COVID-19 demonstrated the crucial necessity for strong international cooperation in attaining global public health and safety objectives, that domestic law and policy responses are inadequate to enforce, and preventing global detriment that occurs when policies are not followed. * Channa Weiss is an international law and human rights attorney based in Los Angeles, CA who is of counsel to several NGO organizations and law firms.
