It is a pleasure to welcome delegates to the 2024 World Conference on Infectious Diseases. We have recently emerged to a large extent from a very costly and deadly viral pandemic, which was brought under some level of control by tireless efforts of a dedicated scientific community.  Having personally lived through the pandemics of polio, HIV/AIDS, H3N2 Hong Kong flu, Asian flu, and being historically aware of the cholera pandemic, Spanish flu, bubonic plague, and Justinian plague afflictions, which in total victimized hundreds of millions worldwide, we can be assured that new infectious threats will emerge and old diseases will reemerge and continue to evolve. New treatment modalities are required since these viruses, bacteria, and other virulent microorganisms will mutate and infect more quickly than humans can respond. Only open communication that shares information from many scientific perspectives will minimize the cost of human lives and economic burdens. The WCID is one outlet for such information to be transmitted to the community. I wish all a most productive time at this conference.

It is both an honor and a great pleasure to extend a warm welcome to all participants of the World Congress on Infectious Diseases. We find ourselves in an era marked by an escalating global crisis of infectious diseases, highlighting the urgent need for a multidisciplinary approach that bridges basic, clinical, and public health research. This collaborative effort is crucial to enhance our understanding of the expanding pandemic landscape.

In alignment with this imperative, our conference will cover a wide range of research topics, including but not limited to: Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19), advances in medicine and vaccines for COVID-19, strategies for the control and prevention of nosocomial infections, bacterial infectious diseases, comprehensive approaches for the prevention, control, and cure of infectious diseases, and insights into Sepsis/Septicemia.

This congress presents a valuable opportunity for WCID participants, from budding to seasoned researchers, scientists, clinicians, and academicians, to engage with and learn from the latest research findings in the field. We look forward to fostering an environment of knowledge sharing that promises to advance our collective efforts in combating infectious diseases.

Yours Sincerely

Dear Conference Attendees,

It's my pleasure to welcome you to the World Congress on Infectious Diseases 2024. We are all united by a common goal of understanding and combating infectious diseases. This conference serves as a testament to our collective commitment to improving global health. As we delve into the latest research, innovative treatments, and collaborative strategies, let us keep in mind the profound impact our work has on communities worldwide. The challenges are significant, yet our resolve to overcome them is even stronger. The insights and discoveries we share will provide a path forward. I courage each one of you to engage deeply, share openly, and collaborate effectively throughout this conference. Together, we can push the boundaries of science and medicine to create a healthier world for all. Welcome, and let us embark on this remarkable journey of discovery and advancement.

Dear conference attendees, it is with great honor and pleasure that I extend a cordial welcome for the session on 'Bacterial Infectious Diseases,' acknowledging the collective expertise gathered in pursuit of advancing our understanding in this critical domain. The antibiotic era may have fostered an illusion that bacterial infections were subdued, yet bacterial adaptability, notably through biofilm formation, challenges this perception. Additionally, escalating prevalence of acquired antibiotic resistance compels us to acknowledge that we are far from controlling the development of bacterial infections. This session serves as a pivotal platform for the exchange of insights, the presentation of groundbreaking research, and the fostering of collaborative discussions, covering prevalent bacterial diseases such as Meningitis, Pneumonia, Tuberculosis, as well as addressing other significant challenges like Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs), Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs), and zoonotic diseases. As we navigate through the nuances of bacterial infectious diseases, I encourage each of you to actively engage in the discourse. Your presence and contributions are integral to the success of this session, and I am confident that our collective efforts will lead to meaningful advancements in the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of bacterial infectious diseases.

On behalf of the Organizing Committee, I welcome you to WCID2021, where you will have the opportunity to listen to and interact with internationally recognised Speakers on a wide range of topics related with Infectious Diseases. The Congress will be a meeting point that will foster cooperation between colleagues across the research world. I hope you will enjoy the conference and will be able to establish links for future research for years to come.

Dear colleagues

Today the yellow fever epidemic in Angola and Congo, the introduction and rapid extension of Chikungunya first and then Zika in the region of the Americas, epidemics and outbreaks of Cholera in several countries, the meningococcal disease epidemic in Niger, The recent report of a plague epidemic in Madagascar and cases of measles and mumps in several countries just to mention a few examples, make today more than ever necessary research, exchange and constant training.

For this reason we consider the celebration of the World Congress on Infectious Diseases scheduled at Rome, Italy next year during September 09-11, 2021 to be of great importance. Being a great opportunity for valuable researchers and specialists in the field of infectious diseases can share their experiences and strengthen ties of friendship and cooperation
