Abstract

Global health is under siege by an orchestra of factors ranging from aging human population and its attendant disease vulnerabilities, food insecurity and its attendant malnutrition, onslaught of environmentally unfriendly human activities that have given rise to climate change and its many debilitating effects on mankind, the emerged drug resistance problem secondary to emergence of resistant pathogens, and the generally weak global healthcare response system which was recently exposed by the Covid-19 pandemic.
