At Our Best

Because our world did not plan properly for endurance, stamina and pandemic fatigue, we should take a few moments to spotlight positive bests. 


Some governance has been at their best during COVID-19, having stepped up to the plate in a big way. 


World economists have remained balanced and rationale in an otherwise turbulent, emotional time.


Here we can pause and reflect on economist continued efforts behind the scenes, at advisory tables, likely repeating insight over and over. They continue to condense language for consumers as well.


When we pause to consider how we function At Our Best, as a world, we can identify economist recommendations for continued trek. This is such great work: http://www.oecd.org/economic-outlook


We should continue to fund and increase funding for OECD analyses of country economies, ask for policy comparison inclusion and use this work for future pandemic/outbreak forecasting. 


We should increase funding for analyses on algorithms that can identify mitigation moves in real time, next time, for economic security. 


Thanks for being a best, economists. Let's create a better future from these painful experiences.

Refugees, migrants and forcibly displaced persons

Continued pandemic management requires improved operations for forcibly displaced persons, migrants and refugees. Better organization for this population will expedite prevention and treatment for people, assist host countries and help prepare for future outbreaks. Organization for refugees, migrants and forcibly displaced persons should include:  * International oversight      R ecommendations and monetary awards for countries managing these populations should be supported with global analyses and follow up   .    Cohesive action should be driven by formal global planning, with experts at the table.    Real time analysis of host country needs and resources for the refugee and forcibly displaced population. If we are aware of the basics, we can improve real time analytics.  * Accountability    World Health Organization situational reports shape questions of accountability to epidemiological and surveillance improvements.

Beyond the Board

Sometimes it takes more than a board of directors to ensure an agency or government is safeguarding our interests. This is particularly true in regulation.  While a country's best interests may not align with international agenda, regulation on behalf of safety and protection is almost always universal. Workarounds to regulation, often allowed of out of self interest or cost, should be tied to international repercussions.  Regulation of food, markets, environmental epidemiology and other early prevention in novel strains make a difference.  Upcoming pandemics and outbreaks can be avoided, or at least better addressed, with better regulation. The international community should gather several policy points, measures and international comparisons. The international health community should observe, encourage and report on countries with and without these policies.  The end of the year COVID-19 WHO report is dynamic and impressive. It is missing policy development and in...

Flow riding

Emergency Medical Team partnerships have been impressive and we should be grateful for international collegiality. The training and development for COVID response can be applied to future infection control during individual transport, outbreaks and other emergencies.    How can we show gratitude as a global group? We can be at the table to help EMT response flow. *Meet, survey and collect information on logistical needs for EMT sustainability in these countries.  *Ask if logistics liaisons for operations coordination would be of use.   *Determine funding needs, policy alignment abilities and credentialing alignment potentials, worldwide. Assertively confront the acronym and credentialing discrepancies. Be direct about the difference in EMT, Technician versus Team . Resolve, fund and manage to move forward together.  *Consider first response systems worldwide, including dispatch and policing networks. Consider separate jurisdiction wherever corruption may fr...
