We are living through unprecedented and uncertain times.
As the coronavirus continues to spread, so does the false information, mixed messaging, panic and fear.
But in ‘Alone Together: A Coronavirus Podcast’ we aim to lift your spirits, and focus on the facts.
Brought to you by hosts Morven McIntyre, Matt Millard and Dan McLaughlin, ‘Alone Together’ is a Laudable production for JPIMedia (publisher of The Scotsman) and Reach.
We’ll hear from the amazing people who are doing their bit to keep our local communities going, sharing their positive and inspiring stories during this time of huge unrest.
We’ll also be answering your questions about the virus, hopefully putting your mind at ease and shedding more light on the science of the pandemic.
Experts and journalists will be answering your pressing questions. What happens in a lockdown? Is the virus worse than the flu? How do I work from home? What happens if I’m self employed?
