Sailing the choppy waters of pandemic disease
SPAR

https://t.me/med1917
Pandemic respiratory disease is the stormy sea of clinical medicine. Like sailors,
we know that choppy waters lie ahead, but we cannot predict their exact timing
or nature. To prepare a boat for the tempestuous waters, the mast is key; without
it the sails are unsupported and progress will flounder. The mast of pandemic
influenza is a tall, vertical
swell, and allows sailors to climb up high to see what lies on the horizon. When
preparing for pandemic influenza, we must make for ourselves a
fit for the storm ahead:
• Surveillance, planning, and communication: worldwide influenza virological sur-
veillance has been conducted through the
alert mechanism for viruses with pandemic potential and defines methodologies for assessing antiviral susceptibility. Cooperation between international
and national public health bodies is required for an understanding of clinical
characteristics and disease spread. Communication to the individual (public and
social media) is needed with advice about self- isolation, when and how to seek
medical help, personal hygiene (
• Protect: vaccine development and production capacity (stockpiling), adequate
personal protective equipment (apron, gloves, well- fitting mask), antiviral administration according to robust evidence and susceptibility.
• Animals: limiting/ eliminating the animal reservoir of virus by culling, restricting
animal movement and trade, vaccination of livestock.
• Research: virus characteristics, disease severity predictors, epidemiological
risk factors, antiviral development, targeting of treatment and vaccination,
increased- spectrum vaccines with longer- lasting immunity, eective healthcare
worker protection, evidence- based social distancing measures.

Adherence
Adherence to ART is associated with drug resistance, disease progression, and
death. Adherence support should be integral to
Assess Ask about adherence in a non- judgemental way. Do not blame. Explain the
reasoning behind your questions. Is non- adherence due to practical problems or
healthcare beliefs? Be ready to address both. What help would your patient like?
Intervene Normalize the situation— doubts and concerns about ART are common.
Find time for discussion/ information. Address concerns. Simplify the dosage
regimen (single tablet regimens, eg Atripla®), oer a multicompartment medication system. Link the taking of medication to a regular daily activity. Discuss side

treatment as prevention.
• Rapid, accurate, and low- cost diagnosis and monitoring.
• Standardization and simplification of ART regim ens.
• Evid ence- based ART to prevent the use of sub- standard protocols which com-
promise treatment and lead to the emergence of drug- resistant strains.
