Infectious Disease

Keystone convenes decision-makers and thought leaders from government, communities, medicine and health care, industry, and patient advocacy to develop efficacious strategies for combating the spread of infectious disease.  Approaches range from guiding policy makers to preparing communities.  Deliberations must often frankly address the role of differing social values, as well as trade-offs between the needs of specific sub-populations and those of the larger national or global population.
