“All of the sudden, we had a very powerful system that brought
in much more information from more countries, and we where
able to go to countries confidentially and validate what was
going on, and if they needed help, we provided help. And we
provided help by bringing together many different institutions
from around the world that started to work with us.”
“Supernetworks”
“Small“Collective
World Networks”
Intelligence”
There is a bigger "networks of networks" […]. In GOARN
you have CDC, MSF and Red Cross. Which you also have in
the different coordination groups for meningitis vaccine and
yellow fever vaccine. Or in global polio eradication. These
are enormous, but some are very small and, you would
bring in the global influenza with laboratories and national
influenza centers. But that is the “network of networks”
which has no substance, no defined substance. It's there,
the function, but in a highly chaotic, very undefined way.
