The State of the Union, on the Covid agenda

(ANSA) - ROME, MAY 07 - Within a few weeks, Covid-19 has changed the lives of billions of people across the planet: health systems are in trouble, the measures of lockdown are having an unprecedented impact on social and social economy of all the affected countries and the world questions what this emergency means.
   Therefore, the annual conference 'The State of the Union', which tomorrow will gather experts from all over the world to discuss what will change during and after the passage of the new coronavirus, could not have focused on a different theme.
