International cooperation during the COVID-19 pandemic
探讨了全球公共产品概念在COVID-19大流行中的应用,认为公共卫生任务尤其是传染病控制应作为全球公共产品,通过国际合作有效提供,并提出了合作应对和融资思路。
This paper explores the concept of 'global public goods' (GPGs) in the context of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. It argues that many of the tasks involved in public health, and in particular those involved in the control of an infectious disease like COVID-19, ought to be treated as GPGs that can only be effectively delivered through international cooperation. It sets out what a cooperative response to the COVID-19 pandemic should look like and introduces ideas for further discussion about how it might be financed.
