Viral is a podcast series looking at the spread of COVID 19 as it continues to affect Ireland and the International world in a growing capacity. 

Intensive care unit capacity has been one of the focal points in Ireland’s approach to combating the Coronavirus outbreak, and a huge emphasis since day one, has been made in maximising the allocation of resources. On today's podcast , The Irish Sun’s Adam Higgins speaks about a Patient Evaluation Process being carried out at major hospitals along the west coast of Ireland, that ranks patients numerically by age, medical conditions and sometimes by gender in a bid to prioritise ICU capacity. 

We also take a look at the chequered past of Home-working and discuss whether a cultural move towards remote work is something that only benefits the privileged in society with Helen McCarthy, Cambridge University Historian and author of Double Lives: A History of Working Motherhood.
