The only thing that moves faster than viruses is data, experts noted at Wednesday’s launch of the World Health Organization (WHO) Hub for Pandemic and Epidemic Intelligence in Berlin.

The aim of the hub is to work with partners to “create the tools and data needed to enable countries to prepare, detect and respond to pandemic and epidemic risks”, according to the WHO.

It named Dr Chikwe Ihekweazu, Director-General of Nigeria’s Centre for Disease Control, as new head of the hub, and WHO Assistant Director-General for health emergency intelligence in Geneva.
