2018 annual review of the Blueprint list of priority diseases
List of Blueprint priority diseases
For the purposes of the R&D Blueprint, WHO has developed a special tool for determining which diseases and pathogens to prioritize for research and development in public health emergency contexts. This tool seeks to identify those diseases that pose a public health risk because of their epidemic potential and for which there are no, or insufficient, countermeasures. The diseases identified through this process are the focus of the work of R& D Blueprint. This is not an exhaustive list, nor does it indicate the most likely causes of the next epidemic.
The first list of prioritized diseases was released in December 2015.
Using a published prioritization methodology, the list was first reviewed in January 2017.
