USAID PREDICT
PREDICT was an epidemiological research program funded by a United States Agency for International Development (USAID) grant. Launched in 2009, the program was described as an early warning pandemic in response to the influenza A virus subtype H5N1 “bird flu” outbreak in 2005. It was designed and overseen by Dennis Carroll, then the director of the USAID emerging threats division with epidemiologist Jonna Mazet of the University of California, Davis as its global director.
PREDICT has been enabling global surveillance of pathogens that can spillover from animal hosts to people by building capacities to detect an discover viruses of pandemic potential. The project is part of USAID’s Emerging Pandemic Threats program and is led by the UC Davis One Health Institute. 1)
