New Vision
A documented reversal of resurgent diseases in developed countries, and a dramatic increase in the quality of health care in the emerging nations.

Specific Initiatives
  • Enhance capabilities and responsiveness of existing institutions by developing a single responsive crisis task force with a new charter and rules of engagement
  • Establish preset scenarios allowing the CDC (or WHO) the right to enter a country to address a health crisis
  • Create specific opportunities to reduce spread of disease by providing funds to vaccinate individuals, provide poor hospitals with sterile equipment, and train doctors in proven low-cost disease management technologies
  • Increase limitations on cross-border movement of untested livestock
  • Reduce storage of toxic chemicals and biological weapons in G24 countries
  • Impose severe penalties on countries who propose or continue the development of biological or chemical warfare products
  • Increase funding to hospitals in emerging markets -- public and private -- to eradicate unsanitary procedures
  • Promote acceptance of condoms as part of a global healthy lifestyle
  • Accelerate program development for cheaper AIDS and TB treatments
  • Structure drug manufacturing and distribution accords with emerging countries to make expensive treatment affordable
  • Control and treat sex industry workers for AIDS and other sexually transmitted disease
  • Establish a Global Health Council to set priorities on suppression of diseases and coordinate public and private sector initiatives
