The question that all of us are thinking at this time when we are sheltered at home is how will this pandemic end. Especially since it has now been almost 2 months and there seems to be no end in sight. This almost hour-long conversation as part of the TED Connects series lays out a compelling plan for ending the pandemic. Check it out.
An ethical plan for ending the pandemic and restarting the economy
As COVID-19 continues to spread, the world is facing two existential threats at once: a public health emergency and an economic crisis. Political theorist Danielle Allen describes how we can ethically and democratically address both problems by scaling up "smart testing," which would track positive cases with peer-to-peer software on people's cell phones -- so we can end the pandemic and get back to work.
