CHAIRMAN’S LETTER

The COVID-19 pandemic has wrought devastation across the globe. As of the publication of this report, millions of cases have emerged around the world and more than 100,000 deaths have occurred in the United States.

FOREWORD

The novel coronavirus pandemic has affected nearly every country around the world and led to one of the most far-reaching crises in generations.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The phases and accompanying recommendations that follow detail the “all of society” approach that this requires, recognizing that decisions to reopen the American economy must proceed expeditiously and that our recovery over the months to come cannot follow a national or top-down approach.

SUCCESS STORIES

It is critical that there be an active partnership between governments at all levels, businesses, and civil society for a successful recovery.
