We are beginning to enter into a new era in the fight against Covid-19, but there is yet more work to be done. Read more below.

1. Reduce Teams

Even with the global effort to rollout effective vaccines, we are all aware of the fact that there remain many miles between us and an exact replica of the lives we led prior to Covid-19. For one thing, achieving immunity across entire nations will take time and, in some cases, a great deal of perseverance and compromise. For another, the risk of mutations and an endemic status is all too real – and something that must be prepared for both within and beyond the healthcare industry.

Within hospitals, enhanced management of staff and the reduction of teams (in order to mitigate the potential spread of infection) has proven vital to the fight against this virus. Utilizing technologies that call for fewer personnel to be present in any given area, such as robotic surgeries and self-retaining retractors such as this one junemedical.com will prove vital going forward.

2. Design Differently

In a similar vein, the fundamental design of the hospital must adapt to a world much more attuned to the risks of highly infectious diseases. Beyond ensuring that there are sufficient beds to see hospitals through the peak of a pandemic, new hospitals will need to ensure that they are designed for isolating infectious cases and ensuring that highly vulnerable patients, such as those undergoing chemotherapy.

3. Increase Education

Protecting the health industry via new techniques, methodologies and practices to be adopted by healthcare workers is only half of the story. Arming ourselves against further devastation means improving education on a large and small scale.

Many of us are aware of the fact that climate change is rapidly accelerating our risk of contracting zoonotic diseases, leading to yet more highly infectious pandemics by which the global industry will once again be brought to its knees. 

While covid-19 was most commonly referred to as an unprecedented occurrence, we can feel confident that the next one – and those that follow – will not be, unless governments make educating citizens around the world a priority.

4. Develop Pivotal Technologies

Our ability to see the light at the end of the tunnel is largely down to the development of pivotal technologies – most notably, ultracold storage, which has enabled governments to rollout messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines in areas that, until recently, were not yet equipped for such temperatures. Safeguarding the health industry will demand more than a temporary solution. Rather, a long-term investment into making these facilities ubiquitous will ensure greater preparation in the future – particularly if these vaccines are required seasonally. 

5. A New System for Research

One of the most notable effects of Covid-19 is its ability to rapidly undermine the collective scientific progress achieved by nations around the world across centuries. For months, the virus dominated where modern science and medicine could, for the most part, only flounder and attempt to pick up the pieces as and when they fell.

Medical and scientific communities around the world have since made it clear that scientific inquiry must change from now on. From making it more open – and making use of our ability to collaborate with specialized teams around the world – to diversification, the ongoing influence of Covid-19 can be used to instate positive change, rather than ongoing damage.
