Known and Unknown Transboundary Infectious Diseases as Hybrid Threats

Abstract: The pathogenicity, transmissibility, environmental stability, and potential for genetic manipulation make microbes hybrid threats that could blur the distinction between peace and war. These agents can fall below the detection, attribution, and response capabilities of a nation and seriously affect their health, trade, and security. A framework that could enhance horizon scanning regarding the potential risk of microbes used as hybrid threats requires not only accurately discriminating known and unknown pathog… Show more

“…For example, artificial intelligence algorithms could gather, integrate, analyze, and visualize vast amounts of data from multiple unrelated sources supporting autonomous surveillance systems. 97 , 98 However, key challenges that hinder data integration include how to effectively combine and analyze heterogeneous data collected by different sources and measured at different biological, spatial, and temporal scales; how to ensure data standardization and quality; how to maximize the opportunities of open data and the need for transparency, whilst balancing concerns for data security, sovereignty, and ethics. Overcoming these challenges to leverage data from multiple sources under a One Biosecurity approach will provide a more holistic view of human, animal, plant, and ecosystem health and maximize the collective impact of data.…”
