This week on WDYTAX, Simon and Adam are joined by two very special guests:

  • Jude Reid - Consultant Surgeon
  • Jonathon Gregory - Nutrition Nurse Specialist

They have taken time out of their incredibly busy schedules to discuss the potential dangers of the hero narrative surrounding healthcare workers that has evolved throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. We're honoured to be able to share some insights from people directly affected by it and ponder what the next year or so might hold. We discuss two articles in the show which can be found here:
