Biodefense and Emerging Infections

Biodefense and Emerging Infections refer to the strategies and measures taken to protect against new and re-emerging infectious diseases that can pose significant threats to public health. This includes monitoring diseases, researching their origins, and developing vaccines and treatments. Biodefense also involves preparedness for potential biological attacks, ensuring that systems are in place to respond quickly to outbreaks. The goal is to safeguard communities from both natural and deliberate biological threats, enhancing overall health security and resilience against infectious diseases.
