Friday, October 11th, at 2 p.m., in the SouthWest Library, will be 2024's last Great Decisions discussion.  The topic is: " Pandemic Preparedness; ending the deadly cycle of panic and neglect."   The Covid-19 pandemic seems to have waned.  What have we learned for use in future pandemics?  Will countries cooperate and develop a consensus on how to manage threats to global health?  For further information or questions, contact Rachel Hecht at [email protected] or 202-554-2023.
