3 The Concerns Trauma and infected wounds Diarrhoeal diseases Food poisoning Vaccinepreventable diseases Vectorborne diseases Lost lifelines for vital events e.g. childbirth and chronic illnesses Individual and social distress: rumours, mistakes, psychological trauma General accrued vulnerability Loss of health assets

4 WHO Strategy I Maximising the lifesaving and lifepreserving value of all humanitarian action: 1. Surveillance of disease. Ensuring that national authorities are able to provide early warning of potential health threats, as they emerge, verify them and trigger a prompt and correct response. Teams of experts have been deployed in countries through the GOARN, producing daily epidemiological updates. 2. Access to essential health care through assessing and responding to need. Collating information from reviews of the damage to the health service infrastructure and assessment of the health needs of affected populations analysing the results, together with Health Ministries, as quickly as possible, and making this available to all who seek to save lives and support recovery. 3. Essential public health. WHO provides technical guidance to national and international humanitarian actors, on health policy including the disposal of dead bodies, responses to disease outbreaks, maintaining water quality, dealing with excreta, sewage and chemical threats, managing chronic diseases, vaccination programmes and maintaining mental health. 4. Strengthening supply systems. Ensuring the supply of medicines, equipment, transport and other vital assets, so that all in need can access the services they require (immediate replacement of lost health assets, supply of emergency health kits, vital vaccines): many of these items are obtained locally, though when external donations are carefully matched to local need, they can make a vital difference. WHO has focused on enabling the incountry health groups to procure these items themselves. 5. Coordination of international health response. WHO helps coordinate and manage assistance and secure the best possible outcomes through briefing of donors, appropriate use of volunteer health workers, involvement of local communities (including women's organisations) and technical support including common Logistical Supply Systems that are used by the UN system and NGOs.

5 WHO Strategy II Reducing avoidable loss of lives and individual and collective illhealth Servicing ALL health actors A channel for the international concern with the health of the people in the affected countries An Organizationwide mobilization of capacities and expertise Shipping Essential Medicines, Cholera and Trauma kits into the affected countries (150 NEHK + 40 Diarrhoea kits) A strong regional team in New Delhi Liaison office Bangkok Stronger and expanded capacities for coordination and support, in Banda Aceh and Sri Lanka Open partnerships: with UNCT, NGO and UNDAC in the field and with UNICEF, IFRC, ICRC, IOM, and NGOs from Geneva What WHO is doing, planning and communicating to the media is on
