Special "COVID, 1 year later" day on RFi 

Why are research and care more than ever at the forefront?

We are going to ask ourselves how to meet the major challenges that we are going through, starting with the essential: equity of care, in the face of this virus vector of inequalities.

How to ensure access (for everyone and everywhere on the globe) to treatments and vaccines?

If there is war, this is the one that must be waged on the pandemic front.

How the pandemic must mobilize in parallel the powers of research and those of the self ... in the emergency and in the test first, but also over time to (re) build a world where it is good to live for everybody ?

Will the year 2021 be the year of the bond?

It is the best that we can wish each other individually and collectively.
