"""Future generations may find our generation's extreme COVID-19 measures bewildering. This enlightening and far-sighted collection demonstrates that some rose above the fray and looked to the future. Expertly edited and co-authored by Christine Loh, this book shows how some in our generation kept their heads while others were losing theirs.""-- ""Naubahar Sharif, professor, Division of Public Policy, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology"" ""Loh and colleagues have once again provided a clear, multidimensional set of lessons on the global pandemic that is at once contextualised to Hong Kong. This is an excellent follow-up to a similar volume for the 2003 SARS outbreak--sadly plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose--lest future history repeat given the inevitability of more emerging outbreaks to come.""-- ""Gabriel Leung, honorary professor and former dean of medicine, the University of Hong Kong"""
