Félicitations à vous Serge Bataliack et à toute l'équipe pour cette pertinente publication.
Very interesting thank you for this brief. I would love to hear more about the recommended strategies to adopt this call to action and turn these pages into functional regulatory frameworks that enable our countries to advance together, in a way that allows regulated and sovereign health data monitoring in real time. Emerging infectious illnesses are clearly not waiting for regulation or optimized data sharing.
