"History tells us that it is likely the next big outbreak will be something we have not seen before. It may seem strange to be adding an X but the point is to make sure we prepare and plan flexibly in terms of vaccines and diagnostic tests. We want to see plug and play platforms developed which will work for any, or a wide number of diseases; systems that will allow us to create countermeasures at speed. [...] As the ecosystem and human habitats change there is always the risk of disease jumping from animals to humans. It’s a natural process and it is vital that we are aware and prepare. It is probably the greatest risk."
