В мае 2016 г. Всемирная ассамблея здравоохранения приняла первую Глобальную стратегию сектора здравоохранения (ГССЗ) по проблеме вирусных гепатитов. В ней б...ыла провозглашена цель к 2030 г. добиться элиминации вирусных гепатитов как угрозы общественному здоровью путем реализации (с достаточным уровнем охвата) пяти следующих основных вмешательств: иммунизация против гепатита B; профилактика передачи вируса гепатита B (ВГВ) от матери ребенку; обеспечение безопасности донорской крови и инъекций; принятие мер снижения вреда для людей, употребляющих инъекционные наркотики; предоставление услуг тестирования и лечения. Механизм ВОЗ по мониторингу и оценке в отношении вирусных гепатитов B и C соответствует подходу, ориентированному на результаты, который учитывает такие факторы, как контекст (распространенность инфекции), вкладываемые ресурсы, промежуточные и итоговые результаты (включая каскад мер профилактики, тестирования и лечения) и исходы (заболеваемость и смертность). Системы данных, необходимые для функционирования этого механизма, включают (i) эпиднадзор за ост-рыми гепатитами, случаями хронической инфекции и последствиями;* (ii) оперативные сведения, документирующие меры профилактики, тести-рования и лечения, которые включают каскад услуг медицинской помощи.

This policy brief examines the implications of COVID-19 and the government’s preventative measure for political stability,9 especially in the short to medium term. It argues that in the short term the disease and the preventative measures could make the country less vulnerable to organised politic...al violence and more vulnerable to riots. In the medium and long term, however, vulnerability to both types of violence could increase, depending on the capacity of political forces to instigate and manage conflict and on their willingness to work together.

Arbeit der Psychosozialen Zentren für Flüchtlinge und Folteropfer (PSZ): Dort soll ein sicherer Raum für Geflüchtete geschaffen werden, damit sie über ihre Erlebnisse und Erfahrungen sprechen und psychosoziale Beratung und Unterstützung erhalten können. Auf der Basis eines menschenrechtlichen... Ansatzes soll im Kontakt mit dem Hilfesystem PSZ und seinen Netzwerken zumindest ein Stück weit Gerechtigkeit hergestellt werden. Doch oftmals ist eben dieses Herstellen von Sicherheit und Gerechtigkeit das Problem: Wie kann ein solcher Raum in den PSZ geschaffen werden, wenn in der Gesellschaft zunehmend rassistische und geflüchtetenfeindliche Tendenzen präsent sind? Wenn Geflüchtete und ihre Unterkünfte angegriffen werden? Wie können auch die Mitarbeiter*innen in den Zentren eine rassismus- und diskriminierungskritische Beratungs- und Therapiepraxis ermöglichen, die Machtstrukturen im PSZ und eigene Privilegien und Positionen in der Gesellschaft reflektieren und abbauen?

A Global Analysis of Antimicrobial Resistance and Its Drivers.
Since the first State of the World’s Antibiotics report in 2015, antimicrobial resistance has leveled off in some high-income countries but continues to rise in many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where access to antibiotic...s has risen with increases in gross domestic product per capita.

These trends reflect both better access to antibiotics for those who need them and increases in inappropriate antibiotic use.
