摘要

Despite modern preventive medicine efforts, diarrhea rates remain high, and the impact of illness remains a threat to military efficiency. Novel enteric disease research programs designed to decrease the impact of diarrhea on the military mission are needed. The development of enteric vaccines and appropriate treatment regimens remain a top priority.A recent report from the Institute of Medicine concluded that "Despite the tremendous strides that have been made in public health, the control of infectious disease, and preventive medicine during the past century, infectious agents remain a substantial threat to the operational capacity of military forces at the onset of the new millennium" (pg. 9) [1], Because the United States currently has more than 140,000 troops deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq in support of the global war on terror, it is critical that military health care planners and providers have a clear understanding of the current health risks encountered in the region and, most important, the impact infectious diseases can have on military missions.
