The White House Office of Pandemic Preparedness and Response Policy (OPPR) is an official office within the Executive Office of the President. In 2022, Congress passed the PREVENT Pandemics Act, formally establishing the Office of Pandemic Preparedness and Response Policy to better prepare the United States for future pandemics and adding additional resources to the existing directorate. The Biden Administration announced the creation of the OPPR in July 2023. It began work in August 2023.
