TEDMED | Lessons learned to better prepare for and respond to viral outbreaks with Ed Kelley, PhD @TEDMED | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
We’re only going to see more, not fewer, viral outbreaks due to several factors including:

-The end of vaccination programs for diseases that have been eradicated and re-emerge
-Increased connectivity due to global travel
-Pressure on the animal habitat leading to increased animal-human contact

Ed Kelley, PhD, Chief Global Health Officer at Apiject, explores the details of how we’ve responded to the latest 2024 mpox outbreak, where we could enhance our public health measures, and why there’s hope for improved vaccine delivery with innovative technologies in this TEDMED Conversation.
