The COVID-19 pandemic has been difficult time. In many ways it has also pushed medicine forward, accelerating many developments in medicine that would have taken decades to happen under normal circumstances. We asked team members from across Johns Hopkins Medicine what they thought were the big ideas that emerged as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In March 2020, the first patients were first diagnosed with COVID-19 in Johns Hopkins Medicine’s hospitals. Two years later, we commemorate those we lost to the virus and those we discharged safely to their loved ones. The challenges continue, but we are optimistic about what’s ahead. Together, we are moving forward with hope.
