Anotace
An assessment of the world health situation in all its complexity, giving particular attention to infectious diseases. Compiled by the World Health Organization, the report combines health statistics with an analysis of the many factors that have shaped the current situation -and created an unprecedented crisis. By showing where we stand today in the fight to control infectious diseases, the report aims to help the world comprehend both the alarming implications of recent trends and the need for immediate action. Over 50 old and new diseases - from malaria, tuberculosis and cholera to AIDS, plague and the mysterious Ebola haemorrhagic fever -are profiled in terms of their incidence, causes, opportunities for control, and impact on health and socioeconomic development. The report opens with a profile of the state of world health at the end of 1995, including an analysis of global economic, political, social and demographic trends relevant to health in general and infectious diseases in particular. Also included are statistics on life expectancy, mortality by age group and sex, and causes of death and disease. Against this background, the report turns to an analysis of infectious diseases. General problems considered include the emergence of several new diseases, the spread of epidemics, a rise in antimicrobial resistance, and the growing number of hospital-acquired infections. The report repeatedly argues that the price of continued complacency will be higher yet. To show the way forward, it explains what WHO is doing to fight disease and foster development by combating these and many other problems. A final chapter, on charting the future, describes the precise actions needed to eradicate or eliminate diseases such as polio-myelitis, leprosy, neonatal tetanus, and guinea-worm infection, to tackle old diseases such as tuberculosis and cholera, and to cope with newer threats to health.
