Abstract

Health services are important lifelines of a community any time and this role is more pronounced during times of disasters. Evidence from various parts of the world presents examples of disaster-induced damage to hospitals and failure of health services at times of need. The impact of disasters-induced damage to health care is three-dimensional: health, social and economic. Damage to health care facilities apart from delaying and complicating relief measures also compromise the achievement of planned national and global health and related goals. The indirect and long-term costs of damage to health sector are greater than direct and immediate costs, compounding the disastrous consequences on the economy. The increasing invasion of nature spaces, climate change and urbanisation are bound to aggravate more natural hazards in future. So a resilient health care system is an immediate necessity for all global states. This paper discusses the international and national endeavours towards a resilient health-care system and analyses the strategies to promote safe hospitals in future.

Abstract

Background: A cluster of suspected shigellosis was reported from health center in Pemagatshel district to Royal Center for Disease Control on 14th May 2012. The investigation was done to determine the cause and risk factor for the outbreak so that appropriate control and prevention measures can be implemented.Methods: A descriptive study was used for the outbreak investigation. The food items and drinks served to boarding students were collected from the mess in-charge in order to assess their risk for the outbreak. The kitchen and its premises were inspected to study the likely contamination by rodents and other animals. The water and stool specimens were tested in the laboratory to identify all possible enteric pathogens.Results: 82 boarding students were affected with an overall attack rate of 28% (82/294). Diarrhea was the predominant symptom followed by abdominal pain and headache. The onset date of the cases varied between 11th and 18th May, 2012. Shigella species was isolated from stool specimens that showed resistant to amoxicillin, nalidixic acid, chloramphenicol and sulfamethoxazole. Water specimen collected from source, distribution reservoir and tap water at school were found grossly contaminated.Conclusion: The outbreak was caused by novel strain of Shigella species which was not detected earlier in Bhutan. The promotion and provision of boiled water will greatly reduce the incidence of shigellosis especially in boarding facility.
