The 2006 Models of Excellence Lecture Series engages public health practitioners in discussions about historical and contemporary public health events and extract lessons for future preparedness. Dr. Ira Schwartz and Dr. Ali Khan co-present the lecture, What’s the Buzz about Vector Control Issues, which showcases both Malaria as the ‘Historical Issue’ and the current parasitic threats such as Hanta Virus, SARS and West Nile Virus as ‘Contemporary Issues’. Each presenter describes the issue at hand and identifies lessons learned for public health practitioners today or in the future. Dr. Kathy Miner moderates this session and facilitates a discussion intended to elaborate on the lessons for preparedness.
