  • More about Disease Control Priorities (Volume 6): Major Infectious Diseases

The HIV/AIDS, STIs, TB and Malaria volume explores the cost-effectiveness of prevention, treatment, and management of major infectious diseases endemic in low-resource settings. Treatment as disease prevention, specialised health delivery platforms for certain populations, balancing access to TB prevention and treatment, and malaria elimination are among the topics highlighted.

Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 300 pages

Publisher: World Bank Publications


Infectious diseases are the leading cause of death globally, particularly among children and young adults. The spread of new pathogens and the threat of antimicrobial resistance pose particular challenges in combating these diseases.

Major Infectious Diseases identifies feasible, cost-effective packages of interventions and strategies across delivery platforms to prevent and treat HIV/AIDS, other sexually transmitted infections, tuberculosis, malaria, adult febrile illness, viral hepatitis, and neglected tropical diseases.

The volume emphasises the need to effectively address emerging antimicrobial resistance, strengthen health systems, and increase access to care. The attainable goals are to reduce incidence, develop innovative approaches, and optimize existing tools in resource-constrained settings.
