Inside Health – Could the Kent meningitis outbreak happen again?
Available for over a year
Just over a week after the first cases of meningitis in Canterbury, many crucial questions remain. So this week, we take an in-depth look at these questions and what we’ve learned from this outbreak – and could it happen again? James also hears from author Michael Rosen, whose son Eddie died of meningitis aged 18, about how quickly the illness struck and how he deals with his grief. And would you trust health advice from an AI chatbot? We hear from someone who regularly turns to ChatGPT and GP Dr Margaret McCartney about their concerns. Presenter: James Gallagher Producer: Gerry Holt Content Editor: Ilan Goodman Production Coordinator: Stuart Laws Studio Engineer: Donald MacDonald Inside Health was produced by the BBC’s Audio Science Unit in collaboration with the Open University.
