Has physical distancing worked? Will a vaccine come any time soon? Will life ever return to what it used to be?

Since the identification of COVID-19 in December 2019, life as we knew it has changed dramatically. The World Health Organization declared the outbreak a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on 30 January 2020 which escalated to pandemic status on 11 March 2020. In 2020, physical distancing became the new norm, regarded as essential to prevent the spread in the absence of a vaccine or effective antiviral treatment. The virus has caused significant social and financial disruption.

Join the UNSW School of Public Health and Community Medicine, UNSW Sydney at 12pm on Friday 8th May as their infectious disease intelligence expert panel answer these questions and stare into the crystal ball to understand what may be ahead.
