Africa CDC Non Communicable Diseases, Injuries Prevention and Control and Mental Health Promotion Strategy
recommended
Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) & injuries and mental health conditions constitute a serious impediment to achieving the vision of Agenda 2063 to build an integrated, prosperous, ... peaceful Africa driven by its own citizens. Each year, these conditions cause millions of premature deaths and disabled lives across Africa. These conditions also lead to annual economic loss of multiple billion US-Dollars. Their burden both in terms of disease morbidity/mortality and socio-economic impact is increasing.

The Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) Legal Framework comes before the Specialized Technical Committee on Health ... Drug Control for adoption and endorsement. The IPC Legal Framework is designed to guide Member States in the review and strengthening of laws and policies that support IPC at both the national level and in healthcare facilities. In developing this IPC Legal Framework, the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC)
is furthering its mandates to harmonize disease control and prevention policies and promote the prevention and control of diseases by building capacity of public health institutions in Members States.

The Africa Centres for Disease Control ... Prevention (Africa CDC) was established in 2017, after the west Africa Ebola virus disease outbreak. Upon creation, the
role of Africa CDC was to mandate strengthening of the capacity of public health institutions in Africa to prevent, detect, and respond to disease threats, based on science, policy, and data-driven interventions and programmes, as envisaged by the Abuja Declaration. The inaugural strategic plan was focused on building health systems for emergency preparedness and response. However, from its inception, the organisation recognised the concomitant need to comprehensively strengthen systems to prevent and manage noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) and injuries, and to face the neglected issue of mental health disorders. The division dedicated to these issues was conceptualised, but operationalisation was deferred to a future date.
24 September 2021. The vaccine has been authorized by the Chinese National Regulatory Authority (NRA) – the National Medicinal Product Administration (NMPA) – as well as other regulatory authorities. Because WHO has granted Emergency Use Listing (EUL) ... the COVID-19 Vaccine BIBP/ Sinopharm, the Africa Union and Africa CDC’s Regulatory Taskforce has endorsed the Emergency Use Authorization for the vaccine (see scenario #1) and the specification is 0.5ml/dose, 1 dose/vial; or 2 doses/vial; or 5 doses/vial. As such, African Union Member States are recommended to waive any review processes and rely directly on the WHO EUL via the AVAREF managed pathway described in Scenario #1.

Les Centres africains de contrôle et de prévention des maladies (Africa ...) ont pris connaissance des communiqués de presse concernant les résultats préliminaires d'un vaste essai clinique randomisé mené au Royaume-Uni, qui incluait la dexaméthasone, un corticostéroïde, parmi les médicaments utilisés pour le traitement des patients atteints de COVID-19. Les chercheurs ont rapporté que l'administration de dexaméthasone par voie orale ou injectable a permis de réduire d'environ un tiers la mortalité chez les patients COVID-19i qui nécessitaient une ventilation mécanique et d'environ un cinquième chez les patients nécessitant de l'oxygène. Depuis la publication de ces rapports médiatiques, les autorités sanitaires du Royaume-Uni et d'Afrique du Sud ont adopté la dexaméthasone pour le traitement des patients atteints de formes graves de COVID-19
