Dear ISTM Friends and Colleagues,

Issue 5 is out, and devoted to emerging diseases in the context of travel medicine. 

  • What is the risk of Ross River to emerge as "the next Zika"? 
  • Has Zika moved beyond the Americas? 
  • How did chikungunya spread via air travel? 
  • What is the the call for action to address the MERS crisis? 
  • How do we protect health care and humanitarian aid workers going to Ebola areas? 
  • How does climate change facilitate emerging infectious diseases? 
  • What about non-communicable diseases as a result of air pollution? 
  • For those with more interest in clinical care: If a returning traveller were to be diagnosed with severe yellow fever, how do I treat such patient? 
  • Does chikungunya ever need to be treated in the intensive care? 

Enjoy your reading.
