Piloting, Implementing and Evaluating First Few Hundred Protocols in the Australian Context

世界卫生组织将大流行性流感确定为2019年人类健康的十大威胁之一。澳大利亚在备灾规划方面进行了广泛投资，但差距仍然存在。我们目前还没有最终确定的研究方案，从大流行中早期发现的病例和家庭接触者中收集证据，这些信息需要为有针对性的公共卫生应对提供信息。我们将与政府和机构合作，为所有澳大利亚人测试和建议这些研究方案。

The World Health Organisation identifies pandemic influenza as one of ten top threats to human health in 2019. Australia has invested extensively in preparedness planning, but gaps remain. We do not presently have finalised study protocols to collect evidence from early identified cases and household contacts in a pandemic, information needed to inform targeted public health responses. We will work across governments and settings to test and advise on these study protocols for all Australians.
