India China Center webinar on Covid in Asia

Exemplars in Global Health? Comparing Asia’s Many Responses to COVID 19

Thursday, November 12. 9:00-10:30am EST/7:30pm New Delhi/10:00pm Beijing

Even as the COVID 19 pandemic continues to be marked by ebbs and flows, a handful of countries in Asia have had relatively sustained success in curtailing morbidity and mortality due to the virus. No single reason – such as regime type, surveillance technology, or experience with past epidemics – seems to explain these countries’ comparative achievements. This panel will bring together experts from different states including Japan, Vietnam, China, and South Korea. The juxtaposition of these national experiences will aim to illuminate the constellation of historical, political, infrastructural and other factors that undergird competent public health responses.

Presented by India China Institute, the Julien J. Studley Graduate Programs in International Affairs at Schools of Public Engagement.
