can we buy enough body bags? where are we going to bury the dead? and that was completely wrong. families of covid victims had protested outside, and watched from the public gallery. they remained unconvinced. we are not coming here for an apology. this inquiry is to look at what went wrong, and there will be recommendations to ensure that this doesn't happen again in the future. remember, this part of the inquiry is about the uk's preparedness in the run—up to the pandemic, rather than decisions made during it. so there are still plenty of questions left unanswered. but it's also very likely that matt hancock will be called to give more evidence back at the inquiry later in the process. ellie price, bbc news, outside the covid inquiry in london.
