Lack of funding associated with weak political commitment and fragile health systems has contributed to resurgence of diseases that were once almost eliminated; it has also led to poor reporting of cases. Proper diagnosis of disease allows for appropriate treatment and implementation of accurate prevention and control measures. Knowing the conditions that trigger and or perpetuate disease could assist in applying the right measures for prevention and control. Research, collaborations between various stakeholders, commitment from governments and non-governmental organisations are pillars of disease prevention and control. Disease prevention efforts through surveillance, mass treatment programs, active search for disease and choice for the right disease prevention measures are steps in the right direction. |
