Integrated Biodefense

Integrated Biodefense refers to a comprehensive approach to preventing, detecting, and responding to biological threats—whether they're naturally occurring diseases or deliberate biological attacks. It combines efforts across government agencies, healthcare, research, and security to coordinate activities such as surveillance, diagnostics, vaccination, and emergency response. This system aims to identify threats early, contain outbreaks quickly, and minimize their impact on public health and safety by using interconnected strategies and information sharing. Essentially, it's about uniting resources and expertise to protect populations from biological dangers effectively.
