Dear Colleagues,
The Ebola Virus is a significant current issue for those working in public health. WHO have declared that the conditions for a Public Health Emergency of International Concern under the International Health Regulations 2005 have been met. Port Health Officers are a key front line control against the spread of diseases of international concern.
Whilst public health is of utmost concern, ensuring that over-reactions do not occur is also vital in providing effective controls. How can PAGNet assist?
WHO/Europe organized a regional course on ship inspection and issuing of ship sanitation certificates, under the framework of the International Health Regulations – 2005 (IHR). The face-to-face training was held in St Petersburg, Russia, from 12 to 16 May 2014, in collaboration with the Federal Service for Supervision of Consumer Rights Protection and Human welfare service (Rospotrebnadzor) from Russia and under the scope and support of the European Union Contribution Agreement with WHO for “Strengthening Health Security at Ports, Airports and Ground Crossings”.
A new WHO publication "Interim Guidance for Ebola Event Management at Points of Entry" is released, please find it at
http://www.who.int/csr/disease/ebola/event-management-poe/en/
This interim guidance document for Ebola virus disease is intended for National Focal Points for the International Health Regulations (IHR)(2005), PoE public health authorities, PoE operators, conveyance operators, crew members and other stakeholders involved in the management of Public health event.
The roadmap was informed by comments received from a large number of partners, including health officials in the affected countries, the African Union, development banks, other UN agencies, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), and countries providing direct financial support.
