Pandemics in a changing climate - Evolving risk and the global response
Pandemic outbreaks can be economically devastating for the affected
countries, overwhelming public finances and reversing hard-won
development gains. The immediate economic disruption resulting
from loss of life and suspended productivity can translate into lasting
impediments to growth. In the current system, response mechanisms
are much too slow, particularly in delivering financing to responsible
counterparties. In addition, the effects of climate change will increase
the inherent risk of pandemic outbreaks by changing environments
and disease transmission vectors, heightening uncertainty as to the
location, type and severity of the next outbreak.
