Fig. 5: The Multiscale Health Action Matrix was a collaborative effort by the Multiscale Impact WG to begin to chart the full range of spatiotemporal scales and factors that need to be considered to understand and respond to COVID-19 and future pandemics.

Fig. 5:

The spatial scales (Y-Axis) range from the atomic/ molecular to systems, individuals, society and global-ecological. Temporally (X-Axis), the key events and factors precede the pandemic and personal infection. The timeline extends into the future to include long-COVID and post-pandemic considerations, thus reflecting the cyclical challenge of pandemic conditions.
