Here We Go Again? It’s Time for the NEXT PANDEMIC Exercise, Says GPMD Co-Chair Joy Phumaphi
“We ... suggest that member states, together with other key stakeholders, carry out a simulation exercise based on the draft Accord and the draft IHR (International Health Regulations) amendments later this year before they are finalized and adopted,” urged GPMD Co-Chair Joy Phumaphi.
“A simulation exercise beforehand and robust monitoring and accountability following their adoption are two ways you can ensure these important instruments fulfill their potential and that we are ready for the next pandemic.”
