former bbc china editor carrie gracie investigates how it delayed reporting the initial outbreak andpsetting. tonight, we investigate how china covered up the scale of its coronavirus crisis. why didn't they tell the rest of the world earlier what was happening and how dangerous it was? the doctors and scientists prevented from telling the truth. instead of listening to its own people it has silenced them and we are all paying the price. we hear from those who've investigated the outbreak. i know how efficient the virus was spreading, it can go, er, with people by flights from one city thousands of miles away. and a government that insists it was open and transparent throughout. there was no cover—up at all. with warnings this crisis may yet get worse, we ask can china be trusted if it happens again? this may just be the dress rehearsal. we need to be ready for what could potentially be even a worse pandemic. tv: chinese health authorities are still working to identify the virus behind a pneumonia outbreak in the central city of wuhan...

earlier my colleague carrie gracie got the thoughts of childhood obesity campaigner and chef, jamie olivert, i think a pivotal moment actually. we have been working on this for five years, all of these points were in the first chapter of the obesity strategy with mr cameron. we've gone a long way since then. ups and mainly downs. this feels like a joined up, more holistic approach, it feels bold and it feels that finally, we have a prime minister who is taking this seriously. how it came to be, who knows? but i think the environment at the moment now is amplifying the importance of good health and a good immune system, it probably has given it a little push needed. when you say the environment at the moment, do you mean the link between obesity and covid—i9, severe illness and death? absolutely. i think there is an intrinsic link between diet and disease and the severity of covid—i9. i think we want to arm ourselves against that but going back before covid—i9, diet —related disease is the biggest driver for people through the nhs, the most powerful thing we can do to support the nhs is not
