Are there any infectious disease experts who can give a clear overview of our risk for global pandemics in the near future? (slrpnk.net)

Given the engineered collapse of USAID and the NIH in the USA, as well as their turning away from WHO support, what are the most likely future scenarios? Can the other developed nations mount a credible pandemic response without the resources of the USA?

I am especially interested in global perspectives because pathogens don’t need passports. How might this impact the global order?

Prevalence of Optimal Metabolic Health in American Adults: National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2009–2016

Metabolically healthy Americans.... at 12%

My data shows 88% metabolically unhealthy as of 2016, so I'm guessing it hasn't improved since then. But the exact numbers are not so important, the trend and prevalence

The more recent paper on this has it at 8% but I don't have that link handy.

Here is the new data until 2018. We are down to 6.8% healthy, 93.2% compromised.
