Pandemic Resilience: Work and School

Date: 

Thursday, May 21, 2020, 5:00pm to 6:00pm

Location: 

Zoom webinar

Meredith Rosenthal, Sharon Block, and Meira Levinson will discuss Pandemic Resilience and Work and Schools in this conversation of our COVID-19 white paper series. The discussion will be moderated by Carmel Shachar. This event is co-sponsored by the Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology, and Bioethics.

In order to successfully combat the COVID-19 epidemic, we need to thoughtfully mobilize and utilize all resources available. The Edmond J. Safra Center’s COVID-19 Response Initiative, a bipartisan group of experts in economics, public health, technology and ethics from across the country, has released the nation’s first comprehensive operational roadmap for mobilizing and reopening the U.S. economy in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis.

We are exploring this operational roadmap to pandemic resilience in a series of events. We will focus on work and schools in this second discussion on reopening the country.
