Epidemics That Didn't Happen: Launch Event at the 2026 World Health Assembly
Join us in person for breakfast on Monday, May 18
Resolve to Save Lives, the 7-1-7 Alliance, the Gates Foundation and the Pandemic Fund invite you to the launch of Epidemics That Didn't Happen—our flagship report on the power of epidemic preparedness.

Too often, the most significant outcomes in global health go unrecognized: the pathogen identified in time to trigger a rapid response, the outbreak contained before it could escalate, the health system that performed as intended when it mattered most. This breakfast side event offers a compelling, evidence-based look at what happens when investment in preparedness works.

Epidemics That Didn't Happen shines a light on those stories using case studies that show how countries are translating preparedness investments into measurable impact. Join us for the screening of a short film bringing case studies to life followed by a moderated panel featuring health system leaders, including representatives from countries in the report.

Whether you're a global health leader, a ministry of health official or a preparedness financing decision-maker, this is a rare opportunity to engage with positive evidence, connect with senior peers and leave with concrete examples of what targeted investment in preparedness can achieve.

Breakfast will be served at 7:30 AM and the event will begin at 8:00 AM.
