	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/

	Manual for developing national malaria strategic plans World Health Organization WHO, Regional Office for Africa (2019) C_WHO View PDF(291) Download (156) Add to my MEDBOX The aim of the framework is to provide guidance to Member States and partners on region-specific priority actions towards the goals, targets and milestones of the GTS. The central pillar of the framework is the adoption of programme phasing and transitioning, aimed at facilitating a tailored approach to malaria control/elimination. This is in response to the increasing heterogeneity of malaria epidemiology among and within countries of the region Tags: malaria, malaria control, Elimination, National Strategy, guideline, Source: https://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/hand
	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.

	Fighting Cholera - Operational Handbook: Response to outbreaks and risk prevention in endemic areas Solidarités International (2018) CC View PDF(753) Download (230) Add to my MEDBOX Cholera is a diarrhoeal disease that is usually contracted when drinking water contaminated with Vibrio cholerae bacteria. The fight against this disease requires a multidisciplinary approach that combines a water, hygiene and sanitation (WaSH) response with a monitoring system, improved water supply and quality, sanitation and hygiene, and a health response with the treatment of the disease itself Tags: cholera, outbreak control, Outbreak Preparedness Plan and Coordination, handbook, Source: https://reliefweb.int/sites/reliefweb.in
	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
	Global leishmaniasis update, 2006–2015: a turning point in leishmaniasis surveillance World Health Organization (WHO) (2017) C_WHO View PDF(199) Download (202) Add to my MEDBOX Weekly epidemiological record / Relevé épidémiologique hebdomadaire 22 SEPTEMBER 2017, 92th YEAR / 22 SEPTEMBRE 2017, 92e ANNÉE No 38, 2017, 92, 557–572 There are 4 main forms of the disease: visceral leishmaniasis (VL, also known as kala-azar); post-kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL); cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL); and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis (MCL). While cutaneous leishmaniasis is the most common form of the disease, visceral leishmaniasis is the most serious and can be fatal if untreated. Additionally, leishmaniasis can be classified as anthroponotic or zoonotic depending on whether the natural reservoir of the parasite is human or animal. This report updates global epidemiological information on VL and CL to 2015, based on the main indicators published in the GHO, as of 1st September 2017 Tags: visceral leishmaniasis (VL), cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL), disease surveillance, Source: http://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/handl
