Some companies have already developed strategies that make use of both countries' capabilities.
Earlier this year, Ivanka Barzashka, a research associate at the Centre for Science and Security Studies at King's College London, published an analysis of Iran's uranium enrichment capabilities, arguing that even if Stuxnet destroyed some of Iran's centrifuges, it had a negligible impact on the countries capabilities.
These burdens have overstretched countries' capabilities in health promotion and improving the well-being of their population.
Conventional tracked vehicles have superior cross-country capability compared to common wheeled vehicles, but poor maneuverability, especially poor steering performance.
However, the existing omnidirectional vehicles have poor cross-country capability despite much higher maneuverability than common vehicles.
In addition, the introduction of such a system will provide a foundation for NGS to be used for genotypic testing for human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients, surveillance of other diseases, in-country capability for outbreak discovery and management, and a host of other diagnostic benefits that are currently limited to high-income countries.
We need to strengthen local (i.e., in-country) capabilities to detect and respond to potential health events that have mass consequences diseases ranging from SARS to cholera.
In fact, the structure and organization of international and regional programmes directly depend on the infrastructure of national programmes and country capabilities.
Recent outbreaks, such as SARS and influenza, highlighted the basic need for in-country capabilities for disease recognition and identification at the source of emergence as a part of an early warning system for emerging and reemerging health threats [ 5].
How can countries escape capability traps?
