What are Some Successful Examples of Partnerships in Epidemiology?
One notable example is the Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI), which is a partnership between the World Health Organization (WHO), Rotary International, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF). This collaboration has significantly reduced the incidence of polio worldwide. Another example is the Global Influenza Surveillance and Response System (GISRS), which involves laboratories and public health institutions globally to monitor and respond to influenza outbreaks.
