	WHO Guidelines for malaria World Health Organization (WHO) (2022) C_WHO View PDF(1631) Download (2152) Add to my MEDBOX 3 June 2022 The WHO Guidelines for malaria bring together the Organization’s most up-to-date recommendations for malaria in one user-friendly and easy-to-navigate online platform. https://app.magicapp.org/#/guideline/6086 The WHO Guidelines for malaria supersedes 2 previous WHO publications: the Guidelines for the treatment of malaria, third edition and the Guidelines for malaria vector control. Recommendations on malaria will continue to be reviewed and, where appropriate, updated based on the latest available evidence. Any updated recommendations will always display the date of the most recent revision in the MAGICapp platform. With each update, a new PDF version of the consolidated guidelines will also be available for download on the WHO website. The third version of the Guidelines includes a new section on malaria vaccines and replaces the versions published on 16 February 2021 and 13 July 2021 Tags: malaria treatment, Guidelines, vaccine, diagnostic, Vector Control, Source: https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/
	The Paradigm shift - Global Plan to End TB 2018-2022 Stop TB Partnership; UNOPS; END TB (2018) C1 View PDF(1274) Download (558) Add to my MEDBOX The updated Global Plan for 2018-2022 is deliberately aligned with the time frame of the UNHLM targets, making it a tool for advocacy, resource mobilization, civil society and community empowerment, and accountability on the UNHLM targets and commitments. It is centered on strong political leadership to achieve the UNHLM targets and commitments. It breaks down the global UNHLM targets into country shares to ensure that countries deliver on their commitments and, collectively, the world reaches the agreed targets. It provides an estimate of the resources needed to achieve the UNHLM targets and commitments, both for TB care and prevention and for research into new tools. It highlights the need for a rights-based, people-centered approach that is community-based and gender-responsiv Tags: tb, Tuberculosis, global health, plan, Advocacy, Source: https://www.stoptb.org/sites/default/fil
	Global report on insecticide resistance in malaria vectors: 2010–2016 World Health Organization WHO (2018) C_WHO View PDF(343) Download (196) Add to my MEDBOX As of October 2017, the global database comprised almost 30 000 records, including results from bioassays to measure phenotypic resistance, and biochemical and molecular tests for resistance mechanisms. The current report presents an overview of data on malaria vector resistance for 2010 to 2016. It aims to provide the baseline for subsequent status updates and to identify any temporal trends. An online mapping tool called Malaria Threats Map allows further interactive exploration of available data.

	Global vector control response 2017–2030 World Health Organization (WHO) (2017) C_WHO View PDF(809) Download (339) Add to my MEDBOX The Global vector control response 2017–2030 (GVCR) provides a new strategy to strengthen vector control worldwide through increased capacity, improved surveillance, better coordination and integrated action across sectors and diseases. In May 2017, the World Health Assembly adopted resolution WHA 70.16, which calls on Member States to develop or adapt national vector control strategies and operational plans to align with this strategy Tags: National Strategy, Vector Control, Source: http://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/handl
	Framework for a national plan for monitoring and management of insecticide resistance in malaria vectors World Health Organization (WHO) (2017) C_WHO View PDF(1354) Download (361) Add to my MEDBOX Effective malaria prevention is threatened by widespread and increasing vector insecticide resistance. Failure to mitigate this threat will likely result in an increased burden of disease, with significant cost implications. This new framework provides support for the development of a national insecticide resistance monitoring and management plan as part of a national malaria strategic plan Tags: monitoring and screening, vector management, insecticide resistance, malaria vectors, malaria control, malaria treatment, Source: http://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/handl

	Vector surveillance and control at ports, airports, and ground crossings World Health Organization (WHO) (2016) C_WHO View PDF(1220) Download (352) Add to my MEDBOX The purpose of this handbook is to provide guidance to Member States on the practical aspects of maintaining sanitary standards at international borders at ports, airports, and ground crossings (points of entry) as set out in the International Health Regulations (2005). It provides technical advice for developing a comprehensive programme for systematic monitoring of disease vectors and integrated vector control at points of entry. This includes standardizing procedures at points of entry and ensuring a sufficient monitoring and response capacity with the necessary infrastructure for surveillance and control of vectors. In addition, this handbook to serves as reference material for port health officers, regulators, port operators, and other competent authorities in charge of implementing the IHR (2005) at points of entry and on conveyances Tags: ports, airports, ground crossings, sanitary standards, Insect control, aedes, prevention of disease, Vector Control, monitoring and surveillance, Guidelines, Source: http://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/handl
	Global health sector strategy on Sexually Transmitted Infections, 2016-2021: Towards Ending STIs World Health Organization (WHO) (2016) C_WHO View PDF(826) Download (433) Add to my MEDBOX The strategy, once adopted, and its implementation will contribute to a radical decline in new sexually transmitted infections and in deaths related to such infections (including still births and cervical cancer), while improving individual health, men’s and women’s sexual health, and the well-being of all people. It will guide efforts to: accelerate and focus comprehensive prevention efforts through scaling up evidence-based combined behavioural, biomedical and structural approaches; facilitate people’s access to information on their sexually transmitted infection status; improve access to treatment and comprehensive long-term care when needed; and challenge pervasive stigmatization and discrimination. The strategy promotes a people-centred approach, grounded in principles of human rights, gender equality and health equity Tags: prevention of disease, Sexually transmitted infections (STIs), health policy, health sector policy, prevention and control, Source: http://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/handl
