The U.S. should enhance the global capacity for responding to infectious disease threats Promote health abroad, prevent international spread of disease and protect U.S. population Minimize the interruption of world wide travel and trade Why is it important to me? If more countries had better health capacities, the burden of disease would decrease. The U.S. should use some of our resources to help other countries

7. HOW BAD IS IT? 80% of WHO member states were not able to meet the IHR capacity requirement in 2012 (U.S. DHHS) Gaps in health research in low and middle income countries Still in the early stages of how to identify, target, and affect factors that are important for building health capacities We have the technology to track disease, but we have not started tracking what can help prevent or control disease Bad enough.

9. GLOBAL CAPACITY MAPPING Project Surveillance Information System Works in conjunction with a GIS application in communicable and non communicable diseases The map will have real-time data that tracks Health Capacity Inventory Will require ratification from WHO member states and a revision to the International Health Regulations New information system that can change e-health

10. GLOBAL CAPACITY MAPPING Project Capacity Inventory to be tracked Disease Detection Regional Centers Health Professionals in the DDCs Tests per DDC Epidemiological focus on a global scale Interested in applying epi methods to track the health indicators that influence health outcomes (tracking capacity inventory) Interested in using data from the mapping system to respond to regional health issues Features a global needs assessment for monitoring and surveillance purposes
