skripal. Guy Kelly spoke to Tracy Daszkiewicz, the public health official who oversaw the response to the crisis, and Anne-Marie Duff, who plays her in the show, about handling such an extreme event and the parallels with the coronavirus.
Most of you will have had to adjust to new forms of working in recent weeks, but some, perhaps, a little more than others. Lisa Armstrong sat down for a lengthy video chat with Fiona Bruce to discuss taking on Question Time and what it has been like to persevere with the show despite, and very much because of, Covid-19.
Finally, we were very pleased to announce the winners of our Lockdown Awards at the end of last week and you can find out who they were here.
Chris
