Experts Warn of COVID-19’s Lasting Impact on Global Health

Two prominent healthcare experts are sounding the alarm on the long-term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on global health. Luciana Borio, a physician and former director for medical and biodefense preparedness policy at the National Security Council, is also a senior fellow for global health at the Council on Foreign Relations. Scott Gottlieb, a physician and former commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration, shares her views as a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute.

Gottlieb’s experience in regulating pharmaceuticals has given him insight into how COVID-19 treatments have impacted public health. Both experts highlight the need for continued vigilance to prevent future pandemics and ensure global preparedness.
