Course Description | This course explores the technical and programmatic characteristics of the communicable diseases most frequently encountered in international emergencies. Discussions will focus more on the epidemiological aspects of prevention and control and how these measures can be implemented in the exceptional circumstances that surround emergencies, rather than on etiological, diagnostic, and treatment considerations, although these will be mentioned as well. Particular emphasis will be put on community-based control and evaluation activities. Political, cultural, and economic characteristics of disease control will also be discussed. Classes will mix lecture, video presentations, group discussion, and case studies. |
