The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) is the EU agency dedicated to strengthening Europe’s defences against infectious diseases. On December 4, 2025, the ECDC released a new comprehensive guide outlining strategies to detect and respond to zoonotic influenza threats, including swine flu. Emphasising a “One Health” approach, the agency highlights the critical need for close collaboration between veterinary services, agriculture, and public health sectors to prevent future pandemics.
