Greater human mobility, largely driven by air travel, is leading to an increase in the frequency and reach of infectious disease epidemics. Air travel can rapidly connect any two points on the planet, and this has the potential to cause swift and broad dissemination of emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases that may pose a threat to global health security. Investments to strengthen surveillance, build robust early-warning systems, improve predictive models, and coordinate public health responses may help to prevent, detect, and respond to new infectious disease epidemics. The volume of global air travel continues to increase annually, and passengers have the capacity to introduce infections to new regions in short time frames. Infections transported through air travel may initiate or facilitate epidemics. Front-line healthcare providers and public health teams require training and tools to properly identify and respond to infectious diseases transported through air travel, some of which may have epidemic potential. Developing more effective global surveillance tools and mechanisms to better communicate and coordinate between countries can facilitate more rapid and effective responses to epidemics.
