MCI guest lecturer Dr. med. univ. Martin Sprenger answered the bachelor students of the Nonprofit, Social & Health Management program the most burning questions on current developments regarding the novel coronavirus in short lectures followed by discussions.

Martin Sprenger is a physician and epidemiologist at the Medical University of Graz and is currently advising the government on the Corona crisis. In his lectures he shows the chances and also the still manageable risks of current strategies against COVID19 in Austria. He himself describes the current challenge as completely new territory, which we are entering with a lot of uncertainty. His "look into the crystal ball" sparks optimism for the coming weeks. On the other hand, Martin Sprenger's discussion with students and guests in the ONLINE discussion at Management Center Innsbruck shows that we all have to keep and further develop the measures we have now taken with great sensitivity in order to come out of the crisis physically and mentally healthy.
