#GlobalHealth must address 4 tensions: Platitudes vs rigorous overhaul of @who.int; Rejecting vs venerating the βLusaka Agendaβ; Subsidiarity vs hypercentralization; & Coddling vs honesty on debt service.

Quite the earthquake in #globalhealth geopolitics and #financing. The perils of dependence on #foreignaid are clear. Like the man said, "Only when the tide goes out do you discover who has been swimming naked..."

This is a reality check. @who.int should prioritize within its means and curb its appetite for mission creep beyond its comparative advantage in normative/ technical leadership, e.g., seeking to create βWHO Global Pandemic Supply Chain & Logistics Network.β

The U.S. needs to reassure the world it has the outbreak under control.
I am one of 100s of scientists in the the World that is Watching the U.S. Deal With Bird Flu, and Itβs Scary! Today, my opinion piece on the NY Times. Let's hope we take more serious epidemics and pandemics and deal with them before they emerge. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/19/o...
