Life As We Knew It: the extraordinary story of Australia’s pandemic

Life As We Knew It: the extraordinary story of Australia’s pandemic

We're joined by multi-award winning journalists, Aisha Dow and Melissa Cunningham, to chat about their new book Life As We Knew It.

The book tells the gripping inside account of Australia’s extraordinary pandemic story. It has been described by our very own Peter Doherty as a “Terrific account of Australia’s outstanding political and public health response to COVID-19.” He says: “We all lived through it, and it’s our story”.

Aisha Dow is health editor at The Age and Melissa Cunningham is a reporter for The Sunday Age.
