- W3143146961 abstract "I was very interested in the paper by Fernández et al. in the February issue of the Transactions,1 from two points of view: the very interesting analysis of cholera, which is a significant public health problem in Zambia, and the issue of international collaboration, or lack of it. I brought this paper to the attention of the Editorial Board of the Medical Journal of Zambia at our last meeting on 18 May 2009, and without exception the members present were concerned that this paper does not include any Zambian authors. We would be grateful for an explanation of how these data were collected and analysed outside Zambia without the apparent participation of any local health care workers or academics. The rather retrogressive attitude which this paper appears to represent, that local participants are simply not required for research in Africa, should surely be a thing of the past. Currently, agencies in the USA and EU, development agencies of every origin, the Wellcome Trust, the publishers of the BMJ, Lancet and NEJM, and many others, are working strenuously to improve research capacity and publication capacity in Africa, so why did the authors of this paper feel it unnecessary to involve local academics in the collection or analysis of these data? There is a medical school in Zambia with a Department of Community Medicine and there is a committee of the Ministry of Health which deals with epidemics, so why were they not involved? No Zambian academic or health worker is even acknowledged. We would like to ask the authors of this paper to explain why the opportunity for genuine international collaboration was not taken." @default.
