Frequently asked questions
What do prediction markets say about bird flu?
H5N1 and avian influenza markets track the probability of human-to-human transmission, WHO emergency declarations, and pandemic-level outbreaks. Odds shift based on surveillance data, case reports, and viral evolution signals.
How did prediction markets perform during COVID-19?
Early prediction markets on COVID-19 outcomes provided some of the first quantitative signals about pandemic severity, vaccine timelines, and policy responses. Markets with sufficient liquidity outperformed many expert forecasts on timing and magnitude.
Can prediction markets predict the next pandemic?
Markets cannot predict specific outbreaks, but they can price the probability of pandemic-level events within timeframes. Tracking these odds alongside surveillance data gives a more complete picture of global health risk than any single source alone.
