description OBJECTIVE: To describe the experience of the ASRM COVID-19 Task Force over the past 2 years and to discuss lessons learned during the pandemic that can be applied to future public health crises. DESIGN: Descriptive narrative. SUBJECTS: None. INTERVENTION: Creation of the ASRM COVID-19 Task Force in March 2020. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: None. RESULTS: Effective pandemic management requires a joint effort on the part of physicians, scientists, government agencies, subject area experts and funders. CONCLUSION: Reproduction is a fundamental human right that should be protected at all times. Advanced preparation for future pandemics should include appointment of a standing group of experts so that a response is both informed and immediate when a public health crisis arises. This approach will help ensure that the ultimate objective – preserving the safety and well-being of patients and health care workers – is fulfilled. The recommendations put forth in this paper from the ASRM’s Center for Policy and Leadership can be used as a template to prepare for future public health threats.
