The rise of infectious diseases is being accelerated by climate change and transformations in global health. We need to implement innovative health security solutions for a safer planet through early detection of potential global diseases. The ability to detect and analyze potential risks stemming from any region in the world is critical to accurately foresee, plan, and respond to pandemics.
This series with SICPA explores how the world can best prepare for the next pandemic and help predict and project scenarios and potential consequences of actions linked to any decision making. We’ll look into how merging physical and digital solutions can be used to tackle and track pandemics, as well as how best to address issues that connect the cross-disciplinary aspects of human, animal, and environmental factors within global health.
