1. BRIEF OVERVIEW OF INFECTIOUS DISEASE AND VACCINES .

2. NOTHING IS MORE INTERNATIONAL THAN DISEASES

3. F lu of 1918: killed more than 50 million If 100 people have infectious disease on day 1, and if the number of cases doubles every day, the entire population of the earth will be infected by day 27 Outbreaks are inevitable, but pandemics are optional Some Facts…..

4. Excess mortality The lower your excess mortality, the better you're doing. some countries' excess mortality is actually negative. Lowest Excess Mortality: Australia, Vietnam, New Zealand, South Korea. Impact of Infectiuos Disease

5. Lesson learned from COVID 19 IHME data suggest, country's success against COVID correlates roughly -people trust on government. Strong network of health clinics that are well staffed with trained personnel, are trusted by people in their community, have supplies when they're needed, and so on, you are in a better position to fight off a new disease.

6. WHO- >115,000 Health Workers -lost their lives taking care of COVID 19 patients by May 2021. Influenza viruses can quickly mature into new variants that's why flu vaccines are reviewed each year and frequently updated. Lesson learned from COVID 19

7. Breakthrough cases - people who have been vaccinated end up getting infected anyway.

8. Town A low vaccination rate 1000 severe cases, 10 are breakthrough Town B high vaccination rate 100 severe cases, 8 are breakthrough

9. Important number is not the breakthrough rate. it's the total number of severe cases, and that number went from 1,000 in the first town to just 100 in the next. Safer town??

10. Government -responsible for safety of their people. For some 2,000 years, human have recognized that individual families and businesses aren't solely responsible for protecting themselves- they need help from the community.

11. Global level- we need group of experts whose full-time job is to help the world to prevent pandemics. In a well run system : Clinics are fully staffed and equipped Pregnant women get pre- and postnatal care children get their routine vaccines healthcare workers are well trained in public health and pandemics prevention

12. -Reporting system make it easy to identify suspicious clusters of cases and raise the red flag.

13. Nation above much more likely to notice the early stage of a new disease emerging. Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network( GOARN )- respond to major outbreak.

14. EFFECTIVE RESPONSE TO AN OUTBREAK Sick people have to go to a clinic, and the health workers there have to diagnose them properly. Those cases must get reported up the chain, and an analyst has to notice an unusual cluster of cases with similar suspicious symptoms or test results. Microbiologist - must get samples of the pathogen and determine whether it's something we've seen before. Geneticist - may need to map its genome.

15. Epidemiologists - have to understand how transmissible and severe the disease is. COMMUNITY LEADERS NEED TO GET, AND SHARE , ACCURATE INFORMATION.

16. SURVEILLANCE DISEASE SURVEILLANCE- the continuous scrutiny of occurrence of diseases and health-related events to enable prompt intervention for the control of diseases . Active Disease Surveillance- Passive Disease Surveillance-

17. Which is more Dangerous? COVID 19 virus- able to stay in air for several seconds or minutes Measles- can stay in air for hours.

18. Average probability of success for vaccine candidate is 6%. Goal of vaccine - to prevent severe sickness and death, not to prevent infection. but that's not ideal, of course: A perfect vaccine would in fact keep you from getting infected, which would make a big difference in cutting down transmission- no one who was vaccinated could pass the pathogen to other people.

19. Measles vaccine is a good example: After two doses, it gives you 97% protection against infection. Vaccines need to be affordable or free, and available nearby at a time when people can get to them. Impact of Politicians, Celebrities and Religious Leaders?

20. Zambia- anyone in search of good information can tune the radio to FM 99.1. once a week, Catholic nun and social worker sister astridah banda hosts the " COVID -19 Awareness Program", a talk show where she and her guests discuss health topics- with focus on preventing COVID - and answer questions from callers. Driving up vaccination rates require both supply and demand- you need to have enough vaccines, and people need to want them.

21. BIOTERRORISM 1155, Frederick I, the Holy Roman Emperor, poisoned the local water wells with dead human bodies. 18 th Century, British soldiers distributed blankets used by smallpox patients to Ntive Americans. Today the natural pathogens that would make the most fearsome weapon is surely smallpox. Sample- US and Russia. Scary?

22. Achievement in COVID 19 Vaccine within 18 months, multiple vaccines had been developed, proven safe and effective, and delivered to more than 3 billion people, or nearly 40% of the earth's population. Human have never responded faster or more effectively to a global disease. We accomplished in a year and a half something that normally takes half a decade or more.

23. Why Focus on Child Health? child mortality- measuring stick for the health of the world. Improving child survival requires some interventions such as maternity care for their mothers, childhood vaccines, better education for women, and better diets. When more children survive, it's an indication that a country is getting better at doing these things.
