Little over a week on from the first meningitis cases in Canterbury, many crucial questions remain.

So this week we’re taking an in-depth look at those questions and what we’ve learnt from this outbreak – and could it happen again?

James also hears from author Michael Rosen whose son Eddie died from meningitis aged 18 about just how quickly the disease struck and how he deals with his grief.

And would you trust health advice from an AI chatbot?

We hear from someone who regularly turns to ChatGPT and from GP Dr Margaret McCartney about her concerns.
