In this issue, we explore different perspectives on the global pandemic: Siddhartha Mukherjee writes about how past research advances may inform current approaches to combat Covid-19. Joseph L. Goldstein considers how artwork created during the 1918 influenza may have foreshadowed the current pandemic. Arturo Casadevall reviews the use of convalescent plasma against Covid-19.
And a special supplement to the journal Cell, produced in partnership with the Lasker Foundation, offers broader perspectives on infectious disease research.
