Eve Irvine is pleased to welcome WHO Spokesperson Tarik Jašarević.

Conflict, population mobility and other humanitarian pressures make surveillance more difficult, but community engagement is equally crucial. Without trust and cooperation, testing, contact tracing, safe burials and early treatment cannot work effectively.
