Abstract: |
The article discusses the importance of international collaboration and preparedness in managing infectious diseases and health emergencies. It focuses on the Infectious Disease Emergency Specialist (IDES) training program in Japan, which was established after the Ebola outbreak in West Africa. The IDES program provides comprehensive training to Japanese physicians in responding to health emergencies, including a second-year international training component. The article also highlights the National Emerging Special Pathogens Training and Education Center (NETEC) in the United States as a model for collaboration and coordination in managing infectious diseases. The collaboration between NETEC and IDES has facilitated knowledge exchange and best practices in handling special pathogens and has contributed to Japan's readiness for future health crises. The article emphasizes the importance of international cooperation and the establishment of robust healthcare networks to strengthen global health security. [Extracted from the article] |
