On the program of this Pandemic Journal produced in partnership with Groupe VYV and moderated by Dr Jean-François Lemoine: Professor Eric Caumes explains why the “zero Covid” strategy adopted in Southeast Asia and Australia is impossible to lead in France; and Professor Elie Azoulay recalls how an intensive care unit works and why the rapid creation of thousands of beds – promised by Emmanuel Macron – is illusory without long training of healthcare teams.
