COVID QUESTIONS | anything good?
Has anything good come from the pandemic?
COLLEEN KELLY: “While we are dealing with vaccine hesitancy, we have also ignited a global interest in and love of vaccines and vaccinology that had tapered off before the COVID-19 pandemic. Certainly there are no silver linings to COVID-19, with so many millions dead, but for young scientists to be inspired to commit their careers to vaccinology, that’s a great thing. And I think countries and governments are going to reexamine their public health systems, reexamine vaccines from development to deployment and all steps in between, to improve health for everyone.
