COVID-19 special edition
The COVID-19 pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus has plunged the world into an unprecedented crisis for human health and the global economy. With Hong Kong universities at the forefront of research to understand and combat the novel coronavirus and its health and societal impacts, the Croucher Foundation has created a special news section to keep the global and local community up to date with their many contributions.
In this special news section, we have investigated Hong Kong’s contribution, talked to some of the leading virologists, microbiologists and epidemiologists, sought expert opinion on the implications for mental health, and public health education, and compiled round-ups of COVID-19 scientific and societal research outputs from different universities in the city.
