How do we know?
Because we’ve been there, we’ve studied outbreaks, and we literally wrote a book on it.
Our expert team of infectious disease clinical research specialists have studied outbreaks such as H5N1, HIV, Zika and Ebola. Written by these industry veterans, this e-book includes eight key points based on lessons learned from the front lines. A few include:
- Education and communication reduce fear and panic in an outbreak
- To fight an outbreak, borders must be dissolved, and countries need to act as a global community
- Preparedness of health care systems and qualified research networks are essential
