Covid-19 Radio Ballad

Seems like it would be an idea to create a Radio Ballad (or more) about Covid-19 and its affect upon the lives of folks in the UK.

Ewan MacColl and Charles Parker created one about Polio:

* The Body Blow
The psychology of pain - people with polio.

And then in 2006 another raft of RBs came along including one about HIV/AIDS:

* Enemy That Lives Within
Modern stories of people living with HIV/AIDS.

Could a Radio Ballad about Covid-19 be written?

It could include interviews with NHS 'Hero' staff, those who lost loved ones, attitudes towards the Government's mishandling, the lack of PPE, deaths in care homes, living in lockdown, schooling at home, affects of relaxation of lockdown, re-infections after lifting of lockdown, searches for a vaccine, slave workers in Leicester's cheap clothing sweat shops, Sir Captain Tom, etc., etc.

Perhaps if anyone is in touch with Peggy Seeger she might be involved. Ditto the MacColl family
