From the team that brings you Liverpool Live comes COVIDCast, hosted by Mick Coyle. Each episode we'll be discussing the impact the COVID-19 pandemic is having on communities, institutions, and individuals.

On today's episode:
- Verity Hall & Tai Wang from SEWcial Mask on rallying volunteers across Merseyside to produce free filter masks to help relieve the supply pressure on surgical PPE.
- Imran Hussain from Action For Children on the risks facing children, with many families 'a pay cheque away' from going without essentials.
- Special Correspondent Georgie Prodromou speaks with some of the first volunteers for COVID-19 vaccine trials.
- And as ever, Pete Price on 'Life Under Lockdown'.
