** $2.70
------------------------------------------------------------

Fixing U.S. infrastructure is a national security imperative. It also has an enormous economic potential, as the U.S. economy would grow by $2.70 for every dollar spent on revitalizing infrastructure.

** $400 million
------------------------------------------------------------

Congress is increasingly supportive of CO2 removal from the atmosphere as a means to combat climate change—recently appropriating $400 million to R&D for technology over the next five years.

** 2%
------------------------------------------------------------

While U.S.-India trade has been growing steadily at an average of more than 12 percent each year until the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, it still constitutes a mere 2 percent of total U.S. international trade.

** 70%
------------------------------------------------------------

Just as the pandemic shook the world, it has had deadly effects across Syria. However, its impact must also be seen in the context of a decade of health crises and a destroyed health system where over 70 percent of health workers have fled the country.

SOURCE: "Covid-19: Compounding 10 Years of Health Crises in Syria" as part of the CSIS Humanitarian Agenda's The Path Forward series.
