ProMED - THE PROGRAM FOR MONITORING EMERGING DISEASES
=====================================================
*Sponsored by the Federation of American Scientists*
*Network operated by HealthNet/SatelLife of Boston, Mass., USA*

A central goal of ProMED is to establish a direct partnership among
scientists concerned with emerging infectious diseases in all parts of the
world; building the appropriate networks to encourage communicating and
sharing information is a key objective. Reporting of incidents or outbreaks,
infectious disease problems of emerging interest, and discussions on how to
improve surveillance and response capabilities (including needs at the local
level) are especially encouraged.

ProMED-mail invites and welcomes the participation of all interested colleagues,
whether or not they are health workers.

To subscribe to the *free* ProMED-mail electronic conference (which is
moderated),
 send e-mail to:

        majordomo at usa.healthnet.org

Leave the Subject line blank (or put anything you like there), and write

        subscribe promed

in the text space.  You will receive an automatic reply with information on
how to access past files.  From then on, you will receive the messages
posted to the ProMED conference as they are received, and can post messages
to the network.

If you prefer to receive a digest of several messages together, instead of
multiple daily messages, make that message

        subscribe promed-digest

If you prefer to receive only reports and updates of current outbreaks,
without discussion, reviews, announcements, make that message

        subscribe promed-edr

You can cancel these at any time by sending
        unsubscribe promed       or
        unsubscribe promed-digest    or
        unsubscribe promed-edr.

We welcome your participation in ProMED, and invite your support of ProMED's
mission to develop and promote effective early warning systems for emerging
infections.
