Infectious disease is a problem that doesn’t respect ethnic, social position or geographic location; it can either affect developed and undeveloped countries. For undeveloped countries the problem could have a major impact because of lack of institutions and procedures to help people infected by an epidemic. In the other hand, developed countries can support more easily the advance of an epidemic by affording new drugs and procedures to eliminate an infection.
Nowadays, modern transportation, immigration, and unrestricted borders allow people, animals, and other different species that carry diseases, and easily moved from one country to another and spread it pretty fast. Keeping in mind that one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide are epidemics. Trying to stop this technological and individual advantages, reduced the increasing number of infections worldwide , but still the need of better and more strong actions to eliminate completely the pandemics around the world.
Safer food , water, better housing, better nutrition, and better sanitary conditions, all that together, and also the use of vaccines are some of the main factors of stopping increasing infections around the world. They´re still countries that can’t afford this kind of treatment, so they depend on international organization to help deal with the problem, so is also important to maintain and support international cooperation.
Cooperation should be the key to provide better response for a pandemic, the fact that governments around the world have the responsibility of providing better health services and better social structure to stop infectious diseases, this shouldn’t be it, governments need to do more, also for developed countries that experiment with vaccines and other types of cures, they all have to set their experiments for free, to provide the whole world better treatment and better cure.
