Disaster management
This document provides an overview of disaster management. It defines disasters and emergencies, and classifies disasters into natural and man-made types. The key aspects of disaster management are described as response, preparedness, and mitigation. Response measures include search and rescue, evacuation, and relief efforts. Preparedness involves long-term planning to strengthen capacity to manage disasters. Mitigation aims to lessen disaster impacts through measures like improved infrastructure and land use planning. Effective disaster management requires coordination across communication, health, security and other sectors at the local, national, and international levels.
EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS
This document discusses disaster management and provides details on various types of disasters. It covers:
1) Disasters are a global problem that occur daily and affect health, socioeconomic development, and the environment due to issues like pollution and climate change.
2) Disasters can cause ecological disruption, loss of life, and deterioration of health services. They have significant impacts on living conditions, economic performance, and the environment.
3) Effective disaster management requires preparation, planning, and coordination between various teams to minimize loss of life and damage from both natural and man-made disasters.
DISASTER MANAGEMENT.pptx
Disaster management involves five phases: mitigation, preparedness, impact, response, and rehabilitation. Disaster mitigation aims to lessen the effects of emergencies through measures like improving building structures. Disaster preparedness requires resources like money, manpower, and materials as well as public education programs. During disaster impact and response, search and rescue operations occur along with first aid, triage, and relief efforts. Rehabilitation focuses on rebuilding infrastructure for water, food, sanitation, and disease control. Disasters increase disease transmission risks through overcrowding, water contamination, and interrupting health services.
Disaster
Disasters can be natural or human-made events that cause widespread damage and loss of life. Natural disasters include floods, earthquakes, hurricanes, and wildfires. Human-made disasters are caused by events like industrial accidents, transport accidents, and terrorism. When a disaster occurs, it is important to conduct search and rescue operations, provide first aid and medical treatment, and prevent disease outbreaks. The long-term goals are rehabilitation and rebuilding infrastructure to restore normal living conditions. Proper disaster management requires being prepared through risk assessment, planning response and recovery, and mitigating impacts.
Disaster management
A disaster can be defined as any occurrence that cause damage, ecological disruption, loss of human life, deterioration of health and health services on a scale, sufficient to warrant an extraordinary response from outside the affected community or area.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
