Subject(s):

Summary: Recent years have seen declines in previous global health gains and increases in vaccine preventable and neglected diseases. Some of this has been exacerbated by war, conflict, poverty, urbanisation, climate change and new anti-science and anti-vaccination (antivax) outlooks. This book proposes vaccine diplomacy, global cooperation and cohesion and a focus on public engagement as a solution to neglected and emerging diseases. Chapters cover: a new post-2015 urgency; a Cold War legacy; vaccine science envoy; battling diseases of the Anthropocene; the Middle East killing fields; Africa's ""un-wars""; the northern triangle and the collapse of Venezuela; global health security and the rise in anti-science; implementing vaccine diplomacy and the rise of COVID-19."
