Emerging Trends In Infectious Disease and Its Management
Submission Abstract:
Despite the triumph of Antibiotics in the 20th century, the rise of infectious disease is beyond control with compelling recent evidence of COVID-19. WHO declares mpox virus a public health emergency of international concern in August 2024, yet another example of resurgence of infectious disease. The Plague, black death, smallpox epidemic, Cholera epidemic, Spanish flu, Asian flu, Hong Kong flu, HIV pandemic, SARS, H1N1 Influenza Pandemic, Ebola Virus Outbreak, Zika Virus Outbreak and Marburg Virus outbreak are some of the other challenging experiences in the human history. Infectious disorders affect the world-wide population, make the greatest impact on their health and cause large levels of mortality. It creates health and security challenges for the global community. On 15th April 2009, a novel swine-origin influenza A (H1N1) virus was identified and affected the United States and Canada. The most widespread coronavirus (COVID-19) infection was raised in November 2019 and affected globally with death cases of 7,010,681; and recovered cases of 675,619,811. In May 2022, the monkeypox outbreak appeared rapidly and spread across Europe, the USA, all six WHO regions, and 110 countries with registration of >100,000 cases and 112 deaths. Based on this global statistics and epidemiological survey addressing emerging trends of infectious disorders related knowledge and wisdom to overcome the global health challenges is essential. Emerging outbreaks of infectious diseases could be attributed to various reasons including the microbial resistance for existing treatment, environmental changes, human behavior, technological advances, urbanization, human animal-interface, biological threats, and pathogen evolution. Collaborative efforts are required by veterinarians, medical doctors, environmental scientists and other researchers to prevent and manage these infectious diseases with innovative approach of dealing e.g. treating drug resistant infections, Immunotherapies and monoclonal antibodies, CRISPR and gene-editing technologies and mRNA vaccine technologies. Social, economic and mental health disruption is one of the major concerns hence prevention and management of social, economic disruption and mental health challenges requires integrated health responses.
