The workshop will also focus on exploring approaches to incorporate estimates of infectious disease risk to overall macroeconomic assessments of economic growth in countries to incentivize action that minimize these threats. Specifically, this workshop will feature invited presentations and discussions on topics, including • Economic costs from infectious diseases that may place a dispro portionate burden on low- and middle-income countries but affect regional and global stability because of interconnected financial systems worldwide • Gaps in assessing economic costs of microbial threats through multiple channels of disruption, including dynamics of fear-based behavioral change • Critical opportunities and challenges to model and develop metrics of risk, including identifying and using appropriate data and deal ing with uncertainty, and to build analytical tools to understand the potential economic consequences of infectious diseases in the short, medium, and long term 123
