Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
What does it mean for an epidemic to end, and who gets to declare that it is over? This talk presents the finding of Oxford’s multidisciplinary project ‘How Epidemics End’, which analyses the various ways in which epidemics have ended as well as how different disciplines measure and define an epidemic’s ending. More broadly, it explains how examining endings demonstrates that epidemics are not solely medical phenomena, but are also fundamentally political and social.
