COVID-19 – One Year On | Carte Blanche | M-Net

After a year of unparalleled tribulation with the country in the grip of a global pandemic, Carte Blanche recaps what happened to people featured in nearly 50 stories from the past year who were simply trying to make the best of a bad situation. We went from the first shocks of having to close businesses as lockdown hit hard, to birthing new life in isolation without partners by their side, and following frontline workers struggling on the job, in the face of the unknown, without sleep as patients battled the disease and its long-term impact. We unpacked the science as it developed and the politics of coming to terms with the disease and treatments, all while trying to find reasons to hope. Now, we celebrate the grit and tenacity of some amazing South Africans that survived and thrived.

I might have lost 5 today, but I saved 1! This is a fellow doctor hanging at the edge of despair, we all have at some point since March 2020! Even saving 1 life keeps us going. Doctors will need trauma counseling after this and please, let's work together to minimize the 3rd wave as much as we can. PLEASE!!!

Love Carte Blanche, love the team, love the host(NB. A PROUDLY SA REP, AND HE NEVER AGES :-) ), would love to see more diversification from different social walks of life, especially to a program on Covid-19 as it had genuinely impacted many socio-economic groups. Maybe you can find positive success stories in the hard hit socio-economic groups, and maybe a genuine success story, "hypothetically" speaking with a positive result to the person being interviewed and the positive impact they might have had in there community or operating market/sector as hope is needed in that area of market.
