April 2022

Two years of fighting the pandemic have taught us a lot. Over the past two years, everyone’s life has been hugely affected, and fighting COVID has become part of our social and family life. Thanks to the development and use of COVID vaccines and antiviral drugs, life is gradually returning to normal. But just like its close relative the flu, COVID keeps coming back in wave after wave in different countries and regions, with new variants replacing old ones. As variants emerge and the pandemic challenges local public health systems in different ways, scientists and the media have been led by the nose by the virus, racing ahead and now and then falling flat on their faces. Whatever the case, one thing deserves recognition: people across society are doing their best!
