The Price of COVID | 2PM
After two years of arguing about how to ‘balance’ public health and the economy, it’s time to talk about what we have learned. Benjamin Law, Richard Holden and Sam Mostyn explore how the last two years have challenged our health systems, and shown us what went missing as we globalised our economy.

Ann Mossop, Peter Hartcher, Stan Grant, and Emma Johnston will dissect this debate around our national identity, climate in(action) and what we can all do to save Australia.
