Join me for this special episode of the Pandemic Podcast where I examine the latest developments within the UK's Covid-19 Public Inquiry which commenced earlier this month.   With the world seemingly moving from one crisis to the next, it's important that the response to Covid-19 does not get swept under the carpet without proper scrutiny.    Join our Covid-19 Panel Event: https://w...

You might think that a global rollout of an experimental mRNA product with very limited prior testing on humans would come with a vigorous tracking and reporting system for monitoring the safety and efficacy of the product. Think again! Despite the availability of some data, getting beneath the surface to find out what is really going on has been near impossible. Fortunately, there are people like...

Rishi Sunak was named the new British Prime Minister this afternoon after Liz Truss resigned last Thursday and former PM Boris Johnson pulled out of the leadership race last night.

Last week the UK had a Black Wednesday déjà vu moment that almost everyone ignored as the UK economy descended into chaos.  Despite a degree in economics and nearly 8 years in Financial Services during my 20's, it's not easy to unpack precisely WHAT is going on, WHY this is all unfolding the way it is and WHO is benefiting from it all. In this episode, I attempt to make sense of the U-turns,...
