Ebola at points of entry

 

Dear colleagues and friends,

 

The current Ebola outbreak remains the world's largest and deadliest to date. It goes without saying that it has put a huge strain on the health system in some countries and has challenged some others. Even the report of the first meeting of the review committee on the role of the IHR in the Ebola outbreak and response (Geneva, 24-25 August 2015) underlines that “The Ebola outbreak offers the best chance for transforming the global response to health emergencies”.

desinsection in aircrafts from recommended areas

 

 Dear Colleagues. I need some help.

The International Health Regulations 2005 (Anex V) establishes that WHO will publish in a frequent and periodic basis a list of areas for which disinfection procedures in aircrafts or other measures for vectors control are recommended to prevent vector-borne diseases.

Nowadays, in Brazil, we use, the list of countries with risk of yellow fever transmission for this purpose. Is there another WHO list of areas  addressing to the issue desinfection?

 

Regards,

 

Teresa Castelo Branco
