National Institute for Communicable Diseases
The National Institute for Communicable Diseases (NICD) is the national public health insitute for South Africa. It provides reference microbiology,virology,epidemiology, surveillance and public health research to support the government’s response to communicable disease threats.
The NICD is organised into functional Centres, bringing together expertise in both reference microbiology and epidemiology to enable an intergrated public health response to communicable disease threats.
The NICD primarily supports the programmes of the National and Provincial Departments of Health. As well as national support, the NICD also provides public health services such as collaborating laboratory or regional reference laboratory functions for global programmes of the World Health Organisation (WHO)
The NICD has established co-operatives agreements with partner national public health institutions such as the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and NIH/NIAID of the USA, the European Centre for Disease Control (ECDC) and the Health Protection Agency (HPA) of the United Kingdom, as well as other internationally recognised public health insitutions.

Perubahan iklim dapat mempengaruhi distribusi vektor malaria. Kami berfokus secara khusus pada bagaimana vektor yang resisten terhadap insektisida terpengaruh vektor yang rentan terhadap insektisida.
Malgré les perturbations, les programmes nationaux de lutte contre le paludisme ont fait preuve d'une résistance impressionnante.
There have been disruptions. But national malaria control programmes have shown impressive resilience.
Many infections, including bacterial, fungal and viral infections can lead to sepsis and septic shock.
In hospitals, infection prevention and control cannot be met without a hygienically clean, and safe environment that has an adequate supply of clean running water.
As the Earth warms up the malaria vector will develop faster, allowing them to breed faster, bite more frequently and expand into formerly unsuitable habitats.
There are many reasons that malaria is so persistent in Africa. Four of them are poverty, human movement, resistance and climate change.
Marginalised or minority groups seem to suffer the most from heat-related deaths and disease.

For a malaria vaccine to have an impact, health promotion is key. Awareness campaigns must address safety concerns and emphasise expected positive impacts.
It is estimated that half of world’s population is at risk of being infected by an arbovirus.
The spread of this urban malaria vector species threatens the gains made against malaria and the achievement of malaria elimination.
Repeated resurgences of SARS-CoV-2 transmission are expected in the years to come.
The displacement of people and overcrowding that often results from flooding provide optimal conditions for outbreaks of respiratory and gastrointestinal illness.
Insecticide resistance is a growing threat to malaria control efforts globally. It is, thus, important to keep a close eye on vector mosquito populations in affected areas.
South Africa is one of the few malaria-endemic countries in Africa that did not see a major upsurge in malaria cases caused by COVID-related disruptions.
A pesar de la pandemia, las disparidades y las estructuras de poder desiguales en la salud mundial siguen intactas. Será difícil afrontar nuevos desafíos globales, como el calentamiento global, si no cambia el sistema.
Apa yang kita sebut nyamuk sebenarnya adalah 3500 jenis serangga yang berbeda, dan mereka semua berperilaku berbeda.
It’s a huge cause for concern that, two years into the pandemic, the disparities and unequal power structures in global health are still intact.
