The COVID-19 Pandemic as a Public Health Teacher—the Lessons We Must Learn
Original language description
Statement of the Association of Schools of Public Health in the European Region (ASPHER)Learning From the PandemicSince 5th May 2023 COVID-19 is not considered a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC), rather “an established and ongoing health issue” [1]. This was a moment to celebrate achievements, like the dedication of healthcare workers but also to reflect on the mistakes made [1]. Many COVID-19 deaths are still reported to the World Health Organization (WHO) and remind us to learn from the past and take advantage of windows of opportunity before the next large-scale global health emergency. The Association of Schools of Public Health in the European Region (ASPHER)’s 20 key lessons learned and recommendations draw from three broad influences: international reports, ASPHER COVID-19 Task Force publications, and country perspectives.Lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic must be acted upon. Mistakes, including inevitable “public health errors”, were made but strong progress was made in epidemiology, healthcare and health sciences, and wider academic and other scientific fields.The pandemic highlighted the urgency of developing harmonised PH and competencies for epidemiology and other areas, and also better global governance. The ECDC-ASPHER Competency Framework for applied infectious disease epidemiology exemplifies harmonised approaches to investigating and controlling infectious diseases and capacity building of PH workforces across Europe.The ASPHER COVID-19 Task Force, now “Public Health Emergencies Task Force” will continue work to improve emergency preparedness. This will help harmonise new approaches post-pandemic, for PH to be better equipped and more resilient in future emergencies. We identified 20 priority lessons/themes below, to guide ASPHER.
