    The MDGs, or Millennium Development Goals, were a set of eight goals established by the United Nations in 2000, with a target deadline of 2015. Several of these goals were related to health, including:

    Goal 4: Reduce Child Mortality – the target was to reduce the under-five mortality rate by two-thirds between 1990 and 2015.
    Goal 5: Improve Maternal Health – the target was to reduce the maternal mortality ratio by three-quarters between 1990 and 2015.
    Goal 6: Combat HIV/AIDS, Malaria and Other Diseases – the targets included halting and reversing the spread of HIV/AIDS, achieving universal access to treatment for HIV/AIDS, and halting and reversing the incidence of malaria and other major diseases.
    Other health-related targets included achieving universal access to reproductive health, reducing the prevalence of malnutrition, and improving access to safe drinking water and sanitation.

    Since the deadline for the MDGs has passed, the United Nations has established a new set of goals, called the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which build on the progress made under the MDGs and aim to address new challenges. Many of the SDGs also include health-related targets.

    Behind these elements lies a series of basic objectives that should be formulated in national policies to launch and sustain primary healthcare (PHC) as part of a comprehensive health system and coordination with other sectors.

    1. Improvement in the level of health care of the community.
    2. Favorable population growth structure.
    3. Reduction in the prevalence of preventable, communicable, and other diseases.
    4. Reduction in morbidity and mortality rates especially among infants and children.
    5. Extension of essential health services with priority given to the underserved sectors.
    6. Improvement in basic sanitation.
    7. Development of the capability of the community aimed at self-reliance.
    8. Maximizing the contribution of the other sectors for the social and economic development of the community.
    9. Equitable distribution of health care– according to this principle, primary care and other services to meet the main health problems in a community must be provided equally to all individuals irrespective of their gender, age, and caste, urban/rural, and social class.
    10. Community participation-comprehensive healthcare relies on adequate numbers and distribution of trained physicians, nurses, allied health professions, community health workers, and others working as a health team and supported at the local and referral levels.
    11. Multi-sectional approach-recognition that health cannot be improved by intervention within just the formal health sector; other sectors are equally important in promoting the health and self-reliance of communities.
    12. Use of appropriate technology- medical technology should be provided that accessible, affordable, feasible, and culturally acceptable to the community.

    Natural history of disease refers to the progression of a disease process in an individual over time, in the absence of treatment. For example, untreated infection with HIV causes a spectrum of clinical problems beginning at the time of seroconversion (primary HIV) and terminating with AIDS and usually death. It is now recognized that it may take 10 years or more for AIDS to develop after seroconversion. Many, if not most, diseases have a characteristic natural history, although the time frame and specific manifestations of the disease may vary from individual to individual and are influenced by preventive and therapeutic measures.
    The process begins with the appropriate exposure to or accumulation of factors sufficient for the disease process to begin in a susceptible host. For an infectious disease, the exposure is a microorganism. For cancer, the exposure may be a factor that initiates the process, such as asbestos fibers or components in tobacco smoke (for lung cancer), or one that promotes the process, such as estrogen (for endometrial cancer).

    After the disease process has been triggered, pathological changes then occur without the individual being aware of them. This stage of subclinical disease, extending from the time of exposure to the onset of disease symptoms, is usually called the incubation period for infectious diseases, and the latency period for chronic diseases. During this stage, the disease is said to be asymptomatic (no symptoms) or inapparent. This period may be as brief as seconds for hypersensitivity and toxic reactions to as long as decades for certain chronic diseases. Even for a single disease, the characteristic incubation period has a range. For example, the typical incubation period for hepatitis A is as long as 7 weeks. The latency period for leukemia to become evident among survivors of the atomic bomb blast in Hiroshima ranged from 2 to 12 years, peaking at 6–7 years. Incubation periods for selected exposures and diseases vary from minute to decade.

    Although the disease is not apparent during the incubation period, some pathologic changes may be detectable with laboratory, radiographic, or other screening methods. Most screening programs attempt to identify the disease process during this phase of its natural history since intervention at this early stage is likely to be more effective than treatment given after the disease has progressed and become symptomatic.

    The onset of symptoms marks the transition from subclinical to clinical disease. Most diagnoses are made during the stage of clinical disease. In some people, however, the disease process may never progress to a clinically apparent illness. In others, the disease process may result in illness that ranges from mild to severe or fatal. This range is called the spectrum of disease. Ultimately, the disease process ends either in recovery, disability, or death.

    For an infectious agent, infectivity refers to the proportion of exposed persons who become infected. Pathogenicity refers to the proportion of infected individuals who develop the clinically apparent disease. Virulence refers to the proportion of clinically apparent cases that are severe or fatal.

    Because the spectrum of disease can include asymptomatic and mild cases, the cases of illness diagnosed by clinicians in the community often represent only the tip of the iceberg. Many additional cases may be too early to diagnose or may never progress to the clinical stage. Unfortunately, persons with inapparent or undiagnosed infections may nonetheless be able to transmit the infection to others. Such persons who are infectious but have subclinical diseases are called carriers. Frequently, carriers are persons with incubating disease or inapparent infection. Persons with measles, hepatitis A, and several other diseases become infectious a few days before the onset of symptoms. However, carriers may also be persons who appear to have recovered from their clinical illness but remain infectious, such as chronic carriers of the hepatitis B virus, or persons who never exhibited symptoms. The challenge to public health workers is that these carriers, unaware that they are infected and infectious to others, are sometimes more likely to unwittingly spread infection than are people with an obvious illness.

    The Epidemiologic Triangle
    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) defines an outbreak or epidemic as “the occurrence of more cases of disease, injury, or other health condition than expected in a given area or among a specific group of persons during a specific period.” When investigating how a disease spreads and how to combat it, the epidemiologic triangle can be an invaluable tool. The epidemiologic triangle is made up of three parts: agent, host and environment.

    Agent:
    The agent is the microorganism that actually causes the disease in question. An agent could be some form of bacteria, virus, fungus, or parasite.

    Host:
    The agent infects the host, which is the organism that carries the disease. A host doesn’t necessarily get sick; hosts can act as carriers for an agent without displaying any outward symptoms of the disease. Hosts get sick or carry an agent because some part of their physiology is hospitable or attractive to the agent.

    Environment:
    Outside factors can affect an epidemiologic outbreak as well; collectively these are referred to as the environment. The environment includes any factors that affect the spread of the disease but are not directly a part of the agent or the host. For example, the temperature in a given location might affect an agent’s ability to thrive, as might the quality of drinking water or the accessibility of adequate medical facilities.
