Global diseases are those like cancer, which are widespread in both rich and poor
countries. These diseases have received less attention in development debates over intellectual property because they are not specific to developing countries. However, this does
not mean that they are not important causes of disability and mortality among the poor.
According to a 1999 World Health Organization report, cancer and heart disease together
account for 15 percent of all ‘disability adjusted life years’ lost in the low and middleincome countries (a statistic that combines quality of life and mortality). This is four times
higher than the disease burden due to malaria. ‘Rich country’ diseases also cut across the
income spectrum. A recent survey in India found that cancer and heart disease were the
cause of 12 percent of all adult deaths in the bottom quintile of the wealth distribution.

The Global Disease Detection Program (GDD) is a program for developing and strengthening global public health capacity to rapidly identify and contain disease threats from around the world. The program comprises both field-based and CDC-headquarters components. CDC currently operates 7 GDD Regional Centers in China, Egypt, Kenya, Guatamala, India, Kazakhstan, and Thailand. These centers work with the host country and the region to develop core capacities in the following areas: emerging infectious disease detection and response; training in field epidemiology and laboratory methods; pandemic influenza preparedness and response; zoonotic disease research and containment at the human-animal interface; health communication and information technology; and laboratory systems and biosafety.
