Join CCWA for our first Foreign Policy Forum of
the 2020-2021 season as we host a virtual conversation on global
health and the COVID-19 pandemic with Thomas Bollyky. Mr. Bollyky is
at the Council on Foreign Relations, where he serves as director of
the global health program and senior fellow for global health. He
will discuss advancements in health and urbanization over the past
century and the ways in which the world has been made more
vulnerable over time to emerging pathogens and plagues, like
COVID-19. After a brief look at the past, Mr. Bollyky will talk
about this pandemic, its spread, overall impact, and future
implications for the U.S. and the world.
Thomas J. Bollyky is director of the Global Health program and
senior fellow for global health, economics, and development at the
Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). He is also an adjunct professor
of law at Georgetown University. Mr. Bollyky is the author of the
book Plagues and the Paradox of Progress: Why the World Is Getting
Healthier in Worrisome Ways and the founder and managing editor of
Think Global Health.
