Become an expert in tropical parasitic diseases in six weeks and acquire indispensable knowledge in today's globalized world"

Vector-borne parasitic diseases are human diseases caused by bacteria, parasites or viruses that are transmitted by living organisms, mostly arising from contact between animals and humans. These vectors can transmit infectious pathogens between people, or from animals to people. Many of these vectors are hematophagous insects that ingest the pathogenic microorganisms along with the blood of an infected carrier (person or animal) and subsequently transmit them to a new carrier. Often, once the vector is already infectious, it can transmit the pathogen for the rest of its life with each subsequent bite or ingestion of blood.

This type of pathology is more frequent in tropical and subtropical areas and in places with problems of access to drinking water and sanitation where the lack of sanitation provides a breeding ground for bacteria, parasites and the spread of viruses. For example, more than 700,000 deaths are recorded each year from diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, schistosomiasis, human African trypanosomiasis, leishmaniasis, Chagas disease and onchocerciasis.

The fastest growing disease of this type in the world is dengue fever, the incidence of which has increased 30-fold in the last 50 years. Therefore, its diagnosis is key, as well as the activation of control and prevention protocols so that it does not proliferate, since it can have fatal consequences at pandemic levels. 

Therefore, a specialization such as this postgraduate certificate on Parasitic Diseases Transmitted by Vectors is necessary to focus on research and the development of responses to prevent contagion. Thus, the student who attends this program will acquire the knowledge, protocols and skills necessary for the detection, diagnosis and treatment of this type of diseases. 

In addition, it is a 100% online program that provides the student with the ease of being able to study it comfortably, wherever and whenever he/she wants. You will only need a device with internet access to move one step further in your academic career. A modality according to the current times with all the guarantees to position the professional in a booming sector.
