View descriptionShare

With millions of Aussies still in lockdown, it's tempting to look overseas and assume that other countries must be doing a better job when it comes to rolling out the vaccine, and rolling back the restrictions.

The Quicky speaks to two experts based in England to find out whether what's happening there is the future of living with COVID-19, or a total disaster.
