Despite the availability of preparedness plans, emergency and crisis structures in place, and social policy ostensibly capable of managing the effects of social disruptions, the COVID-19 pandemic has been deemed an ‘unprecedented event’. It disrupted the lives of many people in fundamental ways, and brought up new questions around death. Due to the virus’ interactions with its surroundings, people have different exposures and thus different chances to get ill and die. Despite popular media notions ‘we’re all in this together’, social inequities have grown during the pandemic. Healthcare policies produced variegated responses to the pandemic, often reproducing existing inequalities. This article explores the role of COVID-19 virus in changing healthcare policies. Drawing on the analysis of policy documents and interviews with key informants in the context of Wales (UK), conducted as a part of the cross-European COVINFORM project, the paper analyses the workings of the virus and its alteration of the functions of healthcare governance. |
