Dear colleagues,
The requirements of the IHR include several provisions for vector control measures, including disinsection, relating to aircraft and other conveyances, as well as measures to maintain points of entry free from sources of infection including mosquito vectors and reservoirs. This may require a perimeter exceeding 400 metres (IHR Art. 22b, Annex 5.4).

Dear colleagues,
Mass gatherings may facilitate the importation/ exportation of communicable diseases and challenge preparedness and health surveillance at points of entry.
A sensitive and timely syndromic surveillance enables to identify health threats which might develop further.
Allow me to share with you this interseting article about Kumbh Mela ,in India, which is the biggest mass gathering all over the world.

Since January last year Belgium switched over to an electronic MDH. The ships agent has to fill in the form using the port information system. Most of the time is is going very well. So what are your experiences with the electronic MDH? What kind of measures are in use if the MDH has not been filled in properly?
Many thanks for your response
PHA. Belgium
