On October 11, 2021, the [[World Health Organization]] launched its “[[https://apps.who.int/iris/rest/bitstreams/1378263/retrieve|COP26 Special Report on Climate Change and Health]]”.((//COP26 special report on climate change and health: the health argument for climate action.// (2021, October 11). World Health Organization. https://web.archive.org/web/20220707173457/https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/9789240036727)) Accompanying the publication was a statement from the WHO Director of Environment, Climate Change and Health, Dr. [[Maria Neira]], in which she asserted that “[i]t has never been clearer that the climate crisis is one of the most urgent health emergencies we all face."((Johnson, C., & Walsh, D.

In an article for the [[21st Century Wire]], journalist [[Freddie Ponton]] argues that the report was used as a basis to kickstart the use of the One Health framework to bolster "climate action” through global health policies. Governments and policy makers were urged to "act with urgency" to address an alleged dual climate and health crisis.((Ponton, F. (2022, June 29). //One Health: Trojan Horse to Make Climate Change a “Global Health Emergency.”// 21st Century Wire. https://archive.ph/yDT3P)) He also noted that the tone and rhetoric surrounding climate change alarmism coming from some scientists and politicians had become "extremely religious". | In an article for the [[21st Century Wire]], journalist [[:Freddie Ponton]] argues that the report was used as a basis to kickstart the use of the One Health framework to bolster "climate action” through global health policies.

Key system modules include Human Cases module, Vector Surveillance module, Laboratory module, Outbreak module, Administrative module, and [[:Analysis, Visualization & Report]] (AVR) module with [[:Geographic Information System]] (GIS) capabilities. EIDSS manages case data, case plus disease specific investigation, aggregate data with corresponding sample, and laboratory data linked to cases. The system collects and distributes data, notifies on the events in near real-time, provides access from desktop, web and mobile devices, which allows it to link together different levels and ministries of a national disease surveillance network in a secure way. | Key system modules include Human Cases module, Vector Surveillance module, Laboratory module, Outbreak module, Administrative module, and [[:Analysis, Visualization & Report]] (AVR) module with [[:Geographic Information System]] (GIS) capabilities.

Electronic Integrated Disease Surveillance System provided near real time information flow that has been then disseminated to the appropriate organisations in a timely manner. It has been used for comprehensive analysis and visualisation capabilities including real time mapping of case events as these unfold enhancing decision making. | Electronic Integrated Disease Surveillance System provided near real time information flow that has been then disseminated to the appropriate organisations in a timely manner.

[[:Pathogen Asset Control System]] (PACS) has been used for accounting, management and control of biological agent stocks. Information on samples and strains of any kind throughout their entire lifecycle has been tracked in a comprehensive and flexible solution PACS. Both systems have been used in a combination and individually. Electronic Integrated Disease Surveillance System and PACS are currently deployed in the Republics of [[:Kazakhstan]], [[:Georgia]] and [[:Azerbaijan]] as a part of the [[:Cooperative Biological Engagement Program]] (CBEP) sponsored by the US [[:Defense Threat Reduction Agency]] (DTRA).
