Infectious diseases are the leading cause of death globally, particularly among children and young adults. The spread of new pathogens and the threat of antimicrobial resistance pose particular challenges in combating these diseases. Major Infectious Diseases identifies feasible, cost-effective packages of interventions and strategies across delivery platforms to prevent and treat HIV/AIDS, other sexually transmitted infections, tuberculosis, malaria, adult febrile illness, viral hepatitis, and neglected tropical diseases. The volume emphasizes the need to effectively address emerging antimicrobial resistance, strengthen health systems, and increase access to care. The attainable goals are to reduce incidence, develop innovative approaches, and optimize existing tools in resource-constrained settings.

Humans coexist with millions of harmless microorganisms, but emerging diseases, resistance to antibiotics, and the threat of bioterrorism are forcing scientists to look for new ways to confront the microbes that do pose a danger. This report identifies innovative approaches to the development of antimicrobial drugs and vaccines based on a greater understanding of how the human immune system interacts with both good and bad microbes. The report concludes that the development of a single superdrug to fight all infectious agents is unrealistic.

Infectious disease (ID) is a constant concern for pharmacy clinicians, with far too few specialists to meet the demand. That means that while more and more pharmacists are seeking the added qualification in infectious disease along with other Board Certifications, many clinical pharmacists have to meet a higher standard as de facto ID specialists. Further, treatment of infectious disease involves a good deal of grey area, which means that even the experts need a way to verify their mastery Now, Infectious Disease Pharmacotherapy Self Assessment, by Lea Eiland and Diane Ginsburg, bring you thorough and relevant cases where questions are delivered with varying degrees of difficulty, allowing you to truly gauge your level of understanding of complex ID pharmacotherapy problems. Three levels of difficulty offers users a way to assess their mastery of ID topics.
