Milestone
1.3.b

Expanded surveillance plan

In progress

Identify funding and implement the expanded surveillance plan detailed in Milestone 1.3.a (to be funded for at least 5 years). One option is to create a coordinated global network of centers with the capability to sample wild birds, domestic animals, and humans at the human-animal interface to test for influenza viruses.

Progress Highlights

The CEIRR network, established in 2021 and funded through 2028, supports projects to determine how influenza viruses evolve, adapt and transmit between humans and at interspecies interfaces, including conducting global surveillance of influenza viruses at the human-animal interface.
