The Global Health Security

In partnership with ministries, departments and agencies,  international organizations, and public and private stakeholders, Biolabs Red Services seeks to accelerate progress toward a continent safe and secure from infectious disease threats and to promote global health security as an international security priority, to

  1. Prevent and reduce the likelihood of outbreaks – natural, accidental, or intentional;
  2. Detect threats early to save lives;
  3. Respond rapidly and effectively using multi-sectorial, international coordination and communication

Biolabs Red Services is set to work with partner countries and subnational entities on nine specific objectives to prevent, detect, and effectively respond to infectious disease threats:

Prevent

  1. Prevent the emergence and spread of antimicrobial drug-resistant organisms and emerging zoonotic diseases, and strengthen international regulatory frameworks governing food safety.
  2. Promote national biosafety and biosecurity systems.
  3. Reduce the number and magnitude of infectious disease outbreaks.

Detect

    1. Launch, strengthen and link global, national and subnational networks for real-time biosurveillance.
    2. Strengthen the global, national and subnational norm of rapid, transparent reporting and sample sharing.
    3. Develop and deploy novel diagnostics and strengthen laboratory systems.
    4. Train and deploy an effective biosurveillance workforce.

Respond

    1. Develop an interconnected global, national and subnational network of Emergency Operations Centers and multi-sectoral response to biological incidents.
    2. Improve global, national and subnational access to medical and non-medical countermeasures during health emergencies.
