Dashboards for Pandemics

 The World Health Organization Dashboard for COVID-19 related Recommendations is thoughtfully organized and committed to improvement. 

A thoughtful, committed response should reply with encouragement to listen to others, in their places and spaces. 

  1. How many agencies, communities or groups are the recommendations targeted to? How many agencies, communities or groups feel they need recommendations? 

  2. What is the compliance or adoption rate of the targeted agencies, communities or groups? What recommendation compliance and adoption did these agencies commit to? 

  3. What are the timeframes and points of progress by theme, by target group and by area of work? What timeframes were decided on with agencies, groups and government agreement?  

  4. What is the survey satisfaction and adoption of the proposed categories? What were the trends with write-in comments? 

  5. What are the points for reconvening to discuss rewording or restructuring a recommendation – low compliance or adoption, or non-movement of recommendation within a specific timeframe? What are the challenges, barriers and needs for those wanting to adopt recommendations yet unsuccessful with adoption so far? 

  6. Who is targeted in the “private sector”, and who are the primary communication liaisons? What has the private sector offered in terms of united liaisonship and recommendation implementation? 

  7. What are the specific activities and actions to be taken for recommendation movement? What activities do the agencies, communities and groups need and want? 

  8. Where is the category for “response” for recommendations, should a majority of the targeted groups decline the recommendation? What are the reasons or rationale for various responses? 

  9. What is the action once a recommendation has been bypassed or rejected? How do the agencies, communities and groups know what next step responsibilities are, and have they agreed to the next steps? 

  10. What was the peer review process for the attached publications? How can this be organized to the grid and dashboard? How much does peer review matter to these agencies, communities and groups?  

  11. What is the stakeholder process for recommendations that surpass pandemics, or recommendations that affect major industry on multiple health issues? A significant number of the recommendations on this dashboard apply to many health areas, and application of the recommendation should reach comprehensively into systems. How have stakeholders been tasked with leading at the recommendation table? 

A thoughtful, committed response should reply with encouragement to listen to others, in their places and spaces.

Oxygen

Keeping it simple for oxygen coordination is best accomplished when we're welcomed in.  It’s good to support global leadership in medical oxygen supply management for underserved communities and countries in need.  It’s great to support efforts that strengthen individual country leadership toward national strategies on medical oxygen supply management.   Both require some tread into a country’s vulnerabilities on medical needs.  Let’s tread meaningfully and in a way that assures a welcome back.  Detail the coordinating agencies or government departments responsible for medical oxygen supply receipt. Meet with health administrators.  Detail a country’s current policies, compare with a global review and detail opportunities for policies on oxygen management. Is medical oxygen supply and/or maintenance an ongoing regulatory component within a country? What would it take to sharpen regulatory efforts? Is medical oxygen supply a component to ongoing emergen...

Responsiveness

Responsiveness in healthcare affects optimal management, psychological safety, physical safety, customer service and quality.  Responsiveness is often dropped, or not followed through, or placed as a one-time play.  When considering others’ places and spaces, healthcare must anticipate that the gaps left by “no reply” get filled in. One way or another, a lack of response gets substituted. Often, misinformation gets deputized. As healthcare becomes increasingly interested in “infodemics” [1] and misinformation, healthcare must first take responsibility and ownership of responsiveness.  In others places and spaces, and in healthcare’s own, there must be ownership of:    How often concerns are raised to the organization, and to global health, by experts in medical fields? In other fields? How often concerns are raised by general members of the public?  The types of concerns raised Potential algorithms or classifications, so that critical reviews can occur in a...

Experts and Regulation

For all the global health coordination, and all the international research collaboration, there is no movement toward scope of practice, labor regulation, prescribing regulation or biotechnological responsibility standardization.  We should encourage measured progress toward accountability in medicine regulation, and we should do so with countries at the table.   What are the medical professions, credentials, approved education and scope of practice in healthcare, per country? What are the community healthcare worker (CHW) roles if allowed, per country? What would countries like to see adjusted or mirrored?  Which procedures are allowed for each healthcare profession? What are the rationales, inclusive of supply and demand and access issues?  What are the differences in approvals and guidelines for medicine safety, and for who can prescribe what? What is the healthcare political climate in various countries and how does this affect decision making? What analytic...
