The Global One Health initiative (GOHi) recently provided the Ethiopian Public Health Institute with essential laboratory reagents to detect various pathogens that cause disease, including SARS-CoV-2, influenza, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and anthrax.
Ethiopia is currently facing a challenging situation with multiple ongoing outbreaks, such as cholera, measles, malaria, and dengue fever.
Expanding capacity of the One Health approach through education, training and research is the cornerstone of the Global One Health initiative’s (GOHi) mission.
In a collaborative effort to address the challenges of data quality in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) surveillance, the Global One Health initiative (GOHi) partnered with the Ethiopian Public Health Institute (EPHI) to conduct a training program about data management and basic statistical modeling in One Health research.
The Global One Health initiative (GOHi) facilitated the calibration of real-time PCR machines in four regional influenza laboratories across Ethiopia through a service contract with African Biosystems, Kenya from July 29-August 9.
