Description
Summary:[...]unlike many disasters that may cause immediate damage but then allow for a recovery period, COVID-19 has had a prolonged impact; the virus has continued to spread and mutate, requiring ongoing efforts to manage and control it. [...]the health impact associated with the virus has been profound; while some disasters primarily affect infrastructure or property, COVID-19 has had a significant impact on population health. [...]the impact of the pandemic on social interactions has been profound. In response to the continued lockdowns globally, and in the face of the rising death toll, strain on hospital and healthcare resources, and fear about the unknown, the Natural Hazards Center at the University of Colorado at Boulder issued a call for working groups under their CONVERGE network programme.
