Abstract
There is a vital need to rethink human centric health resilience beyond borders.
Inequities are being perpetuated and accentuated in the development and distribution
of COVID-19 vaccines. Inequalities – economic and health related – within and
between countries are again increasing. Although complex, necessary policy change
for building a resilient human and health security centric global health system
demands:
• A new definition of global health security;1
• A new perspective and policy paradigm pivoting from individual public health to
global health security; based on:
• First and foremost, equitable access to vaccines, diagnostics and therapeutics to
infectious as well as chronic diseases – also anticipating the next pandemic;
• Second, comprehensive and coordinated national and regional universal health
care and health care coverage.
The EU, and regional blocs such as the AU in Africa, have key roles to play in rethinking
and enacting a renewed global health security for the 21st Century.
