US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken announced that the United States of America (USA) has launched its National Biodefense Strategy, which lays out a road map to help adopt the plan and protect against future biological threats, whether they occur naturally, accidentally, or originally intended.
"The strategy sets out a bold vision by transforming the federal government's ability to prevent, detect, prepare for, respond to, and recover from disease, along with our partners — including our international partners," Blinken added in a statement.
He continued to say that infectious diseases that cross borders and disrupt societies pose a threat to national security and global stability.
He indicated that over the past two years, the world has seen the impact of diseases like COVID-19 across America and around the globe, which have led to millions of deaths and billions of dollars in economic losses globally
