The Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) is supporting a science-based response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
Our role
We’re working to ensure that decision-makers follow the best available science and listen to the guidance and recommendations of government scientists and public health experts.
We’re fighting for a fair and just response to the pandemic, including a more equitable rollout of COVID-19 vaccines, and pushing to create a more just and equitable post-pandemic world.
Together with our supporters, we're doing everything we can to help reduce COVID-19 sickness, death, and disruption—and make a meaningful difference in these most difficult of times.
