Fungal and bacterial infections are a broad spectrum of study for pharmacy professionals. Learn all about them with this complete program”

Infectious diseases are the main cause of death and the reduction of life expectancy in the world. In 2016, of the total 56.4 million deaths worldwide, 33% were due to infectious diseases, 30% to cardiovascular diseases and 10% to cancer. The fight against disease will have two simultaneous fronts: infectious diseases and chronic non-communicable diseases. 

These factors, interacting with each other, have meant that we should not consider any part of the planet reasonably isolated from the rest, nor the appearance, reappearance or dissemination of imported or apparently eradicated infectious diseases in our environment to be impossible.

The complex international epidemiological situation so far this century, highlights the unprecedented need to improve the process of training and development of human capital, in order to increase the competence and performance of all pharmaceutical personnel required to meet the challenges involved in controlling and dealing with biological, hospital and public health emergencies, and that guarantee the quality and safety of health care for the population in any part of the world. This has been exemplified by the deliberate release of Bacillus anthracis spores as a weapon of bioterrorism to cause pulmonary anthrax in victims who inhaled them, the emergence of West Nile virus as a pathogen in the United States, the epidemic of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), the zoonotic spread of monkeypox in the United States, the threat of pandemic influenza, the Ebola epidemic in Africa, the emergence of yellow fever cases in Angola, coupled with the re-emergence of dengue and cholera, the emergence of new arboviruses in the Americas region, such as Chikingunya and more recently Zika, as well as morbidity from other endemic infectious diseases, such as HIV/AIDS, leptospirosis, tuberculosis, community-acquired pneumonia and the increase in antibiotic resistance with the development of multidrug-resistant bacteria.
