Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The recent outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 has, on the one hand, put infectious diseases (especially non-pediatric ones) back in the spotlight and, on the other, highlighted how they now form part of a world marked by non-communicable diseases: it is no coincidence that there has been talk of a syndemic. This entails a double impact, both clinical and healthcare-related, in terms of public health. In an increasingly clinically focused world, where combining health, healthcare, and clinical outcomes has become essential, the allocation of resources is fundamental. At the same time, we can no longer ignore the influence of gender in the therapeutic pathway, both as a positive and negative prognostic factor.
For this reason, I encourage you to send us your studies on infectious diseases and public health, especially if they include a stratification of patients by sex and age, combining the clinical aspect with an assessment of healthcare impact, even if only in summary form or at least as a projection/forecast.
