Covid-19: a pandemic that calls everything into question

Confinement, curfews, activity restrictions, telecommuting, childcare... The appearance and installation of Covid-19 in our lives has necessitated adaptations, generated transitions and provoked profound changes. The social impacts are numerous and multi-faceted, and some are likely to be long-lasting.
