Modesty has its limits and on this anniversary of Australiaâs first COVID-19 case, itâs time to tell the story of how our scientists took a bold leading role, bringing the world with them, as the pandemic began.
For the first three months, through preparedness and agility, they were able to bestow a number of scientific gifts that would help the world manage COVID-19.
In early January 2020, there was increasing chatter in the global infectious disease community about an unusual âpneumoniaâ in Wuhan.
