International Treaty on Global Pandemics to Face Future Pandemics

Abstract

The problems and challenges confronting the global governance of international public health are on the rise, emphasizing the critical need for stronger international collaboration and resource-sharing to combat health threats. The COVID-19 pandemic unveiled signifi gaps in the worldwide health care system in terms of preparedness and response mechanisms. It highlighted the inadequacies of international collaboration and the urgent need for a comprehensive pandemic treaty. This paper explores the reasons behind the stalled progress of a pandemic treaty and emphasises the necessity of establishing equitable guidelines to safeguard against future pandemics. To face the regular frequency of these dangers and adverse effects, countries must work together more closely to accelerate global research by sharing the data and necessary raw materials and creating a coordinated global response. This acts as a road map to recover from the pandemic and allows for timely interventions and better tracking of the disease's spread.
