Well, no one country could do this alone. No one country could do this alone because the notion that a pandemic or an epidemic is going to start in some faraway country is a false sense of security. I mean, look at the 2009 flu pandemic, which began in North America. COVID, we don't know the complete origins of COVID, but the first cases were identified in China.

We have outbreaks of Marburg and of Ebola in different countries across Africa. We have MPOCs that's, you know, in the DRC, but also spreading through international travel. These pathogens don't respect border, and we need a collective response, collective engagement to fight these threats. No one country can do it alone.

No one country has the capacity to deal with these types of threats because they cross borders, because we live in this massively interconnected world, and also because of the geopolitics and the things that we're seeing. You know, surveillance is so critical. But no country wants to find the next pandemic virus. Nobody wants that blame.

But in fact, the earlier you can detect something, the earlier you can react. If you're actually working on prevention and building those capacities, sustaining those capacities, many of which were massively improved during COVID, you have a better chance of actually

preventing that spillover event or that breach in, you know, turning into infecting humans to turn into an outbreak, to turn into an epidemic, to turn into a pandemic. The earlier you can do that and collectively working together. You know, my experience with WHO has been in outbreak investigations, mainly in the Middle East for MERS, but in Asia as well, in Africa as well.

And we show up, we're invited by countries. We show up at the worst possible moment a country is dealing with an outbreak. to help them bring it under control. And that is just support. It's not placing blame. It's not saying something is wrong. It's just bringing people, you know, to use your best minds to say, okay, where are we in the outbreak? How do we bring it under control?
