Avoiding the Tsunami? The power of preparation and information | COVID 19

from TopMedTalk

This piece is something of a ray of hope, here we learn how New Zealand appears to have managed the crisis remarkably well, a low level of infections overall. What lessons can be learned from the political leadership and tactic deployed here? Is there a downside to this, as regards to 'herd immunity', or is the reality that all of us must wait for a vaccine? Presented by Desiree Chappell and Monty Mythen with Julian Fuller, Anaesthetist in Auckland, New Zealand. Thank you to our sponsor Edwards Lifesciences.
