Explanation:
'As this global public health crisis and near-pandemic has unfolded, however, what has come into focus is how representative the coronavirus outbreak is of many of the central challenges of our time.
Through the noise of countless updates, news alerts, and daily reports, I’ve come to see that the coronavirus outbreak is, in fact, a consequence of the choices human society has made on the environment, the world economy, and the distribution of wealth.'
The outbreak of novel coronavirus that emerged in Wuhan, China in late 2019 has become 2020’s biggest news story. It seems the spread of the virus and the disease it causes, COVID-19, is just getting started, and no one knows how bad it will get.
As a pediatrician based in Quebec, where there has been only one confirmed case of the virus, the outbreak has put me in a strange position.
Although I have greater general understanding of infectious diseases than most of my fellow citizens thanks to my medical training, I feel in many ways as in the dark as anyone else about the significance of COVID-19 for us in Canada, and what to do about it.
As this global public health crisis and near-pandemic has unfolded, however, what has come into focus is how representative the coronavirus outbreak is of several of the central challenges of our time.

Because COVID-19 is almost certainly a zoonotic disease, meaning it was passed from an animal host to humans, the story of this outbreak is also a story of environmental degradation.
Both climate change and habitat destruction are widely thought to accelerate zoonotic spillover, the process by which new viruses go from infecting animals to infecting humans.
This outbreak isn’t just about Chinese live animal markets, it’s about how human activity is altering the climate and ecosystems in ways that put us at risk.
Once we have contained the disease’s spread, we will need to reckon with how our abuse and mismanagement of natural resources and the environment helped get us into this mess.
The epidemic has laid bare many truths about our economic system. Our profound interconnectedness and reliance on the free movement of people is one. Our reliance on China as the world’s factory is another.
The fact that the coronavirus emerged in China, and that drastic containment measures have led to a major slowdown of China’s economic machine, has exposed what we can usually blissfully ignore.
