Twenty years after his death, Dr. Carlo Urbani is not just the symbol of the fight against SARS. Urbani is the testimony of how courage and dedication, even at the cost of one’s life, can become an example for everyone. A brave doctor, discoverer, and a victim himself of the “severe acute respiratory syndrome.” His death represented a serious loss for the scientific community, but his work, his discoveries, and his international treatment protocol, not only have saved thousands of patients, but have continued to inspire research and development of vaccines for many diseases. A symbol of self-sacrifice and scientific rigour recognised by the medical community, whose protocol was the inspiration in dealing with the coronavirus pandemic. His legacy, like his altruism, remain vivid in our memory.
—Sergio Mattarella,
President of Italy
Dr. Carlo Urbani practiced the teachings of Lord Jesus Christ “to love God and love your neighbor,” which made himself a legend of a devout Christian. He further inspired many to serve those who were suffering from illness, poverty, grief, and hunger. This chain of love confirms the gospel of John: “Unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains just a grain of wheat; but if it dies, it produces much fruit. Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will preserve it for eternal life.” (John 12:24–25)
—Dr. Chen Chien-Jen (陳建仁),
President of the Executive Yuan of Taiwan
