MONTREAL, QC (04/22/20): How have past generations managed global pandemics? What role has politics played in how governments address health crises? What lessons from recent epidemics like HIV/AIDS are informing how scientists are responding to COVID-19?
Join us for another in our series of webcasts as two McGill experts explore the current COVID-19 pandemic through the lens of history, reaching back to past plagues and diseases, as well as more recent challenges, to help us understand how scientists, politicians and the rest of us are responding to the current crisis, and what the past might tell us about what kind of world will emerge.
With:
Dr. Marina Klein, Professor, Department of Medicine, Division of Infectious Diseases, and Senior Scientist, McGill University Health Centre – Research Institute
Prof. Jason Opal, Associate Professor and Chair, Department of History and Classical Studies, co-author of an upcoming book on the history of diseases in American life.
