After more than three years of negotiations, member states of the World Health Organization (WHO) recently took an important step forward, making the world safer than epidemics by drafting a draft agreement to consider it in the upcoming World Health Society in May 2025.
It was announced on April 16, 2025, this proposal aims to enhance global cooperation on prevention, preparation and response to the threats of the Bental disease.
The proposals in the text include the establishment of a system of access to pathogens and interest sharing; Take tangible measures to prevent the epidemic, including through one healthy approach; Building research and development capabilities geographically diverse; Facilitate the transfer of technology, knowledge, skills and relevant expertise to produce health -related health products; Mobilization of the workforce in cases of national, global, trained and multidisciplinary emergencies; Create a coordination financial mechanism; Take concrete measures to enhance readiness, readiness, health and flexibility system; And the creation of the global supply chain and the logistical network.
Moreover, the proposal confirms the sovereignty of countries to address public health issues within their borders. It does not stipulate that nothing may be interpreted in the draft agreement as granting the World Health Organization any authority to direct, change, change, or describe national laws or policies, or delegate countries to take specific measures, such as the prohibition or acceptance of travelers, and to impose delegations for vaccination or treatment or diagnostic measures, or the implementation of covers.
“The countries of the world have made history in Geneva today,” said Dr. Tedros Adihanum Gryberzos, who is in a media statement.
“When you reach a consensus on the epidemic agreement, it is not only the development of generations' agreement to make the world safer, they have also proven that pluralism is alive and in good health, and that in our divided world, countries are still working together to find a common ground, and the common response to common threats.”
Although the United States is not a party to this proposal, US health agencies previously developed their X X.
According to WhO, the disease X represents the knowledge that the dangerous international epidemic can be caused by diseases currently unknown to cause a human disease, probably the RNA, Richard Hachtit, CEO of the coalition for innovations of the epidemic (CEPI).
CEPI Plan 3.5 billion dollars, 5 years later a road map to compress the timelines for the development of the vaccine to 100 days.
“The pressure of vaccine development against emerging pathogens up to 100 days will be very important to combat future epidemic threats,” said Dr. Jacob Kramer, director of clinical development at CEPI.
The US government's policy for controlling dual research and causes was updated with the enhanced potential of the epidemic on May 6, 2024. This policy deals with supervising research on biological factors and toxins that, when enhancing it, can pose risks to public health.
In addition, the National Institutes of American Diseases and Infectious Diseases have developed a plan to prepare for the epidemic to prepare for future general health emergencies caused by infectious diseases. While it is recognized that other pathogens other than viruses can lead to general health emergencies, the preparation for raw epidemic focuses on viruses that can cause epidemics or epidemics.
As of April 2025, the new US administration has not announced updates of old diseases plans.
