Vatican City, 22 July 2020.-
It is entitled "Humana
Communitas in the Age of Pandemic: untimely meditations on Life's
Rebirth" and it is the second document - the
first one is from 30 March 2020 - that the Pontifical Academy for
Life dedicates to the consequences of the world health crisis and its
interpretation.
«In
the suffering and death of so many, we have learned the lesson of fragility»,
stresses the text.
The
document underlines the importance of a change of pace: global efforts and a
determined international cooperation are needed to face the challenge of a
fairer and more just future, whose keywords are better health care for all and
vaccination.
«We
have not payed sufficient attention, especially at the global level, to human
interdependence and common vulnerability. While the virus does not recognize
borders, countries have sealed their frontiers. In contrast to other disasters,
the pandemic does not impact all countries at the same time. Although this
might offer the opportunity to learn from experiences and policies of other
countries, learning processes at the global level were minimal. In fact, some
countries have sometimes engaged in a cynical game of reciprocal blame».

Stefano Semplici, prof. Henk ten Have.
