"I think COVID-19 is the common enemy of human beings. Owing to its high [infectiousness], it is impossible to be well under control. So if COVID-19 remains spreading by any of the countries in the world, so that's the point. We need to join together to end this spreading in the world. Any decisive action taken by policymakers must be based on science, evidence, and the best clinical trials. So my greatest fear will be the politicization of pressure to protect public health problems. So that's my greatest fear."

"My fear is that we will not adhere to the lessons learned. One of the problems that we have had in our approach to global health is that when you have a particular crisis, you respond to it and say what we need to do is learn lessons for the future. But then when the future comes, we lose our corporate memory and we don't do the things that we need to do. What is very clear right now is that we have to maintain the spirit of solidarity, cooperation, and collaboration and build global health security agendas and network, so that we're all in it together, every single country. And we prepare in a way that we've learned the lessons that were really very painful lessons that we learned from this outbreak."

We have the same goal to deal with that. So the cooperation together is very, very important."

By a combination of cooperative public health measures and the application of science to get interventions in the form of vaccines and therapies and other types of interventions."

Leading Chinese respiratory disease expert Zhong Nanshan and top U.S. infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci called for global collaboration in the fight against COVID-19 while addressing the virtual Edinburgh Futures Conversations on Tuesday.
At the event hosted by the University of Edinburgh and the Edinburgh Futures Institute, the two experts shared their hopes and fears surrounding the pandemic and explored how public health systems can be reshaped to transform outcomes.
Dr. Zhong said he fears that the politicization of the disease is undermining decision-making and global unity.

For his part, U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Dr. Fauci said he fears that in the future mankind will forget about the hard-won lessons the health community has gained from combating COVID-19.

Despite the challenges, Zhong would like to see all countries maintain a spirit of solidarity and work together to vaccinate as many people as possible.

Dr. Fauci pointed to past successes with polio, measles, and other diseases as proof that the world can defeat the novel coronavirus.
