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年对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，但仍存在差距。我们目前还没有最终的研究方案来收集大流行中早期发现的病例和家庭接触者的证据，这些信息是有针对性的公共卫生应对措施所需的信息。我们将在政府和环境之间开展工作，为所有澳大利亚人测试这些研究方案并提供建议。

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.
