September Topic - Making COVID-19 The Last Pandemic

RIGHT NOW!!  As a nation and global we have an opportunity to ensure that COVID-19 is the LAST pandemic.  A pandemic free future won’t be inexpensive or easy, but can be done.  In his TED Talk presentation, “We Can Make COVID-19 The Last Pandemic,  Bill Gates, shares how he believes that we have the tools and the strategies to make this vision possible.  It is just a matter of funding!
