Chapter 9 – Preparing for an Epidemic
Here’s a Ted Talk from 2015 by Bill Gates which presents a strikingly (though not surprisingly) prescient look at the ‘next epidemic’. What I like best about this talk are the preparedness ideas he presents. I’ve already shown you how the pharmaceutical industry has been responding to the crisis, and it would be ideal if we could use the current examples to drive useful changes in our epidemic preparedness and response systems. Fun fact – the US already has a Medical Reserve Corps – find out more and learn how to volunteer at their web page.
Reach out to me if you want to know more or discuss your medical product development challenges.
