Quatrième de couverture : "À la fin du XXe siècle, de nombreuses crises de nature épidémique se sont enchaînées. La sécurité sanitaire est devenue un enjeu international réclamant une approche mondiale. L’épidémie de sida avait sonné l’alerte au début des années 1980. À la suite de la maladie de la vache folle au début des années 1990, puis de l’épidémie liée au SRAS et des attaques bioterroristes au début des années 2000, le risque infectieux épidémique a semblé prendre une allure de plus en plus inquiétante. Le Pr Didier Houssin a été au cœur de cet enchaînement, en particulier au moment de l’épidémie de chikungunya à La Réunion, de la grippe aviaire, puis de la pandémie grippale de 2009. Soucieux d’en tirer les leçons pour la sécurité future des populations, il en retrace ici les temps forts et dresse le bilan des réponses qui ont été apportées. La pandémie de 2009, marquée par une bonne dose de chance pour l’espèce humaine, ne doit pas susciter l’inaction et ainsi se transformer en piège. Elle doit, au contraire, être l’occasion de prolonger l’effort de préparation, dans l’éventualité d’un phénomène épidémique plus grave. Comme professeur de chirurgie à l’université Paris-Descartes, comme chirurgien et chef de service à l’hôpital Cochin, Didier Houssin a contribué au développement de la greffe du foie, en particulier chez l’enfant. Il a ensuite dirigé l’Établissement français des greffes, a été directeur de la politique médicale de l’Assistance publique-Hôpitaux de Paris, puis directeur général de la Santé de 2005 à 2011. Il est aujourd’hui conseiller de l’Organisation mondiale de la santé."

The global response to the Covid-19 pandemic is the greatest science policy failure in a generation. We knew this was coming. Warnings about the threat of a new pandemic have been made repeatedly since the 1980s and it was clear in January that a dangerous new virus was causing a devastating human tragedy in China. And yet the world ignored the warnings. Why? In this short and hard-hitting book, Richard Horton, editor of the medical journal The Lancet, scrutinizes the actions that governments around the world took - and failed to take - as the virus spread from its origins in Wuhan to the global pandemic that it is today. He shows that many Western governments and their scientific advisors made assumptions about the virus and its lethality that turned out to be mistaken. Valuable time was lost while the virus spread unchecked, leaving health systems unprepared for the avalanche of infections that followed. Drawing on his own scientific and medical expertise, Horton outlines the measures that need to be put in place, at both national and international levels, to prevent this kind of catastrophe from happening again. We're supposed to be living in an era where human beings have become the dominant influence on the environment, but Covid-19 has revealed the fragility of our societies and the speed with which our systems can come crashing down. We need to learn the lessons of this pandemic and we need to learn them fast because the next pandemic may arrive sooner than we think.

Influenza pandemics are unpredictable but recurring events that can have severe consequences on societies worldwide. This revised WHO guidance publication on pandemic influenza preparedness and response has been developed to guide WHO Member States and others responsible for public health and pandemic influenza preparedness activities at the national level. It is the product of expert opinion, derived from several international consultations which included examination of available information and modeling studies, input from public health experts on lessons learned from SARS and both animal an
