Guidelines for Management and Treatment of Dyslipidemia in Indonesia
This algorithm is addressed to laboratories
with established capacity(molecular, antigenic and/orserological) to detect dengue (DENV), Zika (ZIKV), and chikungunya(CHIKV) as part of the differential diagnosis for arborviruses. A BSL2 containment level is required to handle suspected samples.

A Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS), com apoio do Grupo Consultivo Estratégico de Especialistas em Imunização (Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunization – SAGE) e do respectivo Grupo de Trabalho para Vacinas contra a COVID-19, está analisando novas evidências sobre o uso de vaci...nação heteróloga (conhecida também como vacinação mix and match). Na vacinação heteróloga, a segunda dose usa uma vacina diferente da que foi usada na primeira dose. Reforço heterólogo, por outro lado, refere-se à administração de uma vacina com plataforma tecnológica diferente da que foi usada para concluir o esquema primário de vacinação. Esta declaração provisória diz respeito apenas à vacinação heteróloga, e não ao reforço heterólogo.

The overall threat posed by Omicron largely depends on four key questions: (i) how transmissible the variant is; (ii) how well vaccines and prior infection protect against infection, transmission, clinical disease and death; (iii) how virulent the variant is compared to other varian...ts; and (iv) how populations understand these dynamics, perceive risk and follow control measures, including public health and social measures (PHSM).

Overview
16 Dec 2021. This interim guidance pertains to heterologous primary and heterologous boosting schedules of Covid-19 vaccines. It focuses on heterologous schedules combining multiple vaccine platforms (e.g. a vectored vaccine followed by an mRNA vaccine).

Additional dose of the primary vaccination against COVID-19: Technical Guidelines
17 Febr. 2022. As part of the “Strategy to Achieve Global COVID-19 Vaccination by mid-2022”, global targets of 40% population coverage by end of 2021 and 70% coverage by June 2022 have been set by the World Health Organization (WHO), to successfully prevent severe illness and deaths, minimize so...cial disruption and economic consequences of COVID-19, curtail the emergence of new SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOCs) and ultimately control the pandemic.

Campaña Nacional de Vacunación contra la COVID-19
La evidencia disponible a nivel internacional sobre el uso de un segundo refuerzo muestra una mayor duración de la respuesta inmune y una disminución de la internación y la mortalidad por COVID 19 en la población de adultos mayores y huéspedes inmunocomprometidos. Por otra parte, el personal de... salud se beneficiaría considerando el mayor riesgo de exposición y la caída de la respuesta inmune con el tiempo. En base a lo señalado previamente se recomienda incorporar y
priorizar un segundo refuerzo al esquema de vacunación contra la COVID-19 del:
- Personal de salud independientemente de la edad
- Personas de 50 años o mayores
- Personas de 12 años o más con inmunocompromiso
A la vez, se progresará de manera escalonada y simultánea con la vacunación de segundo refuerzo del:
- Personal estratégico
- Personas de 18 a 49 años con factores de riesgo
Continuando en la estrategia de segundo refuerzo todas las personas a partir de los 18 años. Las personas gestantes con indicación de segundo refuerzo, se recomienda vacunas de plataforma de ARNm (Pfizer-BioNTech o Moderna)

Rabies has an enormous impact on both agriculture and conservation biology, but its greatest burden is undeniably on public health. As such, routine methods for rapid risk assessment after human exposures to rabies as well as applications for laboratory-based surveillance, production of biologicals ...and management of this infectious disease are critical. Given its mandate to improve human health and control disease among its Member States, WHO has led the production of this fifth edition of Laboratory techniques in rabies.

Time has seen management for Cystic Fibrosis (CF) advance drastically, most recently in the development of the disease-modifying triple combination therapy ivacaftor/tezacaftor/elexacaftor. There is currently limited evidence regarding both the global epidemiology of CF and access to this transforma...tive therapy - and therefore where needs are not being met. Therefore, this study aims to define gaps in access to CF treatment. The results show that a significant CF patient burden exists in countries where disease-modifying drugs are unavailable, and final figures are likely underestimates. This analysis shows the potential to improve rates of diagnosis and treatment for CF, so a higher percentage of patients receive the most effective triple combination treatment.
