Call for Engineering Action on the COVID-19 Crisis Posted3/31/2020 10:23:52 AM https://www.nae.edu/230195/Call-for-Engineering-Response-to-the-COVID19-Crisis While the current COVID-19 crisis is separating us physically, it also compels us to work together to address its accompanying societal and economic challenges, ranging from arresting the contagion to relieving the health care stress to production of vaccines to reimagining life in today’s remote working and learning environment. These challenges are ideally suited for engineers, but the first step is bringing together people with great ideas. This project provides a mechanism for that to happen.
