Synopsis:

Singapore is at the front-line of the global fight against coronavirus. That battle is far from over, but there are still valuable lessons to be learned from its early stages across Asia. What has worked so far in the medical fightback against coronavirus, and what lessons can be learned for the next stage of the pandemic in Asia and elsewhere around the world? This event will launch a new series of online discussions on the global pandemic as part of the Lee Kuan Yew School’s “Asia Thinker Series”, bringing together a distinguished virtual panel of experts to examine public health lessons from the ongoing crisis, while looking forward to how to manage its next stages.
