Great Decisions – 11/11/24

“Great Decisions” Meets next Monday, November 11

“Pandemic Preparedness”

“Great Decisions” will meet again on Monday, November 11, at 6:00 p.m. in the Walpole Town Library. Our topic for discussion is Pandemic Preparedness. The risk of a global epidemic has not diminished since the Covid-19 pandemic, so what have we learned and what can be done to prepare as a nation and as a member of the international community? What is the objective of the Global Pandemic Treaty, and what are the roadblocks to an agreement?

The relevant reading from the Foreign Policy Association is “Pandemic Preparedness: Ending the Deadly Cycle of Panic and Neglect,” by Carolyn Reynolds. For a copy of this article and/or the meeting’s Zoom link, please contact Library Director Jane Malmberg at jmalmberg@walpoletownlibrary.org
