Influenza viruses, both seasonal and pandemic, have the potential
to disrupt the health and well-being of populations around the
world. The global response to the COVID-19 pandemic and prior
public health emergencies of international concern illustrate the
importance of global preparedness and coordination among
governments, academia, scientists, policy makers, nongovernmental
organizations, the private sector, and the public to address the
threat of pandemic influenza. These health emergencies have
revealed opportunities to enhance global vaccine infrastructure,
manufacturing, distribution, and administration. Globally Resilient
Supply Chains for Seasonal and Pandemic Influenza Vaccines outlines
key findings and recommendations to bolster vaccine distribution,
manufacturing, and supply chains for future seasonal and pandemic
influenza events. This report addresses the challenges of
manufacturing and distributing vaccines for both seasonal and
pandemic influenza, highlighting the critical components of vaccine
manufacturing and distribution and offering recommendations that
would address gaps in the current global vaccine infrastructure.

To take stock of lessons learned from COVID-19 around the world and
in the United States, the Forum on Microbial Threats held two
virtual workshops during 2021. The first workshop focused on what
it means to frame the response to COVID-19 through a "syndemic"
approach, and what the implications would be for global recovery.
The second workshop focused more broadly on key lessons and
emerging data from ongoing pandemic response efforts that can be
incorporated into current health systems to improve resilience and
preparedness for future outbreaks. This workshop explored the
long-term effects of COVID-19 on health equity, including
considerations for mental health and social determinants of health.
It also addressed uncertainties during a pandemic, such as trust,
communication, and engagement and explored approaches to
systematize recovery efforts to improve the ongoing responses and
prepare for the next pandemic. Experts discussed possibilities for
a post-pandemic world and a response strategy for stakeholders that
ensures sustained community partnerships and prioritization of
health equity. This Proceedings of a Workshop summarizes the
presentations and discussions from the second workshop. Table of
