Abstract

Infectious diseases are never only biological in their nature, course or impact but are directly linked to our sociocultural systems (1). How the sociocultural needs of the heterogeneous groups that constitute Belgium are addressed will therefore be decisive for the effectiveness of continuous COVID-19 control. Just as decisive will be generating the understanding that we cannot return to where we came from when we go back to ‘normalcy’.
