Description
This session will explore the progress made in the past four years to improve the United States' ability to handle global health threats. We will focus on the importance of surveillance in detecting, preventing, and rapidly responding to health issues. The session will examine where our focus should be moving forward, including the development and distribution of protective gear, the resilience of supply chains, and the enhancement of critical infrastructure. Moderators and health security experts will join our panel to share what advancements they are most proud of, and identify the biggest hurdles in protecting the United States.
