Learning From The Pandemic: How We Can Improve The Healthcare System Post-COVID With John Chessare

The recent pandemic exposed the many flaws in the current healthcare system. Now, how do we deal with these realizations post-COVID? Do we just go back to how things were? Or, do we re-design care for the better?
