Collective AmnesiaCEPI Public Health16h agoSeptember 21, 2026

Health Leaders Warn Against Post-Pandemic Amnesia That Could Leave World Unprepared

Multiple panelists warned that the scale of collective amnesia since COVID-19 threatens to repeat the cycle of panic during emergencies and neglect between them.

Why it matters: PAHO's Ugarte revealed that few countries conducted independent evaluations of their COVID-19 response, meaning hard-won lessons risk being lost before the next pandemic hits.

GAVI's CEO explained how stockpiles, the First Response Fund, and advanced market commitments coordinate with CEPI to get vaccines deployed rapidly during emerging outbreaks.

African Leaders Push for Shift from Vaccine Recipient to Producer and Research Partner

Ethiopia, Senegal, and the Gates Foundation emphasized the need for African countries to develop domestic research, manufacturing, and regulatory capacity rather than depend on external supply chains.

Why it matters: Africa's structural dependency on imported vaccines and medical countermeasures left the continent critically exposed during COVID-19; building local production capacity is framed as both a national security and global health security imperative.

Norway and the United Kingdom each announced major funding commitments to CEPI 3.0, providing significant early momentum toward the organization's $2.5 billion replenishment target.

Why it matters: These pledges represent the first publicly announced sovereign contributions to CEPI 3.0 and are critical to sustaining the 100-day mission for rapid vaccine development against future pandemics.

Leaders Debate How to Sustain Pandemic Preparedness Partnerships Amid Budget Cuts and Declining Trust

Panelists discussed strategies to maintain multilateral health partnerships despite tightening budgets, geopolitical multipolarity, and growing vaccine hesitancy.

Why it matters: With development budgets shrinking and public trust in institutions eroding, the sustainability of pandemic preparedness coalitions is at serious risk — precisely when emerging threats are accelerating.
