Pandemic threats did not begin, nor will they end, with COVID-19. How can the world prevent another such disaster from happening?
“If we’re really going to prevent the next pandemic,” states eminent vaccinologist Peter Hotez, Dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor University, “[we’re] going to have to put equity front and center. That means empowering the LMICs from the beginning, not as an afterthought.” Opening the second season of our documentary series, Hotez and a cast of global health experts describe how the world can build an effective system for pandemic preparedness and response that can avert future catastrophes while strengthening health and economic security for all.
