Abstract:On 29 October 2000, the World Health Organization (WHO) Regional Commission for the Certification of Poliomyelitis Eradication in the Western Pacific certified the WHO Western Pacific Region as free of indigenous wild poliovirus. This status has been maintained to date: wild poliovirus importations into Singapore (in 2006) and Australia (in 2007) did not lead to secondary cases, and an outbreak in China (in 2011) was rapidly controlled. Circulation of vaccine derived polioviruses in Cambodia, China and the Phi… Show more

“…Inhibition of patients' body fluids is carried out through wound dressing, using surgical mask if the patient can tolerate, using a waterproof cover to cover the patient, collecting the spilled fluid around by placing an absorbent cloth on it, using 10% sodium hypochlorite solution for 10 minutes, collecting the secretion and putting it in the bag Category A for infectious waste [10].…”

“…The important thing is that advanced life support measures in these patients are only limited to oral and sublingual administration (For example, anti-vomiting drugs). Creating intravenous open line is done only for those who have signs of shock, or transfer them to the hospital for more than 20 minutes [10].…”
Introduction: Biological threats are one of the greatest dangers that threaten national security of different countries. Ebola haemorrhagic fever is one of these threats and there is no guideline that helps us to deal with suspected cases in Emergency Medical Services (EMS) in Iran.

“…In view of the extensive surveillance and highly qualified laboratory diagnosis activities in Japan, the National Committee for the Certification of Poliomyelitis Eradication of Japan reported a polio-free status (no indigenous transmission of wild poliovirus and VDPV) in Japan and the Regional Commission for the Certification of Poliomyelitis Eradication in the Western Pacific Region declared polio-free in the region, including Japan, in November 2000 [26][27][28].…”

“…The last polio case due to indigenous type 1 wild poliovirus in the WHO Western Pacific Region was identified in Cambodia in 1997 [26,102]. In that same year, a large outbreak of hand, foot, and mouth disease, including cases with fatal neurological diseases, primarily due to another neurovirulent enterovirus, enterovirus 71 (EV71), was reported in Malaysia.…”
