World Questions tackles the global issue of Covid-19: not just the disease itself but the information surrounding the pandemic. What should we have known and what questions should have been asked? Sharing information - and understanding the basis of the decisions of the scientists and the politicians - has never been more important or more difficult. So, do we always get the best information? How do we interpret the science and the policies that goes with it? And how does the world鈥檚 media respond to a pandemic? How have any of us - politicians, health experts and journalists - communicated with the public?

As we try and get to grips with the best way to share information about what is really happening, what鈥檚 the best way to deal with 鈥渇ake news鈥� 鈥� is it a major force or a distraction from the crisis? And what鈥檚 the best counter to it? Attack it, understand it, or ignore it? In our digital world, can it ever be eradicated or regulated?
