Dear Joseph
Thank you very much for this positive feedback. I was also struck by the foresight of HIFA members during the January discussion, particularly today when WHO officially labelled coronavirus a pandemic. I think the ability of HIFA members to foresee the future is a strength that we should be harnessing!
To HIFA members reading this, if you feel inspired to post comments on the forum about any of the issues raised in this and subsequent blogs, please go ahead. If you have any suggestions for improving the blog, please contact me at martinmichaelcarroll(at)icloud(dot)com
