Integrating Global Public Health Intelligence - Thematic Analysis from WES Synthesis 2025
Aims:
The global public health landscape is rapidly evolving, driven by emerging infectious diseases, shifting vaccination priorities, and climate-related health risks. The WES Synthesis 2025 project aimed to consolidate and analyse recent intelligence from international and national sources to inform strategic planning, policy development, and workforce preparedness.
Methods:
Outputs generated between January and September 2025 were systematically reviewed from WHO, ECDC, UKHSA, CDC, ProMED, and national public health bodies. A thematic analysis identified trends across six domains: emerging infectious diseases, vaccination guidance, antimicrobial resistance, sexual health, environment and health, and public health systems. Items were categorised by theme, action type, and relevance.
Results:
Over 1,000 intelligence items were reviewed. Key findings included measles and mpox resurgence, expanded avian influenza surveillance, and updated vaccination guidance for COVID-19, RSV, and influenza. Other priorities included antimicrobial resistance monitoring, rising STI rates among young adults in Ireland, climate-sensitive disease patterns, and strengthened digital preparedness frameworks.
Discussion:
The WES Synthesis 2025 underscores the value of integrated horizon scanning and thematic evidence review in strengthening public health intelligence. Findings provide actionable insights to support timely decision-making, targeted interventions, and enhanced situational awareness. This approach offers a replicable model for multidisciplinary evidence integration to address evolving health threats.
