Jakarta, January 1, 2014

the Ministry of Health to identify any diseases in 2013 that will be threatened in 2014. Director General of Disease Control and Environmental Health (P2PL) Ministry of Health, Prof. Tjandra Yoga Aditama by electronic mail to the Center for Public Communication mentions a number of diseases that still would be a public health threat based on its source, namely Direct Communicable Diseases such as diarrhea, hepatitis (especially hepatitis A, B, C), AIDS and pneumonia. Among other animal-related diseases dengue, chikungunya, leptospirosis, bird flu, rabies, and malaria. Non-communicable diseases including hypertension, asthma, COPD, diabetes mellitus, heart disease, stroke, and cancer.

Prof. Tjandra Yoga also mentions the possibility of new diseases that should be on the alert in 2014. According to him, from time to time may be emerging viruses / bacteria in the new world, both completely new that was not there, or bacteria / virus that was already there but then mutated into a new form. "It can not be foreseen bacteria / viruses what appears to be new, and can not be predicted with certainty also know about which mutations will arise. means that the health of the world from time to time continue to conduct surveillance and observation", he explained.

As for how the potential spread of dangerous viruses such as H7N9 that could infect TKI diHongkong some time ago, and corona virus and other viruses threats in 2014. Are potentially widespread and still within safe limits?

Prof. Tjandra said so far, cases of H7N9 in humans is still limited in mainland China. Some cases outside mainland China such as Taiwan and Hong Kong had a history of travel to mainland China before. Disease control at the source, namely poultry, managed to reduce the number of infections in humans.

In general case of influenza virus infection (H7N9, H9N2, H1N1, etc.) affected the season. In winter, influenza cases have increased. Case MERS-CoV was first detected in Saudi Arabia in September 2012, spread to several countries such as the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Jordan, UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Tunisia, and Kuwait. Some cases happened outside Saudi Arabia has a history of previous trips to Saudi Arabia, while others are known to have a history of contact with a case (limited transmission between humans). Very few cases of MERS-CoV happened in connection with the Hajj season (recorded only one confirmed case at the pilgrims from around 2 million pilgrims from around the world) become interesting facts and show that the potential spread of the disease is not as big as previously thought.

anticipation of threat these diseases, there are 5 public anticipation to do, namely
