Worrying Increase In 'Dead On Arrival' Cases

Reports of dead on arrival cases due to Covid-19 continue to increase despite our number of daily Covid-19 cases declining. To find out more, we first discuss why these cases are on the rise and what needs to be done to address it. Then, we look at the way our daily numbers are reported and whether enough context is given. And finally, we speak about the mental health support needed for the people grieving the loss of their loved ones to Covid-19.
