About this program

Who better to take on the viral pandemic and economic chaos than two psychiatrists? Steve Ellen (Dr Doolittle) and Rob Selzer (Dr Mal Practice) from Radiotherapy examine the major changes Coronavirus (Covid-19) has foisted upon us and our responses to them. Using this period of social distancing as an opportunity for reflection and analysis, Steve and Rob present the psychological aspects of the greatest challenge humanity has faced in generations.
