Abstract

This supplemental statement focuses on missed opportunities—potential conclusions and recommendations within the project’s Statement of Task, illuminated by the COVID-19 experience, that were not included in the report. I regard these as critical omissions because I do not think the goal of a National Academies report should be to publish a tome, or to compile a long list of approved areas for possible funding and future policy development. In my view, its goal should be to make a compelling case for action and advocacy through clear, unmistakable statements combining data, insight, and purpose.
