QC #56 - COVID & Society - What is the impact of COVID-19 in vulnerable countries?
Description
The coronavirus doesn't discriminate and it doesn't care about borders. And yet, infection and death rates are different depending on the country you look at. Much research is being done on and in western countries and China. But we know much less about the impact the virus has or can have in low and middle-income countries such as Bangladesh, Nigeria or Bolivia. Professor of Public Health Epidemiology Marianne van der Sande (Julius Centre) explores what the virus will mean for these vulnerable countries. The course 'COVID & Society' is brought by UMC Utrecht. Experts from different scientific areas teach us how we should be dealing with the outbreak from different perspectives. Watch these interdisciplinary webinars about the corona outbreak and its implications, with perspectives from the biomedical sciences, the social sciences, and the humanities.
