Why preparedness matters

The pandemic that changed everything.

COVID-19 exposed the cost of unpreparedness. A localised outbreak became a global catastrophe — overwhelming health systems, collapsing economies, claiming millions of lives. Nigeria's response, though resilient, revealed gaps ACEIHS was built to close permanently.
