NO EMERGING? YES ZOONOTIC POTENTIAL? NO SIGNIFICANT SPREAD IN NAIVE POPULATIONS? YES EXCLUDE INCLUDE NO YES EXCLUDE INCLUDE Notification procedures Types of reports • Immediate notification of disease, infection or unusual epidemiological events • Weekly reports: follow-up to the immediate notification • Final report: • if the outbreaks have ended (event closed) • if the situation becomes endemic • Six-monthly report • Annual report Emerging Disease … a new infection resulting from the evolution or change of an existing pathogenic agent, a known infection spreading to a new geographic area or population, or a previously unrecognized pathogenic agent or disease diagnosed for the first time and which has a significant impact on animal or public health OIE Role in Early Warning, Confirmation, Surveillance • Unofficial information (including emerging, reemerging and zoonotic diseases) • Rumor tracking and informal discussion often precedes official reporting • Information from OIE Reference laboratories of confirmation using established standards • OIE component of FAO/WHO/OIE collaborative GLEWS project • Complemented by official notifications with complete (and ongoing) information on the epidemiologic situation and control measures taken • Developing new diagnostic assays and algorithms which can be validated and included in “living” Code and Manual • Reference Laboratories • 187 laboratories in 36 Member Countries or Territories on 100 diseases • Expertise on named disease(s) on the OIE lists • Identified international expert http://photos.news.wisc.edu OIE Reference Laboratories and Collaborating Centres* • 35 centres from 20 Member Countries or Territories on 33 topics • Expertise in a specific designated sphere of competence (epidemiology, risk analysis) * As of May 2009 http://www.oie.int • Collaborating Centres OIE Reference Laboratory Mandate Mandate: • to function as a centre of expertise and standardisation for a designated disease(s) or topics; • to store and distribute to national laboratories biological reference products and any other reagents used in the diagnosis and control of the designated disease(s) or topics; • to develop new procedures for diagnosis and control of the designated disease(s) or topics; • to gather, process, analyse and disseminate epizootiological data relevant to their speciality; • to place expert consultants at the disposal of the OIE OIE Reference Laboratory Mandate Additional contributions: • provision of scientific and technical training for personnel from Member Countries of the Office; • provision of diagnostic testing facilities to Member Countries • organisation of scientific meetings on behalf of the Office; coordination of scientific and technical studies in collaboration with other laboratories or organisations; publication and dissemination of any information in their sphere of competence which may be useful to Member Countries of the Office. OIE Reference Laboratory Reporting Responsibility …provision of diagnostic testing facilities to Member Countries: In the case of results that are confirmed positive for diseases that are reportable to OIE, the Reference Laboratory should immediately inform the OIE Delegate of the Member Country from which the samples originated as well as the OIE Headquarters World Distribution of OIE Reference Laboratories (as of May 2008) List of OIE Reference Laboratories http://www.oie.int/eng/OIE/organisation/en_listeLR.htm Each OIE Laboratory Twinning Project... • Is a link between OIE Reference Laboratory or Collaborating Centre (Parent) and national laboratory (Candidate) • Aims to improve expertise and diagnostic capacity with eventual aim of reaching OIE standards - Optimal goal is to achieve OIE Reference Laboratory designation • Should be sustainable once the project is over Extending the network of OIE capacity, expertise and standards through Laboratory Twinning • To provide regional support with better geographical coverage for diseases and topics that are a priority in a given region • Improved access for more countries to high quality diagnostics and expertise • Better scientific expertise allows members to: • Readily apply science-based guidelines and standards of OIE • To debate OIE scientific justification for standards on an equal footing with other Members (better representation) Approved and Active Twinning Projects • Italy - Russia;
