Abstract

This paper explores the concept of ‘global public goods’ (GPGs) in the context of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. It argues that many of the tasks involved in public health, and in particular those involved in the control of an infectious disease like COVID-19, ought to be treated as GPGs that can only be effectively delivered through international cooperation. It sets out what a cooperative response to the COVID-19 pandemic should look like and introduces ideas for further discussion about how it might be financed.

COVID-19大流行期间的国际合作

摘要

本文在持续的COVID-19大流行中探讨了“全球公益”（GPG）的概念。它认为，许多与公共卫生有关的任务，特别是与控制传染性疾病（如COVID-19）有关的任务，应被视为只能通过国际合作才能有效完成的GPG。它提出了对COVID-19大流行的合作应对方式，并提出了进一步讨论如何筹集资金的想法。
