In a recent article in UN News (shared on the HIFA forum), WHO Regional Director for Europe, Dr Hans Kluge, is quoted as saying: “Collective amnesia on COVID-19 has set in and this is concerning,.” He added: “Individuals, communities, and countries understandably want to move on from the trauma of the pandemic years. Yet COVID-19 is still very much with us, co-circulating with other respiratory viruses.” What do YOU think? Is there collective amnesia on COVID-19? What are your experiences? What can be done to improve the situation? Why not share your views and experiences on the HIFA forums? Not yet a HIFA member?
