Module 3: Impact of Covid-19 pandemic on healthcare systems in the 4 nations of the UK

Module 3 of the UK Covid-19 public inquiry formally opened on 8th November 2022. It will consider the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on healthcare systems in England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland.

This will include an examination of the consequences for healthcare systems as a result of the government’s response to Covid-19. It will also examine the capacity of healthcare systems to respond to a pandemic and how this evolved during the Covid-19 pandemic. It also will consider the primary, secondary and tertiary healthcare sectors and services, and the experience of healthcare during the pandemic through illustrative accounts. 

Finally, it will examine healthcare-related inequalities (such as death rates, PPE, and oximeters), with further detailed consideration in separate designated modules.

We have secured Core Participant Status for Module 3. A full list of all core participants for Module 3 can be accessed here.
