“To survive new century of contagions, world needs Global Health Security Council, a public-private partnership empowered, funded, & accountable to ensure global pandemic preparedness and response” writes @drjeromekim1. @TheIndPanel reached same conclusion statnews.com/2023/01/11/4-g…
2. @drjeromekim1 continues: “Akin to UN Security Council, but without obstructing veto power, a Global Health Threats Council could direct an expandable secretariat to create & empower a #Pandemic Response Task Force as needed.” This proposal addresses current leadership gap.
3. “In absence of a #pandemic, #GHTC would plan exercises and training specific to anticipated requirements.
It would need to be placed within an organization that would allow countries, philanthropies, & nongovernmental organizations to have a place at the table”: @drjeromekim1

4. “This stakeholders’ council (Global Health Threats Council) would need to address the inequities — in diagnostics, research and development funding, vaccine manufacturing, vaccine supply, & vaccination — that hobbled global efforts during the #COVID19 #pandemic.” @drjeromekim1
5. “The question isn’t whether this can be figured out before the next global contagion arrives. Instead, the question is: How many contagions will it take before world finally stops tolerating preventable deaths on a massive scale?” A very good question @drjeromekim1. #COVID19
