Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS), having a high demise rate, which radiate from the Middle East. Novel Coronavirus is the causative living being for MERS and (2019-nCoV) was recognized infection by Chinese experts on January 7. On December 31, 2019, the WHO China Country Office was educated regarding instances of pneumonia of obscure etiologic (obscure reason) identified in Wuhan City, Hubei Province of China. Besides, MERS-CoV first found in dromedary camels and in bats, people. Proof recommends that animals are acting as host for MERS-CoV and transmitting the malady to people. Till the finish of November 2019, an aggregate of 2494 lab instances of MERS, were recorded which incorporates 858 deaths around the world. At present, no drug or immunization is accessible for MERS. As we knew that prevention is better than cure, taking precautions before attacking of the disease is the best way of preventing disease.

NITI Aayog undertook this novel exercise on the assessment of the performance of District Hospitals across the country for the financial year 2017-18 in collaboration with the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, NABH and WHO Country Office for India. The assessment framework covers 10 Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) across the domains of Structure and Output. A total of 707 district hospitals across all States and Union Territories participated in the performance assessment. The framework classifies hospitals in three categories namely Small Hospitals (less than or equal to 200 beds), Mid-sized Hospitals (between 201-300 beds) and Large Hospitals (more than 300 beds). Three top-performing district hospitals in each of the hospital categories across the 10 KPIs were identified and their best practices collected and documented. In all, 75 district hospitals across 24 States and Union Territories emerged as top performers on indicators ranging from availability of beds, medical and paramedical staff, core health and diagnostic testing services to outputs such as bed occupancy rate and number of surgeries per surgeon etc. We believe that this country-wide assessment of district hospitals will serve as a valuable resource for them to learn best practices from each other in a spirit to improve their performance. It will also provide an opportunity to showcase progress.

: During the past two decades, multiple viral epidemics have emerged, including the epidemics of H1N1 influenza in 2009 and the Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-CoV) in 2002 - 2003. Moreover, the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV) was initially recognized in Saudi Arabia in 2012. Recently, cases of another lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) were discovered in Wuhan, Hubei province, China, on December 31st 2019, and reported to the WHO country office in the country. Studies in the field have referred to the identification of first symptomatic people in early December 2019. Since experts in the field could not determine the causative agent of the disease, they mistakenly categorized the first reported cases as pneumonia of unknown etiology (PUE). Therefore, the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (China CDC), as well as local CDCs, arranged a full outbreak investigation plan, ascribing the etiology to a newly discovered virus of the coronavirus (CoV) family (i.e., the causative agent of COVID-19).

The IDB has been experimenting with the Scenario Planning methodology since 2019 in order to challenge and innovate its approach to strategic planning, as well as to enhance the agility with which it anticipates and adapts for the delivery of its mission. Belize was identified as a prime candidate that would benefit from testing and deployment of the Strategic Planning Exercise. This methodology will complement the preparation cycle work of the Country Strategy of the IDB with Belize for the period 2022-2026. It is also expected to challenge the traditional process by exploring uncertainty in the contextual environment, but more specifically, by considering those factors which may influence the IDBs work, but which are out of IDBs control. This paper presents two Scenarios for Belize's future towards 2030, as well as the process involved in developing these scenarios. The scenarios are dissected to identify their most salient themes and are followed by a discussion of potential implications, should the scenarios materialize. Also considered are steps the country may introduce presently in order to be better prepared for potential challenges and how the IDB, through the Country Office, may support building Belize's resilience for such scenarios.

In India, a National Framework for Malaria Elimination (NFME) has been developed and launched on 11 February 2016 align with the Global Technical Strategy (GTS) for malaria elimination 2016-2030. Malaria elimination will be carried out in a phased manner. In accordance with the NFME, National Strategy Plan for malaria elimination 2017-2022 has been developed by National Vector Borne Disease (NVBDCP), MoH & FW, Govt. of India in collaboration with WHO Country Office India and launched in July 2017. The country has made significant improvement in the malaria situation in recent years. Reported malaria cases were reduced by 49 % and deaths by 50% in 2018 compared to 2017. However, India and ten countries in Africa contribute approximately 70% of the world’s malaria cases and deaths. These countries adopted the “High Burden to High Impact (HBHI) approach”. HBHI has four response elements: (i) Political will to reduce malaria deaths; (ii) Strategic information to drive impact, (iii) Better guidance, policies and strategies, and (iv) A coordinated national malaria response. India has adopted this approach in May 2019 to further accelerate and sustain the progress in the states with high malaria burden. Initially, HBHI approaches are being adopted by NVBDCP with the support of WHO in four high burden states namely Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, West Bengal and Madhya Pradesh. During the first phase, an in-depth situation analysis on malaria in these states have been conducted using the tools provided by WHO. Key features of adaptation of HBHI approaches in India and detail analysis of one state Madhya Pradesh are presented in the article.
