The 3 organisations drew up a list of DISEASES THAT ARE INTEREST TO ALL 3 ORGANISATIONS NOT EXHAUSTIVE
Clearly some of these diseases are more of a priority for different organisations. WHO particularly interested in haemorrgahic disease
Also includes
new and emerging diseases
significant epid events
Events of UNKNOWN AETIOLOGY
 *diseases for which trend analyses and forecasting will be emphasized

7. 3 organisations gather data through their separate tracking systems – this includes reports from country representatives, experts, laboratories and from scanning media reports
Through the GLEWSs platform this data is shared in a COINFIDENTIAL MANNER
OIE will work with the OIE DELEGATE towards confirmation of the event – once confirmed officially the information is shared
JUST OVER 50% of RUMOURS are CONFIRMED

9. OFFLU
Established in 2005 as joint OIE-FAO network of expertise on avian influenza
2009 – extended its mandate to cover all ‘animal influenzas’
Includes experts in swine and avian influenza, now linking with other networks including equine influenza

10. OFFLU Objectives Share and analyse material and data
