Living with COVID-19: Time to get our act together on health emergencies and UHC

UHC2030 "The COVID-19 pandemic has substantial health, social and economic impacts, in all countries, rich and poor. We will be living with COVID-19 and its consequences for a long time to come. It is a global crisis requiring sustained international solidarity and action. (...) COVID-19 is raising questions: where to start thinking differently, and what to start doing differently, to be better prepared for emergencies as well as make progress on UHC? Do new opportunities exist to make such changes?" (Photo: World Bank Photo Collection/flickr, CC BY-NC-ND 2.0)
