Sepsis contributes significantly to preventable mortality and is the final common pathway to death for severe infectious diseases; it can also arise as a complication of injuries and non-communicable diseases.

It provides a values foundation for the objectives of COVID-19 vaccination programmes and links t...hose to target groups for vaccination.  This information is valuable to countries and globally while specific policies will be developed once vaccines become available.

                                                                Bonchial asthma is the most common chronic respiratory disease in the world. In Kenya, it has been estimated that about 7.5% of the Kenyan population, nearly 4 million people, are currently living with asthma. Many cases tend to be underdiagnosed and undertreated which leads to high levels of morbid...ity and avoidable deaths. The consequences of poorly controlled asthma, including physical, mental, social, and economic impacts, are magnified in the poor on account of poor access to asthma services and sub-optimal quality of those services. With these guidelines, Kenya's Ministry of Health aims to work towards embedding asthma care in Universal Health Care (UHC) to ensure that quality asthma services are available in primary care settings with
referral networks strengthened for those who may require secondary and tertiary care. These national asthma guidelines will also ensure that treatment for asthma is standardized in both the public and the non-state health care sector.

Resistant bacteria are spreading worldwide. In collaboration with partners in India, Tanzania, South Africa and Germany, we have investigated the causes and consequences of this spread.2 This Pharma-Brief Special presents the results. It examines the risks for humans, animals and the environment. It focuses on local problems and approaches, international interactions and the re-sponsibility of doctors, farmers and consumers.

Данная книга, написанная в форме вопросов и ответов, являетсяпервым  шагом  в  этом  направлении.  Я  надеюсь,  что  она  станет  доступной  длявсех специалистов, участвующих в борьбе с туберкулезом, организаторов здравоохранения и администраторов, ответственных за формирование и выполнение национальных программ борьбы с туберкулезом, а также всех медицинскихработников,  ежедневно  решающих  конкретные  задачи  борьбы  с  туберкулезомна  местах.

Both uncomplicated and severe infections are potentially curable  as  long  as  the  aetiological  agents  are  susceptible  to  the  ...antimicrobial  drugs.  The  rapid  rate  with  which  antimicrobial  agents  are  becoming  ineffective  due  to  resistance  acquired  as  a  result  of   unchecked  overuse and misuse threatens to undo the benefit of controlling infections. The evidence for resistant microorganisms,  many  times  to  more  than  a  single  antimicrobial  agent,  has  been  observed  globally.  In  Tanzania, there is evidence in the form of  few scattered studies conducted in different parts of  the country in  a  multitude  of   settings  including  health  care  facilities,  the  community,  domesticated  animals  and  wild  animals
