Description:The COVID-19 pandemic – like HIV/AIDS, Ebola viral disease, Zika, and other outbreaks in recent years – has demonstrated the catastrophic impacts that infectious disease outbreaks and other health threats can have on health, the economy, and society. These impacts can be felt by Americans and populations worldwide regardless of the point of origin of the outbreak. Investments in global health security capacity – the ability to prevent, detect, and rapidly respond to new and emerging infectious disease outbreaks – help mitigate these costs and protect the lives and livelihoods of American citizens and people everywhere.
The U.S. government improves global health security by strengthening partner countries’ capacities to prevent, detect, and respond to outbreaks to contain them at their source, before they can become greater public health threats. The United States has made a specific commitment to assist 50 countries, and use catalytic leadership to increase capacity in 50 more, to achieve demonstrated capacity in at least five technical areas of health security. The technical areas include establishing or strengthening vital capacities such as laboratory systems, disease surveillance, risk communication and community engagement, and biosafety and biosecurity. To achieve measurable results requires dedicated resources, sustained high-level political attention, robust community engagement, a multi-sectoral approach, and transparency and accountability. Sustainable impact also requires the United States to work collaboratively and measure progress cohesively across our global health security programs and with those of our partners around the world.
