Travel medicine is accepted as a unique subspecialty in medicine.
With more persons travelling to tropical and subtropical
destinations, travel medicine is becoming an increasing challenge
for the health care systems in many countries. New trends in
tourism, such as trekking in sub-Saharan Africa, expose tourist
travellers to unusual parasitic diseases. The global public health
community has been confronting the challenges of the emergence and
rapid world-wide spreading of new influenza virus strains, severe
acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), chikungunya virus,
drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and many other
pathogens. The present book provides an epidemiological based
country-to-country guide to disease prevention and treatment;
information on endemic diseases; necessary prevention guidelines,
public health indicators, and an update of recent disease
outbreaks.
