    NEW AFRICA BUSINESS NEWS (NABN) Freetown, Sierra Leone – A statement disclosed by the World Trade Organization (WTO) has asserted leveraging trade to enhance pandemic defenses needs cooperation beyond trade consensuses.

    The Multilateral Leaders Task Force on COVID-19 Vaccines, Therapeutics, and Diagnostics—set up by the World Bank and the WTO in cooperation with World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Monetary Fund
    (IMF) has summoned the international community to amp up its reaction to the existing and coming pandemics, the report asserted. These are actions to bolster partnership between states, non-state actors, and international
    organizations.

    The initial objective should be to establish mechanisms as way to subsidize access to vital products such as vaccines in low-income nations and broaden supply and measurement capacity during a crisis and ensure that these facilities do not disappear when demand declines.

    This effort would include cooperation to build manufacturing facilities in low and middle-income countries with a latent comparative advantage whose relatively small populations reduce the risk that the host-the country will intervene to meet domestic needs and the impact of potential intervention.

    “A second goal potential mechanism is by sharing information on the operation of supply chains. A priority should be to establish a global clearinghouse to support the production of critical medical products and serve as a platform for companies to report bottlenecks, improve visibility on production capacity and distribution, and identify measures to respond to the pandemic,” it stated.

    On complicity amongst international organizations, it explained actions to consolidate alliance should be on communicating the information and coordination spaces disclosed by the pandemic, such as by bolstering international standardization; strengthening the capacity of national regulatory agencies; developing good-practice policy frameworks for public procurement during crises; and Working with the private sector to encourage technology transfer and expand global emergency response capacity.

    Current Outbreak of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Disease- Coronavirus advisory information, World Health Organization & United States, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

    Coronaviruses (CoV) are a large family of viruses that cause illness ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV). A novel coronavirus (nCoV) is a new strain that has not been previously identified in humans.

    Coronaviruses are zoonotic, meaning they are transmitted between animals and people.  Detailed investigations found that SARS-CoV was transmitted from civet cats to humans and MERS-CoV from dromedary camels to humans. Several known coronaviruses are circulating in animals that have not yet infected humans.

    Common signs of infection include respiratory symptoms, fever, cough, shortness of breath and breathing difficulties. In more severe cases, infection can cause pneumonia, severe acute respiratory syndrome, kidney failure and even death.

    Standard recommendations to prevent infection spread include regular hand washing, covering mouth and nose when coughing and sneezing, thoroughly cooking meat and eggs. Avoid close contact with anyone showing symptoms of respiratory illness such as coughing and sneezing. Source- WHO
