Dr Nabarro said, "Collective action is the key to the future. We need to invest enough in the local level public health systems for the continuation of regular health care services during the pandemic situations like this."

"We need a worldwide campaign on Covid-19. It should be led by the practitioners of the local level in the cities, villages, communities, groups, societies. The community should be strengthened, empowered and equipped with updated information and knowledge to fight the impacts of the pandemic," he added

Dr Nabarro expressed his hope about the future of Bangladesh and thanked the leaders of the country for their role in keeping the virus in control.

Dr Shamim Hayder Talukder said, "In Bangladesh, we are trying to engage the civil society for developing a risk communication plan for 2021-2041. We are also working on the development of a digital health care system in Bangladesh."

"We hope we can drive the health system towards the needs of the mass people with some solid contributions to the people of Bangladesh and the world," He added.

The webinar was broadcasted live from the official facebook page of the Eminence Associates for Social Development, the press release informed.
