Almost a year after the start of the pandemic, we still face a lack of PPEs and a shortage of health professionals. According to PSI General Secretary Rosa Pavanelli, this shows both the total absence of a clear "strategic approach" to deal with Covid-19 and the results of 30 years of austerity programs.

"The second wave has arrived, but the same problems persist"

Overview

Covid-19 affected countries around the world in different magnitudes but all had to rapidly put in place a response which impacted health service delivery to an extent unlike any before in such a short period of time.

This unprecedented situation calls for the health service community to come together ​to support each other through this pandemic, to share and discuss experiences, challenges, insights and solutions. Learning from Covid-19, Transforming Health Services, a virtual forum for hospital and healthcare leaders, is an opportunity for us to debrief and discuss learnings from the crisis, address key questions on strategies for the new normal, and explore how health services are transforming for the future.
