“A test is the first thing you need in an outbreak. Without diagnostics, every other part of the response is flying blind. Diagnostics has always been the poor relation in pandemic preparedness, and this outbreak is showing us the consequences in real time.” 1/3

This PHEIC declaration, coming on the eve of the 79th World Health Assembly (#WHA79) in Geneva, is a stark reminder that pandemic preparedness must remain at the centre of global health policy. 6/7

Today is #WorldHealthDay, and this year's theme, "Together for health. Stand with science", gets to the heart of why CEPI exists. Science is our greatest tool against epidemic and pandemic threats, but science alone isn't enough. It requires global collaboration to ensure that the fruits of scientific innovation reach everyone, everywhere. That’s why CEPI is working with partners worldwide to strengthen the capabilities needed to respond faster and more equitably, from advancing vaccine R&D to boosting global manufacturing, regulatory, and clinical trial readiness. And at the centre of this effort is CEPI's 100 Days Mission: a goal to develop safe, effective vaccines within 100 days of identifying a new threat. CEPI 3.0 will now turn this ambition into an operational reality, and doing so requires that exact combination – science and collaboration. Together, these powerful drivers will help to secure the future against the threat of epidemics and pandemics. Learn more about CEPI 3.0: cepi.net/securing-the-future

Last week in Paris, our CEO Dr @IfedayoTiffy joined global health leaders at the launch of the 5th @IPPSecretariat Annual Report to discuss progress on the 100 Days Mission. On the sidelines of the launch, he highlighted critical gaps in global preparedness: diagnostics remain the least funded pillar of outbreak response — despite being the foundation of effective action. Achieving the 100 Days Mission for diagnostics is possible, but only if we invest now in innovative R&D, flexible platform technologies, local manufacturing, and stronger health systems — so every test developed can be delivered and used where it matters most.
