But funding for research in this area is \u201cpretty much zero\u201d worldwide, according to Andrew Cunningham, professor of wildlife epidemiology and deputy director of science at the Zoological Society of London (ZSL).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"wp-block-cd-related-news alignright block--related-news loading\" data-post-id=\"36839\"><div class=\"block--related-news__image\"><\/div><div class=\"block--related-news__content\"><span class=\"block--related-news__heading\">Recommended<\/span><span class=\"block--related-news__title\"><\/span><\/div><\/a>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHundreds of millions of dollars need to be spent on this area globally,\u201d he says. This type of science combines human health, livestock health and wildlife health, and as such, falls between silos when it comes to funding, he explains. What money there is tends to be grant-based and consequently short-lived, he says, the knock-on effect being that relatively few people globally specialise in the spillover of animal diseases to humans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What funding there is typically gets directed at what Cunningham calls \u201cvirus-hunting\u201d \u2013 finding animals to identify what viruses they have. \u201cYou can do that till the cows come home but it won\u2019t really help you prevent the next pandemic,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead, research needs to better understand how behaviours bring people into contact with wildlife and wildlife products, he says. This would provide more information on the relative risks of hunting, live wildlife markets, or agriculture encroaching into forests and exposing livestock to remote populations of wild animals. It is&nbsp;not yet clear, for example, which&nbsp;species are particularly risky, or if viruses are more likely to transfer to humans during certain seasons, Cunningham says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-limited-collaboration\">Limited collaboration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Attempts by governments to collaborate on zoonotic disease research are limited. The Global Health Security Agenda (GHSAC) was launched in 2014 as a voluntary alliance of governments, multilateral organisations and charities to promote engagement on infectious diseases. It has a working group on zoonotic diseases, but its role is to identify areas of research to inform funding organisations, rather than funding or undertaking the research itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Catherine Machalaba, policy advisor and research scientist at non-profit EcoHealth Alliance, which is a member of the GHSAC, says that capacity to manage risk factors that lie outside the public health sector is limited, and few efforts exist&nbsp;to create early warning systems on pandemics. In order to do this, environment and animal health sectors need to be integrated with health security to improve detection of wildlife pathogens, she says. \u201cThis is critical for getting ahead of disease threats to move from reactive response to proactive prevention.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cd-pull-quote block--pull-quote\"><div class=\"block--pull-quote__wrapper\"><blockquote class=\"block--pull-quote__quote\">Covid-19 has made COP15 even more relevant. The negotiations need to be reframed around preventing pandemics<\/blockquote><cite class=\"block--pull-quote__cite\">Li Shuo, Greenpeace global policy advisor<\/cite><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The EcoHealth Alliance is&nbsp;one of few organisations that works at the intersection of animal, environment and human health. However, at the end of April, US federal agency the National Institutes of Health (NIH) axed funding for a project the alliance was running, saying that it did not \u201calign with agency priorities\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the alliance said the project was analysing the risk of coronavirus emergence, and that genetic sequencing it had carried out was helping to design drugs against Covid-19. Just before the funding was terminated,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencemag.org\/sites\/default\/files\/Lauer.Daszak.NIH%20grant%20killed.partial%20email%20transcripts.April%202020.pdf\">the NIH had questioned the alliance<\/a>&nbsp;over whether it had provided any money to China\u2019s Wuhan Institute of Virology, which President Donald Trump has accused of being the source of Covid-19, despite failing to support this claim with evidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-new-approach-is-needed\">A new approach is needed<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To prevent another pandemic, ZSL has called for a new global centre of excellence to provide long-term research programmes, and to train students to work across disciplines, including epidemiology, medicine,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?sxsrf=ALeKk02GkgiQS9RwifHIJpnX1sHtivAxtg:1589298824118&amp;q=veterinary&amp;spell=1&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwiwy-m-167pAhUDi1wKHQa5AWsQkeECKAB6BAgPECc\">veterinary<\/a>&nbsp;science, modelling, social science and anthropology. The World Health Organization, the UN Environment Programme and the Food and Agriculture Organization should come together to establish such a body, or organise governments to do so, Cunningham suggests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The upcoming global deal on biodiversity protection, to be decided at&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinadialogue.net\/article\/show\/single\/en\/11873-Explainer-COP15-the-biggest-biodiversity-conference-in-a-decade\">COP15<\/a>&nbsp;in China, is an opportunity for governments to better coordinate wildlife protection to reduce the threat of future pandemics, according to Li Shuo, Greenpeace global policy advisor. \u201cCovid-19 has made COP15 even more relevant. The negotiations need to be reframed around preventing pandemics,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"wp-block-cd-related-news alignright block--related-news loading\" data-post-id=\"61601\"><div class=\"block--related-news__image\"><\/div><div class=\"block--related-news__content\"><span class=\"block--related-news__heading\">Recommended<\/span><span class=\"block--related-news__title\"><\/span><\/div><\/a>\n\n\n\n<p>The emergence of a virus even deadlier than Covid-19 is \u201cjust a matter of time\u201d, says Cunningham. As well as viruses yet to be discovered, there are some already known about&nbsp;that could become more devastating, he says. For example,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.who.int\/news-room\/fact-sheets\/detail\/nipah-virus\">the nipah virus<\/a>, which kills 40-75% of infected people, has so far not been very effective at spreading between humans, so outbreaks have fizzled out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But nipah is a ribonucleic acid virus, which are very good at adapting, Cunningham says. \u201cEach time there\u2019s a spillover, we\u2019re giving it another opportunity to adapt to a new host. It might take 100 or 1,000 spillover events before it can spread effectively from person to person. But once it can do that, there\u2019s no going back. It will cause a pandemic with a 50% fatality rate. Why do we wait for these things to happen before we do something about it?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Despite 75% of new human diseases originating in animals, funding
