Global and/or National Health Situations

Environmental control measure such as ultra violet radiation has been introduced in
various health care facilities. This preventive measure has been extensively explored in the
medical, legislative and public forums. Tuberculosis remains one of the leading infectious
diseases worldwide, despite the efforts to identify and treat infected patients. It is a serious
public health threat in developing countries such as South Africa, especially among the
destitute, groups of immigrants, inmates and people infected with the human
immunodeficiency virus. In this article, I do agree on how the tuberculosis are transmitted
easily from an individual to another individual. As for the evidence bases practice scenario, for
example, in a hospital setting, patients lie in bed much of the time. The direction of exhalation
jet from a standing or seated person is much stronger than that generated from lying patient.
The last thing a patient wants when going to a hospital for treatment is a hospital-acquired
infection. We, nurses, play a significant role in helping to prevent illness. This includes keeping
the healthcare environment clean, wearing personal protective clothing, using barrier
precautions and practicing correct hand washing.

It will affect or develop the public health scenario in the Philippines in the sense that
since tuberculosis can easily transmit, just by using the same utensils it will immediately be
transmitted. One of its cause also is the environmental sanitations in the surroundings. There
are also raised alert on the case of tuberculosis. In this article, they were experimenting on
the potential benefits and harm brought by the use of UV radiation in transmission of
tuberculosis and concluded that there are still existing gaps in proving beyond any reasonable
doubt that ultraviolet radiations absolutely prevent the spread of tuberculosis. In South Africa
they were installing UVGI in accompany by ignored medical side effects. The key question
remains that there is a need to demonstrate the absolute role of UVGI in the background of
the pyramid controls to prevent health care associated TB infection.

By using a technology, it could be beneficial in the country and its constituents since it
will help us make the workload efficient and quick. That we would be able to help dozens of
people more by using technology. On the other hand, having tuberculosis, it may be acute or
chronic, is not beneficial to constituents it may alter their health, the money and etc. Some of
the individuals with tuberculosis lead to death in the sense that they could not have a proper
check-up due to financial problem. In our country, the spread of tuberculosis is very dangerous
since it was transmitted by an individual to another individual. The tuberculosis prevalence is
high among the high risk groups in which this situation leads to substantial socio-economic
losses to the country.

Millennium Development Goals for Health

Health has been recognized as central to international development for more than 20
years, and major efforts have been made to reduce morbidity and mortality either universally,
or through a focus on specific population subgroups. The MDG galvanized attention,
resources and accountability on a small number of health concerns of low and middle-income
countries with unprecedented results. This review examines the evidence based for the
current health-related proposals in relation to disease burden and the technical and political
feasibility of interventions to achieve the target. I do agree on the said journal it is because it
aids the health in shifting the focus to preventive approaches to a far broader agenda. These
goals will be successfully met in which they are to fight poverty.

Millennium Development Goals could affect the public health scenario in the
Philippines by ensuring the health facilities are improving from the barangay program health
center to rural unit to community health center and up to provincial health hospitals. The
delivery of quality health services lies greatly in the quantity, as well as, quality of HRH that
the Philippines have. Having innovative technologies has a great help in improving the
qualities of health here in our country. It would be a lot easier for the physicians as well as the
clients or patients as well. In this juncture, it wouldn’t be hard for them in getting check-ups
and such.

This implementation demands a qualitative shift for global health as much as

quantitative one. Achieving the health goal will require leadership beyond the health sector
and greater coordination across sectors. This raises the question of the extent to which the
current global and national health architecture is fit-for-purpose. In our view, there are major
deficiencies. In the same way that the OWG has taken the MDG’s ‘out of isolation’ we now
need to take the health sector out of isolation with more focus on illness prevention and
promotion of well-being, and more collaboration with other sectors that influence health and
illness outcomes- including, importantly new approaches to the curb the “profit-driven”
determinants of illness. Implementation will require a great deal of new investment. The new
goal and targets may be achievable if we get real but about prevention rather than relying on
the fallback of the treatment. For major global causes of premature death and disability,
prevention will require fundamentally rethinking how we approach the commercial
determinants of illness and “profit driven diseases” it will also demand a rethink of our
approach to the development and pricing of vaccines and drugs. The SDG process offers an
opportunity to reimagine global health and its centrality to sustainable development. We must
now offer a credible game plan on how to deliver it so as to advance human dignity, equity
and sustained well-being. In our view, this will require nothing less than a paradigm shift in
global health.
