Managing epidemics: key facts about major deadly diseases
Epidemics and pandemics of infectious diseases are occurring more often, and spreading faster and further than ever, in many different regions of the world.

A potentially fatal combination of newly-discovered diseases, and the re-emergence of many long-established ones, demands urgent responses in all countries. Planning and preparation for epidemic prevention and control are essential. The purpose of the Managing epidemics handbook is to provide expert guidance on those response. Building on the first edition, the second edition provides concise and basic up-to-date knowledge with which ...

SARS-CoV-2 antigen-detecting rapid diagnostic tests
This World Health Organization (WHO) guide provides detailed insights into the deployment and use of rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) for SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19. It serves as a complementary resource to WHO's global policy guidelines on COVID-19 testing, drawing on experiences from other disease control programs such as HIV and malaria. The guide covers the essential considerations for implementing antigen rapid diagnostic tests (Ag-RDTs), including their role in testing strategies, performance expectations, and integration into national response plans. It targets a diverse audience, including health ministries, donors, healthcare providers, and civil society organizations. The emphasis is on the urgent rollout of Ag-RDTs, underscoring the need for strict protocols, quality assurance, and monitoring to ensure effective use in various healthcare settings.
WHO guidelines for plague management
These guidelines provide recommendations on the use of rapid diagnostic tests for the various forms of plague in plague-endemic areas and during outbreaks. They also provide recommendations on the choice of antimicrobial medicines for the different forms (including whether fluoroquinolones should be introduced as a first-line medicine of choice) and the use of personal protective equipment for the safe handling of potentially infectious human remains. The guidelines are intended to serve as the basis for developing national guidelines, taking into account the available resources and other determinants in each country. They are aimed at clinicians practising in primary and secondary care, public health professionals preparing for or responding to outbreaks, and policy- and decision-makers.
Systems thinking: strengthening health systems in practice
As health systems all over the world not only recover from COVID-19, but learn to adapt to contexts of increasing uncertainty amidst persistent challenges, it is clear that systems thinking has never been needed more. Systems thinking is an approach to problem-solving that views problems as part of a wider dynamic system. It recognizes and prioritizes the understanding of linkages, relationships, interactions and interdependencies among the components of a system that give rise to the system’s observed behaviour. Systems thinking is a philosophical frame, and it can also be considered a method with its own tools. Identifying ways in the short and long-term which strengthen health systems i...
