1. The world should have been better prepared for #Covid_19 says Pascal Soriot @AstraZeneca. We need to invest in prevention/detection - not wait for people to get sick - and shift mindsets to 'consider health as an asset we invest in rather than a cost to minimize'. #DavosAgenda
2. Industry must build good workplace #Covid_19 testing strategies to help restart the global economy, says Catharina Bohme @FINDdx. With the vaccine being rolled out, many countries are decreasing testing and 'we’re at a dangerous point'. #DavosAgenda

4. Mazen S. Darwazeh @hikmapharma says we need to rebuild trust in multinational organizations, increase collaboration between healthcare communities in the Arab world and support vulnerable communities with healthcare infrastructure. Technology can help too. #DavosAgenda
