💨 Abstract

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has published a list of 24 pathogen families, including viruses and bacteria, that pose the highest risk for causing public health emergencies. These pathogens range from well-known ones like Covid-19 to more obscure ones like Crimean Congo Haemorrhagic fever. The list is the first to consider global health threats as well as those specific to the UK population.
