Over the past two years, the Covid-19 pandemic has cost the lives of millions of people, paralysed our societies and economies, infringed on our rights, and significantly increased inequalities. It is important to take stock and learn from these past years in order to make sure that in the future, Europe is better prepared to respond to such crises. With this objective, the S&Ds put forward the idea to set up a European Parliament special committee on Covid-19 to analyse all aspects of the pandemic and its implications. The work starts today.
