Welcome message from the Chair
Dr. Abdullatif Alkhal
Chair, Qatar International Infectious Disease Conference
Building on the success of the 1st Qatar Infectious Disease Conference in 2023, which provided a great opportunity to learn the latest developments in the field and to network with friends and colleagues, we are planning our 2nd conference for the year 2024. The conference will cover the hottest topics and the latest development in the field of infectious disease and will offer another great opportunity to hear from top regional and international experts and to network and exchange knowledge, stories and experiences.
As infectious disease specialists, we have great challenges ahead of us which we can tackle only if we come together. Covid-19 is still circulating around the globe and sickening people more than the flu; the global climate change is constantly changing the epidemiology and geographic spread of an increasing numbers of infectious disease including vector borne viruses. Wars and conflicts in our region resulting in big movement of the affected population is facilitating the spread of food and waterborne infections more than ever before, to name a few.
