Global Burden and Challenges of Melioidosis
This book is the definitive reference regarding the global status of melioidosis in 2018. Melioidosis is one of the most neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), so much so that it is not even included in the WHO list of NTDs. Yet modeling suggests that it kills more people worldwide every year than diseases that are much better known, such as leptospirosis and dengue. The reasons for this under-recognition are numerous, including the fact that it mainly affects the disadvantaged rural poor in areas that are poorly supplied with the diagnostic capability to make the diagnosis. In 22 separate articles, expert authors from around the world have summarized what is known about the burden of the disea...
Second meeting of the WHO Strategic and Technical Advisory Group working group on access to safe, efficacious and quality-assured health products for neglected tropical diseases
The STAG Working Group on access to safe, efficacious and quality-assured health products for neglected tropical diseases was established in 2021 to facilitate alignment of stakeholders on strategies and best practices for improving access to medicines and other health products for NTDs. The Working Group held its second technical meeting virtually on 19 September 2023. The main outcomes of the meeting were to expand the scope of drug efficacy monitoring to include other neglected tropical diseases and to seek synergy in addressing common issues and challenges across diseases for procurement and supply chain management. In addition to the Working Group’s members, observers, invited guests and the WHO secretariat attended the meeting. This publication contains the report of the meeting and its recommendations to STAG, which will be helpful as a reference and of use to the wider NTD community.
Antimicrobial resistance curriculum assessment tool for medical education
The Global Action Plan on Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) calls for making AMR a core component of professional education and training. In 2018, the World Health Organization (WHO) published Competency framework for health workers’ education and training on AMR to ensure that academic institutions and regulatory agencies provided pre-service and in-service training to equip health workers with the adequate competencies to address AMR. This was followed by Health workers’ training and education on AMR: curricula guide, which outlines the learning objectives and expected outcomes of pre-service training of health workers to improve curricula. The tool for assessing AMR curricula for medical...
