Seminar on “International Webinar on COVID-19” at the 17th NSTDA Annual Conference: NAC2022, held from 28-31 March 2022. For more information, please visit our website https://www.nstda.or.th/nac/2022

The global pandemic of COVID-19 requires a rapid global response. Since the first infected patient was detected in Wuhan, China, this infectious disease broke out in almost every country in the world, resulting in a devastating number of infections as well as fatalities. Meanwhile, highly contagious variants keep emerging, igniting new waves of COVID and creating serious impacts on societies and economies around the world. It is, therefore, vital that effective diagnostics, treatments, and a vaccine are urgently developed and deployed. Without them, every country will remain vulnerable. Countries and organizations at various levels are joining forces to ensure that life-saving tools are not only developed, but also made universally available and affordable for everyone. No person, country, or region should be left behind.

In response to this concern, the National Science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA) as a national science and technology research agency in Thailand is hosting an International Webinar on COVID-19 on 29 March 2022 to review the current COVID-19 situation. This webinar is one of many sessions embedded in the NSTDA Annual Conference 2022 (NAC2022) and will be organized via the Cisco WebEx platform. The session will bring together experts and researchers to present, share and discuss improvements and alternative solutions to cope with the global pandemic in order to increase knowledge and positively impact our responses to this pandemic.
