    Hi,

    This was a question to Acted tutors as well as students.
    Have you come across any past questions that are based on a pandemic?
    I haven't seen any so far but was wondering if I had missed any or haven't covered enough papers to see them?

    Not in any of the GI subjects, no. Haven't looked in others, eg health, life...

    I'd really feel for a candidate that might have lost loved ones during the Pandemic, then getting asked questions regarding it in the exam.

    Yes, some may think a question on this topic might be a bit 'raw'. Although I do recall, in September 2002's SA3 exam, a question all about a 'disaster'. The scenario was a series of earthquakes, but given the World Trade Center disaster in 2001, it's not hard to imagine where they got the idea from. So I wouldn't dismiss the idea altogether.
