How GIDEON helps JDMT support Swiss emergency preparedness

 

  • GIDEON provides reliable infectious disease data that helps strengthen JDMT’s public health work and crisis preparedness
  • This data supports JDMT’s wide-ranging work, from corporate health consulting to national pandemic preparedness programs

 

Learning from experience

During the 2014 Ebola epidemic, JDMT was central to Switzerland’s national response, developing critical infrastructure including quarantine planning, airport protocols, contact tracing frameworks, and nationwide education campaigns.

While JDMT successfully navigated the crisis, Dr. Juchli recognized that GIDEON would have been invaluable for rapid planning and decision-making at the time.

The foundation for critical decision-making

With this experience and GIDEON’s capabilities, JDMT now strengthens Switzerland’s intelligence foundation for future health threats.
