Everyone is at risk from COVID-19, but all have not
suffered equally. Early indications point to an unequal pattern of

pandemic’s effects on inequality, including labor markets and gender
impacts. If you missed the event live, you can catch a replay here!
Strong primary health care (PHC) saves lives and

current COVID-19 crisis has exacerbated pre-existing weaknesses and
inflicted devastating health and economic costs. A new World Bank report
calls for significant investment in primary health care in developing
countries.
