Former Health Secretary Matt Hancock gives evidence to Covid Inquiry

Matt Hancock has told the Covid Inquiry that although the pandemic put intense pressure on the NHS, it didn’t collapse.

It’s the third time the former Health Secretary has appeared at the hearing, which was scrutinising his role in key decision making and the impact on the health service.

Family members who lost loved ones to Covid-19 protested outside, demanding greater participation in the process.
