🦠 The COVID-19 outbreak has been declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization, causing a huge impact on people’s lives, families and communities. Many countries around the world have put in place measures to combat the sanitary crisis, ranging from travel bans to restrictions to public movement, allowing only trips to buy food, medicines or essential products. Are these strategies based on reliable data? What about the current crisis worries us the most? What is the timeline for the development of an effective treatment and/or vaccine?
The STOA Panel has invited high-level experts to discuss these questions and, in particular, the scientific and technological options and policy strategies in response to this world crisis.
