World leaders and the World Health Organization are proposing a new international treaty for pandemic preparedness and response in light of the covid-19 pandemic. The goal is to strengthen global resilience to future pandemics and improve international cooperation. Drafting of the agreement is ongoing, with the hope of adopting a legally binding text at the World Health Assembly. The proposed treaty aims to better coordinate responses to health emergencies and ensure timely and equitable access to vaccines, medicines, and other essential resources during future pandemics.
