Infectious diseases remain the leading cause of death and disability in the world. In 2016, of the total 56.4 million deaths worldwide, 33% were due to infectious diseases, 30% to cardiovascular diseases and 10% to cancer. The fight against disease will have two simultaneous fronts: infectious diseases and chronic non-communicable diseases. 

Among the 17.3 million people who died from infections in 2016, the most frequent causes of death were lower respiratory infections (3.7 million), malaria (2.2 million), tuberculosis (1.3 million), diarrhea (1.4 million), and HIV/AIDS infection (1.1 million). The most important factors to consider in relation to infectious diseases are demographics, human behavior, technological and industrial development, economic variations in land use, intercontinental travelling and commerce, climate change, microbiotic adaptation and finally the disappearance or reduction of efficient public health measures. 

These factors, interacting with each other, have conditioned that we should not consider any part of the planet reasonably isolated from the rest, nor impossible the appearance, reappearance or dissemination of imported or apparently eradicated infectious diseases in our environment.  

The complex international epidemiological situation so far this century, exemplified by the deliberate release of bacillus anthracis spores, the emergence of West Nile virus, the epidemic of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), the zoonotic spread of smallpox, the threat of pandemic influenza, the Ebola epidemic in Africa, the emergence of cases of yellow fever, Dengue and Cholera, the emergence of new arbovirosis in the Americas region, such as Chikingunya and more recently Zika, together with morbidity from other endemic infectious diseases, such as HIV/AIDS, leptospirosis, tuberculosis, pneumonia and the increase in antibiotic resistance with the development of multi-resistant bacteria, highlight the unprecedented need to improve the process of training and development of human capital.
