Experts from the WHO Global Preparedness Monitoring Board and the World Bank have prepared a report that says humanity is on the verge of a devastating pandemic as disease outbreaks become more frequent and more devastating amid global instability.
“As outbreaks of infectious diseases become more frequent, they also become more destructive,” the document quotes. RIA Novosti.
It is emphasized that outbreaks are having an increasingly widespread impact on the health, economic, political and social spheres of countries. At the same time, the possibilities for recovery from them are reduced.
It is emphasized that new initiatives have improved some aspects of outbreak preparedness, but the collapsing situation in the world neutralizes the corresponding steps.
“Overall, these efforts are offset by the growing impact of geopolitical fragmentation, environmental shocks and global travel, especially as development assistance declines to levels not seen since 2009,” the report states.
