About this Talk

The COVID-19 pandemic is an unprecedented global security challenge that conventional paradigms fail to address. How should security professionals think about a war where the enemy is a virus and the battlefield is the human body? How can policy makers integrate local, national, and international efforts to combat the pandemic? What are best practices that we can implement to mitigate the effects of COVID-19?
