Description:
H.R. 391 would encourage the Administration to participate in and make financial contributions to programs that help public health systems detect and respond to infectious diseases. The bill would require the Administration to support the establishment of a new public-private Fund for Global Health Security and Pandemic Preparedness, which would help other countries implement health security strategies and respond to public health emergencies around the world. Although the bill would authorize the United States to contribute to the fund, it does not specify how much, and it would limit U.S. contributions to 33 percent of the total from all sources.
