Résultats de l’enquête nationale à indicateurs multiples couplée avec la sérologie VIH et anémie en RCA 2006

La politique en matière de Santé de la Reproduction définit les grandes orientations en matière de santé de la reproduction. Elle répond aux questions importantes sur des thèmes comme les droits en matière de santé de la reproduction, la nature des services qui doivent être disponibles ...et les règles générales de leur prestation. La politique de SR sert de référence aux décideurs nationaux et aux partenaires du développement socio-sanitaire pour la planification et les interventions. Elle est une composante de la politique sanitaire nationale et un élément de promotion de la santé des groupes vulnérables que sont entre autres les femmes, les enfants, les adolescents et les jeunes. more

The frequency of infectious disease epidemics is increasing, and the role of the health sector in the management of epidemics is crucial in terms of response. In the context of infectious disease epidemics, the use of climate-informed early warning systems (EWS) has the potential to increase the eff...ectiveness of disease control by intervening before or at the beginning of the epidemic curve, instead of during the downward slope. Currently, the initiation of interventions is heavily reliant on routine disease surveillance systems – data that often arrive too late for preventative response. However, forecasting of disease outbreaks using surveillance and weather information shows promising potential – there also remains further scope to examine seasonal climate forecasts. By combining these elements in new EWS based on computational models, it will be possible to improve both the timeliness and impact of disease control. The World Health Organization (WHO) is strengthening existing surveillance systems for infectious diseases to enable the development of more robust and timely EWS, which has resulted in the rapid development and innovation of EWS for disease outbreaks. more
