Globalization of infectious diseases

The infectious diseases are a global problem and these days there is few efficiency of the measures of control because of the governments. This problem appears most of the times in developing countries; nevertheless, it’s also a problem in developed countries.

Among the most frequent infectious diseases that we can mention are: the infections of respiratory tract, the HIV, the diseases diarreicas, the tuberculosis, the malaria, the infections of sexual transmission, the meningitis and the fastidiousness. These diseases are generated by factors just as the overpopulation of cities, the massive migration and instead of decrease they are more in force.

 These diseases are not exclusive of a region of the world. The globalization and the availability of means of transport allow that the infectious agents cross big distances causing the contagion to many persons.

As a matter of fact the lack of a managing adapted on the part of the governments and a safety problem more that of public health, these diseases can destroy the economies of the countries because these will increase the problem of the unemployment and reduce the social stability.

Finally, to reduce the increase of infectious diseases, the governments must give the importance needed of enable a preventive culture in all the social levels in order to stop and to mitigate as far as possible the risks derived from the globalization.
