Larry Brilliant quiere detener las pandemias

Al aceptar el premio TED del 2006, el Dr. Larry Brilliant habla acerca de cómo se erradicó del planeta la viruela y hace un llamamiento por un nuevo sistema global que pueda identificar y contener pandemias antes de que se extiendan.

Eradicating smallpox required finding every case quickly and containing it before it could spread. In India, health workers made over one billion house calls, proving that human effort and surveillance can outsmart even the most devastating diseases. The same approach—early detection and rapid response—can stop new epidemics and save millions of lives. Building a global, accessible early-warning system is essential to catch threats before they spiral out of control.
