The Division of Global Health Protection (DGHP), Center for Global Health, Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC), Thailand has worked with Thailand’s Ministry of Public Health (MOPH) since 1980 to prevent and control HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, influenza, and other infectious diseases; combat emerging infectious diseases through preparation, surveillance, and control; translate local research into global advances. The current COVID-19 response is a hallmark example of how this collaboration has been key to building a successful response to a global pandemic. Through the partnership with Siriraj’s Long-read Lab (Si-LoL), DGHP/CDC will provide laboratory facilities for genome sequencing of pathogens (e.g., SARS-CoV-2) while Si-LoL will share the expertise in Oxford Nanopore sequencing technology and Bioinformatics. This collaboration can grow the evidence-based pathogen prevention and control programs and support pandemic preparedness and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic in Thailand.
