    Assessment of Current Technologies and Treatments for Emerging Infectious Diseases: Are WePrepared?The purpose of this assignment is to critically examine existing biotechnology applications thatare used to make advances at the molecular level in biosciences research used for diseaseprevention or mitigation.

    Apply your knowledge of cellular and molecular processes and current laboratory techniquesand therapies to effectively propose a plausible effort to mitigate the next outbreak. Emerginginfectious diseases are a global public health concern. Diseases that were once endemic toother countries such as Zika virus, SARs-Co-V2, and other pathogens have now becomeresident agents of infection in the U.S.

    Research and compare the current technologies and treatments that are currently available todetect and treat these agents. Also consider reported disease outbreaks that are currentlytrending not necessarily in the U.S. but abroad. Ask are we prepared against these agents ofinfection and if not what technologies and treatments do we need? Include three pathogens toconduct your assessment for detection capabilities and treatment- two pathogens that havecaused epidemics in the U.S. and one that has caused an epidemic currently outside the U.S.

    Follow the outline for the technology assessment. Use it as a checklist.

    ****Include the following information in your research project:****

    Abstract- a short summary of the entire assessment; a snapshot.

    Research Paper-

    Introduction-

    Explain to the reader what you are going to cover in your paperInclude an impact statement- Why is this important?Supporting factors-

    Provide background information on the selected pathogens of interestInclude the country of origin, first reported case, first reported death, number of reportedcases, number of deaths (All three pathogens should have this information)

    Include first reported case in the US, first reported death, number of reported cases, number ofdeathsProvide background information on the technology or research used to the detect eachpathogenInclude vendor (the company that makes the device or application)Identify the stakeholder interested in the technology, i.e. the end-user (who’s interested inacquiring the technology/ application or research?)

    Provide background information on the treatment or therapeuticInclude the vendor (the company that makes the drug or treatment)b. Identify the stakeholder interested in the treatment or therapeutic, i.e. the end-user (who’sinterested in acquiring and using the treatment or therapeutic?)Compare and contrast the current technology/ application/treatment/therapeutic/ research. Canthey be modified or if there’s nothing available what is needed? Make suggestions.Make a table to include pathogens of interest and match to applicable technology/research andtreatment/therapeutic/researchConclusion- summary of your paper and provide your perspectiveResearch Paper Format Requirements-
