Though we are all living in the most challenging of moments, I am hopeful about our journey at Horizons’, standing on our pillars of listening, innovating and creating to save lives. As we have all been reading, secondary diseases from COVID-19 affect not only the pulmonary system but the gastrointestinal organs amongst others. Staying true to our ever-present commitment to help save lives, has us at HIC, thinking what can we uniquely contribute to COVID-19, in a simple and easily accessible manner? As with other moments in our history, when we set our eyes on the target, we raise ourselves to contribute to the challenges we are facing. This time together as a world in need of innovation, compassion and solidarity.
