Delivering a vaccine in 100 days against the next Disease X would give the world a fighting chance to extinguish the existential threat of a future pandemic virus.
Dr Richard Hatchett, CEO of CEPI, explains how this 100 Days Mission can be achieved.
CEPI wants to galvanise the development of new vaccines against diseases we know could cause the next devastating epidemic.
The estimated annual global cost of moderately severe to severe pandemics
The number of diseases WHO identified as public health risks due to epidemic potential and lack of biomedical countermeasures
The minimum average cost for progressing one vaccine against each of WHO’s 11 priority epidemic infectious diseases
CEPI (pronounced 'seppy') aims to accelerate the development of vaccines against emerging infectious diseases and enable access to these vaccines for people during outbreaks.
