Surveillance
Emergency Committee on microcephaly,
other neurological disorders and Zika virus
2 September 2016 — The fourth meeting of the Emergency Committee (EC) on Zika
and microcephaly convened by the Director-General under the International Health
Regulations (2005) regarding microcephaly, other neurological disorders and Zika
virus was on 1 September 2016. The Committee agreed that Zika virus infection and
its associated congenital and other neurological disorders continues to be a
Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC).
Mapping social science research for Zika virus response
29 August 2016 — Social science research is an essential part of effective risk communication and community engagement for responding effectively to the ongoing Zika outbreak, as it is the case for any epidemic or pandemic. This interactive map allows you to gain an overview of such research to input into the response.
Knowledge Attitudes and Practice (KAP) surveys and other social science research allows responders to rapidly obtain valuable and insightful information in order to tailor interventions to better address people’s needs at community level, thereby contributing to the overall public health response to Zika virus and its potential complications
