There is now light at the end of the Covid19 pandemic tunnel as we benefit, thanks to
science and research, from greater understanding of the virus and from vaccines and
improved models of care and treatment. This episode of Story Scanner looks at what we
have learnt, the role of research and how we can be better equipped to face future
pandemics. Jérôme Adda, Dean for Research at Bocconi University, talks about the
importance of research and science in the last 18 months and of his studies looking into
comparative cost-effectiveness analysis of public policies during Covid19 and other
epidemics. Aleksandra Torbica, Director of CERGAS Bocconi and special advisor to
the Chair of the WHO Regional Office for Europe’s Pan-European Commission on
Health and Sustainable Development talks about the main findings and
recommendations of the Commission‘s report  ‘Drawing light from the pandemic: a new
strategy for Health and Sustainable Development’.
