The coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) is a crisis like no other.

The past few months, we’ve learned that a pandemic is a fast-evolving crisis that cripples our health care system. For many days, we’ve held on to an optimistic notion that we would go back to our pre-crisis lives. But now that we are transitioning to a more relaxed form of quarantine, we are slapped with the reality that Covid-19 has posed seemingly unfathomable challenges to our lives. It is an understatement to say that the pandemic paralyzed our health care systems and our economies like never before.
