COVID-19 is arguably the greatest global public health challenge of our time, jeopardizing the health and well-being and economies of the entire global community. The United States and China, as two of the world’s most populous nations and largest economies, need to lead the international effort to contain the further spread of COVID-19 and to mitigate the negative global health and socioeconomic impacts. There is a Chinese saying, feng yu tong zhou, meaning “wind and rain, we all are in the same boat”; and there is a western saying, “united we stand, divided we fall.” The novel coronavirus respects no national boundaries, political affiliations, ethnicities or socioeconomic status—we are all in the same boat. But the very interconnectedness of people, resources and economies that makes the coronavirus such a threat is also precisely our greatest weapon against the outbreak!

Established in January 2020 and chaired by Florence Fang, the U.S.-China Coronavirus Action Network (CAN) activated scientific, academic, industrial, non-profit and governmental resources from both countries in a coordinated effort to address the key challenges of containing the virus. By combining the capacities and efforts of each and every one of our networks and pooling collective resources and operations together to take decisive actions in this fight, we stand the best chance of battling this virus and eliminating it as soon as possible.
