I will start by addressing this question to Dr. Barrett.
Looking at the recent pandemics, COVID started in Wuhan; HIV/AIDS—I think that would be classified as a pandemic—started, we believe, in Africa; and H1N1 started in China or Mexico, but I'm not sure whether we know that for sure. Of the other outbreaks that we worried could become pandemics, MERS was in the Middle East, Ebola was in West Africa and SARS was in Guangdong, China.
In looking at how we can better prepare to prevent future pandemics, would you agree that we need to be better globally at detecting outbreaks of disease in poor countries early on and responding to them more quickly, before they become pandemics?
