It’s a time to reflect
Eventually, we will get over this crisis, but too many people will have died. The economy will be severely scarred, and the threat of pandemics will remain. Now more than ever, we need a comprehensive global response. The world before the pandemic and after the pandemic cannot be the same. We must avoid the mistakes made throughout the 20th and early 21st centuries by undertaking fundamental reforms to ensure that we never again face the threat of pandemics.
