In full: Covid Inquiry Chairman presents Report Findings

Baroness Heather Hallett, the chair of the Covid Inquiry, has just published her long awaited report into government decision-making during the pandemic.

Lady Hallett will shortly address her findings which included that lockdowns could have been “avoided entirely” during the pandemic had ministers reacted more quickly to the emerging threat of the virus.

The near 800 page report comes two years after Boris Johnson and other senior ministers gave evidence to the inquiry.

Lady Hallett said that if “stringent restrictions” had been put in place before March 16, 2020, there might have been no need for a lockdown.

However, a “toxic and chaotic culture” at the centre of the government meant the pandemic response was often “too little, too late”, meaning a lockdown became inevitable.

Today’s report is the second of 10 to be produced by the inquiry but the most highly anticipated after 69 days of hearings across the UK which heard from Boris Johnson, Matt Hancock, Rishi Sunak and advisors including Dominic Cummings.
