Emerging respiratory infections threatening public health in the Asia-Pacific region: a position paper of the Asian Pacific Society of Respirology
In past decades, we have seen several epidemics of respiratory infections from newly emerging viruses, most of which originated in animals. These emerging infections, including severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV), Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) and t...

description |
In past decades, we have seen several epidemics of
respiratory infections from newly emerging viruses,
most of which originated in animals. These emerging
infections, including severe acute respiratory syndrome
coronavirus (SARS-CoV), Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) and the pandemic
influenza A(H1N1) and avian influenza (AI) viruses,
have seriously threatened global health and the economy. In particular, MERS-CoV and AI A(H7N9) are still
causing infections in several areas, and some clustering
of cases of A(H5N1) and A(H7N9) may imply future possible pandemics. Additionally, given the inappropriate
use of antibiotics and international travel, the spread of
carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria is also a
significant concern. These infections with epidemic or
pandemic potential present a persistent threat to public
health and a huge burden on healthcare services in the
Asia-Pacific region. Therefore, to enable efficient infection prevention and control, more effective international surveillance and collaboration systems, in the
context of the ‘One Health’ approach, are necessary. |
