In the first episode of The Trust Race, we explore the complex public response to mask-wearing during the COVID-19 pandemic. We speak with science journalist Alok Jha about how our understanding of masks as a way to reduce infection evolved over time, and we speak with philosopher Professor Heather Douglas about how and why mask-wearing became politicised.
