The Veterans Administration (VA) Independent Study Course on Endemic Infectious Diseases of Southwest Asia (Afghanistan and Iraq) provides essential information for health care providers about the infectious disease risks in Southwest Asia, particularly in Afghanistan and Iraq. Physicians who travel to Afghanistan and Iraq as part of U.S., Canadian, and other Coalition military forces, or as participants in humanitarian programs, need to be familiar with the epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of the endemic infectious diseases of Southwest Asia. Western health care providers will also have to be alert for unusual infections among military personnel and veterans, travelers, relief workers, and others returning from this region. Emphasis is placed on diseases not typically seen in North America. After completing this independent study, participants will be able to: describe background data on Afghanistan and Iraq; identify the endemic infectious diseases of Southwest Asia; identify the infectious diseases of Afghanistan and Iraq of limited military importance; explain the recent outbreak of Norovirus infection in Afghanistan; describe long-term concerns related to endemic infectious diseases in Southwest Asia; describe the historical background of infectious diseases in Afghanistan and Iraq; identify the clinical findings associated with the infectious diseases of Southwest Asia; describe the diagnosis of infectious diseases in Southwest Asia; list the treatment regimens for infectious diseases found in Southwest Asia; and, describe prevention measures effective for infectious diseases in Afghanistan and Iraq. * This is a privately authored news service and educational publication of Progressive Management.

For over a quarter of a century, our news, educational, technical, scientific, and medical publications have made unique and valuable references accessible to all people.
